President Tafts failure to make a
practically clean sweep in Ohio prob
ably puts him out Of the race for re-
nomination. 1t is not so clear yet
that Roosevelt will have majority
on the first ballot, but the popular
strength he has shown has given his
campaign an enthusiasm that is like.
~ to rally all the doubtful delegates
to his standard. Moreover, the fed.
eral Office holders and their friends
from the south care more for Repub
lican success than for any particular
candidate and the primary voting al
over the country has shown conclu
sively that Roosevelt is a much
stronger candidate than Taft. 1t is
probable that the anti-Roosevelt lead
ers. will make a strenuous effort &c
find a compromise candidate to de
feat the colonel, but II seems hardly
possible that they will go TO La Fol
lette. Cummins would doubtless be
more acceptable to them but he has
only ten votes in the convention
which is not enough TO materially
strengthen a coalition.

article taken from the Rutland Her

was candidate for chairman of the

Burke says that he is candidate for

else, Considering the field of candi

For an example of uncertainty long
drawn out, the Methodist conference
election of bishops is startling ex-
ample. The conference has been vot-
ing for week and has so far, we be-
lieve, elected only three of the eight
to be chosen. If the same style OF
election were applied at the political
party conventions, the candidates
would die OF heart failure before the

SIDNEY LANDON
HERE next week
Impersonator and Character
Delineator Will be at
Opera House.

Sidney Landon impersonator and char
acter delineator, will appear at DR..
Beans opera house next Friday might,
April u, under direction of Hartford
College Lyceum Course. By many this
is thought to be one of the best num-
bers of the entire years course.
Mr.. Landon abs carefully compiled a
program of character sketches which.
given in prose, verse and song are east
ly recognized as true to life. He is .
close student of human nature and an
apt mimic. possessing a keen sense Of
humor and a faculty of imparting 1t 10
others.
One of the most interesting features
Of Mr.. Landon's work is that he makes
up the various characters in the pres
ence of the audience. With a few def
strokes Of a brush. few marks with
different colored chalk. a touch of greas
paint here and there and the attaching

or any other character he wills to be
And more than this. Mr.. Landon imperson-
ates the mannerisms, the idiosyncracies,
the peculiar tone of voice. the walk;
in fact. the entity of the character he
assumes.
Probably the most aughable number
in Mr.. Landon's repertoire is his Dutch
man making a speech before the South
Chicago Democratic Club. 1t alone is
worth the price of admission many times
over to a student of character.

Beaver Dam Victorious.

The second game of basket ball be-
tween the first team of Hartford Col
lege and the Athletics, of Beaver Dam.
was played at that place last Saturday
night, when Beaver Dam defeated our
boys with score of 81 to 80. The first
game, which was played at Hartford re-
suited in a victory for the Hartford
College team. Both teams played unusu-
ally hard, and tried their best to win.
The second teams were also scheduled
to play and started in on the game when
a Beaver Dam player attempted to trip
a Hartford player. so spectators claim,
and this resulted in the Hartford player
in picking up the ball and throwing it
in the face of the Beaver Dam player.
This started lively scrap among
the two players, which was Joined by
spectators from both towns, in time
quicker than it takes to tell it, the
trouble was quoted, but the game was
not continued
