Another example of Democratic
inefficiency is being talked about at
the Capitol 1t is the slowness in the
payment of the soldiers in the Federal
service on the Mexican border. Not
only has this policy of delay been
exasperating to the soldiers. but it has
caused much annoyance to members
of congress who have been besieged
with letters asking for the reason for
the delay, and who have been unable
to obtain any satisfaction from the
administration.

HEARD AIT NATIONAL CAPITAL =

Washington, Aug. 12.- Special
Correspondence)- Senator Kern and
Taggart and Representative John A.
M Adair of Indiana, We're keenly dis
appointed over the fact that former
Senator A. j. Beveridge of Indiana,
came out so strongly for Hughes and
Fairbanks. Kern and Taggart who
are candidates for reelection to the
senate. and Mr.. Adair who is now
candidate for governor, have been
hoping that Senator Beveridge would
not support the Republican candidates
His hearty endorsement of the lat
ter was about the last straw in the
hopes of Democracy and there has
been much gloom among the members
of the Indiana congressional delega-
ton in both the House and Senate.
The House is a deserted place these
days The fact that there is to be
nothing doing but conference re
ports and that no Legislation is to be
taken up for the present, has caused
general exodus of members from
Washington. Many of them have
gone home and taken up campaign
work and are once more back greet
ing their constituents. It is the first
respite that several members have
had since the opening of the session :
There was a remarkable exodus of
members in close districts. especial
| ly was this true of Democratic mem
bers in the middle west states.

NEAR TRAGEDY AT
 THE STATE HOUSE

There was a near tragedy at the state house yesterday afternoon. Several days ego The Republican printed an article stating that one of the beams holding the elevator up had been discovered to be cracked and that immediate steps would be taken to replace it. Since then the elevator has been rather unpopular Many of the fair girls working in the capitol have refused to ride in it, and even some Of the men who are in- clined to register above the avoir- dupcis limit have looked askance at the cage when Tommy Howard, the elevator conductor, invited them to ride up with him.
 All was quiet and serene yesterday afternoon about o'clock. when a sudden crash from the neighborhood of the elevator brought practically every attache and official out of his office on the jump. Everyone rushed to the elevator shaft noticed that the cage was stuck half way between the second and third floors. and won- dered what had made the noise and who had been hurt. The first sup position on everyones part was that the elevator had fallen, and that someone had been hurt
 An investigation placed on foot by q self-appoirtcd committee soon as certained that in lowering the ele- vator to the first floor one of the cables had slipped off and hit the top of the cage with a resounding crash No one was hut and Howard soon appeared on the scene as nonchal- antly as if he had no. come close 70 being the hero of an exciting es- capade.
 steel beams are replacing the old wooden ones which had cracked The work will be finished in a few days.

WELL, HERE |S 0NE
 MORE SUGGESTION OV
 DEMOCRAT CHAIRMAN

In spite of the danger of being con- Sidered a picker" of democratic state chairmen, The Republican today pre- sents the name of another chap who has been considered. He is c. M shannon, formerly president of the shannon Copper company, whose name has been advanced by the irregular" democrats since the announcement yes terday morning that MT Olney had been mentioned.
 The democratic state central com mittee meets today to elect chair man and secretary and treasurer and a lot of blanks and other things.
 It's all right about the officers and things, but the platform part is rather odd, for the party's attorney general has ruled that this important structure was to have been built by the party council in its called (by law) meeting on Tuesday
 At a meeting of democratic state candidates yesterday, the names of George Stoneman and T. T. Powers were again recommended as chairman and secretary. Mir. Stoneman told The l Republican last night he would accept the office considering it a duty to the party. MT. Powers acceptance is as- sured, though it is said he would like to have the chairmanship, himself.
 Stoneman, d strong Hunt man, will 1 almost certainly provoke a scrap in the committee, and an interesting session is looked forward to.
 Mir. Olney's friends were somewhat surprised by the premature publicity given to their offer of his services fol the second time in his career as state chairman, in yesterdays Republican They then stouty denied that he would accept the offer and said he had SC stated to a representative of a loca democratic paper. His statement diC not appear in print, however
 The name of Mir. Shannon was ther mentioned. 'Is he another suggestion of yours or does he really stand a show of being selected" asked the inter viewer.
 If he will take it, he can have it, was the answer, implying that thu wishes of Mir. Hunt and the regular democrats, might not count for mucl in the event of difference of opinion
 It is thought by some that the over whelming victory of Governor Hunt il the primaries was accompanied by tn election of a majority of Hunt commit teemen, but this is answered in Mari copa county by the claim of some O the governors chief opponents in tn late unpleasantness, that they hay carried twenty out of the thirtyth delegates to the state central com mittee.
 Possibly, in view of this prematur publicity, neither Mir. Shannon nor Nil Olney will be offered the chairman l, ship today, however.

DAMON AND PYTH|AS
 PROVES SUCCESSFUL

Pefore an audience that literally packed the Ell.s Theater, Damon and Pythlas, produced by the local lodge of Knights of Pythias proved without a doubt that a local talent show can be put on for the purpose of entertaining as well as raising money.
 The acts were short and abounded with action. There was not a dull mo- ment during the entire play. The aud- fence was enthusiastic and very liberal with applause.
 Charles Ellis the producer of the play, proved himself an accomplished actor His portrayal of Damon was well received and pleased everyone
 Perhaps the hit of the evening was Miss Egleston. who played the part of Calanthe in d charming manner. She received much deserved applause.
 Cliff Maddox, as Pythias, Charles Heath as the cruel but forgiving ty- rant; Wilfred Drake, A. w. Sandige, Anna Monihon, Mrs. Bertha O'Neill and D. A. Little all carried their parts well, and did their share towards making the affair an entire success.
