 PUBLICAN DELEGATES.

Endorsing Governor Curtis Gu1Aos IT,, as a Candidate For The Vice-Presidential N0mi- aatiOn.
 postor AnriI 1O-The four men who will head the Massachusetts delegation to the Republican National Convention will go to Chicago unpledged.
 These four delegates, selected at the State convention today are United States Senators Henry Cabot Lodge and w Murray Crane; ex-Secretary or the Navy, John D. Long and Sidney o' BiRney, a business man. The alter mates at large selected were Frank F. Dunbar. of Lowell: Winfield $. Schuster of Douglas: Ralph D. Gillett, of West field and James F. Shaw, of Mancnes- ter.
 The convention adopted resolutions endorsing Governor Curtis Guild, Jr.. as a candidate for the vice-Presidentiai nomination and advocating Wlse re- vision of the tariff.
 On the question of the Presidential candidacy of Secretary of War Will liam H. Taft, the platform held that the convention "recognized that ma- jority of the delegates to the conven- tion desired his nomination" but that 1t was uncertain whether a resolution of preference would be carried. and it's presentation would certainly lead to a contest which would be injurious to the welfare of the party"
 This last named plank. the adoption of which was the feature of the con vention. 1t was admitted by all the party leaders, was a compromise. It was submitted to the committee on resolutions this morning by the Taft League after an all night session. The fight on 1t may be regarded as be- ginning with the inception of the Taft movement in this State several months ago, and 1t became acute when Sem ator Crane. although not directly op- posing the candidacy of Secretary Taft declared in a public statement in Feb ruary that the delegation to Chicago should not be hampered by pledges The selection of the four leading del egates took but little time. There was A lively contest on the selection of four alternates. After Speaker John H. Cole of the Massachusetts House had pre- sented the names of four well-known men negro delegate nominated Charles M w Williams of Boston. an other negro. This nomination was fol- lowed immediately by that of Dr. Sam uel E. Courtney of Boston, also me- gro. Williams was charged by speak CTS with being a bitter antagonist of Secretary Taft and President Roosevelt, and Dr. Courtney was charged With having run for school committeeman on a Democratic ticket. The votes showed that Williams led Dr. Courtney, but that the convention desired neither. and the Cole ticket was selected

doctored there four months, the baby never getting any better. His hand and legs then had big sores on them and as for his sleeping, we could not think of it, the poor little fellow suf- fered so terribly. First tied his hands to tho crib to keep him from scratching, but when it got so bad 1 tied him in shawl or he would scratch himself all bloody. When he was seven months old we tried a set of the Cuticura Remedies. The first application of Cuticura let him sleep and rest well, in one week the sores were gone but 1t stayed red and sometimes it would itch so we used Cuticura for two months, then he had clear and white face. Now he is two years and seven months old and has never had eczema again. I hope this letter will help some who are suffer- ng from skin disease. Every mother who has a baby suffering with skin disease should just try Cuticura; there s nothing better. Mrs. Louis Beck, R. EDS, San Antonio, Tex, Apr. Is, 'O7."

JAKE SCHAEFER WINS
| LAST TOURNAMENT
Veteran BilIiardist Defeats Willie
Hoppe and Retains Title to
Close of Career.

Chicago, March 12.-Jake Schaefer
last night successfully defended his
title to the ISL billiard championship
in the last match game of his career,
winning from, Willie Hoppe at Orches-
ira hall by n score of 500 to 423. A
side bet of $1,000, in addition to the
worlds championship, was involved in
the match.
The game was an intensely exciting
affair, although 10th men fell far be
low the form exhibited by them in re
cent practice matches. The lead
changed frequently. and, in fact, al
one time during the evening victory
for Hoppe seemed certain. From his
18th inning on. however, his work was
far off color, and he did not seem
able to go ar anything resembling a
championship gait.
Hopes slump came toward the
close. of the engagement, while Schaef
er got better as the game progressed
although he Kept the large assemblage
OF spectators in suspense even after
Hoppe was hopelessly out of it.

Given $50 Performances in Season.
Madam Butterfly" was given 250 per-
formances in this country last year
and $50 more performances are sched-
uled for this season by the Savage
English grand opera company. Al
though the flowery Japanese opera has
proved sensational success in Eng
land, France, Germany, Austria and
Italy, it has been sung more times in
English than in any other language.
In commenting on this fact recently
the Musical Courier maintains that
this constitutes an unanswerable arglI-
ment in favor of the musical sense
and musical taste of America which
critics frequently delight in belittling.
In some respects Madam Butterfly
has been an epoch making opera in
America. Its New York run surpass-
ed all grand opera records for the num-
Der of consecutive performances. At

Do Not Crowd the Season.

The first warm days of spring bring
with them a desire to get out and
enjoy the sunshine. Children that
have been housed UP all winter are
brought out and you wonder where
they all came from. The heavy winter
clothing is thrown aside and many
shed their fannels. Then cold wave
comes and people say that grip is cpl,
demic. Colds at this season are even
more dangerous than in mid-winter, as
there is much more danger of pneu-
monia. Take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, however, and you will have
nothing to fear. 1t always cure, and
we have never known cold 10 re-
suit in pneumonia when it is. used. 1t
