The statesman at Baltimore who, next
to Bryan, has immersed himself in most
glory, is young Luke Lea, the boyish-
faced Senator from Tennessee, who has
been one Of the leaders in the Wilson
camp. He has made friends among all
factions by his vigOr, fairness, and par
liamentary skill. but nowhere has his
stock assembled higher than among the
thousand newspaper men.
What's the matter with Lea as a com
promise candidate?" asked a newspaper
man among a group Of a dozen who were
talking with Lea in the lobby Of the Bel
vedere last night.
A poll showed he was the unanimous
choice and the proposal wouldn't be
as wild as IT sounds. either, except for
one fact: Lea was born in 1879. To be
thirty-five instead OF thirty-three years
old.
II you boys can get the vital statistics
at Nashville fixed by noon tomorrow"
said Lea, I'll be glad to consider your
most fattering Endorsement"

automobiles. Mr.. Taggart took the party
on four-hour ride. and wound up at

tainment is said to have cost him 81 900. -
The long-draWn-out convention. with
its all-night sessions, threw the money
wrench into the calendar of many dele
gates so that they did not realize at
times the day of the month or the day
Of the week. A weary man, so sleepy
that he had ceased to take cognizance
Of things about him, stood early to-day

80 ct guage the first time in %
days 81 ddo. The fall has in
creased t. a foot day aud at this
rate it VIII not be many days before
the rive, are again within their
banks The water in the submerged
Drainage District is dropping just as
apidly, as there are many outlets,
the POO feet break in the Big Four
embankment being the principal
outlet.
As the river falls the accumulated
water in the city Is more quickly
pumped out as the great pressure
through the sand strata is decreased
in proportion and seepage does not
enter as rapidly. There will have
to be further fall Of about 10 feet
in the rivers before the sewers up
town can he opened This fall may
not take place before the Mississippi
