f ? WILSON LEADS DEMOCRATS PRESIDENT AND MARSHALL CV J ' . I NOMINATED. S E . * f Harmony Marks Meeting at St. Louis. gS I Nomination Unanimous and by Acclamation. p -5' ? St. Louis, June 15.?Woodrow Wilson was renominated by acclamation at 11:52 p. m. tonight by the Demo cratic convention. ' On motion of Senator Hughes, of New Jersey, the rules were suspend' eel and no ballots were taken. The delegates simply roared "Aye" when the names of Wilson and Marshall were called and Chairman James declared the nomination by acclamation. Senator Kern, nominating Vice President Marshal, discarded a long i prepared speech and simply said: "I renominate Thomas Riley Marshall."! The nomination of both candidates were completed four minutes before ^midnight. | Because the platform committee was not ready to report the Democratic convention at 12:31 a. m. re-| cessed until 11 o'clock Friday. The Democratic national convention reconvened shortly after 9 o'clock tonight, with the announced purpose of remaining in continuous session until it had renominated President Wilson and Vice President !! Marshall, adopted a platform and transacted all other business. " - All the vice presidential booms except those of Governor Morehead, of Nebraska, and Governor Major, of Missouri, had been effectually killed off by President Wilson's announcement that he desired the renomination of Marshall, and those only remained to receive favorite son com, pliments. ' Tonight, for the first time since P .1 Idle convention began, the big hall c "was completely filled. Since the distribution of tickets began the admission coupons have been shuffled about in a confusion of pasteboard and bag speculation. While hundreds of peopie have been clamoring at the doors jp for admission empty rows of seats have stretched through the galleries because ticket speculators who had obtained possession of the prized W: tickets were holding them for high * prices. jfc Morehead Boom Gone. While the convention was assembling it became known the Nebraska delegation planned to withdraw the vice presidential candidacy of Governor Morehead. The delegation exg plained that President Wilson had MR1- ./'"not ashed for the renomination of j|p Vice President Marshall when they brought out their governor's candiH dacy. At 9:15 o'clock Chairman James fe ? rapped the convention to order. The | ^Rev. W. J. Hardesty, chaplain of the p5; Missouri senate, offered prayer. The crowd yielded to the rapping of the gavel long enough to hear the ?? prayer and then renewed its demands :v for a speech from Bryan. Senator Thompson then moved a | suspension of the rules to permit Mr. Bryan to speak. When the motion was put there were some "noes," but j the chairman ruled two-thirds had - voted on the favor, gfe :' Bryan Introduced. A committee, headed by Senator jg.... Kern, of Indiana, escorted Mr. Bryan to the speakers' place, while the floor and galleries roared their apP proval. Senator James introduced Mr. Bryan as "one of the leading citizens of the world and America's greatest Democrat." Mr. Bryan spoke for forty-five min& iites and closed amid loud cheers of % - applause. Outside the hall, meanwhile, the crush had become so great that the police fairly battled with besieging throngs. t Seperal arrests were made. Ticket speculators were quoting a "last chance" rate of one dollar apiece. Mr. Bryan opened by expressing his appreciation of the^ honor conferred by the invitation to speak to ; the convention. "Every Democratic convention is a love feast to me," he said. "It gives me an opportunity to meet and renew acquaintances with men with whom I have been associated in politics for more than twenty years." He paid his respects in complimentary mnner to a number of Democratic officers and leaders of the convention. Platform Approved By President. St. Louis, June 16.?The Democratic national convention finished its work today by adopting the par+ nr-oftflw o n Kl' ijf ill cAat uj cio u * vu wj \ President Wilson and submitted by the resolutions committee, including the plank on Americanism and that favoring woman suffrage, but not until the harmony of its three days' sessions had been disturbed with a row over the suffrage plank. No voice was raised against the vigorous declarations of the Americanism plank, but at one time it J5ASS A NATURAL THIEF. So This Kisliernian Tied Him Up tc Save His Suiifish Bait. Anton Lohr, of this town, has jusl returned from Buffalo Lake, anc within an hour after his return he had told a fish story that will permanently bar him from ever holding any village office. At a late Hour to night lie still insisted it was true and now practically no one but his relatives is acting cordially towarc him. According to Air. Lohr, and without any other verification, he was fishing at Buffalo Lake last weei when a conservation warden came skimming over the surface of th( water in a little launch. Any one who knows anything about Buffalc Lake will agree that the sternest conservation employees in the world are employed there, and the mosl stringent penalties on record have been imposed by them for small violations of the laws. . "What are you catching?" asked the warden, according to the extremely doubtful local story. "Sunfish," answered Mr. Lohr, according to his own unsupported testimony. "What then," asked the warden "have you got tied to that line ofl the bow- of your boat? Isn't it a bass?" At this juncture the story becomes wild. "It is a bass," said Mr. Anton Lohr "and I am keeping him there unti] I get through fishing. He has beer swiping my bait all day, and, by the nine gods of war, I don't intend tc ! be driven off this lake by any bass, ! whatever law protects him. When 1 get through fishing for sunflsh I will unhook that bass and let him go anywhere he wants to. Furthermore, 1 have a lively suggestion about where he can go, for all I know." At this point the story becomes frantic. The warden nodded agreeably and went away.?Portage (Wis.) dispatch to the Chicago Herald. EATING PAPER NO NOVELTY. German Spy's Feat Had Been Out> done in Many Instances. .It is with a mitigated commiseration that one reads the story of how Von der Goltz, the German spy, finding himself recognized in Petrograd, "spent some hours eating two parcels of incriminating papers which he dare not burn in the grate." As a feat of mastication, Von der Goltz's by no means holds the record. Paper is easily reduced to pulp and swallowed, the ink acting as an appetizer, and the only diffi? ?yttac. tVin nnonHtv UUIL V 111 llilfi V/OOC *> CW3, buu ijuuuvikji Leather is another matter, but apart from meals of hard-pressed explorers, there are authenticated cases of meals of the kind. One took place at a Covert Garden hostelry, famous in the fashionable annals of the eighteenth century. A tipsy gaHant, enraptured by the charms of a certain lady, snatched off her shoe and, filling it with champagne, drank a bumper to her health. "Then, to carry the compliment still further," so runs the tale, "he ordered the shoe itself to be dressed and served up for supper. The cook set himself seriously to work upon it. He pulled the upper part, wliich was of damask, into fine shreds, and tossed it up in a ragout, minced the sole, cut th.e wooden heel into very fine slices, fried them in butter and placed them round the dish for garnish." WJiat may be described as a paper meal de luxe was that of the famous Fanny Murray mentioned by Horace Walpole: "I liked her spirit in an instance I heard of t'other night. She was complaining of want of money. Sir Richard Atkins immediately gave her a 20-pound note. She said: 'D your 20 pounds! What does it signify?' clapped it between two pieces of bread and butter and ate it."?London Observer. m\ V Mean Thing. Dora?And so you quarreled?

After Senator Walsh, oi Montana, had told the convention 7 that President Wilson himself considered it vital to party success, however, it was voted into the platform 188 1-2 to 181 1-2. The entire platform was then adopted without rollcall. As adopted the suffrage plank stands: "We favor the extension of the franchise to the women of this country, State by State, on the same terms as to the men."

Then followed t discovery of hypochlorous acid a the coming into commercial use ' such hypochlorite solutions as Ja1 * ^ water used in bleaching and cleE ing and the disinfecting fluid whj bears the name of the distinguish Labarraque. Such crude solutic . were even used as antiseptics in t | dressing of wounds, but owing [ their harshness they did more ha: [ than good. Dr. Dakin says that | modified a solution of hypochlori . of sodium and neutralized it w: J boric acid. The accounts of the use of the i ^ tiseptic made extravagant claims 1 it and caused much confusion.

"Controller" or "Comptroller." To the Star: How does it hi / pen that Kansas City has a "con troller" instead of a "controller We have a "controller" of the ci rency, not a "comptroller." Whi is right? J. C. All the verbal sharps, we belie1 ' are on the side of "controller." T * word comes from the French, "cc tre role." It means a person w L keeps a counter roll or check on t accounts of others. Webster defir ' it as "one who keeps a' counter r to control accounts." 1 Apparently somebody who wish ' to be impressive thought "controlle too simple and devised "comptrollei There is a French word, "comptei "to count/' which gave the wo plausibility. The Oxford Dictiona suggests that the "compt" of "con 1 troller" arose from confusion wi > the obsolete "compte," "coun Vizetelly's "Desk Book^ remarks tl " 'controller,' derived from t French 'contre role,' and indicati 'a person whose office it is to keer - counter roll or check on the accoui of others, should not properly spelled 'comptroller,' which wc > originates in a false derivation fr< ' 'compter,' 'to count.'

With the coming or the rona on the trees a Mr. Wren appeared . the porch of one of the bird-Iovi members of the school teachers' c ony and, as is customary with t male wren, began to build a nest the little house so considerately pi , vided. To make the task easier o of the household laid out a numt of pieces of wrapping twine. Wi characteristic male aversion for ovi work, Mr. Wren took the twine a wove it into a nest. When the hon ; building was complete the gent i man wren brought his lady to t scene, and after a few proud twitt( L flew to a nearby tree. Left alone i a while the little lady unwound t L string and forthwith dislodged a . threw it to the ground outside of t . house. When the master wren i : turned he quickly noted this act vandalism and promptly picked the string and replaced it. Th ! there was a violent scene, which er : ed in a separation?at least so it 1 surmised, for the little house is n< deserted.
