CLOTHES HANGING CONTEST.
Boston Woman Wins by One Kimono
IN Amusing Composition.

Boston Woman Wins by One kimono
In Amusing Composition.
A contest In the gentle act Of hang
ing out clothes was the unique feature
OF the outing OF the Massachusetts Ice
Dealers association at Bass Point,
Nahant, the other day, and, while some
OF the women blushed as certain gar
ments were hung to the breezes. the
event proved to be one OF the most
amusing that have marked any outdoor
gathering last summer. Miss Hazel
Nutting Of Boston won by a kImono.
The contest was between Miss Nut
ting and Mrs. Louise Howard Of Wa
tertown, Mass, who were captains Of
sides sitting across a table from each
other. Under the chair OF each was a
package, and the combined packages
on each side contained everything from
drop stitch stockings to outside knit
sweater, and all were given away later
as prizes to the ladies present. The
garments In packages had to be taken
from bundles fastened beneath chairs.
unfastened and passed along to the
captains, who hustled them on to the
lines.
A crowd OF about 400 looked on as
the two captains worked neck and
neck. Mrs. Howard got away slightly
In advance and led by one stocking.
MISS Nutting caught up to her on cor
sets, gained steadily in petticoats and
skirts and hung out her last article, a
Chinese kimono, ten seconds ahead.
The women on each side tRen drew
numbered slips for their pick from
the line. Silk stockings and a white
sweater were the first to be chosen.
The ladies to draw the higher numbers
had only a meager assortment OF lin
gerte to select from, and none seemed
very anxious to take a chance at 1t.
There was also an Ice cutting con-
test by women. Blocks OF ice weigh
Ing from fifty 10 seventy pounds were
placed on a long table, and they tried
to chop ten pound piece. Nearly 100
women took part, and Miss Emma A.
Curtis o. Jamaica Plain won first prize.

been seriously injured.

ing room. was put out after slight

FOR FIRST Time
DURING CONTEST
EVANS FORCES TAKE THE SEN
ENTR DISTRICT FROM THE
sRcWNLoW COLUMN.
CARRY ALL COUNTIES BUT ONE
Rivers And Gregory Will Be The
Delegates to National
Convention.

For the first time since the factional
struggles within the Republican parry
between Brownlow and Evans began
some twelve years ago, the Seventh
Congressional district has passed from
the control Of the First District Con-
gressman to his traditional enemy
from Chattanooga. In the conven-
tions which we're held Saturday
throughout the counties of this dis
trict the Evans men were uniformly
successful. Williamson, Giles, Law
renee. Dickson. Wayne, and Hum
phreys all went into the column OF
the Hale Sanders-Eyans clan.
Maury is the only county of the dis
trict that remained true to its ancient
moorings. and the effect of Brown
low victory is this county wos lost by
bolt from the Evans element and It
is generally predicted and believed
that the district and state conventions
will seat the Evans delegations, thus
making the district unanimous for the
former pension commissioner. The
Brownlow men mustered a ma
iority here. but majorities US
ually count for little with par
tisans committees and 1t is
not believed that the credentials COM
mittees at Nashville and Dickson will
hesitate to reward the Evans forces in
this county by seating them.
The result of the conventions on
Saturday insures the election of E. l..
Gregory, OF Maury county, and Flour
nov Rivers. of Giles county, as dele
gates from this district to the National
| convention. They will be elected at
the district convention to be held at
Dickson on March q. 1t is absolutely
certain that they will be instructed TO
vote for Taft first, last and all the
time.
The Dickson convention viii also
elect M. Richardson, of Lawrence ana
R. A. Haggard, of Wayne, as members
of the Republican State committee
from this district, This Will be the
first time that Brownlow men have
been elected from this district on the
state Committee. In the great con-
vention of two years ago when the
cohorts of Evans endorsed the hith-
erto invincible clans of Brownlow, the
Seventh was one of the three dis
tricts that stood by the erstwniie
easy boss"
Chairman Newell Sanders, OF the
Republican State Committee, and one
of the leaders of the Evans faction
predicts that nine of the ten d1stricts
will be controlled by the Evans crowd
These districts will instruct tnelr
eighteen delegates to the Nationai
convention for Taft and in addition
the four from the State at large VIII
be so instructed, giving Taft twenty
two of the twenty-four delegates from
Tennessee.
