Philadelphia, Pa, April 14.-Theo'
Roosevelt will get sixty-seven of Pen
nsylvania's seventy-six delegates to
the national convention in Chicago.
He will receive the support Of fifty
five district delegates and the twelve
delegates at large.
In one of the most remarkable po-
litical battles in the history Of Pen

publican machine dominated by United
States Senator Penrose.
He defeated President Taft in sixty
five out Of sixty seven counties, snow

sweep. He will get seventy four of
the seventy six delegates to the Balti-
more convention.
Champ Clark will get the other two
delegates. They come from the twen-

FLIES CARRY DISEASE

Do you know that flies are carriers
Of millions Of disease germs? That
they may infect you with tuberculosis
typhoid fever, diphtheria, scarlet few
9r, diarrhael disorders and other in
fectious diseases? That much Of the
sickness Of children during the sum-
mer months may be caused by flies :?
Also that one pair Of flies in April
may be progenitors Of billions Of
August? That they are bred in filth,
live in filth, eat filth and carry filth :?
They are an enemy to the health Of
the community. That means your
health and your childre's health.
And disease means time and money
you can i'll afford to spend that way.
Why not cooperate in the fight for
health, one of the most important
things in the world? Flies are not q
necessary evil and can be extermina-
ted. Many cities proved this and have
rid themselves Of the common nui-
sance. Why not our city? It can be
done but only by the cooperation Of
every family for one household can
breed enough flies to cover a half
mile square. Let US begin the war
now, it will be easier and cheaper.
Instead Of screening ourselves in and
leaving all outdoors to the fly, let US
gut the fly in Jail and let ourselves

MAGIC OF YINDU SEERS is A NATURE FAKE

Dear nill;
You remember of course, the
story OF the wonderful Hindu ma
glcian, which We believed all over
the United States. The favorite
one Is the yarn OF the conjurer who
tosses a rope into the air which
boy climbs until he disappears In
the clouds. From all | have heard
from residents In India this Is q
huge nature fake. The Hindu ma
eicians are reasonably clever
sieight of hand performers. but can
not be compared with the con.
inrers OF the American stage.
At Agra a native magician comes
to your room. squais ut your feet
and does his little tricks. Then for
couple OF rupees apiece he VIII
explain how each WAS done. In
stead OF the traditional wand he has
monkeys skull with huge brass
cyes.
The EnglIshmen over here are
