TOY SHOP Glffl! BY BOYVILLE TilADE BIG HIT
The, Top Shop," given under the auspices of the eltliens of Boyville at the Tow! Opera Hows last night, was a great success. It was a success as an entertainment and as a financial venture for the rewd whioh witnessed the show was a good one and packed the house. "The Toy Shop" was a eonjrlomeratlen of drills, sonars, dialogues and othfeatures and afforded great amusement for those who went to see It. One of the features of the entertainment was the athletics drills that the
boys were put through by Physical I
To give Individual mention to all of those, who merited it would take up too much space, but it should suffice to say hat with one exception there was not a hitch in the affair and the entertainment Is a oredlt to Boyville. OMBr lralsrta, ...The one exception was the case of a boy, whose name could not be learned, who was overcome by the stuffy air, the excitement or for some other reason and fainted. He fell on the stage, but finally managed to struggle to his feet and made his . way behind the
scenes.
r plans may tumble like a tower. of cards. Apd, Incidentally, the covered jealously between the two may crop out as well as Knotts' -old emnlty of Rhode. Crollus is bringing Into play some of the tactics he used when he made his spectacular campaign for the democratic nomination for governor of Illinois, won it, and then turned it down merely for the sake of showing that he had the strategy to win it.
He was promptly revived and later
Director Stewart of the Hammond ! seemed none the worse for his exneri-
Athletlc association. The drills andjence. The money that the citizens of tumbling were appreciated by the audi-j Boyville will clear from the venture enoa. - t I will make it well worth their while.

The antl-1aggart people concluded some time ago that they could not really sufficiently to elect an opposition candidate for chairman, but they propose to hold on to their position for the good it may. do them in the future. This rivalry, it is understood, will be carried into the fight for the selection of delegates to the state convention and may lead to some unpleasant predicaments when it comes time to nominate candidates. With a large antl-Taggart delegation from Marion county as a neucleus, it is explained, a large force could be rallied to carry Its own ideas
for a total of 1747 delegates. The republican state convetion will have 1,745 delegates. The apportionment to the demoeratic convention is based on the vote for Governor Marshall In the last election, and the republican apportionment is based on the vote for Wifield T. Durbin for presidential elector. The democratic apportionment shows the following counties to have a right to ehoose more than twenty delegates for the state convention: Allen, 6; Cass, 21; Delaware, 81; Elkhart. 30; Floyd, 21; Grant, 89; Greene, SI; Knox, 26; Lake, SO; Laporte. 29; Madison, 48; Marlon, 183; Miami, 21; Montgomery, 22; Shelby, 21; St. Joseph,
