Chicago, Oct. 10.--Delegations from
various doubtful Western and South

Chicago this week to meet National

Mr. Hitchcock has no money. Western

was estimated when the Harvester

about 100000 would be required for
the expenses of the Western campaign.

there is a large measure of confidence

not of very great length, Mr.. Wright
kept his machine comparatively close
to the ground with the exception of
that in which he carried Commandant
Bouttieaux. when he assembled to a
height of seventy-fve feet. Later Mr..
Wright was presented to the dowager
queen, who warmly congratulated him.

And never have it cross your mind

And on you shines the sun
Stick out your chest and say you are

But if your vagaries destroy
Instead of doing good,
And if your pure and high intent
Is never understood,
And if the people do not think
Destruction is cure,
Stick ont your chest and say you are
