PENSION ASKED FOR AGED CIVIL SERVICE WOMEN

ST. Louis, June 14. For the first time since the national convention began naming, or ratifying, candidates, a fight is to be made for a class of federal employes' who are not included in .the political appointments - of the national government. This fight comes from the New York delegation, , and it has for its object the making of pensions for old

men and women who have given their

lives to the civil service, and for whom no provision is now made 'when they reach the aae when wont may no longer be performed.

Started by Letter Carriers. Letter carriers were primarily responsible for the movement. The New York letter carriers conceived the notion that a system which provided pension lists for the army and navy, but left the soldiers of peace to hustle for themselves when they got too oldt to do much hustling was all wrong. Through an organized effort the mall folk brought their proposition to the attention of the New York chiefs. So today, when the committee on resolutions gets busy on the making of a platform. It will find a big bit of tlmber dragged in by Representative John J. Fitzgerald, which is intended to be used in building a home for superannuated federal employes.

Convention Sidelights

LEARNER ADDRESSES BAPTIST BROTHERS

addressed the of First Baptist

His M. Learner Brotherhood meeting

church last night. He spoke on living a life which touches all branches of society. He said that too many people live in a single plane and never get above or below their particular level. The meeting was well attended and it was the last session of the Brotherhood before the adjournment for the summer vacation.

ST. LOUIS. June 14. The Democratic convention today opened with the lightest attendance of any national convention of,- the last twenty; years, according to rallbirds who haTe been at. every session in that time. The certainty that Wood row Wilson would be nominated and the lack of any real fight kept thousands away. Suffrage leaders who are storm'ng the Democratic national committee with" a demand that the Susan B. Anthony amendment be passed by the present congress have been asked why they are eo vigorous in their dealings with the Democrats, while they allowed the" Republicans to make mere promises. . "It's because the Democrats are in power." said one today. "If the Republicans were in power we would be after them the same way we are the Democrats. The latter have the

power to grant what we want, and that is why we are keeping right after them." One Washington, correspondent who went on a visit to Augustus Busch's estate is a sorrowful gentleman today. He was a guest in the Busch auto and didn't know It. A member of the Busch family was his host They were buzzing along a counry road and the correspondent absent mindedly remarked that he would like to have a drink of Milwaukee beer. The host nearly exploded. He made it plain in no uncertain terms that St. Louis beer especially as made at the Anhauser-Bush brewery, has the Milwaukee product lashed to the mast.

ADMIT TWO ORPHANS

Two boys from Ohio, aged seven and nine, were admitted into the Wernle orphans home at the meeting of the the board at the home of Rev. Albert J. Feeger last night. 'Outside of this, only routine busi-

l ness was transacted.

BOARD

OF REVIEW SETS ASSESSMENTS

Following assessments were made by the board of review Tuesday afternoon: - ' Dickinson Wall Paper Co., $1,500, same as last year: Dafler-Moser Co., 1,020, .last year, $6S0; Entre Nous, $410, same; Emmons Tailoring Co., $500, same; Dr. Emmons Throat and Lung Healer, $440; Fosler Drug Co., $3,740, last year, $4,000.

The crowd booming Governor Major of Missouri for vice president pulled the most original stunt yet perpetrated nt thi convention. They had a lot of

badges bearing the word "delegate" at the top and "Wilson and Major" with a picture of them below. They passed them out to the public with the hint that they would pass them into the Coliseum. The result was that about half the population of St. Louis wore badges boosting Major's nomination. Trouble is expected at the Coliseum entrances during all the day of the convention. He wore a large hat, Kansas vogue, tipped jauntily on his head. He puffed out his chest and stuck his thumbs in his vest and said to the admiring crowd : "I voted for Breckenridge in 1S60, I have been a delegate to every Democratic national convention since, and

by gosh, thought I'm eighty, I'm going to be good for several more." We then gave his name Colonel

William M. Fairman of Punxsutaney, delegate from Jefferson county, the twenty-seventh district of Pennsylvania. V ; " The league to enforce peace a national organization of which ex-President Taft is head will try, through delegate Philip H. Gadsden of Charleston. S. C, to cause the adoption by the Democratic convention of the following resolution: "We earnestly favor, a joint guarantee of peace on the part of the great

nations, and believe the United States !

should take the initiative in endeavoring to bring it about after the termin-

I ation of the war."

Senator Ollie James, permanent chairman of the convention, demonstrated his diplomacy when approached by two suffragettes in the lobby of the Jefferson hotel. "We want you to pose with Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt and other prominent suffragettes," said one of the ladies to the senator. "A movie man is going to take our pictures." Senator James hesitated for just a minute. "But I never pose for the movies, and anyway, I would be decidedly out of place in a group of beautiful -women-" And how could the ladies insist further. St. Louis people are growing blase to notables. It takes at least a governor or a United States senator to draw their attention. As evidenced by a newsboy, who, after seeing a crowd of correspondents talking to a statesman, remarked to his chum: "Aw,

they aint nothin to see; he's only a congressman." The personage referred to was Congressman Henry Rainey of Illinois, who is slated to make the nominating, speech for Roger Sullivan, "should the latter's name be presented for the vice presidential nomination. "Paddy" Harmon, who revived the six-day bike race in Chicago, is in St.' Louis in the interest of Roger Sulli-. van. Several more bands arrived in town to stir up enthusiasm. Among them, were musical organizations from. Michigan and Indiana. They paraded through the streets and hotels followed by their respective delegates.

STAGE SECOND ROUND

Second round of the city championship series will be staged out at Ratliff park Sunday afternoon when the Schweizer clan of Senators try to exterminate the Miller-Kempers. Charles Feasel, manager of the home builders intimates however that the - M.-K. crew won't be exterminated.
