As the P.ryan train neared this city, travelling through the handsome suburban resi dence districts of Economy, Seawlck- ley and Emaworth. the dwellers In nearly all of their beautiful homes were In their doors waving handker chiefs. The meeting In this city has proved a fitting capsheaf of the day's triumph. It has excited the amazement cf the people of Pittsburg and the Joy It baa afforded Mr. llryan and the redoubta ble "Silver Dick" has manifested Itself in their beaming features since they struck the city limits. The exception ally long train on the Pennsylvania Central through which It was almost imiosslble to traverse during the last hundred miles because of the numerous committees and enthusiasts who had boarded and spread themselves out over the conveyances, ran Into the Pittsburg depot at :3Q p. m. It was immediately surrounded by acres and acres of frantic people. When Bryan emerged from the train. In spite of the efforts of the large lo cal committee to carry out Its pro gram, the crowd closed in around him and It w as a free-for-all . fight from that time on, for every person In the Hryun party except Mr. and Mrs. Bry an and Mr. and Mrs. Bland. W hen they entered their carriages the restless throng closed arrund them and seemed to bear them along with It. Along the various streets traveled no available space could te uiscernea. tvery loot of ground along the way was occupied by enthusiasts. When the Central Ho tel was reached a cordon of police w as stationed at the main entrances and forced a narrow passage way leading to the staircase. No one, was allowed to tread upon it except he could show unmistakable credentials. There were police on the stairs. In the halls, at the dining room, and everywhere else w here men and women might seek to go, and even at tne aoor oi uryan s room. While Mr. and Mrs. Bryan were sup ping with a committee of ladies and gentlemen, the streets resounded with continuous clamor from thousands of throats. Many marching clubs pierced the stubborn crowds amid showers of pyrotechnics and a roar that could have rivalled Niagara's thunders. An evening meeting had been announced to occur at 8 o'clock In the Grand Opera House and the Avenue Theatre, side by side. Each hall will seat between 2500 and 3000, and meet ings were held In each. Long before the hour for opnlng the doors the en tire street In front of these structures was packed full along the entire block. About , 100 policemen were on duty at the various entrances and in the course of the early evening there was an In cipient riot In i which one person waa severely beaten and some of the offi cers had their brass buttons torn off. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan and the mem bers of their party rode around from the hotel and entered the first hotel. Roth halls were packed to their full standing room capacity, ami It is said that half who applied had not been admitted. The crowd lingered outside In a noisy but peaceful disappointment, singing, cheering and burning red tire, and the tolerably heavy rain which came soon after the speaking began diminished It but little, the streets re maining full until the meetings closed. Mansfield, Ohio, August 10. The big gest crowd yet encountered since the Bryan train left Chicago was assem bled at Mansfield, the home of Senator John Sherman. Every foot of available space around the depot . for a distance of 200 or 300 feet was filled with scream ing, gesticulating men and women to the number of five or six thousand. The platform was carried by both men and women to the front end of the car and the crowd shouted frantically until Bryan came out and mounted It. James P. Seurd, of the citizens' commit tee, Introduced him. Bryan said he esteemed It a privilege to stand in the home of the senator who Is more re sponsible for the prsent financial poli cy of this country than any other liv ing In it. As the train moved away from the station the pressure of the crowd against the car seemed to threaten death to many people, but accidents .were avoided and a number of men came running several hundred feet to touch hands with the smiling senator of the plains. BLAND CALLS ON McKINLEY. Canton, August 10. Among the dis tinguished callers today on Major Mc- Klnley were Hon. R. P. and Mrs. Bland. They came here to meet the Bryan party.

IS THERE ANYTHING IN IT? A Water Witch Tried His Art at Green wood. For the past four years the Green wood Cemetery Association has made many efforts to And water on Its grounds, and during that time has sunk a number of wells without avail. All that has been lacking on these beauti ful premises to keep them In perfect order during the long dry season, has been a plentiful supply of water. At present it Is necessary to depend upon cisterns, which, of course, can carry only a limited supply. A water-witch came along Saturday and began telling of his prowess In other fields, and his story so Impressed several of the members of the associa tion that his services were engaged for the purpose of finding water at Greenwood. Two of the members took the gentleman out to the grounds and the prophet of son of a prophet, hav ing provided himself with a thin prog ed switch, shaped like the wishbone of a fowl, which he held between the thumb and forefinger of each hand, straight before his face, began his search for water. The slender switch swayed from one side to the other, and Its movements were followed by the ,..n..e -!.. 1. .. It I. I -t ,.. iiurty or tony leeu xne discoverer or the water claims that he has certainly located the light spot, and on the strength of his predictions, the associa tion at once commenced to dig another well. Contracts have already been let for the erection of a large windmill and tank and a system of distributing pipes throughout the grounds subject to the finding of water. The object of the association Is to keep the grass green the year around, and have plenty of water for irrigating the flower beds and shade trees. The question Is. will they ever get water in that section, where water has never before been found. The outcome of water-witch's predictions will bew atch- ed with Interest BACK TO HAMILTON. Hamilton's reports on finance and manufactures are classics, and should oe pmceo witmn reacn oi an tnought- ful citizens, and commended to the stu dents In all our higher institutions of learning.

There were not so many prostrations today aa on pre vious days of the present hot spell, a cool wind tempering the heat, and there are prospects that cooler weather will prevail for a time.
