On the floor, where standards bear- ing the names of the states marked off the space reserved for the actual participants in this quadriennial festivity, the delegates were slower to arrive. There was a constant roar of noise from the floor and the galleries, the buzzing of thousands of voices blended into one indescribable med- ley. This bedlam of confusion and talk and stamping of feet and whispering and shouting rolled up to the speaker’s platform like a giant wave. The voice of eight thousand sets of vocal chords must be heard to be understood; words can’t couvey the impression.

Hold Cenference On the speaker’s platform the of- ficers of the convention were holding the little conferences that really amounted to something. Then came Charles D. Hilles. There was a vociferous outburst, a sort of tidal wave of noise that dashed against the platform and finally subsided in what would have been merely the murmur of expecta- tion, if it hadn’t been for the fact that eight or ten thousand murmurs of ecxpectetion from the audience bended together, made a fairly credit- able amount of noise. Finally, BANG! went the gavel. (Gavel by courtesy, be it understood, since it was really a gigantic mallet, the only kind whose staccato raps could be executed to penetrate the convention noise). Chairman Hilles called the conven- tion to order. The noise subsided a little. There KRR KEKRK KKK KKK KKK MR. HUGHES THEN AND MR. HUGHES NOW Chicago, June 7;—History undoubtedly repeats itself. On June 10, 1912, a few days before the Republican Nation- al Convention, Justice Chas: E. Hughes, on learning that his name was being agitated Other prominent - as a possible ‘“‘compromise” candidate in the fight between Taft and Roosevelt, sent the following message to a poli- tical leader in New York, by~ a friend: “Justice Hughes for the nomination is strictly without his authority. It is against his expn!ss wish.” During ar Justice Hughes almost identical disclaimers.

Over in the Auditorium, very much the same scenes were being enacted, on a slightly smaller scale. The Auditorium was likewise packed, but it wasn't néarly so large a hall as the Colliseum and its theatre-like proportions didn’t create the impres- sion of vastness such as struck the onlooker on entering the barn-like interior of the Republican meeting place. ‘The Progressive conclave was more mixed, also. There were women delegates. But there was the same noise and chatter and enthusiasm. The fiery red head of National Chairman Victof Murdock moved comet-like on the stage. “Original Roosevelt men”—and women—renewed their fealty to the Sage of Sagemore Hill in cheers, in imprompt conferences, in all sorts of badges and ribbons. SUFFRAGETTES PARADE TO BIG CONVENTIONS (Continued from Page 1) bers of the Chicago Teachers’ Federa- tion. The “Rovers,” garbed in specially tailored suits, formed one of the nat- tiest groups in line. They are mov- able adjutnast of the parade. Chief of Police Charles C. Healey and a mounted squad headed the par- ade. Mrs. Kellogg Fairbank, grand mar- shal, dressed in a costume of white and yellow, followed, leading the ranks of women marching sixteen abreast. Members of the National Board of the American Women Suffrage asso- ciation were lead by Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, New York, president of the organization. Miss Jane Addams of Hull House was unable to walk, and rode in an automobile. KKK KKK KKK KKK * “CONVENTIONALITIES” * KEE R KKK KKK KKK KKK Former heavyweight champion, James J.

After one of Senator Weeks’ run- ners up had spent 24 hours, his most winning manner and a breakfast in- vitation on two delegates under the misapprehension they were old guardsmen, only to discover they were red hot rantankerous Roosevelt Progressives, the senator was enough of a sport to buy them coffee and rolls anyhow. William Jennings Bryan is to be an onlooker this week. He’s under contract to write about the conven- tion. The less peaceful the conven- tion is the more he will have to write about, Secretary George L. von Meyer of the Republican-Roosevelt committee rises up in a half page ad today to advise in 72-point type that the dele- gates “heal the wound to the bone.” DULUTH DIOCESE IN ANNUAL CONVENTION Duluth, Minn., June 7.—Forty members of the Episcopal clergy and a like number of laymen represented the parishes and missions of the Du- luth diocese at the 21st annual con- vention which opened last night.
