WHERE FAvoRITE SONS SUFFER

The oonfiding "favorite sons" who
have been expecting 10 stand some
show for the presidential nomination,
had rude awakening in Chicago Fri
day, when the Republican national
committee heard-or was expected 10
demonstrating delegations and de-
eide the contests on their merits.
Without even the formality of a roll
call the committee settled the. contests
from Alabama ana Arkansas in favor
of the Taft delegates and practically
announced its intention of giving Taft
the nomination in advance of the con-
vention.
Not only did the committee run the
road roller over Knox and Fairbanks
and Cannon, but it tamped the remains
down with a pile driver beyond all
hope of resuscitatiOn. After the cere-
monies the chief mourners for Knox,
Fairbanks and Cannon got together
and issued a formal statement protest
ing against the presence in the com
mittee of Messrs. Hitchcock, Slater
and Phelps. Mr.. Tafts managers. on
the ground that these gentlemen are
interested and so should be debarred
from passing on the credentials of del
egates in contest. Also the protestants
enunciated this doctrine:
Contests between Republicans
should be considered and decided by
those regularly and properly chosen
for that purpose. and by them only
when they can honestly consider the
merits of each case in a judicial frame
OF mind"
If that statement were not author
lied, il would be regarded as a deli
cate bit of humor. Imagine a bunch
OF federal ofice-hoIders. inspired by
Roosevelt and determined 10 capture
the convention for Taft, acting in "a
judicial frame Of mind" Picture a
Pennsylvania Republican or Hoo
sier follower of Fairbanks appealing
franticauy for fair play from an ad-
ministration committed And fancy,
If you can, the kind of judicial frame
of mind Roosevelts followers have
when they hear Uncle Joe Cannon's
agonizing protest against arbitrary
methods i'm politics,
one might as well believe colored
gentleman would rob hen roost in a
judicial mood as suppose the Taft
campaigners would annex delegates
only in a legal and equitable way.
What they want is votes. and they are
going 70 get them if it takes a jimmy
and a crowbar 10 make the job GER
tain.
It has been reasonably certain for
some time that Taft would get the
nomination without serious opposition,
though some of the other candidates
have been loath TO concede the fact.
After Fridays committee action the
only question remaining is as to the
size of Tafts majority. If present in
dications do not deceive he will te
named on the first ballot.

Little one, listen, where shadows fall
To the cIickety. clickety. clickety click;
There by the window figure in gray
Is weaving. and weaving, and weaving
And now by the pillow and there on the

Weaver. weaving the sDell nf sleep,
Softest slumber and siiXel CLEAN,
Under whose shadows the bright eyes
OF a dear little traveller drifting to

AS he sits by your side with his sossamer

And now unto sunderland valley you go
There by your pillow my curly head
Swiftly moving his shuttles sweep.
Gossamer films of fairlyland thread
Falling upon you in mists of sleep.
Little one. look, he is there on the wall.
Where the soft, sweet fingers of twilight

Gray in the shadow and brown in the
OF the fairy hour and the elfland musk,
Dancing. weaving and winding away
Where you lie all weary Of song and

Songs without sound on his lips in the

Drowsy and dreamy. to left and right
And you follow in dreams to the lanes

over the hills and away to the star
Yonder his wonderful shuttles of sleep

A couple of city men were playing golf
when they saw old gentleman look
ing at them wistfully. They asked him
TO join the game. which he did with alac-
rity. He was mild in speech and man
ner and played well. But once when
he had made a fOozle he calculated We
hemently the word;
''AssOuan!'
A few moments later, when he had
made another bad play, he repeated:
''Assouanr'
The fourth time he said this one OF his
new made friends said
Il do not want 10 be inquistive but
will you tell me why you say 'Assouan'
so often?"
We'll" said the old gentleman. "isn I
that the biggest dam in the wOrld?'
He was Presbyterian clergyman.

posture of group OF grafters in New
York state, who have been profiting
by the gullibility of spiritists and
others in that region. The New York
Tribune sums up and comments on the
results of the investigation as follows:
According to report. one of DR..
James Hyslop's assistants has sue
ceeded in exposing the brazen gang of
frauds who hold spiritualistic seanees
at Lily Dale, a camp near Buffalo. The
investigator, a professional magician
named Darlington, spent a fortnight in
this dale of dupes under an assumed
name and also under a thick disguise
of simple credulity. He found host
of famous clairvoyants and trance me-
diums getting rich quickly by playing
stale old tricks of legerdemain before
large audiences of respectable citizens.
who paid from 81 to s. for the privilege
of being gloriously humbugged. At a
slate-writing seance Mr.. Darlington
saw a famous washington medium
calmly unfold the messages, read them
and write the replies on a slate con-
cealed in his lap other distinguished
takers were caught using their own
hands and feet in manipulating magic
trumpets, spirit zithers, 'phospho-
resent writing and similar marvels.
Not the faintest trace of any genuine
clairvoyance or other psychicai mys-
terry could be detected in the entire
community To be made a complete
success, Mr.. Carrihgtons revelations
need only be turned over to the police
in the form Of afidavits and used as d
means of landing the swindlers in
Jail"
There is nothing surprising in the
disclosures. Similar developments
have occurred in many places. not TO
mention the Arnold Dickson frauds
uncovered in salt Lake a couple of
years ago by The Herald. The i'm
pOrtance of Mr. Carrington's work is
not so much in the unveiling of the
bogus mysteries of the spirit quacks
as in the demonstration it affords of
the purpose of the Society for Psychic
al Research TO eliminate the false in
professional spiritism. No matter
what ones belief may be as to psy-
chical phenomena, he does not wish to
be imposed on by the knavish men and
women who utilize a sentiment, prob
ably as old as man, to wiring hard
earned dollars from the credulous. Nor
does he wish to be so robbed. If this
society could investigate the spiritual
lists and other spirit workers in all the
cities of the country they would do the
public an inestimable service.

One of the most beautiful orna
ments seen on a church was
placed by French and Russell on
the new Christian church this
week a large globe resting in a
crescent made of nickle plated
copper, gilded with gold leaf.
When the idea was first consid-
cred by Rev. Hester, he intended
to have in large letters Christ
for the world" placed on the
globe, but learned the letters
could not be made large enough
to be seen any distance. Evan
gelist Stout donated the cost OF
of the material, while +. Z. Bryan
made the globe and crescent. The
people seem to be very much
pleased with the new design.
