A firtatious young man with an eye
for pretty women had an experience
recently which he is telling, although
the joke is decidedly on himself He
was riding out on a crowded car one
evening when he felt a gentle pressure
on his foot He hardly noticed it, but
when moment later he felt it again
he gently raised his foot with re-
Spouse. He looked up with a smile to
the woman beside him, who, although
pretty, did not seem to be the least
inclined to flirt. He was puzzled.
Again he felt the touch on his foot,
but not smile Just then the car
gave sudden lurch and his umbrella,
which had been hanging on his arm,
almost polSed hole in his shoe. He
would have kicked himself ii the car
hadn't been 50 crowded. Kansas City

would be humorous to relieve himself
of joke at the expense Of the Celes-

TT MAY BE MIR. TOW n 4.

Some time since it was proml-
nentlv announced that Mr.. Bryan's
choice for the democratic candidate
for the presidency in 1904 is Charles
A. Towne. 1t is, however, more
than probable that Mr.. Bryan's
friends will not control the national
convention. 1t is foregone con-
clusion that the last two national
platforms-the Chicago and the
Kansas City-will not be formally
endorsed and readopted. Whether
Mr. Towne is DESTROYS of being a
candidate upon single money
standard does not appear, but 1T
seems very evident that he is in high
favor, with Tammany, as witness the
recent dispatch from New Yorf:
s.Prominent Tammany men are
discussing with much interest the
announcement from the west that
Charles A. Towne would be Bryan's
choice for president in 1904. Since
his residence was established IN New
York former Senator Towne has
grown in favor with the Tammany
leaders. He was one of the politi-
cal orators on the Fourth of July,
and has been selected to deliver the
Grafton at the commemoration of the
centenary of the execution of Rob
ert Emmett, at the Academy of Mu-
sic, September 30. ,
"Mr. Towne has strong political
backing here and his friends declare
that they will shortly start boom
for him for the democratic presiden-
tial nomination. Tammany may
throw it's entire influence for him in
the national convention next year."
