Bill Coughlin will be with the team.
There is no foundation in stories
printed TO the effect that 1 would trade
him to the Detroit club. Coughlin is
WashingtOns chief asset. and TO trade
or sell him would be TO incur the dis
pleasure OF the local fans. The Detroit

THE LITTLE BEE.

There was once politician,
And he had little bee,
A buzzin' and a buzZin
Where an insect shouldn't be.
And the bee kept on buzzin'
Till the politician got
A notion he was born to tell
The people what is what.
And his mouth got broad and roomy,
And his tongue got long and thin,
AS he shouted and he spouted
On the reasons he should win.
And he spent his cash in handfuls,
But he didn't care for that,
While the little bee was busy
In the high part of his hat.
And he saw himself a sittin'
In the Office he had won,
And everybody talkin'
OF the things that he had done.
But, alas! the morning after,
When he crawled out of his bed,
He listened and he listened
But the little bee was dead!

Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
Of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion reallyfeeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems TO find
it and set the matter right.

Mig hit Before tho Nomination.

Pandemonium reigned In the con
vention hall last night. There wal
not a semblance of order. Bogus
tickets had been passed on the dool
keeper, and the hall was packed to
suffocation. The reading of the plat
! form was merely formal. No one
| heard it: and when voted on only
those who made it had the slightest
conception of what it contained. II
was reported unanimously by the com
mittee. however. and without debate
was adopted without objection by
reclamation.
The fight over the platform had been
IN the committee. Mr.. Hill OF New
York, aided and abetted by Senator
Daniel of Virginia. and Others OF their
ilk. sought to prostitute the party to
the service of the plutocrats by insert
ing gold plank in the platform. And
but for the determined courage and
unexampled ability of William Jen-
nings Bryan of Nebraska, would have
done so. But the matchless eloquence
of this peerless leader, was more than
enough for their chicanery, and the
offending plank was stricken out MI.
BRYAN also succeeded in having the
tariff plank amended to his liking, and
one or two other minor changes made,
and then pronounced himself easonably
we'll satisfied. Hill took his defeat
with becoming grace. and Daniel, II
he followed his usual custom, got
glcriously drunk. :.
Immediately upon the adoption of
the platform, nominations were de-
clared in order. and the roll was
