DRAMATIC SCENE OCCURS.

With cheers and applause, the resolu-
ton was adopted, wirile the band in the
south gallery played patriotic airs in lead
of the enthusiasm. Then a dramatic
scene occurred. AS the vas audience
was quieting down to listen to the read
Ding Of the declaration, two men ap-
peared upon the platform bearing care
fully in their arms two large objects "a
shrouded in the Stars and Stripes. They
were placed, the one upon the other inn
mediately to the right and in front Of the
chairman. Delegates and spectators cram
ed their necks to see what was about to
occur.
Quickly advancing to the flag draped OBJ
5ect a handsome man deftly lifted the
flag from a splendid bust of Mr.. Bryan.
AS the familiar features of their distin-
guished leader were recognized by dele
gates and spectators. a tornado of ap-
plause swept owe the audience. From
sid to side the bust was turned that all
might see whom 1t represented. When the
applause subsidized Charles Hampton, of
Michigan read in a magnificent voice he
immortal Declaration Of Independence.
AS the full and rounded sentences of the
great state paper rolled through the hall.
the cheering n enthusiasm Increased
and when Mr.. Hampton had concluded
the tremendous applause fairly shook the
building. Then suddenly somebody
started the cry for Hill" ''FIdll." In an
instant, Maryland, Tennessee, Louisiana.

For fully 10 minutes the applause and
disorder continued, the steady beat of

a new state was pulled up and
waved the applause began anew. After
his first bow to the audience Hill KEEP

qualification that he felt at the recep-
ton accorded him. Friends urged him
ITO take the platform, but he kept shak-

THE DAYS

1t is the Fourth of July and the OPEN

vention. After all the heat and turmoil
and preparation the day is here, All
roads lead here, where at the appointed
hour Chairman Jones will call the con-
Vention to order.
Throughout the night there has been
no sleep for the sky has been lurid and
the sound deafening from rockets, can
non and every device for noisy demon
strations. With the daylight the shock
has increased into n long continued
roar, in which the patriotism of the day
n the enthusiasm of the party are
blended. The heal is still intense and
the brisk breeze does not relieve the
the oppressiveness Of the day. Early
in the day the crowds began to turn
toward Convention hall and all the ap-
proaches to the vast edifice were filled
with an eager and excited throng, surg
ing toward the many entrances and
seeking to gain early admission to the
building. With them came bands.
marching clubs and drum corps and to
the confusion of their crash and hurrah,
was added the constant crack. boom,
sizz of bombs and crackers as the con-
vention enthusiasts and the small boy
We'd with each other in celebrating the
day. The surrounding streets presented
the appearance of a state fair under a
full Roadway with scores of tents and
improvised restaurants giving evidence
that a good share OF this sweltering
mass which has descended upon the
town Is living upon sandwiches and
lemonade. A huge tent, large enough
to accommodate a two-ring circus,
spread it's white wings opposite the
main entrance to the building and dis
penses foaming beverage to the weary
and thirsty wayfarer, while next door a
huge sheet poster that the

APPEARANCE OF THE HALL.
The Convention hall itself, at first
glance, looks crude and imperfect, but
this is only in its external ornamental
ton of cOrnice and column. The sub
stantial elements of the structure are
complete, ready to house the delegates
and h legion of on-lookers in one of the
most perfect convention halls ever Of

vestige remaining. Squads of policemen
were early on the ground keeping back
the crowds and maintaining quiet.
There was little disorder, however, for
the crowds were good natured and their
patriotism was tempered with discretion.

delegates. At 11:10 the band threw in

playing the "Star Spangled Banner" AS
the strains of the patriotic air rang
through the great hail., hundreds of the
auditors rose and remained standing
through the rendition. Even the national
banners which everywhere were arrang-

frame work of the building seemed to
