Observation-Disclosures

Most of the so-called absent-mind-

his class not long ago, sis due to the
fact that when the mind gets to run
ming along a certain channel it is diff
ficult for it to turn aside to take in
something that is outside the course
along which it is travelling The other
night, for instance, my wife and 1
were planning to go to the theater.
When l came downstairs about 1880
o'clock the tie that l had on did not
meet with my wifes approval and she
asked me to go upstairs and change it.
/ went, while she waited below, and to
her surprise did not return. Finally,
thinking that something must have
happened, she went upstairs to my
room. What do you suppose she
found? Simply that when 1 had start
ed to take off my tie my mind had been
set in certain train which it fol-
lowed, and there I was with my paja-
mas on, just climbing into bed"

TURNED THE POTATOES BLACK
The Sight Of Aluminium Ware Recalls
Old Timers Made of Iron.

Among the many gifts, beautiful or
useful, that this bridal couple received
was complete set of cooking uten-
sils Of aluminium.
DO you remember, Clarence" said
an older woman who had seen these
attractive pots and kettles in the
kitchen of the new brides home and
who was now describing them to her
husband, do you remember how black
the potatoes were the first dinner
cooked?"
And Clarence did remember it, for
that extraordinary incident of the
black potatoes in that first dinner they
ate together in their new home after
they were married could not very we'll
escape his memory.
We'll, that" Mrs. Clarence went on,
was because they were cooked in a
new iron pot OF course I knew that
new iron pots ought to be secured and
cleaned before they were used, and
had scrubbed and secured that pot till
I was tired and got it just as clean as
could be, but still the potatoes were
black.
Next day asked our washerwoman
about that and she said that if l would
rub lard on the inside of it and then
scour it it would be all right, and 1
did that, and do you remember that
the next night the potatoes were not
half so black?"
And Clarence remembered that too,
and then Mrs. Clarence went on to
tell about the many other beautiful
things that this young married couple
had received besides those aluminium
pots and kettles, the sight of which had
called forth this recollection of her
own married life

sAMP, THE CHAMP, BITES DUST
King Of Bronx Zoo Monkey House
Knocked Out.

Samson turned his face to the wall
In the monkey house at the Bronx
zoo the other night and would not be
comforted, says the New York World.
Samson is a heavyweight mandril
and his black fist had put down for the
count every male occupant of the cage
There came to the cage three days
ago meek-faced monkey from China.
The other simians sized up his three
feet of stature, his well-muscled arms
and clearly knit legs and agreed that
he looked good to them, though he
was plainly in the lightweight class.
He said in answer to questions that
he was of the Rhosus family and that
his name was Lii Hung Chang. Samp-
ciliously:
when l was in the circus and took
boxing lessons, I know several
Rhosuses. They never went back to
China. They were nothing more than
mixed-ale fighters. I'm Samp, the
champ, and this is what l did to the
Rhosuses. Bingo."
Samp's right shot out, but instead of
landing on Lis jaw it found only
space. Ii had side-stepped with amaz-
ing ease. The chimpanzee could not
restrain an ill-timed guffaw which di-
verified Samp's attention from Lii.
There was nothing more doing in the
pugilistic line until the other day.
Eight rounds had been fought furious
ly when Lii tented with his left and
shot his right to Champs jaw. When
Champ woke up he was alone in a
corner whittier he had been dragged.

delegates and spectators who throng
the hotel Hobbies here in Denver this
convention week. He and his friends
are planning the campaign with special
reference to these conditions. They
VIII nave a radical platform and will
Guido the Republican platform in radi-
cahsm, quite as much because of the
demands of these Western farmers as
because of the demand Of laboring peo-
pie in the Eastern States, where there
is less hope of getting electoral votes.
Whatever speaking Mr.. Bryan does in
the campaign, the heft of it will be
done in these Western States. He
probably will decide to cross swords
with La Toilette and Cummins. if they
go out championing Taft and Sherman.
He will make it hot for them. because
he stands high in Western favor
Thus with this remarkable political
condition, almost right at the conven-
ton doors, the Democrats are trying
to surpass their Republican brethren
in shrewdness and in capacity for hold
ing a great and orderly convention that
will make a favorable popular impress
sion. The preliminaries have pro-
crossed favorably, quite as favorably
as did the preliminaries of the Chicago
convention. There has been no steam
roller working day and night for
week at Denver and thus far there has
been little show of i'll feeling among
Democratic partisans There has been
no standing around the hotel corridors,
as there was with Republicans at Chi
cago, and predicting that the opposite
political party was going to win. True,
there have been some jibes for Bryan
among the Democrats assembled, but
on the whole there has been a spirit
of hopefulness and of harmony, which
is attributable in some part to Bryan's
herculean efforts to bring all the fac
tions together. Some three days Of the
convention yet remain, however, and
that is time enough for a merry old
fight that would be reminiscent OF
Democratic traditions

WITH DEMOCRATS
IN CONVENTION
Walker Tells of Scenes and
the Big Denver
Gathering.
By Ernest g. Walker.

(Mail Special to the Advertiser.)
DENVER, July 5.-Great trainloads
of convention delegates and convention
spectators were snorting, dust-coyered,
into the city for fully five days before
the great Democratic gathering was
called to order and the work of nam
ing presidential candidate was ac-
tually undertaken. The Pacific Coast
and intermountain people have swarm
ed up over the extensive plateau and
through the defiles in mu1titudes They
bound into the city enthusiastically
and refresh the scene by their inter-
est in everything that is transpiring.
No national convention has ever come
80 far West and the far Westerners
are making the most of it. Republi-
cans, men and women-for the women
vote at all elections in this State of
Colorado and in a number of States
adjoining-have been coming quite as
much as Democrats. They want to see
the spectacle of a great political con-
vention, even if they do not subscribe
10 the platform it adopts or support
the candidates it dominates.
The railroad journey generally has
been a short one for them-something
like a days journey, which is very
short according to the standards of
Western people. Their attitude and
bearing as they detrain has been
striking contrast to the Fasteners
who come in worn from living on trains
for two or three days, anxious to get
out of their ears the rumbling sounds
of ear wheels and out of their eyes
the panorama of prairies, stretching
with monotonous similarity from sky
line to sky line. The altitude is high
Denver, according to popular way
of putting it, is a mile above sea level.
The clear ozone seems to have an in
fiuence upon humans. All visitors step
a little livelier and apparently a little
easier, talk little more vivaciously
than IS their wont, and think little
more rapidly.
However, this does not promise to
speed the deliberations of the conven-
ton materially Three days are long
enough for any ordinary national con-
vention to transact all business in IN
orderly way. But Denver wants to
take four days and probably will have
its way, just as Chicago was able to
detain the Republican National Con-
vention in mid-June for an extra day,
that the hotelkeepers and the saloons
might extract an extra hundred thou
sand dollars or so from the visitors.
Such things always have been since
cities began to strive for the honor of
entertaining national conventions and
