DON'T QUOTE ME

Chicago, III, June 2S. (UP)- Last night the lid was off for the first time in the 1892 convention season. Democrats paraded the street, hotels, restaurants, every where. A band was allowed to play in the lobby of one of the more dignified hotels, which never be- fore permitted such q thing. It was & Jews harp band.
 Governor Roosevelts gesture to- wards relaxing the two-thirds rule fight gave the favorite son candi- dates a new lease on life. Reed men were button- -holing every where. Massachusetts staged raul GUS parade from one hotel to an- other in behalf of Smith. The Mas sachusetts delegation seemed to have only a few descendants of the Pilgrim Fathers in it--or if there were many they didn't parade.
 The Byrd forces, on the other hand, were surely blue bloods. The Richmond Blues were the most conspicuous representation on dis play. Tall, handsome. southern gentlemen in their blue and white uniforms, they easily could be pie tured as the sons and grandsons or men who rode with Jubal Early. They were a real decoration to the lobbies--and probably made a lot of people think about .Virginia's former governor.
 Tn the rules committee Senator Huey Long of Louisiana had just favored the audience with one or his typical speeches.
 A little man arose when the senator sat down.
 T suggest that hereafter those who speak should first tell us their names," he said.
 "The first speaker" said the chairman, twas MT So and So."
 But I want to know who the man was who just sat down." per- sisted the member.
 Long" shouted Senator Huey. Long" ..
 The first thing Governor Ritchie did when he got into the conven- ton hall was to go over and visit the Mississippi delegation. Later 1t became known the delegation was not of one mind on the subject of a presidential candidate. Perhaps Ritchie will get a vote or two.
 One-eyed Connolly. international gate crasher. got through the outer door of the convention hall but the guard on the inside stopped him and out he went.
 James D. Roosevelt, son of Gov ernor Roosevelt. shook hands with Al Smith, his fathers leading op- ponent. Young Roosevelt Is a newspaperman. He didn't believe 1t when 1t was announced that his father had abandoned the fight on the two-thirds rule. After the meeting of the rules committee some delegates began to think young Roosevelt was right.

BRITAIN GETS REPORT

London, June 28-(U. P.) The foreign office has received report from the acting Consul General in New York on the suicide of Violet Sharpe, Mrs Dwight Morrow's housemaid, who committed sui eide rather than face further ques- tioning in the Lindbergh kidna ping case.

popular. as what was turned out there in former years, nevertheless people will be pleased to see the plant In operation, for since 1t has been idle 1t served no purpose and many questions were being asked what was to become of 1t. The fact that it is to be devoted to the manufacture of ice. is an in- dication that there is little likeli- hood of 1t ever being used again for the manufacture of lager beer and ale.
