NAME ROCSES THE
CONVENTION AND CAUSES A
DEMONSTRATION.

Chicago, June 17.-NO scene in
any convention in the history of
American politics ever rivaled, or
even approached, that enacted in the
Coliseum today, when Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, per-
manent chairman of the republican
ma ional convention, in paying a
glowing tribute to Theodore RoOse-
welt. said the president was the most
abused, yet the most popular man
in the United States A demonstra-
ton. spon aneous and wildly enthusi-
assic, followed in honor of the ma
tons chief executive. Its duration
in time was forty-five minutes.
First, there were cheers and yells;
then the delegates stood upon their
chairs, waved hats, flags and coats,
and the noise became a tumult. For
order, but then he gave up all SEM
blance of trying to stop the noise and
sat in his chair, evidently thinking
the crowd would soon exhaust its
strength. But he was mistaken. At
the end Of twenty-three minutes the
whole hall broke into the monoton
Gus repetition of the phrase, -Four
years more" continuing it like a
chant, amid great excitement. when
Cecil Lyon, of Texas, carried by en-
thusiasm, mounted the platform land
encouraged the delegates to continue
the demonstration, Lodge made an
effort to quiet the assemblage, but
his attempt only served to excite the
t0 nNifopnncnnSC
When the tumult had continued
for half an hour Miss Manda Neal,
representative of the Chicago Inter
Ocean, who occupied a seat in the
press gallery, threw a Teddy bear
onon the desk of one of the news
paper writer's, and the toy animal
was tossed among the delegates.
Pandemonium then broke loose. The
bear was thrown from one end of the
hall to another. causing the enthusi-
aSts to increase the ardor of their
cries. After this incident. the dele
gates quieted down .somsWhat, b
the galleries were just as demonstra-
tive. =;

! of his gavel the cheering was renew
cd = Despite he noise, Lodge went
ahead with his address. At first. he
could not be heard by the nearest
delegate, but in a few minutes the
convention subsidized. When his
words were audible he said that any
one who attempted to use the presi-
dents name as candidate was no
friend to Theodore Roosevelt. The
cheering again broke out, but the
seriousness Of the statement brought
the hall to quietness.
The convention was called to order
at 1920 o'clock this afternoon by
Temporary Chairman Julius Caesar
Burrows. The proceedings were
opened with prayer by Rev. William
o. Waters of Chicago. Then the re-
port of the committee on permanent
organization raining Senator Lodge
of Massachusetts as permanent chair
man was submitted and adopted una

Boys Roost on Telegraph Pole All
Night.


Spokane, June 17.-High school
students have played various pranks
on one another at commencement
time, but about the richest thing
that ever took place at the local
school was perpeIrated last week,
when Willard McInturff, son of the
well-known DR.. d. n. McInturff, now
of Bonners Ferry, Idaho, and John
Ritchie, son of W. A. Ritchie, of 119
Seventh avenue, were kept "treed"
up a telephone pole all night.
Not only were they compelled to
stay oJt of raaea of about six SEN
iOrs for fear of the ''roughhouse'
which awaited them at the foot of
the pole, but they were both handily
spanked when they did come down
in the morning.
We placed a big banner across
the street by the school about 1880
that night" said one of the members
of the class which will graduate
next February, and had gone down
town to get something to eat. When
we returned we found McInturff and
Ritchie up the pole taking our ban
ner down. They are both sOpho-
mores, and we determined to get
them
They tore our banner up while
up he pole, so we just camped there
all night They finally came down
about a. m. when people com
menced passing and giving them the
ha ha, and they both got real hot
spanking.

HARRY CARRIkER GETS A DUCK
ING,

It has just leaked out that Harry
Carriker had little experience last
Sunday afternoon which he didn't
tell anybody about. "A little bird"
however, bore a report to the World
office that the young man accidental
ly got a nice little ducking in the
Wenatchee river. While rowing in
company with certain members of the
fair sex, Harry saw some beautiful
flowers which he attempted to pluck,
To make the story short, he has been
taking considerable time off to dry
out his Sunday clothes. He didn't
get the flowers.

R. C. Walker will be one of the

at the democratic national conven-
tion. This will be the second nation
al convention of his party that Mr..
Walker has had the pleasure of at
tending. He was delegate from
the lst congressional district of Ken
tucky to the national convention held
in Chicago in 1892, when Grover
Cleveland was nominated for the
third time by his party for the pres
idency. Henry Watterson, editor of
the Louisville Courier-Journal, was
chairman Of the Kentucky delega-
ton at that convention, and that was
the last national convention that Mr..
Watterson ever attended, and he has
declared repeatedly that he will new
er attend another. Mr.. Walker will
be accompanied to Denver by Mrs
Walker. He is one of those who
have been fortunate in securing a
ticket for the sessions of the conven-
ton. He is anticipating meeting
many of his cid Kentucky friends in
Denver next week.
