Noel from all over the state gathered here yester- day afternoon for conference, and the organization of a Noel club of statewide proportions. There were about 200 in at tendance. all very enthusiastic in their belief that he will defeat the Hon. Earl Brewer for the governorship in the sec ond primary that Is to be run on August 22 Governor Robert Lowry was made chairman of the state committee, in spite of his protests that younger man should be named, but he was assured that the younger men would do the work under his direction.
 me meeting was very similar to thlt held the day previous by MT. Brewers s friends. only there was not so large a crowd present. nor was the enthusiasm of such boisterous character. The differ ence is that MT. Brewer had the young men-that is they largely predominated in the meeting. and the campaign they wage will be of a more strenuous nature on the whirlwind order In fact, MT. Brewer in his little speech. said: We must get busy and eat 'em alive" and that will be their battle cry.
 Before leaving Jackson MT. Brewer was asked what he thought about MT. Scott's contest and a recount. and replied: 1T don't know anything about it. All that l know Is that l have gotten the official returns from every county in the state of Mississippi, and it gives me several thousand more votes than MT.

Former Millionaire Now in Debt
 for Millions
WIFE NO 3 WANTS DIVORCE
Enormous Sums Lavished On Three Wives Are So Tied Up That He Cannot Get a Cent Out
 of the Tangle.

Philadelphia August 7-tspecial )--Dead broke and with debts of millions. J. O'Sul- livan Edward Addleks, former senator from Delaware, arch gas man, and former friend of Thomas W. Lawson. is facing divorce from his third matrimonial ven- ture
 This is itself would not worry MT. Ad- dicks, who Is now in the wilds of lower Maryland. but the irony of the situation Is that Mrs. Addicks No. 3 has about three quarters of a million dollars in stocks and bonds settled on her by her husband in period of infatuatIon and aSout s2Oo,o00 worth of jewels bought on the proceeds of a sale of AmalR-snated Copper on tip from Tom Lawson. Be- sides. she Is in possession of the home stead at Lynnewood. Del, which Is worth possibly $50,OoO more. None of this can Addicks touch.
 At the same time of the news of the estrangement with wife No3 the fact also is made pubic that wife No. has died and that the daughter of wife No. l Is her administratrix and heiress Wife No. died possessed of about s300, ,0O0 all of which Addioks gave her to be all lowed to marry wife No 3. He can't touch any of this either
 So there Is the curious spectacle of picturesque financier and ex-senator. once worth $20,o0,000 flat broke: wife No. rich with his money and about to sue him for divorce; wife No. dying rich also with his money, and leaving 1t all to his daughter by wife No. l.
 A1dirkS hN thing in American politics in regard to his daughter by wife No. l. It is part of the secret history of Delaware that when he controlled the legislature and shortly after he was married to the present Mrs Addlcks he had passed a special act dis lnheriting the first daughter and making the two children of wife No. 3, who was a widow, his hers-ai- Jaw
 Another thing not generally known is that Addicks first two wives were Sis tcrs. No. 1 was Florence Butcher and No. : Rosalie Butcher. daughters of old Washington Butcher, millionaire packer and associate of the Armours and Cud ahys in the early days. Wife No died and then the gas man married her sister
 It was about five years ago that Mrs AuulckS NO. began dlNOrce proceedings, naming the present Mrs. Addicks as CO., respondent. Frank K. Nipple. the suicide president of the Real Estate Trust com pany. who wrecked the concern, acted as go-between, and Addicks paid si5G.- 000 cash and much property to secure Mrs. Addicks No. 2s consent to with draw all charges and file new suit on the grounds of desertion. When this was accomplished he married Mrs. Addlclls No who had bapD Will son, wife of u former secretary of the Union league.

 Will Win Out.

Jackson. Miss, Angus 7-The dem- ocratic executive committee meets here tomorrow at noon for the purpose of can vassing the returns and declaring the result of the recent primary held in this state for United States senator and state offices

 The committee will meet in the senate chamber at F o'clock and representatives of both the senatorial candidates will be on hand as well as those of the three gubernatorial candida tes who received the highest vote.

OPERATORS STRIKE
 AT LOS ANGELES
TELEGRAPHERS DECLARE THEY WILL NOT RETURN UNTIL A DISCHARGED OPERATOR IS RE- INSTATED.

Los Angeles, Cal. August 7.--Follow- ing the refusal of Western Union tele- graph officials to reinstate a discharged operator today, nearly seventy mem bers of the Los Angeles local of the Commercial Telegrahpers of America walked out of the operating depart ment at 5:30 this afternoon. At 5:30 there were five men working at keys and a block away over fifty operators were holding meeting to decide upon future action. According to an unof- ficial statement by the striking em- ployes there Is absolutely no prospect of the men resuming work before to- morrow, and even then their return Is said to be more than problematical. The men declare their intention to make the reinstatement of the dis charged operator the issue.
 District Superintendent F. NJ, Lamb half an hour after the men had walked out. said to the correspondent of the Associated Press
 At 530 o'clock this afternoon the men walked out without previous notice. That is all I care to say at present. I have had no requests for negotiations and l cannot assume any connection between anything that has happened and the walk out of the men
 New York, August 7.-None of the officers of the Western Union could be seen tonight regarding today's strike a Los Angeles. Word was received here unofficially that the trouble fin tele- graph circles in San Francisco probably would be re-opened s. J.

 All Sorts of Rumors.
 For the past day or so there have been all sorts of rumors of destroyed ballots and lost ballot boxes but when traced down these reports have been found to be without foundation.
 It was said that a lot of the ballot boxes in Copiah, a county that gave Gov ernor Nardaman a majority of 251 over Congressman John Sharp Williams in tho senatorial conteet, had been burned, but the committee tonight certified that this was not so. and that every precintc ha been recounted and that every ballol was safe in the hands of the proper officials.
 Chairman Lomax of the state commit tee has been here for two days, and the other members of the committee will ar rive tonight. The meeting tomorrow will be sensational one, there being some predictions that trouble will arise in tho event that compromise measure is re- sorted to.
 Both Claim Election.
 Both candidates are claiming that a canvass of the vote will show their cleo tion-Vardaman by a bare majority, while Williams followers are claiming 1t by at least 1000.
 Mir Williams arrived in the city today but would make no statement other than that he was elected.
 Congressman F. J. Bowers of the coast district is also here in MT. Williams interest, as are also a number of his friends from Northern Mississippi, where Governor Vardaman received some of his largest majoriNes. and it is stated they have some very startling evidence in their possession concerning the Vardaman vote in that section which will be produced in the event the governor demands a recount
 The Nardaman men also claim irregu- laritles, and the indications are tlat to- morrow's meeting will be attended with sensational incidents.

HEART MEMORIES.
A Memorial Poem.

AS day by day time onward goes,
And in clearer light I see
Thy lovely life, thy memory grows
In sacred preciousness to me.
My dull heart failed oft to discern
The duty of thy faithful life
Within my home, nor could it learn,
lis worthy Till thou vert gone, dear
wife!
We fail to prize the loving smile
The little deeds of thoughtful care,
Loves tender ministries the while,
To give US joy or sorrow spare;
The tender greeting and cares
The interest in all that 3 ours.
When they no more our home life
bless,
Are like the fragrance Of sweet
flowers.
Our seltishness we oft deplere
And own neglect with sad regret,
That we priced not IN life the more
The love about our pathways set;
But hearts do never sorrow know
That they have been too kind and
fond
To those we've known and loved below
When they pass to the great beyond.
o, We who have your loved ones still
About you in homes sacred sphere,
Who daily deeds of kindness fill
Your life with joys not found else
where,
Slight not these ministries of love,
Nor .,hink them commonplace or
small,
OF thy heart memories they will prove
Some time the sweetest ones ofall
