GILLETT'S VISIT
AIDS DEMOCRATS
GOVERNORS TOUR MAKES
VOTES FOR BRYAN
Lincoln-Roosevelt Leaguers Gnash
Their Teeth at What They Term
Insult to Decent Element
of Party

Democrats of Southern California are
making many votes out of the tour OF
Gov. James N. Gillett.
Their only fear Is that the machine
ridden state committee of the Herrin
clique will cancel the southern dates
when it learns, perhaps too late, tnat
Gillett is the best card just now that
the Democrats could put forth.
The people down here have not for
gotten that Gillett was nominated at
dinner in Washington by Hartman a
year before the convention met at
Santa Cruz, where Ruef did the work.
They. have not forgotten the famous
fiashlight photograph of that dinner
showing Gillett's arm lovingly resting
on the shoulder of Abe Ruef.
To be told how to vote by state
nominee under such circumstances is,
to quote certain Lincoln Roosevelt Re-
publicans, adding insult to injury"
Meantime the Democratic committee
men are chuckling, but many of the
Republicans are swearing under their
breath.
Up In San Luis Obispo the local COM
mittee fatty refused to invite Gillett,
knowing the effect his presence would
have. AS result of the temerity of
that handful OF men, the state machine
is threatening to remove one of the
state institutions from that city, as a
punishment for the slight to Gillett.
Los Angeles Republicans, however.
so far have not gone on record as DIS
couraging the presence of Herrin' S
man, and he will be in Long Beach
Monday, preliminary to his visit to Los
Angeles Friday, October %.

FOOTBALL GAME
ENDS IN FIGHT
HARVARD CADETS CLASH WITH
HOOVER STREET ELEVEN
Thought of End Runs and Field Goals
Forgotten While Opposing Play
Z ers Strive for Knockout
Blows

Fun turned into fighting and football
into fisticuffs was the climax of I,
game between the Harvard military
eleven and the Hoover street school
team on the gridiron of the Sixteenth
street institution yesterday afternoon
The respective rooters stood up for
their teams with well placed kicks and
better aimed blows, while all thought
of end runs and field goals was tenn
porarily driven out of their minds, and
it appeared likely that it would be
necessary to call out the Harvard bat
TALON as militia pro tenn. to prevent a
small riot.
Clothes suffered in contact with barb
wire fences, and gathered a supply of
west end real estate that will cause
them to be sent to the dye works; while
the profanity that made the air a dark
indigo would have made the lingo of a
parrot brought up on shipboard seem
like words of gospel, so the spectators
said.
After a comparatively commonplace
game with no scoring by either eleven
the Hoover streets took offense at the
officials decisions, having been penal
lied for unfair tackling, and started TO
vent their peevishness on the soldier
players, who refused to turn the other
cheek as per biblical injunction, but
sailed after their assailants with truly
martial spirit.
Seeing their cohorts in danger the
volunteers on the bleachers were called
to the front and Joined in the melee.
For several minutes the scene on the
Harvard campus resembled a sham
battle, with powder replaced by pro-
family and fists and feet substituted for
Krag-J Jordensens.
The combined efforts of Coaches
Boren and Spencer of Harvard We're re-
nIIi tn dnI,n M of oh
restore a truce between the conflicting
parties. AS soon as quiet was brought
about Boren ordered the grammar
school lads from the campus, and had
the buglers sound the call for martial
law to be put in force at the academy.
He also gave out the ultimatum that
for several days there would be no
more public school games on the Har-
ward campus until peace reigns once
more.

nav Associa,ed Press.I

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 14.-An
amusing incident of the Ruef bribery
trial today was the ruling by Judge
Lawlor that a rum omelet is not in
toxicating.
The question was placed before the
court by Juror Charles Roller, who Or
dered one at the st. Francis hotel this
morning, but was refused permission
to eat it by Bailiff Lynch, who, in the
strict discharge of his duty, having
been instructed not to allow the jurors
in his charge to indulge in liquor, de-
clared that he could make no excep-
tion in favor of a rum omelet.
The judge, however, decided other
wise, much to the satisfaction of the
epicurean juror.
Although a dozen vanireman were
examined during the day, none were

MUST KILL SHAH
TO WIN VICTORY
PERSIAN SOL0N LEADS PARTY
OF REVOLUTIONlSTS
Member of Tabrlz Parliament Declares
Death of Ruler and Victory of
Nationals Necessary for
Constitution
rBy Associated Pr4ss.1


ODESSA, Thursday, Oct THAT the
Persian people will never have con-
stitution unless the present shah is
killed and the National party becomes
victorious, is the opinion of an aged
and venerable member of the Tabriz
parliament named NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.,
who is at present In this city on his
way to Constantinople with small
party of his countrymen, for the pur-
pose of establishing in the Turkish cap
ital a permanent bureau of the revo-
lutionary party of Persia.
The Persians are nine In number, and
they will In tHR future direct the revo-
lutionary operations in Persia from
Constantlnople. They have been driven
out OF Tabriz and forced to seek shelter
on foreign soil
Government Losing
"The government forces are getting
the worst of 1t at Tabriz," continued
Iftikhan- Ul-Atebba. Our forces, the
Nationalists, are getting the upper
hand and the projected capture of Te-
heran and the assassination of the
shah are only a question of time.
II have full confidence in the future
of our revolutionary party. Our pres
ent aim is to win over the government
troops to our side. The shah's soldiers
already are discontented because they
are not getting their money. Our own
men are loyal and we'll paid.
I'VE have at present over 5000 good
fighters, together with six pieces of
artillery and sufficient ammunition and
provisions for some time to come.
I'VE have been almost uniformly sue
cessful In our recent engagements and
our men today are in high spirits over
the capture in Tabriz of sufficient
quantities of arms and ammunition to
equip an army of 10000. This war ma
terial was in a government arsenal
that fell into our hands,"

Sf1rUing Man Walks
Into Church; Falls
SenSeIeSS in Aisle

Attracted by the lights and song
young man nearly starved last night
entered the First Congregational church
during the midweek prayermeeting. TIE
man was neatly clad and was total
stranger.
As the final hymn was being sung the
man fell into the aisle. He was carried
to the church pariors where 1t was
found he had tainted from hunger, and
not stroke of apoplexy as first feared.
He soon revived.
Coming here recently from Kansas the
man had endeaVored to secure employ
ment. Tuesday morning he had spent
his last cent and his rent not being paid
he had been turned into the street.
Hungry and penniless he had tramped
all day Tuesday and when night came
on, afraid of being taken In as a hobo,
he walked about the greater part of the
night.
Yesterday he tried again to get work,
but failed, and last night, passing the
church he entered for little rest.
After he had related his story Mrs.
Larson, wife of the janitor, prepared
meal for him and DIR. Day, the pastor,
made arrangements for him to spend
the night at the Young Mems Christian
association building. Today efforts will
be made to secure work for him.

TAFT MEETS SERIES
OF BAD ACCIDENTS
Wreck Narrowly Missed for Second
Time in Two Days - Engine
Also Gets Stuck on
Grade

CADIZ, Ohio. Oct 14.-Judge TaftaS
special train was derailed again today.
The accident this time occurred on
spur running from the Pennsylvania
railway at Cadiz Junction to this place.
Two engines We're attached to the
train and the entire trucks of one of
the tenders left the tracks. The engine
held to the tracks, but the tender went
humping on the ties before it was
brought to a stop.
The train was climbing a steep grade
at the time. On one side of the track
there was an embankment of twenty
feet, and if the tender had plunged over
the result would have been serious.
One of the engines was disabled and
ran into Cadiz, distance of two miles.
where the crew got plates and screws.
A delay of about half an hour was
caused by the accident.
Before the tender left the track Mr..
Taft had another unpleasant expert
ence. His train got half way up the
Cadiz spur when the engine stuck on a
grade and had to back to Cadiz juno
ton and remain there half an hour.
He spoke before a large crowd in the
village.

:" ENRON. Neb., Oct. 14.-The sec
II ond days tour of Nebraska by
IL w / RrNa n WAS brought to a.


ond days tour of Nebraska by
- w. ]. Bryan was brought to q
close at this place tonight.
Twenty-Five speeches were made dur
Ing the day by the Democratic can
didate, varying in duration from ten
minutes to an. hour.
It was by far the most enthusiastic
day for Mr.. Bryan during the entire
trip, and the crowds which greeted
him at the various stations were CON-
posed largely of old friends of the
candidate, who had heard him many
times as a stump speaker during the
last twenty years, and before ne was
known as a presidential possibility.
Three congressional districts were
traversed today and in each one the
candidate made an appeal for the
Democratic nominee.
He invariably began his speech by
saying he was more interested in the
election of the candidate for congress
than the candidate himself.
"I would feel mighty lonesome in
Washington If both the senate and
house were against me-" he said, but
IL you will give me the house I am
sure we will make the senate feel
lonesome"
Discusses All Issues
At those places where it was pos
sible to do so, Mr.. Bryan discussed
all the issues, but in smaller places
he devoted his time to explaining and
defending the Democratic platform on
the guarantee of bank deposits.
At Columbus he told of the oppo-
sition to fire insurance when the sub
ject was first suggested and COM
pared the arguments presented then
with those now urged by the oppo-
nents of the banking guarantee plan
of the Democratic party.
Stops were made during the day at
North Bend. Schuyler, Columbus,
Clarks, Central City, Grand Island,
Wood River. Shelton, Gibbons, Kear-
ney, Kenesha, Hastings. Harvard.
Sharonville, Sutton, Grafton, Fair
videre, concluding with night meet
ing at Hebron. Most of the audiences
were composed of farmers, with a
sprinkling of laboring men at Grand
Island, Kearney and Hastings.
Aside from the guarantee of bank
deposits he spoke to the farmers in
regard to panics.
When Mr.. Bryan retired tonight at
Hebron he expressed himself as being
in the best physical condition of any
campaign.
He has so far spoken forty-seven
times in the last two days and is
apparently the least affected by the
hard work of any man in his party.
The state committee has assigned
eighteen speeches to him for tomor-
row, but in all probability the Tex
tras" will bring that number up to
twenty-five.

II ISBEE, Ariz., Oct. ia
X fire which broke out here at
~ 6 o'clock tonight in less than
three hours had done over $780,
900 damage.
The blaze started in the rear of
the Grand hotel, on upper Main
street. This large wooden struc-
ture burned like tinder and the
water pressure being low the fire
department could do nothing to
stay its progress.
Immediately adjoining the
Grand hotel was a large livery
stable, which took fire.
The heat was so intense by this
time that it was impossible to get
the fire apparatus near enough to
adjoining buildings to do effective
work.
Flames Sweep On
The flames swept on. without check.
extending both up and down Main
street on the east side for two blocks.
They finally stopped at the new
brick building of Frankenburger &c
Newman, which together with it's $45,-
600 stock of clothing, was completely
destroyed.
From this point the flames jumped
across Main street to the large grocery
store of j. B. Angus, which was also
completely destroyed.
| Advancing up Main street in the di-
rection of Castle Rock several busi-
ness houses We're wiped out, as was the
| splendid new building of the Elks,
which fell a prey to the flames and
was a total loss.
Fire Ascends Hill
Leaving the business section tho fire
swept over Clawson Hill, one of the
best residential parts of the city.
Here every dwelling was destroyed
with the exception of the Henkle and
Clawson residences.
When the flames threatened to wipe
out the entire city dynamite was re-
sorted to and buildings were blown
down in the path of the fire. This in
a large measure saved the entire town
from destruction.
The loss is estimated at $750,000, in
surance $150,000.
