Since the disclosures of progressive
strength in the California primaries
the Taft leaders have taken renewed
courage and will pursue vigorous
campaign under the belief that the
electoral vote of the state will he
found in the Taft column when the
votes are cast in November. The full
state vote on congressman shows
that the progressives were not able
to get majority of the republicans
of the state on the national issues
raised in the primary campaign, and
by a vigorous driving home of the
national issues the republicans hope
to redeem the state from progressive
control.

Cicago, June 2O.--Unexpect- edly the Roosevelt delegates on the. credentials committee ap- peared for work this morning ex- cept Flynn, who has resigned, and his place was taken by one of his lieutenants. The rumor has started that Roosevelt has re- leased his delegates. Governor Hadley has been in conference with his chief for an hour.

Chicago, June 2O.--It is not the belief here that the threat ened boltcrs sufficiently repre- seht their states as to carry them into a bolt on election day. All is confusion in. the Roosevelt camp, the leaders being appar- ently unable to agree upon any course to pursue, although loy- al to their chief.
 The ultimate end of the minor ity is an interesting theme of speculation. That Roosevelt has no chances of the nomination from the hands of the convention is admitted by all, including the many of his own supporters, who this evening are prepared to ad- init that there is barely chance even of defeating Taft.

action of his chief is the signal for a bolt and that he and others will leave the convention today. Governor Hiram Johnson, of Cal ifornia, says, We are prepared for the birth of new Republi- can party, which will have for it's first standard bearer Theodore Roosevelt"
 Every indication points to the disruption of the Republican party. while no concessions will be made to tiie+Roosevelt wing, the Taft men realize the precar- iOus position in which the party is being placed, but seemingly prefer defeat at the polls than a chance of victory by compromise.
 The committee on rules and order of business adjourned at midnight and decided not to change the officers of the tenn pOrary organization.

 PALAT|AL STEAMER
Now Under Construction in the East--A Modern Vessel in
 Every Respect

The New York Shipbuilding company, of Camden, N. J., has been awarded the contract for building the first two St,2OO,- unO ii0-foot passenger steam ships for the Pacific Coast Steam ship company service on this coast. The same company built the liners President and Cover nor, and the new vessel, with her sister ship to be constructed lat er will be improvements on the two big vessels now plying be- tween Seattle and California ports. Pacific coast shipbuilders entered bids but could not com- pete with the Camden firm for the big job.
 No name has yet been selected for the new liner. She will be 40 feet 6 inches over all, with beam of 53 feet and a load draft of 24 feet. Thedisplacement will be 10000 tons, and a speed of 2i 1-2 knots is called for, the twin-screw engines to develop 7,- 900 horsepower. Her keel will Dc laid at once, and she will be ready for service a year from this summer. Her sister ship will be started in the near future, so that both vessels will be ready for the Pacific coast service by the open ing of the 1915 exposition in San Francisco.
 Slightly larger and faster than the President and Governor, the new vessel will be as great an improvement over the present liners, as the President and Gov ernOr were over the vessels which have preceded them in the coast wise service. The new craft will cost approximately Si,2OO,OOO each, and the interior finish throughout will be the finest, while the general construction will meet the requirements of the American Bureau of Shipping for it's highest class "A i" for 20 years.
 The plans call for vessels with four complete steel decks and there will be accommodation for 100 frst-class passengers, 100 secOnd-class and 100 third-class. IL is planned to make the new vessels compare favorably in ev- nry pncnapf yrith fho GpncI lin ,pS on the Atlantic coast.

A PRIVATE TIP
 ID VALDEZ GIRLS Don't Kiss the Fellow With Mustache, for He's Full

The girl had iu act as the 'kiSSr" for a cnnSiIrrat ion, the men did tn" kissing. but the academy refused tO state whether they allowed them selves to be paid for the act.
 The professor in charge of the experiments selected two absu- lutcly healthy men and an equal ly healthy young lady. The lat ter allowed herself to be locked up in his studio with all the lat est magazines and picture hooks. while he conducted the kiSSerS over the experiment line.
 First he took them on a long walk, then through several mu- seums and department stores. Finally the trio mounted a we'll filled bus, where they elbowed market women. factory girls and wOrkmen.
 Arriving at his house, tn" pro lessor made sure that the "kiSS- ee" had seen no one during his absence. That established, hr treated the 'kissec's" lips anti septically, then asked the young man 10 up and kiss her right smartly" on those wrll-washed lips. The kiss was timed to last 10 seconds, whercupon the learn ed man passed sterilized brush over the young iady'< lips and inserted the brush in Japanese gelatine, which was at once her medically sealed.
 Then followed a face wash and massage for the young lady, an tiSeptically, of course. Then sterilization of her ruby lips.
 Now, it was the mustached mans turn, but the professor watched him closely, stop watch in hand. When the iO-second limit was reached the couple was cruelty torn apart and the ster- ilized brush put into action as above.
 Four days the brushed-oT drli- cateSscn remained in the Gcla- tine, then a thorough eXamina- tiOn was made by some well known micrObc fancicr.
 IL was shown that tho kiss by the shaven man had left only a few harmless microbes on the girls lips, while the kiss of tho mustached man impregnatcd them with various disease bacilli, tubercular and otherwise.
