 MEETING YESTERDAY

The three clubs at the Central High school composed of the young men of that institution held a spirited debate yester- day afternon in the school building. The subject, Resolved That it is folly to be wise" was ably hfldled by the gentle men especially delegated to discuss it. On the affirmative were MT Solomon Gardi- ner of the Hilliard, MT. Jack Cozine of the Curry and Mir William Barry of the Yancey. Mr. Orville Coston of the Hil- Hard, Mir Latamire Brown of the Hil- anda MT. Clyde Guthrie of the Curry up- held the negative side of the argument, and upheld it so consistently and so log ically that the judges could but decide in their favor.

He Broke His Guitar

"A little while ago I broke my guitar as I was learning to play fairly well, but this is not why I ask this kind favor of you It is because the guitar was great friend that helped me to pass away many sad and lonely hours each day I am alone In the world. and I have nothing with which to buy another one, so l thought maybe you would help me to one. It will be deeply appreciated by me. I won't forget to do unto others as I would that they do unto me- I haven't any thing now. I will be glad indeed to get a guitar or a mandolin; also a few old magazines would be acceptable.
 WILLIAM s.
 A naive, straightforward, unaffected statement of the case in hand that merits attention. If young fellow finds solace in such innocent diversion from sadness and lonely musings as music and maga- zines, in the name of humanity and nor ality let him have them.

DENY GERMANS WANT
 ITO BUY SMALL ISLAND

Washington, November 1.-Senor Suarez, Chilean minister here, declared today that the report that Germany was about to buy from Chile a coaling station0on one of the Magellan Islands was foolish. His country, he added. was not in the mar ket selling coaling stations to foreign governments ard would be no more will ing than the United States to part with one of her ports. No coal is being mined in that part of the country, the minister explained whereas at one or two ports up along the coast foreign vessels can buy fuel.

 When Rosewater, in voice that just reached the stenographers, named Root as temporary chairman of the convention, Governor Hadley, ten feet away, rose and was recognized by ti,e chairman.
 Then someone was recognized by the chair, down among the delegates, and man was boosted upon the platform, who made vigorous speech for La Toilette. And then Governor McGov- ern, of Wisconsin, was nominated for temporary chairman.

Chicago, June 18.-With Elihu Root Eeected temporary chairman of the National Republican convention over Francis E. McGovern, of Wisconsin, Ehe Roosevelt candidate by vote of sS8 to 502, each faction of the Republi- can party is loudly claiming that the other has been defeated. Roosevelt is out of it, was the cry Eot the Taft men as they left the con sVentiOn hall after a session that last cd from noon until 7::30. We've got Taft beaten,' was the sihout of the Roosevelt men, as temp nrily they abandoned their talk of eot and went into conference with a view to strengthening their lines.
 Tonight the generals commanding the rival forces neither confident of Victory for their own candidates are analyzing the result and trying to get some comfort out of it.
 Up to late hour neither side was aopeful of anything but the defeat oi the other.
 The total votes cast in the conven' uon for temporary chairman was l. V1s out of total of 1,07S, divided as ionows:

 MAKE BOND. Hotel GayOsO Also Has Worthless Pa" per at Memphis Friends Come
 To His Aid.

F. N. Hall, the young St. Louis lumberman, who was arrested recent ly at Alexandria, La, by Constable Frank Stewart and brought back here to answer three charges of obtaining money under false pretenses, having cashed worthless drafts on the Hotel Jefferson and on R M. Knox Jr., still occupies a cell at the county jail. An other message was received ty Con- stable Stewart yesterday from the Ho- tel Gayoso management Memphis Tenn, asking that Hall be held for the Memphis authorities in the event he is not prosecuted here.
 Judge w. D. Jones, of the law firm of Taylor and Jones, was yesterday engaged to defend Hall and an effort will be made within the next day or two to secure his release on bail. Judge Jones was engaged by Julian Shields, proprietor of St. Louis mil linery house, by whom Halls brother, George Hall, is employed. Mr. Shields was not acquainted with the prisoner until yesterday morning, when he call ed on him in the county jail, but he 1 interested himself in his case at the request of his brother, who lives in St. Louis. Shields says that Hall is prominently connected and that his relatives will come to his aid as they learn of his incarceration.
 Hall still insists that he has beer double crossed that the drafts ht gave to Pine Bluffians and hotel mer in other cities should have been cash ed promptly and that he cannot under stand why they were not paid. He i. persistent in his statement that there is such firm as the Century Lum Der Company in St. Louis and that h' represented that firm as buyer ant was told to draw on that concerl whenever he needed money.

(By Elbert Hubbard)

Chicago, June 1S.-The arrange ments were perfect Like the jealous salesman who was kicked downstairs, no matter what your political prefer ences, you could not but admire the system. There was no jam at the doors and none in the streets.
 Half square before you reached the hall you were gently detained by men in blue, who evidently had re- ceived orders to be courteous and keep their tempers above all things.
 These men asked: Gan we be of service to you?" You might have sup posed they had been reading Sheldon on "Salesmanship.'
 They apologized and examined your tickets. Then they directed you where you entered. There were enough policemen, so they kept the crowd we'll back. At the doors you were carefully looked over. Parties with smell of liquor on them or a suspicion of firearms never reached the door at all. If they had tickets, the pasteboards were politely declar- ed regular or commercials.
 The policemen had no cluhs in sight. They wore white gloves, shoes shined, and were clean shaved. They were picked men, not too old, and not so absorbingly young.
 And so the throng passed quietly in the great building, and at every aisle were more policemen. Then there were lady policemen who asked the

 The day was perfect. The sky was blue and cold refreshing breeze came from the lake. At exactly high noon there was a presentation of a gavel, a little speech by Victor Rose water, which no one heard excepting the stenographers.
 Then came an invocation, brief and short, ending with the Lords prayer.
 The atmosphere was tense with suppressed excitement.
 A line of policemen stood silent be- tween the platform and the audience.
