Bryan at Home

We  congratulate ourselves and also the fortunate posses sors of our catalogue on the fact that we alone secured a moving picture of the Democratic Presidential candidate-the only one in existence. This film was made at Mr. Bryan's home in Lincoln Nebr., and is a perfect and natural picture of this great man. Now is the time to obtain the benefit of this unique picture.

William Jennings Bryan, Democratic nominee for President of the United States, is presented to the readers of The Sunday Inter Ocean as he appeared at his home last Tuesday before he went to the ratification meeting of Populists and silver Republicans in Lincoln, Neb. Mr. Bryan was so busy thinking over his speech that he was reluctant to pose for the representative of W. N. Selig's Polyscope company, sent to Lincoln to procure pictures for The Sunday Inter Ocean.

The first thrown on the canvass was that of William Jennings Bryan at his home in Lincoln, Neb., receiving friends. The commoner could plainly be seen walking about his yard and shaking hands with his political friends.
