time TO spare proposed 20 take in the Republic
an convention on his way to Chicago. The ex.
act date set for holding this great political meet
ing had escaped him, but catching sight of SEN
ator Allison as he sat on sofa in the Senate
cloak-room, he strolled over and inquired Of him
the day and hour.
"H-m, let mo see,r said Allison, reflectively;
81 think IL Is some time early in June. but the
exact date has slipped my memory. Hawley

recall the date just at this moment. Somewhere
along about the middle of June; but. upon my
word, forget its exact date. Seems TO me it's
the 18th or l6th-perhaps a little earlier. BY
the way, Senator Sherman over there can tell
you exactly" Bowen was growing tribe
