 So ended the hardest and unlnckiest year of fighting experienced by me during my entire career. This may seem like putting it rather strong. but it is an actual fact that look back on this particular time as the most strenuous I have ever known. It was certainly a year of hard luck. If I had not been pretty well convinced that was cut out to be lighter I would have quit the game.

An American player who fulfilled
several London engagements under the
late Sir Henry Irving tells n story OF a
young man employed rs the trngedian's
dresser when Irving was the lessee OF
the I.yceum thcater. The young fellow
had been recommended for the place
BY Garrison. the celebrated wlgmak-
er. Irving was as cxacting IN matters
Of makeup as he was In everything
else relating TO stage equipment, and
he succeeded In impressing GARRISON
with deep sense Of responsibility.
Shortly after his entering upon his
new duties GARRISON called upon his
former employee. As Clarkson had
noticed that he did not get as many
orders for wigs from Irving rs he for
merry did. he had begun to suspect
that the dresser was accountable.

BRYAN. TEXAS, APRIL 6. 1909.
Mr.. BRYAN AND THE LEclsLA
TuaE.

MIR. Bryan Is severely criticised for
his speech before the Legislature yes
terday. Some OF his critics even go
50 far as TO accuse him of impertinent
interference and desire TO dictate In
matters that do not concern him. On
the other hand. we are told that Cover
nor Campbell smiled broadly and no
doubt all OF the administration party
shared In the governors elation.
II is not our province TO Judge be-
tween Mr. Bryan and his critics. but
1t Is not out of place to mention some
circumstances that ought TO be taken
into consideration. Mr.. Bryan did not
thrust his advice on the Legislature; he
came In response TO a unanimous and
cordial invitation with the assurance
tina, he was at perfect liberty TO choose
his own theme and was not 10 be re-
stricted In discussing II In his own
way. Evidently his object was not

genuine bank deposit guaranty law
because II is a demand OF the national

TO do this. and there Is no foundation
for the charge that he was assuming

On the other hand. those who OPP
pose a bank guaranty law on princi-
pie, have right to reject Mr.. organs
advice In doing so they are follow

natives were suspicious and would not

natives funny believed that the figure
on the label was true picture OF what
was inside.

would do in case the national con

this question MIR. Bryan replied. Then

MIR. Bryan has right TO insist on
party loyalty within reasonable limits

ought TO demand the enforcement OF
brass collar methods.

which has already passed the house

Informed to have a well defined OPP

fords real protection. The matter
has not yet been sufficiently discussed
to be well understood by the people
