Nicholas Broussard, colored, "a years
old, 2006 Fifteenth street, was acci-
dentally overcome by Illuminating gas
while asleep in his room early this
morning. He was unconscious when
found by his sister. Members of No. 2
rescue squad and a physician from
Emergency Hospital responded to ap-
peals for assistance. Broussard was
restored to consciousness and his re-

Cherry had the grace to look

Crystal did not see Faith or Bob
Hathaway until she went home from
the Pruitt Hardware Company Of
fices the next afternoon. 1t was
the last Thursday in June, a wilt
ingly hot mid-western day.
Cherry and her small daughter,
Hope, were there, on one of their
frequent spend-the-day visits. Mills
Jonson, Cherry's husband, and
Rhoda, his sister, were expected a
little late for dinner, Faith told
Crystal, after she had greeted the
girl a little constrainedly.
I'm in for it, about that Made
moiselle Eloise stunt of mine and
Tony's" Crystal reflected ruefully,
as she changed from office clothes
to the pretty buttercup organdie
frock she had worn the night be-
fore at Mrs. Tarver's bridge-and-
dance party. "She'd never believe
that Tony and wept buckets after
wards"
"Cute DRESS" Cherry flung at
Crystal offhandedly, as the tired
little stenographer entered the din
ing room, where the two sisters were
setting the able for dinner.
"Is that the one you wore last
night when you put the middleaged
French vamp on the rack?"
Crystals face famed and she shot
a glance of surprised anger at Faith.
ooh, don't get sore at Faith, "
Cherry laughted maliciously. Mrs.
Harrison, who ran in for an hours
gossip over the party, spilled the
beans. She thought 1t was unin-
territorial. But I got bunch about
it myself.
"Were you two kids paying the
Mam'selle back for hunking you
or taking your boy friends away
from you? But I must say I thought
Tony Tarver was better sport than
that"
"Thanks" Crystal retorted, as
sweetly vicious as Cherry herself
could be. GAS a matter of fact,
Tony and I did do it on purpose,
but our motives were surprisingly

A few months before convention
time in 1888 party feeling was over
whelmingly for him. Then he with
drew in two emphatic letters from
Italy, which allowed at least twenty
favorite sons to get into the race, in
Guiding Chauncey Depew and Lin
coins son Robert.
Blaine Is Discarded
All through the convention the
whole country expected Blaine
stampede, but he never had more
than forty-five votes.
Benjamin Harrison gained rapid
ly until his nomination on the
eighth ballot The convention, pro-
longed for week, named Levi P.
Morton of New York for second
place and the ticket entered the
campaign on a platform calling for
protective tariff.
The national vote was Harrison
$4,000; Cleveland $4,000 but
Harrison won 235 electoral votes to
1913 for Cleveland.
Back in power, the Republicans
paid their debt to industry, but got
in wrong with the American peo-
pie. They had bare control of con-
gress and jammed through legis-
lative program after giving a seat
to any Republican who would con-
test a Democrats election.
Consumers Enraged
This program included the Nc
Kinley tariff bill, raising duties so
high that prices promptly shot up
and enraged consumers. When the
1890 elections came the voters were
angry and taught the party les
son. They elected 236 Democratic
congressman and only 88 Republic
ans.
Harrison is generally underesti-
mated, but he was good, able man.
His first congress had queered the
administration, however, and led to
his defeat.
Leading politicians opposed his re-
nomination and wanted Blaine, who
left them flat in February by re-
fusing to run, although he later
expressed grief when not nominated.
Harrison won on the first ballot,
although Blaine and Mckinley had
1872 apiece.
Bosses Fight Cleveland
Governor David B. Hill of New
York desperately opposed Cleye-

lands denomination, getting his
state convention to meet in Febru-
airy and elect a full delegation for
himself.
Cleveland was always unpopular
with the bosses and they charged
him with defeating the party by in
jecting the tariff in '88.
The other states accused Hill Of
double-crossing Cleveland in '88 and
told Tammany to go chase itself,
nominating Cleveland on the first
ballot.
Cleveland won probably because
the Mckinley tariff had brought
great profits to factory owners, but
they hadn't yet passed any of them
on in higher wages for workers, and
many farmers were seeing their
mortgages foreclosed.
Cleveland Carries South
He carried the south, all doubtful
states and Illinois, California and
Wisconsin. Fusions with Populists
to beat Harrison captured Colorado,
Idaho, Kansas and Nevada.
Third parties had 10 per cent Of
the vote. The popular and electoral
count:

KANSAS FARMERS
IN D. C. HEAR FESS
Congress Desires to Aid Ag-
riculture, He Tells Sena-
tor Capper's Guests.

A sincere desire exists in both houses
of Congress to solve the problems of
agriculture, Senator Fess, Republican,
of Ohio, told a delegation of master
farmers from Kansas, who were guests
OF Senator Capper, Republican, of that
State. at an informal reception and
buffet supper at the Raleigh Hotel last
night.
The visiting farmers are making a
tour of the East, and the meeting ar
ranged in their honor by Senator Cap
per last night was feature OF their
STAY in Washington. They will be here
until tomorrow, calling at the White
House before departing for home.
Lawmakers Attend.
A large delegation of members of the
Senate and House joined with Senator
Capper in greeting the farmers last
night, and others who spoke, in addi-
ton to Senator Fess, were Senator
Frazier of North Dakota, Representa-
tives Strong of Kansas. Haugen of
Iowa and Ketcham of Michigan. Short
talks also were made by former Sena-
tor J. l.. BriStow of Kansas and three
of the visitors from Kansas, E. H.
Hodgson, E. L. Barrier and Jesse john
son.
Senator Fess said that he, like Sena-
tor Capper, would favor farm relief
legislation at the present session, but
that all indications seem to point to
the taking up of this question either
at a special session early next year OF
at the next regular session. He en-
phasized the point, however. that mem
bers of Congress are striving earnestly
to work out the problems that confront
agriculture.
Capper Is Praised.
Senator Fess praised Senator Capper
for the service he is rendering the Dis
trict of Columbia as chairman of the
Senate District committee, and told the
visitors from Kansas that the citizens
of the States should look upon the
National Capital as their city and take
pride in its proper development.
Representative Ketcham told OF the
progress that has been made in devel-
oping boys and girls clubs in the rural
sections of the Nation, pointing out that
Senator Capper has taken an active
part in furthering that movement.
