William Jennings Bryan Succumbs Yery Suddenly From Apoplectic
 Stroke Sunday Afternoon

public career of thirty two years which began with the famous cross of gold speech in 1896. Though thrice Democratic candidate fol President, Bryan attained his high est public office with the appoint ment to Secretary of State by Will son.
 Mrs. Bryan announced that the Commoner would be buried at Arlington national cemetery, privilage which his rank of colonel in the Spanish American war en- titled him to.
 A spot on the high slope of Arlington cemetery overlooking the capitol near the monument of the dead sailors of the battleship Maine has been tentatively chosen as the resting place of the commoner.
 The body lay in state from to , o'clock Tuesday afternoon in the Rhea county court house yard, this arrangement having been made at the suggestion of Mrs. Bryan to give the citizens of Dayton a better opportunity to view the remains.
 It began it's long journey to the national capital early Wednesday morning when the bronze casket in which the commoner lay was re- moved from the Rogers residence.

WANTS 200 TONS OF
 ALASKA BLUEBERRIES

A message was received Tuesday morning by c. c. Mundy from a Seattle fruit and produce associa- tion asking that he send sample box of Wrangell blueberries on the first boat The message stated that the association could handle 200 tons at six cents pound, and that small berry pickers out from Seattle average 250 pounds per day by beating bushes and knock ing berries on to canvas and clean ing the berries later.
 It requires but a moments fgur ing to find that 25O tons of berries at six cents per pound would enrich this community by $24,000.00. While it Is improbable that such quantity could be supplied from Wrangell the yield here is heavy enough to make such a venture very we'll worth while.
 Blueberries grow in profusion all over the hillsides around Wrangell. They are particularly delicious on account of climatic conditions and the rich soil and the quality is considered to be much superior to the blueberries growing in the dryer climate of the states.
 MT. Mundy expects to have all details arranged shortly for market ing the berries and will then send out a call for pickers.

Buchanan Party
 On WayAHome
 With Jack Miner

Seventy-one boys ranging in age from II to 19 years, comprising the Buchanan tour were aboard the Princess Louise in port here southbound last Friday evening. Included in the party were Jack Miner, the great Canadian na- turalist, and Dr. John A. Lenfesty. who was looking after the physical condition of the boys. MT. Buchan- on came north with the boys but left them at Lake Atlin and went on down the Yukon for an extend- ed trip through the interior leaving Uncle Jack" Miner in charge ot the boys.
 The Buchanan party set out from Detroit on July and con tinued by easy stages across the continent by way. of Canada to Vancouver. At that point, the party took passage on the steamer Princess Charlotte, visiting at the ports along the route to Skagway From thence a trip was made over the White Pass & Yukon railroad and to the Atlin country, one Of the most beautiful spots in the Northland. The party returning to Skagway took passage on the Princess Louise to Seattle. Their itinerary arranged that they should go to Portland from Seattle and then East by way of Montana. visiting Butte and Bozenean, and arriving at Detroit August '.
 In 1923 MT. George Buchanan Detroit business man inaugurated unique tour for Detroit boys. The arrangement under which the trip was made was for the boys to partially earn their own way paying one-third of the cost of the trip, their parents paying a third and MT. Buchanan paying the re- maining third of the cost. Forty six boys made the tour that year. Last year the tour did not include Alaska. The total cost of the trip arranged for the boys this yea was $375 per boy.
 In 1926 or 1927 MT. Buchanan hopes to lead a group to the in- teresting spots of Europe and is now making arrangements for the trip. It is his desire. however. that the boys "See America First. ''
