WOn1en'S Faces Present.
Picture of Emotions

One woman was Mrs. William Jen-
nings Bryan, whose husband was in the
thick Of the fray that was raging; the
other was Mrs. William Howard Taft,
at whose husband the collected fury of
all Democrats is hurled.
They presented a study interesting in
the extreme. The one in royal purple: {:
the other in gray, they sat through the
major portion of the Ibng session and
hung upon every uttered word and every
outbreak that told a story or adorned
the tale OF the fieetins nlstory-wrftinE
that was in progress.
Mrs. Taft held the high court that be-
longs to the first lady Of the land Mrs.
Bryan held the attention that comes to
one whose husband has been FIRST in
campaigns that made veterans.
As women weep and pray while their
menfolk go forth to battle, these two
women typified the spirit Of a compo-
site picture OF women and of war.
Mrs. Taft sat to the left of the speak
ers stand; Mrs. Bryan directly behind
it. As her husband hotly attacked the
financial stronghold Of the country in
its political aspect. she buried her face
in her hands and sat, head bowed, with
every evidence OF deep emotion. Tnen
she recovered her upright position and
sat intently watching the dominant fig-
ure Of the hour as he pounded away
at the big men Of money. There was
strain evident in every line.
Mrs. Taft sat in the center OF her
court circle. divested OF the purple tailor
jacket and chatted with those near her.
She laughed heartily when Roosevelt
came in for a little drubbing at the
hands OF speakers, but the instant VIII
liam Howard ~Tafts name was men
toned. the contour Of her face hardened
and she gave every visual evidence Of
displeasure
And the opera glasses turned from one
to the other.
