OFF FOR BALTIMORE SUNDAY

F. M. WaISIIIME.P.NMIMWW Leavefor National Convention A DELIGHTFUL TRIP EXPECTED

As Well As Attending the Greatest i Convention In the History of the Democratic Party—Welsh Will Outfit In Indianapolis. Frank Welsh was in from Jordan tp., Monday, and in conversa- * tion with him we were astonished to learn that he had not as yet' ordered a plug hat and gold-headed' cane to wear to the democratic na-' tional convention next week, at' which he is assistant doorkeeper, j He thought he could get these accessories after reaching Indiaeapolis, to which place he will go Sunday morning and join the crowd who will leave Sunday on two special trains for the convention city,* In reply to the suggestion that it* would probably be a pretty swift crowd to travel with and that it might be a good idea for him to ! travel about this week a little and' visit Lafayette, Cedar Lake, Ham-' mond and Chicago, Frank said he! wouldn’t do that as he wanted to* get real dry so it would take a' long time for him to soak up. The two special trains, one called “The Marshall for President”! special, and the other “The Indiana Democratic Club” special, will j leave Indianapolis Sunday afternoon over the Big Four and B. & O. 1 railroad, stopping in Cincinnati for' supper, and leaving there Sunday' night over the Chesapeake & Ohio road, the great scenic route, for Baltimore. They will breakfast at i White Sulphur Springs, West Vo. I They will pass through and over the Alleghany Mountains in daylight, White Sulphur Springs being this side of the Alleghanies. (This is the, route The Democrat’s party took from Washington to Cincinnati on their eastern trip last year, and it is a route of great scenic beauty.) The special train will reach .Baltimore Monday afternoon. Returning home they will not come as a party but as individuals, and many will take in Washington and go via boat down the Potomac rivet and Chesapeake Bay to Old Point Comfort and Xorfolk, Va., and thence via ocean steamship to New York City, up the Hudson to Albany, and thence to Buffalo and Xiagara Falls (also a part of The Democrat party’s trip) and so on back home. The special Pullman trains will be of the best and provided with dining and caLe cars, so our democratic brothers Honan and Welsh will travel in comfort and style, providing the ice water doesn’t give out between stops. ' It is a dandy trip all right, all i right, and we don’t blame those | old money-bags, Welsh and Honan, ; for taking it in;
