vi ew lors city to rsryan and Sewall und voicing: the denunciation of gold and the corresponding adulation of silver they touched on State matters, denouncing the jiemes law ami tne last Republican Legislature, indorsing the State .Democratic ticket and platform, called upon the United States government to investigate alleged cruelty to American citizens convicted of political offenses and confined in British prisons and closed with a declaration that the national administration should take prompt steps to investigate "the reported imprisonment and butchery of noncomhatant American citizens in Cuba. and. if facts warrant it, demand immediate re dress. ' At three, minutes past 8 o'clock a com motion in tne rear or the stage sent a fresh buzz of excitement through the crowd, and an instant later tne ponce plowed a nar row pussuway which revealed the figure of Air. Bryan. On either side of him were Artnur Hewaii. the vice presidential candidate, and George F. Williams, just nominated by three conventions for the governorship of Massachusetts. The ensuing scene "as rarely been equaled in old Tammany. The crowd fell into a frenzy, and the tremendous volume of sound which began then ended exactly seven minutes later and the air was kaleidoscopic with waving hats , and flags. Mr. Oryan'M Speech. During the. demonstration Mr. Bryan stood erect;. gazing directly before him. There was a gratified smile on his lips and a gleam of joy in his eyes. Eventually he raised his hand and secured silence. Then he said: "ws in this hall once before. It was on the I-ourth of July, when I was permitted to take part in one of your celebrations and I am not surprised that an organization which reads every year the Constitution of American, Independence gives enthusiastic support to a platform which a-res for financial independence." This was received with tremendous applause and when it subsided Mr. Bryan proceeded, saying: "Before addressing myself on the paramount issues of this campaign I desire to refer to the language used here in this city by the ex-President of the knitted States, Benjamin Harrison. (Hisses ana groans.) My friends, please refrain from expressing your ill feeling. I quote n is words because words corning from so high a Republican source ought to be considered, evtn if you cannot agree with .?"? Let me read you wnat he says: 'In my opinion there is no issue presented by the Chicago platform more important and vital than the Question they have raised regarding the power and duties of the national courts and national executive. The defense of the Constitution aPofhe intrity of the Supreme Court Of the United States and of the President's powers and duty to enforce all the laws or the United States without obtaining the rail or consent of the Governor of any State is an important and living issue in this campaign., Tariff and coinage will be of little moment if our constitutional government is overthrown. . "My friends. T call your attention to the Tact that ex-President Harrison asserts that our platform raises a question and mat constitutional government is in dan ger, n tnat was true we might well turn irom the discussion of any other question to consider anything which menaces the vonunuation ot constitutional government C e ,s nolmnK ,n the Chicago piatin men. menaces tne constitutional gov vrnrrieiu. 1 cnauenge you to read that platform and find in that platform a single iiihi jusuries tne language used by the ex-President. Our criticism of the ouprt-me i,ouri is not as severe as the criti c-ism or tne supreme Court in the platform po,n.whJLflh Abraham Lincoln was elected Jn ISM). The words I have used in regard lu me oupiraie touri nave not been as severe as' the incu:ifo nuofl K.r Av.r..i.nn, ineOin both before his e'ection and after jiih eireuon. tnere is notnin;? m our platform concerning the invasion of the States toy federal troops that approaches in force i., hid piatiorm or iwi upon " in ,ui, Liiuuuin was elected. There is jijiiuug mat nas oeen said in the p atform "J "" viuiuiuttn: llld L JUMllltfS Hie CliaTgC that the Democratic party is against the constitutional government or would interfere with the preservation of law and or- . "If Mr. Harrison wants to raise the question of the survival of our government I m willing to meet him on that proposition Those who are the most fearful that there will be a lax enforcement of law are the very persons who would suffer most if the laws were enforced. The very persons who are afraid the law will be violated with impunity are the ones who hav viniato v, Jaw with impunity. If Mr. Harrison wants to raise the question of the survival of our institutions. I will -tell him that the great trusts of this courltry. which are support ing ine rtepumican ticket, are a. erentor irienaee to our government than anything else. The coal trust sends its representa tives to sit by every fireside and exact tribute from- those who keep warm. The oil trust sends its representatives to collect a tribute from those who use light. The various trusts of this country, with lit representatives are collecting tribute from the people, and when we pro"sn,"sl Ji tney can us disturbers of the peace and Anarchists. I am . opposed to trusts. If I am elected as an executive I shall use all the power I have to drive every trust out of existence. If present laws are not sufficient to meet this evil, I, if elected, will recommend such laws as will. If the Constitution of the Ignited States is so constituted as to prevent any interference with the operation of the trusts I shall recommend such Bmend.ment to tne Constitution as will permit it, Mr. Bryan proceeded with a severe arraignment of "trusts, stock gamblers and money grabbers." and continued: "I understand that a distinguished citizen of this fctate, the Hon. Chauncey Depew. I understand that he also believes that my election would be dangerous to the country. There is one advantage in having Mr. Depew against me, and that is if I am elected he will not come down and tell me that he has' helped elect me and want me to get rid of that; plank In the platform which declares for the arbitration of differences between railroads and their employes There is another advantage which i nhall derive from his onposltion if I am elected. He will not come down to, Washington and want me to :jse executive influence against the bill that passed the Senate which attempted to protect the people from the employment of federal troops and by Injunction. My friends, there Js one great consolation that I find in the opponents that have arrayed themselves y.galnst me. and that is if I am not to have their aid in the campaign. I won't have their domination after the campaign is over." - CROWDS 'DISAPPOINTED. Sir. Brjnn XVnm Inable to Talk to the People on the Street. When Mr. Bryan had finished; he showed Kigns oi exnaustion. Mr. Bewail, the candidate" for Vice President, was introduced, and while many of the audience were leaving, made , a few remarks of thanks for the reception. Many people crowded upon the stands to shake hands with the candidates. Notwithstanding the steady downpour there was an Immense assemblage in front of Tammany Hall and a sea of umbrellas met the gaze of those who had the temerity to brave the storm and emerge from the comfortable committee rooms out on the two stands erected on each side of the entrance to the wigwam. A band of music helped to entertain the drenched hut enthusiastic people who listened to a brief address by Congressman Livingston, of Georgia, and Congressman Amos Cummings on the advantages of the free coinage of silver. The large crowd seemed to think -that IMr. Bryan, notwithstanding the elements, would not depart from Tammany Hall without making an address, however brief, and they bravely stood their ground till it was about 9:30 o'clock, when Mr. Bryan finished his address in the hall of the old wigwam, and, escorted by ex-Commissioner of Charities Thomas Brennan and Senator Uernard F. Martin, made his way to the council chamlKT on the ground lloor, accompanied by vice presidential candidate Sewall. Both Bryan and Sewall seemed worn out and the heat inside the hall appeared to huve affected both gentlemen. It was evident that the oratorical efforts of Mr. TiVUn within tha rou fnnr .1.,,.., V,.-,. ,lnnA jBoms mischief and there seemed no doubt that even though the weather had been lavorable he would have been unable to carry out his intention of speaking at the other stands. After a brief rest. Police lnupector Brooks, with some difficulty, cleared a passageway for the candidate Mio led him out on the east stand in front of the hall. As soon us the crowd caught tight of Mr. Bryan a mighty shout went up, umbrellas were frantically waved and cheer after cheer was given the candidate.' Mr. Bryan, however, had made up his mind to make no remarks. He simpiy acknowledged the greeting by taking off his hat to the cheering crowd, after which he crossed the hall to the west stand and repeated the bowing and was given another ovation. After this he and Mr. Sewall were led to their carriages and driven to the Union Square stands. v Before the rain began the plaza In front Kit the iolice station in Union Square, where Mr. Bryan was scheduled to make

a speech, was packed with thousands. This meeting had been organized by laboring men. and a host of labor orators succeeded in keeping up a continuous talk for an hour and a half before Mr. Bryan arrived. The rain, however, drove much of the crowd away. Many sought shelter along the buildings and in the doors of houses. A diversion occurred on the appearance of Franklin Quinby. a young man who bears a striking resemblance to Bryan. The crowd, which took Mr. Quinby for the candidate, poured again into the square and cheered for five minutes before the error was discovered.

When Mr. Bryan's carriage drove up it was followed by hundreds from Fourteenth street. The candidate went into the police station, where he remained for two min utes. In the meantime John Js. Bogart. who was chairman, told the oeonle that Mr. Bryan waa in a condition approaching pnysical co.iapse, and added that It would in1 impossible for him to make a soeech. 'Let's see him anyway," shouted the crowd. Mr. Hrvan at length appeared and mounted the speakers' stand. The rain was still falling in torrents, but the mass of umnrellas in the square were lowered. He took off his soft felt hat and bowed several times in acknowledgment of the n'.audits but he did not say a word. After staying on tne stana ror aoout a minute he re turned to his carriage and was driven nff. From S o'clock until nearly 10 o'clock a corps oi speaners neid about 1.000 persons at the stand in Union Square in anticipation of hearing Mr. Brvan speak. The stand was erected near the Washington statue, and the wind and rain swept across me exposeu square at a tremendous rate. State Senator Guy presided, and one of tne nrst speakers who tried to keep the crowd in good humor was Congressman McMillin. of Tennessee. A roar of applause aim iKugnier greeted tne speaKer s statement that the money in which Washington and Jefferson paid their bills was good enough for him. Senator Guy shortly before 10 o'clock announced that Mr. Bryan had become exhausted and would not ap-i-ji. jir. j-ii v-un went to nis notel and at midnight left for the South.

BRAZIL, Ind., Sept. 29. Hon. John L. Griffiths, of Indianapolis, and C. E. Tibbies of Chicago, addressed a large Republican gathering at the rolling mill annex last evening. Notwithstanding the downpour of rain numerous farmers came in and at tended the meeting. Prior to introducing the speakers, Frank Dole, an employe of the Central Iron and Steel Company, read an article from the Indianapolis Sentinel sent from this city claiming that the employes of the Central Iron and Steel Com pany were coerced into joining the Mc Kinley club. This assertion was branded a falsehood by the adoption of the following resolution by unanimous vote of the em ployes of the company: "Resolved, That, whereas the Indianapolis Sentinel has a correspondent in the city of Brazil, and they published in their paper Saturday morning. Sept. 26, a letter from the said correspondent which conveys to tne readers of that Daper that the employes of the rolling mill, Vandalia railroad -and the clay works are forced to join the McKinley clubs against their wishes, and that the employer even goes to the extent of laying the lash on their bare backs until they are compelled to tall in line, etc.. "Resolved, That the Iron Workers' !dcKinley Club deny that there has been any coercion whatever, and that we now offer a liberal reward for the production of any man who has been forced to join this club by coercion or to the extent of "laying on the lash,' and we further desire to ascer tain the name of this enlightened corre spondent, and we hereby agree to pay the informer a Mexican silver dollar.

"There Is something uncanny In a parrot!" exclaimed a visitor to her friend as the latter's pet macaw came slowly for-

ward in response to the finger of invitation extended toward her, and deliberately mounted the rerch. 'Eh?" said Polly twisting her head and cocking up one eye. "Now, Polly." said her mistress, "you must be a good girl and say your lesson. Spell cat. Polly." "D-o-g," answered her pupil readily; and then, as if amused at her own wit, roared with laughter, "Ha, ha. ha! Ho, ho!" "I am sure she understands." cried the friend. "She is exactly like a mischievous child." "He, he!" giggled Tolly. Finally, however, she was persuaded to spell a variety of simple words properly. "Now, dear Polly." continued her instructress, "how does the cat go?" "Mew." she replied, correctly. "And the dog?" "Cock-a-doodle-doo." "she answered, with a wink. "No. Pollv, that is the rooster: the dog. I say. Polly." "Bow-wow. cock-a-doodie-doo. baa. moo." and so on, ad crescendo a perfect volley of sounds; and as her audience burst out laughing, . she joined in the mirth with infinite gusto. It was such a hearty, infectious laugh that it was impossible to believe that the bird was not as genuinely amused as her hearers. "Sing for us, please. Polly." begged the lady of the house, beginning to hum a popular air. and Polly joined 'in with sudden gravity and in perfect tune. "And now a dance." she continued, winding up a little music box: whereupon the bird, with evident pleasure, trod a measure full of the most comical gvratlons, and with

such a languishing air that it was impossible not to laugh. Whereunon Pollv grew suddenly sjlky and refused to show off any longer. "She is terribly offended with me. ' said her mistress, rtgretlully, "and she w.ll not get over it tor hours. I ought to have warned you' that she can never stand having her dancing laughed at." The queer creature, with -'ts seemingly halfhuman intelligence, gave a dismal croak or two, and walked off pigeon-toed to its cage, looking distrustfully over its shoulder as it went. CLUBBED TO DEATH. One Thonnand Armenian Reported to Have Been Killed Sunday. LONDON, Sept.. 29. A dispatch to the Post from Constantinople says that the Turkish marines aided the rabble to loot the Armenian houses in Galatea on Sunday. The Daily News's Constantinople correspondent says that patrols are parading the city in unusual numbers and that the police have been notified that some outbreak w'll occur to-morrow. A Berlin dispatch to the Daily News quotes a Constantinople dispatch to the Frankfurter Zitung, which says that the Governor of Kharput telegraphs that 1.000 Armenians were clubbed to death at Nikede on Sunday. This dispatch also says that the Sultan has given $150,000 to indemnify the foreigners injured in the massacres. A Vienna dispatch to the Daily News says that as an outcome of Emperor Francis Joseph's visit to Bucharest the King of Rcumania has promised to join the Dreibuud. while Austria and Roumania have agreed to hold the Danube as a sacred trust, whatever happens in the East. . The Coming; ('lies Tournament. BUDAPEST. Sept. 29. Up to the present the following European and American experts have entered the international c:est masters' tournament, a contest which will begin In this city next Monday: America, Pillsbury and Steinitz (the latter, however, under the condition that Lasker will also enter); France. JanowskI; Russia, Tschlgorin, Alapin and Von Popiel: Austria, Marco. Schlecter and Albin: Germany. Tarrasch. Schallopp and Walbrodt. (The. former two have not actually entered, but it is highly probable that they will enter.) Owing to the proposed Laxker vs. Steinitz match, to be. played in Moscow in November, it is still doubtful whether Lasker can be induced to enter this tournament. .

COLUMBUS. O., Sept. 29. A circular was issued to-day by the assignees to the creditors of the Columbus Buggy Company and Peter Dash Company asking for suggestions as to the manner in which the trust shall be continued. Tle personal goods and chattels are appraised at $431.298.45, notes and securities at $71,962.27, claims and acco tats at $198,527 and the real estate at $231,850. Miscellaneous assets bring the grand total up to $948,349.02. The secured, or partially secured, and preferred claims against the companies amount to $417,160.38 and unsecured claims to $652,209.94, making the total direct liabilities $1,069,370.32. It is estimated that the property subjected to secure claims, appraised at $346,713.90. will satisfy about $329,231.04 of debts. This leaves $601,708.12 available to pay claims amounting to $740,139.28. The circular says: "At the time of the assignment said assignors had indorsed and discounted notes to the amount of $457.807.87, on all of which they were liable as indorsers. Since the assignment a large amount of this proper has matured and has been dishonored, and it is an assured fact that a considerable amount more will be dishonored at maturity. At the present time it is impossible to determine the liability of the assignors on this paper, but dividends will doubtless have to be paid from this trust to some extent at least on not less, than $130,000 of this dis Minted paper; that is to say. in the opinion of the assignees, at least $150,000 of tnis paper will not be fully paid by the makers thereof or out of their estate." Business Embarrassments. ERIE, Pa.. Sept. 29. The affairs of the Grand Union Equitable Aid Union were brought into court to-day on a petition for the release of Ohio from the receivership recently appointed. Ellis D. Sprague. pres-' ident of the Grand Union of Onio, set torth that the separate State jurisdiction of Ohio was solvent, that her indebtedness Is a little over $12,000 and it has $4,000 cash on hand and more than enough coming on an assessment to meet all its obligations. The order In Ohio has 3,500, all in class A. Judge Gunnison thereupon released Ohio from the receivership, and the Ohio, union as a separate jurisdiction is only liable for her own debts. BOSTON. Sept. 29. Judge Allen, in the Supreme Court, to-day appointed Ovington E. Weller, of Boston, receiver of the Citizens' Gas Light Company, of Reading and Stoneham. The liabilities of the company amount to about $85,000, of which $30,000 are preferred and the balance unsecured. NEW YORK, Sept. 29. Frederick P. Forster has been appointed receiver of the assets of Hulburt Bros. & Co., sporting goods and bicycle dealers, in proceedings for voluntary dissolution of the corporation. Assets, $378,322: direct liabilities. $292,476; contingent liabilities, $62,265. NEW YORK, Sept. 29. Herbert Booth King & Bro.. advertising agents, made an assignment to-day with preferences of $12,800. "Through a Straiaht Lane." Springfield Republican. The best commentary on the morality of the bicycle which has yet appeared is that it is "uniquely adapted for the path called narrow." Anyone who has seen a beginner's efforts, however, will doubt whether it is equally strong on straightness. LlRlit. Detroit Tribune. "Why does a girl ever bleach her hair?7 "Oh.

KNOWN TO THE ANCIENTS

SOME RECIPES WHICH HAVE SrACE !?EE LOST AD FORGOTTEX. Potter. Violin Maker, (iln Maker Had Secret Which Hate ot Descended to Modern Time. London Standard. When we reflect that the ancients possessed but very limited means for spreading knowledge of any kind, it seems somewhat strange that so much of it should have come down to modern times. But when it is taken into consideration that even since the introduction of printing, which is the greatest disseminator of knowledge that has ever existed, many secrets of . recipes have been utterly lost, it is truly wonderful that the number of trade recipes which the ancients used, and which have been handed down to us. is not infinitely smaller than it is. But then those that are lost seem to be by far the most important they are not merely of interest to the antiquarian and the different varieties of "ologists," but would be useful to those who earn their bread In the everyday walks of life. To know,, for example, how the ancient Roman made his mortar w ould interest both the modern builder and bis pocket. But unfortunately for posterity, the modern builder can no more make mortar equal to that of the Romans than he cn fly. If he could there would be a chance that the buildings which he makes would last for some thousands of years so long, in fact, as the stone lasts. This Is the case with the mortar used by the Romans. It is as firm now as it was a couple of thousand years ago, so hard that a file will hardlv touch it. and so lasting that the stones which it cemented together have begun to crumble away, leaving the mortar still intact. Another secret which was known to the Romans, or at least to one of them, was one about glass. The story, if we recollect rightly, is told by Suetonius. An artisan brougnt to the Emperor Tiberius a goblet made of glass, a substance then recently discovered, which, when thrown on the ground or squeezed in the hand, did not break, but was as elastic as steel. The only goblets in those- times were made of metal. The only ones used in Roman society were made of silver or gold. Consequently the emperor thought that if the secret of making glass gobiets which were unbreakable became generally known the trade of the goid and silversmiths of Rome would be ruined, and he therefore ordered the immediate execution of the artisan who invented the method of producing malleable glass. The order as were most of the orders of aft imperial despot was promptly carried out and the mans secret died with him, nor has it since been recovered. GREEK FIRE. The Greeks, so history tells us, were in the habit of using in their naval battles a substancewhich, when thrown on to the water, burned and set fire to the ships of the enemy. This substance went under the name of "Greek fire," but unless it was the metal potassium modern scientists do not know what it was, and even that element would not answer the purpose unless used in very large quantities. If, therefore, the famous Greek fire was potasssium the Greeks must have been acquainted with a 'cheap and easy method of obtaining it, and it they had that recipe it is lost. To return to the Romans once more, Locusta, the hyad of the college of poisoning tounded by Nero, knew of poisons which would kill to order, so to speak that is, which would kill in a minute, a day, a year or longer and leave no trace. Apparently this recipe came down to the middle ages, for tne Borgia family could do similar feats. Their victims wouid perhaps be presented with a pair of jeweled gioves or a beautiful bouquet ot flowers, out after putting on the first or smelling the second the victim would die within the day. Occasionally a visitor would lie requested to open a cupboard; he did so and was poisoned through contact with the haudie, although there was no visible puncture. Cnesar Borgia again had a ring with a bezel shaped ime a lion's head. If he shook hands with one of his victims while this ring was on his linger a rapid death was invariably the result; but fortunately these toxicoloslcal secrets died with that Infamous trio Pope Alexander VI. Caesar andLucretia Borgia. The English of early times did noi know a great deal that we do not know now. But they certainly knew of a drug or ot something which would protect the skin from heat. Edit ha, the daughter of Godwin, plunged her arm Into a caldron of boiling oil and brought out the "holy stone" therefrom. She cotnd not have done this without seme such help. But although the secret of it is dead to us, it is most certainly known to some of the Eastern conjurers of to-day; for a feat similar to the above in every instance may be- witnessed in almost every country of the Orient. The Italians and the ancient Romans, toe, for that matter,' had a method of mixing trelr colors so as to render them imperishable. A glance at some of the old Roman pictures in the British Museum will show that the colors of pictures painted nearly z.uuu years ago are aimost as tresh. especially the reds, as they must originally have bten. Raphael. Van Dyke, Rubens in fact, all the old masters possessed a similar secret. What their recipe was is not known, but certainly modern painters cannot mix their colors so as to make them stand the test of centuries. Fifty r sixty years, at the best, is what they will stand without showing a marked deterioration. VIOLIN -MAKERS. Another class of old masters the vie'.inn akers had a recipe which Is lost forever. It was for a varnish which, besides preserving the instruments, sank into the wood and mellowed It. In spite of repeated efforts, however, the modern violin manufacturers cannot make a similar varnish, and It is principally for this reason that their instruments, though very good, cannot rank even with a mediocre "Strad" or Amati. When Cortez conquered Mexico he found the Aztecs a civilized race. He found them masters of architecture and skilled in metallurgy. He found, too, that they were able to treat copper in such a manner that it could le hardened and tempered like steel. We have seen specimens of this copper cutlery which is pure copper, almost cnemically pure which are equal in fineness of temper and hardness to the finest steel produced by our muchvaunted scientific processes of "to-day. Men have worked for a long time on this subject, for if copper of this kind cou'd be produced now it would be invaluable for many purposes; but. so far. little or no success has attended their efforts, ar.d the recipe remain a secret. The inlaying of swordDlades with gold, at which the Indians were at one time expert, is another lost recipe, for even they cannot do it now, and only a few examples of 'gold inlaid swords and daggers now remain to prove that at one time somebody possessed the secret for thus beautifying them without damaging their efficiency. In the middle of last century there lived in a Welsh village a blacksmith who possessed a recipe for welding steel without rpoilinc its temper. He was able to weld a sword blade in half an hour in such a manner that the join was quite invisible, and the edge, temper and brightness were as perfect sis when the weapon first came from the factory. But he Invariably worked alone and woud not even allow any one near his forge while he wan at work; and although he was offered large sums for the secret of his recirN he nevef divulged it and it died with him. During the last two centuries even there have been recipes lost. For example, we cannot now make china as they used to make it. A piece of imitation Crown Derby could instantly be recognized as such, first, by the color, which cannot now be reproduced, and, secondly, by the glaze which the the old potters used, and of which the recipe is entirely lost to us. The same applies to Lowestoft. How and Chelsea ware the glaze cannot be reproduced.. For a long time it was not known how cameo Wedgewood was made and when that was known the question arose, how was the Portland vase now In the British Museum, and the only specimen ot that kind of ware known made? It was not made on the same principal as the Wedgewood ware, for although Josiah Wedgewood tried, he could not reproduce work anything like the original vase, the cameos on which stand out as sharply as the moon in a cloudless sky. Certainly the artist who produced the Portland vase had a recipe which is now lost, for not the slightest idea of how it was made exists, nor can even a reasonable theory be evolved. Appearance Deceptive. Buffalo Courier. The Arounder took it into his head to visit the Polish convention yesterday. In the church building on Sobieskl street. He found it a strange experience to get Into an assemblage where those awful zigzag words were thunderholted around without hurtlrs anybody. He was especially im

pressed v.ith the oratory oi one of the first sneakers, who strode up and down th platform gesticulating vehemently and apparently storming forth volleys of forkedlightning invective. His words, too, yeemed to stir up the audience to quite a frenzy of excitement. The policemen at the door als looked a bit anxious. After it was all over the Arounder ascertained that the speaker was merely delivering a highly compli

mentary address of welcome. MR. IIRVAV ,M Tim BIBLE. Hi Irreverent Ariimcnt Might Easily Met by Other IaaKe. Buffalo CourieY. Antonio, upon learning: the terms of Shylock's loan, exclaimed: TV... .1 i I I . . t m. 1. I .. a ill. n,-k ii .i i i- ip i 1 1 , i ii i rr ii,i iim uua pose. An evil soul producing holy witness Is like a villain with a smiling cheek. A goodly apple rotten at the heart: O. what a goodly outside falsehood hath." Now. without likening Mr. Brvan to the devil or calling him un evil soul, he may. justly be charged with citing Scripture for his purpose, with producing holy witness to bolster up his own case, when he known very well that It Is false evidence, sine the same witness may be made to bear, testimony for his opponents. In Philadelphia the other night he suid this foollsl thing: "They talk q,bout gold as If it wa? divine. It is in the sense that It is their God. It is not divine. It is matter. Instead of being a real God. and a thing to. be worshiped, we are told that when th Children of Israel made it into a calf and i-sun iu worsnip it. mat It tiispieasea God and He ground It into powder." The implication is that If the Children of Israel had made their calf of silver God would have been pleased with their worship of tho idol. The fact is that the Lord said to. Moses: "Ye shall not make with me gods; of silver; neither shall ye make, unto you gods of gold." Mr. Bryan's burlesqueof argumentation in this matter J beneath serious consideration. But for curiosity's sake. It may be worth n moment's while to note that all through tlm Bible gold Is the metaphor for great preclousness in the things of the spirit, whila among material riches It Is the most desirable of all. Silver and gold were used! In building the tabernacle, but pure gol alone for the arc of the covenant, the at-" tar. the Table and the utensil of tin sanCf? tuary; and in the very next to the last chapter of the book the evangelist beholds the N'ew Jerusalem "pure gold. lik( unto clear glass." The wise men brougnt to the manger in Bethlehem gold no silver. What mighty arguments of the Bryan sort might he made to show that gold is the. most precious metal In the sight of the Almighty! What others. In like manner, might be advanced to show that silver 1 regarded In the Scriptures as rather inferior stuff. It is recorded that Solomon "made silver to be in Jerusalem as stones." Perhaps its purchasing power was that C stones also (Bryanlte manner of argumentation.) In Proverbs, a book to which.. Mr. Bryan frequently refers, may be found ' a maxim that the merchandise of wisdom is better than the merchandise of silver; and. again, the advice to receive Instruction and not silver. In the following clause of tho sentence from which we have Just quoted the reader is urged to receive knowledge rather than choice gold. But In a Bryanlte manner of argumentation for gold, such an admission, of course, would not do. But we would like to call the attention of Mr. Bryan and his followers to the warning of Ecclesiastes: "He that lovetlw sliver shall not be satisfied with silver.". Is not that a crusher for the silver cause? And In the vision of Isaiah we may see clearly what shall happen If the .Bryan cause prevails: "Thy ' silver Is become dross." Again wo have Jeremiah's opinion of silver: "Reprobate 'silver shall men call them because the Lord hath neglected them." Hosea. rebuking the degenerate Israelites, exclaimed: "And now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver." further along in the same verse It Is said that these images of silver are graven calves. Amos reminds the Israelites that the Lord will not turn away their punishment, "because they sold the righteous for silver." Again the prophet Amos cries: "Hear thts. O ve that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fall, paying when will the new moon be gone, that wo may sell corn? and the Sabbath, that w may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances of deceit? That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a. pair of shoes; yea. and sell the refuse oi the wheat!" Let the Bryanites tremble. Well may their cheeks blanch, for hath not Zephaniah foretold their end when Iip hath cried with a loud voice? Have not their knees smote together at hfs words: "Howl, ye inhabitants of Maktesh. for all they that bear silver are cut off!" These are but a few of scores of passages in the Bible bearing upon this interesting, question bearing upon it. that is to say. lu a Bryanian sense. Most of the people who believe in truth and reason will refuse to believe that any passage in the Bible of this kind has the slightest application to the currency question In the United States or anywhere else. The passages which we may apply with pVolit to the consideration of that question and every other involving a moral principle are those in which we are told to love our neighbor as ourselves, to deal justly, to get wisdom and understanding. If we hearken to those precepts, and incline our hearts to obey them, we shall probably vote the right ticket, and the country will prosper In righteousness. A Study In MecveM. Philadelphia Record. The new sleeves are in reality very, vrry much smaller, but the variety and elaboration of their trimming just at the shoulder prevents the change being too markedly noticed. The bishop sleeve, that had a hhort-lived popularity this summer for wash materials. has faded from notice and will not be used at all this winter. The mousquetaire sleeve is very popular for wedding gowns, &nd for a good reason. A wedding gown Is always richer the more simple it Is, and i.nother material to trim detracts from its appearance, so any device to use its own material for trimming is welcome for that purpose. The short puff, finished with a band or bow of ribbon, and the butterfly sleeve will be the ones most used for evening dresses. The butterfly Is sometimes used for dressy theater wraps. The modified gigot will'iM the one most seen in the majority of gowns for daytime wear, whether for the plain cloth gown or in the more fussy one for afternoon wear. For the trimming on the bottom of the sleeves the tendency seems to have it nit run up and down, and wth the sheathlike upper, to give the arm a more slender appearance, this Is very trying to women with thin arms. The proper accompaniment for the bottom of the sleeve of a Louis XV Jacket or a long basque is a gauntlet cuff, net too wide, but with quite a flare at the ?op. A new sleeve, called the Renaissance, shown on a number of handsome gowns recently imported, was gatherrd at thf seam so that It set In a multiplicity of wrinkles down the pointed cuff. To make, these set closer some make them without lining. These are extremely odd and pretty, but well the crafty French knew It was almost 'mposslble to cdyy them without a pattern, and this they didn't send with them. The sleeves In all the new coats and Jacket are close-fitting leg-o'-mutton, wlt'.i modest fullness at the top. Fur edging makes a very attractive finish for the bottom of a jacket sleeve for outdoor wear, but quite an expensive one. as it has to be frequently renewed because the putting on and off wears It off. Do not delude yourself with the Idea that the new sleeve will save much material. From the peculiarity of shape and the number of pieces in some It requires quite as much material. Ohltunry. DETROIT.
