Not a rare picture at the rendezvous
OF the "white rats OF the water front"

street. Is that Of a lot OF poorly clad
youngsters busily engaged In pouring
into their outlets the rich milk OF the
cocoanut As they pat their stomachs
in acknowledgment Of the fresh re-

milk and honey never received more
cordial welcome to the insides OF
thirsty new arrivals In promised land
than this milk OF the cocoanut receives
as 1t flows into these eager mouths.
Down around the portion OF the water
front indicated life and its luxurics are
enjoyed. The "whlte rats" are not
content with fresh boiled crabs, clam
soup and the varieties OF domestic
fruits and vegetables that commonly
form part of the bill Of fare. Like
Mob Hill aristocrats, they banker after
imported articles.
Whenever vessel arrives here from
Tahiti or some other of the islands OF
the South Seas, with cargo OF cocoa

They are not in the habit Of distribut-

awaiting the wagons of the commits

Step by step we seem to be returning
to ancient practices, readopting the
ways OF the savages who used to fight
for their lady loves. Two young New
Workers. who loved the same girl, after
many mutual determinations decided,
both of them being adopts at various
athletic sports, to run hundred-yard
dash for this desirable young woman,
the winner to have the exclusive right
to her affections. The girl, who seemed
herself undecided as to which she pre-
ferred, agreed to this novel contest and
even stipulated the pleasure of being
present. During the race she bestowed
her applause impartially on both con-
testants, and at the close expressed her
regrets to the loser as the perspiring
victor clasped her In his brawny arms.
All this took place at Ridgewood, a
popular resort, before a large and ad-
miring crowd. In the evening the win
ner and his hard-won bride led the
cotillion, while the loser confided his
sorrows to the barkeeper until an ad-
vanced hour.

First Lieut.. Motay of the French
liner La Bourgogne seems to be "up to
the limit" When the big transatlantic
ship saw the German bark Ernst in a
sinking condition, the first life boat was
ordered away to rescue, despite the vio-
lence Of the storm. Lieut., Motay was
sick in bed in his stateroom and the
second lieutenant was ordered to COM
mand the boat. But Motay had heard
the order and Just as she was cast
loose of her davits appeared on deck
demanding the right to command his
boat, which was granted him. He was
washed overheard before reaching the
bark, but saved by life-buoy, and
finally succeeded in rescuing all the
crew of the doomed ship. OF such, are
the true sailors.

Louis Convention.

Santa Fe, n. M, March 23.-The ter
ritorial republican convention met to-
day and elected six delegates to the st.
Louis convention. The delegates sc I'M
instructed.
Ninety-three delegates, representing
IS counties, responded to the roll call at
noon today when Hon. r. L. Bartlett,
of Santa Fe, called to order the republl-
can territorial convention for the pur-
pose Of nominating six delegates and
six alternates to represent the territory
in the national republican convention.
The call for the convention was issued
much earlier than usual, owing to the
fact that the full representation of the
sheep raising interest-the active sea-
son of which will commence during the
first week in April, was desired. The
leaders of the party, both from Santa re
county and the north and Bernalillo and
the south, from which sections the del
egates were chosen, expressed them
selves this morning as opposed to in
structions. The platform is strong

Any Time the Great Body

indianapolis, March 23--The eXecu-

this city today. The conference lasted
until a late hour this evening, and was
devoted chiefly to decision as to the

devise ways and means the matter was
referred to a subcommittee composed
of Messrs. Mcguire, Lennon and o.

and horse shoers-Who have volunteered
to do anything that the council may
order to bring about the desired result.
It was given out by Secretary McGrath
that the carpenters union will pTobab-
~ be selected to make the test, and

bring about the desired result. The
secretary's report submitted today
shows a marked increase in the feder
