with the attitude OF the Republican
leaders OF today
"A continuation OF the present ad-
ministration will assure the people Of
this country that the hopes and ex-
pectations which have been partly
realized. will be more fully realized.
"The united sentiment Of the Demo-
cracy OF this State demands the re-
nomination OF Woodrow Wilson OF
New Jersey and Thomas r. Marshall
OF Indiana, for President and Vice
President OF the United States
I'VE. therefore. instruct the dele
gates this day elected 10 represent us
In ST. Louis. to vote for their nomina-
tion. and we pledge them our loyal
and answering support. which they
so we'll deserve from all the people Of
the United States. whom they so faith
fully have served.
I'VE approve and commend the rec
ord OF our Senator. Willard salisbury,
who. by his industry and conscientious
and able performance Of public duty,

ton in the United States Senate"

nouncement was made by the New
Castle and Sussex caucuses had unan-
imously declared in favor Of Senator
salisbury for committeeman, while
Chairman Hughes stated that Kent
county had taken no action Some
body moved that Mr.. Salisbury be
elected by acclamatiOn, and that was
all there was 10 t.
The caucus selections for national
delegates and alternates were ratified
by acclamation. on motion of former
Congressman Handy. and the caucus
selections OF members OF the new
State committee also were ratified by
the convention.
A. the suggestion OF State Chairman
Bayard, the party rules were amended
to permit of the election OF the ma
tional committeeman by the conven-
ton. instead Of by the national dele
gates. i'm order to conform to the new
Democratic national rules.
Handy Wouldn't Climb.
In response to calls. Mr.. Handy also
added TO the oratorical fireworks. He
said the United States never had seen
such prosperity as il has at present,
under President Wilson's administra-
tion. but he made no reference to war
orders bringing industrial prosperity
where there was widespread depres-
sion less than two years ago.
There arc two Jobs now chasing
around every idle man." said Mr..
Handy.
"I can look out Of my Office win
dow and see men laying bricks for
which they get dollar an hour" said
Mr. Handy.
"They earn it, too" piped out J. Ed
ward McNabb. Of Wilmington.
"Why. I wouldn't climb up there
and lay bricks for ten dollars an
hour" exclaimed Mr.. Handy, causing
a laugh.
Referring to the Mexican situation,
Mr.. Handy said President Wilson will
get villa if he lives. n he's dead. we
don't want him. That's the end Of il.

England hasn't been altogether

Former Congressman Brockson also
was called on and in the course OF a
speech said the Republicans lack
issues against the Wilson administrs-
tion and will have 10 resort TO a
campaign OF misrepresentation.

BATTLE TO DEATH
IN DARK HOUSE
Jealous Husband Kills Stranger
He Finds With Wife
in Home

Pittsburgh, Sept. THE story of
men of primitive instincts battling to
death in darkness, through an hour
and half, was calmly recited to Po-
lice Commissioner Walsh, of the North
Side, by John Nessler, of Hypolite
street
Nessler killed the unidentified man.
whose battered body was found under
the bleacher seats at Old Exposition
hun on Sunday night with his wife in
the kitchen of their apartment.
II struck at the fellow" Nessler de-
clared to Police Commissioner Walsh.
and when l landed the blow on his
face he returned the blow. Although
the interior of the house was in dark
ness, we continued the fight. At one
time the fellow broke his hold on me
| and, picking up chair, demolished 1t
across my back.
"a few minutes later I, too, got a
chair and cracked it to pieces on my
| antag gonist's back and shoulders We
struggled up the steps, locked in each
others embrace. From one bedroom
to another we fought, until, as far as
can judge, the battle had continued
for an hour and half. Then l secured
! hold Of sharp pointed hammer and
struck the fellow on top of the head.
Later I dragged him to the steps
and threw him headlong to the floor
below. where I struck him another
blow with the hammer.
Il waited until about midnight and
then I carried the man on my back to
the baseball ground. The man, I am
sure, was breathing when l left him
under the bleachers.'
Nessler and his wife, Mary, are un-
der arrest, charged with the crime.

Warrior King Refuses
to Unsheath Sword
Rr Atsncinted PresS

Athens, Sept. IA dramatic moment
marked a military horseshow given
recently in the stadium. The jumping
and riding exhibitions were over. The
white-skiTted evzones had marched inn
pressively past the royal tribune, and
two regiments of soldiers were drawn
up before King Constantine and Queen
Sophie to sing Greek folk songs. Sew
eral songs passed pleasantly enough
Then there came one about the exploits
of Constantine Palelogue, Emperor OF
Byzance.
Even to those who could not under
stand the words there was something
stirring in the martial lines. And when
a thousand voices rang out: "The War
rior King Unsheathes His Sword" sud
denly the whole mass blackening the
bleaming marble of the stadium rose
out: Yes! Yes! The Warrior King
Will Unsheath His Sword!. and cram
ing their necks to see their sovereign,
their warrior king of to-day.
Constantine ], sat erect and rigid in
his smart, white uniform a hand
but he made no movement. His left
hand grasped the hilt of his sword.
But the sword remained unsheathed.
and the song went on. Only when the
King had gone and the crowd was
pouring down the street that runs in
shouted that it was shameful that the
applause. for the king had been paid
for by German money.
A crowd gathered instantly. There
was a shot. An officer cut the man
who had shouted in the head with his
sabre. A score of secret police sprang
up in a moment and the offender (not
an unfinished building, down back
streets, to jail.

MANHATTAN RESTAURANT. THE
MECCA OF DOWNTOWN SHOP
PERS AND BUSINESSMEN

Serving dainty foods in dainty way
is an accomplishment not often found
in restaurants, and yet that's just the
way foods are served at the Manhattan
Restaurant, located at 317 Market
street, right in the heart of the busi-
ness and amusement district of Harris
burg The Manhattan, while serving
quick orders, is not necessarily a
quick lunch" room-it is more a
dining room; a dining room of taste
and refinement.
There are plenty of neat white
clothed tables, bearing a generous
complement of bright, shining silver
and sparkling clear glassware. There
are sufficient walters, so that delays in
serving are unnecessary-and these
same walters have had courtesy and
consideration for the guest so deeply
instilled in their training that it means
a genuine pleasure to dine with us.
Another big factor in popularizing the
Manhattan has been our employment
of only chefs of vast experience; men
who have mastered their art and who
need not experiment with dishes with
which they are not familiar. Before
they begin preparing a dish they know
exactly what the result will be. Accu-
racy in proportioning ingredients and
ments of the men we employ as chefs,
and this standard is always main
tanned.
Daily there are hundreds of down.
town shoppers. city visitors, business
and professional men and women who
gather here for their MONDAY and
evening meals. They have learned the
tastiness of the dishes served, the
wholesome. appetizing and thoroughly
pleasing dining room service-and
scores come here day after day. week
after week, simply because we have
learned the art of pleasing the palate
and the stomach with the same DISH
