1 organized under Woodruff a corps of about 30 traveling; agentsi Each man knew only his own duties, knew nothing of the general plan, not even that there was a general plan. Each was a trained political worker, a personal retainer of ours. I gave them their instructions; Woodruff equipped them with the necessary cash. During the next five month3 they were incessantly on the go dealing with our party's western machines where they could: settisg up rival machines in promising localities where Goodrich controlled the regular machines; using money here, diplomacy there, both Tender, promises of patronage everywhere. Such was my department of secrecy. At the head of my department of publicity I put De Milt, a sort of cousin of Burbanfc's and a newspaper man. He attended to the news agencies, lie and three assistants wrote each week many columns of "boom matter, all of which was carefully revised by Burbank himself before it went out as "syndicate letters." If Goodrich hadn't been ignorant of conditions west of the Allegbanies and confident that his will was law, he would have scented out this department of publicity of mine, and so would have seen into my "flotation." But he knew nothing beyond his routine. I once asked him how many country newspapers there were In the United States, and he said: "Oh. I don't know. Perhaps 3,000 or 4,000." Even had I enlightened him to the extent of telling him that there "were about five times that number. "Senator, This Burbank Nonsense Has Gone Far Enough." lie would have profited nothing. Had he been able- to see the importance of such a fact to capable political management, he would have learned it long before through years of constant use of the easiest avenue into the heart of the people. He did not wake up to adequate action until the fourth of that group of states whose delegations to our national conventions were habitually bought and sold, broke its agreement with him and 1 instructed its delegation to vote for Burbank. By the time he had a corps of agents in those states. Doc. Woodruff had "acquired" more than a hundred deleKates. Goodrich was working only through the regular machinery of the party and was fighting against a widespread feeling t that Cromwell shouldn't, and probably couldn't, be elected; we, on the other hand, were manufacturing presidential sentiment for a candidate who was already popular. Nor had Goodrich much advantage over us with the regular . machines anywhere except in the oast. Just as I was congratulating myself that nothing could happen to prevent our triumph at the convention. Roebuck telegraphed me to come to Chicago. I found with him in the sitting-room of his suite in the Auditorium Annex. Partridge and Granby, next to him the most important members of my combine, since they were the only ones who had interests that extended into many states. It was after an uneasy silence that Granby, the uncouth one of the three, said: "Senator, we brought you here to tell you this Burbank nonsense has gone far enough." CHAFrR XV. Mutiny. It was all I could do not to show rnr astonishment and sudden fury. "I don't understand," said I, in a tone which I somehow managed to keep down to tranquil inquiry. But I did understand. It instantly came to me that the three had been brought Into line for Cromwell by their powerful business associates in Wall street, probably by the great bankers 1 who loaned them money. Swift upon the surge of anger I had suppressed before it flamed at the surface came a surge of triumph which I also suppressed. I had often wished, perhaps as a matter of personal pride, just this opportunity; and here it was!, 'Cromwell must be nominated." said Granbv. In his insolent tone Trade Mak Free Sample.

AirfCB or THCOST. TffJ?0iG. tc. had but two tones the "insolent and the cringing. "He's safe and sound. Burbank isn't trusted in the east. And we didn't like his conduct last year. He caters to the demagogues." Roebuck, through his liking for me, I imagine, rather than through refined instinct, now began to speak, thinly disguising his orders as requests. I waited until he had talked himself out. I waited with the same air of calm attention until Partridge had given roe his jerky variation. I waited, still apparently calm, until the silence must have been extremely uncomfortable for them. I waited until Granby said sharply. "Then it is settled?" "Yes," said I, keeping all emotion out of my face and voice. "It is settled. Ex-Gov. Burbank is to be nominated. I am at a loss to account for thi3 outbreak. However, I shall at once take measures to prevent its occurring again. Good day." And I was gone straight to the train. I did not pause at Fredonia but went on to the capital. The next morning I had the legislature and the attorney general at work demolishing Granby's business in my state for I had selected him to make an example of, incidentally because he had insulted me, but chiefly because he was the most notorious of my ten. was about the greediest and cruelest "robber baron" in the west. My legislature was to revoke his charter; my attorney general was to enforce upon him the laws I had put on the statute books against just such emergencies. And it had never entered their swollen heads that I might have taken these precautions that are in the primer of polSlical management. My th:9 mutineers pursued me to the capftal, jnissed me, were standing breathless at 'the door of my house near Fredonia on the morning of the third day. I refused to be seen until the afternoon of the fourth day, and then I forbade Granby. But when I descended to the reception-room he rushed at me, tried to take my hand, pouring out a stream of sickening apologies. I rang the bell. When a servant appeared, I said: "Show this man the door." Granby turned white and, after a long look at my face, said in a broken voice to Roebuck: "For God's sake, don't go back on me, Mr. Roebuck. Do what you can for me." As the curtain dropped behind him, I looked expectantly at Roebuck, sweating with fright for his imperiled millions. Probably his mental state can" be fully appreciated only by a man who has also felt the dread of losing his wealth upon which he is wholly dependent for courage, respect and self-respect. "Don't misunderstand me, Harvey." he began to p,lead. forgetting that there was anybody else to save besides himself. "I didn't mean " "What did you mean?" I interrupted, my tone ominously quiet. "We didn't intend " began Partridge. "What did you intend?" I interrupted, as quietly as before. They looked nervously each at the other, then at me. "If you think Burbank's the man," Roebuck began again, "why, you may go ahead " There burst in me such a storm of anger that I dared not speak until I could control and aim the explosion. Partridge saw how, and how seriously, Roebuck had blundered. He thrust him aside and faced me. "What's the use of beating around the bush?" he said, bluntly. "We've made damn fools of ourselves, senator. We thought we had the whip. We see we haven't. We're mighty sorry we didn't do a little thinking before Roebuck sent that telegram. We hope you'll let us off a3 easy as you can, and we promise not to meddle in your business again and you can bet your life we'll keep our promise." "I think you will," said I. "I am a man of my word," said he. "And so is Roebuck." "Oh, I don't mean that," was my answer. "I mean, when the Granby object-lesson in the stupidity of preraa ture ingratitude Is complete, you shan't be able to forget it." They drifted gloomily in the curren' of their unpleasant thoughts; ther each took a turn at wringing my hand I invited them up to my sitting-roorr where we smoked and talked arnica "jly for a couple of hours. It woul have amused the thousands of en oioyes and dependents over whoi these two lorded it arrogantly to hav heard with what care they weigheheir timid words, how nervous the vere leat they should give me fres )rovocation. As they were leavin: "loebuck said earnestly: "Isn't thcr mything I can do for you. Harvey?"' 'Why. yes," said I. "Give out a statement next Sunday in Chicago for the Monday morning papers in dorsing Cromwell's candidacy. Say you and all your associates are enthusiastic for it because his election would give the large enterprises that have been the object of demagogic attack a sense of security for at least four . years more." He thought I was joking him, being unable to believe me so lacking in judgment as to fail to realize what a profound Impression in Cromwell's favor such a statement from the great Roebuck would -produce. I wrote and mailed him an interview with himself the following day; he gave it out as I had requested. It got me Burbank delegations in Illinois, South Dakota and Oregon the same week.

CALLED FOR MONEY; PAYMENT DELAYED City Not in Position to Pay the Hospital $7,500 on Such A . Short Notice. CONDITION NOT THE BEST.

EVIDENT THAT IT WILL BE NECESSARY TO MAKE SOME TEMPORARY LOANS IN ORDER TO MEET THE EXPENSES. Adam H. Bartel, treasurer of Reid Memorial hospital, appeared before City Controller Webster Parry Tuesday to secure the S7,o00 appropriated by council Monday night for the maintenance of the hospital. Mr. Bartel did not secure the money but Mr. Parry did not refuse payment, stating that he would try to have a check for that amount ready by Thursday, of this week. x At the present time the city is fin-

anciaiiy embarrassed ana nau Mr. Bar-jwiH be found among the standard setel insisted on the payment of the j lections and of the most pleasing naentire amount voted to the hospital it!tUre. The list is as follows: Wednesis probable that the municipal purse j day night, "The Tie That Binds"; would have been nearly drained. Mr. j Thursday afternoon, "The Opera SingParry explained to Mr. Bartel that the j er"; Thursday night, "Dad in Har-

tax collections for last month were very small and consequently the city treasury is in bad condition. Mr. Parry-stated Tuesday that he could not then pay over the $7,500 due the hospital but that he would try to arrange matters so that the payment could be made Thursday. Loans Will be Necessary. It is certain that the city will have to float some temporary loans in the near future to meet some of its obligations. A few items of expense that the city will soon be called upon to meet follow: Improvements at municipal plant $20,000. West Second street improvements $7,000. Market house improvements $1, 500. Reid Memorial hospital $7,500. Some time ago $20,000 was appropriated for improvements at West Sec ond street but the city later became j hard up and had to draw $7,000. from I this -fund. It is now up toocouneil to replace this amount as the work on improvements at West Second street may start soon. Late this spring the I work on building the $50,000 sewer in West Richmond south of Main street will start and the city will have to shoulder its share of this expense.

Green Sickness or Chlorosis Just at the threshold of womanhood, that trying period when the whole system is undergoing- a. complete change, many a girl falls a victim of chlorosis or green sickness. Her disposition changes and she becomes morose, despondent and , melancholy. The appetite is fickle, digestion Is imperfect, and weariness and fatigue ere experienced on slight exertion. Chlorosis is much like anaemia because it arises from poor quality of blood. Iron and such other restoratives and blood builders as are combined in Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Pills are demanded by the system. The regular and persistent use of Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Pills cannot fail to benefit any girl or young woman rufferihg from chlorosis, anaemia or weakness and Irregularities which result from poor blood and exhausted nerves. Dr. A. W.

MUNCIE POINTS THE WAY Plan to Increase Art Association Membership.

RICHMOND SHOULD TRY IT. The Muncie Art association has planned a campaign for the purpose of increasing the membership. Although already more than one thousand belong to the organization, it is the desire of the directors to materially increase the number. In order to do this, the city has been divided into thirty-two sections and to each of these sections there has been appointed a committee on membership. The members of the committee will not make a house to house canvas, but they will be expected to enter into the active campaign for new members. Plans are now being perfected by the association, which will make the coming art exhibit one of the most complete in the history of the city. The association of Richmond has joined with the local organization in an attempt to secure the best in art. The exhibits in the two cities will be held on close dates, which will insure the exhibition of pictures and art works that could not be secured for either of the places singlv.
