In the prayer grotto at that place-a little stone hut at the foot of a cliff-was then a dama who had already been iu1- mured for three years. No one knew him, no one knew whence he came nor what his name was, and even were one to know his name 1t was forb dden to mention 1t before human beings. But they told me that the day he went into the grotto he was followed In most sol- emn procession by all the red monks Of the monastery. and when all the cere- monies prescribed in the holy books had been Zone through. the narrow entrance 1 to t grotto had cen closed up again.

 Once in Tibet we passed two ycung lamas from Khan. They did not walk like ordinary pilgrims, but literally measurer off the distance with their own bodies.

New York, Oct. 21.--On the eve of his last campaign visit to Chicago, where he will remain two days, Chair man Frank H. Hitchcock. of the Re- publican National Committee, expressed himself more confidently than he has at any time since he assumed the man" agement of the Republican campaign.
 He declared today that New York was absolutely safe for the national ticket and State ticket. and added that he was confident that California. ore" gon and Washington would give large Republican pluralities. He was satis- fled also, he said, with conditions In Colorado, Nebraska and Kansas. and he thought Montana was safely Re- publican, though he did not look for any overwhelming pluralities In that State.
 As to Missouri. Kentucky and Mary land. he regarded the last named State as surely Republican and in the other two he thought there was nghung chance.
 Former Governor Myron T. Herrick. of Ohio, visited Republican national headquarters today and gave the rea- sons for his assurance of the success of the Republican national and State tickets in his State. The ex-GovernoT admitted that in . few localities the party might lose Representatives ID Congress. If so. 1t would be because of a local fight, which would not in- fluence the State or national contest The Legislature he regarded as cer- tainIy Republican

SOUVENIR WHIPS PROVING
 NUISANCE OF 'sTHE CURVE''

It seemed impossible for the state fair to run through the week without the first drawback to the big enter tainment showed up.
 There are several hawkers selling whips to the people and the general slashing about makes walking along ''The Curve" unpleasant. 4ne way several girls were whipping and cut ting at strange men caused much comment. One man being struck with a whip attempted to take 1t away from the woman and 1t seemed a fight would follow. The police had to be called to quiet the rowdyism.
 Several minor fights took place and the evening was more or less naarred. The fair management will be asked today to put an end to the nuisance before further trouble occurs.
