.BRYAN'S LECTURES
SURPRISE CAPITAL
Westinghouse Didn't Think
Secretary Had TO Take TO
Platform for Living.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE state
ment of Secretary Bryan that. with
his salary of $4,000 as Cabinet Of
ficer, he has to take to the lecture
platform in order to live decently,
caused great establishment in Wash
ington It had been taken for granted
here that Mr.. Bryan was comfortably
fixed with this worlds goods.
Mr.. Bryan has often been referred
to as the highest paid speaker on
the Chautauqua circuit" and it has
been assumed that he has laid by
considerable fortune out of his earn
ings as a speaker and writer. 1t
also has been understood here that
his weekly paper. the Commoner, has
been a paying proposition
His frequent trips in this country
and abroad have been regarded as
confirmation of the reports of his
wealth.
In Washington Mr.. Bryan lives not
ostentatioisly, but on a generous
scale. He and Mrs. Bryan have taken
the Gen. John A. Logan place, which
is a large house with extensive
grounds in a most desirable part of
the city. There he and Mrs. Bryan
have entertained considerably, though
not deliberately, and it had not even
been dreamed in Washington that the
Secretary felt obliged to lecture for
living.

TWO CHURCHES FURNISH
UNITY DEMONSTRATION

FRANKLIN, Ind, July 1--we
have been preaching Christian Union
for years; it is time we were taking
some practical steps toward cultivat-
ing the spirit of union" declared
Judge H. G. Barnett in the Tabernacle
Christian Church here yesterday. He
then proposed that the entire congre-
cation go across the street to the
Presbyterian church and worship as
an evidence of good will and Chris
tian brotherhood.
All of the $50 members of the con-
gregation fell in with the plan, and.
headed by the pastor, the Rev. Will
lam J. Wright, CROSSED to the other
church, They were given hearty
welcome. The two congregations
joined in singing "Blest be the tie
that binds" and the Presbyterian pas
tor, the Rev. w. B. Tyler, insisted on
the Tabernacle pastor assisting in the
service.

When your strongest competitor and
natural enemy recognizes your worth,
1t is time to consider that you have
gained a pretty secure foothold. Ac-
cording to G. w. Bennett, this is
one of the main reasons why the
motor truck must inevitably become
firmly established in the commercial
world. Mr. Bennett points to the ar
rival of the power vehicle through
the fact that an eastern railroad sy-
stem has installed a motor truck to
transport passengers and their bag
gage from one of it's stations to a
summer resort in one of the New
England states.
This fact should so firmly esta blish
the motor truck in the commercial
schemes of the country that no one
can ever again say that it is merely
an experiment, he says. I'VE have
here the unique feature of our choic-
est enemy and most wide-awake COM
petitor taking our product for its own
use. And when such competitors as
those whose business is bound to be
lessened by the general use of the
truck accept the commercial vehicle
as a necessity, there is surely cause
for rejoicing.
THE building of good highways by
railroads in order that farmers may
reach their line with produce is not
new by any means, but the actual
purchase of motor truck by rail-
road is new and therefore very i'm
portant. | believe that within the
next few years we will see railroads
operating fleets of motor trucks, just
as they now maintain horse and
wagon systems for delivering freight

promptly.
1t has not taken long for the florists
to see the advantages of the motor
truck over the horse. These men
were the first to see where time
the all-important factor in their BUSH
ness-could be saved and hauling ex-
penses materially reduced by the
substitution of motor trucks over
horses
All perishable products have to
move reasonably fast from the pro-
ducer to the consumer, and this is
particularly true with flowers, where
a delay of even a few hours often
means a big loss to the shipper.
The florists who hauls his plants
to market or shipping point will
find that he can make two trips with
a motor truck in the same time con-
sumed by a team of horses in making
one, and should he find it necessary
to make steady hauls the motor
truck will keep going day and night,
while team will be used up in a
short time.
Before adopting motor trucks it
was necessary for the florists to start
to market long before daybreak and
the best part of the day was gone
before he reached home in the after
noon. The motor truck allows him to
leave later in the morning, dispose
of his goods and get back home in
time to spend many valuable work
ing hours before night.
There are innumerable advantages
the motor truck has over the horse,
and it is only question of short
time before the horse will be Curl
osity at the different market centres
throughout the country.

HOTEL UP THIRTY-SEVEN
YEARS NEVER OPENED

NEW YORK, July IA hotel that
never registered a guest, that never
sold a drink or served a meal-that
in fact never even opened its doors
although it stood for thirty-seven
years on one of the main thorough
fares leading into New York city,
passed out of existence when a gang
of workmen started In to demolisb
the Centennial Hotel. in Thompson
avenue, Long Island City.
1t was built at the time of the Cen
tenniaI exhibition in Philadelphia in
1876, in the belief that Philadelphia
would not be able to accommodate
all corners and that the overflow
would have to seek hotels in New
York and across the river in Long
Island City. But the crowds never
came.
