Stone said delegations were per- fectly free to vote for whom they} choose. But the Missouri delegation would vote for Clark on all ballots re gardless of what others might do. Mayor Fitzgerald then took the plat- | form and withdrew the name of Gov- ernor Foss. Delegates Are Dilatory. | The convention hall began to fill) by 11 o'clock, but delegates, wearied with the long night sessions and monotonous roll calls, were late ap-| pearing.

The information that came trom the caucus room was that the New York vote would continue to be cast f Clark. At 12:15 Chairman James directed the calling of the roll for the forty- third time. In Arizona on the forty: third vote Clark lost one vote te Bryan. Connecticut showed a gain of two They left the Clark col- umn. In Idaho Wilson gained one end one-half. The hall was quiet as Illinois was reached. When Roger C. Sullivan of Chicago announced: “Eigh teen votes for Clark; forty for Wil | gon,” there was great cheering. Illinois in Wilson Camp. “Tilinois, under the unit rule, casts Sfty-eight votes for Wilson,” he an- nounced, and another cheer greeted the shift. This gave Wilson a clear gain of fifty-eight votes in Mlinois. The New Jersey governor continued to gain. In Iowa he added one and one-half to ‘his total vote. When Kentucky was called and the vote was announced twenty-six for Clark, one of the delegates demand ed: “I want to know if Kentucky can vote for Wilson if a majority of the delegates desire to do so?” Governor McCreary, chairman of the delegation, argued that the instruc- tions of the Kentuckians would not al- low a break. The Wilson men did not press the point, although evidently confident of a vote in the delegation. In Louisiana Wilson gained two, and SHOOTS TWO WOMEN: THEN KILLS HIMSELF Domestic Troubles Cause of Triple Tragedy. | William H. Mowry shot his wife and | his sister-in-law, Mrs. E. J. Brown, on the lawn in front of his home at, Hastings, then went into the kitchen | and committed suicide by cutting his| throat with a razor. Both women are believed to be fatally wounded. | The tragedy occurred soon after) Mowry arrived home from the Hast-| ings state asylum, where he was em ployed as night watchman. The au thorities say the tragedy resulted from domestic troubles and that, in a fit! of frenzy, Mowry fired twice at his | wife. One shot took effect in the left | arm and the other in the breast. Mowry then fired anéther shot at! Mrs. Brown, the bullet taking effect | in the abdomen. He then ran into the | house and was found later lying on} fn Michigan eight additional votes | were obtained.

They agreed that the situation was very much “up in the air.” The standpat element in the delegation, which thus | far has been in the ascendency, were | for standing by Clark through thick | and thin, but they conceded that there | was a considerable element which felt that the time was near at hand for a! change. These were the conditions which were gone over at the early | conference. t The New York delegates were sti'\ | fm caucus when the convention met. | The Wilson adherents cheered the Virginia vote, but from the Clark forces there went up a shout of “Ryan and Bryan,” Thomas F. Ryan, who was de nounced by W. J. Bryan, is a member of the Virginia delegation. The disorder was quieted only to break out with renewed vigor as the entire Clark vote of sixteen in West Virginia went over to Wilson. In Wis- consin Wilson gained one more. The forty-third ballot gave Wilson 602; Clark, 329; Underwood, 98%; Harmon, 28; Foss, 27; Kern, 1; Bryan, 1; absent, 5%. | This gave Wilson a gain of 109 and | the floor of the kitchen dead.

Some of his former col-| leagues in the senate have suggested | that he seek a return to the seat in the house of representatives which he left when the Illinois legislature in 1909 sent him to the senate. But that, his friends say, is at least two years) away, as would be any effort to be| returned to the senate. Mr. Lorimer would have to go before the people of Illinois in a primary and it is now too late to take part in this year’s con- test. Noted Charity Worker Dead. A. W.

(@y J. W. GRIFFIN.) To prevent a door from being blown about by heavy winds. there should be a fastening at the top and one near the bottom. A hook at the top and a chain at the bottom looks like fife in the primitive age. The fastenings herewith described Are those that will stay fastened, and | they will prevent the door warping swinging out at the top or bottom | and will catch every time the door is closed. The six pieces that hold the work- ing parts to the door are made of heavy hoop iron, bent in the shape as | shown in the small drawing at (A), Fastening for Heavy Doors. and are fastened to the door by nails or screws. The dotted lines show the | position of the working parts when | the tumblers are back so that the! dvuor may be opened. (B) A coil spring that holds the| tumblers in a closed position. The; edge of the door jamb where the | tumblers rub as they pass to the sockets, are beveled so that there will be the least possible opposition to | them entering. The notches at (C) are oblong, that the pins that work in them may not bind, as the tumblers are withdrawn. The dotted lines at (D) represent a notch that is in the door, through which the pin moves when the door is unlatched. At (E) there is a piece one-eighth of inch thicker than the tumblers and the pieces that are marked (C); this permits the tumblers to move easily. There is used three-eighths-inch bolts at (E) to bolt piece (C) to the | door, and short bolt of the same size at (F) with the heads next to the door. These bolts work loosely in the | holes made in piece (C). All working parts work just loose enough to move without rubbing hard, but not so loose that there will be any rattling on the door by the wind. To open the door, the pin (D) is and as soon as released, the tumblers retain their former position, and when the door is shut, the tumblers will | slip in place and hold the door secure. | PRACTICAL BARN FOR DAIRY | Diagram Given Herewith Shows How | Wisconsin Man Solved Problem of Modern Building. The accompanying diagram shows | how a Wisconsin dairyman solved the | problem of building a modern dairy | barn at low cost, says the Prairie Far- }mer. This dairyman was also con- fronted with the problem of construct- | ing a barn on short notice as he had moved to a newly which afforded but a mere excuse of |a dairy barn. Accordingly he made his barn in the shape of a lean-to on two sides of an old but well built barn.
