Norman Gait DATE HAS NOT YET BEEN SET Echo of the Last City Campaign Reverberates Through City Hall "Find Your Niche," is Sunday's Advice to Noonday Club "When one man is running for office, declaring he will cffcmp the lid down tight, and another on a wide open plat form," said Billy" Sunday In a lightning-like speech to the Noonday club at noon at the Commercial club, "It Is an Insult to American manhood's decency to ask a man who he Is going to vote for." The speaker dwelt on the subject of decency, saying, "I don't care a rap whether I ever hold a public office or not, but I do care whether the fire of decency is extinguished In me or not. If some men can break some laws, then all men should be allowed to break the same laws, and If some men can break all laws, all men should be allowed to break all laws. It Is better to have a poor low enforced than a good law not enforced. It should be part of your re ligion to see that good laws and decent government prevail as much as It la your religion to go to church, shut your eyes and duck your bead when1 the preacher prays. "Find out the niche you can best oc cupy and then fill it. There are surgeons carving meat, and there butchers out in hospitals trying to operate for appen dicitis. Grant failed In a dozen lines of business before he became commander of the Union forces, yet at Appomatox one of the greatest generals In the world handed his sword to him. Greeley was a failure as a farmer, yet he made a great editor of the New York Tribune. "Find your niche and then occupy It with all your might" Bryan Men Meet . And Oppose Bryan LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 7. (PpecUl Tele gram.) A score or more of democrats. all of them ardent Itryan men, met here tonight und In the name of the Wilson and Marshall club of 1912 proceeded to endorse a poxtmastershlp candidate dif ferent than the one Indorsed by their former leader. There was no acrimony In the proceed ing, but one and all the speakers let It be known that sll democrats were en titled to do their own thinking and that Mr. Bryan's opinion was after all not necessarily their opinion. No anti-Bryan men took part. They stayed discreetly out of the affair, but some of them stood on the sidelines and enjoyed the spectacle of former admir ers of the Commoner quietly doing things in his name which they knew he wouldn't appreciate at all. Fred Shep herd, the acting postmaster, was the one put forward by this club. Sam Hud son la Ur. Bryan's candidate. W. B. Heater, the only Bryan spokesman pres. ent, urged that no action be taken, but Chairman Jake North of the county committee gave up a secret when he said that the January, 1911, indorsement of Charles W. Bryan for a portfolio In President Wilson's cabinet was gained at Prince Charles' own suggestion. George W. Berge let It be known that the meeting wasn't called in disrespect to Mr. Bryan, but' that all he had taught them in regard to freedom and expres sion of thought they were' now follow ing out, and that Bryan "would certainly not condemn them for It" (From a Ptaff Correspond mi L) WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.

During the late autumn she motored occasionally wltli the pres ident and Miss Wilson. When winter turned to spring Mrs. Gait became an almost dally visitor at the White House. Frequently she went with the president's party to the golf course and when the ball season opened she sat beside the president In the box.

Friends speak of her as being constantly sovght out aa a delightful companion, remark ing especially on her thoughtfulness and quick capacity for anything she choso to undertake. She Is not quite as tall as Mr. Wilson, has dark hair and dark eyes, and al ways 1st In stylish attire. Her tastes are said lo be strikingly similar to those of the president, with a deep interest In literature and charity work. Friends of the preslaent expressed their pleasure over the announrenvnt tonight, not only becauso of Mr. Wll on's personal happiness, but because they felt this new companionship would give him support and comfort In his home life a vital need during the. hours of ctraln over the nation s prob ems. With the marriage or his two daugh ters and the death of Mrs. Wilson more than a year ago, the president a life had become one of solitude. His absorption In official labors began to tell on him physically and when a few months ago hu began to take a renewed Interest In personal affairs his friends and members of the family welcomed the d.atlnct change which it brought about In his health and spirits. No word as to plana for the wedding wss said to be available aa yet, but It generally Is presumed that Mra Oalt, who Is of democratic tastes, will prefer a private wedding in her own home In stead of In the White House .

Grayson and Mlsa Bone In the White House parlors. The news was given out In a brief statement, which read: "The announcement was made today of the engagement of Mrs. Norman Oalt of this city and President Woodrow Wilson."
