At the first ''(-publican national convention held 'ii Chirnno 60 vears ago: An Iowa delegate walked 150 miles 'o get to a railroad to come to the nnventlon. Special railroad rates were made nd Chicago's population probably 'oubled in convention week. Hotel rooms wero $1.50 to 2 . &0 day. Crowds were so great that billiard allies in the hotels were pressed In- o service as beds. The "Wigwam" In which the con ventlon waB held was probably about he size of the annex to the Coleslum n which this year's convention takes luce. The Wigwam's profuse decoration vas largely furnished by the repub liran women of Chicago. They were nvlted to come "nrmed and equip ped with thope formidable weapons r.eedles. thimbles, scissors, etc., etc' When a special train pulled In with the Massachusetts and other New Kngland delegates, rockets were u-nt up and a cannon boomed to an nounce their arrival to awaiting rlends. The nailery In the convention hall -as reserved for women and their e- or!s. Because of the great number if men unable to get In, one man wax reported trying to get Into the gal 'fry with an Indian squaw selling T.oVcasins as his credentials, but was excluded on the ground that she was 10 lady. The two chief nominating speeches were made in less than 30 words Abraham Lincoln was placed in nomination in 26 words. The making of the presidential lominiitlon was announced to the city by the firing of a cannon placed on the roof of the convention nan. That night cannon and rockets were fired, bonfires lighted, and mul titudinous parades formed, their par ticipants carrying anything that would serve even to rakes anu nsn inn nolea.. The foregoing data was obtained rom the library of the Chicago His torical society, which has various relics of the convention and cam paign that followed. S. O.-S.

How a thirsty inhabitant uf these United Stales iiiay-obtuiu a drink Iroin our more or less amiable neigh bor on the south, Is told in the June Popular Mechanics in an in teresting manner by John Kdwin iogg, M-bo seems to know all the iito and outs and the little tricks re forred to along the Mexican bordei by hunters of the old-fashioned, high-voltage liquor. If one is thirsty and takes a tri- to the Pacific coast. It Is only neces sary to buy a ticket over the newest of our transcontinental railroads and ride in a buffet car part of the way. Then, too, the train make stops at convenient points along the route where passengers muy step off and put one foot on a brass rail to exchange American money for uuy sort of wet goods to be found In a well-stocked American cellar. This railroad dips Into Mexico in two dif ferent places, and the buffet car, which travels In bond through the United States, la open for business as soon as the southern boundary U p&Bsed. Of course, bringing liquor out of Mexico for future use in the United States Is contrary to law, but Ameri cans who are thirsty are likewise in genious. A favorite passengers' method that has thus far defied the vigilance of the federal authorities 's that of railroading the stuff with he aid of a Mexican accomplice. There are usually a lot of poverty stricken peons hanging around the Mexican railroad stations to whom Untie Sam's dollars speak with loud voice. As the train is about to start he hangs a jug or bottle Inside the trucks of a Pullman car, or other wise conceals It abutit the train. Later when the train stops at some way station In the United States, per- hpps well over Into Arizona or Texas, nnd far from the gaze of border of flclals, the passenger steps out. He nnows where .o look for the lug. and then a little party Is put on In the Pullman smoker. Then, too. pints nnd half pints fit very nicely into I'uiiman car water coolers, venti lators, and other numerous hiding Places about the average transcon tinental train, and even If a customs officer happens to find them it ii rather difficult to say Just who ptil them there. That hot-water bottle? and Ice bags are also bandy prohlbl lion-dodging containers is Indicated by the fact that the druggists in the border towns declare they nre ni longer able Co keep this kind of good In slock. Prohibition is the least of thi worries of Americana living along the Mexican border. An American has but to sallv u to ono of the fences that separate the United States and Mexico. Th government has erected heavy bar bed wire structures on the line a' ill the points of entry, but the" do not completely close the border by any means. A Mexican on the look out for this kind of business, pro duces the desired bottle, holds It close to the fence, and hands the American a straw. The straw lf again passed through the fence, but this time the end that Is In Mexicc ?:oes Into the neck of the rattle, and the end that Is In the United States goes into the American's mouth. The rules of the game are that the Ameri can exhales before going Into action then he shuts bis eyes and sucks in as much liquor as he is able to swal low without taking another breath For sanitary reasons, manv Ameri cans carry their own rubber tubes for this form of prohibition dodglni? hut the Merlins limit the size thnt may be urd to one-eighth of an Inch interior diameter. The Mexicans also sell eggs thru the International fence, and several grown-up men standing on thf American side suck them! As a mat ter of fact the eges are onlv shells. the contents of which have been re moved and replaced with whiskey, gin. wine, or other varieties of alco holic cheer. The eggshells, after be Ing filled with liquor, are sealed with paraffin, and the dry customer after buying one has only to pick off' the seal and help himself to the thirst quenching contents. "s7o.

Will Repair The Suspension Bridge Extensive repairs are to be niadu to the North Uinpqua suspension bridge In the forest reserve Ihl mouth and a crew of men uudoi Deputy (Supervisor O. A. ilonebrake will leave this city about the middle of the month to start the work. The bridge was put in ten years ago and siuce that tlmo has -had no repairs made.' The engineers constructing the bridge were forced to rush the lob and used freed fir timber in Its luilding. it will probably be found necessary to rebuild two of the tow ers as the cables are slightly out of line, but only repair work will be done this summer. As soon as the bridge Is put In proper condition to stand the travel over it, the workmen will endeavor to secure sufficient cedar timber to rebuild the sections which must be replaced and It will probably be found necessary to float '.he logs down the river several miles lo the bridge. The timber will b cut nnd allowed to season before being put into the bridge and It is believed that It will need no more attention for a number of years. This is one of the largeet suspension bridges maintained by the forest service. VKKS ItKK KWKATKR. MINNEAPOLIS. Minn.. June K. Georgia Friedman, 10-year-old school girl of Deephuven, a summer resort ji Lake Minnetouka, recently saved her life by flagging a speeding trol-! ley cur with her red aweuter after her foot caught In the "frog" of a switch. j The girl wis on her way to school when the heel of her Bhoe Jammed In the "frog" as she crossed the tracks. In face of the speeding car. which was coining toward her at a rale of 60 miles au hour, she lore off iter red sweater and waved it as a danger signal. The niotnrmnn stopped the ear a few inches from the girl. When nil was over and her foot freed from the rail, she collapsed. "Hill" Naylor in ( Ity . W. K.
