The Roosevelt leaders said they
were surprised at the Root vote and
that they expected him to poll be-
tween 575 and $50 votes. They pro-
fessed to be jubilant over their view
of the situation, but at the same time
it was impossible for them to figure
out on paper majority for the colo
mel.
Governor Hadley of Missouri under
self, will continue the fight begun to
substitute 80 Roosevelt delegates for
an equal number of Taft delegates
seated by the national committees in
contest cases. The Taft leaders say
that ample opportunity will be given
for discussion of this proposition,
but at the same time they character
ize it as entirely without the bounds
of reason and declare that any other
person might just as we'll present his
idea as to who should compose the
temporary roll call of the convention.
Cochem Resigns.
Henry F. Cochem, the Wisconsin
delegate, who nominated McGovern
and thereby clashed with Houser and
the La Toilette delegation from his
state, resigned as member of the
delegation. He issued sharp attack
on La Toilette in which he accused
the Wisconsin senator of having pur-
sued selfish and perversely mar
row policy
The Taft managers privately adj
mitted that the vote on the election
of Senator Root as temporary chair
man was too close to be comforta-
Bile" although they insisted they would
be able to maintain control OF the
convention.
1.-THE vote showed Enthusiastically
that we have control" said Director
Mckinley as he hurried into confer
ence with his aides.
Seek to Hold Margin.
Every effort to the Taft captains was
directed toward holding firmly that
narrow majority of Is by which Sen
ator Roots election was accomplished.
Estimates by Taft partisans placed the
real Taft majority in the convention
at between six and ten.
William Barnes, Jr., who LED the
fight for the Taft forces was jubilant
in the belief that he had made GER
tain the defeat of Roosevelt He
claimed strength for Taft but pointed
out no specific accessions to the Tart
column.

SEVENTY PEOPLE JOIN
FIRST NJ. {. CHURCH
Revival Meetings Have Been
Held With Great Sue

The revival meeting at the Methodist
church closed with the Sunday evening
service. Immense congregations were
present throughout the day. At the
forenoon service the sermon was upon
the Incarnation" 1t was based upon.
The word was made flesh and develt

clared. was a continental man. one as
OF whose wealth have not yet been ex-
plored or understood. He stands before
the world as a mystery, revelation
and an experience. with vivid words
was portrayed what Christ Is to those
who through faith and obedience prove
his power. Three persons responded to
the invitation of the evangelist, two
of them were sons of two of the lead
ing officials OF the church.
The afternoon meeting was even more
largely attended than the similar meet
ing for men on the previous Sunday.
Prof. Rice sang, The Ninety and Nine"
1t was a most suitable preparation for
the sermon on THE Prodlgal Son." This
was a great address given in that vivid
and vigorous language and up to that
high note of manliness that always
pleases men. Four men submitted their
lives to the master.
The climax of the day came with the
evening service. BY special request the
sparrow Song" was given by Prof.
Rice. And he said. tomorrow these
words which refer to Pharaoh. were
used as a text to show the follacy
| of procrastination. Neglect, indiffer-
| ence and postponement were shown to
| be rocks on which thousands wreck
| their lives for time and enternity. A
| good number of persons made confess
| sion OF Christ at this service. In THE
midst of the greatest interest the meet
| ings were brought to a close. Many
| but the limit OF time had been set and
| the leaders thought best to follow the

During these weeks of meetings THE
audiences have constantly increased and

came forward to make their confession

DICTATES OF FASHION.

The short coat OF lace has returned at
the bidding of fashion
The greiot or bali fringe is used to
edge the tunics OF wolfe and muslin
dresses.
Speaking generally, the tunic effects
are likely TO repeat their vogue of last
season.
The evening gowns of demitrain
length have straight. clinging. not in
curving lines. and a pigeon tail back.
A few coliarless utility coats are be-
ing shown. the net being finished on
with folds OF silk. ratine or plain cloth.
Many OF the new skirts are trimmed.
Some show the tunic with under petit
coat; others have side trimmings, and
some have loops and buttons.
The newest note is the use of vivid
colors is embroidery. Lace continues to
be used on everything in every style
and weight and every known design.
While the low side fastening is still
a noticeable feature of many of the
spring models, the revers are so made
| that they do not disclose as much OF
the dress or waist as was formerly the
case
A hat which. though large. is quaint
and attractive. is of leghorn faced with
| changeabie pinkish taffeta. The same
| taffeta is formed into two double DO,
plated ruffes with pinked edges. one
| going around the brim and the other
| around the crown near the top. The
brim is slightly raised in front TO RI
veal the facing and a cluster of very
| small flowers underneath.
