No body's mad, though; everybody in th best of humor. I would just sit abou alter I got through my little plat form business, and listen to V? They don't mind saying what the are going to do, either. And I tej you the sentiment for Bryan is sonic I hing t remondous.'' The senator was sitting on ? sof in his room at his hotel here last nigh when 1 called on him. He had shu himself up in Ibis room for some ron son or other so thai al the desk i the hotel office the clerk said to m< "He isn't stopping hero." This wa strange, T had been told by a fricn that lie was there, and T so said I the (dork, "1 haven t seen him,'' h said. "Ho isn't slopping hero.' "Hasn't been hero?" 1 asked. "No,' ho replied, but as T was turning awai ho observed, "if you "will give me you card I will see if I can find him.1 The significant way he said I hi brought the card al once, and a fie the porler had once taken me lo th wrong room, to ex-Senator Welling ton, ol Maryland, with whom 1 wa forced lo talk for about fifteen mil ulos because lie had my card on hi table and thought it had been sent, t him, and another little wait T wn shown into the room of "Fiddlin liob, who was all smiles as ho usi all,\ is.

Judging by the way the people talk, - you understand," lie added. "I feel confident Indiana is going Democrattl ic. Nebraska is certain to go for - Bryan." And here he stopped. ? "IIow about Kansas?" I asked, r , "Upon my soul," lie answered, "I - believe Kansas will go Democratic." . Will Pull Republican Votes. "I heard numbers of men out there talk this way, 'I've been a Republican and have always voted the Re'> publican ticket, but I'm going to vote for Bryan. We've tried to down Bryan in every way because wo f thought he was not safe, that he 1 was all wind and that sort of thing, e but he just wiH not down. After I) both his overwhelming defeats lie has f shown himself a big enough man to V absolutely dominate the Democratic party and to keep up a big cnthusl iasm for him in all parts of the coune try. lie is far bigger today than he - ever was, and he always has had the r> interest of the people at heart, and s I'm just going t<> vote for him.

" Ho is Convinced. h That there is nothing new, as oths ers who have come from the West 1 have (old lis before, but (he Tennessee senator and lerlurer says he lias ^ heard so much of litis sort of talk lli;i( lie is convinced thai (lie country 0 is for Bryan. "The talk about Tennessee's going Bepublicau is ridiculous," he said when asked about his own Slate. "If (here is anything 1 do know if is - the Sln(.> of Tennessee, every couilt (v. every town and hamlet, every 1 rock and rill, vine ami figlree. audi I know the Democratic Stale of Tennessee will give Bryan a bigger majority than it lias ever given anyI) body in ninny a day. Oh. yes, I'm >, going out there to lake the slump. v I'm going to get up and (ell (he boys ii what's what and how's how." 11 The senator paid a high tribute to l' ex-Senator Carnuick, his opponent in I the race for (he Semite, and express' oil great pleasure that Carmack had again become the editor of a daily ' newspaper.

N ? s Huge Crowns and Brims Larger Than Ever. o ? At the lirsl fall opening of Ann-] strong, Cator & Co., held recently, ' we're shown (he advance styles of the lall season's hats. As on previous! r occasions the display was large and comprehensive, and many exquisite examples of fashionable millinery r were exhibited to Ihe admiring crowd e of buyers. >" 11 cannot be truthfully said, hows ever, that many of the fall styles in i- hats are individually beautiful. They is are only pretJ.y as compared with o other hats of ilia present. Indeed, the s millinery outlook is dark and gloomy, g There are murmurs of revolt against i- tho styles, and if Ilobson, the war like, were interviewed on the subject he might say the following: Prepare for war, prepare! Malta ready for carnage: get out the battleshisp and polish up the armor and the coats of mail. There is going to be a civic slrile. And the cause? The winter's hats! This broad land, this glorious nation that the politicians allude to so tenderly is going to be divided against itself, and, therefore, according to Aesop's fable, the number 2:5 must fall. Such a sad. sad strife, loo, as will overtake us! Mem united against women; sweethearts against lovers; wives against husbands, and sisters against brothers. And somewhere in the middle, to augment the feeling and stir up the I rouble, will be the milliners. 1*or, let it be said at once, the bats are broader, larger, taller and wider than I lie famous Merry Widows. Wei), it is a dire prophecy to mako when tlie weather is so warm, but an I eminent authority on the habit of (he sex masculine has said that the men will not stand larger hats. Of course, everybody knows there are reasons for such an assertion. In the lirst place, with the increase in size of the hat comes the increase in the bill?and that is a subject worth mentioning. Secondly, the nerve-racking, soul-piercing, altogether-hurtful propensities of the Merry Widows have already overstepped the patience that a mere man is said never to possess. An added inch to the width of a brim, an increased $1 to the bill will be the straw to swing the scales too far. Seriously speaking, though, the hats as seen (his early in the season are to be feared. Of course, the styles may change later and such freaks may fall by the wayside, but at present the out look is bad. To be truthful. there isn't any outlook; the bats leave-no room. Not onl\ arc the brims wider than la.-t reason, hut the crowns arc huge, monumental. colossal. Some of them are seven inches, others have the appearance of a stout leaning tower of Pisa. There are Tam-O'-Shanler crowns large enough to cover that well-known gentleman and his entire family. Some shapes resemble inverted kitchen utensils, such as I lie humble dishpau. ! 'iremen s helmets are quite popular, too, and derbies, the sort favored by t lie king el Kngland, and fell stovepipes are designed to adorn fair heads. lust bow little women and plump women and dowagers will look in these lopheavv concoctions is a subject loo portentous to contemplate. Picture an inverted dishpau with a 21-inelt brim and an 8-inch crown resting lightly on a person five feet tall! And they will all wear them, of course. They will find the biggest 1 hey can. They will be l.nughcd at by their brothers, j.-ked about !>y the j carP'tini-i - and :!.<> t'nnny men. and ma\ be ! here will he thai dire revo]1 I mei:!iencd |irevionsly. So h>ng as the revolution is only mentioned, however, there is no serious danger and it is well to know a few nP 1 lie fads, even if their adoption forebodes ill. There are some lovely colors, such as nile blue, a lovely deep delft blue, taupe, 4he old smoked gray, or elephant's breath, masquerading under a new name, and rosewood, a shade that is a cross between mahogany and old rose. M.)st of the hats flare up sharply on the right or left side, and the number of large crowns is marked. Tn increase the size of the crowns, the newest device there is in the collar elVec.t of wings, finished off with a big cluster of large wings at the front or left side. This collar effect is seen often, too. in cascades of quilled ribbon and ostrich plumes. The new method of trimming is directly in tinfront or at the right side, and the fancy quills and aigrettes are frequently stood perpendicularly againsl (he crown. Some of the crowns shope as do (he milk pail and others flare out and puff. The buckles that are to he such a feature of the season are mammoth, to correspond with the crowns. Some of (hem are six and eight inches long, Among the popular felts will be that short nap beaver, and velvet and satin and the new Ottoman silk will be used in combination on brims and crowns. Fancy braids and trimmings, some passementerie effects, and cretonne will be arranged on many of the ha Is. Persian effects will still be popular. As a contrast to the huge lials there will he worn also some jaunty little toques, close-fitting and trimmed with quills and soft curling plumes. The directoire hat is the fad of the the fall and winter. It is like the familiar mushroom sailor and is finished with long frienged loops of ribbon fastened on each side of the edge of the.brim and arranged to lie under the chin or to orm a band effect around the neck ami drop down over the shoulder.?Haiti more Sun.
