General Dawes has been weeing calamity ami chaos ever since the campaign opened, now Walb is seeing sheets, shrouds and ghosts. Or perhaps Mr. Walb had Just seen the great parade of colored voters under the banner. "Lincoln is not running this year.” "This morning, two Republicans —old line Republicans—took the subject up with me and asked whether lt was my judgment that Mr. Walb was really looking forward to a vai inc.y in the senatorship held by Kenator Watson. I told them 1 had no advice on the subject. Then they asked If there were to be a vacancy in the case of Mr. Watson, what was my opinion as to whom Mr. Jackson would appoint, In the event of his election to the gijvernorshir. I told them that I was not fully enough In the confidences of the Republican machine of Indiana to answer that question, and in the course of our conversation, I learned that these two old line Republicans were very much concerned as to whether Mr. Jackson, should he be chosen Governor, and In the event of Watson's needing the services of a sexton before the expiration of hla term, would fill the vacancy by the appointment of Postmaster General New or ex-Senator Beveridge. Too Deep for Him

C. Stephenson, ‘the old man.’ Thereupon, tiie atmosphere became so surcharged with chaos and calamity that I withdrew from the conference, leaving my three friends of the different branches of the opposing party to determine for themselves whom Jackson would really appoint, in the event he had the power. “Os course, I have no fears, but that I personally should get along very agreeably with whosoever the appointee might be, but imagine what would happen to the Republican party!” Tank Wagon Prices (Gasoline prices do not include State tax of 2c a gallon.)

LIFE STORIES OF HUMAN DERELICTS (Continued From Page 1) money and spent or gambled every cent of lt away. I rarely rode a race without placing a bet on my own horse, if I thought I had a ghost of a chance, and generally on another horse or two. Won on 100 to t Shot I remember one time I cleaned up $2,500 on a 100 to 1 shot at a New Jersey track. I immediately made a visit to England and spent lt all in five weeks there. If I only had that money now But I was young and husky, and fairly handsome as boys go. We would spend the winter in New York, and though that was more than fifty years ago, many a place never closed all night long. Wine, women and song, that was my life, and back to the tracks to pick up some more money. Money meant one thing, a good time and I have sure had it in my time. I was never married, because I always had too many feminine friends w’ho lavished their kisses and took my cash. I never had asense, or I would have shaved a little money hero and there. I would have laughed at any one who suggested such a thing, and called him an old fool. I grew too heavy to ride and started training horses. T remember there was a boy who worked under me. His job was to boil mash for the weaning colts, and do other such tasks. He saved every penny he could and worked hard. Now he is worth more than a hundred thousand dollars. I used to give him orders when I was earning far more than he was. He’s Unrepentant Then I grew old. I was rather broken up from falls I had received, and had other ailments peculiar to horseback riders. I was 70 years old. and they sent me to this place. I had been out at the State fairground for several years. My brother died a while back. He was a graduate of Oxford University, England, and head of a private grammar school. I had the same chance, but I despised education until too late. That’s how I got into the poorhouse. But 1 am satisfied I have lived. If 1 had a million dollars what, else could I do, in my own mansion l can't do here? I eat—such as it is I sleep when I am sleepy. I think of the past. I hitch around on this cane. What else can an old crippled man do. anyway? Yon only have chance —one time to try life in, son, and I chose my path, though I did it in ignorance.
