Man Most.
BY HARRIS R. WILCOX.

more than a tenth of your income If
it is $1,000; and $44 more than twen-
ty-fourth If it is $1,000. But whether
your income is $1,000 or $1,000, or twice
the latter amount, you cannot escape;
the greatest graft Of them all has for
it's victims the rich, the poor and the
various grades between these extremes
One hundred and forty-four dollars
bad enough; but not the whole tale
by any manner of means.
Tips on the Summer Trip.
You are undoubtedly a believer in
the modern idea of taking a trip from
home at least once a year, in order
that you and your family may get a
change of air and scenery. You don't
believe in being skinny on your one
outing, so you take a cab instead Of
the street car to the railroad station.
OF course, cabby gets a quarter when
he has deposited you at the end of the
trip. Then you rush into the hands
of a grinning sleeping car porter.
Next morning, when he Is busting you
off a few minutes before you are to
ahght at seashore or mountains. you
drop quarter into the hand that is
held out suggestively before your eyes,
and, IL he has done anything out of
the ordinary for you, twice that sum.
The Hotel Tip.
Eventually You reach the resort and
your hotel. The hackman who is
supposed to drive you there for moth
ing gets a dime, so does the boy who
struggles with your grip and sees that
1t is placed in your room, while 25
cents is passed over TO the baggage
porter, in order that you may not
have to go without your trunk over
night. A good start-and the pace
keeps up during the twelve days you
remain at the hostelry. You meekly
hand a dime to the bell boy every time
he brings you a pitcher OF Ice water; a
dime every whip stitch to the eleva-
tor boy; the same above the price of
a shine to the bootblack. But not a
dime TO summer resort waiter.
Rather a quarter. You had one of the
gentry to throw one of your 10-cent
pieces on the floor when you offered Il
to him. Since then you have given
what your fellow victims give. Con-
sequently, when you start for the
home-bound train, after having again
tipped the baggage porter and auu
hands all around, you find, II you have
kept account OF expenditures, that one

HOW the FIRST BALLOT STANDS

the uninstructed delegates on the first
ballot. In that case Parker would then
have ago votes. or almost half the total
number. Those who share this conf
dence in Parker's strength expect the
New York Judge to be nominated on
the second ballot. after Wilconsin and
Massachusetts, have cast a compliment
tary vote for Wall and Olney.
Parker goes into the convention with
practically the solid support Of the en-
tire south. The southern states that
have instructed for him are Tennessee.
Texas, Mississippi, Louisiana. Georgia.
Arkansas and Alabama. The southern
state which have sent uninstructed del
egates, but which have gone on record
In favor of Judge Parker, are Virginia,
South Carolina, Kentucky. and six Of
the ten delegates from Florida. The
other four Florida delegates are for
Hearst North Carolina declined to in
dorse any candidate, though majority
of the delegates from that state are
understood to favor Parker.
These figures show apparently that
Parker is the strongest man in the race.

Despite the strongest denials from the
parties concerned. the rumor will not
down that a combination Is forming to
down Judge Parker. Senator German
Is credited with being the chief pro-
moter Of the movement. Others whose
names are mentioned in the same con-
nectiOn are ex-senator Smith of New
Jersey, John r. Mclean of Ohio. and
Col ]. NJ. Guffey of Pennsylvania. In
justice to these leaders it should be
added that no proof exists that they
are concerned In an anti-Parker con-
spiracy.
In regard to Senator German. how
ever, a strong belief exists that he will
be one of the dominant figures Of the
convention and a prime factor in the
/ final result. Others whose attitude may
be counted on to influence the result
are William Jennings Bryan. John p
Hopkins Of Illinois and Leader Murphy
of Tammany. Bryan is expected to give
sincere support to Hearst as long as
there appears to be a possibility of the
latter getting the nomination. Whom
