Topeka Street.

Millionaires go to Palm Beach to
loll in the sand and have a good time,
but none of them has any more fun
than little Bill, a street urchin, and
his dog Pete, a gangling specimen with
a white back and black ears, had to-
day as they sat on sand pile in one
of Topeka's newly paved streets. The
PAYERS had left a little pile of sand
and little Bill and his dog appropri-
ated it as their Palm Beach.
Little Bill had a large sack filled
with cracker and cake crumbs and at
regular intervals he dug his little fist
down into the sack and pulled out a
handful of delicious crumbs. He would
stuff the crumbs into his little mouth
until it overflowed and then he gave
the remnants to his faithful dog that
stood with his nose in Bits face wait

chosen yesterday after Mr.. Morris left
the meeting. c. ]. Boyd is manager

vention at Cincinnati.
The meeting grew more disorderly
when Jones took the gavel. Delegates
all over the hall were shouting:
Put Jones OUT
I'VE want Morris -
Two hundred of Morris friends fol-
lowed him out of the hall. Most of
the remaining delegates left their
chairs and many of them surged
toward the speakers platform. Jones
was pounding for order in vain. Ten
policemen under a lieutenant ap-
peared and mingled with the crowd.
Some seized Jones by his coat tail
and pulled him backwards. He fell
to his knees, but was not hurt. Final
iy he abandoned his attempt 20 pre-
side and mingled with the crowd in
front.
Cries Of ''Oh, Lord, Help U.s. could
be heard above the din.
Suddenly Jones pointed at a dele
gate and shouted: ~.
ARREST that man. He threatened
my life" The man indicated eluded the
grasp of the policeman nearest him
and escaped, but a number of others
were elected. Rev. c. T. Walker of
Augusta, Ga, next took the platform
and tried to quiet the delegates.
