 While Missouris return was being celebrated, Oklahoma S oil showed a re- turn to MvAdoo. but the announce ment of that would furnish the fire for another demonstration.

 Women In Charge
 The women were in full charge of the McAdoo demonstration.
 During the parade Senator Walsh of Montana relieved Senator Walsh of Massachusetts of the celebrated gavel with the flying head. The permanent chair-uan had shed his white flannels and gone back to the austere black cut away rig.
 Somebody started the I've want Smith" chant and immediately it was ringing from all corners of the Garden. It swamped the McAdoo demonstration so far as noise was concerned.
 John Keegan of St. Louis demanded a poll of the Missouri delegation when he finally could make himself heard, and his demand was seconded by Frank H. Harris of Rolla. Mo, a McAdoo man. The Missourians plagiarized some West Virginia wit in their announce ment in the poll, one fair Missouri ma trOn announcing her vote John w. Dav-us, the man who can save us"

 4 California matron who had been waving collection of little flags at ev- cry mention of McAdoo suddenly discov- cred that some one had slipped Smith banner on the top of the staff and that she had been waving an emblem for the New York governor. She indignantly tore off the Smith streamer and destroy ed it into tiny bits.
