The most exciting Incident of the entire Ilryan campaign occurred at 7 o'clock on Sunday evening. H had all of the elements of treason In It , and canio very near ter minating In a tragedy. John Dcrlcw , an old soldier , who has a war record of which he Is Justly proud , and whoso patriotism will brook no Insult to the flag under which he lives and for which ho fought , made a determined but unsuc cessful attempt to kill an. enthusiastic lry- ) anlte. Bcrlew Hxes at HID Twenty-fourth avenue. On Saturday ( flag day ) there was no residence In that portion of the city that had a more conspicuous or prouder flag floating oxer It than the specimen of Old Glory thai Dcrlew raised above his home. It was attached to tlie > tallest Hag pole he could nnd. and that polo was raised on the highest gable of hla house. Every window In the house was adorned with pictures ot McKlnley and Hobart , but there was noth ing about the place that was so dear to the heart of the old soldier as the mngnlllcent silken banner that Moated troin the hcusc- top It represented a large portion of the last Installment of the pension the govern ment Is pas Ing him. On Sunday evening the grossest possible Insult was offered to that flag. It was llrcd upon and riddled with shot. The treasonable act was committee * ! just before dark , llcrlew was sitting In hi * front vvlniUw looking out upon the street The . \lmlon was Immediate ! ) beneath the flag pole , and the old soldier could sec the silken folds of the ( lag as U rose and fell on the gentle breeze. A man came along the street mounted upon a horse. The flapping flag startled the horse and he shied. The sight of the flag and the conduct of the horse angered the lr > anlte , and. spurring the ani mal up to the sidewalk , he deliberately llrcd bvth. barrels of lite gun Into the flag. The ( lag was pointing directly toward him , and the charges of shot split It Into thousands of pieces Derlcw saw every act of the traitor and observed the remnants of the stricken flag floating down to the ground. An oath that would have done credit to Fighting Jco Hooker burst from his lips The Insult to the flag fired him as no sim ilar Insult had ever done when he was ear ning a musket In the war and shooting1 at men who were shooting at that flag. He forgot his rheumatism and his > ears Two big 44-callbcr Colt's revolvers were * In the houeu and loaded for use. In an Instant he had these weapons and was out of the htuse. The fellow who fired on the flag scented the danger end was urging his horse out of the neighborhood at the top of his speed Herlew took deliberate aim and began send Ing the bullets after the fleeing horseman Several shots were fired without effect , when one struck the horse and honied him ever The rider went tumbling Into the dust He was nearly two'blosks away , and as he set ambled to his feet the sight of an old soldier rushing toward him with n smok ing revolver In each hand completed the ttanle. Herlew fired his last shots at the follow as he was fleeing. Once he avv him put his hand with a spasmodic action to his ear as If an angry hornet was buzzing around that member. Again he stumbled and almost fell. It Is certain this shot took effect. The fellow recovered , though , and never quit running until Tie was out of sight The horse was found to have had one of Its hind legs broken. The shotgun was found where It had fallen several rods away. The shooting created Intense excitement in the neighborhood , and although that portion of town Is not thickly settled a crowd qulckl ) gathered The wounded horse received much sympathy , and there were mnny expressions of regret that the traitor who fired on the flag had not received the bullet Instead the horse. The horse , siddlo and shotgun were taken to the residence of John Teltge , on Seventeenth avenue and Twenty-eighth street. There was little prospect of saving the animal , and ho was Ulllcd to put him out of his miser } . No ono has jet appeared to claim the homo and prope'rt > It has been prett > nearly identified , and It Is probable that the owner and rider will eoon bo dis covered.

It was the seven teenth address that Mr. Baldwin has made In the Interest of the country and In de fense of republican principles since he went upon the stump a week or two ago Tbo slzo of the audience was limited only by the area of the republican headquarters where the meeting VMS held The rush of people drove out the reporters from tilt gallery that has all along been sacred to them , converted their tables Into seats , and left them not elbow room enough to scilbblo a note. Baldwin's friends arranged several graceful tilbutes to him. In the press gallery was a large party of his neighbors and closest personal friends , among them a largo number of prominent society women. Just before the speaking began from dif ferent portions of the ball canio several largo bouquets of Immense yellow chryban themums and yellow tea roses , plentifully adorned with golden ribbons. They were passed along over the heads of the amlleiae until they reached the speaker's table. The gracefulness of the tribute and the signifi cance of the color pleased the people mightily , and they cheered the flowers every time they arouc In the air on their way to the table. Mr Baldwin was escorted from his homo to the hall by the McKlnle ) guards , the junior guards , thrco or four drum corps and the colored McKlnley club the latter resplcudant In military uniforms Wbllo no particular effort was made the demonstration was fully as Imposing and ex tensive as the Ilr\an blowout on Saturda\ evening The commercial travelers' club , headed by a drum corps , held a prominent position In the organizations escorting Mr Baldwin to the hall. They wore yellow ribbons on their hats , largo yellow chrysan themums on the lapels of their coats and their canes were adorrcd by a bunch of fluttering yellow ribbons. Lonk Hypes and Harry K'Jlas were the marshals. Mr. Baldwin's speech was one of his most able and eloquent efforts. It was the keen critical analysis of the lawyer announced with the force and fervor of the orator Mr. Bryan's speeches and public declarations worn used largely as the basis of the argu ment to show the fallacies of his theories and predictions The Madison Spuare garden address was quoted from and attention called to the fact that in It and subse quent speeches Mr Bryan had admitted that 'bo result of free and unlimited coinage was problematical , and that panics would follow his election. Mr Baldwin's exposl- slon of the money question was very clear and ablo. It constituted , however , but A small portion of his speech. The great question was not the financial problem upon which the populists and Mr Bryan had made their campaign. That was simply the old greenback question revived and he believed that It was already burled deeper than the rag baby was burled. The real problem was the rcsoratlon of the protective tariff , which the democrats hsd stricken down and with It tbo prosperity of every American Industry and every Interest of American man and woman , There had been five periods of frco trade In thin country and there have been five panics , Uvery panic followed a radical reduction In the tariff laws. Mr. Baldwin quoted from the national ceuius to show the comparative Importance that the gold and silver mln- Inu Industries bear to the other American Industries. There were barely 67,000 men engaged In this kind of mining , while there were 2D07,1'S2 ' engaged In the factories. The product of the mines was only fUISOGOO. while the product of the factories was $1,5(7 , * 444.001 In Iho mines there was Invested only 114.323 238 , while the factories represent JI.S29.S07 742. with a product of < 0 27S.33S.- 47(5.

Everything points to the largest vote In the history of Council Bluffs today. Up to last night the work of getting voters In shape was continued , and arrangements have been made for caring for any naturali zations that may come up today. Several hundred new voters have hern placed on the poll books In this way , The much-talked- of "sllont" voter is what Is giving the managers of both parties considerable con cern. The republicans arc confident of car rying the county by at least COO majority , and some good-sized bets Iiavo been made on a 900 margin The claims of the re publicans on the Ninth district are con servatively placed at 2500. at IcaiH the bet ting against Genung In favor of llager Is mostly at that figure. The chairman of the stole central committee. J. H. Wilson of Casey , Is claiming the district at 3,000. I. M. Trey nor. eccrctary of the- state cen tral committee , has come home to vote , and docsn t gn half way In the matter rt claiming the state. Iowa , he thinks will go at least SO 009 for McKlnley , these flg- uros being based on conservative polls He said yesterday that the chairmen of the countUs were all Inclined to make a poorer showing than really existed , for the purpose - pose of getting help from the state commit tee , and thlH estimate was based on their returns without any allowance for this feature. The free silver men have come out with a scare about an alleged plan to work a fraud by means of a marked ballot. It Is the samn old story of getting an ofilclal ballot and marking It for the voter , he changing it for the ne-w onp he receives from the judge , which In turn acts as his voucher for the J2 he U to receive for his vote. George W. Turner , chairman of the re- lubltean city central committee , said that he would give a reward of $100 for the con viction of any one caught trying to work any such plan as mentioned by the free silver men. He further added that every ofllclal ballot that could Lc found to be Il legally I'sued would be redeemed by the same reward. He branded the entire state ment as a falsehood and that It was but the preliminary howl of the defeated silver forces. The polls open this morning at 8 o'clock and clo e at C o'clock.

S Lipman , who plays Jim Iladburn. the sheriff In "In Mlzzoura , " Is an actor of merit Some few years ago , when Gus Thomas' first success , "Edith's Burglar , " was extended tea a four-act drama and called "The Burglar , " was put on the read Mr. L'prnan vvai selected to play the leading part. "In Mlzzoura" comes to Boyd's Thursday and stays three nights , with matinee Saturday. Denman Thompson's great success , "The Old Homestead , " will open at Boyd's tonight. The sentiment of "The Old Homestead" touches the purest wellsprlngs of human nature1. H presents a picture of a sorrow- ptrlckcn old man , who dreams of his wan dering boy ; of a lovable old lady , ever vvti ling to lend a helping hand ; of two old boys , who "for nigh unto thirty years" have been rivals In love , and who , at last , through the Instrumentality of Uncle Josh , stop "knock- Ing chips" off one another's shouldeis , an.I become firm friends ; of f , boy , who , having failed to find that contentment which he sought for In the great city , returns , like the prodigal of old , and titl.tB the farm on "tho coming New Year's day , " finding ther * that peace and happiness which are not vouchsafed for In the metropolis , of a tramp , reformed but why go Into detail ? The play- Is worth seeing again and again , and should It become an annual visitor for years to come It will still be esteemed a pleasure to ace once more. The pageant , "The Gathering of the Clans , ' will take place at the Crclghton theater for three nights , commencing Thuroday , Novem ber 5 The program Is a long and varied one , consisting In the main of dancing of all varieties characteristic of the nations that Iiavo made reputations an votaries of terpsl- ehore There will be Scotch dances- Irish dances , Spanish dances , Hans , with his wooden shoes , and the plantation darky with bin breakdown.

In comparison with the grand and un rivaled McKlnley demonstration that kept the city In a blaze of light and a roar of enthusiasm from the early evening hours until nearly 11 o'clock last night , the re ception to Candidate William J. Ilryan was a literal and unadulterated frost To be sure , there were between 3,000 and 4,000 thousand people assembled at the depot when his special train arrived , and there was an Interesting scene presented when he undertook to alight. Among the throng of people , however , were hundreds and hun- ddreds who will today cast their ballots In favor of sound money and the nation's honor , as was attested by the myriads of yellow badges which , depending from coat lapel or streaming from hat bunds , resem bled the mazes of a maple woods In the golden autumn tlmo , and the grand dlapasan of shouts and cheers which swelled niton the crisp air , as Nebraska's lllustrous son emerged from the car , were attuned about equally to the musical name of McKlnley and that cf Mr. Bryan. Curiosity was the magnet which attracted a third of the very ordinary crowd. This was made evident by the dullness that pervaded the atmosphere by the lack of hurrah and warmth might exncc * . Upon Tenth street the bulk ot the crowd awaited the Hey Orator's appearance , and when the four black horses and the open carriage , with Its fluttering emblems and colors did appear up the steep boarded In cline , another burst of cheers followed , and then to the Inspiring strains of the Twenty- second Regiment band , the line of march was taken up for Boyd's theater , via Tenth and 1'jniam streets , thence across Seven teenth to the Thespian temple , where the gentleman made his principal speech of the evening. HIS WAY TO BOYD'S. The mounted marshals and the band shewed theway. . Then came the convey ance of honor In which were Mr Bryan Judge Doanc , Dr. Mercer , Dr Link , and Jim Dahlman , followed by the carriages con taining the stale , citizens and JacKsonlan reception committees , the alleged Old Vet eran Bryan club , and a long , hctcrogonous and straggling procession of torch and color boarera. horn blowers and women and chil dren The old vets who nro driving them- s"lvcn Into the night sweats over their en thusiasm and spirit In Bryan's behalf , and who composed the club before mentioned numbered exactly thirty-six souls. Instead of a stalwart column of 350 , as we have been led to believe would bo seen In escort of the youthful elocutionist of the gurgling Platto. The drive through Farnam street with Its solid walls of shouting MKinley men , assembled and In vvaltlng for the gorg eous parade which shortly followed , was both picturesque and enjoyable , but the gen eral McKlnley pandemonium ithat filled the air must have fallen with an omnlous thud upon Bryan's strained atirlcujars. Boyd's cnre reached , and It looked In deed as If there wore a few silver freaks In the city. The palatial structure was packed from pit to dome , and the sure : In front for a distance of a hundred yards either way a seething sea of struggling.and yelling humanity. Policemen were power less and for a time It looked as if Mi Bryan's carriage would be picked up bodllv and carried away so tremendous and irrc- blsMble was the mad rush to BCO him. B : the greatest exertion entrance to the the ater was tbtalnc'l for the candidate and his immediate retinue But that was all. Not another soul could have found breathIng - Ing space within those terra cotta walls A thunderous wave vibrated through the house when Governor Holcomb strode for ward on the stajre and Introduced Mr Bryan , and It was several moments before a sulflclent subsidence cf the uproar was obtained to allow the gentleman's name to bo heard. In the bright glare cf the elec tric light Mr. Bryan looked badly. Ills handsome and classical face was pale and haggard , hlb usually gleaming eyes were next to lustorlcss , and ho looked generally as If he had passed through a hard vs In ter. He said HIS LA1 ? !

Ayo. more than that , they not only di not declare that thi- gold stnndard Is a good thing , but they expressly declare that It Is bad , by pledging to tiso every effort to get rid of the sold standard and sulotltute the double standard when other nations will help to do It ( Lnughtor nnd chcvr ) I rcpoat now what I have said so often , that If the gold standard Is good.

It cost Mr. Bryan an effort to say this , but it did not take him long , and In less than twenty-five minutes he was on the move again. With a rush the big crowd was emp tied Into the streets , and then It was a fran tic scramble of man , woman and child to see who could get to Farnam street first where the Bengal fires were painting both earth and heaven , and the roar of n.usketry and artillery were shaking the foundations of the universe as the McKlnley hosts trooped In columns , brigades and divisions along the great thoroughfare. Bryan was for the time forgotten Curiosity had been sated. A glance , a strain of his husky voice , that was enough To Washington hall he was driven In gloomy silence But on ar rival hero a ray of hope gleamed forth , but It IK doubtful whether It was of sulfle-7ent volume to fill Bryan's heart with a flood of light The hall was full to Its capacity , but that was all. There was no oversow on the sidewalk , no one In the streets H cost no effort to crawl down out of the rockaway and walk Into the house. And Inside , of course , there was an explosion of enthusi astic sound , but It was not unanlmoua enough and was cut short too quickly. It did not take Mr. Bryan long to wind up matters hero. Ho was through and hurry ing across the way to Germania hall In less than twenty minutes Here again he found the dimensions of the small enclosure well tested , and hero again was a spasmodic burst of applause. Nobody In the streets , no wild scenes of oxclto- mrnt on sidewalk or street But the distin guished party lingered a bit longer hero Fred Metr. er , Introduced Mr. Bryan , pre luding the act with one of his most felicitous and most grandiloquent addresses , and which. In fact , evoked fully as much ap plause as did the remarks that followed from the man hankering for a home on Potomac's slopy shores THItni : MOIIB KNDS IT. From Ciprmanla the partv was driven to Mctz'h hall on South Thirteenth street where another house full was awaiting him From this point ho returned up town , stop ping for a ten minutes' talk at Morand s Dancing academy , then across the street for twenty minutes with a packed audience In the Crclghton hall , ending with similar effort In the theater. There was n great rrovsd hero , and having had the cockles of their hearts warmed up by lucious sugges tions of "Gay New York" they grew mire responsive moro fervid and gave * Mr Brynn a right royal welcome , and somebody at tempted to smother him In an avalanche of chrysinthcmums. Governor Holcomh Introduced Mr. Bryan , and then after a twenty minutes' talk In which he said he closed the campaign , lie bid the cheering crowd a feeble adieu r.nd left the theater by the rear way. He was driven straight to the Paxton , hustled through the clamoring crowd that quickly began to assemble , up to his room nnd tea a rest ho so much needs and so well de serves. Mrs. Bryan , anxious , pale and care worn as her husband himself , was waiting to rece-lve him. They clasped hands , a whis pered word or two was exchanged , th n they turned and shook hands with a number of ladles who had crowded Into the room , but the reception was a brief one , and at last the last good nights were- said , and the. first act of the great drama was over. BKYAN STILL CONFIDENT. When Mr. Bryai. closed bis last speech his linen wes as wet from perspiration as tr it had l > cen put Ir. the bath tub , but ho was still buoyant and professedly as hope ful as he had ever been In the campaign. He declined to make any statement for publication as to his hopes of the outcome of tomorrow's contest. He said to friends , however , that he still felt absolutely con fident , and expressed the belief that to morrow's result would Justlfv his most san guine claims He exhibited with much In terest a telegram from Chairman Jones , ex pressing continued confidence. Mr Bryan had precede. ! me night's work with flftce'ii speeches made during the day at the following places , nil In the state of Nebraska- few art York , Aurora. Grand Island. Hastings. Harvard , Saronvlllc , Sutton - ton , Grafton Fairmont Hxetor , Friend , Dor chester , Crete and Lincoln. Ho had traveled during the day 2MO miles It had been Mr. Bryan's original Intention to speak In every congressional district in the state during the day , but this was found to be Imprac ticable and he entered only four of the six. M'KINLCY MKN HKAH HIM. YORK. Nov. 2. Seven o'clock this mornIng - Ing found Mr. Bryan speeding westward from Lincoln on his last day's v.ork of the campaign. The sun had not risen whn ho reached the special train which was to convey him on his trip , and there were only comparatively few people gathered about the depot to see him off These few , hov- o\er , gave * him an enthusiastic shout as the train pulled out , and ho began his labt day's campaign under favorable auspices. Tt-o first stop of the day was at the own tf Seward. This Is a republican place * , and there was an exceptionally large display of yellow badges , fully half of the crowd being decorated with the republican em blem. Mr Bryan was , however , reopect- fully received and he was listened to wlh marked attention. The appearance of the golden colors in his own state seemed to put the candidate on his mettle , and while ho talked for only ; about ten mlnute-s he delivered a very pointed address. Re ferring to the appearance of so many gold colors , he Intimated to his hearers that the proper material for the farmer to use who would display a gold badge was straw , for ho said under existing clrcumstancee Wall street gets your wheat and leaves you noth ing but the straw. Ills address was de voted largely to a denunciation of the Issue of bonds. Notwithstanding the largo num ber cf republicans present Mr. Bryan was liberally applauded. AURORA , Nov 2 As the day progressed Mr. Bryan's audiences began to swell In numbers and enthusiasm. At York , which town was reached at 9 o'clock , thousands of farmers were waiting the coming of the candidate and the enthusiasm was great. There were some yellow badges , but not neatly so many as at Seward. Mr. Bryan was introduced as the next president of the United Statcti , and he replied that If Ne braska furnished thn next president It de pended a great deal uron the people of Nebraska and hew they vote. This brought out a great cheer and assurances that the Htate was all right for him lie said that this yu > ar the people had tried an experiment in choosing a presidential candidate from west of the Mississippi river , and that some of the people of Ne braska uee-mcd to be very much afraid that there would bo a president fiom the west Ills speech was to the farmers and fund ready response with them. The train tlov.ed up is It went through Bradahaw , and the few hundred people aeacmbled at the depot cheered Mr. Bryan loudly. He stood on the back platform of the special car and bowed In response to the greetings. nnAciius HIS WESTERN LIMIT. AURORA. Nov. 2. Mr. Bryan had n big crowd at Aurora , but It Included a largo percentage of men wearing gold badges , which wore , however , moro contiplclous About the train than In the vicinity of the platform from which Mr. Bryan apuko.

Nov. 2 Thh was the extreme western point of the day's tour , as It Is the most western place visited by Mr Bryan duilng the campaign. Thcro was a big meeting at this plate. The attendance was large and the Bryan sentiment strong , Judging from the vociferous applause and the absence of gold badges. Mr Bryan talked for thirty minutes here , dwelling upon the Importance of Individual efforts at tbo polls tomorrow and saying that the result o ! the election might turn on the casting of one vote. He urged upon the agricultural clement to declare for the double standard as tbo most certain means of securing the return of prosperity , which was Impossible under existing circumstanced The applause at this place was frequent and at times deafening , the volume of sound being greatly augmented by the tooting of a largo steam thresher which had bei n rigged up for the occotilon.
