Butler, of North Carolina, was elected
chairman, receiving sixty-five votes on
the second ballot.
The other men who were placed in

braska, and General Weaver of Iowa.
Senator Allen said he did not see how
it was possible for him to give the neces-
sary time to the campaign.
There was fight over the secretaryship.
Senator Allen suggested that Hon. ]. a.
Edgerton, of Nebraska, be elected, and
several others, including Robert Schilling,
of Wisconsin, were nominated.
The speeches made for Edgerton said the
chairman came from the south, and
REPRESENTED TOM WATSON'S IN
TERESTS
and it would be well to have some one
from the home of the presidential candi-
date.
1t was stated Edgerton was the personal
choice of Mr.. Bryan. This aroused re-
sentiment on the part of those who OPP
posed Bryan in the convention. 1t was
declared that nothing should be done to
betray the interests of the peoples party

Just one snort year ago he came,
Our little son, God bless him!
A heaven-Sent treasure he is ours,
To care for and caress him,
No matter if the days be drear,
Our hearts he never fails to cheer.
When to my work 1 go away
l stoop and softly kiss him;
And through the long, long hours of day.
1 sadly, sadly miss him;
Until at last at set of sun
I go to him when work is done.
With outstretched arms and winning smile
He coos a loving greeting,
IT'S hard to tell which one of US
Is happiest at our meeting,
This joyous fTohcsome young elf,
His loving mamma, or myself.
His dimpled arms around my neck
Cling close IN soft caresSes; "A
While ganst my bronzed and beardeez
cheek,
His dewy lips he presses
Oh little love! Oh, baby mine!
You closely round my heart-stringS Irvine.
God grant that in the years to come
ne n er may know a sorrow;
May peace and happiness be his,
With every coming morrow,
And may Thine everlasting arm,
Protect and keep him safe from harm.
Oh. baby mine, when years have flown,
And / am old and hoary,
When you to mans estate have grown,
And strong in manhOOd's glory,
Oh, never may our hearts grow cold,
Dear baby boy, just one year old

THE DOLL THAT GREW.

Two children sat in the window low.
Where graceful vines ever loved to creep
A cradle swinging, now fast, now slow,
Rocking a doll to sleep.
His chubby face and his ringlets brown,
Her laughing eyes and her dlmpleS 1air-1
A sunbeam lost in the vines looked dOwnA
Glinting her yellow hair.
L said "Goodby, happy ones, goodby;
Fer L come back, little girl and boy,
Your laugh will fade to common sigh,
Mocking this childish joy
Their eyes looked grave, for a moments
But could not take in the meaning cold
She shook her head till his brown crown

He said. "and proud" Eyes, me will"
said she.
1.-THE doll will grow, and the cradle-all.
Lovely as they can be-.
And far away in the world of tide.
In dreams and fancies that picture fair
The girls sweet faith and the boys glad
Follow me everywhere.
All could it stay, could it always bel
But each joy falls with a broken wing;
Then night comes on, and it cannot see,
Moaning, it cannot sing.
With years of winter upon my head.
With years of summer upon my face,
1 came, by haunting desire led,
Back to the self same place.
The same sun struggled and wanderedf
through,
And glinted ringlets of brown and gold:
The doll had grown, and the cradle, too,
Lovelier than of old
The two still sat in the window low,
Their hearts so full of a love so deep
A cradle swinging, so soft and slow,
Rocking their child to sleep

BERLIN, July 25.-[Copyrighted,

peror William does not often exercise
his prerogative as a Prussian Summus
Episcopus, but when he does do SO, he
shows the parsons with unerring GER
tainty that there is a limit to their
power. Recently Superintendent Zeit-
low of Ammin, in Pomerana, refused
the right of Christian burial to the wife
of respectable citizen who had
drowned herself. The unfortunate wo-
man had been previously adjudged in
sane. DR.. Scipio, preacher of Stet-
tin, offered to officiate at the funeral,
but Zeitlow forbade him to do So
Thereupon the widower sent a tele-
gram to the emperor. stating the facts
in the case. His majesty Immediately
instructed the provincial authorities to
forbid Zeitlow, under penalty of dis
missal, to interfere with DR.. Scipio.
THE EMPEROR'S PLAN
to raise his uncle, Frederick William
Louis, Grand Duke of Baden, to a
rank of king upon the occasion of the
grand dukes SEVENTEEN birthday,
year, is not received with much en-
thusiasm by the people of Baden, who
are afraid that the new title will mean
an increased civil list and heavier tax
alton, and his plan TO annex Alsace
and Lorraine to the grand duchy of
Baden will not, it is generally thought,
be carried into effect owing to the OBJ
jections of Bavaria.
: Prince Max, nephew of the king of
Saxony, will be admitted to the priest
hood of the Roman Catholic church to-
morrow. He is in his 26th year.
DR.. Storker, the preacher politician
and Jew batter, has founded new
party, which he calls the Kirchlichs-
will, instead of the ChriStlichsvzil,
which latter name the emperor said
was an idiotic title. Though under a
different name, DR.. Storker's party will
continue 70 operate on the lines of his
original party in opposing all liberal
measures and backing up the Jew
baiters. DR.. Storker has rallied quite
a number of respectable men to his
party and announced that he intends
to prosecute q vigorous campaign at
the approaching session of the reich
stag.
The Berlin city synod, which has the
patronage of the imperial family. and
especially that of the empress, has pub

that Berlin is in need of thirty more

never more than one-third filled, and
besides two of the most beautiful
churches in Berlin are used for storage

The torrents which rushed down
the canyon upon Morrison and Golden
and other mountain towns were caused
by g terrific mountain storm which
extended a hundred miles or more,
from Boulder, where the damage was
slight. All down the range west OF
Denver almost to Pueblo, the storm
swept destruction before it.
At Morrison and Golden the torrents
tore away buildings, uprooted trees
washed out long stretches of railroad
tracks, swept bridges and spread anni-
hilation through the sowns> Their
work was brief as the warnings were
inadequate and almost before the citl-
zens knew what had happened the
floods had passed, leaving only deadly
wreck of devastation everywhere. All
that could be done in the darkness and
confusion was done by rescuers. Men,
women and children We're released
from dangerous predfcaments, taken
from roofs of floating houses and help

It is feared that lives may have been
lost at Central City and perhaps other
points in the mountains. There is
great difficulty in obtaining accurate
information of the extent of devasta-
ton because Of the wires being torn
down, the railroad tracks swept away
and all communication with Denver
cut off or interfered with. The Gulf
and South Park railroads suffered most
severely in loss of track and bridges.
There are also washouts on the Santa
Fe, Denver & Rio Grande and Flor
ence and Cripple Creek railways.
