You hall not cruelty mankind upon a cross of sold." ard. Tbe mighty chasm widened at the convention. Congressman Richard P. Bland of Missouri, "Silver Dick," the old war horse of the free silver coinage movement was tbe logical apparently the Inevitable candidate and for the presidency. His nomination seem ed to be a certainty until a thing hap pened hitherto unprecedented in Amer ican politics. Bryan of Nebraska, known as "the sliver tongned orator" and "the boy orator of the Platte," mounted the plat form and delivered a brief but bold and masterful speech. His vibrant voice rang out over the heads of the 15,000 persons In the vast hall, cne- tratlng with clarion intonation to the farthest corners. The customary up roar of a great political convention, which the strongest of oratorical lungs. as n rule, cannot quell entirely, was 1 hushed Into (inbreathing owe. No such eloquence ever before had been heard In a national convention. ihe man and the occasion had met and the man bad mastered the occasion. The ad- dress was an impassioned appeal for bimetallism and an exalted glorifica tion of the new Democratic financial I doctrine. When the orator closed witn his epoch making metaphor of "the cross of gold and crown of morns the enthushisUc approbation of his sentiments nnd of the man himself was Indicated by a whirlwind of ap plause beyond description. . ...i it'tili.n.

Flashed to the remotest reaches of the nntlon, the news wns the most sen sational political titbit that ever took the wires. Bryan wns but one year above the minimum age required by tbe constitution of tbe United States for a president While some of his speeches in congress n few years tie fore had given him a momentary repu tation, be was practically unknown to the nation at large, and particularly so to the great eastern section nf the country. Never leforo had a great party nomlnnted for president a man living west of the Mississippi river. Never before had so young a man been nominated. Never before had an orator won tbe great prize by a single speech. Democrats. Republicans. Pop- i ullsts, everybody wondered bow the newcomer would conduct himself ln j the campaign. i Presently the wonder turned to amazement. Young Mr. Bryan was a campaigner-there was no doubt as to that He Injected Into American poll- , tics a presidential campaign such as ntinn navor knew before. Men ' called It a wliiriwln ' campaign, and such It wns The wl wind road was tbe railroad and it carried the candl- date up and down ami acrossune lani upon na ntnazlnff sclipJule of traveling and taU'ltiff.

Bryan's first appearance In the east was on the 12th of August, when be for ulea rroni sunstroke during the day. at Bryan read that speech from manu script, a disappointing thing, for It de tracted greaUy from bis eloquence. Put the candidate was well aware that great Issues hinged upon bis utterances on that Important occasion, and be did not care to trust himself to tbo un curbed enthusiasm of tbe moment With Arthur Sewall of Maine, the vice presidential candidate, Bryan went dwn to defeat at the November elec tion, though be bad been nominated also by the Populist party, with Thomas E. Watson of Georgia as the vice presidential candidate on that ticket McKlnlcy and liobart went I Into office, and there were those who predicted that Bryan was forever elim inated from the Democracy. Four years later at the Democratic national convention ln Kansas City Mr. Bryan was renominated by accla mation. There was absolutely no other candidate suggested for the nomina tion. For vice president Adlal E. Ste venson of Bloomlngton, 111., who had been vice president during Cleveland's second term, was named. The war with Spain and our consequent acquisi tion of the Philippine Islands had brought new Issues Into politics, but tbe silver plnnk was reinserted Into the Democratic platform, Mr. Bryan declining to stand for tbe nomlnntlon without it It was expressly declared the NEW PICTURE OF In the platform, however, that Imperial Ism was the paramount Issue of the campaign. The Democracy opposed the forcible subjugation of the Filipinos and the control of the archipelago In the colonial style of the British empire.

He was at his home In Lincoln on election day, ate an early dinner, went upstairs at about 6 o'clock and slept soundly until 11, when be came down and discovered that he was badly beaten. He smiled to tbe assembled reporters, returned to his bed and slept soundly until morning. It was said by those present that he evinced not the slightest sign of disappointment Mr. Bryan did not seek tbe nomina tion in 1104. He was quite willing for the disaffected wing of the Democracy to name the ticket Just to see If that element could do better than the other. He attended the convention In St Louis as a delegate, made an amazing fight for a platform upon which he and bis supKrters eould stnnd and won tbe Dght by sheer force of brain and brawn. He arose from Ills bed on the early morning of the Inst day of the convention, though threatened with pneumonia, and Just as the dawn was breaking over the city be delivered MR. AND MRS.

The discovery of vast deposits of gold ln Alaska and elsewhere since tbe free silver campaigns has eliminated tbe money Ishiic from politics. Mr. Bryan bus accepted this fact and now stands upon other Democratic Issues. Despite nil opposition, he bus domi nated the national Democracy for twelve years. For several years past he has given expression to Ills views in the weekly Journni, tile Commoner, which he established at Lincoln. He lias removed to a line farm near Lin coln, built a commodious residence nnd becomo known throughout the world as Ihe "great American commoner," titular successor to Henry Clay. He has traveled around the world and written his impressions for a syndicate of American newspapers. He has been for years the most popular aud highest paid lecturer on the American lyceuin and Chautauqua circuits. It is said that bis Income from lecturing alone Is as much as $.,000 a year, the presi dent's salary. Mr. Bryan Is a total abstainer from ilcohol and tobacco. He Is a Ineuiber of tbe Presbyterian church und never workji on Sunday, save to deliver a re ligious address now and then. His Meal IsOmoraltty, persal, political and civic.
