|I[GRO DELEGATE ! EWES BACK MON NEY raft Manager is Given a Jolt in a Letter From
 Mississippi.
cLAIMS A RE M ADE
roit and Roosevelt Men Both Pre-. sent Figures as to Vote in
 Convention.

Chicago, June 14-A sensation
 which ecipsed even the announce ,ont of the Colonel's impending
 dascept upon Chicago was sprung
 this afternoon in a letter in which a
 raft colored delegate from Mississip-
 nj told Director Mckinley, of the
 Taft bureau. to take back his money
 and announced that he is not to be hought The letter was given out by Senator Dixon, by way of replying to the Mckinley charges of Roose-
 yeh bribery, sent forth Wednesday. < The delegate is Charles Banks, of Mound Bayou, Mississippi. The dis tfessing thing about it all from the raft point of view is that Banks was me of the gentleman seated by the Uaft National Committee, in the be- lief that they were all going to yote for the Presidents renomination. ! It is now apparent that Banks at least has gone over bodily to the enemy.
 The sum of money refused by Ranks in this letter is few hundred dollars, and not specified exactly. No one at tae Roosevelt headquarters would fix it tonight save Governor Stubbs, who sad:
 T have heard it was around $500"
 In the letter Banks says "I am re- turning to you herewith the money placed. in ms, hands at your sugges- ton to defray travelling expenses of some of the delegates from Missiis- sippi You can do as you see fit. The insinuation that I can be or even have been bought are known to be untrue and unfounded by no one better than those connected with your campaign. I have never asked any 'of you for one cent. A man worth H5,0OO in his own right, elected by bis own people to position as ser r,ary and treasurer and handling nearly $200,O00 per annum and whose credit is up in the thousands is not apt to allow you or any set of men 10 buy him with few hundred dol lars."
 The injection of this statement into the midst of the warning delegates created such commotion that has not been seen sn Chicago since the present. trouble began. The delegates forgot all about the fight at the Coli scum in the morning, all about the pans for the gigantic welcome that IS to be accorded the Colonel.
 William Barnes, who came to advo- cate the triumph of principles of men, put spent the day interviewing the colored delegates in private at the rate 'N one every ten minutes, merely salned when he heard about it. MT. Barnes has consented at great Mcrlflce of personal dignity to talk to 0me Of the Southern gentlemen" xnlie the platform takes care of itself, Opt ne did not care to discuss this Rrticular matter.

FOR CONdRESS:
J. HARRY CONVICTION
nr TAIpnT CnUNTy
Who Buys Electricity.
OF TALBOT COUNTY.

A neophyte in the electrical bust
ness recently asked the question:
''Who buys electrical machinery?'
The answer has been accommodating
ever since. He found out that
the new Chinese Republic is print
ing up it's new money, one side in
Chinese and the other in English,
with electric motors. He discovered
that $12,317.06 were spent with
one electrical company alone by
corset manufacturers in period OF
six months. He started through the
alphabet and found arsenals, as
phalt machinery, and automobiles on
the list of users of electricity. A
systematic classification revealed the
fact that over two hundred indus
tries of widely diverse character all
use electrical machinery.
The spread of the use of this in
visible agent is one of the marvels
of modern times. 1t is the universal
servant 1t is used in textile
mills, and thus serves to clothe
man. 1t is used in printing offices
and thus serves to educate him.
1t is used for lighting, and thus en-
ables him to read his books. 1t is
used for transportation, and even
if man prefers to walk it again vol
unteers it's assistance since it is
used in the manufacture of boots
and shoes. 1t cooks for him and
offers him additional dainties since
it drives the machinery in candy
factories and bakeries. 1t cleans
his house by helping in the manu-
facture Of brooms. 1t assuages his
thirst by it's activities in bottling
works and breWeries. 1t enables
him to smoke since it is used in
the manufacture of brier pipes, to-
bacco and cigarettes. 1t enables
him to fight by the making of car
tridges and gun powder. 1t heats
him in winter by its activities in
coal mines. 1t cools him in summer
by manufacturing ice. 1t enables
him to trade since it is used in
coming as well as for the printing
of paper money. 1t fills his teeth
in the dental parlors. 1t helps him
correspond since typewriters and
envelopes are manufactured by cleo
trio driven machinery. 1t bedecks
him with gems since jewellers use
it. 1t washes his clothes, as every
up-to-date laundry now uses cleo
trio drive for its machines. 1t
makes music for him, and sews for
him, and provides for his cleanli-
ness by the manufacture of soap.
1t furnishes his home by furnishing
power for the making of furniture
and wall paper. 1t binds his books,
washes his dishes, sorts his seeds,
makes his matches, manufactures
his eyeglasses, mixes his paint, and
does such a multitude of other
things that it would require many
columns to merely mention them all

The Merchants Dream.

Last evening I was talking
With a merchant aged and gray,
When he told me of dream he
had,
1 think twas Christmas day.
While snoozing in his office
This vision came to view,
For he saw an angel enter,
Dressed in garments white and
Said the angel, I'm from heaven,
The Lord just sent me down
To bring you up to glory
And put on your golden crown.
You've been a friend to everyone,
And worked hard might and day;
You've supported many thousands,
And from few received your pay.
So we want you up in glory,
For you have labored hard,
And the good Lord is preparing
Your eternal, just reward"
Then the angel and the merchant
Started up towards glory's gate,
But when passing close to hades
The angel murmured, "Wait-
! I've a place 1 wish to show you,
It's the hottest place in He'll,
| Where the ones who never paid
you
In torment forever dwell"
| And behold the merchant saw there
His old patrons by the score,
And grabbing up a chair and fan,
He wished for nothing more.
He desired to sit and watch them
AS they'd sizzle ,singe and burn,
And his eyes would rest on debtor
Whichever way they'd turn.
Said the angel, Come on merchant,
There are pearly gates to see,'
But the merchant only muttered,
This is Heaven enough for me-"

planned, examining the different meth

WASHINGTON, March 19.--In the
hope of averting the strike of the
coal miners, the house committee on
interstate and foreign commerce to-
day voted to appoint sub-commit-
tee to consider the bill introduced by
Rep Robert e. Lee of Pennsylvania
which would extend the Erdman arbi-
tration law to coal miners and opera
tors. Chairman Wilson of the house
labor committee who is also q mem
Der of the United Mine Workers or
ganization said today that his commit
tee would take NO action in the coal
situation until April l.
"The public seems to have entirely
lost sight of the fact that the bitumi-
nous coal miners. who number at
least 45O, 900, have failed to sign agree
ments. If the anthracite men who
number about 160. 900 fail to agree the
strike is certain to involve all the bi-
luminous workers, with the possible
exception of few non-union men in
the South" said Wilson.
