6 M’KINLEY NOMINATED. Continued from First Page. historic gavel, stilled the tumult on the floor, while the band ushered in the ses sion with the national anthem. Senator Hanna being one of the first to rise and the entire audience following as the inspir ing strains reverberated throueh the build ing. As the anthem closed the chairman announced the opening invocation by Archbishop Ryan. He paused until the assemblage had risen and bowed their heads, and then his strong, rich voice roll ed out a prayer filled with a sentiment of the deep responsibility resting upon the party here assembled. When the striking figure of the Arch bishop. at the finish of the prayer, disap peared in the throng on the stage, the vast assemblage sank to its seats, and the gavel fell to make quiet for the more prac tical work of the convention. Senator Lodge called attention to Louisi ana being inadvertently omitted from the roll call for national committeemen and that was corrected. Alabama also named its selections, having failed to do so yes terday. The chair then laid the amend ment to the rules offered yesterday by Mr. Quay as the unfinished business before the convention. tiun? Resolution Withdrawn. As the cheers died away at the mention of Quay’s name, the short and sturdy figure of the Philad lphian arose in the middl aisle. In thin voice barely heard m the p’atform, Mr. Quay announced the withdrawal of the amendment proposing a change in rules one and twelve refer ring to representation in national conven tions. This was accepted by the Southern delegates as a concession to them, and they arose en masse, cheering wildly at the withdrawal of ihe proposition. Now Mr Ledge advanced to the front of the piatform and a thrill went through the vast audience as he announced: "Under the rules, nominations for the office of President of the United States are now in order." There was a momentary shout, which i the chairman punctured with "The state of Alabama is recognized.” A taH and swarthy Alabamian stood on h!s chair and by pre-arrangement, an swered : "Alabama yields to Ohio." This was the signal for the recognition of Senator Foraker who was to make the speech nominating Mr. McKinley as the Republican candidate for President. Then the cheers began and a wild scene en sued. Foraker \nine* McKinley, Amidst a tumult of applause Senator Foraker wont to the platform, and when quiet was restored, began to speak, first thanking Alabama for th a lr courtesy in yielding but attributing the fact to the overwhelming popularity of the candidate. As Mr. Foraker continued he was lepeat edly interrupted with cheers. His an nouncement that the nomination of Mc- Kinley was equal to an e'ecticn in Novem ber brought vociferous cheers. Mr. Foraker said in part: "Alabama yields to Ohio and I thank Alabama for that accommodation; Ala bama has so yielded, however, by reason of a fact that would seem important; to make the duty that has been assigned to me a superfluous duty, for Alabama has yielded before the fact that our candidate for the presidency has been in fact al ready nominated. (Applause.) He was nominated by the distinguished senator from Colorado when he assumed the du ties of temporary chairman. He was nom inated again yesterday by the distinguish ed senator from Massachusetts when he took the office of permanent chairman, and he was nominated for a third time when the senator from Indiana yesterday read us the platform, (Applause) and not only has he been thus nominated, by this con vention, but he has also been nominated by the whole American people. (Applause.) "Four years ago the American people confided to him the highest and most sa cred trust. Behold with what results. He found the industries of this country paralyzed and prostrated; he quickened them with anew life that has brought to the American people a prosperity un precendented in all their history. He found the labor of this country every where idle; he has given it everywhere employment. He found it everywhere in despair; he has made it everywhere prosperous and buoyant with hope. He found the mills and shops and factories and mines everywhere closed; they are now everywhere open. (Applause.) Flnaucinl Standard Raised. “And while we here deliberate, they are sending their surplus products in commercial conquest to the very ends of, the earth. Under his wise guidance our financial standard has been firmly plant ed above and beyond assault and the wild cry of 16 to 1 so full of terror and long hair in 18%. has been put to ever lasting sleep alongside of the Lest Cau-e and erther cherished Democratic here sies, in the catacombs of American poli tics. (Applause). With a diplomacy never excelled and rarely equaled he has overcome what at times seemed to be in surmountable difficulties and he has not only opened to us the door of China, but he has advanced our interests in every land. The American name has anew and greater significance now. Our flag has a new’ glory. It not only symbolizes human liberty and political equality at home, but it means freedom and inde pendence for the long suffering patriots of Cuba and complete protection, educa tion, enlightenment, uplifting and ulti mate local self-government and the en joyment of all the blessings of liberty to the millions of Porto Rico and the Phil ippines. What we have so gloriously done for ourselves we propose most gen erously to do for them. (Applause.) ‘•We are on tried before the world and must triumphantly meet our responsibil ities or ignominiously fall in the presence of mankind. These responsibilities speak to this convention here and now. and command ue that we choose to be our can didate. and the next President—which Is one and the same thing—the best fitted man for the discharge of this great duty in nil the republic. (Applause.) "In the name of all these considerations, not alone on behalf of his beloved state qf Ohio, but on behalf of every other state and territory here represented, and in the name of all Republicans, every where throughout our jurisdiction, I nom inate to be our next candidate for the presidency. William McKinley. Briefly Senator Foraker adverted to the record of the President in peace and in war, as one of the most remarkable in American history, “In war and in peace.” said he, white the delegates and spectators echoed the refrain of the sentiment expressed, “he has been found equal to all extraordinary requirements. In all American history, there has been no chapter more brilliant than that written by the United States with him as chief.” Was Almost a Pnnilrinoninm. At reference to the greet leader of the party, the success already achieved ‘by him, and the grave responsibilities now being carried forward by him. the ap plause was frequent and long continued. But it remained for his closing sentence, for the first time mentioning William Mc- Kinley by name as the nominee, to elec trify the great multitude. Pandemonium broke loose Former tempests of enthu siasm paled before this cyclone of eoutid and movement. Every one stood and waved and yelled. State standards were wrenched from the places and l>orne aloft with umbrellas, great plumes of red, white and blue, a perfect tempestuous sea of color. Senator Hanna sprang to the front of the singe,a flag In one hand nnd a plume in the other and led in the tremendous dem onstration. Now it had lasted five min utes. Not content with their frenzied hur rah on the floor, the delegates now march ed in solid rank* upon the platform with standards, plumes, tanners and flags. Af ter the demonstration had continued seven minutes, the Ohio delegation where cen tered the waves of sound, moved up the aisle, while all the otlw r state delegations, bearing aloft their standards, formed in a grond procession about the hall. The demonstration lasted Just ten minutes. The plume demonstration was followed by the grand doxology in the singing of “John Brown's Body,” the galleries joining in the chorus, while the delegations l<f the singing. Roosevelt Old \ot Applaud. During the speech of Senator Foraker, Gov. Roosevelt paid attention so strictly that there was almost an anxious look upon his face. Once or twice, however, he got away from his intensity and applaud ed. When Foraker finished Rooeeveli arose with the rest, but undoubtedly with the prospect of his own nomination on his mind only, stool silent, not joining in the cheers and both hands in his pockets. Rut when Senator Foraker carpe down the aisle, he grasped him by the hand, slapped him on the shoulder, smiling and laughing aloud. One delegate threw off his coat and un fastened his collar as he reached the platform, and holding a plume in one hand he waved his coat with the other. Ex-Gov. Taylor of Kentucky stood on an end chair in his delegation and waved his right hand as the procession of plum a re turned from the platform. Chairman Lodge, as the hurrah began to subside, made an effort to restore o der, but this was only a signal for the crowd to again break loose. Roosevelt Seconded It. It was exactly fifteen minutes when or der was restored and Mr. Lodge announc ed : "The chair recognizes Gov. Roosevelt < f New York." Again the magic of a name sent the mul titude into convulsion of enthusiasm. All eyes were truned toward Roosevelt. He stepped out into the aisle and srole up the platform, looking neither to the light nor the left, and then turning and survey ing the sea of waving, cheering humanity, his face grimly set without a smile, he made no acknowledgments, no saluta tions to the plaudits, but like a hero re ceiving his due. calmly awaited the sub sidence of the tumu t. At last he waved his hand and at his bidding the demonstrat on came to an end He wore a black cutaway coat, dark striped trousers, a turn-down collar and Hue necktie A delegate’s badge in red. white and blue ribbon was the only bit of color he wore. .Us the Governor faced about cn the platform, a man with a camera planted the instrument directly in front of him. As Mr. Roosevelt saw it he said sharply "Taka that away; take it away." And a sergeant-at-arms rushed the man and his apparatus out of the aisle. Gov. Roosevelt** Speech. Then Gov. Roosevelt began his speech, speaking in a clear full voice. Gov. Roosevelt said: "Mr. Chairman: 1 rise to second the nomination of William McKinley. the President who has had to meet and solve problems more numerous and more im portant than any other President since the days of mighty Abraham Lincoln; the President under whose administra tion this country has attained a higher pitch of prosperity at home and honor abroad than ever before in its history. Four years ago the Republican party nominated William McKinley as its stan dard bearer in a political conflict of graver moment to the nation than any that had taken place since the close of the Civil War saw ua once more a re united country. The Republican party nominated him. but before (he campaign was many days old he had become the candidate, not only of all Republicans, but of all Americans who were both far sighted enough to see where the true in terests of the country lay and clear minded enough to he keenly sensitive to the taint of dishonor. President Mc- Kinley was triumphantly elected on cer tain distinct pledges and those pledges have been made more than good. We were then in a condition of industrial paralysis. The capitalist was plunged in ruin and disaster, the wage worker was on tho edge of actual want, the suc cess of our opponents would have meant not only immense aggravation of the ac tual physical distress, but also a stain on the nation’s honor, so deep that more than one generation would hava to pass before it would be effectually wiped out. We promised that if President McKinley were elected not only should the national honor be kept unstained at home and a bread, but that the mills and the work shops kep* oren the farmer have a mar ket for his goods, the merchant for his w ares, and the wage-earner should p os per as never before. ••We Kept Onr Word.” “Well, we kept our word. The oppor tunity has been given, and it has been seirftJ by American energy, thrift and bus'Yifsa enterprise. Bo it has been in for eign affairs. Four years ago the na'ion was uneasy because right at its doors an American island lay writhing in agony with the curse of worse than medieval tyranny and misrule. We had our Armen ia at our very doors, for the situation in i üba had grown so terrible and such that this nation could not refrain from inter ference and retain its own s?lf-respect. President McKinley turned to this duty as he had turned to others. He sought by every effort possible* to provide for Spain’s withdrawal from the island,whi h she was impotent longer to do aught than oppress. Then, when pacific means had faded and thtro remained the only alter native we waged the most righteous and brilliantly succcearsful fore gn war that any country has waged during the life time cf the present generation ‘This is what the nation has done dur ing the three years that have elapsed since we made McKinley Pres dent ; and ail this Is what he typifies and stands for. We here nominate him again and in No vember next, we shall elect him again, because it has been given to him to per sonify the cause of honor abroad and prosperity at home, of wise, legislation and straightforward administration. “Remember that admirable though our legislation has been during the past three years. It has been rendered possible and effective only because there was good ad ministration to back it. Wise laws are in valuable. but after all they are as not nec essary as wise and honest administration of the laws. We have at last put our financial system on a sound basis, but no possible financial legislation can save us from fearful and disastrous panic if we trust our finances to the management of any man who would be acceptable to the leaders and guides of the Democracy in its present spirit. No Secretary of the Treasury who would be acceptable to, or who could without loss of self-respect serve under the Populistic Democracy could avoid plunging this country beck into financial chaos. Until our opponents have explicitly and absolutely repudiated the principles which In *% they professed and the leaders who embody these prin ciples, their success means the undoing of the country. Nor have they any longer the excuse of being honest In their folly. They have raved, they have foamed nt the mouth in denunciation of trusts, and now In my own state their foremost party lend ers, Including the man before whom the others bow with bared head and trembling knees, have been discovered in a trust which really is of Infamous, and, perhaps, of criminal character; a trust in which these apostles of Democracy, these proph ets of the new dispensation, have sought to wring fortunes from the dire need of their poorer brethren. ) little one's arriv- B 9a A MOTHER'S B • i|>y/ FRYENK has done I ' a'.l this,and every B V • BI U I W woman in the R’j —B world ought to Bl a* knowaboutit.lt is 111 used externally.

Nomination Seconded. ■ "I rise to second the nomination of Will- I iam McKinley, because, with him as lead ! er. this country has trod the path of na tional greatness and prosperity with the strides of a giant, and because, under him we can and will once more and finally overthrow those whose success would mean for the nation, material disaster and moral disgrace. "We have nearly succeeded in bringing peace ond order to the Philippines. Wood, Taft and Allen, with subordinates chosen on grounds of merit and fitness alone, are evidence of the spirit and methods by which t l-ns nation mu-t Appr ach its new and serious duties. Contrast this wl;h what would be the fate of the islands, under the spoils system so brazenly advocated by our opponents in their last national platform. ’ The war still goes on because the al lies in this country of the bloody insur rectionary oligarchy, have taught their foolish dupes abroad to believe that, if the rebellion i? kept alive until next No vember. Democratic success at the polls here will be followed by the abandonment of the islands—that means their abandon ment to savages who would scramble for what we desert, until some powerful civ ilized nation stepped in to do what we would have shown ourselves unfit to per form. Our success in November means peace in the islands. The success of our political opponents means in an indefinite prolongation of misery and bloodshed. "We stand on the threshold of anew century, a century with the fate of the great nations of the earth. It rests with us now to decide whether, in the opening years of that century we shall march forward to fresh triumphs, or whether at the outset we shall deliberately cripple ourselves for the contest. Is America a weakling to shrink from the world work that must be done by the world Powers? No! the young giant of the West stands on a continent and clasps the crest of an ocean in either hand. Our nation, glorious in youth and strength looks into the fu> ture with fearless and eager eyes and re joices as a strong man to run a race. We don’*t stand in craven mood asking to be spared the task, cringing as we gaze on the contest. No! we challenge the proud privilege of doing the work that Provi dence allots us and we face the coming years high of heart and resolute of faith that our people be given the right to win such honor and renown .as has never yet been granted to the. people of mankind. ,w Some of Roosevelt’* Rallied. His sentences were delivered in a man ner that denoted careful s udy of each word. His arguments'ive style kept the audience en raptort with him, for he was given the closest attenron by the vast audience, in fact very much mere atten tion than had any other speaker. “It was not a g’eat war. It did not hive to be.” he said, speaking of the war with Spain, and then waited fr r the ripple of laughter which f 11 wed the declaration. “We have done so well that our oppo nents use it as an argument for turning us out.” he sail smiling and showing his and his audience responded with che°rs and laugh er. 11 s allusions to the ice trust calkd forth the heartiest ap plause with cries from the ga’l ris of ‘Hit tm again,” and “That’s rigtft, Ted dy." “1 pity the Democratic orator in" New’ York ji-ho mentions trusts,” he declared with uplifted hands, and the audience howled wi'h laughter and shook the floor with applause. “The insurrection in the Philippines goes on because the insurrectionary allies of the Tagals in the island of Luzon,” declared' the Governor, “have given the insurrection their moral if not material support.” When He Readied a C limax. He declared, with brilliant emphasis, that the success of the Republican party in November meant peace in the Philip pines, while the success of the opposition meant a prolongation of the struggle. The delegates and spectators rose almost as one man and cheered. After recounting the achievements of the United States in the far-off islands and presenting, in a sentence, the claims of this country upon the archipelago, Gov. Roosevelt demanded, amid thunderous applause; “Is America a weakling that it should shrink from the work of a great world Power? The giant of the West, like the gladiator of old. looks into the future with hope, with expectancy, with love of all our institutions have made dear to us.” (Tremendous applause.) In conclusion, Gov. Roosevelt declared the Republican party and the American people challenged the future, anil they were eager for the labor laid out for them, as if by Providence. The closing words of the Governor brought another demonstration, and for <i minute it seemed that the convention would go mad. and then and there make tw'o nominations instead of one. Plumes went up and standards again left their sockets to be waved on high. As the Governor left the platform, he waved i salutation to the moving throng, and one in particular toward the radiant face of his wife, sitting just outside the area of delegates. Gradually the convention came back to quiet, end the chairman recog nized Senator Thurston of Nebraska, for a (speech, seconding the nomination of the President. The Senator’s deep, orgatilike baritone reverberated through the structure, as easily distinguishable to the remotest cor ners as the strains of the bond. He pic tured the President as n soldier, on many hard fought fields, as a statesman in the hailn of Congress, and as President, di recting the destinies of a nation—our Pres ident now. our President to l>e again. Yerkcd of Kentucky. Senator Lodge then recognized John W. Yerkos of Kentucky, who arose to also second the nomination on behalf <*f the South. He asserted that no convention had ever been so unanimous for a man am was this for McKinley. Mr. Yerkes is h straight and tall Kentuckian, with a strong voice, and hie speech was heard ail over the hall. “In 1896, we gave you an old representa tive slave holding state. By so doing we removed one charge against our party, that it was sectional. The Ohio river was crossed; Republicanism marched south ward, nnd these (sce'iorml lines disappeared from the mop. We will do it again (Af>- plautse.) We will still show the people in the North and the South and the East, that Republicanism, to use language of our distinguished chairman, means action, and is always moving forward. “A Kentuckian, a lover of my native state, believing in the integrity and hon esty of her citizens, I have the fullest confidence in them; I believe they will make final response to right arguments, and that that response will be made at our polls next November, in . -cling elector** to vote for Pretdd* nt, William McKinley for re-election.” (Applause.) When Mr. Yerkos had concluded ho w s given a round of applause that ech <d and re-echoed through the great hall. Senator Hanna rose and cordially grasped his hand. .Speaker* Hail to Speak. Almost instantly from all parts of the hall came the cry. "Vote." "Vote," "Vote." Delegates and spectators were becoming uneasy. They wanted act.on, not oratory. Disregarding the call for a vote. Chair man Lodge recogniz- and George Knight, head of ihe California delegation. As he appeared upon the platform and addressed the convention his first sentence. ! insing through the great building like a trumpet call, caught the fancy of the essemb age and he was cheered enthusiastically. His humorous and pungent arraignment of the Democratic party for its attitude upon national issues provoked frequent laughter. "We all know the Democratic party," said he; "we ail have known if In the past, and we all know what it will be until the crack of doom. It never changes for the better or for. progress." He paid a brilliant tribute to his own state of California ond. discussing briefly the position of the Golden State and htr sister states on the beautiful Pacific as to the pre-eminent question of expansion, de clared that they ail were in harmonious accord with the administration of William McKinley. Monnt of Indiana. "Vote!" Y'ote!" came from the delegates as Mr. Knight concluded, but the chair man stilled the outcry and recognized Gov. Mount of Indiana, who. in behalf of the Hoosier State seconded the nomination of McKinley. It was a glowing eulogiuen to the stotesmar.-soldier President. It was apparent that the convention was eager for definite results, and a growing hum spread through the hall as Gov. Mount socke. Gov. James Mount of Indiana said in part: "Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Convention: I arise :o second the nomi nation of a man who has ably discharg ed every responsiblity :n peace and war; one who in the perilous crisis of the great civil conflict in this country, though but a mere youth, displayed the loyalty of a patriot and the courage of a hero. This man enlisted os a private soldier and fought in the front rank of battle until the Union was saved and honored peace secured. He is a statesman a? well as patriot, a creator of statutes as well as a defender of liberty. He became a leader in the Congress of the United States. He was chairman of the Ways and Means Committee and the distin guished author of the tariff law which bears his honored name. The anathemas of the Democratic party were showered upon that law and from the same source came direful prophesies that calamity would follow its adoption. On the con tary, however, the wisdom of that meas ure was speedily proclaimed through flaming furnaces and forges which illu minated the night and by new indus tries and expanded markets. I there fore take great pleasure in seconding the nomination of him who stands before the world clearheaded, cleanhanded, strong hearted—patriot. stateman and hero, a rpyical American, a Christian gentleman, William McKinley." The restive listeners broke in with many and morstrations and calls of "Vote.’' and rhairman Lodge was kept busy with his gavel trying to maintain sufficient order for the speaker to be heard. As he closed the convention again demanded a vote, and the cha rman announced that the ro 1 of s ates would be called for the vote on the nomination for President. The Vote tuooaneed. At 12:37 the vote began. The galleries were noticeably attentive, and there war* no unusual demonst)ation among the dele gates until York's vote was announc ed by Chairman Odell. This brought out a round of applause. When Pennsylvan ia’s vote was announced by Senator Quay many of the delegations arosqf and cheer ed. Some of the states were not content with casting their voice for McKin’ev, but the chairman announced the v< te which the candidate would receive in November. At the call of Haw'aii the delegations stood ad cheered the announcement of the new possession of its two vot-s for McKinley. The tally clerks quickly made the of flc'al summary, and handed it to t^e hair man. Mr. Lodge took the papr and, advancing to the front of he s‘ta?e said: • The total vote cast i- 93f. William Mc- Kinley has received 930 votes. It is a unanimous vote, and the cha’rman de clares that William McKin ey is your nominee for the presidency for the term beginning March 4, 1101.” Pandemonium Loose Again. Now again pandemonium brck loose in one. swelling chorus of enthusiasm for new' candidate. Up went the pumes and standards. Up stGod the great audknee, in n and women mingling their shouts and their f.antic and -men-traticn. The band played “Rally Round the Flag,” and the Hamilton Club of Chicago marched down the ais e, preceded by New York and followed I y Pennsylvania. Mr. Lodge warned che noisy and dem onstrative throngs that there was still vi tal business to bo done and announced that the call of states would proceed for nomi nations for the vice presidency. As the name of Alabama was called on the roll of states, for the nomination of candidates for Vice President, the an nouncement was made by the chairman of the delegation that Alabama would yield to lowa to present a candidate. Speech of Young of lown. Chairman Lodge then recognized Col. L-fe Young, one of the lowa delegates at large, and editor of the Des Moines Cap ital. Robust and vigorous in his physique an i in his mentality, Col. Young swung down the main aisle to the platform to do that whi h n single orator never before did in a Republi an national convention—with draw one strong and magnetic tnan bs a candidate and present the of another for the scoond office in the gift of the American people. He withdrew the name of Dolhver and offered that of Roosevelt. He said: “G< ntlemen of the Convention: T have listened with profound interest to the nu merous indi Aments pronounced against the Democratic party, and as an impar tial review of history I am compelled to confess that the indictments are all only too true. If I am to judge, however, by the enthusiasm of this hour, the Republi can Relief Committee eent out four years ago to tarry supplies and succor to the prostrate industries of the republic has returned to make formal report that the duty has been discharged. “1 could add nothing to this indictment, except to - ty that this unfortunate party through four years of legislative control had made it, up to 18%, impossible for an honest man to get into debt or to get out of it. (Laughter.) “But, my fellow citizens,you know my purpose, you know the heart of this con vention. The country never called for pa triotic sons from any given family but more were offered than there was room for on the enlistment roll. “When this convention and this great pa* tv tal’el for a cand'date for Vice President two voices responded, one from ■h Mis-iss - pni valley by birih. ano h r b 1 i\ing ntTe t<n tint adoption.

Young was in Cuba at the time Roosevelt led his gallant Rough Riders up Sari Juan Hill, and his reference to the Governor’s campaign was eloquent and touching. The Greatest Demonstration. The demonstration which followed the announcement by Col. Young of Gov. Roosevelt as the candidate of the young men of the country, who rep resented their desires and their ambitions, and embodied their patriot em and Amer icanism was not second to that accorded the President's noma The vast assemblage sprang to its feet and state emblems, pampas plumes, hand kerchiefs and hats fairly filled the air. The band in the main gallery began to play: "There’ll Bea Hot Time in the Old Town To-night," and to the inspiring strains the delegates began marching around the hall, filing past Gov. Roose velt as he sit with the New York delega tion. and extending to him their congrat u a ins.

It was an in spiring demonstration. Mrs. Rooseve t looked frown upon it from her position of vantage in the side gallery. She was pale, but appeared smiling and happy. The demonstration continued for six minutes and forty s cond.v during which time Gov. Roosevelt received the congratulations of h.s friends, locking the while like a bronze statue so imperturbable was he. The delegates still choked the aisles, grasping the Governor’s hand, and with difficulty the chairman restored quiet and recognized Butler Murray of Massachu setts, for a speech, seconding the nomi nation of Roosevelt. He epoke in behalf of "Old New' England," and his vigorous sentences elicited another demonstration for the Rough Rider candidate. After the speech of Mr. Murray of Mas sachusetts, Gen. James M. Ashton of Washington, was recognized, and he also seconded the nomination of Roosevelt. They Would Have Ptpcn. "Depew!” "Depew!” demanded the dele gates In tumultuous chorus, snd as they called the well known face and figure of the New York Senator emerged from his delegation, Gov. Roosevelt, himself tak ing him by the arm and urging him for ward to the platform. The benign face of the postprandial orator looked down on the people, and then, in his musical voice, he began a magnificent and impromptu tribute to the hero of the hour. He was in good humor as well as good voice, and his touch of jocosity In mentioning "Ted dy,” and the "gat there" qualftle* of young America, brought out a storm of mingled laughter and applause. He pic tured "Teddy" as the child of Fifth ave nue. the cultured product of Harvard, the cowboy of the plains, the vitalising force In marshaling the American ships to over whelm the Spaniards, the Impetuous lead er at Santiago and San Juan, and the idolized Governor of the Empire Slate. He pictured, too. the "dude” becoming a "cowboy." the "cowboy" becoming a sol dier. the eroldler becoming a hero, and the hero, blade in hand. In the press of bat tle, shouting: "Give 'em hell, boys!” When Depew sought to close there were demands of "Go on," and yielding to the clamor, he proceeded, dealing with Ihe glories of the porty. His sarcastic refer ences to the Kansas City Convention and to George Washington Aguinaldo brought him round after round of applause. He spoke of the "trust oratory" sure to be heard from the Bryan cohorts at Kansas City, and declared that when the hurrahs of the trust orators died awnv in that convention 11 would be found that the ice pitchers had broken through the force of the Ice trust ingredients within them. Mr. Depew told a story, anew one. he said, which had for its moral the fact that Mr. Bryan had been "body snatching," re viving the corpse of free silver at 16 to 1. Turning from humorous to serious themes, the orator recounted the glories of the ad: ministration already achieved, and those awaiting the union of two such incompara ble leaders, McKinley and Roosevelt. His closing period declaring Roosevelt's choice would be unanimous touched off a whirl of excitement. The, Wanted .he Vote. “Roosevelt!" "Teddy!" "Roosevelt!” f ame from all quarters of the hall. The Governor sat unmoved, fanning himself desperately, and shaking hts head nega tively .it the calls for his appearance. The Impatient audience colled for a vote, appreciating that there would be no other candidate. It took some minutes to restore order.

During the roll call, delegates and spec tators. realizing that tile convention's sc tion would be unanimous, ohatt-d and laughed untl the resultant of the no e was like the roar of a sullen sea on a rooky coast. At Ihe conclusion of the call Chairman bodge announced thnl Gov. Roosevelt Ist received K 9 votes, one delegate in the convention not voting. This delegate was Gov Roosevelt himself, who refrained from voting with the New York del-.*- l ion. Chairman Lodge's announcement that Gov. Roosevelt had been nominated for Vic President evoked a burst of (tpplauee h.)t fairly shook the great meol-glrdifd bull-ling to it* foundation. **virniMl % round lloonrvrlt. ,Jov Roosevelt, now nominated Vice President, was surrounded by delegates showering congratulations upon him. He blood in the middle aisle, the stern look of recent days having given way to an ex pansiva cmiie. The serious work of the convention was now practically over, and only a few de tails remained to be performed. A resolu tion by Gen. Grosvenor was agreed to for an official print of ihe convention proceed ings .and a reprint of the proceedings of four years ago. Another resolution em powered the National Committee to fill va cancies on the committee. On motion of Col. Dick, Senator Lodge was placed at the head of the committee to notify the President of his nomination and Senator Wolcott, at the head of the committee, to notify the vice presidential nominee. On motion of Senator Scott of West Virginia, George Wlswell of Milwaukee was unanimously elected sergeant-at-arms of the National Committee for the ensuing four years in place of H. L. Swords of New York, resigned. Resolutions of thanks to Mr. Lodge and to Mr. Wolcott for their able services as presiding officers were unanimously adopted, also thanks to Mayor Ashbridge of Philadelphia for the hospitality of the city, and to all officials of the convention. This closed the work, and at 2:14 p. m., on motion of Sereno Payne of New York, the Republican National Convention of IDDO adjourned sine die. A VERSATILE FELLOW. He Make* Direr* Invention* lint Aone Ever Become* Profitable. From the Omaha (Neb.) Bee. The appointment two weeks ago by Judge Dickinson of a receiver for the Omaha Gas Engine and Motor Company has brought to light anew Don Quixote in mechanics and a modem Baron Mun chausen In nearly everything else. Howard K. Clover is his name, or, as he delights to sign himself, "Lieut. How ard K. Clover. U. S. N." Ho is a char acter oo picturesque that his traits might inspire the pen of the novelist as well as the vigilance of the constabulary. Start ing out as a circus rider, he fell from a horse and eo injured himself that he was compelled to choose a more sedentary oc cupation. Since then he has invented a gas engine, an air mattress, a motor for bicycles, an automobile, a system of gas Illumination, a duplex typewriter, an en gine for an airship, and a process for making liquid air. It will be observed that most of his in ventions pertain to air or gas, and have gone up in wind, which many or may not be significant. He was blind for a year and had to be led about the streets by a boy. He resigned an imaginary commis sion in the United States navy in order to accept another under the Spanish gov ernment to superintend the construction of battleships. This, in brief, is the history of the man who furnished the brains for the organ ization of the Omaha Gas Engine and Motor Company, now defunct. He couid always find financial backing for his schemes, and. stranger still, it is said on competent authority that many of his schemes were feasible. His gas engine is reported by some to be of wonderful effi ciency. His motor for bicycles, also, is said by those interested in it to be prac ticable, though hardly filling a long-felt want. However this may be. none of his ventures has prospered from a counting room point of view. He is unlucky, evi dently not being a four-leaved clover. Physically considered. Clover is a mag nificent specimen of manhood—a broad shouldered six-footer, weighing more than ytO pounds. He is plump, round-faced, smooth-shaven, and has withal a sort of clerical bearing. It is this latter fact, perhaps, which he ha 9 to thank for his remarkable success in interesting capital in his erratic projects. The "Lieutenant" made his first appear ance in Omaha some twelve years ago. at which time he was employed in the Union Pacific headquarters. He remained (her* only about a year, when he was compell ed to retire, becoming totally blind from an affection of the optic nerves. This af fliction dtd not enjoin idleness, however. On the contrary, it stimulated his inven tive genius and encouraged him to go upon the marked with the first product of his ingenuity—a s>-ca’led “dupl x” rypewr’ter. He was ab> to get s?m? maney from several Omaha business men on rhe strength of thi*. The persons whom he interested went to the pains of employing a patent expert tto pr*p.ir* th° case, but for three months the expert was unable to get a glimpse of the inven tion. Clover finally admitted that he could not produce a working model. As the amount* collected had been email, the parties interested dropped the mat ter. In the meantime Clover, having recov ered his sight, set about ‘he invention of o gas engine. He in'eresied two lowa men and they organized the firm of Ja'-k- Fon, Clover & Grady, designated as "ma rine engine builders, Council Bluffs. la." They put in the money and he the ex perience. and at the end of three months it was the old story repeated—he had t e money and they the experience. Finally, the firm being threatened with immedi ate disruption, he took a sledge hammer and destr yed such of the completed en gines as w*re in sock, thereby relucing the assets of the concern 'o norhing. Just why he should have done this is a mat ter for conjecture. To ail sppearanccs there was madness in his method, but perhaps it w'as only the eccentricity of genius. His next plunge in o the commercial and manufacturing world was as the head of the "C’over Air Mattress Man ufacturing Company," whose headquar ters w r ere also in Council Bluffs. As in the former instance, he interested an lowa capitalist. They bought severa sewing machines and set a few girls to work miking air mattresses, but the ven ture was cf brief dutation. The a’r mat tress would not 1 old air. The cap - tails; lost heavily, and Clover crossed to this side of the tiver. One day shortly after Clover’s mattress scheme had gone up In the air. he. in company with another man. entered the office of a local patent attorney, and said he had invented anew system of go; il lumination for palace sleeping cars. The Pullman Palace Car Company, he said, had caused a car to be bat ked upon a siding in Council Bluffs for him to experi- ment on. "I was rcquestf'd to go to Council Bluffs," said the attorney, "to satisfy my self that everything was on the square, and there sure enough, was a paia?e car on the sWllng, It was looked, however, so we did not go In. I have since discov ered that all cars are backed upon that siding to be cleaned, so Clover simply pointed esit a cor that happened to be etadlng there, claiming It was there for his purpose. At that time his Inven tion was supposed to Ire an improvement on the Plntsch gas system, but it never motertaliaed, and after he had pinched a few dollars oui of his new backers it was dropped, and I heard of It no more ' A motor for bicycles next engaged the attention of the genius. In this enterprise he interested Prof, Ong of the Nebraska Business and Shorthand College, but the disciple of Pitman refused to be duped bv the Inventor and their association was of short duration. The device was pat ented, however, and It Is claimed, the patent Is now held by persons |q the Blast. While experimenting with thl motor three years ago Clover was arrested on the complaint of an associate, who charged some Irregularity In business matters, and the Inventor was lodged In Jail. It was Ids first and doubtless his only experience of this kind. but. ns In other emergencies, he was equal lo It. He worked the "Insan ity racket,” Scarcely had the door clang ed behind him when, to all appearances, he lieoame n harmless put pitiful lunatic, gibbering Incoherent sentences and leer ing at his attendants with a vacant slare, CASTOR IA For Infant* and Children.

CRAB ORCHARD WATER CO., Louisville. Ky. Whether or not this ruse begot clemency, is uncertain, but he was in jail only a short time, and upon being released -e --gained his mental balance quickly. Subdued, but not broken in spirit by his enforced retirement, Clover gave his atten tion to o gas engine and automobile enter prise, having secured financial backing from Dr. F. E. Coulter of Omaha. This was his last manufacturing venture. A company was organized and the nucleus of a plant was established, but the project was not a success. The affairs of the concern are now in the District Court. Shortly after the Spanish-American War broke out Clover blossomed forth as a full-fledged lieutenant in the United Stal a navy. Persons who were familinr w ,r h his erratic tendencies were disposed a scoff at this. Meeting him on the stre t. they would ask jeeringly if he was a lieu tenant in the hors-e rnarir.es. and if ha could row' across the river without getting sea sick, and the like. But Clover took it all good naturedly, and one day put his traducers to rout by appearing on the street in a naval uniform, shoulder straps and nil. v. A stenographer to w f hom he owed a debt of $63 wrote to the navy department and asktd that chat amount be withheld from his salary. In a few days a reply was received to the effect that no such name as Howard K. Clover appeared upon the records of the department, either in the volunteer or regular service. This letter was shown to Clover, but he was unabashed, and had a ready leply. "Why." said he, "I resigned my commis sion in the United States navy to accept one under the Spanish government to su perintend the construction of warships." About this time he collaborated w th a Missouri interior in the building of an airship. The Missourian was to con struct the mechanism and he wa- o fur nish the engine. They set the concern up one day and tried to fly it. but it h-d about as much buoyancy as a pile driver, which so disappointed the-man-who-had to-be-shown that he committed suicide. Clover about two weeks ago left the city. Fifth Fating Bird*. From the Spectator. Nearly all the "killing” of land animals takes place on the surface of the earth. Vtjry tew* birds e\ ' n ar ■ killed in the. air, xc pt by sportsmen, and by a few hawk*. In this country the mole, the shrew and occasionally the f< x and rat kill prey at a little distance below the surface. But iho ocean is foraged and ravaged in all its coast watf s from surface to sea bottom by fifty species of aquatic moles, varying in size from the seal to the sea parrots. <wift, active and voracious creature*, wh ch abandon the light and lend and air temporarily, or for the greater part of thrir lives, and incessantly burrow’ in tild nerps in pursuit of thp fish. No form cf life escapes them. If any sea creatur'j could hop-* to avoid the creatures of earth and air ii would be the shellfish, great and small, firmly anchored to the rock* on the s a bottom, and often protected by sh 11s of such flinty hardness that no bird and 1 easts could >e supposed capab • of crushing them, even if thfy worked above water.

Yet they will fish and f ed f< r hours in the roughest weather, devouring their food deep down below, where the surface disturbance reaches them not. and only r.-ing for a mcm ;it to take breath before descending again to their submarine dinner table.

The confidence inspired by the presenc® of other animals, together with the satis faction of feeling n hand on the rein, ren ders the horse utterly impervious to all fear, and. once incited by the battle fury, it can be made to charge into certain death. Should the rider become wounded and fail from the saddle, the charger con tinues to retain its place in the ranks, and * yen when wounded, if nut brought to the ground, wfli not swerve from its place. To Illustrate ihe callous feeling these ani mals have under lire, a. case which hap pened at laidysmith during the siege may be c ited. A farrier sergeant was engaged in shoeing an officer’s horse in the open ground behind the stables of a hotel, and had already put one or two nails in the shoe when n shell came screaming through the air. The next moment the missile burst five or rix yards away from where the serge int end the horse were standing, and the splinters Mew around loth. bur failed to touch either. When the smoke hnd cleared the horse was to bo seen with Its foot still In the man’s apron, quite undisturbed by the incident. —During the twelve months ended Ma-* 31, 1X99, 35,51 C vessels, with an aggreg . tonnage of 3,117.8i0, passed through • Baltic canal.
