HOW IT WAS DONE
The Reason Why Mr. Hill Declined
 With Thanks.

Kansas, City, July 6.-(SpsciaD.- One ballot was sufficient to decide the democratic cvice-presidentiaI nomination today, and it was Adlai E. Stevenson in jig over a half-dozen candidates. Since the first day of the convention it has been apparent that the contest be- tween Towne and Stevenson. with Hill. Of New York, always a contingency. Bryan and his Nebraska advisers wanted TOwne. It was anything to keep the silver republicans and popu- lists in line. They realized that for the democrats to take everything in sight meant disappointment and discord. Bryan started in to dictate. He wanted himself nominated for president. Towne for vice-president. and a 16 to l plank The convention, in obedience to senti- ment, not judgment, was willing to accept Bryan but it saw the folly cf adopting a 16 to 1 plank and the fur ther folly of nominating Towne.
 It had no leader until Hill suddenly loomed up and monopolized popular in terest. Then the crisis was on. On Wednesday evening the situation was such that the slightest incentive would have split the convention wide open. and there were astute politicians who saw in the clamor for Hill in the con vention that day. premOnitory symp- toms of q serious reaction against Bryan in favor of Hill. The strain was relaxed by the wise action of some of Stevenson's friends on Wednesday evening. They say that the most in tense feeling was directed against the attempt to foist Towne upon the con- NRntiou

STEVENSON SUGGESTED.

Ben Cable and a number of his friends in the Illinois delegation. after consulting with other delegates, sug- gested Stevensons as a name to con jure with. It was robbing a political grave for a candidate, but the fear cf being afflicted with Towne was so great among the southern democrats that it was anything to beat the man from Minnesota, and Stevenson became the slogan for the time. When the conven- tloh swallowed the wordy Is to 1 plank, II thought it had gone far enough to please Bryan, and it became apparent that the strong democratic states would vote for Stevenson.
 In this attitude of the case the con vention opened today. One ballot was all that was necessary. Towne secured the solid vote of only two state dele gations, the eight votes of Washington and the eighteen instructed votes of his own state, Minnesota. Most of the states, however. cast d divided vote. d respectable portion of which went to him. Nearly two-thirds of the tolal vote was cast for Stevenson and as soon as the announcement was made, many votes were transferred to him and the nomination was made all but unanimous.

 The genial Jap will take his slipper of as you depart and say, with smile: You are going to leave my despicable house in your honorable journeying-I regard thee!"
 The German "lebe wohl' is not par ticularly sympathetic in its sound, but it is less embarrassing to those 1t speeds than the HindOo's performance, who, when you go from him, falls in the dust at your feet.
 The Fiji islanders cross two red festhers. The natives of New Guinea exchange chocolate. The Burmese bend low and say: ''Hib! Hib!"
 The 'auf wiederSehen" of the Aus trians is the most feeling expression of farewell.
 The Cuban would consider his good by anything but 6 cordial one unless he was given 6 good cigar. The South Sea islanders rattle each others whale teeth necklace.
 The Sioux and Blackfeet will at parting dig their spears in the earth a. a sign of confidence and mutual es- teem. This is the origin of the term 'burying the tomahawk."
 In the islands in the straits of the sound the natives at your going will stOop down and clasp your foot.

WOMANS IDLE TEARS
The Modern Heroine of Fiction Ia
 No Longer . Weeping WeaklinH.

What has become of wOman'E tears, idle tears? A cynical old bachelor late ly remarked in the hearing of woman that he wondered what had become of all the crying members of her sex He said that he had not seen a woman cry in some years, and that, so far as he could see, there are just as many things to cry over ak there ever were, and just as many women. He did not object to the absence of tears; he only wondered about it.
 This thing has received attentions of various kinds before now. It was first noticed in the novels. The young wom- an in modern fiction does not do nearly so much weeping as she used to do. To be sure, she has not always so much excuse for it. When a young lacy was carried away by fierce and determined lover whom she did not want, and toIu that unless she married him at once her family and all her immediate friends would be killed, there was really con siderable excuse for tears and swoons on her part. This type of heroine flour ished in the beginning of the present century. She was followed by the hero inc who cried as a chilG does to get something she wanted-and usually got it, if it happened not to be the moon or anything equally unsttainable.
 Sometimes she was 6 young lady of religious predilectiOns and shed tears over the sorrows of others, or over her own religious sentiments. It has been estimated by careful statisticiAns that Miss Ellen Montgomery, heroine Of "The Wide, Wide World" must have shed at least five gallons, twOquarts and one pint of tears in the course of her adventures in two volumes. But the young lady in the modern work of tlc- tion does not cry. If she IS of Q pas sionate nature she now and then "burstS into a storm of sobs," but she does not often do it, as old-fashioned people would say, before folks" She is more likely to preserve a calm and more or less uncomprehended silence. Another type of modern heroine is the cheery girl who endures all her tribulations in silence, or laughs about them, and IS the sunshine of the family circle while her heart is secretly breaking. It must be confessed that this type of young lady would be considerably more to the taste of the ordinary man than the old fashioned type of fearful patience. The mans woman"-courageo gay, tOl- erant and reserved as to her private feelings-iS coming to the front in fic- tion, and this ideal is decidedly worth studying by the nOvel-reading girls of to-day.-Chicago Chronicle.
