Special to the DAILY TRANSCRIPT. “PATRIOTISM, PROTECTION, PROSPERITY.’ REPUBLICAN TICKET. ~ FOR PRESIDENT, WILLIAM McKINLEY OF OHIO. FOR VICE PRESIDENT. GARRET A. HOBART OF NEW JERSEY. AN INTERESTING MERTING. Hon. F. X. Schoonmaker. Delivered a Grand Speech Last Night. . Last evening’s Republican meeting at the Theater in this city was a very interesting one, moreso in some respects than any held here during the present campaign. Frank Dennis, President of the McKinley Club, called the meeting to order and announced the selection of the officers of the evening. E. B. Power acted as Chairman and in a few neat remarks stated the object of the meeting and introduced the speaker of the evening, Hon. F. X.Schoonmaker of Plainfield, New Jersey. The talented gentleman had not spoken many minutes before his hearers became impressed that they were listening to a man who had closely studied the important-issues that are néw before the people of the United States, and who was equally well posted on the principles and policy of the different. parties. His manner was pleasing, his style vigorous, and his. arguments strong and convincing. His explanation of the tariff and its effects was a clear and comprehensive statement of that question. .On the question of free coinage his arguments were made plaia and forcible: by apt illustrations of what the results would be if free and unlimited coinage of, silver was ordered by the Government. The speech throughout was highly interesting, and two or three times when the speaker intimated that he had’ spoken long enough and was about to close, he. was urged to continue by cries of “go on!” The speaker was given the closest attention, all the audience being interested in his remarks, and every one agreeing that he is one of. the best and most. entertaining political speakers that has ever visited this city. He aroused much enthusiasm and was frequently applauded. We are satisfied that Mr. Schoonmaker’s speech did much good for the Republican party, as we firmly believe that many wavering Democrats who heard him talk are now determined to cast their votes for McKinley and protection. This was Mr. Schoonmaker’s first speech in California, He has been engaged to stump this State, and will speak in all the cities and larger towns. He is an able speaker and is sure'to meet with favor everywhere. Strike in the Mayflower Mine. An important strike was made in the Mayflower mine at Forest Hill last week, which adds another chapter to Mr: Chappellett’s history of intelligent work in’ managing this well-known. mine, says the Colfax Sentinel. There is no doubt but this is an extension of the famous Paragon lead. It will take several days’ time cross-cutting and drifting to determine the full importance of the strike, A vein of quartz two feet in thickness and bearing free gold in considerable quantities has . recently been discovered in the Sailor gravel mine at Sailor Canyon. —+-2ee Suffrage Club. At Maybert on Friday evening, Oct. Ist, Mrs. Maude Peaslee organized an Equal Suffrage Club. Meetings will be held twice a week, when the subject of woman’s rights and other political questions ofthe day are to be discussed. The club has alarge membership and the following were elected officers: J.A. Lipman, Pres.; Henry C. Tully, Vice Pres.; Mrs. W. H. Cook, Sec.; Miss Ida E. Hitchcock, Treas. ——-—+-+@0 Looking For a Job. Here is a good story: An employer asked his porter, Mike, how he was going to .vote. Mike answered that he was going to vote for McKinley, “Why” exclaimed the employer, “I thought you were a Democrat.” “Yes responded Mike, “I am a Democrat but I won’t of a man that has to run all around the country to get a job.” You Can’ Boy Happiness, but if you are suffering from dyspepsia, scrofula, salt rheum, impure blood, you may be cured and made happy by taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla.

Tr’s bad enough for men to go out alMeekton, indignantly. “There’s a good deal going on down town now,” her husband said. Every one is discussing public questions now, and I hate to miss any of it.” “But what makes men stay out till 1 or 2 o'clock in the morning?” “Henrietta, do you want me to tell . ; you the cold, solid truth?” “Yes.” 6 ; “Well, a good many of us don’t do anything between half-past ten p. m: and half-past one a.m. but sit up and worry about what we're going to say to our wives when we get home.” DINERS Be EE By My husband has got into the habit of talking ‘in his sleep, and I find itan awful nuisance.” : “But just think of the chance you have to learn his secrets.” “Secrets! He doesn’t talk about anything but the silver question.” ——— HYPNOTIZED THE BEARS. A Story Which Newsome Believes Because Anderson Is Cross Eyed. J. E. Newsome is a Port Arthur Ca‘nadian and Alex Anderson comes from Pearl River. An. Englishman named Atwell wanted to geta bear, and An derson tried to gratify his desire. Newsome told: Forest and Stream about it. Atwell was the kind of man who would like to kill a bear in a trap, so Anderson took*two bear traps and a lot of bait up a gully near Ouimet, looking for asign. The Englishman went looking for bears and left Anderson to set the traps. peared before Anderson at the foot of a tree between a couple of whose roots one trap was to have been set. Not having any gun, Anderson, so Newsome says, determined that hypnotic force had to be used, and that ly. Anderson looked the bear in the eyes, and the bear paused; then Anderson made three passes with his handa The bear leaned its head forward and its eyes bulged out. Having satisfied himself that the bear was properly influenced, Anderson yelled for Atwell, but Atwel) was a good way off, and before he could arrive tho she bear’s 32-year-old and yearling cub came ont of the tree at the same time. A yearling cub alone would be a pretty bad fighter at close quarters, especially: with a hypnotized. mother bear near by liable to come to at any moment, but a 22-year-old cub and a yearling both at once made a mighty terious matter. : But Anderson was fully equal to the emergency. He managed to look at the bears’ four eyes at once and soon: had} them su Newsome says that he would not have believed Anderson’s tale only Anderson is now cross eyed. sired. aligns / which he wasn’t beings, omit Ae, ble yoat b a eae en is RISSEL, PREs. looking both bears eyes at once, nrified by Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the E.
