publication.
1t has been a session of tiresome talk,
and IL was after 3 o'clock when the lasr
nomina tion was made and the selection of
a chairman of the state central committee
was taken up. There was a big fight on
the reelection of Chairman Breidenhall
which was precipitated by a motion offered
by Mclean of Merton, a friend of Breiden-
hall, that the convention proceed TO the
nomination.
At this juncture delegate In the body of
the house was seized with an epileptc fit
and the leaders seized the opportunity 10
hold a conference. Breidenhall advised
that the motion be withdrawn, and the
question left for the state committee TO
decide. The advice was followed, and Nc
Lean and Costigan crossed hands before
the applauding convention, i'm token of a
suspension of hostilities.

RACING WOMEN.

There are women who race to make
money. 1 used to know one, says a
writer in the English GentleWoman.
She was demure-looking spinster of
that certain age" which stands for six
ty or thereabouts, dwelt quietly in
country village and only occasionally
visited the race courses. But her income
was derived from winners, and so good
were the tips she obtained that she lived
in considerable comfort, although she
had only about $50 year of regular
revenue.
Then there are some women who
race for the love of horsefesh. These
are necessarily in the stable and in the
paddock, like the late Duchess of Mon
trose, as good judge of a horse ss
most men and not bad at spotting the
qualities of a jockey. Other women
race, as they play baccarat or poker,
from sheer desire for excitement. The
gambling instinct is strong within them,
and must be satisfied whether at Monte
Carlo or at Ascot. But the largest num-
Der of racing women hail from the
ranks Of those who love picnic, a fiirt-
alton, an open-air lunch and The
chance Of wearing smart summer
gown.
Last week this variety of racing wo-
man had specially good time, for in
Ascot week she touched the highe st
point Of joy, and is as perfectly content
ed as poor human nature-eyer grum-
bling like an old fogy in club-can
ever hope to be. Ascot is picnic
with horses as Interruptions and royal.
ty IS spectacle.
At least half the women who 60
there scarcely glance at the race course
twice in the four days of the meeting.
They are busy staring at one another,
eating luncheons and teas, and smiling
on favored swains, whose violent ex-
cursions into the ring they regard
with extreme disapprobation. Gowns
and attentive guardsmen, strawberries
and cream and princesses; those four
items fairly sum up Ascot for them.
If they win few pairs of gloves on the
races, so much the better. When they
back d horse it is usually on account of
the pretty colors of the owner or the
attractive appearance of the jockey.
1t is funny to note the contempt with
which they are regarded by really keen
racing women, who will take any
trouble, undergo any humiliation in
the endeavor to be Gin the know"
about the favorite.
A famous jockey, who has now retired
from the turf, once told me- some of his
experiences, and described the way in
which high.born danes pursued him,
and the shifts to which they put them
selves in order to get at him. One, an
English duchess, used to trot all over
the place after him, call at his house,
take his wife out dining and kiss his
children whenever she met them, so
long as he rode. AS soon as he gave
up the saddle she dropped him and even
ceased to recognize him when she
encountered him occasionally at New
market. Racing women are ready to
pay large prices for their favorite
amusement A moderate sized house,
belonging to friend of mine who lives
near Ascot, was let last week for $50
guineas for the seven days. A party Of
twelve persons occupied it, and they
brought, besides maids and women
servants, twelve men servants and two
| chefs.

THE AGES OF THE PRESIDENTS.

LIZ AdEO Or De L hILOlOE4N l ~
William Jennings Bryan, democratic
nominee for President, is thirty-six
years old. He is the youngest man
ever nominated by one of the great
parties, and, if successful, will be the
youngest man ever elected.
The famous decade in life from which
to choose a President has been the
sixth. Thus when they were nominal.
ed or elected by the popular voice be-
fore convention days, their ages ran in
this wise Washington, Sc; Jefferson,
57 Madison, 81; Monroe, SIS; John
Quincy Adams, 81; Van Buren, 81;
Lincoln, 81; Hayes, 81, and Benjamin
Harrison, SIS.
The Presidents above sixty years at
the time of their election were: John
Adams, 81; Jackson, 81; William Henry
Harrison, 67; Taylor, 62, and Buchanan
65. Those below fifty were: Polk, 49;
Pierce, 4S; Grant, 46; Garfield, 49, and
Cleveland, AZ. Mr.. Cleveland was
6fty-6ve at his second election. The
Vice Presidents who became Presidents
were at their election of the following
ages Tyler, so; Fillmore, 4S; Johnson,
Sc, and Arthur, so.
Mr.. Bryan is ten years younger than
Gen. Grant when he was nominated,
twenty-five years younger than John
Adams and Jackson, and thirty. y.one
years younger than the elder Harrison,
who was the oldest man ever yet nomi-
mated for President, though he holds
the age over James Buchanan by two
years only. The constitution requires
the President to be thirty five, so that
Mr.. Bryan just skips over the boundary
line
