Tafts Manager Says Roosevelt
 Gan Stop Taf1

Declaring that the Taft delegates are ''ironclad and unstampedable'' and that the coming of Theodore Roosevelt will not change one vote in the Re publican national convention. Con gressman Mckinley, pre-convention day, issued what probable will be his last statement regaSding the coming fsithe contributing editor, to Chicago, Mckinley says: ss
 From this time until the nomina- tion of William Howard Taft by the Republican national convention every effort will be made by the followers of Mir Roosevelt to sweep the Taft delegates off their feet by bluff. bull doze and buster. The coming ot Roosevelt will be a gala event among the rank and file of the Roosevelt following but it will not change one vote in the Republican national con- vention. That body is already fire proof and non-stampedable and notfl- ing which occurs in the events of the next few days will disturb the seren' ity of the situation.
 "The national convention is al steady as the Rock of Gibraltar ani or men can prevent the certain re nomination of President Taft.
 '"The outcome of the national con- vention, so far as the nomination and platform is concerned, is certainty now. Mr. Roosevelt still lacks 7s votes Of the nomination, according te the figures of his own campaign man agers, while President Taft will con- trol the conventionsby a majority ovel all on the first ba1lot.'
 Senator Dixon, the Roosevelt man ager, refused to make any public state ment today, saying that he was tot busy arranging for the coming Of Col onel Roosevelt. James R. Garfield, o1 Ohio, who was delegated to do tht talking for the Roosevelt men, said:
 .sWe have 49| votes in the conven. ton that we are willing to discuss 1T public. They are the men that WI know the Taft forces cannot get ever with promises of office or anything else In addition, we have more thar 50 votes that we are sure of but WI do not intend to permit the Taft pco pie to know who they are"

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

(From Mrs. Maud B. Cilley.
 To clean knives, pots and kettles, a cork used with securing soap IS very effective.

 dissolve slowly in the mouth.
 To clean very dirty windows, make
 a mixture of parts of water and kero-
 sene, wash them with this and dry

 yield to hot milk. Another plan ~is
 to rub the stain with half tomato
 and rinse in cold water.
 One economical woman makes cor
 set covers of her white shirtwaists
 that are still too good to throw away,
 though out of style. Spirits of arnica. is said to be use-
 full in bad cases of sunburn, but
 skould not be used when there is any
 abrasion of the skin. To get the very best effect from em-
 broideries used as edgings, do not
 trim the edges until after the gar ment has been washed and ironed. For baked stuffed tomatoes, cut quite a cavity in the stem end of the tomatoes and fill with butter, salt, pepper and a crust of bread. Bake in . moderate oven until tender. Drive one or more brass headed tacks in the frame over which the
  heads allow the windows to move over them easily, and they are all ways in place.
 The best way to mend a button hole which is torn out is to lay a piece of closely woven tape back of it, sew in place, hem the old button hole to 1t. cut out and work a new buttonhOle in it's place. To extract a needle from the flesh, apply a magnet immediately, as the flesh closes quickly over the needle. But the magnet arrests the penetrat t. ing movement of the needle and fin ally draws it out.
 Cloths stained with tea or coffee should be held under the hot-water tap; but if the stains have been some time in the linen, they must be steeped in warm water in which bo- rax has been dissolved. To draw threads easily from linen for hemstitching and other fancy work, make thick father of soap and apply with a shaving brush to the linen. After it dries the threads may be drawn without difficulty. An excellent celery seasoning may be made at home. Get 5 cents worth of celery seed; run it through the finest knife of the grinder or break it in a mortar; mix with about | ten times its bulk of table salt and bottle.

A novel way of cleaning wool skirts is to hang them on the clothes line and then turn the hose on them, cleansing first one side and then the other. They should be left to dry in the sun, and will need little or no pressing.
 Nothing is more suitable for the warm weather curtains than scrim, or even linen in a coarse weave; and if this is bought in a plain color, lovely sets for doors and windows can be made with the addition of little stenciling.

 The Ohio Taft delegates were en- ragged over the action of the Roose- welt delegates from the Buckeye state who had a. big electric sign reading "Ohio's 34 votes for Teddy placed over the doorway leading into their headquarters. Some of the Taft dele gates from Ohio objected and an nounced that they would take the sign down. To prevent this the Roosevelt men detailed Rocco D. Novario, a Cleveland fighter with a record, as a special guard to keep the sign intact.
 Discussing the action of the negro delegate, Banks, who sent back let ter containing money advanced for the payment of expenses of Missis- sippi delegates and announcing, al- though instructed for Taft he intend ed to vote for Roosevelt, Congress maR Mckinley, the Taft manager said:
 intend to assume that Banks is honest and will so assume until his vote, is recorded. That is all I care to say about the incident.''f
