another tlme-killing method

was another time-killing method OF
procedure.
Another strange feature Of the con-
yention from the American STANDPOINT
was that there were two other par tles
represented. in addition to the party
calling the convention. One of these
was the Liberal party. and the other
the National Democratic party. Botn
are small parties, organized Tor the
support Of a single principle. and tney
gravitated toward the larger party
which in principles most nearly met
their own.

Constitutional Progressive leaders dlo

nected. 1t was the Liberal party. aided
hv the Democrats, which brought De-
fore the convention the discussion OF
a plank in the platform requiring the
strict enforcement of the reform laws,
enacted by Benito Juarez, the patrlot
president, and with which he cnppeo
the wings of the Catholic church AS
the Catholic party had endorsed Ma
dero. the Progressive leaders wished
to sidetrack the question and to avoid
anv specific mention of the matter In
the platform. The Liberals brought
the matter before the convention and
finally succeeded in forcing the plank
through.
While Francisco 1. Madero ATTENDED
only that session of the convention In
which he thanked the delegates for MS
nomination and discussed the platform,
members of his family were in con-
slant attendance. His sister, Angela,
rarely missed a session, and Mr. Ma
sdero's wife was also present on sew
eral occasions.
Mrs. Madero Is Applauded.
On the day when Madero appeared
before the convention, one of the strik-
ing features was the fact that perhaps
as much enthusiasm was shown for
Mrs. Madero as for the candidate him
self. and the candidate seemed to find
more pleasure in the enthusiasm OF the
delegates for his wife than he hid in
their cheers for him as leader OF the
party, Mrs. Madero occupied an upper
box and blushed rosy red when one
delegate moved that the convention

SPORTS OF A Day

in taking the championship last sea-
son. Sheridan did not compete then.
Thomson's point tally was 394 points
behind Sheridan's worlds record.
Thomson, who recently was ordained
to the ministry, probably will not be
a competitor next season. Jack GILES,
the Vancouver policeman who was
beaten out only by 80 points for first
honors by Thomson, and who, though
he did not win the event, is considered
a better man than Thomson, surely
will be a competitor.
Gilles's score was greater than the
point score made by Tom Kelley, Ell
1ery Clarke, Fred Powers, Harry Gill,
Adam Gum Or any other former all
around champion. With the knowl-
edge he gained in the competition last
year, Giles will be a much improved
athlete next summer. Experts look
for him to give Sheridan a hard bat

tainly will have, to come perilously

The sympathy Of many in the vast
throng which turned out to see the
battle between the distance kings was
with HOln1er. 1t was known that the
American had staked everything on
his success in the big run. He came
money to pay his passage and furnish
him with the bare necessities for train

would have been practically penniless
and forced to work his way home on

STAkED ALL ON RACE.
Before leaving for Scotland Homer
weighed his chances of success. He
failed to see the possibility Of defeat
and so laid his plans accordingly.
With the little money he had won
during his cinder path career in Amer
lea he resolved to take the risk OF
being stranded in a foreign country.
He sailed for Scotland ON Dec. IL with
five pairs of Sparrow Robinson's run
ming shoes as his principal baggage.
Holmer ran beautiful race, not only
for his passage money. for that's what
success meant, bu, for the honor Of
beating the pick Of the foreign run

Holmer took the lead few miles on

this is not fair distribution. declar-
ing that Pennsylvania is. not entitled
