MR.. BRYAN AND THE LIQUOR
QUESTION.

william ]. Bryan will speak 10 Mis-
souri, in support Of the movement for
statewide prohibition, to be voted on
next November, according to an an'
nouncemeut made in Springfield yes!tr-
day by F. u HeffsrnaD, vice.presidert
of the Mlsstud constitutional amend
ment association.
Mr., Bryan returned to Lincoln, Neb.,
yesterday from his South American tilp,
and WAS greeted at the depot BY large
delegst on Of tu'iuess men and members
of bis family. H was very glad to get
back home. America was the best
country ever. he said, aud ell OF the
fauna be gathered were sent him alive.
In statement prepared for the news-
papers, Mr.. Bryan said there was no ex-
cuse for the interpretation OF bis atsi-
tude on the liquor question. He con-
plsined that out OF discussions he bad
printed Of various phsHes OF the question,
an fort bad been made to show that
he was seeking to make prohibition a
national issue. This was not hue, and
be did not, In his time, even expect 1t
to become such an issue, Hs severely
arraigred the political methods OF the
liquor interests, declared that they were
organized purely to advance selfish ir-
terests and hesitsted at nothing. He
said be would not deserve the confidence
reposed In him If be kept silent ''in the
presence Of so gigantic a conspiracy
sgsiurt the home, society, and the
ststs."
He opposes brewers and distillers
writing the liquor lave, ss be does trusts
writing laws to requisite trusts, and says
be stands on q square democratic doc
trIne. His fight is against their domi'
nance 10 politics, and he has no desire
to prevert the use Of liquor under con-
ditIons which relieve its use Of present
evils,

ooNvJoTs ESCAPE ON ENGINE

OONVJOTS ESOAPE On ENGINE
Five train robbers, serving life ser
tences, escaped from the federal prison
near Lesvenswortb, Kansas, early yes-
terdsy. Within short time two of the
men we're recsptured. At IL o'clock the
three Others were surrvuoded In the
brush within q short distance of the
prison, and 1t was believed ell would be
taken.
The break for liberty was made about
8 O'Clock and wss the result of cleverly
planned plot upon the part OF the five
copvicte.
Two OF the convicts were at work 10
the carpenter shop, and the others were
In the tailor shop. A Union Pacific
switch engine had backed into the
prison yard. At the sound of the whistle
the men dashed into The yard and made
toward the engine. Leveliug dummy
guns at the engineer, the men climbed
into the cab aud compelled him to re-
verse his engine.
The engine, with the convict' aboard,
rushed through the west gate into the
opea ccu'try, and soon was speeding
toward the woods.
When the escape became knowp, o
few mi, utes later, the siren whistle at
the prison, which csu be heard for miles,
was sounded as warning to farmers to
be on the lookout. At the same time
heavily armed guards we're placed at the
gates to prevent any further attempt
to escape. Other guards started 10 pur-
suit.
When the engine hsd gone half a
mile from the prison the five men Jumped
of and made for the woods. Two Of
the men, CLARK and Gideon, separated
from the others and soon were captured.

Inc proposed new building of the Fifth
avenue Baptist Church, plans for which
were ilrst made public yesterday, offers
fresh solution to the problem of putting a
large building in place among still larger
buildings without cheap pretentiousness,
but with an outward distinction suggestive
of Its inward dignity.
Inc architects borrow the essential feat

form OF church facade which has its best

IN the tenth century. Three tall arched
windows, with slender columns between, fill
the centre of the front and carry the eye
well UP toward the line of the cornice.
Above these gable is filled with grace
ful arrangement of narrow arches; below
three gables form a portico above the
three entrances to the building. The whole
facade in light stone and marble conceals
