CONVENTION CITY

IS TO BE IWhen the Republican National Committee Meets on' Tuesday. (National New Aanoclatlon) WASHINGTON. Dec. 11. The place and date for holding the National Republican convention will be determined upon officially tomorrow at the meeting of the National Republican Committee, President Taffs "love feast" dinner to the committee Members at the White House tonight Is to be a "pulse feeler," practically determining what the action of the committee would be, but nothing could be learned today of the choice excepting that Chicago and St. Louis were well up to the fore In the race. It is declared almost certain that the convention will go to the West, largely because of the strong rivalry between progressive and conservative wings of the party in that section, the belief being that greater unity of action could be secured as the result of the pacifying Influence of giving the convention to the place where the lighting is the hottest. To Select Chairman. Another important question to be settled by tomorrow's meeting is that of chairman of the National Committee. The resignation of Postmaster General Hitchcock as National chairman will be acted upon, and, If it is accepted, as seems certain because of his Insistence, a successor wiii have to be chosen. In this connection, the names most prominently mentioned are those of John Hayes Haramon 1. customs collector, William Loeb, Charles D. Hllles,. private secretary to President Taft and former Governor Hill, of Maine, who fs now acting as temporary chairman. The chairmanship of the National Committee will have no little effect on the relative chances of President Taft and progressive rivals for the 1912 presidential nomination. The system of selecting the delesates for the National Convention will be threshed out at the meeting. According to the method In vogue in the past, the basis for delegates to the convention is four at large In each state and two for each Congressional district, besides two special delegates from each Territory. The progressive wing, led by Senator Jonathan Dourne, Jr., president of the National Progressive Republican League declare the system is misrepresentatlve and that delegates should be apportioned according to the number of Republican votes cast. Such a plan would greatly reduce the number of delegates from the Southern States where the Republican vote is small. However, it Is declared likely that the bold system is the one that will prevail, the total number of delegates being Increased from 980 at the last convention to 1,072 because of the reapportionment of Congress, which increases the size of the House of Representatives from 391 to 433 members. -, Delegates Appointed. The arrangement which is expected to be adopted will apportion the delegates as follows: Alabama, 24; Arkansas, 18; California, 26; Colorado, 12; Connecticut, 14; Delaware, 6; Florida. 12; Georgie, 28; Idaho, 8; Illinois. 58; Indiana, 30; Iowa, 26; Kansas, 20; Kentucky. 28; Louisiana, 20; Maine, 12; Maryland, 16; Massachusetts, 36; Michigan, 30; Minnesota, 24; Mississippi, 20; Missouri, '36; Montana, 8; Nebrasga, 16; Nevada, 16; New Hampshire, 8; New Jersey, 28; New York, 90; North Carolina. 24; North Dakota, 10; Ohio, 48; Oklahoma. 20; Oregon, 10; Pennsylvania. 76; Rhode Island. 10; South Carolina, 18; South Dakota. 10; Tennessee, 24; Texas. 40; Utah, 8; Vermont. 8; Virginia, 2; Washington. 14; West Virginia, 16; Wisconsin, 26; Wyoming, 6.

Arguments of Cities. . The fact that Chicago was honored tbjr the Republican National Convention of 1908 is being used as an argument by both St. Louis and the Windy Honey Back Cure for Rheumatism No wonder Leo H. Flhe Is having such a large sale on RHEUM A when It cures Rheumatism so quickly and he guarantees it. It's simply wonderful how quickly It gets after any kind of Rheumatism and drives agony from the joints and muscles. A. A, Bellows, East Orwell.

I want two bottles for my cousin, who Is very badly crippled with the disease." ;No remedy on earth can compare with this new discovery.

CHOSEN

A GOOD REASON

Richmond People Can Tell You Why It Is So. Doan's Kidney Pills cure the cause of disease, and that is why the cures are lasting. This remedy strengthens and tones up the kidneys, helping them to drive out of the body the liquid poisons that cause backache, headache and distressing kidney and urinary complaints. Richmond people testify to permanent cures. Martin Bulach, tailor, 433 S. Eleventh St., Richmond, Ind., says: "In the spring of 1902, I suffered from a : weak and lame back and other symp-! torn s of kidney trouble. Learning of Doan's Kidney Pills, I procured a supply at A. G. Luken and Co.'s Drug Store and their use brought me prompt relief. Since then I have had no further need of a kidney remedy, as my cure has heen permanent. I gave a statement, recommending Doan's Kidney Pills, after I had used them with such good results and I still hold a high opinion of this remedy." j For sale by ail dealers. Price 50 cents.

The Missourians here to boost St. Louis for the convention say that Chicago should not have it twice in succession, the Chicago committee point to the success with which the meeting was conducted. Both cities are represented by prominent citizens' committees, who talked with the members of the National Committee today. Chicago is making a detei mined bid for the Democratic convention as well as the Republican, but the chief efforts are concentrated upon the later. The citizens committee pressing Chicago's claims is composed of wellknown men. Fred W. Upham is President and John C. Roth Treasurer, and they have generous financial backing'. Mr. Upham and Mrs. Roth made a good record in the handling of the finances of the Republican National Concention in 1908 and the Deep Waterways congress held in Chicago recently. St. Louis also is making a vigorous effort to obtain the convention. The Business Men's League of that city has charge of its campaign for the convention, and they are not only announcing sufficient finances for the convention, but are armed with arguments as to the city's central location, its ample hotel accommodations, its splendid coliseum and its startegic position as the metropolis of a doubtful state. Other cities that are making bids for the convention are Denver, Kansas City, Omaha. Cleveland and Detroit, but the preference is believed to lie between St. Louis and Chicago.

Dockstader's Minstrels. The comedians with "Lew Dockstader's Great Minstrels" which appears at the Gennett tonight include, in addition to Mr. Dockstader himself, Neil O'Brien. "Happy" Naulty, and "Lee Copeland, the best burnt cork funmaker now before the public to say fiothing of the Inimitable work of Mr. Dockstadt-r, that has made him a household word in all parts of the country. O'Brien. Naulty and Copeland stand at the head of their profession. O'Brien is one of the best comedians that ever graced the minstrel stage and has been one of the leading features of "Lew Dockstader's Great Minstrels" for years. "Les" Copeland is another very clever comedian, and "Happy" Naulty. who is in his "teens," is fast becoming one of the stars. Their "end business" is now bright, unctious and up-to-date and their monologues contain all that is best in that sort of work and there is a neatness and cleverness about their work that is refreshing. Lew Dockstader Is the most popular comedian that has ever appeared on the minstrel stage, and stands without an equal in originality. He is the recipient f more ovations than any other male star in America. There is but one Lew Dockstader and his duplicate does not exist anywhere. He is the foremost minstrel star in the theatrical firmament and is known in this country wherever minstrelsy is recognized. McFadden's Flats. There is no denying the potency of McFadden's Flats." the peer of all musical farce comedies, which is underlined as the offering at the Gennett Wednesday night. The piece, which is now in its fourteenth year, is as attractive and entertaining as ever. This season an entirely new version of the enduring comedy is offered and the result is one of the most pretentious and thoroughly up-to-date productions ever offered to theatergoers. The fun. while of the brick, lively nature, is still clean and wholesome. There is not the least suggestion of vulgarity or horse play, and the situations, while sidesplitting, are not at all Improbable. Special ties of the kind that would lift any similar offering above the commonplace are mtrodaoed, and musical numbers wU

catchy, tuneful melodies are scattered throughout the action of the play. The scenery is on the spectacular order and is carried complete for the pro-, duction. The cast is composed of sixey people, all capable in their particular field of merrymaking. The singing chorus includes thirty as bewitching and beautiful young women as were ever mustered In any theatrical company, while the costumes, it is said, are better and more original in design than any shown here in years. The usual matinee will be given.

At the Murray. For the closing bill of the season Manager Murray is giving one of the very best bills of the season. On next Saturday night after the second performance the house will close and remain dark for the ensuing week but will open again on Christmas afternoon with the usual holiday matinee at evening prices. The show opens with Tom Kuma, a little Jap, in a very clever ring act. This little fellow of the brown skin does stunts with these rings or hoops which to the unitiated seems almost miraculous. The Four Brahm Girls follow in a very classy musical act, playing upon the violin, cello and piano. One of the young ladies sings in a well trained voice while the other three play the accompaniments. Dancing Bill Halpey, who dances with one foot and harmonizes with the other has one of the cleverest dancing acts in vaudeville. He has a lot of new catchy songs and as a dancer he excells.. , J. F. Bannister and Co., the headliners have a beautiful scenic act entitled "Auld Lang Syne." In support of Mr. Bannister he carries a company of five people, all of whom are real performers. Special scenery and electrical effects are carried making it a thing of beauty. Motion pictures as usual round out the bill. Where are you going? St. Andrews' Bazaar, of course! Dec. 13 and 14. Putting Down Eggs For Winter Use. When one can obtain strictly fresh laid eggs at this season it is good economy to pack a number for winter use. It is not expensive or any great trouble to do this if one goes at it the right way. One should buy fertile eggs, and they must not be more than three days old better to pack the day they are laid or the day after. Use a ten gallon stone jar. Boil six gallons of water in an absolutely clean vessel. Let it stand till cold. Have ready two quarts of water glass, obtained at any drug store for a few cents. For every cupful of water glass use ten cupfuls of water. Put them in the mixture in the jar without washing. This last is impor tant, because there is a natural oily substance on the shell that helps to keep the pores filled. Eggs so packed are as nice, as fresh and beat up as well as new laid eggs.

M. C. A. TAKES FIRST GAME A brilliant victory over the Marion team marked the opening of the local Y. M. C. A. basketball season Saturday evening at the association gymnasium. Marion played a hard, fast game, and at times was able to hold the locals, but they never had a chance at the victory. The score at the conclusion of the contest was 58 to 23. At 8:30 the referee tossed the ball up to the rival centers, and it had been in play less than a minute when Carl Allison, forward on the Richmond team, dropped the sphere into the basket for the first score of the game. Harrington and Mayer followed up this feat with baskets in quick succession, and the visitors were swamped with a deluge of scores. Allison was the star of the evening, shooting fourteen field goals and playing all over the floor almost simultaneously. Jimmy Harrington secured six field goals, Al Mayer, four; Weichman, three; and Kemper, two. McConnell had the leading part in holding down the Richmond score, registering four field goals and three fouls, while Taylor garnered five field goals for the visitors. Cooking Breakfast In Bed. Surely no one should have trouble in keeping a cook in a house with al! electric appliances, like those described in the September Issue of Suburban Life. The author says: "In connection with the wiring of the house, a switch was located in the maid's bed room at the head of her bed. When ' she first awoke in the morning she could - turn this switch and start the coffee and cereals before getting out ; of bed. She would get these dishes i ready before retiring for the night j and then simply insert the plugs In the electric dishes ready for turning the switch the next morning. Thus she was always sure of avoiding delay, which is not always true with a coal range. At the best the fire in the coal range would be Just about j 'coming up by the time the maid was : dressed and in the kitchen. With the j electric outfit the coffee and the cereal j were practically ready to serve." Austria. Austria, a country that is remarkable for Its large eaters, has the highest death rate.

Last Chapter of the M 'Namara Trial Written - Both in Stripes

SAN QUETIN, Cal.. Dec. 11. The McXamara brothers Sunday entered San Quetin Penitentiary, where James B., is condemned to spend the remainder of his life for his confessed crime of murder, and where John J. secretary of the International Associa tion of Bridge and Structural Iron I Workers, is sentenced to fifteen i years' imprisonment for dynamiting. It was James B. who blew up the i Los Angeles Times building, Oct. 1, ' 1910, with the loss of twenty-one i lives, and John J., who abetted in wrecking part of the Llewllyn Iron I Works in Los Angeles the following Christmas day. The pleas of guilty entered by these men closed these two cases and opened up a nation-wide investigation, including probes of two Federal Grand Juries, into a series of dynamitings reaching from coast to coast and perpetrated generally where labor differences existed to a marked degree. Believe Themselves Martyrs. The men entered the prison, it is fairly authenticated, believing that they had achieved much for the cause of union labor, and had been misunderstood in their efforts and the results they obtained. Whirled from Los Angeles on a fast night train the men were taken from it at sunrise, put on a little river steamer and landed two hours and a half later at San Quetin Prison wharf on the shores of San Pablo Bay. The shackles which bound them together on the boat trip were slipped off and they toiled up the prison hill beside Sheriff William A. Hammel of Los Angeles county. As the prison clock struck 10, John J. McNamara, preceded by Warden John Hoyle, stepped over- the threshold of the prison door, with his brother directly behind him, in five minutes James B. McNamara had become convict 25,314 and John J. McNamara was No. 25,315. Given Striped Garb. They were mailed for jail clothing, photographed in two positions, given a carbolic tinctured bath, put into stripes, shaved and cropped and rephotographed within an hour, and turned over to John Murray, lieutenant of the yard, who took them to Cell 18 in a stone tier looking out over the prison's "upper yard," a great flower garden. Cell 18 adjoins the tier of cells in which condemned murderers are kept and the balcony outside is cut off by a little grate. Further down the row, toward the other end, is the cell of Abraham Ruef, who is serving a fourteen-year sentence for bribery in connection with the San Francisco graft cases. Ruef is in Cell 3. In Cell 11 of the tier is Henry Dalton, for seventeen years assessor of Almeda" county and recently convicted of accepting a bribe. Prison Band Plays.

the prison band began to play and continued until 1 p. m. At 2 o'clock Sunday dinner was served. The McNamaras were furnished with a prison-made dinner card, done in three colors and marked "San Quetin Grill." The prisoners who devised it had taken occasion to point out the attractions of the place. Never 'since the opening' of 1852 has the San Quetin grill enjoyed a better reputation or greater patronage than under the present management," wrote the wag in stripes. "There are present more than 1,940 regular boarders taking their meals at the grill. The cuisine and service are unsurpassed. Some of the boarders return six, eight, and even ten times, after trying other establishments. The location and climate are the finest in the world. Situated atthe foot of Mt. Tamalipas, basked in the grand and glorious California sunshine, fanned by the breezes of San Pablo Bay, the grill is an ideal resort the year round." Read "House Rules." A list of house rules, likewise jesting, fills the back page. The dinner the McNamaras' ate consisted of corn beef, brown gravy, steamed potatoes, boiled beans, stewed dried fruit, coffee cake, bread and coffee. The brothers passed the remainder of the day in their cells. Tomorrow they will begin work in the jute mill, Warden Hoyle said, but James B., on the advice of Sheriff Hammel, will be examined for tuberculosis, and if he shows symptoms of it he will be given other work. Half a dozen passengers, craning
