ing delegates. The largest repre-
sentation yet to arrive. came down
from the near by city of Winston, it
being a large committee of the Glenn
Club with leading workers for him,
all wearing large white streamers,
with pictures of Glenn stamped on
them, the most notable and surprising

and eloquent champion of Anglo
Saxon supremacy is shown up as a
ginger cake colored man.
Glenn Club headquarters were open
ed up in great shape at twelve o'clock
in the King building near the build
ing in which the convention will be
held and already the big lemonade
tubs are full for all who wish to
drink that celebrated temperance

ocrats on earth are on guard at
these headquarters, among them be-
ing DIR. Horton, Col. Garland Webb
John w. Morrisey, John Richard John

headquarters in the new store room OF
the Arcade, the new annex to the Ben
boy Hotel. just opposite the main ho-
tell building.

natured but old fashioned species OF
bluff by desiring to bet every body
