For five miles a COW was carried on the
fender Of a stanton car Of the Wilmington
CITY Railway last evening. It was taken
all the way from this city TO Stanton be-
fore it was dislodged by the motorman.
and then apparently was none the worse
for its long trip in the net on the front
end Of the car.
Apparently the motorman was not dis
turbed by his odd passenger on the fender
for he made no effort to get the COW out
of the net until Stanton was reached.
Hey. mister. there's a cow in your
fender" yelled lad as the car pissed
Fourth and Monroe streets. Il was the
car that left Fourth and Market streets
at 7.15 G. clock and everybody seemed puz-
zled as to how the animal got into the
fender in the city. Pedestrians Iaused to
view the odd sight but the motorman
and conductor and passengers apparently
we're oblivious Of the public curiosity.
Newport Took Notice.
At Newport some residents spotted the
COW in the net and yelled to the motor
man. but he didn't stop. In fact he made
no effort TO bulge the animal until STAN
ton was reached. when it was removed
from the fender. II was in as good shape
as when it got into the fender.

Of the convention.
The convention was given by young wo-

Miss Florence Allen and Miss Virginia

The milkmaids' convention was greatly
enjoyed by the residents OF Stanton and
vicinity. and many Of the prosperous
farmers OF that section had their eyes
opened by the superior knowledge OF the
COW voiced by the young women in the
convention"
Some OF tho delegates" made a hit
by hoping that "the next time we meet in
Stanton we may only have to pay two
fares from any part OF Wilmington in
stead OF three fares over the railway"
This was timely because Stanton folks
are agitating a decreased fare.
Following the entertainment everybody
WIS invited TO the Changers lodge room,

HEARS THIRD
Term TALK
Many Expressions OF Good
Will Come to the PreSi-

NOT YET READY TO
MAKE A STATEMENT
BY THE JOURNALS Special wire.

WASHINGTON, oct 24-If Presi-
dent Roosevelt had an idea before he
left for the Mississippi valley, that
upon his return he would make de-
claration reiterating his decision to de-
cline third term, he has apparently
changed mis- mind. While on his jour
ney he heard so much third term talk,
that it is small wonder if he has de-
cided to wait while before turning
down finally the proposed prize. At
every stop Of his trip-even between
stops when his private car was invaded
by senator's, congressman, mayors and
local reception committees-he has
heard the same song sun.
You cannot decline to run, Mr.. Pres
ident," they have assured him. I'VE
will nominate and elect you whether
you want the job or not"
When he was in Louisiana he was
told that he could carry the state if
he again headed the National ticket;
in Tennessee he was assured that vic
.ory for the Republican party could only
be won by his candidacy, and even in
Mississippi, the state of Jefferson
Davis, and the stronghold of John
Sharp williams he was told his past
performances and his promise to deepen
the Fathers of Waters had made him
so many friends that he could snatch
even the commonwealth from the DEM
ocratic candidate if he would run again.
Though he has accepted many of the
compliments with even more than the
proverbial grain OF salt, IL would not
be surprising if the grand chorus of
praise has had measurable effect upon
his mind. At any rate he has told sew
eral of his friends since returning TO
Washington that he is not prepared to
make a statement on the subject. He
will wait, il is said, unless he sees what
happens on the political field this fall
and winter and at the proper time he
may have something to say.
The president is still said to favor
Secretary Taft for the nomination.
