KANSAS AFTER A BIG
ROW, CASTS ITS TWENTY
VOTES FOR GOV. WILSON

Here the noise became so great Bell
appealed to the delegates for a hear
ing. but they hooted and laughed al
him.
He read the resolution as adopted
by the Kansas State convention
amidst cries of We've heard IT," 1--WE
know what it saysl" He stopped read
ing after he had made the point that
they were instructed to- vote for CLARK
as long as there were not IA delegates
against Clark.
An attempt was made by one of tn,
Kansas delegates to interrupt with 3
question. but Bell refused to yield
amidst further disorder.
A Mitchell Palmer, of Pennsylvania
replied to Bell. He said that the
delegates upon the floor we're 10 as
one was absent. He declared that
while Kansas was entitled to twent,
votes, as there were only nineteer
present, 13 constituted two-thirds o.
the delegates. He cited precedents o.
the House of Representatives which
he said, proved his point.
Ben Johnson, of Kentucky, sided
with Bell and insisted that the Kansas
vote should be returned to Clark.
Chairman James declared that, un
der the rules Of the Sixty-SeconC
Congress, under which the convention
was working the two-thirds meant IL
the resolution could be only two
thirds of the delegates present.
1T is two-thirds of those voting tina
decides" ruled James, "and not two
thirds of those elected"
He directed that the twenty Kanss
votes be cast for Wilson admist mucl
applause.

Raises Ducks in Bathtub.

Boulder, Colo, Jan. 4.-To raise
prize-winning ducks, use the family
bath tub, is the advice of Boul-
der man, owns a number of Indian
der man owns a number of Indian
runner ducks, and he wanted them
to be in good condition for the Boul-
der poultry show. But the cold
weather came on and the ducks be-
gan to look shaggy.
Brown studied over the situation.
Finally he gathered his choicest
ducks and took them to the house,
where he announced to the family that
they would have to return to the tub
back of the kitchen range or use the
kitchen kettle for their baths, for
he needed the bathroom.
Filling the tub with water and
placing the ducks therein, he closed
the door of the bathroom, broad
smile wreathing his countenance. The
birds won first prize.

Passed Over Blease'S Veto.

Columbia, Jan. 10.-The feature
of the senate session to-day was the
passage over the governors veto OF
the measure providing for the in
vestigation of the winding up COM
mission and of the attorney general
by vote of Sc to 8, after an hour
of discussion, and the strong Ian
guage used by some of the senators
in denouncing the veto of the bill.
Almost every senator was in his seat
when the motion was called up and
the keenest interest was taken in
the different discussions by the va
rious senators. The action of the
governor in vetoing this measure af-
ter it had passed at his request was
characterized by senator Young, OF
Union, as an insult to the members
of the dispensary winding up COM
mission, and a slap in the face OF
every senator.
The veto of this bill, with the gov
ernor's reasons therefor was re-
ceived by the senate yesterday.

The Rev. H. NJ. Stansifer, pastor of
