seventh. After the usual opening ex-
ercises and the transaction of neces-
sary business, Gideon Peaslee gave an
interesting reading from the life of
Isaac 7. Hopper, giving several Incl
dents illustrating his strong sense of
humor and adherence to principle. On
his first visit to the New York SEN

ton, he sat as was his custom with
his hat on, when requested by an Off

thy duty for thee?'' The officer looked
embarrassed, and said, half smiling,
But how am to get you out?" Car
ry me out. to be sure" rejoined Friend
Hopper, Il see no other way" The
Hoffieer went and whispered to the
Speaker, who glanced at the noble
looking old gentleman, and advised
that he should be let alone.
Current events were given by Mary
j, Heritage. A biographical sketch of
Mariana w Chapman was read by Ed

as equal suffrage. prison reform, and
peace. at the same time neglecting no
home duty Her husband co-operated
with her work in every possible way
and their Ave children give every
promise of going on with the work
left in their hands. Mrs Chaplnan's i
charm of character was recognized by
all; those who agreed with her loved

NEW DEMOCRATIC LEADERS.

From the New York World

From the New York World.
There is no more hopeful sign for the
Democratic party than the character of the
new leaders who are coming to the front.
Thomas Marshall Of Indiana, Judson
Harmon OF Ohio and John A. johnson of
Minnesota were not elected to the COVER
norship Of their States by accident. They
are men Of proved character aud capacity.
Marshall stands in the front rank of his
profession in Indiana. Harmon is not only
a great lawyer but was one of the most
efficient Cabinet officers Of the second
Cleveland Administration johnson, three
times chosen GoYernor Of a Republican
State, stands approved on his record as a
man Of achievement.
There will be three new Democratic
United States Senators of equal ability,
force and character-two of them succeed
ing Republicans Governor Chamberlain
Of Oregon, who was selected for Senator in
the primaries, is probably she ablest man
in his State Charles j. Hughes leads the
Denver Bar. He will succeed Henry M.
Teller, who went over to the Democratic
party on the silver question, but has meyer
been Democrat in spirit or an aggressive
Democratic leader. John W. Kern, the
Democratic candidate for Vice President,
will probably succeed Senator Hemenway,
as Indiana has elected Democratic Legis-
lature He is lawyer Of recognized posi-
tion and wide knowledge Of public affairs.
All three of these men will be strong
and useful in fortifying the Democratic OPP
position in the United States Senate, and
will contribute greatly to the rehabilitation
sg the Democratic party throughout the
country.

AMARILLO'S BIG
FAIR is ASSURED
Booths Being AppOtiORed-- Active Preparations
In all Depatments--Fine Exhibits Assured
Hundreds Of Visitors

Amarillo's big fair and carnival
are now assured beyond the question
OF a doubt The one question now
prevailing, Is: Glow big will ANA
rillo's business men and citizens gem
orally, make the eyent?" II may be
made jus as big as the citizenship
wants II to be. Not as big as some
one, two, three or dozen men de-
sire, but as the whole city desires.
All may help In the movement. The
tair will be here, and will be sue
cess after a fashion, even over the
stumbling block of the non-progres-
sive citizen. But It's greatest pos
slbilities may only be achieved
through the cooperation Of the en-
tire populace, Those who desire to
get in the game, and help in this
great movement which has as its end
the advertising and the exhibition of
the various luxuriant products Of
this country, may do so by communi-
cation in person, by phone or letter
with the Chamber of Commerce,
Amarillo, Texas.
II is stated that today the APP
portionment Of booths was begun by
the management of the affair. The
booths and other facilities for housr
ing the various exhibits will be built
with but little delay and after the
most approved styles, This will be
an extensive movement. The exhib-
its will be varied, The premiums
will cover every class Of exhibit Ev-
cry train entering the city during
the entertainment, will bring hun
dreds of people. There will be Wis
itors here from every section OF the
Panhandle. 1t will be most exceI-
lent time to be on the grounds and
get acquainted with the people who
make up the citizenship of this entire
section OF the state. The importance
of this portion of the state will be
set forth in such manner as to sur
prise even those who consider them
selves old settlers. There will be
Offerings in such varied array that
he producers of the wealth from
the soil will be astonished. The
management of the fair and carnival
has extended an invitation to all
civic organizations and trades bodies
within a radius of a hundred and
fifty miles to be present. There will
be exhibits on the grounds sufficient
lily varied to entertain the greatest
range of tastes. No pains have been
spared upon the part Of the manage
ment to secure the best in the way

Of amusements.
Attention Is called to the fact that
there will be no admission charged
to the livestock, agricultural and
kindred exhibits. Every man, woman
and child is invited to come out just
as often as is desired and gaze upon
the possibilities OF the great Pam
handle, free and without price.
Attention Is again called to the
fact that this is not solely a fair
and carnival for Amarillo, but Is an
affair for the participation OF the
entire Panhandle II Is an event at
which the people are expected to
meet and get acquainted from the
various cities, towns and communi-
ties. Il is to be a home coming
week. It is to be a time in which
all OF the interests of this section
will be brought closer together.
This movement had its inception in
a desire to see a broader and grander
development of the plains country
OF Texas. There was no seliishness
predomnating in this movement.
There was no specially actuating de-
sire upon the part OF any one man
to further his own individual in
terests. It was upon a broad gem
eral plane that this function was
originally cast, and it has been fos-
tered in the same spirit and atmos-
phere to this present timeal
There is no doubt of the fact that
the fair will be made most excel
lent trade condition indAmdrIlyo,
The merchants of the city will wit
ness a great enhancement of bust
ness. This is but an incident of the
movement which is to crystalize in
week OF pleasure and profitable in
tercourse of the peoples OF the Pan
handle.
That Amarillo, as the hostess OF
the thousands who are to be here
from over the country, should be
arrayed in gala attire, there is not a
probability that the interests OF this
city, IL they realized the magnitude
Of this movement would fail to arise
TO the needs OF the situation. It Is
going to be a record breaker, his
tory maker, and a general all around
attraction worthy OF the city and the
entire section. This is the first an
nual fair and carnival, and will grow
with the city and the country.
Amarillo has been chosen as the
site for the annual fair, and must
prove herself worthy of the honor
thus bestowed.

Cincinnati

New York, Sept, 19.-lt is report
cd here this afternoon upon what
seemed to be sufficient authority,
although national headquarters is
dumb on the subject, that Senator
Foraker would be asked to withdraw
as one of the speakers at the meet
ing of the League of Republican
clubs at Cincinnati Tuesday.
Foraker was scheduled to speak
upon that occasion on the same plat
form with Taft.
1t was learned later this after
noon that no definite decision has
been reached as to extending any
such request to Foraker. John Hays
Hammond, who has charge of the
Republican club matter for the ma
tional committee, is on his way to
Cincinnati and it is thought that he
will have a talk with Senator For
aker on the subject.

Vallejo, Sal, Sept, 19.-In a gaso-
line fire in the navy yard yesterday
Theodore May, chief machlnlst, lost
his life and several men were In
jured. II Is now believed three
lives we're lost. Fred Martin, a boy,
and an Italian laborer, name un-
known, are missing, and It is thought
they persisted in the bay into which
they plunged when the flames sur
rounded the floating workshop con-
tanning nearly thirty men,

match thrown into the water ignited
a quantity of refuse gasoline floating
on the surface. The flames COM
lunicated to hundreds of gallons
of the fluid which had been pumped
out OF the tanks OF the submarine
boats Pike and Grampus which were
moored alongside the float.
OF more than score of men who
sprang from the float into the bay,
all were rescued except May, who
could not swim, and the possible ex-
oeption OF the other two who, It is
believed, disappeared beneath the
surface unob:erved.
Mays body was recovpred last
night.
The fire caused loss to the gov
eminent OF $4,000.
