Lady, l beg thee to bark to my ditty,
Sung meath thy sill in the full of the
moon.
Wake, for the nightingale's chanting so
witty
Near where the boarder is eating his
prune.
Wake in a hurry; dress in q furry;
Hustle yourself into boot and galOche;
Pluck a syringa; fly with the singer
Down where the prettiest mermaiGens
wash.
Lady, I love thee a miclle and muckle.
Come; entertain me an hour or so.
1 will lose money to YOU at penuchle-
Where will you find any layisher beau?
Lady, art dressing? Don't keep me guess
ing;
Stop not for hooks, and, oh, stay not
for eyes
Don't keep me waiting-Td have gone
skating
But that my tootsies are all the wrong
size.
Lady, I'm only a wandering loony,
Singing his love on n talking machine;
Still if you deem that my chanson is
tUney
Pass me, in mercy, a cold lima bean.
Come, il you won't; stay, if you don't;
Hunger has seized me, and there lies
the rub.
Spry about, Nelly; hand me some jelly;
Toss me some provender vittles and

If the profession of running an ele

with contempt and if the elevators

been to blame for it. Taking my own

it a duty to sound a note of warning.

PRESTIGE is DICKS.
Associated Pres. to The Evening TT,

A""ociated Press to The Evening Times.
Dayton. Ohio, Sept. 13.-The repub-
licans of Ohio today held one of the
hottest conventions in the history of
the party In this state for an '.:off
year." And still more remarkable was
1t for the fact that the contest. was
not over the naming of candidates for
the state offices for which the conven-
ton had been called. but over the Sc
lection of a chairman of the state ex-
ecuttve committee, involving the state
leadership of U. s. Senator Dick. The
question of endorsement of his wish
and that of Senator Foraker in the U.
s. senate, many of the republicans of
the state having taken the position
that In view of the fact that the sena.
tors had not entirely agreed with the
policy of President Roosevelt on ma
tional legislation it would be incon-
sistent to give an endorsement of equal
force to both the president and the
two senator's. In winning a, victory
over Congressman Burton and Harry
M. Davenport on these two questions
Senator Dick retained his chieftainship
and prestige but on the other hand
the platform in which appeared the
merchant marine and some other
planks indicated that Mr. Burton had
not been idle in other directions, for
Cleveland leaders were clearly i'm
bedded in some OF the best parts of tn:
platform.
On two points, primary voting for
United States senators and tariff re-
vision. one of the Cleveland delegates
introduced as a minority report these
two planks apparently with the ap-
proval of Mr.: Burton. and the conven-
ton defeated both.
One little incident of the convent n
that almost escaped hctice came i'm.
met lately after Senate" Dick had v.rs-
GUIDED his speech tnankia, the cen
ventiOn for the vote lust taken in his
favor Senator Foraker had been &C.
c,'i wing seat just back of the CHAIR
man and he stepped to the front and
called Mr.. Burton in the front seat of
the Cleveland delegation to the edge
of the platform for talk. The con-
gresham came promptly and listened
quietly as the senator asked him to
smooth things over by moving to make
the Dick endorsement unanimous.
With wave of his hand in protest and
vigorous shake of the head Mr.. Bur-
ton replied: mot just now" and the
incident closed, both men returning to
their seats without many of the dele
gates having noticed the incident.

New Receiving Vault.

The ladies in charge of the work
of improvement at Memorial Park are
arranging for the building of vault
this fall, and work will be started, at
once, that the building may be COM
pleted before cold weather sets in.
The cost of this structure will be about
$4,000, and Mrs. Sprague, who has
charge of the collection of improve
ment funds. is sending out requests to
all lot owners to come forward with
the annual payments pledged, and
with invitations to those who have not
yet subscribed to do so. Those who
have visited the cemetery this sum-
mer have been struck with the vast
improvement that has been made in
the appearance of the grounds by the
work already done, and it is univer-
sally conceded that Memorial Park
does not look like the same place that
it has been in the past. All the work
done thus far has been paid for. and
that which is planned for this fall can
be paid for in like manner ii back SUBJ
scriptiOns are paid in.

SHORT BUT DECISIVE
CAMPAIGN IS
PLANNED
Republican County Central
Committee Held Important !
Session Last Night. :

The first meeting of the republican
| county central committee was held at
the court house last night. and while
there was political side attraction
which. because Of its rarity. was con-
siderable OF an attraction, a goodly
number of representative republicans
were gathered together. to plan for the
coming campaign. The members of
the committee present were: H. Ben
deke. chairman: James Larmour,
Theodore Holton. Anton Anderson, A.
A. Westeen, l.. D. Wyman. Max Gaulke
and albert A. Davis. proxy for Chas.
c. Alguire.
In the absence of Secretary Cow
ran. Albert a. Davis was elected as
temporary secretary. The following
executive committee was appointed:
H. Bendeke, C. C. Gowran, Theodore
Holton. A. A. Westeen and Max Gaulke,
The plans for the campaign were
thoroughly considered and the opin-
ion OF every one was that while it
would not do to lie down and let the
campaign run itself, there was no
danger whatever but that the entire
republican ticket of the county would
be elected by safe majorities. How
ever, it was decided to make record
run In the matter and for this reason
speaking campaign was decided upon
and the ablest orators to be secured
will be sent into the various districts
of the county to address the voters
upon the issues involved in the cam
paign. The work will not be under
taken for some time yet, as 1t is the
sense of the committee that the cam
paign should be short and decisive.
The intelligence of the voters of this
county is such that they do not have
to be told what the campaign means
to the tax payers more than once, for
when the facts are given them they
are competent to make their own de-
auctions.
These meetings will he thoroughly
advertised and will be enthusiastic and
In fact republican rallies wherever
they are held. The ticket will be sup
ported as ticket from top to bottom
and will command the respect Of every
voter of the county.
There will be meeting of the ex-
ecutive committee in the afternoon of
September 10, and in the evening of
that day the central committee will
hold a meeting, at which time there
Will be number of reports. from the
members and officers as to the work
to. be done. Everybody last night
seemed bent on rolling up the biggest
majority in the history of the county.
