"The cable car conductors have n new
scheme, or, rather, one of them has," re
marked a joung ludy to me yesterday.
'or course, jou know the old story about
women getting on the cars with nothing
but a Ss bill, nnd.the conductor can't
change it, or if le can, he gives her all
nickels and that sort of thing."
"Well, I was down town shopping this
morning and boarded a Seventh street
car nt E street. When the conductor came
by I found I had only three pennies and a
55 bill. He couldn't change the bill and
handed it back with an air of disgust. I
suggested that he stop the car and let me
get off at M.irket space, but he seemed
bent on embarrassing me, and in a loud
voice so that all the, passengers on the
car could hear said: "Oh, no; never mind.
I have paid jour fare,' nt the same time
tearing off a bit of cardlioard with his
name and number and handing me with a
great flourish.
" 'If I would hand that with the money
to any old conductor it would reach liim,
ho said. But he hadn't registered the
fare,, and I was bound to pay lilni, even
if he did beat the company. I got the bill
changed nt tie Market Bank and trans
ferred to the Georgetown car, whose con
ductor said lie never heard of any such
arrangement, but took the cardboard and
the nickel.
"Oh, jes, likely as not the second con
ductor kept the money."

utiuulnted for only two weeks.
On Sunday last they met at lhe house of
Miss lluricy.217 BastThlrty-necond street,
and there begun to discuss each other's
past lives. To the horror nod astonishment
of hot Ii, they found that they were brother
and sister.
There was, before thowar, a prosperous
merchant living in Buffalo niimecl Jumes
Benedict. When the war broke out lie en
listed in a Buffalo regiment, and at the

an untie of the children, then a wealthy
gold miner of thatBtate.
But ou the nay fever broke out among
the travelers, ami Mrs. 1 Ienc.il let succumbed
to tl.e disease. The children, of wi.oin tile
oldest was six jear iold, were taken care
of by some of tLe other travelers, to bo
landed over totheir uncle when Sun Frnn
eiseo was reached. But the uncle could not
be found in California, and they wcresub-
seauently adopted by the travelers who had
agreed totakecare of tlem.
A Mr. Wilfred IlHlton adopted the boy,
and at tho request of his protector, the

taken care of by'u family named Harvey

"Mr Brjan was akcd if he would set at
rest once and forever, ill the rumors that he
was a member or the A. P. A or ot t he
Junior Order or American Mechanics.
" '1 have heard such rumors," Mr. Brjan
replied 'I haverc-ruse-Jto bcinttrviewedbn
that and other eiueslious because reporters
sometimes do not report me iorrcctlj-,and
I will be heard on all those eiue-stlous
shortly in public speeches.'
'The people of Kansas City are anxious
to know about it," he was told. Mr. Brjan
Iookedcijt untie car window a moment and
replied:
i am not a member of the A. P A..nor
never was a member. You can say that
positively.'
' 'Are you a member of the Junior Or
der:' " -I am not. nor never was. I am not a
member or anv organization or society that
links religion with iolltlcs in any waj"
'And, further, in oriie-r that no iiosslble
injustice might be done and the views
of W. J. Brjan be fullj- ascertained re
garding the principles of our order, the
letter following was sent Mm, which, taken
together with his auswer thereto, cicarlv
shows he Is not a friend or our order and

such charges as false. I desire this in
