Slate Lacks Just That of "Getting

President"

Madison. Wis. July 1S.-The Re
publicans of Wisconsin finished their
work III convention at $50 last night
after nominating the following ticket:
For governor, Robert NJ LaFollette,
of Madison; lieutenant governor, Jas.
o. Davidson, of Soldiers Grove; Sec
rotary of state. Walter L. Houser, Of
MondOvi; state treasurer, John j.
Kempf, of Milwaukee; attorney gen.
eral, l.. M. Sturdevant, of Neillsville;
superintendent of public instruction,
Charles j. Cary, of Delevan; railroad
commissioner, John W. Thomas, of
Chippewa; insurance commissioner,
Zeno Nj. Host, of Milwaukee.
Two Slate Men Miss Competition.
Robert NJ. LaFollette, who was
again chosen to head the state ticket,
received the nomination over John NJ
Whitehead by an overwhelming ma
jority-LaFollette, 100; Whitehead,
266 With two exceptions the ticket
as a whole went through as figured
out in advance. Those were the nom-
nations for state treasurer and rail-
road commissioner. John Kempf, of
Milwaukee. won out in the contest for
state treasurer by aid of the Stalwart
faction, who switched their votes be-
fore the ballot closed. This was the
greatest surprise sprung in the con-
.yention, as Joseph G. End, of She
bOygan, was looked upon as sure Of
the nomination.
Switching Also Lands Thomas.
However, when the switching COM
menced it continued until Kempf had
a big lead and finally landed the NOM
1nation by unanimous vote. John W.
Thomas. Of Chippewa, landed the NOM
ination for railroad commissioner over
Jonas Swenholt. the slate candidate.
In similar way. Perhaps the most
exciting contest of the day was for
the place on the ticket of superinten-
dent of public instruction, between
Cary and Harvey. Numerous candi-
dates made the work of the conven-
tioE slow.
Great Ovation to LaFollette.
Governor LaFollette was given a
great ovation upon being escorted to
the convention hall after being mott
fed Of his nomination. The delegates
arose en- masse when the governor
made his appearance. and cheered vo-
ciferOusly. He electrified the delegates

speech of acceptance. the feature of
which was n sting ing rebuke to those
of the party who failed to support the
principles laid down in the last plat
form He also warned the members
of the party against supporting any
man aspiring to a place in the legisla-
ture who would not agree to stand by
the platform.
General George E. Bryant was re-
elected as chairman of the state cen
trail committee without opposition.

HANDLING BIG SERPENTs.
Poisonous Snakes Tn Demand by

Poisonous Snakes Tn Demand by
 Doctors For Experimenting.
 "1n handling a big snake you must always touch him with a soft, smooth, gliding motion of the hand, making it feel to him as much as possible like the touch of another snake, and, be- sides, you must be careful to keep his tail out straight. Keep the tail straight, and he can't coil on you. His bite is nothing, for he has not poison, but bis coil around your leg or arm or body will crush the bones.
 1.-The poisonous snakes-the water, moccasins, rattlesnakes and copper heads-are fought for zoos. Now and then a doctor buys them heavily for awhile. He wants to experiment with their poison. After he has been bitten two or three times he stops buying.
 There are a number of people who buy snakes for pets. These people al- ways, without an exception, make pets also of rats, mice and turtles. Any one fond of snakes is sure to be fond of those other things too. They keep their snakes and turtles and rats as near as possible to them. Often they keep them in their bedrooms. There was a young man who used to come here last year after pine snakes-a university student That young man would sit with his hand in among the coils of cageful of snakes for hours. He would take ones head in his hands and lift its face close up to his own and gaze for long time in its eyes. Then he would hold it off and stroke it and study its changing colors in a kind of trance. I don't know what pleasure or he got out of the snakes He bought over a dozen from me dur ing the year and kept them in his bed room in a boarding house. They all escaped one night through a rathole and got among the neighbors and rais- ed general ballyhoo."-Philadelphia Record

The Story of q Brass Founders
 Transformation of Gambrinus.
 A story Is told of a brass founder who was one day visited by friend acting as agent for one of the cities of Central America. The agent asked what It would cost to cast a statue of Christopher Columbus for the public square of the city. The amount was far in excess of the sum which the man had at his disposal. He was about leaving in despair of being able to se- cure the statue when the brass founder said:
 Come back in the junk yard and let us see what can be found there"
 He went back, and the brass founder showed him a colossal statue of Gam brinus, recently removed from the front of large brewing establishment. Under his feet rested a beer keg, in his hand was large and overfowing schooner, his beard was long and shag- gy. and about his brows was wreathed a garland of barley and hops.
 Why, this will never do," said the commission merchant. '1 want a stat ue of Columbus
 "Wait until have touched this one up. Come back in about a week and see what you think of It. If 1t suits you. you can have 1t for the amount you have at your disposal"
 As soon as the visitor had gone the brass founder set two men at work on the figure of Gambrinus. They re- moved the beer keg from under his right foot and placed there an anchor and a coil of rope. from his hand they removed the goblet and substituted globe. with the continents traced on 1t; from his brow they took the wreath of barley and hops and substituted a wreath of laurel and then proceeded to trim up his whiskers. The finishing touch consisted In putting at the base of the statue "Cristoforo Colombo"
 When the commission merchant came. he was delighted with the figure and, purchasing 1t. shipped It to the Central American city. where 1t adorns the public square and Is looked upon with veneration by the citizens of that town New York Times

 A young man went to The Sun office one day and asked to see the editor in chief. He would not be rebuffed by the Subordinates and after some delay was admitted. He stated his business with out moments loss of time
 "Mr. Dana" he said, 'T believe could be of ome use on this paper, and want you give me trial If you don't find ne of any use, you needn't pay me an salary. and if you do 1 shall want a good salary. If I don't find my proper groove in a month, you ran drop me out"

 "Yes, sir. l am a graduate of two newspaper offices, one country week ly and the other a daily paper in city of 100000 inhabitants"
