REMARKABLE CAMPAIGNING OF BRYAN AND ROOSEVELT.

“WELL, BOYS, YOU’VE CERTAINLY BROKEN THE RECORDS.”

This presidential campaign has been remarkable in more ways than one. In the first place, there lias been the most systematic end thorough canvass ever made fn the whole history of American polities. Again, there has been employed by each party the largest number of orators ever put on the stump; ami there has consequently been made the largest number of speeches of all presidential campalgnK Most remarkable, however, have been the feats performed by Mr. Bryan and Mr. Roosevelt, who up to Oct. 20, the former beginning Aug. 31 and the latter Sept. 24, had made the following unexcelled records: Roosevelt. Bryan. States covered.. 19 14 Cities visited.,.- 350 280 Speeches 300 285 Total words 600,000 997,000 Number of auditors.7oo,ooo 550,000 'Thus Roosevelt averaged each day 12 speeches of 2,000 words each, and Bryan seven of 3,700 words each. Roosevelt addressed an average of 30,000 persons a day, and Bryan one of 13,W0. Bryan broke his own record of 1896, a comparison being made between equivalent periods. Surely, these men have performed wonderful feats of physical and mental endurance and have made the campaign of 1900 more memorable than that of 1896, which was then considered wonderful from what Mr. Bryan did in the way of making speeches from the tail end of the “campaign special” train.

ROBBED OF $700,000

First National Bank of New York Suffer* from Trust in C. L. Alvord. Cornelius L. Alvoril, note toller in the First National Bank of New York, 2 Wall street, stole $700,000 of the bank’s funds and absconded. The bank’s officers positively deny that anyone in the bank or that any of its depositors was in collusion with Alvord. He had been twenty years in the bank’s employ. President George F. Baker of the bank gave out the following statement: “The note teller, who has been in the employ of the First National Bank for many years, is a defaulter to a largo amount. His operations have continued for a considerable period and have been skillfully concealed through a manipulation of his balance books. The discovery was made by one of the bank’s employes a few days after the completion of an examination of the bank by'the United States examiners. During the continuance of his peculations, periodical examinations have been made by several distinct corps of examiners representing the comptroller’s department, all expert accountants, and the bank has also had frequent independent examinations, none of which have developed any- irregularities. The aggregate of the false entries amounting to $700,000 has been charged off on the books of the bank out of the reserve fund. It is expected that the shortage will be materially reduced by a substantial sum of which there is a fair prospect of recovery, Alvord’s stealings extended over period of several years. The discovery of his peculations was made during his absence on sick leave. It has been learned that Alvord played the races heavily and frequented gambling houses. He bad been in the bank’s employ for twenty years,” Alvord has a wife and three children. His home was at Mount Vernon and he was respected there as well as in Wall street. The loss in money is hardly disturbing to the bank, which is one of the strongest in the city. The deposits amount to $35,000,000 and its resources are said to be $50,000,000. Alvord’s stealings are the largest known in the history of New York's banking institutions. Cashier 8. R. Seeley of Hie Shoe and Leather Bunk stole $354,000 in 1894, up to which time he held the record. He is now serving a term in the penitentiary, having been caught nt Chicago a few weeks after his flight. Following are some of the bank defalcations in'New York City and vicinity: 1900—C. L.

Fremont eloped with his Jessie, “Tom” Benton, the great Senator, made terrific threats ot what he would do to the young man. He would give him roast* and bullets and hades, to all of which Mrs. Benton quietly remarked: “You had better give him Jessie, my dear." By order of Postmaster General Charles Emory Smith, a United State* postoffice has been opened at Tien-tsin to facilitate the handling of mail matter tor the troops in China.

THE RAILROADS.

The voluntary relief department of thf Burlington system is in a flourishing con ditiou. About $1,650,000 has been expended ii improving the road bed of the Texai line of the Santa Fe system. The Association of Railway Superin tendents of Bridges and Buildings its eleventh national convention at St Louis. Earnings of the Milwaukee and St Paul system for the third week in 0c tober decreased $21,000, compared witl a year ago. Chesapeake and Ohio earnings for tin fourth week in September increase! $158,265. For the month the incrensf was $226,913. Officers of the Illinois Central havt started in on a fall booming of this road’i new line between Chicago and Ho l Springs, Ark. Executive officers of between forty an< fifty western roads met in St. Louis ti consider an agreement for the restrictioi of passes during 1901. Seven new passenger engines han been received by the Illinois Central road The locomotives delivered are the of a recent order for thirty. The annual report of the Wisconsii Central Railway shows: Gross earnings $5,637,416; operating expenses, $3,580, 935; net earnings, $2,056,480.

The Atlantic freight service arrange! by the Norfolk and Western, the Chesa peake and Ohio and the Southern Rail way will soon be put in operation. The Texas aqd Pacific officials an nounce that that road has re-entered th< southwestern passenger bureau, from whlctgit withdrew several weeks ago. Another big contract for freight on gines has been awarded by the Burling ton road for thirty locomotives to b< known ns the prairie type. The cost ol ench engine will be $14,000, or $420,000 for the thirty. The Mississippi Railroad Commission declined to recede from its original schedule of rates on cotton seed, which is 4 cents minimum to 12 cents maximum, with 25 per cent added for joint hauls. The courts will have to settle the matter. The special campaign trains which have been run by the railroads in the central States have not proved very profitable to the transportation companies; in fact, officers of many of the linos that hnvc engaged extensively in operating these political trains say that they have been run in a majority of instances at large not losses. The formal opening of the magnificent new terminal station in Nashville, Tenn., took place the other day. The new sta; tion, together with necessary improvements, cost $2,500,000. Gross earnings of the Chicago, Milwaukee nnd St. Paul road for the first week in October were $866,723, compared with $991,805 for the corresponding period of last year, a decrease of $125,082.

The first annual report of the Hocking Valley Railway, for the year ending June 30, 1900, shows gross earnings of $4,417,206; operating expenses and taxes, .$2,041,207; net canungs,

I E Ia » . <1 H - R WJkll A gorgeous costume flashed beneath t£e brilliant lights of a ball room. The queen of society is radiant to-night. The nervous hands of a weak woman have toiled day and night, the weary form and aching head have known no rest, for the dress must be finished in time. To that queen of society and her dressmaker we would say a word. One through hothouse culture, luxury and social excitement, and the otjier through the toil of necessity, may some day find their ailments a common cause. Nervous prostration, excitability, fainting spells, dizziness, sleeplessness, loss of appetite and strength, all indicate serious trouble, which has been promoted by an over-taxed system. For the society queen and the dressmaker alike, there is nothing so reliable as Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to restore strength, vigor, and happiness. Mrs. Lizzie Anderson, 49 Union St., Salem, N. J., writes : “ Deab Mrs. Pinkham : —I feel it is my duty to write and tell you how grateful I am to you for what your medicine has done for me. At oae time I suffered everything a woman could. I had inflammation of th® ovaries, falling of the womb, and leucorrhoea. At times could not hold a needle to sew. The first dose of your Vegetable Compound helped me so much that I kept on using it. I have now taken six bottles and am well and able to do my work. I also ride a wheel and feel no bad effects from it. lam thankful to the Giver of all good for giving you the wisdom of curing suffering women. I recommend your medSicine to every woman troubled with any of these diseases.” Mrs. Sarah Swoder, 103 West St., La Porte, ind., writes: “Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— lt gives me great pleasure to tell you how muoh good Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has done for me. “I had been a sufferer for years with female trouble. I could not sew but a few minutes at a time without suffering terribly with my head. My back and kidneys also troubled me all th® time. I was advised bj' a friend to take your medicine. I had no faith in it, but decided to try it. After taking one bottle I felt so much better that I continued its use, and by the time I had taken six bottles I was cured. There is no other medicine for me. I recommend it to all my friends.” nfl fl RF W ARfi ILw ■ ■ E ■ H ■ IIL VW rxilw the genumenewof the 5 S ■ we tre c«n»a»ntly cublishing.Nre kava 9 K B R B R I dvpfstted with the National City Bank, of, Lynn, Maas., tvooa, I which will bo paid to any person who will show taat the twn testimonials are not genuine, or were published before obtaining WW the writers’special pertuisaion.—Lydia E.
