The State Democratic Executive
Committee met at $50 o'clock last
night with full membership pres
ent and committee of five, consist
ing of Messrs. Moss, Magill, Davis,
Traxler and Kitch, was appointed to
examine the tabulation made by the
chairman and secretary from the
official returns received.
From Greenville came up ques
ton as to whether if five candidates
received majority of the votes for
the legislature the necessary number
could be declared nominees of the
primary. The committee simply
brought out the point that if five
received a majority of the vote, four
were to be nominated the four high
eft we're the nominees.
In q short time the sub committee
reported the official result, the tabu-
lation having been most carefully
made. The report of the committee
was adopted.
Senator Manning moved that a
subcommittee of one from each con-
gressional district be appointed by
the chairman to tabulate and declare
the result of the second primary.
There was considerable discussion,
many thinking that such a delega-
ton of power might brew trouble.
Senator Manning finally withdrew
his motion.
It was about to be determined that
the committee meet on the Tuesday
following the second primary instead
of the Friday following, in order to
save the necessity for telegrsphic
and telephone reports, when it was
found that there was nothing in the
rules on the subject and the matter
was dropped. So was proposition
to have a subcommittee come in
advance to tabulate the returns.
The results of the election were
then declared as follows:

STRENGTH AND FOOD.
The First Comes From the Last.

When proper food is used in sickness the recovery is much more rapid and sure, and food that Is good and easy of digestion is right for anyone.
 Mrs. H. L. Gordon of Cory, Pa, was taken down with nervous prostration and heart trouble about a year ago and for weeks it seemed that she could not live.
 She save, "The medicine took for my nerves and heart injured my stomach and grew steadily worse until could retain nothing. For weeks I was kept alive on one teaspoonful of beef tea and one of lime water every hour and after a while could not even continue that. I grew weaker and weaker and finally was compelled to use sweet oil to feed the bowels, until one day my daughter suggested that I try Grape Nuts dry, as I could not retain any thing moistened. After the third day I began to steadily mend and for weeks and months I ate them three times a day.
 When I began eating Grape-Nuts weighed 75 lbs; now I weigh flo and am doing my housework and eating nearly any and everything. tell every one hear complain of poor stomach to try Grape-Nuts and many have on the strength of my cure.''

CYCLE SEASON CLOSED.
Concluding Races at the Coliseum Last
 Night

With the playing of Auld Lang Syne by the Second regiment band last night the cycle racing season at the local Col iseum came to close. The season has been success in many ways and would have been more so if the weather man had been a bit more friendly. Manager voigt provided a series of racing cards the equal of which has never been seen in this city, and his endeaVors have been appreciated, as evidenced by the generous patronage and the liberalty of those patrons.
 In the mile professional race for the championship of the state, and in which only residents of the state could partic- ipate, w. s. Fenn, the speedy Bristol rider barely defeated J. P. Jacobson, of this city. The time was miserably slow, as the contest was a loafing match until the last lap when there was a desperate fight on the part of both men to cross the tape first. Fenn won by q very few inches.
 The motor-paced race was won by Freeman. In the first heat of five miles the motor which was pacing Nelson was broken and Nelson also met with an ac- cident at the same time. He was thrown from his wheel and rolled over and over several times before stopping at the bottom of the track. He was uninjured, although slightly stunned by ! the force of being thrown to the track
 while travelling at a 1:40 clip. By req son of the breaking of this motor the
 second heat was declared off and Free \ man and Nelson rode five miles each, with Freeman's motor as pace-maker | against time. Freeman won by four

 miles in 7:38. His best mile was made

Captain Chadwick, Trainer Murphy and Coach Swan watched the men carefully and critically. Chasing punts down the field and falling on the ball comprised the principal work of the day. It will probably be several days before the men are lined up against each other.

Where there is smoke, there is tire," which signifies that wherever you see the crowds there is some- thing doing" And where there is something doing" thereto the mass es go. The time of artificial sensa- tions is past, they will never more stand water. The people want proofs and plenty of them. The Hirsh stores have given them during their three previous tailoring events, and have gained the confidence of their, customers and those naturally have transmitted it to their friends who came, saw, and ordered. Instead of simply expecting to find fabrics as good as last year, they were sur prised to find line far superior in quality and the selection more varied and much greater.
 Cloth and labor is higher this year, and still we keep the price S12.50, believing we will take a great many more orders, which will make our profits just as big as last year when fabrics were cheaper and tail- ors wages lower.

A GREAT SUCCESS.
The Subscription Tailor Sale at the Big
 Hirsh Stores.

The SubSCrlptlOn ldllOF Sdle dI CLFe DIS
 Hirsh Stores.
 As an illustration of the genius, hustle and enterprise of Fred Hirsh, of the Hirsh Stores, the illustrated advertise ment in the Journal and Courier this morning affords ample evidence. The fourth subscription tailoring sale is now in progress and the crowds that daily visit the stores are of great proportions. The advertisement in to-day's issue il- lustrates the busy scene with a rush of patrons in the store on the opening day of the big sale, now going on. The pie ture is from photograph true to life, and to many the persons whose like -nesses appear are easily recognized.
 The sale is the greatest success of its kind ever conducted by this very pop ular business house. Hundreds and thousands have visited the stores and ordered suits to measure at the very low and commendably reasonable price of $1250 per suit. The texture of the clothes is of extraordinary superiority, despite the rise in price of goods, and the measurements and cuttings are the work of experts. The sale will close on Friday and those who have not visited the Hirsh Stores, inspected the stock and submitted their orders for up-to- date tailor-made suits should do so at I once

government. This comes with special force from Dr. Mangasarian. because he made public addresses at the time of the terrible Armenian masacret, declar- ations which caused Armenians, when they met him at Constantinople, to talk with him in whispers.
 He explained the situation as follows:
 "The Sultan has told the Patriarch that if the Armenian revolution is dis continued he will grant the Armenian reforms demanded. namely, protection from Kurds, who are continually rob- ping the Armenian farms and carrying away the Armenian girls.
 "The Patriarch told me that the rev. olutionists are band of men who go about stirring up outrages against the government, which cause the massa- cres. Of course 1t Is right to denounce the massacres The Patriarch told me was right in that. And the Patriarch sent his thanks to the Armenians in America for their financial assistance. But he said the Sultan's government thinks that he and other Armenians are stirring up their American and Eu- ropean Armenian friends to attacks on his government therefore he urges them to tlesist."
 It was at the risk of his liberty that Dr. Mangasarian started for Con- stantinople on leaving Chicago May 2S He went to see his aged father, an Ar menian merchant in Constantinople, who was then dangerously i'll. On &C., count of an edict which had gone forth | from the Sultan against all Armenians outside of Turkey, Dr. Mangasarian could not get Charles Henrotin, consul | for Turkey in Chicago, or the consul at Venice in Italy to wise his passport. But on boarding a ship at Trieste bound | for Constantinople he sent a telegram to his father.
 | When he reached Constantinople he was arrested because his passport was not signed. But on going "upstairs''- that Is, to the office of the superior port officer-he was welcomed. Through the influence of his father the prefect of police in the Sultan's cabinet had sent letter admitting him. Dr. Man. gasarian promised his father to return next summer, and an influential pasha, who gave him two interviews, promised to provide him with passport.
 Politically I found that the Ger mans are the most favored people in Turkey" said Dr. Mangasarian. "The English used to be. The Germans have pushed to the front, because during the Armenian massacre the German Elm peror patted the Sultan on the back sent him photograph of himself. The Germans are seeking market, but the Turks say they like American goods better. This Turkish move has made the Russians angry with Germany, Englishmen told me war between England and Germany is sure to come Germany is becoming isolated; Ger many has not friend, while France and England are really becoming quite friendly"
 Regarding the Zionist movement, Dr
 Mangasarian said it was futile. He pointed out that the Sultan had already turned down Dr. Herzl, and would nev- CT sell Palestine to the Jews. He says the collecting of funds among the hon. est Jews of America is a great swim
 ding scheme to provide salaries fol

OLD CREEDS DECLINE.
Abstention From Church in European
 Countries.


 Abstention From Church in European
 Countries.
 q gathered from many personal ln- terviews that the educated people of Europe have no further use for the old creeds. The educated classes of Eng land, Germany and France have gotten farther away from the old ideas of re- Bllgion and philosophy than I had SUD- posed"
 M, M. Mangasarian gave the above statement as the most important result of his observations on a trip from which he has just returned after 100 days of travel. He visited many noted philosophers, professors and writers of Europe. his main object being to learn the status of the movement of ideas on religion and philosophy.
 Among the distinguished men whom he met and interviewed were Professor Labriola of the University of Rome; Professor Terri, colleague of the great Italian writer, Lombroso; schoolmate of Max Nordau, and several distln- guished Germans; Professor PascarelI of the University of Paris, and many | leaders in France.
 | In England Dr. Mangasarian was made a member of the Liberal National | Club of London, and there met and talked with a large number of men who are thoroughly informed on thought movement, George Jacob Holyoke o1 Brighton. a neighobr and friend of Her bert Spencer, one of the greatest living philosophers, entertained the leader o1 the "Independent Religious Society ir 1 Chicago. He took Dr. Mangasarian tc Spencer's home, but the aged philoso- pher-he is now eighty-two-had gone to a farm for rest.
 "Tbe ideas of Spencer are gaining ground all over the world" said Dr Mangasarian "In Europe hardly any men attend the Roman Catholic church This was pointed out again and agair in Germany. In London some of the wealthy people carry their Bibles il their hands when they go to Hyde Park on Sunday. They have not beer to church but they do this for effect because they say the masses should g to church.
 "One Englishman told me that ] church where the admission is free ant , A. music hall where there is heavy charge stand side by side, on Regen street. and that the music hall is pack ed every Sunday, while the church il always empty.
 "A rationalistic press has been estab 1ished in England. Emile Zola and Joll Morley are directors. Spencer is als' on the committee.

PREDICTS WANE OF COAL.
T.. HI. CIergue at 500 Canal Opening
Says Water Power Era Is Near.

T.. III. Clergue at 500 Canal Opening
Says Water Power Era Is Near.
At the banquet given the other night
at Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. by the Con-
solidated Lake Superior company in
connection with the celebration Of the
formal opening of the power canal E.
III. Clergue said this canal is but the
beginning Of the development in the
500, says the Chicago Record-Herald.
Speaking Of water power development
in general, he said:
''The fall of water between Hamilton
and Quebec is equal to 100000 tons
of coal year. and predict that in ten
years not a ton of coal will be used in
Canada between Hamilton and Quebec
for manufacturing purposes. In the
state of Michigan not ton of coal will
be used for manufacturing purposes.
Water power will have taken it's
place"
OF the possibilities of the 500 Mr..
Clergue said:
There is no limit to the prospects Of
the 500. In five years you will see here
steel plants beyond your dreams. -four
mills to feed the nation. shipyards to
build and vessels to carry the products
of all these industries to the markets
OF the world"

Foreign Attache First to Discover
the Discrepancy.
A keen eyed attache of a foreign ie-
cation some time ago asked CCloaei
Bingham Of the engineer corps why
there were two presidential flags, ont
for the army and one for the navy,
says a Washington special to the New
York World. The colonel was sur
prfsed. He examined the flags and
found that the army flag had a shield
showing seven white and six red
stripes, while the navy flag bore seven
red and six white stripes.
That started discussion, and Assist
ant Secretary Darling Of the navy laid
It down that the navy design was the
proper one. Finally the matter was
referred to the state department, the
custodian Of the great seal of the Unit
ed States, the device borne upon the
flag of the president, and the other day
Secretary Hay sent letter to the navy
department saying that the army flag
is the one properly made. The navy
flag will be changed.

LlBERALITY OF AN ORIENTAL

Siam Crown Princes Handsome
Gifts TO HIS Intortainer8.
Just before he left Washington the
crown prince of Siam said to the New
York World correspondent:
my one disappointment during this
visit to Washington is that the c0nQi-
lions were not such that l could meet
the charming ladies whose grace and
verve have made them famous through
out the world. In Europe we constant
ly hear extolled the delights of life at
the American capital. Diplomatic and
distinguished travellers sometimes pre-
fer Washington to Paris because Of
the hospitable and gracious manners
OF the hOStesses who make life here SO
pleasant. AS my visit to Washington
could not be postponed until the sea-
son had begun, this misfortune was
necessary. l hope however, before |
leave the country to become acquaint-
ed with many representative Ameri
can women.

the simplicity of American official life.
This is very striking after life in Eu
ropean capital, where the life of the
sovereigns is most ceremonious and
surrounded with a grandeur intended
to impress the multitude. When a for
eigner contemplates the greatness of
the American republic and knows it's
potent influence in world affairs, pic

The crown prince and his brother
behaved with oriental magnificence
during their sojourn in Washington.
Whoever rendered them the slightest
service was splendidjy rewarded. They
gave employees many tips Of a hun
dred dollars, which were paid in bright
notes lately drawn from the treasury
department The bellbOys and eleva-
tor conductors received tips of So. In
deed the princes never gave gratuity
of, less than this sum. Their presents
of jewelry and souvenirs to those
charged with their entertainment ri
vailed. if they did not surpass, those
presented by Prince Henry of Prussia.
Mr.. Roessle, manager Of the Airing
ton hotel, received a splendid desk set
of Siamese gold and silver. in filigree
and enamel. and richly adorned with
precious stones. Colin S. Studs Of the
Pennsylvania railroad was presented
with case of Siamese spoons richly
enameled. The clerks of the hotel
were also remembered with handsome
gifts in the way of canes. umbrellas
and cardcases.
