Hand.

Colonel Bill Hamilton Plays His Lone
Hand.
Young Haldane's first duty was to
distribute manifestos to the newspa-
pers as far as his copies permitted.
Having discharged his errand, with
the n copy which he had reserved
for himself. he headed for homo, hit
ting up a tremendous pace as he
raced along the almost deserted
streets.
Before he had left to warn Gormly,
he had in a few hasty words given
his sister an inkling Of what was
about to happen. He knew that she
would be awaiting the result Of his
interview with an anxiety not to be
measured. In a short time, therefore,
he placed the confession in her
hands. With straining eyes and throb-
bling heart the girl devoured the type.

Her feelings were q singular com.

honor and dignity he had extricated
himself from the dilemma in which
the opposition had sought to plunge
him, the magnificent audacity with
which he had faced the crisis and
dominated the interview; lastly. there
was q keen, terrible pang of jealousy
and bitterness toward that other wom-
an. It was this last emotion that was
self revealing.
Eleanor Haldane knew now that
she loved this a She realized in
this unwilling of her heart that prob

she had sought to characterize by diff

KEEP PUPILS HEALTHY.

School authorities are realizing it
is difficult and practically useless to
attempt to educate pupils who have
poor health. A number of cities in
the state have appointed school ply
sicians whose duty is to see there is
nothing which binders development
into sound body.
Weak eyes, unnoticed by parents,
have been discovered and eyesight
saved by these inspectors. Adenoids,
the little nodules in the nasal pass
ages, have been discovered. These
have hindered the promotion of more
than one pupil, on account of their
effect on the general health. Pupils
with adenoids are usually dull. The
removal of the growth often does
wonders, but parents are seldom
trained to notice this growth. Ev-
cry community might well afford to
consider having a paid school ply

No Sentiment Developed for Third
Party in Minnesota and Some
Opposition is Felt.
MINNESOTA MEETING TUESDAY
Will Be Held in St. Paul and Cues
tons of Local Policy VIII Be Set
tied at that Time.

"a small but enthusiastic audi
ence" would describe the Progress
i've Republican convention held in
the court house at II a. m. today.
Thirteen men composed the conven-
ton and they elected five of their
number to go to ST. Paul for the state
convention which will be held there
tomorrow.
The meeting this morning was tax
en- by some to indicate that there is
as much Roosevelt sentiment in the
county as before the regular state
convention was held but others be-
lieved that the Colonel has lost
ground since the Chicago eonven-
ton. All were agreed that it was
but right that his name should be on
the state ticket in one form or an
other so that the voters themselves
could express their choice by ballot.
F. S. Arnold was chosen chairman
and F. S. Lycan secretary, the F. SIS
''having it, K. K Roe, F. S.
Arnold, T. J. Welsh, J. J. Opsahl
and William Chichester were elected
delegates to represent Beltrami coun-
ty at St. Paul in the state conven-
ton. They will go uninstructed.
The only real discussion which the
meeting developed was as to wheth-
er or not the delegates should stand
for third party in the state. It was
decided to leave this matter for the
delegates to settle when, on the
ground with the understanding that
the opinion of the meeting was that
third party movement was not nee
essary and that all the voters here
wish is an opportunity to vote for
or reject Roosevelt on the ballot.
Some of those attending the meeting
favored the printing of the names of
the presidential electors on the bal
lots.
The state convention will be held
in st. Paul tomorrow. Since the Wis
it of Sam Y. Gordon to Colonel
Roosevelt last week, it appears that
the third party movement is not be-
ing received in Minnesota with any
enthusiasm although the Roosevelt
supporters are willing to have his
name on the ballot so that a. direct
vote of the people may be obtained.

" \
RUM0R
St. Paul, July "a report
reached here this morning that
Emperor Mutshuito of Japan is
dead, but this cannot be con-
firmed.

Toxic, Japan, July 29.-The con-
dition of the Emperor of Japan is
such as to cause abandonment of all
hope of his recovery. From dawn
Sunday he has been unconscious. An
examination by the court physicians
at 6 a. m. disclosed high tempera-
ture, weak and rapid pulse and shall
low respiration which was greatly
accelerated from the previous night.
The critical condition of the emperor
was announced in a bulletin last ev-
ening and all the imperial princes
were summoned to the palace.
The physicians employed artificial
measures to prolong life but the in
lection of stimu1ants seemed to be of
little avail. The temperature in
creased from 100 to 1923 which with
the increased heart action and shall
low breathing, indicated that the en-
peror could not long withstand the
calls upon his strength.

PARTY MUDDLES IN NEBRASKA

Lincoln, Neb., July 29-"Extreme-
" muddled' are the two words that
best describe the political situation
in Nebraska on the eve of the state
conventions, which are to meet to-
morrow to draft the party platforms,
reorganize the state committees and
take other measures preliminary to
entering upon the fall campaign. The
state tickets and other nominations
were made in the primaries last
spring.
The Republican convention, which
will meet in this city, will see bit
ter renewal of the warfare between
the standpatters led by Victor Rose
water and the progressives under the
leadership of Congressman George
W. Norris. It promises to be fight
to finish for the control of the state
organization. What the result will
be no one can fortell with certainty.
Either faction may indorse the state
ticket as it stands, claiming it as its
own, or either may bolt and file a
new list Of candidates by petition.
Whichever course is pursued will
still leave the situation up in the air
SO far as the dispute over presidential
electors is concerned.
The outlook for harmony in the
Democratic state convention, which
will assemble in Grand Island, is not
much brighter than that of the Re-
publicans. The convention is con-
fronted with the prospect of a bitter
fight arising from the charge made
bye the Harmon Democrats that the
Bryan followers have attempted to
read them out of the party. The
trouble was started several weeks
| ago by the discovery of circular let
ter said to have been sent broadcast
by Tom Allen, Bryan's brother-in-
law, in which vigorous attack was
made upon the present Democratic
state committee The circular ap-
pealed to Bryan Democrats to drive
from control all who did not favor
Wilson's nomination. The attack
was looked upon % coming direct
from Bryan himself.
