the day Jumping to the close Of the
fight to make the connection plain
when the twelfth ballot had been duly
recorded and the tired delegates had
gone to bed. Wilson had in his total
column the identical 354 votes with
which he started tn. night.
The remainder of this story is the
tale Of a rapidly running fight lively

multi colored setting is touched with
the most brilliant light Of the individ-

BALTIMORE, June 29-Another
long. fruitless, griuing night has pass
ed into history and the big problem be-
fore the Democratic convention for SO
luton stiu is far from solved
Last night was strilingly unlike the
night before Much of the fatigue Of
the previous day had Tapped over The
excitement was depressed and more in
tensive every one was looking every
minute for the break that never came,
for the bursting of the bomb that
would settle for this year of grace, the
question Of Democratic ascendency or
downfall nationally.
Champ Clark Won.
BY the ancient rule of the game.
Champ Clark won the nomination last
night On moro than one ballot he re
ceived a clear majority Of the votes

ground all the way along, passed his
majority mark on the tenth ballot and
held IT on the eleventh and twelfth He
was away i'm the lead and many are
saying this morning that his gallant
fight vet VIII be awarded with the
crown If success. and that before the
Sabbath day Champ Clark win he made
the Democratic standard bearer for
1912.
Unquestionably, There is note of
depression and pessimism in the talk
Of dozens Of delegates this morning.

forebodes evil to the party. one dele

When one gets the fever to move to
a newer country-and most live folks
have this spell at some time in their
lives-it is good idea to rent rather
than sell the old home farm, go to the
new location and spend year. In
this interval one can get posted on
the freaks Of the weather and other
drawbacks and IL dissatisfied can re-
turn and begin life over again in the
old home. If one does not buy in the
new country he can consider the jaunt
as well earned vacation.

The writer is this season going to try
a plan for keeping the ants from run
ming up and down the trunks of his
apple trees, where they make it their
business to change the pasture places
of their dairy cows, the green aphids.
This will be moistening sawdust with
kerosene and packing some around the
trunk at the surface of the ground.
This, coupled with spraying the trees
with solution of black leaf, will serve
to make life somewhat miserable for
the louise pests.
