She never knew how 10 waltz until

class with two OF her chums. She be-
came fascinated with the amusement,
and IL had nrst place ln her thoughts,
She resolved TO become the best waltzer
in Bridgeport She practiced during
the luncheon hour and devoted all her
evenings and often most OF the night
10 waltzing.
Several times she entered waltzing
competitions in Bridgeport and New
Haven. and her failure In win a prize

She began whirllng through the rooms

chic of Calais.
Hon. II. Swazey then presented the
resolutions which were as follows:
THE PLATFORM.
The representatives OF the Republic
cans in convention assembled invite the
voters OF the state, irrespective OF for
fner political affiliations TO unite with
them In re-affirming the principles of
the 81. Louis platform. and endorsing
the following articles OF faith:
We heartily commend the wise, pa
triotic and progressive administration
of President Mckinley, under which.
with capital successfully invested and
labor profitably employed. the country
is today enjoying an era of unexamp.ed
prosperity.
We cordially endorse the work of our
senators and representatives in con-
gress in their efforts to advance the in
terests of the state and nation.
Believing that the best money In the
world is none too good for the Amer-
can people. we favor the maintenance
Of the gold standard. established by -
Republican congress. under which labor
reaps it's just reward, and every dollar
in circulation has the largest possible
purchasing power. We are firmly con-
WINGED that the revival OF our merchant
marine calls for the passage OF the
Frye shipping bill.
We believe the interests of an expand
ing commerce imperatively demand the
construction of the Nicaraguan canal
and Pacific cable.
While anv part of the inhabitants OF
our outlying islands are resisting the
authority OF the United States IL is the
duty OF the government to suppress
such insurrectlon and establish peace
and order. The American nag stands as
a guarantee of 'life. liberty and Ne
pursuit Of happiness"
No people have ever come under its
protection save to- &their betterment and
Congress may be safely depended upon
to secure 10 all who accept its sover-
eighty, the blessing OF "A just govern
ment and progressive civilization.
The reading Of the resolutions closed
the proceedings and after being In ses-
sion less than an hour and a half the
convention adjourned.

MAINE REPUBLICANS
HOLD A CONVENTION.

Lewiston. Ne. April 1.-THE assem-
Sling OF the Republican delegates at
the state convesntion this forenoon
lacked much OF rhe hustle and excite
ment OF former years. Even che fact
that fourteen positions of honor. six
presidential electors, four delegates to
the national convention and four al
ternates were to be distributed among
the fayorite sons OF the different coun-
ties failed TO develop any great amount
Of enthusiasm or arouse that coveting
sense in the hearts OF aspirants for
party prefermenk that has frequently
made such gatherings extremely inter-
csting. To be sure. none OF the places
threatened to go abegging. and one or
TWO counties had some little trouble in
deciding between two or three favor
ates.
The main body OF the convention del
egates did not put in an appearance
until this morning. and then not until
an hour or two before the time set, IL
o'clock.

by Secretary OF State Byron Boyd OF

vited William It. Cobb OF Augusta to
