Washington, d. c., July BY

Secretary of War Taft has issued
orders to the commanding general
of the Departn ent of Texas, at San
Antonio, to send a sufficient num-
Der of troops to Del Rio, El Paso
and other points in Texas, to aid the
civil authorities in preserving or

1t is hoped that the presence OF

any outbreak within United States
territory. and be of material assist

should cross the border. Del Rio is
directly opposite Las Nacas, MeXi-
co, where the principal disturbances
have occurred.

ANTI-BRYAN NIGHTMARE.
Democrats i'm Denver Think They
Have Nebraskan Beaten.

Denver, July Amy man on
the political ground here whose head
is on wrong can have lot of ex-
citement and without expenditure OF
money. There are few anti
Bryan delegates In town, and they
talk with confidence Of the surety
that the Nebraskan will be defeated.
They claim a majority of the Ma
tional Committee and say that an
unexpected turnover among the
delegates may be looked for. T. T.
Hudson OF Duluth and c. II. Will
liams of Yazoo City, Miss, are
among the National Committeeman
who assert there will be big sur
prise in the conventin.
Billups of Oklahoma, and Mack
of New York, listened and laughed; !;
Mack said
IT'S fairly hot in Denver and
those fellows ought to have a chance
to keep the hot air moving. They'll
have chill next week. There is
much discussion OF the proposed
anti-injunction plank. Men who
ought to know say 1t will not read
unlike this:
I'VE favor such a modification OF
the law relating to injunction as
Will, first, prevent the Issuing of d
writ in industrial disputes except
upon the notice to defendant and a
full hearing; second, permit trial
who issued the writ; third, allow a
jury to be summoned in all cases
where alleged contempt is commit
ted outside the presence OF the
court"

Light on Adam and Eve Wedding.

Kansas City, July 1.-The Kansas
City Court of Appeals has decided
that the first marriage in the
worlds history was d common law
contract-a mutual agreement be-
tween the principals. The Court
holds that present day common-law
marriages are likewise binding
The suit in question was for s4OO
brought by Ella Philips Davis
against r. w, Stuoffer, administra-
tor of her husbands estate. She as
serted that she was his common-law
wife.
The Court finding for her said:
THE marriage of Adam and Eve
was not, only without witnesses, but
so far as the records show they
marrie- themselves. He repeated
the contract and she acquiesced by
silence"

Chanlcr for Second Place.

Omaha, July bryan of Ne
braska and Ckanlcr of New York
will be the ticket nominated at Dem
yer, in the opinion of Norman T..
Mack, National Committeeman from
New York.
The nomination of Sherman by
the Republicans, make it advisable
for us to also choose New Yorker
for Vice President, and | think that
Lieut.-Governor Chanler, of our
State, will in all likelihood be nomi-
nated." said Mr.. Mack.
Former Gov. Douglas. of Massa-
chusetts, is also a figure, more so
tnan Sullivan, Johnson. Mitchell,
Gray or any of the other possibilities,
but Challer is the man for the
place. He is by far stronger man
than Sherman, and the Democrats
will ca ~ New York by 100000 ma
jority.
Bryan will, of course, be nomr-
mated, and, / think, by acclama-
tion. very much doubt if any 9TH
er name will be presented.

Cleveland Laid in Grave.

Princeton, July with the
words Earth to earth, ashes to
ashes, dust to dust" the body OF
Grover Cleveland, who twice had
been President of the United States,
was lowered into its grave last FRI
day in the Princeton cemetery, al
ready historic in the receiving Of
famous citizens. As men who had
made history under his leadership
and others, including President
Roosevelt, who are moulding the
destiny of the nation, stood with
bowed heads and listened, words
full of faith in the resurrection OF
the spirit were uttered by the Rev.
William r. Richards, pastor of the
Brick Presbyterian Church, Man
haitian. Then, with a brief bene-
diction, there ended the service, as
simple service, perhaps, as ever
attended the burial of so famous a
man. Throughout, not single
words in praise of the former Presi-
dent was offered, not a note Of
music was sounded, not a hymn
was sung.

Nebraskan Surprises Foes
by Willingness to Accept
the Judge for Mate.
ARE NOT IN SYMPATHY
Predicted That This Will BE the
Ticket Unless New York Decides
Quickly--Compulsory Arbitration
Plank May Put Anti-Injunction in
Background.

Denver, July William j. Bry-
that managers for the Nebraska
Presidential candidate say will be
nominated, unless lIew York quick
iy decides on a man for second place.
So sanguine are the ultra Bryan
men that the Delaware Judge will
be nominated that Colonel r. M.
Johnson, National Committeeman
from Texas, who loves sport as much
As Governor Hughes hates It, advised
all his friends to buy FOOLS on
Gray, for you cannot lose"
National Committeeman Norman
l. Mack thus summarized the situa-
tion. THE ticket probably
will be Bryan and Gray. unless New
York agrees upon candidate and
enters the fight"
The espousal of Mr.. Bryan and his
friends of the candidacy of Judge
Gray is regarded by the anti-Bry-
antics as hard to reconcile with the
radical position which the Nebras-
kan has. taken on the anti-injunc-
ton issue.
Judge Gray is known to be abso-
lutely out of sympathy with the
views Of Mr.. Bryan on this subject,
which promises to become one Of
the leading issues of the campaign.
Why Mr.. Bryan, therefore, should
wish Judge Gray as his running
mate, is something of a mystery.
Some of the Gray men, who are
hopeful of their candidates noml-
nation for the first place, have an
explanation of Mr.. Bryan's apparent
inconsistency between measures and
men, which is, at least, interesting.
"The purpose of Mr.. Bryan" said
one of the Gray boomers
is clear to one who thinks little
about the situation. Mr.. Bryan has
no real expectation that any radical
lnti-injunction plank will be adopt
I'd by the convention.
IF Gray gets second place on the
ticket, and an injunction plank sat
sfactory to corporations is insert
ed, the conservatives, Mr.. Bryan
Ggures, will have reason to be
lleased with the outcome of the
convention. And at the same time
Ar. Bryan also figures, he will be
sble to make a strong appeal to the
abor element by reason of his per-
>onal advocacy of the legislation
WHICH they asked"

Letter to Eugene Rowell, Bambers, sc

Dear Sir: We shall feel obliged if
you write US how you came-out on your
first few jobs Devoe, as to gallons ex-
pected and used.
Take Job A. You made your price,
expecting to use Is gallons Devoe, and
used Is. Job B. You expected to use
Is and used 10. And tell US what paint
YOU had used before. Of course, you
Judge Devoe by what you have used be-
fore.
Here's how a few came-out.
NJ A Thomas, painter, Lynchburg, Va,
writes: My first job with Devoe, es-
timated 81 gallons; it took Is. Since
then have used nothing else:
Mayor w w Carroll, Monticello,
Florida, writes: Painter estimated 35
gallons for my house; took 20 gallons
Devoe.
Gilmore & Davis Co, contractors and
painters, Tallahassee, Florida, say 2
gallons Devoe spreads as, far as 3 of any
other paint they know, and covers bet
ter.
SA Billiard, painter, Sanford, Flor
ida, estimated so gallons for Odd Eel
lows and Masonic Halls; they took %
Devoe.
Jones & Rogers, Merkel, Texas, esti-
mated 10 gallons Devoe for Mr.. Pratt's
hause and bought 5 gallons for first
coat; it painted two coats.
You see how it goes. Even the best
painters can 'tguess little enough at first.
Yours truly
