HILLsBoRO, Tex, Aug. 29.-The
Sixth congressional convention met
here today. The convention has had
sittings in Corsicana and Dallas and
the session today was as barren OF

lows: Burke, 81; Poindexter, 80; Alb.
bolt, II; Hardy, "
AT the night session a motion was
made to refer the nomination of q
candidate for congress back to the
people. The delegates were unable
to decide how they wanted to vote On

refused to recognize him as repre-.
sentative Democrat. The sensational
announcement brought Kingsbury,
who was in the audience, to his feet
and after wild, hilarious scene on
the rostrum between leaders on both
sides, he said: 81 want to explain.
Colonel Cox is in error. L say right
here that very member of the Demo.
cratic committee endorsed me to an

circumstance, is chairman" Quiet

one replying to him. The scene has
caused great excitement among polit-

Mckane sitting by his counsel. lie
quickly sentenced the pa .soner to six years

counsel for stay.
The appearance of Col. T.. G. James as
additional cou nsel to McKane was an i'm
dication cat McKane intends TO continue
to fighbas iong as there is hope.
McKane when asked what he had to say
arose and said:
81 do NOT knew that can say anything,
but what / said on the stand. i have
never done anything wrong to anyone

The customary Monday morning rou-
tine was observed at the State House to-
day in both branches. Governor Brown
presided over Secretary Freeman and
Deputy Secretary of State Bennett for
about five minutes, and Speaker Owen
found about half dozen of
his colleagues congregated in the
House chamber at II; 10 o'clock.
Janitor Joe Mullen introduced with con-
scious pride his compatriot, O'Donovan
Rosa, to such dignitaries as he could
muster in the State Library, and that
gentleman spoke in high terms of appre-
citation of the Bryne demonstration yester-
day. He returned to New York on the
noon train.
The House finance committee held a
meeting at IL 80 O'Clock to obtain light
on the increased appropriation for military
purposes in the appropriation bill. Adju-
tant General Dyer was summoned. The
House committee on elections did not
meet in Pawtucket today as il
has been decided 10 pass a
resolution authorizing them TO sit in that
city in order to legalize their sitting out
side the State House. 1t has been decided
to give the first hearing on the factory
inspector bill next Saturday afternoon
whether the General Assembly is ad-

morrow on the nine hour bill has not been
determined upon. There is no dis
position to improve any time limit

have undisturbed possession of the floor

Vigorous efforts are being made to secure
full representation of the Democratic

that reports may be secured from these
beniehted sections which Speaker Owen
reflected upon in the party conference
last Friday. Contractor OSuliivan dis
tributed his pictorial magazines to the

From an Authority on Books.

Said well-known book lover and au-
thority on art works: +" ! have seen eight
or 10 different Worlds Fair books and
the News Magic City is the hand
soonest, most accurate and with the best
selection OF views OF any OF them. Take
one little point for instance. Most OF the
publications print a photograph
o. the Fine Arts Building with the
statue OF Victory on top. The statue OF
Victory was in the crig:nal model, but IL
was never put on the sc'ual building. That
shows that the photographs sere not taken
from the building az finally completed.
Other books show staging abcu; some OF
the buildings, demonstrating that tie pic
lures were taken before the competition
of the buildings. The p;ctprcs In
the Magic City are absolutely corroc:
just az the buildings actually were bI.lt
and taken at time and from point Of
view that makes them most picturesque
and effective"
