HER MANNISH SHOES. {
She Was a Little Slender Woman

A woman who is the victim Of the
Dig-shoe habit says that when she took
q trip west a few weeks ago she wore
her ''comforta ble,"' heavy-soled, rbber-
heeled calf-skins. In the sleeping car
she gave orders to the porter to black
them, says the Philadelphia Press. AS
her berth was the first one from the lit
tie chicken-coop place in which the por-
ter attends to his odd jobs, she had no
difficulty in overhearing little CONVEX
sation that took place between him and
two5of the men passengers. IS. y #
: "They calls 'em golf shoes, don't
they 2" the porter remarked.

They're just strong-minded shoes.

'Must be a mighty big woman" put
in the other passenger. "Bet she
weighs 200 if she weighs pound. I
never saw such shoes in my life. Think

But the eavesdropper fell asleep right
there. In the morning three pairs of

then took in a slender little 1O3-pound
figure. She said it was really very

Architectural Jokes.

The build rs OF the old churches in
England were not SO serious but that
they now and then perpetrated joke,
even in stone. On more than one Of
their creations they carved in relief a
scene representing 9 monk preaching
solemnly tosa flock Of geese. The same
humorous spirit is sometimes to be de-
teeted in the domestic architecture Of
early times. Mr.. Hssey gives an in
stance: just upon the boundaries of
Bedf shire and al lord hire former
IL stood q rambling old farmhouse.
The living room was long and low, and
on the center beam that went across
the ceiling was Inscribed this legend: !

was explained by the fact that one
half Of the room was in one county and
5one-haf in the other. The fireplace

WHITE FOR GOVERNOR
OF WEST VIRGINIA

Charleston. w. Va. July 12.-The
feature Of the Republican state con-
vention here yesterday was the key
note speech of Senator Stephen b.
Ell1ins as temporary chairman. The
addresses OF Hon, Charles r. Caldwell
in presenting the name of Hon. A. p.
White for governor and Of Mr.. White
in accepting the nomination and other
addresses were notably brilliant and
received with marked demonstrations,
but the large audience in the over
packed wigwam gave Senator Elkins
the closest attention for an hour and a
half. and he was kept at the wigwam
for half an hour after adjournment re-
ceiving congratulations. Mr.. White
was nominated with unusual unanim-
ity and unlimited enthusiasm. He was
the James G. Blaine Of West Virginia
by his eulogists. not only from his
resemblance to the plumed knight, but
also for the similarity Of his early
experience.
