ton in Chicago when Colonel Roose- velt's supporters sought his nomina- tion over Wm. Fl. Taft.
 Raymond Robins, temporary chair man of the convention, had spoken just three sentences of his keynote speech when he mentioned Colonel Roosevelt's name. A wave of enthu siasm that attempted to nothing less than a paroxysm resulted.
 We want Teddy roared the dele- gates and the demonstration was on. With umbrellas raised they began marching about the hall They slow ed up on the stage and wrung Victor Murdock's hand as they filed by until the KanSaSian collar was wi1ted. Ham, ilton Fish, Jr., and another man seized a delegate, bearing an Ameri- can flag, and carried him around the han on their shoulders. Banners were torn from their places and stanchions were lifted from the floor as the shouting host tramped around.
 Spread to Galleries.
 Chairman Robins made several att teInpts to Quell the demonstration but after a few whaclSs of the gavel gave it up. A band chimed in with the progressive battle hymns. Soon the surging crowd was tramptng the aisles to the strains of Onward Christian Soldiers. Despite the handicap of the delegates in the balcony, the demon stration spread there and soon specta- tors in the balconies joined in. Ban- ners with progressive slogans were snatched from their hangings and wildly waved. Then the band switch ed to Marching Through Georgia and a medley of popular airs and the aisles became so blocked that no one moved for several minutes. While the marchers stood still in the jam they kept up the din and after it had been going on an hour George w. Perkins left the stage and decided to go to his hotel and wait for it subside. The Michigan delegation tramped in from the rain outside and their leaders de- manded another outdoor demonstra- ton.
 Teddy is not afraid of the rain'' they shouted, Get out and march'i and in body they filed from the hall into the deluge outside chanting "Ted- dy, you're a bear" some of the dele- gates returned in their soggy gar ments with banners and flags bedrag- gled and dripping, but their enthusi- asm was not dampened, for they join- cd the marching, roaring throns again.
