developed rapidly as soon as delegates ar
rived.

field c. S. Dobbs of Atlanta, Ca and l.
H. Sawyer of st. Louis. For the next con-
ventlon three cities are working, Mil

lanta is announcing itself a candidate for
the 1912 convention and for this place quite
a number of other cities are also asplrants
Another man who will be presented to
the convention is I. w LeQuatte of Des
Moines. whom the Hawkeyes taink will
make an excellent vice president next year.
The two main contests will be between
Milwaukee and Denver and between Presi-
dent Dobbs and Mr.. Sawyer. AS between
the two cities the outlook at first glance
seems to favor Milwaukee although Dem

HyMES GOT A
BAD SCARE

Blood curdling yells, war whoops,
trembling of the house, together
with frightened men and women in
pajamas and fluffy night gowns,
made one of the most exciting times
OF the year in this city Wednesday
night OF this week
II was near the dead hour of mid
night. All was still in the city save
the occasional muttered oath of late
home-goer as he slipped on the ICY
streets. All other people were in the
land OF dreams and sleeping the sleep
OF the at peace with the world"
sort
Suddenly from room 2 in the Dou-
gan block came screams and yells
while light thud followed by a
heavier one, and the hall was filled
with a frightened. scrambling crowd
OF people who knew the building
was tumbling down upon them"
1t was Simon Hymes' room and his
white, scared face appeared at the
door and he asked fitting form in
white. Am ! still alive?" The af-
fair was soon explained and quiet
once more reigned. In speaking of the
affair, Mr.. Hymes said to the Post
Thursday: you see. was reading
good book. Ii was about robbers
binding and gagging the agent at a
railroad station. The robbers than
placed the agent in an upstairs room
and left him. They then secured the
big signal light and moved 1t down
the track TO a bridge, where they ex-
pected TO blow up the flyer which was
loaded with gold. The agent sue
ceeded in releasing himself and sig
nailed with a bicycle lamp to his
sweetheart. She knew something
was wrong and saw that the signal
light had been removed. Realizing
what was about to happen. the girl
secured rifle that she might shoot
out the light. She had nine shells.
She fired eight and missed, but on
the ninth shot she hit the light and
put 1t out. Just as she fired the
ninth shot. something exploded near

against the ceiling and came down
