Hon. ". J. Bryan Defines His Post
tor ON Inrim and Othrr Issnrs.

'''' Nv III fN''l '''''' iN~h'
While the address delivered BY
Hon ". j. Bryan at Dallas today
was one of national Impotence IL
was directed more particular TO the
democrats Of the Lone Star state
Since the Adjournment of the extra
ordinary session of congress thous-
and of Texas democrats have been
laundering around in doubt and
uncertainty as to whether or not
they We're still In the democratic
fold or whether an attempt was be-
ing made by a certain Texas senator
to lure them into a new and strange
political field. One object OF Mr.
Bryan S speech was to show them
the way and that he did so quite
effectually is indicated by tele-
phone message received from Dallas
this afternoon. The speech was gen
timely democratic from the first to
the last word and it will no doubt
afford the junior senator an oppor-
tunity to still further explain his eff
forts to Aldricbize the democrats of
Texas.

In memory of Capt Moses Wad-
dell Mcknight by Camp Winnie Da-
Wis of WaXahachie, Texas.
Colonel Moses Waddell Nc
| Knight, distinguished as an officer
of Forests cavalry was born in
Cannon county, Tennessee, June
%, 1888, son of Alexander and An
ma p. Mcknight, and great grandson
/ of Moses Waddell the famous edu-
Gator and founder and president Of
North Carolina university. He was
graduated at Irving College, near the
Cumberland mountains, in 1858,
and afterward taught school in
/ Hill's Academy, and at Woodbury.,
and while residing at the latter
place read law with Major J. l..
Fare and Charles Ready, gaining ad-
mission to the bar in 1858. Mean
while, in 1855 he had been married
! to the charming daughter of one of
| his legal instructors, Mary A, Fare.
He engaged in the practice of law in
his native state until after the for
nation of the Confederacy. Being of
old Wing stock he opposed secession
and on the night before the election
which decided the withdrawal of
Tennessee he made the last union
speech at the city of Nashville, in
which he stated, however, that
] l. ~
be, and he had no doubt in his own
mind as to that, he would go with
his state, enlist In her army and
fight to the end. True to his pledge,
he enlisted as private in Capt. T.
M. Allison's company of the first
battalion, Tennessee cavalry, June
%, 1861. A few days later he was
elected sergeant-major of the bat
talon. At Jacinto, Miss, on May
IA, 1862, his company was re-enlist-
ed for three years or during the war,
and he was elected captain. When
his battalion and the seventh were
consolidated his company became
Tennessee cavalry, under Col. c. r.
Barteau. This regiment was part of
the brigade of General Bell, under
the great cavalry leader, Nathan b.
Forest. and distinguished in many
famous victories. Captain Mcknight
CALAMITY led the regiment as its tenn
porary commander at the battle o.
Okolana, Miss, in February, 1864,
and was badly wounded in tho left
breast late in the afternoon, but did
not leave the field. In the fight at
Paducah, KY, March rs, 1864, he
again commanded the regiment, and
was stricken down and his head
fearfully crushed by falling chin
ney which had been hit by shell.
Though no had never recovered en-
tirely from the injury, he was agafn
on duty soon and participated In the
great victory at Brice's Crossroads,

THEIR LAZY CLUB.
English Workmen Make Late Corners
Pay For Hardness.

English Workmen Make Late Corners
Pay For Hardness.
In the engineering shops OF GER
tain English firm the workmeu Of a
year or two ago originated what they
called the Lazy club. 1t was entirely
their own idea. which for obvious rea.
sons has received neither recognition
nor financial support from the manage
meDt, but has been the most excellent
means of reducing the number of tate
Corners.
Whenever a work man is more than
five minutes after time he tiuds the
gate locked, and he is not allowed to
enter until the half hour is up.
This half hour is deducted from his
wages. but in addition he has also to
pay to the treasurer of the Lazy club
about 5 cents for coming late
If he is late more than once or so
during n week everybody is aware of
the fact. and the second or third time
he makes his appearance after starting
time he is greeted with a terrific COM
bination of noises produced on any
available material by his fellow work
men.
At certain periods the accumulated
funds of the Lazy club are divided.
not among those who have produced
them, it should be noted, but among
the entire staff equally. Thus the late
workman is made to pay the early
Corners for bis iaZinesS.
The last distribution was Just prior
to a bean feast" and funds accumu-
lated during twelve months were dis
tributed, amounting to over $1.15 n

GREAT LECTURE
BY GREAT MAN
Continued from page ~

to appear of more value to US than
the soul.
He said that because so many
temptations come from the love of
money 1t is well to stop and consider
the laws of accumulation.
Mr.. Bryan then devoted some time
to a detailed discussion OF a mans
ability to collect money from society
and how to wisely spend same Man,
he said, could not collect more mon
ey than he earns. If he does he col
lects money that belongs to some
body else. An honest man will not
want to collect more than he honest
ly earns. Man cannot collect money
except for service rendered. If he
expects to collect large sums he
must prepare for large service. If
young men resolve to collect only a
dollar for a dollars worth of ser
vice they will be saved from life
of dishonesty.
Mr.. Bryan then turned his atten-
ton to a discussion of moral issues
and said that gambling was one of
the worst vices that ever cursed man
kind. He said he liked good horses
but he had never been convinced that
it was right to bet at the race track.
The worst gambling of today, he
said, is on the stock exchange and
board of trade. These places are
training embezzlers and sending out
more suicides than Monte Carlo. The
man who speculates on the board of
trade or stock exchange has no
chance.
In applying the principle of his
subject to government Mr.. Bryan
said that if man is to write par
ty platform he should be associated
closely with the people in order
that he might be in touch with those
questions which were of vital i'm
portance to them. He believed it
necessary to have two parties, but
a man ought not to allow love for
ties. He said that when party be-
came More concerned about winning
than about it's purity corruption
would creep in. He believed a
change for the better had come. The
signs indicate an improvement.
Twelve years ago, he said, big cor
porations contributed to campaign
funds and even the money of widows
and children were used for that pur-
pose, but now we have a law requir-
ing the publicity of the individual
names of contributors. He believed
this sentiment would grow until cor
ruption had forever been banished
from the political parties. He said he
would rather have it said of him
that he gave some impetus to this
movement than to have his name
registered among the names of pres
idents, When We come to select a
standard for the measurement of
government it must be moral
standard. Justice is the basis of the
nations strength, the hope of the
nations perpetuity. When injustice
enters into the governmental fabric
the seeds of decay are sown.
Mr.. Bryan closed his lecture with
denunciation of the doctrine of
preparing for war in time of peace.

Traced to This City

Searching for Dwight E. Clough. who

come to light man hunt. with the al
legged murderer as the quarry. quietly
but relentlessly pursued from one end

ing the jurisdiction of the federal gov
ernment. Wallace has been stopping
at the Grand hotel.
The chase had its beginning when
Etter. who is former city engineer
of Fresno. was found shot to death In
the malarial swamps of the Central
American republic.
Investigation. born Of suspicion
that Etter came to his death at the
hands of Clough. who was his com
panion in a hunt for gold. resulted in
the formal charge of murder being
placed against the latter in the re-
public of Honduras
Since that time the relatives of the
slain man have followed the trail Of
Clough. They have besought the state
department for extradition papers
They have massed evidence to prove
their charge They have sent detect
ives and men OF the law here and
there in the hope that the man whom
they suspect is the murderer may
be taken back to Honduras. there to
be tried for the alleged crime.
For the last two months Attorney
Miles Wallace. acting for Etter's
brothers. has exerted every effort 10
have Clough returned to Honduras for
trial for murder. He laid the matter
before Secretary Root, but nothing
could be done because there is nc

Yesterday Wallace left this city for

he was going to Fresno and then to

HAMMERSTEIN OFFERED
OPERATIC DICTATORSHIP
Merger of Metropolitan and
Manhattan Houses Planned

NEW YORK, Jan. 8.-A movement is
on foot that contemplates the combin-
ing of the forces and the opera houses
of the Metropolitan opera company and
of Oscar Hammerstein under the sole
direction of Hammerstein.
Hammerstein has been approached
by directors of the Metropolitan and
his final answer waits only on the ad-
justment of his Philadelphia difficulties.
The first conference was held at the
home of one of the directors. tw6 weeks
ago. and Hammerstein was asked to
consider taking the dictatorship and to
submit his ideas on the whole scheme.
The basic idea of the contemplated
move is to devote the Metropolitan
opera house to productions of operas
of the Italian and German school in
connection with the Philadelphia opera
house The Manhattan. which has
proved so serious a menace to the Net
ropolitan, would be used entirely for
presenting works of the French school.

BLOOD CURES

Incipient Cases Yield to Treat

CHICAGO, Jan. S-Pigs' blood. med

in the cure of incipient tuberculosis,
according to an announcement made
yesterday by DR.. Daniel E. Ricardo,
lecturer on gynecology and surgery in
the postgraduate medical college.
Ok blood or COW blood also is good,
according to the physician, but he
places the highest value on pigs
blood because the latter contains a
higher percentage of hemaglobin in the
red part of the red blood corpuscIes.

arrived at the same conclusion as DIR.

the blood before they attack the It's
sues of the lungs and other parts of

Ricardo set about experimenting, with
view to discovering a cure.
The results of the experiments were
that blood foods were found to have
great curative powers. 'Impoverish-
ment OF the blood" DR., Ricardo said,
'is the first symptom of tuberculosis.
There is no longer any doubt that
tuberculosis starts in the blood.
have treated from 40 to so cases in
Chicago. and by the last three cases
am convinced of 1t. AT the same time
have experimental with view to
discovering a cure for the incipient
stage of the disease
Il have found pigs blood to be of
the highest value in these cases. The
reason for that is that pigs blood con-
tains more hemaglobin than cow
blood. Swine feed better than cattle
and there is. a heavy strain on the
cows from being milked. Cattle also
are subject.to. tuberculosis. while I
have never heard OF a case of that dis
ease among swine''
