Chairman James K Jones of
Arkansas called the Democratic
National Committee to order at
noon on Tuesday in the ballroom
of the Shoreham hotel in Wash
ington, to select the time and place
for the Democratic national con-
vention. Distinguished Demo-
Gratis were present from all parts of
the country. There was strong
sentiment in favor of the central
west, the meeting to be week or
two after the Republican conven-
ton. Great harmony prevailed,
with tendency to minimize contest
ed questions.

tive Committee has selected st.
Louis as the place for holding the
next Democratic National Ccnven-

Why He Stayed.

The chapel of northern fishing
village used to depend for its SER
vices on the occasional help of the
clergy of the nearest town. One
very wet Sunday the clergyman
who volunteered to do the duty
drove over in a fly. Tolling the
chapel bell himself, he announced
his arrival to the natives. but for a
long time no one appeared.
At last one solitary person came
in and took seat at the very back
of the chapel. The clergyman then
found his surplice and conducted
the service. That ended, he re-
marked to his audience of one that
perhaps sermon was superfiuous.
"Oh. please go on, sir" was the
aattering reply. and the clergyman
mounted the pulpit.
In the course of his address he
expressed the fear that he was
wearying his hearer. and was graf
ified to be told that he could not
be too long. The sermon, conse-
quently, was heightened out to
some forty minutes.
When it was ended the preacher
expressed desire to shake hands
with the gentleman who had lis
tensd to him with such evident ap-
probation. Imagine his conster-
nation at discovering on a nearer
view { for he was somewhat short
eighted) that he had been preach
ing to the driver of his fly, who
was all the while charging over
time.-London Tit Bits.
