Bfyas'S EIOquenCe.

William Jennings Bryan was
addressing a political meeting
in Iowa on one occasion when,
it is said, he fairly carried away
his audience by the power of
his oratory. Among those most
impressed by the Nebraskan's
effort was a man known to be
very deaf, but who nevertheless
seemed to be listening with
breathless attention to Bryan,
and who apparently caught
every word that fell from the
speakers lips.
Finally, when a particularly
fervid passage had been deliver
ed by the man from Nebraska
with the effect of elicitlng a
storm of applause from the
audience, the deaf man, as if he
could contain himself no long
er, yelled into the ear of the man
next to him:
"Who is that speakin'?'
civilian Jennings Bryan
shouted the man addressed,
"Who?" roared the deaf man,
still louder.
William Jennings Bryan, OF
Nebraska::" came from the Sec
ond m an in piercing shrek.
well, well!' exclaimed the
deaf man, excitedly, 1T don't
make any difference, after all.
| can't make out a word he or
you are sayin'; but, good gracl-
Gus, don't he do the motions

published in the Tagliche Rundeschau
an appreciation of the voyage made
by the American batleship fleet
round South America, The writer
doubts very much, however, that the
naval strategists at Washington will
advise the feet to return to the At
lantic by the SuCz canal after it has
visited Australia and the PhiHppin"
Islands. Count ReventloW, who is
rather closely in touch with the Ger

demonstration viii be largely lost un-
less it remains in the Pacific until the
Panama canal is completed He com
mCnds however. the wisdom Of Was
