question OF the nomination. and next
10 impossible TO determine Just what
delegates and delegations could be
depended upon to put through the
preliminary program. Some Of the
delegates instructed for Colonel Roose-
VT. II was known. would not support
all OF the moves made by his steering
committee on the convention floor,
while II appeared equally true that
many OF the delegates instructed for
Taft for President did not feel OBJ
ligated TO support his managers on
any other question. These facts
threw an element of doubt into the
situation and gave to every prospec-
tive Tie in the convention an un-
certainty unknown IN recent years in
the Republican party.
The Roosevelt plan tonight stood
fully revealed and but slightly
changed from the tentative program
approved last night. IL is to force a
roll call at the earliest opportunity
on the proposition TO purge the con-
vention Of the delegates "~fraudulently
seated by the national committee"
Failing in this, the Roosevelt people

ton OF the convention and then carry

Roosevelt plan to take the contests
10 the floor of the convention and
there TO demand a further hearing on
each case. This plan carried with IL
a threat to delay action in the ere.

vention for several days. throwing
the final sessions of the convention
into next week or later.

HER SUNNY SMILE MELTS
MEMS HEARTS AT MINERS

Led by Miss Gertie Demilt and
her dazzling smile. the Oriental Bur-
lesquers will make their headquar-
tiers at Miners Theatre for the rest
of the week. Miss Demilt was in
deed the hit of last nights perform
anoe. BY her clever singing and dane
ing she received encore after encore.
AT the Costumers'' and "Jaurez,
or War as 1t Is" were the titles of
the two short burlesques presented.
None of the chances the two burlet-
tas offered for funmaking were over
looked by the six comedians. Will
II. Ward was prominent among them,
with his droll character comicalities.
He was well seconded by Jack Demp-
sey, a light-footed dancer; Joe Bur-
ton, Charles Blake and Joe Dixon
were also good.
During the olio a sketch entitled
when the Devil Comes to Town"
was presented by viii H. Ward and
Company. AS it was something out
of the ordinary and. we'll acted, it
struck the fancy of the audience
from the start.
Others who appeared TO good adj
vantage during the olio were Grace
Harvard with a selection of catchy
songs; Joe Burton and Joe Dixon, in
a bit of nonsense entitled, THE
Horseman and His Friend" and last,
but not least, Miss Gertie Demilt, the
girl with the smile.
A real live horse, guaranteed sound
in wind and limb, will be one of the
many presents given away at the
Country Store tonight. Wrestling
bouts will be held after the perform
ance tomorrow night. Cabaret Thurs
day night and amateurs Friday.
