at the Windsor Thursday to fix the
date of the State convention and to ar
range for the cooperation of the clubs
of the State in entertaining visiting
delegates to the national convention,

would undoubtedly be held on June 16,

convention would merge naturally into

WHEEL WAS HIS SAFEGUARD.
Petty Naval Officers Bicycle Kept
Him from the hIIurements of
the saIOOns.

"In these day of automobiles.
steam carriages and electric vehicles" ="
said an observant man the other day
to a New York Tribune man, "the
bicycle is not being neglected 1t has
become too cheap to be popular with
the upper classes, but it is more of n
blessing than ever to the poor. Even
the newsboys and bootblacks own
their own wheels now. 1t was on a
visit to the scruiser Baltimore the
other day that l became convinced
that one could find bicycles every
where.
Il was passing through one of the
gangways leading to the quarters of
the crew. There were guns and fight
ing things on every side. I happened
to look up and was surprised to see a
bicycle securely fastened to the top
of the gangway. 1t was an old-style
wheel, with heavy frame and thick
tires, but it had served the petty Off
GER who owned it very well. 1t had
been ridden in most of the seaports
of Europe at which American war YES
sells call. The owner had scorched
about the streets of Hong-Kong and
had taken bicycle trip into the in
terror of Japan. Even in Manila he
had found it useful, jim spite of the
extreme heat.
The owner of that wheel has saved
more money during the last three
years than any other petty officer on
the ship said the lieutenant who was
showing me around. 1T keeps him
busy when he has shore leave and he
has no desire to go to saloons and
other places in which sailors drop
all of their hard-earned pay"

HELEN KELLER is A MARVEL.
Deaf, Dumb and Blind. Yet She Gains
Thorough EducntiOn-Her
student Life.

Helen Keller, the deaf, dumb and
blind girl, has overcome tremendous
obstacles and is now progressing well
as student at Radcliffe, says an ex-
change.
The bulk of her preparation for
college was accomplished under Ar
thur Gilman's instruction, aided by
Miss Sullivan, for several years her
teacher. By the employment of sew
eral ingenious instruments she mas
tered geometry and algebra, while
with raised letter books she has Sc
cured a grasp on English. Latin and
Greek. Her examination papers were
in the Braille raised point system and
the answers she wrote on type
writer, in the use of which she is an
expert. Besides passing in all the
required subjects, Miss Keller has
entered Radcliffe with freshman Eng
lish and advanced FrencA to the good.
At the lectures Helen is invariably
accompanied by Miss Sullivan, who
sits close beside her and gives her, in
the manual language, whatever the
instructor may be saying. The fine
ness of her soul and the exquisite ma
ture of her thoughts are evidenced
by the essays written during her
preparation.
For all Helen Keller's remarkable
intellectually she is, in the main. just
a pleasant, normal girl. She rides a
tandem, sews, crochets, embroiders,
and, most marvellous of all, plays a
capital game of chess. She is with
out doubt the most wonderful college
girl the world has yet seen.

The PRESIDENT AT HOME.
Use of the White House Front Door
an Index to Simplicity of
Our Public Life,

The use of the front door of the
white house tells an impressive story
of the simplicity of our republican
one portal go the president and his
family; the ladies of fashion who
call upon the presidents wife: the
copyists, telegraphers and messengers
who are employed in the clerical work
of the executive mansion, and they
number score; the otfice-seekers and
all visitors to the white house on
way to see the historic East room (;
and the ambassadors of foreign mon
archs going to present their creden-
tials to the president of the United
States.
In the palace of a European mon
arch there would be several entrances.
The public would have one door, the
family another, and the diplomatists
n third
The only attempt made at the
white house to secure privacy for
the president and his wife, says the
Youths Companion, is this: When
they enter or depart, two of the
guards about the door quietly take
places at the head of, the little fight
of steps which lead up to the portico,
and hold the public back a few sec
onds, while the president and wife
step out to the carriage or go in
from it. Usually a little bevy Of peo-
pie collects to see the president pass
so near, and to them he always bows
cordially.
Inside the door it is expected that
no one will accost the president while
walking to and from his private apart
ments. But there is nothing to pre-
vent one from doing so. Not long ago
green reporter, who had just
come to Washington, took this occa-
sion to approach President Mckinley
and question him upon the issues of
the day. The president. recognizing
the innocence of the intruder, chatted
pleasantly with him. The next day
the young man was warned by tie
guards that he should not do so again.
Even president must occasionally
have few minutes to himself.

THE $4,000 BANQUET.
Back to the Guild Hall again for the
crowning function, the Lord Mayors
banquet, which rarely costs less than
$4,000. The Mayor pays half and the
two Sheriffs pay the other half, which
Is perhaps their most important duty
of the year. The entire corporation of
London, from Mayor to Comm Coun-
cilors, dimes in the great hall. Mem
bers of the royal family are also invit-
ed and nearly all of the big govern
ment officials. Furthermore, the
Prime Minister is expected to make a
speech, in which he gives forth some
important utterances concerning the
affairs of the nation. In all 1000 peo-
pie dine and the wine bill is some
times prodigious. All the food that is
left over is given to the poor.
After the banquet the Lord Mayor
goes to the Mansion House, and settles
down for a year of such Things. His
otficnal residence Is a grim and unin-
viting sort of place to hold such an
incarnation of festivlty. 1t was open
ed in 1853 and cost 100000. Perhaps
its most interesting feature is its fam
Gus collection of plate, said to be
valued at between half million and
million dollars. Each Mayor is ex-
pected to add to it the amount of
$500. He is also expected to con-
tribute a valuable piece of furniture.
THE LOVING CUP.
Perhaps the most interesting piece
of plate is the big loving cup used at
safe banQets. 1t is presented first to
t o chief, who has to grasp it in both
har Is, rise and bow to his neighbor
| CO tho right, who also rises and bows.
| F. takes drink, solemnly wipes the
Trim of the cup with his serviette, bows
again and passes the cup to his neigh
bor who bows and repeats the cere-
mony, and so on round the table.
Anther queer feature of the Mansion
House dinner is the big golden bowl
filed with rose water, which the at
tendants pass around in lieu of finger
bowls. Each guest is expected merely
to dip in the corner of his serviette.
So heavy are the demands on the
Lord Mayors hospitality that his $780,
600 salary rarely goes more than half
way toward covering his expenses.
The new Lord Mayor is a rich paper
merchant, who married a daughter of
Joseph Haydn, compiler of the fam
Gus Dictionary of Dates His wife died
| last year, and the duties of the Lady
MayCress, as she is called will fall to
his daughter Kathleen. a young
woman who has earned something of a
reputation as poet. 1t is not known
definitely whether the new Lord May
or is man of sound digestion, but it
is reasonable to suppose that he is or
he never would have accepted an Office
making such extraordinary demands
upon him in that direction.

his mace, to the Lord Mayor and Aid
ermen in the room adjoining, the mes
sage being too important to be en-
trusted to any one dignitary.
THE ELECTION CONFIRMED.
After grave consideration of the re-
spectlve merits of the two approved
candidates and suitable pondering
over the Importance of their decision
the Lord Mayor and Aldermen choose
the senior of the two candidates and
the defeated man is serene in the
knowledge that he will be chosen next
year. The Junior candidate this year
was Sir ]. G. Dimsdale, and it Is rea-
sonably certain that at this time next
year his style and title will be "The
Rt. Hon. the Lord Mayor-elect."
The Aldermen having chosen their
man, the great news is carried back
with due pomp and ceremony to the
eypectant Liverymen; the Lord Mayor
and his predecessors file back into the
Common Hall; the Lord Mayor-elect
has the chain of office placed upon his
neck by the sword-bearer and steps
forward to thank the Livery; it is
moved, seconded and carried that the
present Lord Mayor be thanked, and
then the Rt. Hon. the Lord Mayor
elect seated beside the Rt. Hon. the
Lord Mayor, takes his first ride in the
wonderfully gilded, wonderfully an
cient and wonderfully uncomfortable
state coach to the Mansion House,
where the Rector gets that dinner to
which he was invited so solemnly.

Strengthened By Defeat.

The editor of the TELEGRAPH is
in receipt of a letter from a friend
in Jacksonville in which the follow
ing reference is made to one of
our fellow-townsmen:
"On all sides l have heard pleas
ing comments upon Col Wills
speech in withdrawing his name
from the convention. The effect
of his eloquent words, so manfully
delivered, was thrilling, and be-
lieving as he fully did that to the
stronger man belonged the prize,
his action brings to mind the
tales of chivalry Of the long ago
when men acted upon the impulse
of honor. Few men grow stronger
in defeat, but he is a notable ex-
ception, and Bradford should be
proud of such a man."

CELEBRATION ABANDONED.
Arrangements for July 4th Not
Contaminated.

The TELEGRAPH has to perform
the unpleasant duty OF announcing
that the celebration planned few
weeks ago for July 4th has been
abandoned
When the negotiations with
Professor Guilliams to establish a
Normal and Commercial school
at this place were begun it was
found that a considerable sum of
money would have to be raised to
enlarge our school building, and as
it was generally agreed that the
establishment of such a school
here would be of infinitely more
good to the town and county than
a Publication for one day, it was
decided to hold the celebration
project in allegiance until such
time as definite answer should be
received from Mr.. Guilliams. This
line of action was decided upon to
make sure that nothing should
stand in the way of raising the
money necessary for enlarging and
equipping the school building fol-
Mr.. Guilliams. The correspond
ence with Mr.. Guilliams continued
until a few days ago, when he
wrote the committee definitely
declining the proposition made tC
him and stating that he had made
a contract with a Georgia town.
If this answer had come two
weeks ago the celebration project
would have been taken up and car
ried out, but it came too late t
permit of the completion of the ar
engagements for the kind of Gel
ebration Starke desired to shart
with her friends, and rather thar
invite them to a "one-horse" affair
the matter has been abandoned
altogether. -- ~.

a little more money than many

As a consequence the Math-
