T0 HARVEST GREAT CROP (Continued from first page.) “We had expected to excavate through to Nicollet avenue this year,” said A. D. Emery of the di- vision engineer’s office, Minneapolis, “but we are ordered by Chief Engi- neer C. F. Loweth to stop all work. ‘We have plenty of time under the or- dinance to do the work, which is not expected to be finished for several years, but, as the weather has been favorable we had intended to push through to Nicollet avenue. We now understand that the enormous crops are going to put a heavy burden upon terminals and that we have got to be in shape to handle them. No more excavating work will be done until spring,. when we probably will get started again. Where we went through Lyndale avenue yesterday we will put things back in shape again so that street traffic may not be disturbed.” A. B: Cook & Co., who have the contract for the double’ tracking of the line from Hopkins to Glencoe, Minn., will not be disturbed. FORECAST FOR COMING WEEK. ‘Washington, D. C., July 27— -Pres- ident Taft will be officially notified of his nomination at the White House on Thursday. According to present plans, Mr. Taft will receive ‘the notification. committee on the rear portico of the executive mansion, which overlooks the ellipse. He will SEE SEEKS FREEDOM. Chicago, July 29.—Evelyn Arthur See “revealer of the absolute life,” has become disgusted with his vain efforts to “redeem” his fellow prison- ers in the county jail and now seeks a broader field. He desires liberty 80 he may take personal charge of his “Junior Commonwealth,”” which has again become the haven of small boys and girls. Mildren Bridges and Mona Rees, the two young apostles whose con- fessions to'Police Captain Danner were the main factors in securing See his penitentiary sentence await the coming of the “prophet” with open arms. Stephen H. Bridges, who on the witness stand swore See had been too friendly with Mrs. Bridges as well as her daughter, and recently made an affidavit retracing this tes- timony, asserting he was “misled” by the police, also welcomes See’s free- dom. Third Party in Arkansas. Little Rock, Ark., July 29.—Ar- kansas leaders in the Roosevelt move- ment have completed arrangements for a state convention to be held in this city tomorrow to name delegates to the National Progressive conven- tion in Chicago next week. Gathering at Kansas City. Kansas City, Mo., July 29.—Dele- gates are arriving here for the state convention of Roosevelt supporters speak from the portico, with the com- mitteemen grouped about him on the lawn. The president will probably leave for his summer home at Bever- ly immediately after the notification meeting. State conventions of the Progress- ive party during the week will in- clude the following: Montana, at Helena; New Mexico, at Albuquer- que; Louisiana, at New Orleans; Ar- kansas, at Little Rock; Illinois, at Chicago; Tennessee, at Nashville; Colorado, at Denver; Indiana, at In- dianapolis; Virginia, at Roanoke; Minnesota, at St. Paul; Missouri, at Kansas City, and Connecticut, at New Haven. Governor Woodrow Wilson, the presidential nominee of the Demo- cratic party, expects to continue at his summer home at Sea Girt during the week, receiving visits from the party leaders and putting the finish- ing touches to his notification ad- dress. Republicans and Democrats of Ne- braska, in accordance with the prim- ary law, will hold their state conven- tions Tuesday, the former meeting at Lincoln and the latter at Grand Is- land. As the nominations were made in the primaries the work of the con- vention will be confined principally to the adoption of the party plat- forms. The rivalry of the two fac- tions in the Republican party is ex- pected to cause a lively convention. Five aspirants are contesting for the Democratic gubernatorial nomina- tion in Tennessee, which will be set- tled in a state primary Thursday. Former Governor Benton McMillan is among those who aspire to head the state ticket. Democrats of Kentucky will select their candidates for representatives in Congress in the state-wide primary to be held Saturday.

Grasty of Baltimore and Fremont Older of San Francisco.

Detroit, Mich., July 29.—That the marked success that osteopaths have had in treating disabled baseball players has helped to spread among all classes knowledge of the cures the profession is accomplishing is the opinion expressed by Mayor William B. Thompson in his address of wel- come to the two thousand practition- ers gathered here today from all over the United States and Canada for the opening of the sixteenth annual meeting of the American Osteopathic association. Dr. James Holloway of Dallas, Texas, is presiding over the sessions, which will continue through the greater part of the week. Twist the Tiger’s Tail. New York, July 29.—The opening gun in the regular biennial conflict between Tammany Hall and the up- the-state Democrats is about to be fired. Tonight, at the Hotel Astor, the anti-Tammany forces get togeth- er in a state-wide conference to ‘dis- cuss the plan of battle. The confer- ence meets under the auspices of the new Empire state Democracy, which has been formed with the sole object in view of preventing Tammany vention. ticket this fall will probably be de- cided upon within a few weeks. let it be known that he would like to be the anti-Tammany candidate for governor. Supreme Court Justice Victor J. Dowling probably would be acceptable to the up-the-state lead- ers and one or two others probably will be considered. Leader Murphy, in accordance with his custom, is sitting tight and awaiting developments before mak- ing public the Tammany choice for the governorship. Mayor Gaynor is believed to be willing to accept the nomination, but it is said that Mur- phy is not quite sure whether he wants the mayor at Albany. Gov- ernor Dix is in the field for a re- nomination, but whether he is to have the support of Tammany is a question still unanswered. Others are whose names are being discussed in connection with the Democratic nomination for governor are William Temple Emmet and State Engineer John A. Bensell. Her Grace Effective.

Conway has WORK ~AN' EXPERT ~IN WORDS Websterrl?,evised and Modernilzed by Harry Thurston Peck is the Latest Lexicon. Harry Thurston Peck has just written his latest and what its pub- lishers believe, is the best book of his career. Who is Harry Thurston Peck? It is not likely that such a ques- tion will be asked, but for the benefit of the entirely uninformed it might be better to explain that he is not a novelist, although this latest work of his is almost certain to be a “best seller.” The book as it is in its completion today represents the perfection of a ready reference work made possible by a broad-minded and learned edi- tor, assisted by a board of distin- guished assistants co-operating with broad-minded and progressive pub- lishers. Harry Thurston Peck, Ph. D., Litt. D., LL. D., editor-in-chief of the New International Encyclopedia; editor of Harper’s Classical Dictionary; mem- ber of the Academy of Political Seci- ence; member of the National Insti- tute of Arts and Letters; formerly Professor of English at Columbia Un- iversity, and author of learned works, is also the author of delightful stor- ies for children, told-first to his own little girl and later put into writing. One would hardly expect to find in the same verson the compiler of en- cyclopedias and the teller of chil- dren’s tales, but it is this touch of human interest in the makeup of Dr Peck perhaps, that has helped him in making the New Websterian 1912 Dictionary, Illustrated, “just a little different” than previous works upon language. As the professor modestly admits, the dictionary is, of course, not a cy- clopedia, but still it is more than a dictionary and while not going into extended discourse on any of its many subjects, still there is more than a bare definition difficult to un- derstand. By clever composition the editor has managed to convey a broader meaning to the words con- sidered than is customary in works of the size. Some further idea of the breadth of Dr. Peck’s knowledge may be se- cured from the naming of a few of the many books of which he is the author. His work on Latin Pronun- ciation, and his book on the Latin Historians are extensively used as textbooks. His “Harper's Dictionary of Classical Literature and Antiqui- ties” displaced every other work on colloborated with Prof. G. P. Pease of Bowdoin and Leland Sanford uni- versities in editing 30 volumes of Latin classics. He has translated in- to English the first example of the ancient novel converted into modern slang; written the first history of -|classical philology that has yet been given in English in a form suitable for the use of the ordinary rollege student; prepared and published as the result of five years work the well known work on contemporaneous his- tory. “Twenty Years of the Repub- lic,” including the period from 1885 to 1905. Among the many other works of the professor is a book of travel dealing with things as he saw them, and incidents that actually happened, and also a number of chil- dren’s books. Now comes the latest and best dictionary. This dictionary is not published by the original publishers of Webster’s Dictionary or by their successors.
