Parker, presidential candidate, on the
Democratic ticket at the last election,
will speak at the, Holllg theatre. This
will be the formal beginning of an ag
gressive fight which is to be carried n
without a letup until the day of elec

morning lroin San l-'ranclsco and will
be met and taken In charge by a re

pointed, consisting of Frederick H. Ho

W'llllam H. Holmes of Salem has
young fellow and universally popular,
and his many friends trust that his
second marriage will prove happier then
his first. He is one of the few English
men of title who married1 American
heiresses who cannot be charged with
having wedded for money. Though tho
father of his American bride, Mr. W'i-
nans, Is Immensely wealthy, still It is
to be doubted if his fortune is equal to
that possessed by the young baronet.
The mother of the latter was a daugh
ter of Sir Robert Loder. who left a
fortune of pome $30.000.nnti, of which
she received the larger share, and which
descended to her son.
