CONVENTION NOTES.

Secretary of War William II. Taft
was nominated for the presidency on
the first ballot in the Republican con-
vention at Chicago, receiving foZ
votes. Then, amid scenes of wild en-
tthusiasm, he was made the unanimous
choice of the convention. The major
ity report of tho platform committee
was adopted after a debate. For sec
ond place on the ticket Sherman OF
New York moved prominently to the
fore.
Representative James s. Sherman
was nominated for vice-president on
the first ballot by the Republican ma
tional convention. The convention
then adjourned and subcommittee
of the national committee went to Gin.
cinnati to consult Mr.. Taft as to his
choice for national chairman.
For As minutes the delegates and
spectators in the Republican national
convention wildly cheered for Presi-
dent Roosevelt The vast throng in
the Coliseum was crazy with enthusi-
asm and some people feared that the
threatened Roosevelt stampede was
about to take place. The demonstra-
ton was started by Senator Lodges
speech as permanent chairman. The
credentials committee reported, seat
ing all the Taft delegates, and the con-
vention voted down the proposition to
reduce the representation Of southern
states in future conventions.
At an all night session Of the ere
dentials committee of the Republican
national convention ITO contests
brought by the "allies" were consid-
cred, the decisions being in favor OF
the Taft adherents. A subcommittee
of the resolutions committee labored
over the platform, modifying many OF
the planks. Gov. Cummins of Iowa
became the leading candidate for the
vice-presidential nomination, with
Fairbanks close second.

HOUND ON A LONG CHASE.
Followed a Fox for Five Days and
Nights Over Cape Cod Sands.

Following close on the heels of
big gray fox, running for five days and
nights, covering distance of prob
ably 200 miles through the woods and
along the sandy shores of Cape Cod,
only to have the fox escape by wear
ing him out, is the record of hound
four years old, one of three valuable
dogs that a party of hunters recently
took with them to hunt foxes in the
woods at Wellneet.
The dog chased the fox, or perhaps
several foxes-for IL may have been
switched off from one to another in
its travels-and did not show up after
starting the fox. After waiting for
hours for the dog to return the hunt
ers went back to the village, expect
ing the dog would give up the chase.
Night came on and they became
alarmed, fearing the dog had been
lost
A local gunner who accompanied
the fox hunters into the woods said he
would find the dog and ship him homo
the next day. Inquiries were made
through the villages, but no one had
seen the dog and 1t appeared as II he
must have been drowned in crossing
the swamps on the thin ice. At the
end of five days dog was seen fol-
lowing a big gray fox through the
village of East Wareham.
The man who saw the fox as Il
limped through his back yard rushed
into the house for his gun. As he
came out he saw hound limping
along and vainly trying to bark; the
fox had disappeared and the dog,
which could hardly stand, dropped in
its tracks nearly dead from exhaus-
ton. The man gave the dog food and
drink in small quantities and in a few
days 1t seemed TO be all right. On the
collar was tho name of the owner, to
whom the nan wrote, and in a few
days he came after it. 1t was then
learned that the dog started the fox
in Wellfieet and for five days and
nights had been chasing.
He had been seen chasing the fox
at Ellisville, on the shores of Cape
Cod bay, and near White Island in the
cranberry district; he had crossed the
harbors and rivers and had given up
when nearly dead in East Wareham,
60 miles from where the hunt was
started. 1t was said, THE dog was a
mere skeleton and the fox seemed as
If he had been running for a month"
There are instances on Cape Cod
where dogs have followed foxes for
days at time, but none of the old
gunners remembers any such perform
ance as this one.-Forest and Stream

shows feeble muscular energy and

New York, Nov. 4.-William How
ard Taft of Ohio. the Republican
nominee, was elected the twenty
seventh president Of the United
States and, James Schoolcraft Sher-
nan of New York was chosen vice
president. This was one of the most
remarkable political campaigns in
the history of the Republican party.
William Jennings Bryan of Nebras-
ka, the Democratic candidate, went
down to his third defeat in his lifes
ambition to occupy the White House.
The returns today give Taft at
least 29S electoral votes and the re-
turns from the West are growing
stronger for Taft and may justify the
claims of Hitchcock, made before the
eventful day. One of the results sur
Iassing the most sanguine hopes of
most Republicans, was Taft's carry
ing Greater New York by 1854.
Els plurality in Greater New York
will be considerably greater than
Roosevelt's plurality in 1904.
Gov. Hughes was reelected by a
plurality estimated today at $4,000
over Chanler, and while Greater New
York gave Taft plurality Of 1854,
It gave Chanler margin of 56,S42.
The Republicans retain both houses
in congress.
