FIGURES BY TRACEY.
Cleveland's Nomination Predicted
on Second Ballot.

VII OCOOhu DNIIOts
New YORK. May 20.-A Washington
special to the World says: The results
of the conventions in Georgia and Vir-
ginia have led the more Sanguine of MIR.
Cleveland's friends to calculate his
strength at Chicago. Gen. Tracey, a
warm supporter of Mr. Cleveland. has
tabulated the returns from the state
conventions held up to date, and has
figured on the delegations yet to be
selected. On the basis of his totals and
his SpeculatiOnS as to the action of the
states yet to be heard from, he declares
with much emphasis that the eX-presi-
dent will receive the nomination, prOba-
bly, on the second ballot.
Of the conventions already held he
gives Cleveland 40, and the unln-
structed or cleveland ballots as 1885,
Thirteen states have not yet declared
their preferences, hut Gen. Tracey di-
vides them into 81 ballots for Cleve-
land. and 209 unrestricted or anti
Cleveland ballots. According to this
calculation Mr.. Cleveland wilLlack only
about ninety votes to secure the NOM
nation. With this showing on the first
ballot. he believes those Wavering on
the uninstructed cOlumnswill come over.
Gen. Tracey comedies to the oppos-
stiOn, which includes the number of
delegates instructed for BOieS, Gray,
Carlisle and Hill, only 394 votes This
also includes the possibility of divided
delegations in New Jersey, Tennessee
and Texas, all of which he believes
will vote as a unit for Cleveland. Anti
Cleveland men, to whom these figures
were submitted. declare that Gen.
Tracey's great admiration for the ex-
president has led him to eXtravag ant
SDeculatiOnS.

Observation-Disclosures AGAIN.
They Talked of Their Plan at
Dyer's Last Night.

DyefS Last Night.
The meeting in Dyer's hall last night
of the people interested in the cause of
free kindergartens was rather SHINY
attended. The meeting was opened by
an address by Miss Kate Burlington Da-
Wis. She told of the great number of
cities in the country that maintain
free kindergart ems and enlarged upOn
the success of the plan. She was fol-
lowed by Rev. s. w. Sample. who gave
his unqualified Endorsement of the plan
in flOwery words. Supt. NJ. n. Gilbert,
of st. Paul, told the assembled kinder
gartnerS that st. Paul was so we'll sat
isfied with the work of the kindergarten
that the system would he made part
of the public school course with the be-
ginning of the next school year. Supt.
Bradley. of Minneapolis, spoke for the
introduction into the public schools of
the XII nder gartens, taking the same
ground that he did in a recent report to
the GARD of education. He says the
board of education favolS the idea. but
they figure that the establishment of
the k kindergarten would Hecessitate the
emp lOyment of at least 100 more teach
ers, and would mean an additional an
nual expense for public school purposes
of from 100000 to S150,000. For that
reason the board is not ready to adopt
the system yet. He mentioned the
healthful influence upon the physical
makeup of children of kindergarten
work and also cited the showing that
kindergarten pupils learn fully twice
as fast on going to school as do
those who have never had the
kindergarten training. Miss TwitcheIl
spoke for the kindergaTtners calling to
account some member of the board of
education for saying that the board in
dorSes everything that is educational
like cooking, manual training and the
like, but that IL cannot afford to pay for
sentiment, meaning the Kindergarten.
The next meeting of the association
will be announced later.

MAJ. CAMPS ROMANCE.
San Francisco Papers Comment
on IL ut Length. a

The San Francisco papers have de-
voted GOOD deal of space to the ro-
nance which became known only by
the death of Maj. George A. Camp.
The Examiner says that Mrs. Carr
Scale is now on her way to Minneapolis,
and it is believed that she is coming to
defend her rights under the Will OF
Maj. Camp. Of what may result III
case of contest by Mrs. Wedelstaedt,
of the provisions of the will, the EX-
aminer gives an inkling as follows:
IN this she will probably be firmly met by

three or four years ago her husband, Henry
Scale, a wealthy stOckman, died suddenly.
His brother and other relatives contested the
will, but the matter was compromised ana

Mrs. Scale is Il bright, talented woman. and
is possessed of such stro ng will power that
she will hardly allow any one 10 deprive her
of what she considers her rights.
The Chronicle Says that Maj. Camp
met the lady in the case twenty-five
years ago, when she was Miss Scale,
and became engaged to her at that time.
They were estranged and parted. only
to meet again within the last year and
plight their trOth.

The dreaded ''Bogie Man" got in

that his complexion was due to nothing
but dirt and filth. His hair, which un-
doubtedly at one time had been lank
and long, was matted on the top of his
head like black wool. His eyebrows
were long and shaggy. and from be-
meath them peered pair of eyes as
bright as those of a ferret He wore an
old battered hat on the top of his
head with holes in it large
enough to thrust the hand
through. The rest of his costume
consisted of tattered and filthy over
coat, yellow and green with age, and a
pair of dirty trousers. He wore no
shoes, but mis- feet were swathed in fan
mel cloths. There was not even a sus-
piciOn of shirt on him, yet so black
was his breast and so shaggy with hair
that it was impossible to tell whether
he had an -undergarment OH or not

shoulders hung lot OF foul-smeling and
