ATLANTA’S DISTINGUISHED GUEST. HON. WM. ,T. BRYAN. FAMOUS CROSS OF GOLD SPEECH WHICH SECURED THE NOMINATION Excerpts From Mr. Bryan’s Chicago Oration. J Perhaps never In the history of American politics 'did one speech so vearly make a man's reputation as that 'silvered at the Chicago convention of 1898 by William Jennings Bryan. Al though Mr. Bryan's part In the con gressional debate on the repeal of the Hhermun law In 1MW3 made him known all over the country, the effect of tho Chicago speech Map electrical and transformed nil undreumed of candi date Into the Democratic presidential nominee. From this Introduction, which by its supreme dignity and force iinmedlat ♦ wilderness, who have made the desert to bloom ns the rose—the pioneers away out there (pointing to the West), M ho rear their children near to nature's heart, where they can mingle their voices with the voices of the birds— out there where they have erected school houses for the education of the young, churches where they praise their Creator, and cemeteries where rest the ashes of their dead—these peo. pie, gve suy, are ns deserving of tho consideration of our party as any peo ple In this country. It Is for these that we speak. We do not come as aggressors. Our Mar Is not n war of conquest; we nro fighting In defense of our homes, our families, and pos terity. We hove petitioned, and our l»etltlons have been scorned; we huve entreated, and our entreaties have been disregarded: we have begged, and they have mocked when our calamity came. We beg no longer; we entreat no more; we petition no more; we defy them. “The gentleman from Wisconsin has said that he feared a Robespierre. My friends.

We object to bringing this question down to the level of persons. The Individual Is hut an atom; he Is born, he acts, hb dle*;*but principles are eternal; and this has been h contest over a principle." Then ufter plunging Into the history of the silver movement among the Democratic party, he warmed up In oratorical fervor: “Ah, my friends, we say not one word against those who live up the Atlantic coast, but the hardy pioneers have braved all the dangers of the “They tell us that this platform Mas made to catch votes. We reply to them that changing conditions make new Is sues; that the principle^ upon which Democracy rests are as everlasting as the hills, but they* must be applied to new conditions as they arise. Conditions have arisen and we are here to meet these conditions." "You come to us and tell us that the great cities are In favor of the gold standard; we reply that the great cities rest upon our broad and fertile prai ries.

If they dare to come out In the open field and defend the gold standard as a good thing, we will tight them to the utter most.

AT THE THEATERS MONDA Y, SEPT. 24, 1906. GO OUT AND SELECT YOIIR LOT AND ATTEND THE SALE FORREST 4: GEO. ADAIR. ANSLEY BROS. CHARLES M. ROBERTS. Murray & Mack. The program omits the authorship of "Around the Town," which Murray & Mack have chosen for their instrument of torture this season. After the per formance at the Grand Wednesday night, It was strongly suspected that nilte Mack wrote It himself, with the assistance of the bell boy. It Is the limit, and then some. But a long-suffering public,'forget ting what the two are now in the mem ory of what they used to be, might forgive them hud they not ventured too far. It didn't matter much Mhat they did to the comic Hongs of toduy— nobody could make them much worse— hut when Gladys Van butchered "Be lieve Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms,” it was too much. There are some things even the downtrodden public cun not suffer In silence. Why did they let her do It? The two Ms have surrounded them selves with a score of accomplices, In haling a mild-mannered man with n voice rather asthmatic In Its lou'er notes and decidedly wobbly at the top. He continued the carnage by rendering "Dearie" In a mhv which brought tears to all music lovers. Thera mbs a time hen one might welcome Murray Mack with a certainty of seeing pret ty girls In number and hearing plenty of new Jokes, even though no one expected anything hut mugh-and-tum- ble methods. But a spot light and u search warrant wouldn't find any this season. D. G. Earthquake Story. While there were many sad features to the Ban Francisco disaster, It'had its funny side as well. Every day some laughable incident Is related as having taken place during the trembling of the earth on the Pacific coast. One of the funniest incident* and one actually en acted Is being told by Al. G. Field, the minstrel, who will appear Friday and Saturday nt the Grand. “It was during the seismic disturb ances in ’Frisco," runs the story. "The ground was trembling viciously and an old darky, panic-stricken, ran from his cabin on the outskirts of the city. He dropped on his knees In the road and cried out. *Oh, Lordy! Lordy! sen yo' son down yere. Bumpin' terrible am gwfne to hup|>eu in a minute.* At that instant the earth trembled aguin and two small brick buildings on the oppo site side of the street fell with a crash. The old daikv dropped to the'ground | again, and cried out louder than be fore. 'Gli, Lordy! L* ;*dy! Doan' yo PICTURE OF WM. J. BRYAN AT SI. LOUIS CON VENTI ON BY JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES Following the national Democratic convention In Bt. LouIm In 1904, when Judge Alton B. Parker waa nominated for president to oppoee Roosevelt, Hon. John Temple Graves, who was In at tendance upon the convention, wrote from Bt. Louis his Impression of Wil liam Jennings Bryan—the overtowering figure of the occasion. In that tribute to the great Nebraskan he said: “But all tributes and all orations In the great historic' assembly of dele gates and people fade Into Inslgnlfl- cance beside the continuous popular Idolatry that followed William J. Bry an. It waa not only one time, but every time; not upon special occasions, and upon the slightest provocation any suggestion of him swept the vast as sembly Into a storm. Kvery mention of his name waa magical. The sight of his Impressive flgure was u signal for the wildest enthusiasm, and he alone was potential to still the storm which his slightest word let loose. Took Bryan to Still the Storm. “Time and time again, when the Democratic chairman and the sergeant at arms, and the officers, and the po lice. were simply as leaves In the temp est of popular excitement, one lifted Anger of the great Nebraskan could bring almost Instant stlllnesa to the turbulent enthusiasm which all the or ganized forces of the Democratic con vention could not control. "No man ever saw Bryan—the real Bryan—unless he saw ‘ him at St. Louis. Those who have seen him else where have seen the great but tranquil teacher, preaching In patience and bid ing his time. Those who saw him. at St. Louis saw Bryan at his best and greatest, with all the lion aroused by opposition and offense, and all his mar velous eloquence winged to Its loftiest flight by 'the occasion end the emer gency. -And to have seen Bryan at his best was to have seen the world's best At his best. “For no men living and few men dead have ever looked upon so peerless an orator, so Incomparable a master of assemblies as Bryan at St. Louis. Ths delegates before him were Iron, pledged, predetermined. Inaccessible and Immovable. Men could have been selected from that vast assemblage, w ith open minds and uninstructed wills, and given an hour to this matchless lender of men. and he could have swayed and led them as Demosthenes moved the Athenians to 'march against Philip, to conquer or die.’ “When the student of oratory In art, or the student of popular leadership In expression, seeks In the future an Illustration to make Immortal on can vas or In description, he will And the Ideal In the great Nebraskan, who was the unchallenged and uneqitaled hero,of the Democratic convention ol 1904 * SOME OF MR. BRYAN'S MOST POPULAR STORIES William Jennings Bryan Is a good story teller. Besides punctuating his speeches with homely anecdotes he en livens his conversation by recounting stories possessed of the merit of having a good point. Me. Bryan's stories fall Into two classes: Those he has. gleaned at home and the recent acquisitions from foreign sources which he carefully se lected and stored away for future ref erence during his trip around the globe. The anecdotes that smack of the red soil of Nebraska are the best for po litical apeeches. The tales that came to him In Japan, India or Turkey he reserves for the private ear of his friends. In his speech at Newr Haven and again In Newark Mr. Bryan used an anecdote to Illustrate what Mr. Bryan says the Republican party has been doing to excuse its failure to curb the trusts When he launches this yarn he pulla down the corners of his mouth In a qulszleat manner, affects a drawl and slowly moves his head from side to side as If his waa the task to recite the obituary over the body of one late ly departed. There was once a man," goes Mr. Bryan's story, “who was sued In court for returning with a crack across the bottom of It a kettle he had borrowed from a neighbor. The neighbor waa very angry. "The man who was sued put up three defences. First he said that he hadn't borrowed the kettle. Then, when that failed he said that the ket tle was cracked when he Borrowed It. And finally when his second argument was disproved he Said that he had mended the crack before he returned the kettle. •And that,” concludes Mr. Bryan, "Is the way the Republican party defends Itself against the charge of not keeping Its promises on the subject of trust reg ulation." The Nebraskan's argument that the Republicans draw campaign funds out of the pockets of the men who find the high tariff to their advnntnge he finds well illustrat'd by a story which Is not nltogethci new. After explaining his belief that no Republican dare touch the present tariff for fear of of fending Ihoso who, he alleges, contrib ute the monay for the campaign work, Mr. Bryan tells the following: There was once a man who went Into a clothing store. He stole a roat and started to run down the street. The clothing dealer hurried out Into the street and shouted ‘Btop thief I’ but the thief would not slop. "Then the clothier appealed to a po liceman and the policeman ehouted Stop thief!' but the thief would not stop. Then the policeman drew his revolver and shouted to the fleeing thief, 'Stop or III fire!’ Then the ex cited clothier cried out to the police man: Shoot him In the pants; the coat belongs to me I' So there you are.” concludes Mr. Bryan after reciting this anecdote. "The Republican party don't dare to shoot the thieving trusts In the coat, because the coat belongs to them. They don't dare to shoot the trusts In the pant* because the pants belong to them. They don’t dare to shoot any where. for fear of hitting something that belongs to them." Mr. Bryan sometimes makes Jokes at the. expense of himself and of the Is sues on which he has met defeat. While he was being taken over to Newark on the third day of his stay In New York he told the newspaper men thla tale: "My former campaigns and the re sults that came of them remind me of a man who came out to Nebraska to take up a farm," said he. 'This man was a greenhorn and he did not know much about the cyclones that some times visit our prairies. But he had some sort of wisdom. "He put a strange looking wooden fence about Ills place that looked like a ehleken coop. It was built In a, tri angular shape. A farmer drove by when thla greenhorn was putting up his fence and commented upon Its ap parent Instability. ”;Why, the first good wind that comes along,* he said, 'will blow your fence over like jackstraws.* '"OB, all right,' said the greenhorn, who was also an optimist. 'My fence la five feet broad at tho bottom and four feet high. If It blows over It will be a foot higher than It Is now." "That's what I hope my political fence Is like," said Bryan, with a laugh. Another Bryan story wns lifted bod ily by Congressman Lents In his speech at Now Haven on August 31. Mr. Lentz was busy holding the crowd until Mr. Bryan should appear from the meeting of the New England Dem ocrats In the Tontine Hotel, across the street, ao the use of the Bryan thunder was, perhaps, permissible. There was once a funeral out In Nebraska—so runs the yarn—and the f ireacher who had been asked to de- Iver the eulogy was a stranger In town anti did not know the departed sister very well. So after he had said all that he could he suggested that If anybody else could say n few words about the poor dead sister It would be a good thing to say them. Three or four of those who had known the deceased In her lifetime made appropriate remarks. Then there \vas a pause. At last one old brother rose and said: "Well. If we're all through speaking about the departed sister, I will now make a few brief remarks on the tariff.” Mr. Bryan enters Into the spirit of his stnrlesvwlth great gusto, gesticulat ing with his hands and modulating his voice to suit the periods. His eyes arc expressive: they light up before the point of the story Is reached and his play actor's mouth trembles Into a smile. When the point of the story comes each word Is enunciated slowly and distinctly with a lingering emphasis on each as If the narrator waa loath to come so soon to the end of his tale. After he had been Interviewed for the Inst time by the newspaper men who had followed him about on his Jour neys out of New York, Mr. Bryan, memboring that he waa once a reporter and not forgetful of tho difficulties that sometimes beset the path of the Inter viewer. told the newspnper men nhout how he was once Interviewed In a rapid fire manner In Louisville, after he had been defeated the second time for the presidency. • "A young man bustled up to me with his pad all ready," said Mr. Brynn, "and announced that he had been sent by his city editor to Interview me. '* 'Mr. Bryan, are you going to run again for president?' he asked. '"Well,* said /, 'In view of the fact that I have been defeated within two weeks It would be hard to answer that question.' " 'All right, scratch that. Now, Mr. Bryan, what will be the next plntform of the Democratic party?' " 'I certainly am not In a position to tell.’ "He drew another line through his pad. " *Now, Air. Bryan, what person do you think will be available to run for president on the Democratic ticket If you do not run again?' " 'Again I can not answ er that ques- tton,* I replied with earnestness. '"All right, Mr. Bryan; much obliged; pleased to have met jvju; good-by.' "Now, there was a man who had done what he had been told to do,' concluded Mr. Bryan with a heart: laugh. The Commoner* relates with great glee one Incident that befell him in Jn- pan. He went to one of the temples In Toklo to see the shrines of some of Ja pan's ilepnrted statesmen. It was at Shiba park, where the most beautiful of the Tukugawa temples are located. This was the first Japanese temple that Mr. Bryan had ever visited. He was accompanied by several dignitaries of the municipality of Toklo. who had come to act os an escort of honor. At the temple door the Japanese gen- LIFE INSURANCE Do you contemplate in surance) Write me for ‘‘inside proposition. ” Money saved is money made. Best old line com pany. ' Address P. O.

The Bijou offering, "A Wife’s 8ecret," may well be classed with the most pop ular attractions of the season at the Marietta street play house. It presents a most attractive story which sets forth a powerful moral. As a picture of real, breathing human life the play com mends Itself to theatergoers. The role of leading Interest Is that of the young wife of the rector portrayed by Grace Hopkins. She Is turned out of a happy home because of fancied wrong-doing and the husband will not listen to an explanation, being prompted by the voice of fe spinster sister, who Is the chief mischief-maker. The Interest Is sustained throughout the four acts ami It Is only during the Inst five minutes of the play that the final denouement of the story Is given out. Better pleased audiences than those who are attending the performance this eek have seldom witness*! n drama at Mary Marble and Little Chip. The latest musical comedy New York BUccess, "Wonderland,” by Victor ’.Her bert and Glen MncDonough, produced and staged by Julian Mitchell, will be the attraction at the Grand next Mon day and Tuesday. The plot of "Wonderland" la based upon a German fairy story of the Brothers Grimm .and tells of eight princes who are given to wandering over the' land as they usually do In fairy tales. They live In an enchanted tastle and through the love philters of a Doctor Fax, a specialist on affairs of the heart, they wrin the affections of the eight charming daughters of the King of Herat.
