EXCITEMENT HIGH
THIS AFTERNOON

BY the Mountain States T. & T. Co.
The prospects are that the crowd
in the hall today will be greater than
at any session since the convention
began The galleries are already
jammed, and many of the delegates
have arrived and are in their seats
The order of business will be fur
ther balloting on the nomination for
president.
There are numerous rumors fly
ing around the hall as to combina-
tions made between the various lead
ers made during the recess since
7:15 this morning. One of the prin-
cipal rumors is that, after three or
four ballots have been taken, there
will be break to Senator Kern of
Indiana. OF course, like all such 'ru-
mors, there are no means of verify
ing this, and it is only one of many.
The convention is called to order
by Chairman James at 4:12 pm.

THOSE 80 \. Y. VOTES

Associated Press.
Baltimore, Md, June rs, $3.50 pm.
The ballot of the early morning
hours was taken today as the start
ing point for all the speculations
about the democratic convention as
to who would be its candidate for
president.
All eyes were centered on New
York, Illinois and Indiana, and the
feeling was general that the nomi-
nee of the convention is assured OF
practically the solid south next No
vember and all energies were being
bent to this end.
II was conceded that the southern
strength of pivotal northern states,
notably Illinois and Indiana, would
combine enough electoral votes from
the north and south to secure a vic
tory.
The New York delegation has an
element of about one-third which is
favorable to Wilson; but the predom-
mating element of about so votes is
for anyone who has a reasonable as
surance of carrying the state of New
York in the election this fall.
At caucus yesterday the dele
gates agreed on complimentary
vote to Governor Harmon. They may
follow this with complimentary
vote for Gaynor, and they probably
will continue these complimentary
votes until they can see more def
nitely their way to make the large
vote of the Empire state the most eff
fective.
Tammany caucused at 3 pm. to-
day.

COL. C)DY'S FAREWELL
Light Witnessed by One
Prominent Man

No life span of man has witnessed
such general world progression as
that which has passed in the last SO or
so years, the last 80 being especially
prolific in wonders. For instance, in
1881, Col Cody, Buffalo Bill, was
gathering together wild horses, wild
buffalo, elk, deer, antelope, Rocky
Mountain sheep, and wild horses of the
plains; also famous Indians just from
off the warpath, with white contem-
poraries, such as plainsmen, hunters,
cowboys, and army scouts to visit the
East for mutual advantage. The In
dian saw the overwhelming numbers
and the immensity of the white mans
domain, and the white men of the East
were enlightened on the subject and
educated to a better understs nding of
the dawning of peace in, and the agri-
cultural possibilities of. the grandest
part of the empire, then known as the
Wild West. In that same year. 1881,
Thos. e. Edison, who has invented the
paper-carbon lamp, had the world
wondering il he would be capable to
or had really "subdivided the electric
light" succeeded in Illuminating his
house, fields and garden around it,
with this new iuimitable Industrial
factor. At the same time, Graham
Bell had perfected and was arranging
to have the first central telephone
bureau in Pearl street, near Fulton,
New York.
To the present generation how SIM
pie, how familiar, how facile to COM
prehend the known difficulties once so
hidden, yet how easy to find fault
with, testifying indeed that familiar
ity breeds contempt" What are won-
ders and miracles to one generation
are matters of slight Importance to
another. Just think of the millions of
telephones in the world, the electrical
wireless talking through air; night
made as light as day: in fact, $40, 0,000,-
100000 invested in this country alone
in the application of a science that Is
yet an infant! The men who were fac
tors in bringing about these great re-
suits have retired or about to finish
their labors and for the same reason
that prompts Col. Cody, Bucalo Bill,
who, like them, can look back with
pride and pleasure to the Illuminating
of untraveled ignorance on the sub
ject he has made familiar and who can
see the glorious work resulting from
the strenuous labors and duties he is
about to resign. Developments of the
vast country, once supposed to be a
desert, has proven of inestimable value
and added as greatly to the wealth of
the world as has the results of the la
bors of his coadjutors in this work Of
enlightment, during the 30 years era
of the spirit of light. Col. Cody
makes his last visit to your city when
he will present the combined history
and splendors of the Wild West and
Far East, to render memorable his
personal farewell.-Ad.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way TO cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition Of the mucous lin
ing of the eustachian tube When this
tube is infiamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
1t is entirely closed. deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which Is
nothing bu. an infiamed condition of
the mucous surfaces. We will give
one hundred dollars for any case Of
deafness (caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.
