Feature at Marlboro Track
Large Saturday Crowd.

A typical Saturday afternoon crowd
witnessed the running Of the best card
so far offered at Marlboro yesterday. In
many Of the contests close finishes were
in order. This was especially IN the
fourth event, when AgEmenticus uosed
out Red Jacket The former was quoted
at 10 to /, while Red Jacket. the favorite,
was to 8. Skirvin rode good race on
Red Jacket. running all around his field,
and would surely have won In another

In the steepIechass event Enniskillen,
the favorite. never had look-in. The
winner turned up in RaceweIl, another
long shot.
Deduction made show Of his field in
the sixth event.s and won easily, while
Royal Onyx, in the fifth race, also went
10 the front at the drop Of the flag and
was never headed.
MoIle s., the favorite in the last race,
was badly beaten. She did not relish
the going and received no assistance

For Vice-president.
JAMES S. SHERMAN.

Chicago, June 24-These are the
standard bearers selected by the Re-
publican national convention to lead
the presidential campaign Of 1912.
After five days and nights OF the
bitterest fighting in the history Of
American politics, in which the great
est masters of political strategy in
the ranks of the party were pitted
against each other and every trick
and maneuver known to the game
were resorted to in an endeavor to
wrest victory from their opponents,
1t all ended in the choice of the men
who led the party in the last ma
tional campaign and who are now oc-
cupying the highest offices in the land
as the choice of a majority OF the
American people, to go before the
public as candidates for second
term
Taft's Name Presented.
President TarIs name was pre-
sented to the convention by Harding

onded by John Wanamaker of Phila-

name be not presented in the conven-

The convention sat in comparative
quiet through the nominating
speeches. The vigorous efforts of en-
thusiasts to start demonstrations for
their favorites met with only mod
crate success. The galleries were
shouted out and the delegates were
tired and wanted to get home. The
result was foregone.
Cheering Is Started.
When the roll call started with Ala
bama and 1t threw it's strength to
Taft a burst of cheering started. It
was settled that the Taft forces would
stand firm. just as they had stood
from the time they selected Senator
Root as temporary chairman through
the bitter days of the convention I'M
der the assaults of the Roosevelt
forces. The Taft forces had all their
old strength and few band wagon
climbers made it even larger.
Pandemonium broke loose when the
result was announced. The galleries
rocked back AM forth as II thew
would swell over and engulf the dele
gates on the floor. The band went

KEEPING BABIES IN HEALTH
Success Of Tent Scheme LAST Sum
mer So Pronounced That It
Will Be Repeated.

Mothers Of little babies that suffered
much from the intense heat in the
early part of July last summer will be
Interested IN the success of the baby
tent scheme adopted in some Of the
big cities.
The tents are placed on fiat roofs OF
tall buildings and in open lots, with
eight little cradles or cots In each
tent. When all was ready mothers
of babies under two years were invited
to leave them at the nearest available
tent over night, so that the young
sters, In addition to enjoying the prtvf-
lege Of sleeping out Of doors. could
also receive the attention of trained
nurses and doctors free.
Some of the tents have a perforated
iron pipe extending along the ridge
pole and connected with the city water
supply. On very hot nights the water
was turned on and allowed to stream
down over the canvas. BY evapora-
ton It greatly reduced the tempera-
ture inside the tents. Some OF the
tents were also kept cool by the use
Of large blocks of ice In tubs before
the entrance. Electric fans blew the
cold air from the Ice into the tents
sufficiently to keep the babies comfort
ably cool.
This Is the way some OF the poor
babies are being cared for. but the
ideas could be utilized by any one who
had the welfare Of the baby at heart
