Bryan Fights Losing Battle

The net result of Mr.. Bryan's poll
tical resurrection will be further dis
ruption of the democratic party. He
can get no following from any but
dissatisfied Wilsonites. Any man who

in the ranks of republicans.

ARREST STAMP TO eE som

Inere has been a gbod deal of snan. ulatlon as to the ultimate destination or the worlds greatest collection r- stamps formed by the late Philippe Ia Renotiere, also known as Ferrary. ne uled Tn Switzerland during the war ma bequeathed his stamp collection. when was then and stil lis in Paris. to the Berlin posten museum. Tt ss noS reported on good authority that the French government trustee of alien property has ordered the collection to ,,e put up for public sale as soon as the necessary work of arranging and it can be completed.
 IL IS understood that an offer of lo,OOe,OOO francs .(s3 ,000, ,00O at normal exchange rate) has been reflected. as ;t IS considered that a much larger figure VIII De secured by breaking up the col lection in the auction room. Ferrarv had been collecting stamps for more than half a century, and spent large sums annually on extending his col lecuons. He must have spent rather more than $1. 900 on 1t, and while he was not always discriminating buyer, he secured many great bargains. He had the courage in 1882 to pav $40,000 for the late Judge Philbriek,s collection, which on a modest compu- tation would be worth s25O, 900 today.
 The Ferrary collection contains the historic rarity, the 1-cent British Guiana stamp of 1856, of which only the one copy is known. The stamp has never come upon the open market and 1t is interesting to speculate on what it might fetch. It is a wretched CODY. however, and is not what our conti- mental friends would call a drawing room piece. .'-London Telegraph.
