CHARACTER IN READING

The Youths Companion does more
than entertain: it affords the reader
mental and moral tonic. It's stories
are not only we'll told, contributed
by the best writer's of stories, but
they maintain the standards, reflect
the ideals of the best homes. They
do not throw a false glamour over
the tawdry things of life. Rather
do they depict the courageous, the
healthful, the simple-the true life
OF the greater number with their
adventures, their conflicts of tenn
permanent, their failures and sue

w. A. GILMORE
 IS HEARD FROM
SENDS OUT PROSPECTS OF DOINGS AT REPUBLICAN
 CONVENTION.

SEATTLE, May 17.-When Mir Hilles, chairman of the Republican National Committee, calls the re- publican convention to order in the Coliseum in Chicago June ', he will use a beautiful ivory gavel made in Nome, Alaska, from the tusk of a prehistoric elephant and donated by the republican club of that city. The gavel was presented to Mir. Hilles by Mir. W. A. Gill more, delegate to the convention. Notice of acceptance was received yesterday by Mir. Gilmore, who is in Seattle.
 It was learned that the gavel that is to be used by the chairman elected by the convention, was do- mated by the Illinois delegation and was made from an historic Lincoln tree. These gavels will be inspect ed by thousands.
 The ivory gavel will remain a present to MT. Hilles and the Lin coin gavel will become the gift of the permanent chairman.
 The latest Eastern dope indicates says MT. Gilmore, a compromise. That is to say, the nomination for the presidency will be between Root and Hughes, with a slight tendency to favor Root. For the vice-presi- dency, Senator Burton appears to be the favorite.
 Mir. Gilmore will leave here Sat urday for the East where he in- tends to visit New York, Buffalo. Washington and return in time to attend the convention at Chicago.
