Dayton, Tenn-William Jennings
Bryan died suddenly while he slept in
the afternoon at the residence of
Richard Rogers here. Apoplexy, prob
ably aggravated by indigestion, Is said
to have been the cause of death.
Bryan was sixty-five years of age.
Apparently In perfect health, full Of
plans to make a nationwide fight for
laws protecting the Bible against the
teaching Of evolution, Mr.. Bryan went
to his room for nap after a hearty
meal.
Mrs. Bryan sent the family chauf-
feur, who also acted as companion to
Mr.. Bryan, to awaken him.
Found Dead In Bed.
The chauffeur found Mr.. Bryan ly.
ing in an awkward position on the
bed, as If he had fallen while trying
to rise. There was no sign of heart
action.
Physicians were then summoned.
They found that Mr.. Bryan had been,
dead for some minutes.
Mrs. Bryan was in wheel chair on
the porch when she learned that her
husband was dead. She was overcome
with grief. According to their init
mates, no more devoted couple ever
lived.
Devoted Couple.
Up to the time of her illness Mrs.
Bryan had made her one object in life
the comfort and care of her husband,
and since she has been an invalid Mr..
Bryan's tenderness toward her has
been most striking.
Her consolation in his sudden death
was that 1t took place at time when
he was happiest.
II am glad that he died without
PAIN" she said
Mr.. Bryan was to have left Dayton
shortly for Knoxville, where he was
to make two addresses on the Scopes
trial and to outline his idea of a ma
tional campaign to arouse the people
to the danger In which he believed the
Christian religion stands today.
Last Triumphal Tour.
Less than twenty-four hours before
his death the Commoner spoke to a
great crowd at Winchester, Tenn. He
was In fine form. He delivered stir
ring speech and took delight in the
applause and In the evident affection
and admiration In which the crowd
held him.
Returning from Winchester, Mr.
Bryan's train was like his famous cleo
ton special of 1895. From the rear
platform he made speech after speech
at each stop, and the crowds cheered
him wildly and kept the train until its
schedule was thoroughly disjointed.

months ago. when Mr.. Bryan was pass
ing through Washington, the President
had him to lunch. Though different in
almost every conceivable respect. the
two men seemed to have what seemed
sometimes to observers to amount TO
an attraction for each other.
Mr.. Coolidge could stand for the high
tariff or any other issue which Bryan
thought pernicious, without creating In
Bryan's mind any thought of criticism.
In the same way Mr.. Coolidge was al
ways very soft spoken when 1t came
to speaking of Bryan

The inventor blamed a nervous radio

AMBASSADOR TO JAPAN DIES
e. A. Bancroft Suffers Fatal Relapse
After Illness Lasting Three Weeks.

Tokio-Edgar Addison Bancroft,
American ambassador to Japan, died
at Karuizawa.
Death was the result of a duodenal
ulcer. The ambassador had been held
to his bed for three weeks. DR.. Ikeda,
who was at his bedside, said Mr.. Ban
croft died peacefully.
Edwin L. Neville, first secretary of
the American embassy, will be charge
d'affaires, pending appointment of a
new ambassador.
1t is probable the Japanese govern
ment will tender the use of battle
ship to convey the body to the United
States.

Improvement of Roads

In our country. the issue of good
roads has passed the point of contro-
versy. Our roads now have not only
the dimensions of great length. but
also the dimensions of greater width
for ever-increasing traffic. and Of
greater thickness to bear the heavier
loads.
The public is now on wheels and
wherever the question of good roads
is raised we find the public decisively
expressing itself in favor of steady
development.

Shock TO President

of the death of William Jennings
Bryan. While carefully making no
comment on the legal controversy
which marked the last phase of the
picturesque and spectacular life Of the
Commoner. the President has been fol-

Mr.. Coolidge has always been keenly
interested in Mr.. Bryan. Just two

MEXICAN LAWS.
STUDIED BY
HUGHES
u. S. Scrutinizes Possible
Effect Of Proposed
Land Legislation.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 49,
R-The attention OF State Depart
ment officials again has been directed
to the celebrated article % Of the Mexi.
can constitution, whose possible effect
on American interests in Mexico has
been a subject of long controversy.
The department Is scrutinizing pro.
posed new Mexican law which would
compel all Mexican formed corpora
tions owning land throughout the coun-
try to become at least 61 per cent
Mexican as to stock ownership, and all
Mexican corporations operating within
30 miles of the international frontiers
and 25 miles of the scascoast To be-
come 81 per cent Mexican as 10 stock
holders within three years.
The new law is an enactment OF pro-
visions OF article q and is couched in
terms which are regarded by American
Oil interests as giving the article that
retroactive effect against which the
United States has protested. The only
possible market for American holdings
would be to Mexican citizens, inevita-
bly, reducing the holdings to fraction
of their actual value. while application
of 100 per cent Me1icanization along
the border would conceivably wipe out
such vast American interests as the
Cerritos and the Cananea Consolidated
Copper. These holdings, it is argued
by the protesting interests, we're &C.
auired in good faith before article -
was adopted in 1917 and should be
protected.
No one here will comment in any
way, or undertake to say what the
effect may be on the pending negotia-
tons for a treaty Of peace and amity
with Mexico. when these negotiations
opened months ago. Secretary Hughes
reminded Mexico Of the apprehension
felt here over the land ownership pro-
visions Of article %, and added.
1T these provisions are carried into
effect retroactively, the properties OF
American citizens will be confiscated
on a great scale. This would consti-
tute an international wrong OF the
xravest character, and this government
could not submit TO its accomplish
ment."

Troppcr Made Sudden
Change in Fight Vieto

Tradition has it that most of the
early trappers operating through the
Rocky mountains were serious char
acters. Such is far from the case,
though. Many of them took great
pride in exaggerating accounts of
what they had encountered on their
trips A few even had a slant on life
that would make a Mark Twain en-,
vious, says contributor to the From
tier.
Joseph l.. Meek was one of the best
known of these frontier humorists.
One of his experiences which is gen
orally credited concerns an attack
made on his party by band of hos
tile Indians. While stopping for q
rest the Indians were sighted as they
were in the act of charging the trap
pers. The redskins were but a few
hundred yards away and mounted. The
whites lost no time in mounting their
animals and beating a hasty retreat
Meek, however encountered some
trouble with his mule which refused
to bulge.
Boys, stand your ground, boys !"
he screamed. "Stand your ground!
We can whip 'em. Stand your ground |"
But the trappers failed to heed
Meek and put all the territory pos
sible between themselves and the on
rushing Indians About that time
Meek's mule, seeming to realize its
own danger, set its pedal eXtren7ities
in motion. Within a short time Meek,
astride the mule, had caught UP with
the rest Of the party. Another min
ute he passed them. Then he turned
in his saddle and shouted bac. over
his shoulder, "COme on, boys We
can't fight 'em. Come on, boysI Come

Houu Paint Preserves

Most people paint their homes for
the sake of good looks. But houses
should primarily be painted for the
sake of preserving the wood, which is
very porous. When the wood was
still in the tree state the pores were
filled with sap, and when cut the sap
died out, leaving the pores open. If
the wood should be left in the unpro-
tected state, minus its mark, fungi
and moisture soon would begin to rot
and destroy It, SO when painted, the
paint penetrates the pores and forms,
when dry, a tough, elastic coating,
which is anchored" to the surface by
countless little "hooks" that extend
into pores of the wood, and this
coating or film preserves the wood by
protecting 1t from those things which
otherwise would quickly and surely de-
stroy it.
