by his great speech , that speech which has

HISTORY AGAINST BRYAN.
I claim that all history is agnlnFt the
claims of free silver In no country today
( Joes the silver coin possess more value than
tie actual worth of the bullion it contains.
We have nothing to go by but the facts
obtained from the experiments tried by
other nations. Mr Bryan refuses the a. -
.vs-.aace of any other nation ia obuunte ?
bimetallism. He says he will tender th
other nations tie silver dollar- , containing
4IT4. grains , and if they refuse be ill brine
them to an international conference. If I
could dlsrecard common sense the teach
ing of all history , I would vote fer fre * sil
ver But I know It is absolutely impoMdbl * e
to add JOO per cent of value to anything-
legislation. I know that 1 < aa impossibility
ard a dancerous proposition. But that !
what Mr Bryan and "ia friends propose.
By your vote on November S suppress for

Tbe city engineer reported tke tabulation
of the. bids for the paving of the alley be
tween North Main and Bryant streets. The j
tabulation showed that E A. Wickbamwas :

cil Bins * aad Des Moines brick. His bid ,
was Jl.8 for all Council BleSs brick aad
U-4X for borne brick at the bottom aad |
D a Moines repressed brick for tbe top l
course. The council practically awarded I
him the contract , bat delayed final action 1
until next Monday evening , for the purpose |
of letting Mr. Wfekhaza confer with tbe !
property owners aad ascertain from them
the kind of material decired.
Bids for grading the alley between Lincoln

The property owaers of Madison aveane

section were cut out of the contract. This i
was the agreemeat reached at the last l
meeting , aad the council was oaly waiting
for the property owaers to submit their
proposal la writlag , to approve It. The
work of constructing the Graham aveaue
sewer will be resumed by the contractor ,
the property owaers having paid ao atten
tion to the request of the council for a writ-
tea proposition.
The question of repairs on the city Jail was
brought up for discussion. Last spring the
council agreed to make some changes la coa-
aeciioa with the eatraace to the cell cerrl-
elor by which the daager of aa outbreak
when food was being Liken into the corri
dor would be leswned. Frequently there is
but one maa OB duty la the Jatl whea
meal time conies , aad he must either keep
the prisoners out of their diaaers uatU as
sistance comes or throw the Jail open aad
rua th risk of beiag overpowered. The
proposed changes contemplate a steel euara
around the doorway that will aot subject
the Jailer ui the danger of being overpowered
, every time he opens the Jail doors. Stor-
age boxes for the ejects of the prisoners
, Is another lEprovemeat contemplated. The
I matter was referred to the committee oa
city property with power to act.
The council will meet aa a committee of
the whole at 9 o'clock this moraias for the
purpose of examining the condition of the
4 city scales at the city butldlag with a view
I of repairing then or purcaaalag a new

Muddy Pyrotechnic * .
Colonel Btker and J. M. Flagler have
about completed their work of clearing out
the channel of Mosquito creek above the
bridge oa the School for the Deaf road. They
have exploded a great many charges of dyaa-
ailte aad have created a great deal of ea-
tertalazneat for the crowd by givlagr elab „
orate displays of muddy pyrotechnics.
Charges of dynamite , raaging from four to
tea ia number , have beea suak ia the de
bris aad drift above the bridge aad fired
simultaneously by aa electric battery. The
explosions have thrown up volcanoes of
1 mud that have beea fascinating Eights for
the multitude. Generally the blast throws
the mud straight upward aad it comes back
after aa interval ia the shape of various
sized chunks aad drops back iato the bud
of the creek , bet occasionally it takes a
notion to throw it out at aa angle aad then
some of the spectators have to rua aad do
same agile dodging to escape the muddy
avalaache.
About J160 has beea expended la the work ,
but It has probably saved the county a new

living at Shernsaa. Me , He goes out after
the oowa every aight end. Crives tieaa home
to the tie-up , always ta the greatest safety.
but the other night Jie , had aa adveature
which has led to tie KjbetitaUon of his
oMer brother in tie .gaOiering of the kiae

Oa a receat Saturday night Jack went
dawa after the calUfe The animals were
ia the pasture and it i.aalm.Bt ) dark before
he got to them. He rted them home
with some speed , bur one lagged ia the
shadows under the trees.
Ja k threw a stone at tie supposed cow
aad cot a very large urjrtee iu return for
it. He heard lie atone strike the aalraa
with a hollow thump en ita nbs aad expected
to see the cow come out from under tke
trees on a swinging nsa. Instead a big
moose bounded out la the opeaiag aad made
for tke youngster.
Jack sired up the animal at first sight.
Boy aad girls , whea they get big enough
to walk the streets of Sherman in boots aa <
stockings , know wild animals when they see
them. So Jack kaew the moose. He maae
for the nearest tree aad scooted op It with
mall delay.
The meo e was dose at the boy's heeli
when ne dime * * ] iato the totter bran eh ti
