Chicago was voted for on the final
round by all the distinguished Democrats
upon the committee. Clark Howell, SEN
ator German, Josiah Quincy of Massa-
chusetts. William f. Sheehan of New
York. William +. Harrity of Pennsylva-
MIA. Bradley b. Smalley of Vermont, +.
G. Wall of Wisconsin and others promi-
nent I'm national or State affairs, all voted
for Chicago.
The understanding is that the Chicago
delegation will be expected to have II GER
tilted check for 40,O0O ready for the ex-
ccutive committee when ii arrives in Chi
cago three weeks hence. This will be
turned over to the committee. with the
keys TO the convention hall, and then the
Chicago delegation will step down and
out and leave the entire management Of
the convention in the hands of the ma
tional committee.
There is to be no appointing of SER
geant-at arms or other officers by the Chi
cago people, and no claim for large num-
bers of tickets with which tlfe convention
hall can be packed. Everything is to be
left absolutely to the national committee.
Ii is expected that that committee will
allot certain number of tickets to the
Chicago people, but how many or upon
what terms has not been decided. The
Chicago delegation was quite willing To
leave that matter in the hands of the
national committee, content with getting
the national convention and preferring to
place the responsibility for its manage
ment in the hands of that organization,
and thus avoid any criticism as to mis-
management, such as has been made
with reference to a former Democratic
convention held in that city.
After the location had been decided
upon the committee promptly took up the
question of the date for holding the con-
vention. and the issue was soon sharply
defined by two motions, one TO hold it
June 2 and another that il be held July Z.
The vote resulted 30 to 1S in favor of
July Z.
Can Handle the Crowd.
Chicagoans claim that no other city in
the country can furnish anything like the
facilities for handling the crowds that
accompany a national convention as well
as can Chicago. To obtain hotel accom-
modations it will not be necessary for
visitors to sleep on cots in Railways nor
in chairs in reading and smoking rooms,
and the transportation facilities from the
,aufor nf tho ..ifv ta tho EEalv ..ouvanf fiau
hall are ample. According to the follow
ing table forty-three hotels are ready to
accommodate over $1,000 guests, besides
taking care of their regular patrons:

Location Is Named.

The Democratic national convention
will be held in Chicago July Z. This con-
clusion was reached by the committee in
session at Washington after twenty-nine
ballots had been taken and the struggle
had gone on until well toward midnight.
Starting in with but six votes, Chicago
steadily gained in favor until she won
the prize At one time the number Of
votes cast for her was but four. Never
theless her fitness in location won the
fight for her. 1T was pure question
of geography" said one of the most prom
inent Eastern Democrats and a member

Feed. His Family on Dried Apples.


A petition has been filed to have ''ohn
Acker.hosen. well-to-do Benton Harbor
farmer, adjudged insane. lie is health
enthusiast and the only food he has al
lowed his family, which is composed OF a
wife and four children, for year pas,
has been dried apples with the skins left
on and occasionally some bread made Of
crushed wheat or corn stirred up with
water and without seasoning of any KIND
which he would not allow them to COOK
and owing TO hunger they ate 1t raw. An
other eecentricity of Ackerhosen's is to
compel the children to take bath IN me
open air every morning regardless OF the
weather. Ackerhosen would do the same
thing himself and claimed by this process
of dict and bathing TO be able to live TO
the age of 300 years. His father died Ill
a madhouse. and his brother. it is SAID. is
insane. His wife has gone with her emil
dren to her parents.

and he always seemed happy and cheerful.
There was yet food and warmth in the lit
tie cottage. He went bravely ahead in an
attempt to secure work, but it was denied
him. His business reverses and the fact
that he was practically penniless and un-
able to find employment, 30 preyed on
Hougaard's mind that finally. seeing no
other way of escape, he resolved on death.
The police found little food in the house
and not cent Of money, with the excep-
