TABLES OF
THE MANAGERS
SHOW VARIANCE IN CLAIMS
FOR TAFT AND Roosevelt T
Comparison of Rival Statement.
Made by New York
Post.

NEW YORK. May 26.-The New
York evening Post, an Independent
paper, prints an interesting article on
the standing of the Taft-Roosevelt
candidates. for the presidency. II
cites the fact that the progress OF the
campaign has brought no abatement
OF the claims of the directors OF the
political fortunes OF the two chief can
didates and that the table given cut
by the Taft manager bears no resem-
blance TO that given out by the
Roosevelt men. II adds that II both
are TO be believed. there are many
delegates going TO Chicago bent on
voting for both men on the first bal
lot. In the Taft column Mr. McKIn-
ley has placed all the delegates whose
rights TO seats In the convention arc
contested by Senator Dixon. In fact.
Mr.. Mckinley pays little attention 20
contests, except to say that he has
counted in the Taft total two dele.
gates from Indiana. eight from Mis-
souri,. two from Oklahoma. and two
from North Carolina. against whose
rights to be recognized as regular he
thinks some question properly may be
raised. The only contests on behalf
OF Mr.. Taft which Mr.. Mckinley
seemingly has admitted are two In
Kentucky and four in Missouri.
The Post continues that both sides
claim Texas. the one that Taft will
get 26 and Roosevelt six OF the dele
gates. with the delegateSat-large yet
10 be elected. At the Roosevelt head.
rquarters. at least 80 and perhaps the
entire forty are claimed for Roose-
welt.
In the table. which the Post pre-
sents, II states the Taft total Is per
haps smaller than possibly may be
the case. but the fact is due TO recog.
milton OF dozen or more contests
made by the Roosevelt managers with
reasons back OF some OF them. Some
OF the delegates contested are In
structed for Taft, and will presumably
vote for him II allowed so to do by
the national committee. President
TIT has about 40 delegates instruct
ed for him and there are others un-
instructed who are said 70 be pledged.
lie has not enough delegates who are
certain TO stick TO his cause to nom.

This gives a chic and altogether charming effect And she says again, "Of course a great deal de- bends on the size and shape or your papa. If he be tall and slender one of his legs will make long pincushion, such as are so much in vogue now for dressing table use. This can readily be done by cutting the pants leg the desired length stufflng with sawdust and sewing securely at both ends. When covered with a dainty bit of lace this makes the prettiest cushion imaginable With the other leg lovely roll for couch can be made. Or. if var nished, to make it water proof, it will make nice vase for long stemmed Amer ican Beauty roses. If papa is short and stout, sweet way to utilize his discarded pants is to run stove pipe down each leg. This will enable them to stand alone, and they can be used as an umbrella stand in the front hall. one leg being used for umbrellas and the other for canes. A coating of gold paint (bought for the sum of p cents at any art store) will make them look handsorner,'
