Charles r. Murphy. leader of Tam
many hall; Representative 4. Mitchell
Palmer of Pennsylvania; Senator
Stone of Missouri; former Governor
Francis of Missouri; Senator Luke Lea
of Tennessee, and National Committee
men Taggart and Sullivan.
Leader Murphy was uncommunlca-
tive concerning the conference. Mr..
Mack expressed the opinion that the
time had come when settlement
should be reached and the highest
quality of leadership would be shown
II the leaders would forget that they
were for any particular candidate.
Notwithstanding the free exchange of
opinions and suggestions, no definite
results were reached. As one of the

GUEST TOWELS FOR SUMMER.

This Is the time when the hospita-
bio woman Is making her guest room
as attractive AZ possible for the bcne-
fit OF summer visitors and week -cnd :
ers who will appreciate restfui stay
In a real homo In the country. Guest
towels are great convenience--and a
practical help to the laundrcss, for
they take no time at all to iron. The
cross stitched towels In blue or pink
patterns are very dainty with ere

housekccpers prefer the pure white

more ballots" said Representative
Burlcson OF Texas. Delegates from
western states are receiving messages
from home telling them what to do
and we look for some effective changes
tomorrow
National Committeeman Taggart OF
Indiana was asked by an inquiring
delegate this afternoon. where are
we heading?"
Il can't tell you--yet." replied Mr..
Taggart.
And as far as I know do not
believe anyone Is In position to say
what Is going to happen"
National Chairman Mack called the
representatives of the various candi-
dates together soon after last night s
session closed with the purpose of as
certaining what candidates, II any.
would withdraw and what dark horse
possibility could be named. II was
understood that no representative of
Governor Wilson'S candidacy was
present at this conference.
The deadlock was frankly discussed
from every angle and the various lead
ers disclosed their strategical positions
with the plain purpose of convincing
the others that his candidate was the
logical choice
Senator Bankhead of Alabama, cam
paign manager for Mr.. Underwood,
made the conferees long speech, In
which he flatly said that all the OPP
ponents of Mr.. Underwood should re-
tire on the ground that neither Wilson
nor Clark could be nominated In the
present temper of the convention and
that II either side would join with Mr..
Underwood. the floor leader of the
house, with the addition of. votes from
Harmon and Marshall. could be named
Representatives Of Speaker Clark and
Governor Marshall also made it appar-
ent that they were In no mood to give
way and when the conference was
over National Chairman Mack re-
marked that the situation seemed to be
In more Of tanglc than when the ses-

OF the city as far as a half mile

THE HAM REVIVAL
Yesterday Was a Great Day and Re-
suited in More Than Forty Pro-
fessions and RecIamations.

Yesterday was the greatest day OF
the three weeks the Ham revival has
been in progress, notwithstanding the
fact the weather was anything but
favorable.
The IL o'clock service was held at
the tent and the evangelist addressed
Ia large congregation on The Signs Of
the Times" The sermon was based
on the scripture where the disciples
asked Jesus when the end should be
and what would be the signs Of its
coming.
He then took up the various signs,
as given by the Savior, and showed
how they are coming to pass in this
present age. Their fulfllment, as
shown by the evangelist, was wonder
full, and was one OF the strongest ar.
guments ever delivered here that the
latter days" are upon us.
Preceding the II o'clock sermon a
great Sunday school and children's
meeting was held. at which there were
many professions.
In the afternoon a mems meeting
was held and largely attended. The
talk of the evangelist made a>profound
impression upon all who heard it.
The rain interfered with the night
service, yet a fair-sized congregation
assembled at the Methodist church and
listened to another splendid sermon.
The result of the four services of the
day was more than forty professions
and reclamatlons.
The hour for the day services has
been changed from 10 o'clock in the
