objects to the effort of creditors to have it
declared an involuntary insolvent on the
ground that if such is done and the prop

THEIR TURN NOW.
Democrats Wire. Pulling for the
State Convention.
What Is Said About the Cardidates-Ronors
showered on Colonel Markham, the
Republican standard-Bearer.

Estimates of Democratic politicians place
Coleman in the lead on the first ballot for
Governor in the Democratic State Conven-
tiop. with English a close second. Coleman
and English each claim 200 votes for them
selves among the country delegates. Both
these estimates are doubtless, excessive; but
English's friends concede 10 country dele
gates to Coleman, coming mostly from the
southern counties.
Coleman's friends place his interior vote
at $50. 1t is probable that he VIII muster
175 votes in the convention from districts
outside of San Francisco. The tngllsh vote
will be at about the same figure
Coleman and English will thus come to
the San Francisco delegation with about an
even thing OF it; but it is with the San
Francisco delegation that Coleman gets his
main strength. The city delegation. it is
sand. will be divided about as follows: Cole
man 70. English 80, Pond so and the other
u yotes scattered between Paulsell, Berry
and Jones'
Thus it will be seen that Coleman will
begin the fight in the convention with $50
yotes-just 20 votes short of the number
necessary to nominate. 1t Will then be a
question of whether he can hold his forces
together or not. On this point there is the
widest divergence of opinion among the
politicians. C0leman'S friends stoutly
maintain that the delegates who are sup
porting their candidate are IN the light TO
stay. They say that Coleman has shown
an astonishing amount of executive ability
in his canvass and has obtained the support
Of delegates upon grounds which VIII hold
them TO the last
The friends Of English, however, look
very knowing when the subject OF break
from CoIeman's ranks is mentioned. They
allow guarded remarks to slip from their
cautious liBs which convey the idea that the
methods employed by Coleman TO secure
his apparent strength Will cause II, ike the
gas IN 4 balloon, to escape when the outer
covering is puuctured.
Meanwhile Mayor Pond is pursuing the
even tenor of his way, claiming little and
saving less. He has his henchmen quietly
at work and expects when Coleman and
English have hacked each other to pieces to
come in for the pie. 1t is certain that
great many delegates have him Tor their
second choice, and when the break comes,
if any does come in either Coleman's or
English's ranks, the deserters may be eG-
pected TO 90 over 10 Pond.

gubernatOTial nomination, and his 1rlenas

norship. 1t is understood that he VIII ac-

man, with snow-white beard aud hair,
whom everybody calls "Old Excep-

order that all non-combative confeder-
ates should leave the city within twenty
four hours. This man who was a

ONLY A LITTLE RIM OF STEEL.
All That There Is Between a Railroad
Passenger and Eternity.

II tell YOU what it is" remarked an
old railroad man, 1T used 10 be that
they couldn't turn a wheel any too fast
for me, but it's different now. The
way these fellows run nowadays makes
my hair stand on end. We used to
think that twenty-five or thirty miles
an hour was high running. People
were Just as we'll satisfied. if not more
so, than now, and there weren't so
many accidents. Those days when a
man got on the ground there was SEINE
chance of his getting away alive. but
when YOU touch ground on one of these
fast runs now you're mighty liable to
stay there. People are getting to look
upon Il mile rs a common thing. and
are just bowling mad ut n road that
doesn't make it. They never stop TO
think oil the danger. All they think
about is getting TO their destination.
WHY, when / stop and think of be-
ing whirled across the country fifty
or sixty miles an hour, down hills and
around curves. with only an inch and
a half of iron between me and eternity.
l get so scared swear never 20 get on
a coach again. What do | mean by an
inch and half of iron? Well. you
know what passenger coach is. don
YOU? You know how they're built. A
coach is pretty sold thing nowadays,
and to look at one a person would
think they were pretty safe, but that's
because you don't know anything
about it. The coach itself is all right
so far as it goes but its the wheels.
Did You ever look at the wheels? If
you did you may have noticed how
they're made A good size. broad
enough and heavy enough, and with a
tire of the finest kind of steel. But.
on the inside of the tire, you see sort
of rim or fange. That tlange is about
an inch and half thick and about he
same depth. 1t doesn't look rs if It
amounted to much, that little piece of
steel, but that's what the lives of all the
passengers depend upon. That tlange
keeps the wheel to the rail and keeps
the coach from running off the track.
well, now, when train is gong
fifty miles an hour around a curve you
see how much depends on that tlange.
The whole weight and speed of the
train is against that tlange on one side,
the outside of the curve, and it is all
that keeps the coach from whirling
from the track. Suppose the tlange
broke. or. as is often the case, was
worn down and had been missed by
the car inspector. The chances are
ten to one that the tlange couldn't
hold, but would climb the rail and
there'd be another accident. The re-
porters would be told the rails spread
or something of that kind, and no one
but the company would know what
caused the accident.
There are good many accidents
that happen that way, but it doesn't
appear to be any OF the publics bust
ness. As general rule coach wheel
is watched mighty closely, and the
minute a fange begins to wear new
ones are put on, but many time an
inspector will miss wheel and then
the chances are big that there'll be an
accident. "-KanSaS City Star.

The speaker was typical Kentucky
horseman-one who had lived among
horses all his days aud did his own

"A trotter costs Just as much as a
runner to train" said he. Personal
ly, I'd sooner own a thorough bred any
day of the year than a trotter, and I'd
sooner see one good race like that
Salvator-Tenny match the other day
than sit out all the trotting meets that
ever were set in heats. But leaving
ones personal tastes and distastes out

Women in Wall Street.

Marie Antoinette Nathalie Pollard,
Virginia woman who has become
well known in the South and on the
Pacific slope, intends to apply for a
seat in the Consolidated Stock Elk
change. Several brokers have told her
that they can see no reason why she
shall not become member, even
though she is woman. If the Board
of Managers act favorably on Mrs.
Pollard's application she will probably
be the first woman in the world to be-.
come member of stock exchange.
She speculated in California mining
stocks few years ago and says she
made 500. 900.
do you know that there are be-
tween 800 and 400 women who
speculate in Wall strect?n asked Mrs.
Pollard the other day as she sat in her
attractively fitted up office. 1T may
surprise you, but it is II fact. They
are successful, too, and make as much
money as the men. We ladies are
quiet about what we do. Many lady
spectators have husbands who object
to their specializing. And it is their own
money that they use; they speculate
on the quiet.
Most lady spectators are bulls.
They buy but do not sell often. l do
not know why this is so. l know that
when | was specializing was buyer.
One stock had invested in went way
down. held on to it for a long time,
and finally it went up and Imade on it..

course if you buy at random you are

there are ladies who fancy that all they
have to do to get rich is 10 throw some
money into Wall street That is q
