On Double Obligations.

In he Fifth district where all Taft
men had been elected the commit
tee took Its first stand on the matter
Of double delegations. Four Taft men
mad been elected to cast the two votes
OF the district. The committee had
ruled that such districts would be con-
sidered contested. Today they voted
to seat two delegates and two alter
mates. allowing the eight men named
at the convention to choose those
who would take the places.
The seventh district presented an
other stiff fight After the evidence
had been heard and the vote called
for the Roosevelt lineup remained
intact, the vote being 50 10 10. And
so it went through the Eighth and
Tenth districts
The Taft delegate mill will put on
a night shift. On motion OF A. NJ.
Stevenson. OF Alabama, It was decided
to hold night sessions beginning to-
morrow. The committee made SLOW
progress today. 1t was confidentiaIly
expected that 1t would complete the
Kentucky contests and get louisa ma

lucky was completed, and the com
mittee had 10 put in an overtime bill
to finish it's task. Louisiana brings
up the old Lilly White" fight with

ing for seats. Following 1t comes

TRIES THREE TIMES
TO DIE; GIVES 1T UP

Horse Cave, KY, March Z. - After
three unsuccessful attempts to COM
NIT suicide by shooting himself
through the head, Richard Jones, a
20-year-old negro boy, gave it up in dis
gust, tied up his head and returned to
work. He said he wanted to know
what It would feel ike in another
world" In this speculative mood he
placed the muzzle of a small caliber
revolver TO his forehead and pulled the
trigger. The ball tore furrow through
the scalp and glanced off the skull.
He shot himself on the side Of the
head with like result, and then placed
the muzzle against his cheekbone. The
ball passed through both cheeks. He
quit in disgust.
