JACK POT SQUADS" AND "BATHROOM BRIGADES" ARE BITTER. LY ARRAIGNED HONEST MEN ARE DEMANDED.
Lincoln, 111., July 21. Democratic assemblymen who voted for William Loiimer for United States senator were read out of the party at a "house cleaning' conference of down state democrats. Their acts were denounced and repudiated; the conference washed Its hands of all responsibility for the "half-breed" democrats. In vehement speech Roger C. Sullivan was treated to a stinging verbal rastlgation as the power In control of the state organisation. The conference Issued an appeal to the voters proclaiming that the first Step In purifying the legislature Is to purge the party of the lawmakers who voted for Lorlmer. The democrats who participated In the conference represented 20 senatorial districts, reaching from Chicago to Cairo. The object of the gathering was to discuss methods for redeeming the general assembly and to urge upon democratic voters the necessity of scourging from the party the "bathroom brigades" and - the jack pot quads,' and of "picking clean, honest and incorruptible legislators in the September primaries. Stern and Uncompromising. The resolutions adopted by the conference were stern and uncompromising. Ai originally framed by the promoters of the conference the resolutions denounced as "grafters" all democratic legislators who voted for Senator Lorlmer, but, in committee, they were toned down, and the condemnation of Lortmerlsm was put into a paragraph separate and distinct from the lluslom to "boodllng." The speeches were passionate and fiery. The sensational feature of the addresses was contributed by Raymond Robins, of Chicago, settlement worker and former member of the Chicago Board of Education. . In half an hour's talk, that was punctuated with , with vociferous applause at frequent Intervals, Mr. RobIns assailed Senator Lorlmer and Roger C. Sullivan. . "Why Is it that the democratic party was turned over to a bunch of thieves to be handled with 'jack pots' and to be sold out?" he cried, following up the query with an attack upon Roger C. Sullivan. Den. F. Caldwell, of Chatham, former : congressman, who was elected president of the "house cleaning" gathering, confined himself to an attack upon the democratic members of the bi-partisan alliances. Against Them For All Time. "So long as I live," he shouted, never, under any circumstances, will I vote for 'any roan, democrat or republican, who voted for William Lorlmer or elected him to the United States senate!" , Throughout the speeches ran a note of warning to members of the party that, unless the legislature is regenerated at the next elections, the citizenship of Illinois will turn to the socialist party for relief. In seeking for remedies for the conditions in the assembly the conference followed the lead of the recent Peoria good government conference and urged upon the voters a constitutional amendment providing for the Initiative and referendum. TURN OVER TIME When Nature Hints About the Food. When there's no relish to any food and all that one eats doesn't seem to do any good then Is the time to make a turn over in the diet, for that's Nature's way of dropping a hint that the food Isn't the kind required. "For a number of years I followed railroad work, much of It being office Vork of a trying nature. Meal times were our busiest and eating too much and too quickly of food such as is commonly served In hotels and restaurants, these , together with the sedentary habits were not long In giving me dyspepsia and stomach trouble which reduced my weight from )5 to 100 pounds. "There was little in any food and none of it seemed to do me any good. It seemed the more I ate the poorer I got and was always hungry before another meal, no matter how much I had eaten. , "Then I commenced a fair trial of Grape-Nuts food, and was surprised how a small saucer of It would carry me along, strong and with satisfied appetite, until the next meal, with no aensatlons of hunger, weakness or distress as before. "I have been following this diet now for several months and my improvement has been so great all the others fn my family have taken up the use of Orape-Nuts with complete satisfav tion and much improvement in health and brain power.

Princess Parlaghy of Hungary from a painting by herself and her portrait of Joseph K. Choate. The Princess recently sailed for New Amsterdam after a two years stay In America. Before sailing she announced that she had completed three of the life-sized oil portraits of famous Americans which supplied the motive for her coming to this country in 1908. The Princess said that she Is going direct to Holland where she has an engagement to meet Queen Wilhelmina and the girl baby heir to the throne. Then she will take the cure at Martenbad, spend some time In her castle St. Jean, and then paint a portrait of the Kaiser and Count Zeppeli together. She expects to return to America and paint John Rockefeller 8 and other prominent Americans' portraits.
BEES VEBY SCARCE Rush County Farmer Cuts Forty-five Acres Without Seeing Any. WET WEATHER THE CAUSE Rushville. Ind., July 21. Amos Winship one of the prominent farmers of Rush county living in Anderson township, has just completed cutting fortyfive acres of clover and reports that he has not seen a single bumble bee during the progress of the hay harvest. This is very remarkable and perhaps is due to the very wet weather we have had during this season, and many who believe that a large number of the pesky creatures are necessary to the production of clover seed, believe that owing to the scarcity of bees the seed crop will be light this year. Mr. Wlnshlp was very agreeably surprised, however, by their absence, as heretofore it has kept him busy dodging bumble bees during hay harvest.' and while he was expert in this pastime, he never failed in getting stung a number of times during th9 season. In fact Amos could almost make oath that three thousand times would be a fair estimate of the number of times he has jumped and hollered owing to coming in contact with the business end of a bumble bee while employed in the peaceful pursuit of "raking the meadows sweet with hay," but the busy buzz of his old enemy was not to be heard this time and the chances are.-that by the time next season rolls around he will be out of practice, and it will be a greater effort for him to sidestep the persistent rushes of the red clover humming bird. A USEFUL VEHICLE New Invention Can Either Swim, Run or Float, as the Owner Desires. IS A GERMAN INVENTION (American News Service) Berlin, July 21. A new Invention, which may be summarily described as the "aero-carboat," and is designed to run, float and fly, is being rapidly completed In a small garage close to the Tempelhofer Felo, the great maneuvering ground of the Berlin garri son, by the German airman whose name Is GrawerL Herr Grawert claims that the invention will be equally as efficient as motor-car, motor-boat and aeroplane, and that It will be convertible from any one of these functions to another In the space of twenty minutes. The machine combines the prinicples of the biplane and monoplane, having a central biplane compartment, from the sides of which two single planes project to increase the stability. Its total plane-surface is 718 square feet The framework Is of light steel tubing. The airman and the passengers, of whom the inventor hopes to be able to carry four, will sit in the flat-bottomed skiff, which is to serve alike as the carriage of the automobile, the car of the aeroplane and the hull of the motor boat Here Is also the 50horse power AnsanI motor which will be supplemented for work on the water by 'another equal power of Herr Grawert's own design- The wheels and wings when not In dm fold back alongside the boat -

if, FLOCKING TO CONEY Popular Resort Has Come Into Its Own After Month of Bad Weather. CRIMP PUT IN THE PROFITS (American News Service) New York, July 21. Coney Island, the popular amusement resort at New York's gateway to the sea has Just come Into its own after more than a month of intermittent rain and cold weather. The erase to make the journey from Manhattan to the island by motor car instead of by train has swamped the "rubberneck" machines which have been plying backward add forward since the seasoji opened. In response to a call sent out last week wagons from Washington, Philadelphia and other cities have been rushed to New York within the last few days. While their acquisition has served to reduce the congestion the demand for accommodations is still keen as ever and the promoters are looking the country for still further additions to their complement of cars. Now that pleasant weather has come apparently to stay the big resort man agers are wondering whether they will be able to end the season with a substantial profit. During the four weeks of rainy weather which attended the opening of the season the island was deserted. For the sake of appearances Luna Park and Dreamland, the two principal amusement parks kept their 400.xx electric lights glowing nightly at a tremendous cost to both institu tions. Electric light bills are Coney's principal liability. When business is good the profits are so enormous that they do not bother the concessionaires but one week of poor business will cut such a hole in the good side of the ledger that It takes weeks to recover from it. Coney's profits pile into big money when the ball Is rolling right Six and seven years ago Luna Park cleared a profit of a half million each year. Steeple Chase Park has netted Its owners anywhere from $100,000 to $175,000 annually and other resorts in proportion. . 1 BASEBALL CHIRPS George Lachancc. the old Boston first baseman. 1ms been appointed an umpire in the Connecticut State league. Griffith, McGraw and Cresnahan are the hit and run ' managers, while Chance, Clarke and Lake are depending more on the sacrifice hit. Dooin and Dahlen are mixers. Any ball club that is fast on the bases will win unless their opponents do some fine pitching and fielding. A loosely played game always gives a speedy team an advantage. Bob Emslie has been umpiring steadily for twenty-five years. It was Charlie' White of Spalding's, then president of the Eastern league, who gave him his first job as umpire.

RECRUIT NON UNION MEN
TROUBLE HAS SPREAD UNTIL NOW IT INVOLVES NEARLY EVERY BRANCH OF THE SERVICE 16,000 MEN OUT. (American News Service) Chicago, July 21. An attempt to move freight trains out of Chicago is being; made today by Grand Trunk officials In spite of the strike. Special agents have been kept busy recruiting non-union men for the freight trains left idle by the walkout of the members of the Order of Railroad Conductors and Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen. It is said quite a number of experienced men have been employed by the Grand Trunk to replace the strikers. Private detectives have established a guard around the passenger and freight depots air along the entire right of way to prevent further recurrences of encounters between strikers and the non-union men. No demonstration has been made in Chicago and none were expected today. The number of strikers has grown from 3,500 to nearly 16,000, according to statements given out at the offices of the Grand Trunk. The trouble has spread until it involves nearly every branch of the service. Almost 10,000 men from the shops and yards are out including large numbers from the Elgin yards near Chicago. STRIKEBREAKERS QUIT. Montreal, July 21. Nearly three hundred strikebreakers have deserted the Grand Trunk railway as a result of quiet missionary work on the .part of the strikers. Delay to freight handling is causing immense losses. NO FREIGHT MOVES. Buffalo, July 21. The third day of the strike finds both the Grand Trunk and the Wabash practically tied up here. No freight is moving and pas senger service is irregular. NO DISTURBANCES. ' Toronto, July 21. No disturbance has occurred here. No non-union men are yet installed. Passenger and freight service are both seriously crippled. Detroit and Chicago report conditions unimproved. TAKES BRAINS TO RUN. Sheppard Says Fellow Can't Break Record With Feet and Legs. When a fellow learns "how to runwhen be breaks records you can be sure that he does not do all with his feet and legs." remarked Melvln Sheppard recently. "There is only one way to run In record time, and that is for the fellow who is attempting the feat to use his brain," Continued peerless Mel. "Some acquire the necessary trait, but I have always found that calculating out just bow and when to run came natural to me; that's the reason why I lowered Lon Meyer's figures for the 660 yard run and beat the world's mark established by Lunghl for the 700 yard run. "There's nothing to it! I've trained more faithfully within the past few weeks than ever before, but I could never run as well as I did the other day just on the strength I have gathered since starting conscientious work. It was just that I have the natural gift of knowing when to do the running that counts lu a race that "gave me the two new records." said Sheppard. Sheppard. running Against a cold, damp, penetrating wind, created. two new world's records recently that will probably stand for years to come. At the 660 yard mark he broke the tape In 1 minute 21 2-5 seconds. Just threefifths of a second faster than Meyers traveled the distance twenty-eight years ago. At 700 yards Sheppard crossed the line 1 minute 26 4-5 seconds, which was exactly three-fifths of a second better than Lungbi's record. DIAMOND CHIPS Oscar Stanage of the Detroit Tigers Is a much improved catcher over what he was last year. "My payroll is now SS5.000." says Frank Farrell. owner of the New York Americans. "My total expenses for operating the team are $133,000." ' It is soft to be an umpire today compared with fire years ago. Then the players fought the umpires.

WANTS IT NEAR THE LAKE
CHAUTAUQUA DIRECTORS SAY HOLLERN HAS NEVER STATED HIS OBJECTIONS TO THEM PLANS FOR 1910 SEASON. "I am absolutely opposed to the Chautauqua Association building a closed pavilion, such as It proposed to build in Glen Miller park," said Ed Hollern, superintendent of Glen Miller park today. Supt. Hollern declared the pavilion would considerably lessen the beauty of Glen Miller. "It would just be a closed house stuck up in that field," he said. , "There is only one slace for a pavilion in the park," said Mr. Hollern, "and that is nearer the site of the present house, or down near the lake." According to Mr. Hollern's idea, the pavilion should be for refreshment stands, dances and all other public affairs. He said that the Chautauqua board of directors had refused to tell him what sort of & pavilion was wanted or anything about it except that it would be placed in the field jus, north of the regular Chautauqua grounds. This fact Is denied, however, by George Goodwin, , secretary of the Chautauqua board. He said Mr. Hollern had never placed the matter before the board as a whole. Hollern thinks the board wishes absolute control of the building, but Mr. Goodwin says it would be under the control of the city at all times and for all purposes except during Chautauqua. Mr., Goodwin states no action is being taken by the board on the matter now. Camping privileges begin at Chau tauqua on August 21, but the formal opening will be on Friday, August 26. The program continues until September 4. The program this year is said to be better than ever before.

FIVE WHO WERE RIDING IN THE CAB SAW WHAT THE ENGINE'S FATE WOULD BE AND JUMPED FIRE IS RAGING. Refusal of the brakes to work on a C, C & ' L. switch engine this afternoon resulted in a peculiar wreck on the Starr Piano switch about 1:45 o'clock. t The mishap was fortunate however, in view of the fact that no ( one was injured. The damage will aggregate several hundred dollars. The switch engine was in charge of Engineer Pat Dillon and was running backwards at a fairly rapid rate of speed, going south. When Dillon applied the brakes the air refused to work and the locomotive dashed rapidly down the Incline, its speed increasing with every revolution of the wheels. Besides Engineer Dillon there were four other men in the cab who,realizing the danger, jumped. Dillon, however, stuck at his post and remained with the engine until it struck the bumper. As the engine was toppl- , ing down the embankment Dillon jumped barely in time to escape being pinned beneath the boiler. Fire immediately broke out and soon the ; entire cab was a mass of flames. . The accident was one of the most peculiar '. that has ever occurred in this vicinity. The trucks all remained on the track, 0 the engine and cab toppling over and hanging down .the steep embankment . at that place. " Marriage Licenses.
