Elected Tempotaty Chairman, DEMOCRATS' WILL BATTLE TUESDAY (Continued from first page.) framing of the platform will depend in a great measure upon the results of the Republican national conven- tion now in session in Chicago. The Democratic convention nom- inates a presidential candidate by a two-thirds vote, therefore the winner in the convention must secure 716 votes. No candidate in the race has anywhere near enough instructed votes to secure the nomination on the first ballot. In the order of their strength, as indicated by the number of delegates pledged to support- them, the leading candidates are Champ Clark of Missouri, Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey, Oscar W. Underwood of Alabama and Judson Harmon of Ohio. - The standing of these four candi- dates indicates their relative strength 3 on the first ballot in the convention i next week. Their actual strength ] will not be known, however, until i after the first ballot, when about 270 g uninstructed delegates and a scatter- % ing vote of ninety delegates for Gov- ¥ | i i H ernors Foss of Massachusetts, Bald- win of Connecticut, Marshall of In- YOUR GRAY HAIRS QUIGKLY VANISH A Harmless Remedy, Made from Gar- den Sage, Restores Color to Gray Hair A feeling of sadness accompanies the discovery of the first gray hairs which unfortunately are looked upon ag aeralds of advancing age. Grey i hair, however handsome .it maybe, makes a person look old. We all know the advantages of being young. Aside from the good impression a youthful appearance makes on others - simply knowing that you are “look- ing fit” gives one courage to under- take and accomplish things. So why suffer the handicap of looking old on account of gray hairs, when a simple 1 remedy will give your hair youthful and color and beauty in a few days’ time? Most people know that common garden sage acts 23 a color restorer and scalp tonic as well. Our grand- mothers useq a “Sage Tea” for keep- ing their hair dark, solft and luxur- {ant. In Wyeth’s Sase and Sulphur Hair Remedy we have zn ideal pre- paration of Sage, combined with Sul- phur and other valuable remedies for dandruff, itching scalp and thin, ‘weak hair that is split at the ends or constantly coming out. A few appli- cations of this valuable remedy will bring back the color, and in a short time it will remove every trace of dandruff and greatly improve the j growth and appearance of the hair. Get a fifty cent bottle from your | druggist today, and notice that differ- | .ence in your hair after a few days’ 1 treatment. All druggists sell it, un- der guarantee that the money will be refunded if the remedy is not exactly ap represented, 5 orial Hall this afternoon. diana and Burke of North Dakota will be cast. These four favorite Isons are expected to drop out of the contest after the first ballot, leaving the fight to the remaining four can- didates, Speaker Clark, Governor Wilson, Governor Harmon and Rep- resentative Underwood. While the second ballot will probably disclose the actual strength of these four can- didates, it will probably require a number of ballots before the leading candidate obtains a two-thirds vote necessary to nominate. In the event that the convention is unable to make a choice from among the leading candidates and a deadlock ensues, one of the other four candidates may be named, or, what is considered even more likely, a “dark horse” may cap- ture the nomination. In connection with the talk of a “dark horse” the names of William J. Bryan and Mayor Gaynor of New York city are most frequently mentioned. National Chairman Mack of Buf- falo, Secretary Woodson of Kentucky and the members of the committee on arrangements are in the city and tomorrow meeting will . be held to complete the final details of the con- vention arrangements. The Armory in which the convention is to be held stands in readiness for the gathering of delegates. Headquarters of the national committeee and of the sev- eral presidential candidates are run- ning full blast.

PARTY WOMEN BUSY They Are Taking Much Interest in National Politios. —_— NOT BOOSTING INDIVIDUALS R. T. Mason Ball, Great-Great-Grand Nephew of George Washington, Gives National Museum, Many Relics of First President. By GEORGE CLINTON. ‘Washington.—Women are taking more and more intecest in politics ev- ery day and the movement is particu- larly noticeable in Washington, where nobody, man or woman, has a vote. There are purely political movements In Washington under constant discus- sion by the women which have notb- ing to do with the matter of suffrage for the sex. Republican women are taking an interest in the success of the Republican ticket aud the Demo- cratic women are taking an interest in the success of the ticket of their party, and thus far the women of hoth sides have insisted that the move- ment shall be for the success of thelr parties at the polls and that no at- tempt shall be made on behalf of any particular candidate for the nomina- tions. There was a harmony breakfast pro- moted by the Democratic women here recently, accounts of Wwhich already have appeared. There were present at the breakfast the wives of most of the candidates for the party’s pres- idential nomination. Following this breakfast and perhaps as a sort of a sequel to it there has just been held in this city a meeting of the Wom- en’s National Democratic league. Mrs. John Sherwin Crosby of New York presided. The object of this league is “to promote the principles of Democ- racy and to assist in the election of the nominees of the Democratic par- ty.” It is especially provided in the league’s constitution that “there shall be no influence used in behalf of any person or faction prior to the nomi- nations by the Democratic party.” So it 18 that the women of both par- ties, with-suffrage to a certain extent as a side issue, now are engaged In the work of promoting the interest of men candidates for high officlal posi- tion. The women are militant appasr- ently in intention and thus far they have shown militancy in action. Gives Relics of First President. In the United States navy there 1s a pay director who is a great-great- grand-nephew of George Washington. His name is R. T. Mason Ball and his home is in Baltimore. There are oth- er collateral descendants of George ‘Washington living in the country round-about Washington. Pay Director Ball has four sisters. The Ball family through the naval officer has just presented the National museum of thé caplital with many me- morials of the Washington family, some of them having been owned d¥ rectly by the Father of His Country. One of the gifts now in the care of the government is a Bible cover of tapes- try which was used to protect the family Bible of Frances Thornton ‘Washington, a niece of George Wash- ington, from dust and hard usage. A piece of the crepe which was hung on the door knob at Mount Vernon on the occasion of the funeral of the first president is another one of the me- morials. With it 18 a plece of yellow silk ribbon which was tied in bow shape to the flag staff carrled by ‘Washington’s bodyguard on the ocaa- sion of the funeral. Another cloth memorial i8 a plece of crimson material from a flag car- ried by the Continental forces who ‘were under the command of Col. Bur- gess Ball durlng the Revolutionary war.
