Clara Juveland, an eleven year old
girl, daughter of Jake Juveland, of this

was among other children playing by
the river near the railroad bridge,
when she fell over the bank and into
the river. She drifted with the stream
for about $50 yards, sinking and COM

for the heroism on the part of Martin
w. Peterson, the young son Of H. w.
Peterson, who plunged into the water
and brought her safely to shore, she
would very probably have drowned.

Ohio Senator Chosen for Presi-
dental Race on 10Th Ballot
at Chicago Convention.
BAY STATE GOVERNOR
GETS SECOND PLACE
Choice for presidential Nominee Made
After Deadlock Lasting Two Days
-Lowden Withdraws From
Race-Wood Fights to Last.

lCmcagO-Warren u. Harding, united
States senator from Ohio, was nomi-
mated for president, and Calvin
Coolidge, governor Of Massachusetts,
was named for vicepresident by the
national republican convention.
The choice of Senator Harding was
effected on the 10th ballot of the con-
vention, and the sixth rollcall of the
last days session, early in which the
impossibility of nominating either Gen.
eral Leonard Wood or Governor F. O.
Lowden was demonstrated.
General Wood went down fighting
desperately to the last, but over
whelmed by the coalition Of all his OPP
ponents under the Harding banner.
Governor Lowden though he had
forged ahead of Wood, found his
strength, like that of the general, re-
ceding, and, realizing his continuance
In the contest only would prolong the
deadlock, released his delegates, most
of whom went to Harding and accom-
plished his nomination.
Harding received the necessary ma
jority of 1913 votes, when Pennsylva-
MIA swung 60 delegates to his support,
making his total at that point $40.
The result of the complete rollcall IN
the 10th and final ballot was: Hard
ing, 674 ITO; Wood, 157 IL; Johnson,
80 rs; Lowden, IL; scattering, So
90. " e
Traditions Shattered.
Traditions were shattered in the
choice of Harding, for the first time in
the history of the nation member Of
1.-THE United States senate has been
nominated for the presidency. In other
3 respects; the election also has bean
unusual. Harding started as one of
the leading contenders for the nomi-
nation months ago, but he participated
In only two primaries, Ohio and In
diana, and was widely regarded as
having been eliminated by his failure
to capture the solid delegation of his
own state, and by the fact that he
ran fourth in Indiana.
Senator Harding came to Chicago
With no better porspect of considera-
ton than that Of "a dark horse" But
i fate was working secretly in his favor.
The Decisive Ballot.
!! AS the tenth roll began delegates
Y quit Lowden, Wood and Johnson right
and left and the big hall was in al
most continuous applause as state af-
ter state announced accession to the
Harding standard. It was reserved
for Pennsylvania to add the GROWING
touch of enthusiasm. When the Key
stone state was reached the Ohio SEN
ator needed 80 votes to nominate him
and Pennsylvania gave him 60.
A demonstration of several minutes
followed, most Of the delegates and
spectators standing and cheering while
: q procession carrying large pictures Of
the candidate and standard of some
of the states that supported him took
up its march around the hall. But 1t
was too tired a convention after the
/ gruelling excitement of two sweltering
days of balloting to long keep up such
a demonstration.
