1t is a relief to find out that our
old friend Bryan also drinks coffee.
We were afraid he stuck to grape
juice entirely.
But then it will be all right if Bryan
can jolly the Japs along until we can
send the fleet through the Panama

Japs might grab off Frisco about the
time Of the exposition.
Judge Wanamaker of the Ohio SUI
preme court says he favors the re-

That MuIhalI exposure of the in

also our leading anarchists. They
don't use dynamite, but get better
results with dough.
Had it ever occurred to you that
