CAUGHT ON THE RUN
ABOUT TOWN
PEOPLE YOU KNOW AND SOME
OF THE THINGS THEY
DO AND SAY.

The action of the city council in ad-
journing last night to Thursday night
filled the only vacant
FULL date in the week and
WEEK. furnished some attrac-
ton for every day. The
democrats last night filled the opening
date of the week by running accord
ing to the dope sheet and placing the
favorite at the head of their ticket.
Realizing the futility of attempting to
secure an audience against the draw
ing power of the democratic conven-
ton, the aldermen wisely concluded to
wait until there would be no counter
attraction. Tonight at the Harnois
Paul Gilmore will have the boards,
even If his papier- mache counterfeit IL
not returned by the kidnapers. To-
morrow night the republicans will
perform in their original melodrama
How to Win, or Who Will Swat Pat
terson." Then will come the off night
in which the city council will get in
its work Friday night there will be
another good one at the Harnois, and
Saturday night will end the week in
the all-star performance which will
be given by the merchants Of Missoula
in their Incompatible act of giving the
choicest Easter bargains. the latest
goods at the lowest prices, The indi-
cations are that the later performances
will prove more satisfactory than last
nights curtain raiser. There was a
misfit in the democratic show, which
might have been entitled, "Oil and
Water-They Don't Mix"

Afflicted With Many Diseases, Man
 Dies at Last of old Age.
 New York Press.
 The marvellous staying power of the human frame was demonstrated prob ably as never before in an autops' performed in the morgue yesterday upon the body of Moses F'ult, Fl years old 6y c9r0le F PhysiSan tTniHs, sity. At the finish of the medical in vestigation pr. O'Hanlon said that In all the 5000 autopsies he had per formed in his medical career he ney CT had encountered anything ssas remoseas displayed in Fult's intestines. The mans kidneys had been practically nonexistent since his birth. the phy- sician said. and his heart. for at leas' fifteen years had been eaten away by a cancer so rare that pr. OHanlop looked through four surgical treatises before finding one with even brief mention of the disease. Fult also wa minus one arm. and yet with all theHS things his death was due to old age
 "It Is a source of amazement and complete mystery to me-" said the cor oner's physician. after turning in his report to Coroner Hamburger, how this old man could possibly have lived so long as he did. Congenital cysts Of the Kidneys, the tissue of which wa practically all destroyed. and which were five times their normal size were alone enough to have killed him several times over. Added to the ago nies he must have suffered on this score since his youth, Fult in the last fifteen years at least. after his left arm was removed. had been suffering from the constant gnawing of cancer of the heart, a disease regarded as al most legendary by most surgeons"
 Moses Fult, Dr. O'Hanlon said. was an undersized man of weak physique and evident lack of nourishment
 The old man had no familyFn no home no regular occupation. He was poor ly clad. poorly fed. and his methods of earning a livelihood were precarious He got odd jobbs as porter or express man. and at times sold newspapers His earnings were barely sufficient to keep a roof over his old, disease-rack- ed body. Fult apparently was typ ical Park row lodging house inmate. constantly engaged in desperate struggle to keep out of the poorhouse

It was not until after the con. vention had organized at noon and summarily adjourned while a commit tee was dispatched for a nnal con- ference with the fusion forces in the nope of reaching an agreement upon candidates. that his name was present. ed.
 After the conference. Timothy L.. Woodruff. Chairman of the Republican State Committed. who presided. an- nounced that the committee appointed to confer with the fus.onists could re- port that the candidates nominated by the Republicans would receive the sup port of all independent forces, and with this declaration before the convention the candidates were chosen.
 Notwithstanding the Independence Leagues defiection and some minor friction among the fusionfsts, the Re- publican leaders say that the alliance in opposition to Tammany Is stili formidable.
 The fusion subcommittee adjourned tonight without formally endorsing the Republican ticket as selected. but In view of Mir. woodruffs announcement. its support is relied upon.
 Tn the platform adopted today the convention mercilessly criticised Tam many misruFe," and promised broad re- forms, a reduction of living expenses by eliminating the extravagances prac- ticed by the Mcclellan administration, and an honest and efficient municipal government.
 MT.
