What would you do with it If you had

''Ha, ha ha!"' he laughed at the absurd
ity of the suggestion, and then no said:

Mr.. HEZeLT0N'S CASE.
His He alth Will Probably Cause Retirement
from Public Service.

Washington, May 14.-Notbing was
done with the case of Seneca Hazclton,
United States minister to Venezuela, to-
day 1t was cabinet day, and Assistant
Secretary Uhl had no time to devote to
the matter.
Bradley b. Smalley, whose recommended
tion was chiefly instrumental in securing
MIR. Hazelton's appointment, did not visit
the state department, today, and it is I'M
derstood that he will not do soin this
matter.
He is stopping at the same hotel as Mr.
Hazelton. and apparently has concluded
that the condition OF MIR. Hazelton's health
does not Justify the continuance Of the
lattcr's service abroad.

made this remark yesterday, at one OF
the leading clubs of New York The
subject of d discussion had been the enors

men were discussing il. Among the
company was doctor, railroad SUPER

farewell. George F. Root. the sweet
singer and composer, passes away in
similar manner. Indeed. we none OF us
can tell what moment we may be Called
and it ought to make anyone stop and
thilik."
The company all looked at the doctor.
He said:
.'Your remarks are we'll timed. The

Last night another large audience
listened to the musical programme given
by Musso's Mandolin orchestra, and
every number was received with hearty
applause. During the interim between
the performances general promenade
was kept up and the various booths did
a lively business.
The booth which has proved one of the
greatest attractions is the soda fountain
situated in pretty bower of green aspar-
agus and presided over by Misses M. Dali
galarondo, M. Hartwiok, M. Hamers, P.
Ranch. G. Slebler and r. Herberger.
To the left of the stage is located "a

of the home. She is assisted at her booth

is IN charge of Mrs. s. Grant, who il ABLY
attended by Mrs. Henry Kearney and
Misses }. c. and r. Imrolo, Nj. Kearney,

airy little bower, framed Of smilax inter-
mixed with rysanthemums, the whole
forming frame for the galaxy of beauty

has been travelling through France and
Germany the past seven months. When
asked about national politics he said
'Well, L didn't pay mucn attention to

was there but few days. / did not see
,ither Mr.. Quay or Mr.. Platt. Allison Of
Iowa, l understand, has some strong
men back OF him for the presidency.
New York will be solid for Morton, and
it Don Cameron is a candidate why of
course Pennsylvania will line up for
him. Ii there is any agreement between
Platt ind Quay and other leaders to nom
mate G amerOn. then it is covert and
not a public one. Have | a choice tor the

com mittee will meet some time in De-
cember, / believe. AS am vice chairman
of the committee, OF course | will have
to go on to New York TO attend the
meeting. The meeting of the com ittee
in December will mean late convention
and q short campaign.
Eyes; l have read that Mr.. Shortridge
desires to succeed me on the national
committee from California" Mr.. de
Young continued. smiling. as though Mr..
amusing. Hes quite an enterprising
man. l met him in New York There
will not be any rivalry between us.
"Will the Republican national con-
vention come to San Francisco? That
cannot say. l heard that the Union
League club cabled me to try and bring
it here, but had left Europe before the
message reached there. Pittsburg is now
coming to the irons for that convention.
The city has $780, 600 pledged.
II did not see Mr.. Huntington while I
