Mention Of Rooseves Name in G. O. P Convention Brings
Half Minute Demonstration-WiI Take His Medicine
and Support Hughes as Nominee Of Both Parties.
ALI OVER BUT THE WAOPG THEY ARE 70 GET IN NOVEMBER
Suffrage For Women is Endorsed by Republicans but Right
Of Each State to Settle Question For Itself is Affirmed
Full Platform Adopted as Proposed

by the resolution committee headed
by Senator Lodge; a half minute dem
onstration for Col. Roosevelt when
his name was mentioned for the first
time in the convention; the perfection
of the permanent organization and
adjournment until II o'clock tomor-
row morning.
Senator Lodge mentioned Col.
Roosevelt's name in reading the Phil
ipine plank which declares for the
policy inaugurated by Mckinley and
continued by Roosevelt. The demon
stration that followed was principally
in the galleries, although it was join
ed by some delegates on the floor.
Senator Lodge well identified as a
personal friend of the colonel smiled
and waited and it subsidized in less
than minute by the watch.
/, SUFFRAGE INCIDENT FEATURE.
The outstanding incident of the
days session came with Senator
Lodges announcement of the woman
suffrage plank.
"The republican party reaffirming
its faith in the government of the peo-
pie, by the people and for the people
as measure of justice to one-hali
the adult people of this country favorS
the extension of suffrage to women,
read the senator and then he paused
while the suffragists began theil
demonstration.
But" continued Senator Lodge
when the noise subsidized, cit recog-
nizes the right Of each state TO settle
this question for itself. "
There were roars of laughter at
this qualifying phrase to what the
suffragists had celebrated as clear
cut victory and the convention hall
rang with the demonstration Of those
who approved the qualification.
Chairman Hardingof the republican
convention said that unless he is over
ruled, he will asked the convention to
90 straight through with nominating
speeches as soon as the convention
convenes this morning and that all
second speeches be made after the
nominating addresses have been con-
cluded and then only by arrangement
with the chairman.
About the only thing that can inter-
fere with this program, he said,
would be a report from the peace con-
ference committee. According to
present plans there will be no time
| limit placed on nominating speeches.
Seconding speeches will be limited tc
five minutes each.
! Nominating speeches were being
made at 3 O'Clock, Whitman starting
with Hughes.

BRISK RALLY

Unexpected Rush to Market
This Week Doubles Re-

Another season-end rush Of tobacco
this week ran the loose floor receipts
up to more than 100000 pounds and
prices were almost up to last week,
the average being only 10 cents less.
There was no weakness in the mark
ct, the difference being due to the
quality Of the offerings. The loose
floor sales are now double those Of
last year at this time. Much of the
tobacco now coming in is from dist
ance and there is complaint in some
quarters that low contract sales are
being jumped and the tobacco sold
for the higher prices prevailing.

NEW HOMESTEAD BILL PASSED

Washington, Dec. 16.-All disputed
points in the Ferris bill to provide GAO
acre homesteads, principally for graz
ing purposes, were smoothed out today
in conferences between house and SEN
ate, and the measure goes now to the
president for signature. ...
Many millions of acres of nonagri-
! cultural, nonmineral, nonirrigable land
would be opened to stock raising home
stead settlement under the bill and 1t
is regarded as one of the most i'm
portant affecting the public domain
passed in many years. 1t probably will
become a law next week, according to
the conferees. Under it the lands will
be open to any one upon entry and
three years. residence and improve
ment, without any money payment
whatever except ordinary filing fees.
Representative Ferris, author of the
measure predicted 10000 persons arc
likely to 20 from each of any number
of middle western states to take up
homesteads.
A section to which administration
officials objected, authorizing those al,
ready holding homesteads to purchase
not exceeding 800 acres of contiguous
stock raising land at $1.25 an acre, was
stricken out, in order to prevent specu-
lation. 1t would have permitted home
steaders to hold the addition allowed
without improvement.
The agreement provides that where
an applicant for stock raising home
stead entry applies for entry before
the character of the land has been Off
cially resignated, he will acquire no
rights against the government, although
his rights will be good against later
entrymen. The purpose Of this was to
prevent tying up lands by entrymen
attempting to estop the government
from making another classification and
requiring it to institute dispossession
proceedings"
The bill has been supported by the
interior department and western con-
gressmen as measure of further open
ing the public domain.
The house today appointed Represen-
tatives Burnett SABBATH and Hayes to
confer with Senators Smith Of South
Carolina, Hardwiek and Lodge on the
immigration bill next week and en-
deavor to get report to congress be-
fore the holidays.

A PAIR OF CHEERFUL LIARS

The crowd in the little country store
was watching the rain when Deacon
Witherspoon remarked that he'd seen
it rain about as hard as anybody ever
had seen it rain. Somebody said
"Deacon, how hard did you ever see
it rain?"
"Well, SIR" said the deacon, "once
upon time when I was at home we
had an old cider barrel that lay out IN
the yard with both ends out and the
bunghole up, and, would you believe it,
it rained so hard into that bunghole
that water couldn't run out Of both
ends fast enough, and it swelled up
and busted!''
Then Reuben Henry spoke up. He
said he'd never seen it rain very hard
but he'd seen some mighty cold wealth
er. Somebody said, "Rube, how cold
did you ever see iti"
He said, "well, sir, one time when ]
was living down in tPickaway county
in hog killing time we had q kettle Of
boiling water setting on the stove, and
we took it out in the yard, and it froz;
SO doggone quick the ice was hot"

BRuN ENJOYS ELEcTR1c HEAT

Bruin, the persimmon bear in the
Bronx Park Zoo is snoozing away the
winter months in an electrically heated
flat. A mud fiat it is, but none the
less modern bear home fitted with
electric heaters just like the most up
to-date homes of New York's million
aires. While his other bear cousins i'm
ported from colder climes are hiberna-
ting in cold and cheerless bear caves
"Bruin" is asleep in his electrically
heated lair dreaming of pleasant days
in his sunny southern home.
The reason why Keeper Snyder has
thus favored the persimmon bear alone
is not because Bruin lived in steam
heated home before he arrived at the
zoo, but because he was born and
brought up in the persimmon belt
where the sun shines with an Intensity
and warmth unknown to New Workers..
Bruin s fur was not stimulated in its
growth by the cold winds the other
bears stand with comfort, and so it
was only natural that he should shiver
and complain to the keeper landlord
of the zoo.
1t was decided that electric heaters
would offer the safest method of heat
ing Bruin s cave, and so while the other
bears with their shaggy overcoats look
ed on in some astonishment, electri-
clans figured out the number of heaters.
needed and arranged the scheme Of
wiring so that his bearship would not
suffer an electric shock or a burned
overcoat. Electric wires were run
through waterproof conduit from the
nearest electric light pole, the wires
were buried and attached to the heat
ers in the cave, and the current turned
on. An electric thermostat automatic
ally regulates the heat

way, steam heated, and first-class re-
pair department is open day and night,
thus making it convenient for the
guests driving to Denver stopping at
