POPULISTS NOMINATE

! Springfield, Ill.,, July 6.-Thomas
E. Watson, of Georgia. for president,
and Thomas II. Tibbles. of Nebraska,
/ for vice president, was the ticket non,i-
mated by the populist national
convention. The names OF William v.
I Allen of Nebraska and Samuel w. Will
/ liams of Indiana were also placed be-
/ fore the convention for president but
pleted in the roll call, their names We're
Withdrawn, and Watson nominated by
acelamation. Former Senator Allen
made good his word that he would not
| enter into any scramble for the nonli-
i nation, and while the nominations We're
being made he twice instructed the
l'chairman of the Nebraska delegation
/ to say that his name must rot go be-
fore the convention but in the face OF
! this. he received over 400 VOTES, ana
many believe he would have been NOM
| mated had he given his consent TO be 4
! candidate. Whether Watson Will ac-
cept the nomination or not, no one IN
the convention seemed to know and all
efforts to secure some definite informa-
| ton from Watson's friends failed. Wat
son was quoted as saying that II the
democrats at st. Louis nominated VIII
liam r. Hearst he tWatson) would
support him for president.
Williams, of Indiana, who worked
| harder for the nomination and who
1 made more claims than anyone else,
made a poor showing and when his
own state was called eleven OF the
twenty -four delegates refused to sup
port him ami voted for Allen. He soon
withdrew in favor of Watson and NOV
ed to make the nomination of Watson
unanimous.
There We're five nominations for vice
president, Thomas H. Kibbles. of Ne
hraska; Theodore r. Rynder. of Penn
sylvania: l.. II. Weller, of Iowa; George
r. Washburn. of Massachusetts; and
Samuel W. Williams. of Indiana. The
two latter declined and Tibbles prac-
tically received all them votes on the
first ballot and was nominated by ac-
clamation.

of the blossoms and even to the heat OF
the sun upon his back, blind to the
beauties of the town and deaf to the
sound of his own name which some one
was calling after him, he plodded on to-
ward the station.
Bert Tyrrell!" cried the voice for the
fourth time, and almost in his ear.
He turned and stared at two fine
horses glfttering in silver mounted har-
ness, and then at liveried coachman
and finally at a very charming woman
in an open carriage.
"Lottie!" he said in dazed tone,
"Lottie!"
She surveyed him with an amused
and quizzical smile.
You haven't changed bit" said she
The words affected him with surprise
first, because he fancied himself grown
old and haggard. and. second. because
Charlotte herself was so radically diff
ferent that the sight OF her seemed to
change all the world. Yet he could moi
have expressed his feeling; she looked
no older; she had not gained flesh, as
pretty girls are Interestingly apt to do.
Get in," she said. 1--WE must have a
good talk while take you wherever
you're going."
He smiled grimly.

AS he climbed to seat beside her la
boriously, like man of sixty, she gave
the coachman the word "home." Then
for the first time the elegance of the
equipage and the simple magnificence
of Charlotte's attire impressed them
selves upon him. The blood fed away
from his heart and tingled in his ears.
Really" he stammered. II have

from the road and passed through a
stately arched gateway. house was
visible through the vistas of old trees

Out from the shadows of the woods
stole Iniun Charley The whole bear
ing and aspect of the man had chang
ed. His eye cleaned with distant,
| farseeng fire of its own, which took
no account of anything but some re-
mote vision. He stole along almost
| furtively, but with proud, upright
carriage of his neck. a backward tilt
of his fine head. distension OF his
nostrils, that lent to his appearance a
panther-like pride and steulthiness. No
one saw him Suddenly he broke
through the group and mounted the
steps beside Collins.

and with sudden gesture held out be-

The medieval barbarity Of the thing

Of scalping were long since past, had

err men cheered a rescue. He thrilled
over the magnificent gesture of the
gambler scattering his stake in largesse
to Death.

from fun breathed prosperity to life
less failure.
| His view was the inverse Of his mas
| come a very little thing in contrast to
the great, sweet. elemental truth that
the dream girl had enunciated. To
Collins the affair was miles vaster than
the widest scope of his own narrow
| life.
The firm could not take up its notes
when they came due; it could not pay
the interest on the mortgages. which
would now be foreclosed; it could not
even pay in full the men who had
| worked for it-that would come under
a courts adjudication.
| He had therefore watched Thorpe's
desperate sally to mend the weakened
whose entire universe is in the keeping
of the chance moment. 1t must be re-
membered that at bottom, below the
outer consciousness, Thorpe's final de-
cision had already grown to maturity.
On the other hand, no other thought
than that of accomplishment had even
entered the little bookkeeper's head.
The rescue and all that it had meant
had hit him like stroke of apop!exy.
and his thin emotions had curdled to
hysteria. Full of the idea he appeared
before the men.
With rapid, almost incoherent speech
he poured 1t out to them. Professional
caution and secrecy We're forgotten.
Wallace Carpenter attempted to push
through the ring for the purpose of
stopping him. A gigantic river man
kindly but firmly held him back.

pendent--or about to become so-upon
the dubious issue of the legal battle
which he himself had come home to
fight.
His experience of the former contest
filled him with cold fear. which was ten
times intensified by the condition of his
sisters affairs, and the knowledge that a
few thousands in cash would have set
all right and that he couldn't raise that
sum, nor even 10 per cent Of it. com

may be easily read. That was the case

Charlotte pitied him too much to care
what he said. But Tyrrell with a pen
was another man. His arguments upon

and single love word at SO great a
distance. She had to sill down all alone
with his letter and fight. every word in

the correspondence ceased. and the
pretty promise they had made in one
bright hour amid the long gloom was
broken.
Tyrrell remained ir, England five
years. and when he returned to Amer
lea he did not know whether Charlotte
was dead or alive, whether she had
been rival at the outset of their &C
quaintance. whether she had preserved
her prettiness or had faded early. She
was nearing the calamitous age of thir-

To the questions above suggested
