How He Tanned the Gallery.

E. Fl. Sothern tells an amusing
story of his father, E. A., otherwise
'Dundreary" Sothern. During the sum.
mer of 1868, the elder, with John T.
Raymond and several other wellknoWn
actors, occupied the local theater Of q
seaside summer resort, to which he
and his company drew large house
several nights in the week to hear and
see them act-rehearse, really, impor.
tant plays for their next winters New
York season. -@r -
The gallery "gods" became so OBJ
streperous on occasions that it was
with great difficulty the play could be
proceeded with. The ringleader,
town tough, was known as Bill Han
rahan.
The elder Sothern addressed him in
the midst of the most unearthly noise,
as follows: 'Mr. Hanrahan, will you
be good enough to take charge of the
gallery and keep order for me? I
shall feel very grateful"
The result was magical! Bill cracked
the heads of few of his erstwhile
fellow rioters with such good effect
that it was only little time before
the best of order prevailed.

0tD-T|ME REMEDY
DARKENS The HAIR
Gives Color, Lustre to Faded and
Gray Hair-Dandruff Quickly
Removed.

For generations Sage and Sulphur
have been used for hair and scalp
troubles. Almost everyone knows
the value of such combination for
keeping the hair a good even color,
for curing dandruff, itching scalp
and falling hair, and for promoting
the growth of the hair. Years ago
the only way to get a Hair Tonic of
this kind was to make it in the home,
which was troublesome and not al
ways satisfactory. Nowadays, almost.
an, up-to-date druggist can supply
his patrons with ready-to-use pro-
duct, skillfully prepared in perfectly
equipped laboratories.
An ideal preparation Of this sort
is Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, in which Sage and Sulphur
are combined with other valuable,
remedies for scalp troubles and thin,
weak hair that is losing it's color or.
coming out. After using this remedy.
for a few days, you will notice the
color gradually coming back, your
scalp will feel better, the dandruff
will soon be gone, and in less than
a months time there will be Won
derful difference in your hair.
Don't neglect your hair if it is
full of dandruff, losing it's color or
coming out. Get a fifty cent bottle
of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur from
your druggist, and see what a few
days treatment will do for you. All
druggists sell it, under guarantee
that the money will be refunded if
the remedy is not exactly as repre-
sented. "

What Do You Think

Suppose, at the forth coming Chi
cago national convention Taft is re-
nominated and that at the Baltimore
convention a standard, old-line, guar
anteed stand-patter like Judson Har-
mon is nominated, what do, you think
will happen?
Does this appear reasonable: That
within 60 days after such nomina-
tion insurgent spirit, over the length
and breadth of this country, will con-
centrate in the form of a new nation
al party, probably called the progress
sive party? Do you think that is
likely to happen?
Assume that the progressives in
the Republican and Democratic par
ties do amalgamate in a new progress
sive party, who will be the leader?
Who is the logical candidate? La
Toilette Wilson? Brandeis? Hi
ram Johnson?
With the machinery of the two old
line parties working against the
Progressive party" could it win in
1912? In 1916?
Can the avalanche of popular pro-
gressive sentiment be in any way
stayed this year? Do you believe
that the widespread insurgency
among the people will permit of the
nomination of stand-pat candidates
at both Chicago and Baltimore?-

IT ASTONIsHED THE COOK
Marvellous Appetite of "Mr. Claren-
don," Whose Name Was Pass
port to Kitchens Best.

J. Hayden-Clarendon, eating his
three meals in a German grill OF much
renown, has, day by day, extended his
acquaintanceshipf from the steward to
each of the walters and from thence
into the kitchen to the cooks. And it
so happened a while ago that one of
the cooks had had to send his wife to
hospital. Clarendon, ever thought
full, bought flowers and sent them out
to the kitchen to be forwarded thence
to the hospital.
This, OF course, made him more
than solid with the culinary depart
ment OF the big restaurant, with the
result that whenever waiter an
nounced that the order was for Mr..
Clarendon the cooks would go to
the limit in getting him the best
steaks and chops and serving them as
works of art. .
The walters weren't slow in learn
Ing that the word "Clarendon" was
the passport to the kitchens best
the open sesame, as it were.
So It. happened that one afternoon
waiter came into the kitchen with
the order:
"T-bone steak, rare, for Mr.. Claren-
don."
The man at the broiler threw up
his hands.
whats come over Mr.. Clarendon p
he asked in astonishment. He has
had two porterhouse steaks, boiled
salmon, ham and eggs, three oyster
stews, sanddabs, chops, and now he
wants a T-bone steak-and all in an
hour!"-San Francisco Chronicle.

THE HOUSE NO LONGER A TIE.
Utter's Death Gives Democrats Ma
jOrity of One state.

JOrity Of One state.
WASHINGTON. Nov. +.-The death OF
Representative Utter. Republican. OF
Rhode Island. was regarded by poll
ticians here to-day as the first event
tending to break the possible deadlock
in the House Of Representatives which
now prevails and which might prevent
it from choosing President in the event
there is no selection by the Electoral
College.
Rhode Island is one Of the .tie States
in the House. having one Republican
congressman and one Democratic. IL
Utter's seat is not filed or Democrat
is seated in his place. Rhode Island as
a state, would be in the Democratic list
of the House.
There would then be twenty-three
States voting as Democratic, twenty
two voting as Republican and three
twenty-five States are necessary to a
choice. Utter was a candidate for re-
election. 30 that while q political COM
mittee can select q successor to him
for the Sixty-third Congress, a special
election Of some sort must be held, to
name his successor in the SiXty-second
Congress.
PROVIDENCE. Nov. 4.-The question
of special election to fll the vacancy
for Congressman Utter's unexp pired term
has not been settled as yet. j. Ellery
udson, chairman of the Republican
Q nmittee of the Second Congress dis
trict. said tonight he believed the Gov
ernor will order the election at once.
in view of the situation at Washington.
He added that in case Zenas w. Bliss
is elected Congressman from that dis
trict in to-morrow's election he will! be
the party's candidate at the special cleo
tion to ill Mr.. Utter's unexpired term.

ORATORS AND CYMBA1s CLASH.
Rival speIIbinding Parties out with
Buses and Bands.

All over town yesterday the leather
lunged professional spellbinder and his
equally impassoned sorethroated anna
teur oraNorical colleague worked over
time telling their fellow citizens how to
perform their most sacred duties at the
polls to-day.
A motor bus bore speakers from the
College Mems Woodrow Wilson League
TO the Franklin statue on Park row early
In the afternoon and found tickled groups
listening to Republicans. Bull Moose and
Socialist spellbnders who were talking
at once a few feet apart. E. q. Coates
arose in dignity on top OF the bus. spread
out his hands for silence and started to
speak. There was a cry Of I'VE want
Teddyl" from the crowd. some Of whom
didn't want him at all. and MIR. Coates
couldn't make himself heard.
Another college bus drove up at this
junct,lre. Its band began to play Every
body's doin' it now" and the Bull Moosers
sang with vehemence Every Ones for
Roosevelt Now" Thereupon MIR. Coates
looked panied until the bandmaster had a
happy inspiration and started The Star
Spangled Banner" The Bull Moose
orator could not speak against the band.
He stopped az MIR. Coates had stopped ana
took of his hat as did everybody else In
the crowd.
As soon as the band ran down N. N.
Arnold from his perch on the bus asked
his fellow citizens for q square deal and q
chance to be heard. but the shouters
howled him down. After few more &C.
lections by the band the buses drove
away.
The College Mems League made SPELL
binding tour Of the city with half dozen
buses and bands. At many street corners
where Bull Moosers were holding meetings
the buses stopped near by. the music iaus
tuned up and a tug Of war took place be-
tween the music and the Progressive elo-
quence. Music came of victorious many
times. 80 tickle were the crowds.
Early In the day street fakers put in an
appearance with cowbells, rattles, horns
and nondescript noisetnakng devices.
but they didn't find very ready market
for their wares. Business will rush. how
ever. when the election crowds gather to-
night.
Many folks belonging to the.I Told You
So fraternity TOOK pains yesterday to
secure a Wilson. Taft and n Roosevelt
campaign button. The button of the
winner will surely be pinned in con-
spicuous place as soon as 1t is known to-
night who is elected.
