That was the signal and for the first
time the convention broke forth in
whirlwind of enthusiasm. Men and
women sprang to their feet, delegates,
spectators, staid and distinguished guests,
all animated by common purpose to do
honor to the president. Senator Hanna
looked down in smiling satisfaction at
the tempestuous demonstration. Flags
and handkerchiefs waved everywhere in
pillows of color. For ten seconds, twen-
ty, thirty, minute, the demonstration
kept up, and then. with wave of the

assemblage resume their seats and let
him proceed.

Mr.. Lodge then announced that the call
of states would proceed for nomination
for the vice presidency. Alabama gave
way to Iowa, and Col Late Young one
of the Iowa delegates at large, and ed
itor of the Des Moines Capital, was
recognized. Col. Young was in Cuba at
the time Roosevelt led his gallant rough
riders up San Juan hill, and his reference
to the governors campaign was eloquent
and touching.
The demonstration which followed the
announcement of Col. Young of Gov.
Roosevelt as the candidate of the young
men of the country, who represented their:
desires and their ambitions and embodied
their patriotism and Americanism, was
not second to that accorded the presi-

republican national convention at Jas
O'Clock yesterday, and an hour and ten
minutes later Gov. Theodore Roosevelt, of
New York. was unanimously selected to
stand beside him in the coming battle.
The scenes attending the selections were
tumultuous. Such unanimous demonstra-
tons in honor of the nominees Of ma
tional convention have never been equaled
perhaps in the history of politics in this
country. 1t was love feast, a jubilee, a
ratification meeting.
Senator Foraker of Ohio made the NOM
mating speech, and at his reference to
the leader of the party, the successes al
ready achieved by him and the grave re-
sponsibilities now being carried forward
by him. the applause was frequent and
long-continued. But it remained for his
closing sentence, for the first time men
tioning William Mckinley by name as
the nominee, to electrify the great multi
tude. Pandemonium broke loose. For

His friend Wyvi and he had ridden
side by side, disarmed after the sur
render. Triumphant Beers from whose
lips at intervals rose hoarse psalms of
praise rode on either side and in front
and rear. Some of the ruder Tranvaa-
lians, the young and hot-blooded, Were
reused to a high pitch Of excitement by
their victory, and tainted their prison
ers. threatening them with retribution
as outlawed raiders. The UNI
lucky Uitlanders rode gloomily on I'M

speechlessness by so overwhelming, so
unexpected catastrophe. That spirited
dash. that daring gallop to the Rand,
that revival of medieval chivalry, which
their hot naught-recking brains had
dreamed would be greeted by an en-

defeat, halfway, and an ignominious
procession to prison. perhaps to the gal

abhorrent of such an end, welcoming

raiders under another appellation- The

made friends. and, If he Were reticent
of his past that was no uncommon thing
in ranks wherein few men stood save as
