SHIRTS
THERE arc very few shirt makers
.who have been making shirts for
as many years and as good shirts as the
Arrow manufacturers. The long experi
ence, the patient study of patterns and
materials and the slow but steady up
building of a corps of trained hands is
behind the excellence that is hallmarked
by an Arrow Shirt label.

At 3:40 o'clock p. m. the platform

"We concluded we ought lo have

like the one which presented itself
in the committee room this morning.
"With the feeling of fraternity in
our breasts again one of the commit
teemen nrose and recited the Lord's
prayer nnd then Mr. Hryan lifted up
liis voice in a plea for divino guid
ance. "At the unanimous request of the
committee 1 ask this great conven
tion In the Interest of the parly to
adjourn until 3 o'clock this after
noon." There had been a burst of ap
plause, when the name of Mr. Hryan
was mentioned and an interruption
little Inter from a delegate who
shouted that the speaker was Indulg
ing In argument, but not the an
nouncement for which he had been
recognized.
On tho whole, however, the con
arms to quiet down the arena and
induce the delegates to return to
their seata went for nothing. The
aisles through the delegates ses
sion were jammed with disputants
owr the paramount Issue of the
convention and it seemed almost un
believable that the throng could be
brought to order without much et
lort and great difficulty.
Ily this time, too, the spectators
who had Jammed Into the aisles In
the galleries had become so num
erous that the whole was one solid
muss of sweltering expectant human
ity. It was one of the largest
crowds that ever packed Itself into
I the historic old amphitheatre.
! At 3:51 thA chairman riimieit for
order and the crowd quieted down
long enough to listen to a routine
announcement by the convention
secretary when the delegates and
galleries realized, however, that the
pounding ot the gavel did not mean
the beginning of the business for
which they had assembled, there
was an immediate reversion to the
disorders of a few minutes before.

Attracted by tho prospect of a Bpec

who held the tickets for the garden
assembled long before the hour set
for convening. With them came
many thousands more, precipitating a
dense crush about the doors of the
convention hull nnd keeping busy

The delegates came in with grave
f'ees. The hour of opening formali
t.es and anieniites was over; the con
vention and the party were facing a
irisis; nnd there was not a man or
v oniiui In tho quiet, serious assem
blage who did not curry on their
tion, and the delegates gave hi in a
loud welcome.
Just as 4 o'clock. Senator Walsh
again lapped for order and this
time t lie session actually waa under
way. Kabbl Stephen S. Wise of New
York, pronounced the Invocation,
praying that divine providence
would "guide the decisions of the
countenance visible recognition of I convention and help us to, be broth-
rly and kind to each other, but no
less courageous for the right."
There was a wave of handclapplng
after the prayer as Rabbi Wise,
who had taken the place on the New
York delegation! vacated by the
dea:h of Charles K. Murphy, of
Tammany hall returned to his seat
on the convention floor.
Another widespread consultation
of ihe leaders on the platform was
in progress. It came on that Wil
lla.ni 11. rattongall of Maine who
had seconded the nomination of Sen
ator I nderwood had been selected
to actually present the minority re
port of the Klan plank to be de
fended later by Secretary Colby In
debate.
The delay in completing details of
the arrangement took so long that
the band was given the signal to
lake over proceedings. It did some
Mondav. No good as a soothing melody, as Its
whether that i leader had determined that there
the seriousness w hich the fight would
raise In party history.
Continuing conferences among the
leaders in a final ifl'olt to effect a

the floor of those whose word "would

Tho platform committee meeting in a

abo was making another try at a
compromise but the rank and file of
the delegates appeared con inced
that all of these endeavors were

lenthm Itself was In for a battle to a

Krautz had cut off the heads of 12r
