London.-The borough Of BexhiI.

Old Bexhill stands inland. The ma

1861 secured the place on the vacancy

MEAT SHIFTS DOG FROM BOY
Mad Shepherds Attack Stayed Just
Long Enough to Rescue Lad
From Possible Death.

Coatesville, Pa.-The fact that he
was delivering meat for his father
saved James, twelve-year son of
William Snyder, from the fangs of
mad shepherd dog which had start
ed to attack the lad.
When the dog sprang at young
Snyder the boy with quick wit seized
an order from his express wagon and
tossed it to the raving animal. This
diverted the dogs attention to the
load of meat but instead of eating
any he merely went into canine
hysteria over it.
Albert Flahardy. a clerk in Main
street store, saw the boys plight and
with a brick struck the dog in the
head, and Charles Dunleavy, con-
tractor, ended the animals life with
a pick. Before attacking the boy the
dog ran amuck and bit a number OF
other dogs

AS has always been the case in ma
tional political conventions, the bulk
of the work of the Progressive gath
ering was carried on in the commit
tees. The only semblance OF CON
flict of opinion on the floor was a
brief debate Is to whether an hours
recess should be taken. The point
was not material, but as one delegate
expressed it, eve just had to fight
about something to make regular
convention
There was sharp discussion in sew
eral committee meetings and no little
difficulty in agreeing upon the plat
form as finally adopted.
Colonel Roosevelt worked with the
subcommittee in charge of the plat
form until late Wednesday afternoon,
going over their work of the two pre-
vious days and nights and vigorously
helping to mould the draf. which at
last proved acceptable to him. The
platform did not take up the negro
question.

plover, one comes to the wonderful
ruin OF Pevensey castle, the ground
upon which It stands having a history
extending back for close upon 1000
years. 1t is pretty certain that the
walls which are of Roman construc-
ton, encompass the spot where stood
the city of Anderida. one of the nine
great fortresses which guarded the
southern shore.
Until the thirteenth century the sea
encroached so far inland that ships
rode at anchor beneath its walls. I'm
der the shadow of the castle is the old
Mint house, under whose roof Edward
VI. has slept. About five miles away,
on a clear day, can be seen the mellow
brick ruins of the castle of Hurstmon-
ceau, one of the finest specimens of
medieval brick ruins in England, and
dating from the reign of Henry vi.
Besides its advantageous proximity
to these historical spots Bexhill has
an extraordinary charm and individ-
uality of its own, quite unlike most
south coast seaside places.

For several hours during the after
noon the throng in the Coliseum had
listened to Z flow Of oratory in nomi-
which the dominant note expressed
was the belief that victory would
come to the new party IN November.
Raymond Robbins of Illinois pledged
100000 majority for the national
ticket in Illinois, and Clifford Pinchot
predicted a 100000 majority for Col.
Roosevelt and Gov Johnson in MS
home state of Pennsylvania. These
statements were cheercd to the ecno.
The party formally christened Itself
The Progressive Party" leaving out
the prefix National" by which it has
heretofore been known, but provision
was made for the recognition of real"
Progressives in any of the states by
whatever name they should be locally
designated because of state laws.
The convention adjourned with the
delegates singing the "DoXology' N
lusty voice During the three days it
was in session there was not a roll
call nor a ballot. The delegates asked
no such formalities, either in placing
their candidates in nomination or in
voting for them.
There was not . voice of opposition
either to Col. Roosevelt or Gov. John
son. The delay in nominating them
was due to the large number of sec

either adopt a platform substantially

The colonel said he hoped conditions
might so improve in the South that at
future Progressive conventions those
states might send as delegates ne
groes who would have the character
and standing of the negro delegates
from West Virginia, who, he asserted,
were in those respects the equal OF
their white associates.
The report of the credentials com
mittee, unanimously adopted, con.
tanned a resolution recognizing the
constitutional and inherent right Of
each and every state to determine the
qualifications and manner Of election
of its delegates to national conven-
tions."
This resolution was regarded as Civ
ing the Southern states the right to
choose delegates as they pleased. 1t
also was interpreted as not imposing
the direct primary system upon any of
the states.

Pueblo.-The issue placed before The
Democratic state assembly at Pueblo
by both speakers and candidates was
the reputation of corporate influence.
1t arose in connection with the seat
ing Of the regular Denver delegation
over the protest of the Arnold-Patter-
son faction and was perpetuated IS
an issue in the primaries by the with
drawal of Thomas lyman, warden of
the state penitentiary, from the race
for the assembly nomination for gov
ernor on the ground that the body had
contravened national progressive prin-
ciplcs.
All day the question was impressed
upon the gathering until at nearly 8
O'Clock, row came when the reg
ular Denver machine delegation vas
seated by a sweeping vote. Again the
subject was foremost at night with
Tynan's actions and as result, at a
quarter Of an hour after midnight the
body had not finished it's business, and
was forced to adjourn until morning.
O'Donnell's name was not placed be-
fore the assembly, but in the evening
he induced the body to take an action
which many believe to be a repudia-
ton of it's stand during the day
He presented resolution binding
all candidates nominated by the as
sembly to vote for an amendment Of
its primary law, which would do away
with the assembly feature. This was
passed, and it is felt by many to be
acqliescence by the body itself to the
charge that the assembly action does
not represent party sentiment.

REDS ARE GAINING HARD ON CHAMPS
Haskell Indians Make Good
Showing This Year.
Kennedy Will Probably Coach
Them Again.

| Lawrence, Kan, Dec. 4.-The Haskell
institute football eleven closed its sea-
son in ST. Louis Thanksgiving day with
a defeat the Christian Brothers col
I lege taking the long end of a to
| score. The team won six games this
season and lost four. The teams to
fall before Haskell were Baker uni
versity, William Jewell college second
team, ottawa university, Wentworth
Military academy, Kansas University
freshmen and Denver university. The
teams which beat the Redskins were
Kansas State Agricultural college, Tex
as university, College of Emporia and
Christian Brothers college. Although
the red men suffered four defeats, none
of them was by more than one touch
down A place kick by Artichoker
brought the Haskell team within four
points of tying the Emporia game,
while a place goal defeated the In
dams in st. Louis last Thursday. The
Indians scored a total of 1876 points
during the season, while their OPP
ponents were rolling up "a.
The past season was Coach Albert
r. Kennedy's second year with the red
men. Kennedy enjoys working with
the Indians, and will in all probabfli-
ty coach next year, but as yet nc
contract has been signed. Kennedy Is
practicing dentistry in Lawrence, and
his connection with Haskell allows him
to carry on his profession during the
football season as well as to be with
his family. His relations with the
Haskell athletic board are pleasant
and he will doubtless pilot the Indians
next year.
Leo Rogue, the speedy half has been
given a place on the All-KanSas team.
Rogue is a great ground gamer, fast
as a deer and as slippery as an eel.
He has perhaps gained more yards for
the team this past season than any
other two men. He doesn't know when
he is downed, with the result that in
carrying the ball he has often evaded
at least a half dozen would-be tack
lers before one finally nabs him.
'sBill' Mzhickteno left end, was
given a position on the second ALL
Kansas eleven this season. Mzhickteno
forward pass in the valley. Captain
Williams, right tackle, and John
Artichoker, end, show up in the third
An-Kansas team. Artichoker is per-
haps the best punter in the Missouri
valley. Nothing has been seen in
Lawrence this year, either at Haskell
or K. u, that can compare with
Artichoker's toeing. In the game
with the Kansas freshmen he punted,
when the Haskell goal was in danger,
for 65 yards. His kicks hardly ever
average less than As or so.
Capt. "BiI1' Williams is a hea1y
player, popular with the team, and a
young man of excellent habits. Under
his leadership the Haskell Indians have
become known wherever they have
played as a clean-cut, gentlemanly
set of fellows, both on and off the
field. Practically the whole Haskell
squad belong to the Young Mems
Christian association and take an ac-
tive interest in it.
