“That simple little frock Mrs. Smythe
wore last night looked a great deal
better than that elaborate gown of
yours.”
"Of course it did, my dear," replied
his wife sweetly. "That simple little
frock, as you call it, cost three hun¬

hundred and fifty.”
“T/ell, for the love of Mike, go out

that each had forgotten what it was
about originally and they were wholly
oblivious of the gathering crowd until
an urban and genteel person in a
frock coat put in.
"Come, come, my min,” he said,
gently plucking Casey by the sleeve.
“You don’t want to fight; I can tell
it by your looks. Your face is too be¬

DEMOCRATS CHOOSE WILSON AND
MARS HALL AS T HEIR LEADERS
Ticket Named a Few Minutes Before Midnight on Thursday,
Avoiding the Friday “Hoodoo'’—Delegates Evince Intense
Enthusiasm as the Result Is Announced—Pres¬
ident at Once Notified,
St. Louis.—Woodrow Wilson and
Thomas Iiiley Marshall were nominat¬
ed Just before midnight June 15. Both
nominations were made by acclama¬
tion.
President Wilson’s nomination came
at 33:54 and that of Vice-President
Marshall at 11:58.
Fred B. Lynch of Minnesota noti¬
fied the White House by telephone at
the instant of the nomination. A tele¬
phone wire that extended into the
speaker's stand was connected direct
with the White House with a mega¬
phone attached to the receiver.
In a lightning sprint Mr. Mar¬
shall made a record. Senator Kern
was due for a nominating speech.
Sensing the approaching midnight he
\ threw Ills eulogy on the floor and sim
; ply said: “I renomate Thomas Riley
Marshall.” Somebody seconded. Some¬
body moved to make it by acclamation.
And it was done, the whole job of
Dominating a vice presidential candi¬
date taking up just 180 seconds.
Friday Superstition Averted.
Thus the ancient superstition
against Friday nominations was avert¬
ed. although President Wilson had
made It known that he regards Friday
as his “lucky day.”
Dramatic scenes attended the nam¬
ing of the ticket William Jennings
Bryan in an impassioned panygeric
placed his O. K. upon the president and
his administration.
The Nebraskan, who resigned from
the cabinet, was not a delegate to the
convention, but he was called to the
platform by unanimous consent He
lauded Wilson to the skies for keeping
the nation out of war, landed the Wil¬
son Mexican policy and extolled the
economic legislation from tariff to cur¬
rency act
Bryan at times spoke under the
strain of emotion. It was the first
convention in 20 years in which he has
not been an active figure, but the ova¬
tion and the outbursts that punctuated
his remarks indicated that he is still
a powerful force behind the scenes of
the party he once dominated.
Wescott Names Wilson.
The Nebraskan through with his
speech, John W. Wescott of New Jer¬
sey placed Mr. Wilson In nomination.
As the time grew short Wescott, cut¬
ting short his peroration, shouted:
“I nominate Woodrow Wilson.”
Then followed a great demonstra¬
tion that lasted 40 minutes. Delegates
and galleries were roused to a high
pitch of enthusiasm and emotionalism.
They yelled and shouted and paraded
and sang. Some of them wept in an
ecstac-y of feeling.
Harmon Seconds Wilson.
Fortner Governor Judson Harmon of
Ohio, who was a candidate for the
presidential nomination at Baltimore
four years a go. made the first second¬
ing speech for President Wilson.
The next was by Gov. H. C. Stuart
of Virginia.
Senator Hughes of New Jersey
moved that the rules be suspended
and the nomination made by acclama

fet. Louis.-—-National Democratic
Chairman McCombs is the most nerv¬
ous man in politics. When be isn’t
beating a tattoo, rubbing his hands,
slapping liis knee, walking around,
scratching his chin or twiddling bis
thumbs, he s doing something else of
the same som At the opening ses¬
sion of the convention he sat at the
edge of the platform. A notch lower
down act Col. Robert Ewing, an ex¬
ceedingly rotund and egg-pated gentle¬
man from Louisiana. McCombs was
tion. The motion was carried with a
tremendous roar.
The only objection came from Rob¬
ert E. Burke of Chicago, the only anti
W iison delegate in the convention. He
shouted “No.”
■Senator James declared President
Wilson nominated at 11:52 p. in.
Kern Names Marshall.
Senator John W. Kern of Indiana
then was recognized. He moved that
the nomination of Vice President Mar¬
shall be made by acclamation. No
nominating speech was made.
Vice FTesident Marshall was de
dared nominated four minutes after
the nomination of President Wilson.
Numerous seconding speeches which
had been prepared were not made.
Lewis’ Speech His Shortest
Senator James Hamilton Lewis of
Illinois was invited to the platform to
make an addess at 12:12 a. m. “I do
not like to impose upon your time,”
said Senator Lewis. "I beg yon will
excuse me and I express my sincere
thanks.”
It was the shortest speech of bis
career.
Senator Hughes reported to the con¬
vention that the resolution committee
had failed to complete its work on
the platform. The convention then
adjourned at 12:32 a. m. until eleven
o'clock Friday morning.
Forty-six minutes of sheer enthu¬
siasm and emotion followed the nam¬
ing of President Wilson. The minute
Mr. Westcott had yielded to the ad¬
jurations of his audience and had spo¬
ken the name “Woodrow Wilson,” the
galleries and the delegates were on
their feet.
An immense oil painting of the presi¬
dent was dropped from the gallery
back of the speakers’ stand. It ex¬
cited the gathering almost to the point
of frenzy. Georgia bore down the
aisle a banner—“Wilson : Dixie's gift
to the nation."
The band blared and thumped out
“America” and “Dixie” while thp great
pit. a crater of eruptive humanity,
let out its collective lungs and throats
to capacity.
Bryan Lauds Wilson.
Bryan in his laudation of Wilson
and his policies dwelt on the possibili¬
ties of America as negotiator of peace
in Europe.
“I stand with the Democrats of the
nation to give Woodrow Wilson a
chance to be that man,” shouted
Bryan, in conclusion, and the hall
echoed with cheering.
Details of the Night Session.
St. Louis.—IV hile the convention
was assembling for the night session
to nominate President Wilson' it be¬
came known the Nebraska delegation
planned to withdraw the vice presi¬
dency candidacy of Governor More
bend.
Before the convention was called to
order the Coliseum was so full that
the fire department took charge of the
entrances and permitted no more to
come in. William J. Bryan was
busily engaged listening to Governor
Glynn's keynote notes. As usual, he
was expressing his nervousness with
his fingers. Colonel Ewing leaped up
and stage-whispered, “If you don’t quit
rattling your fingers on the top of my
head I won't be able to near a word
that's said.”
Not Dodging. j
”1 suppose you could manage the af¬
fairs of the nation in a way that would j
be universally satisfactory.” i
"I don t say that,” replied Senator i
stopped at the door. Senator James
learned of the Nebraskan’s plight and
rescued him. Then the Nebraskan got
his usual uproarious reception.
Chairman James rapped the conven¬
tion order. ' ~ ;
to ,
Rev. W. J. Hardesty, chaplain of
the Missouri senate, offered prayer.
Senator Thompson then moved a
suspension of the rules to permit Mr.
Bryan to speak. When the motion
was put there were some "Noes." but
the chairman ruled two-thirds had
voted in favor.
Senator James- 'Introduced Mr.
Bryan as "one of the leading citizens
of the world and America's greatest
Democrat.”
In spite of the distracting influence
of the mob at the doors and the laughs
that rose occasionally when a bedrag¬
gled leader finally forced his way into
the convention hall Mr. Brjran held
his audience.
Applause was frequent and thunder¬
ous. He spoke for forty-five minutes,
finishing at 10:07.
Glynrt Is the Keynoter. and*
In a hall gay with flags bunting
and with pictures of party leaders,
past and, present looking down upon
them from medallions around the bal¬
cony, the delegates to the Democratic
national convention assembled on
scheduled time Wednesday. The pro¬
ceedings were formally started when
William F. McCombs, chairman of the
national committee, ascended the plat¬
form and rapped for order. He incited
the first burst of enthusiasm of the
convention when, in a short address in¬
troducing the temporary chairman, he
predicted victory for the party in the
fall.
The keynote speech was delivered
by former Gov. Martin H. Glynn of
New York, the temporary chairman,
ne was frequently interrupted by ap¬
plause when some point in his speech
stirred the enthusiasm of the -dele¬
gates. His eulogy of President Wilson
started the biggest demonstration of
the day. Following Governor Glynn’s
speech, committees on credentials, per¬
manent organization, rules, and resolu¬
tions were announced, and that day’s
work was done.
James Permanent Chairman.
The delegates were a little slow in
assembling for Thursday’s session, and
it was almost noon when Temporary
Chairman Giynn called the convention
to order. Permanent Chairman Oilie
James was escorted to the chair and
introduced. He immediately launched
into his address. He lauded the presi¬
dent and defended bis policies, partic¬
ularly in regard to the controversy
with Germany over the submarine
warfare -'and < -pur relations with
Mexico. An enthusiastic demonstra¬
tion greeted his praise of President
Wilson, which lasted more than twenty
minutes. At the close of Chairman
James’ speech the convention took a
recess until nine o’clock in the eve¬
ning.
Before the nominating speeches be¬
gan at the evening session the Demo¬
crats indulged in a love feast in which
the advent of harmony in their ranks
was celebrated.
Wilson Praised by Bryan.
Mr. Bryan was cheered enthusi¬
astically as he entered the press sec

tion with Mrs. Bryan shortly after
nine o’clock. A few minutes later,
upon the motion of Senator Thompson
of Kansas, the convention suspended
the rules amid tumultuous good feeling
and invited Mr. Bry^n to the rostrum.
A committee conducted Mr. BryaD
amid wild cheering to the side of
Chairman James.
Mr. Bryan launched into a speech
