Roosevelt Says He Has Mapped Out
Campaign And It Is Evident
He Will Lead
Battle
CHICAGO, June 15. Colonel Theo
dore Roosevelt, wearing his new fight
ing hat, a compromise between a som
brero and rough rider's headgear,
came into Chicago late today and was
acclaimed by thousands of his sup
porters and admirers. The hat was
in the air throughout the automobile
ride from LaSalle Street station to
the Congress Hotel, waving salutes of
acknowledgment of the cheera that
marked the former President's pro
gress. Mr. Roosevelt said tonight he had
mapped out a campaign. He was in
consultation for several hours with
his managers and then assumed
charge in person of what he termed
"this naked fight between corrupt pol
iticians and thieves and the plain peo
ple." He would not discuss his prob
able appearance on the convention
floor, but there was no doubt among
delegates that he would be there. Col
onel Harry New, in charge of conven
tion arrangements, said Mr. Roose
velt "had not applied for a seat."
"If he does apply we will do the best
we can for him," said Colonel New,
"but unfortunately, all of the good
seats are gone."
Early in the day it was announced
at the Roosevelt headquarters that the
Colonel's arrival would be devoid of
the spectacular.
Many delegates, however, would
not have it thus, and when the train
bearing the candidate rolled into the
station there were three bands and a
cheering multitude to greet him.
The California delegation, the
most aggressive and outspoken of the
Roosevelt adherents a delegation
which today issued a thinly veiled
threat of independent action if things
do not go well for the Colonel in the
convention marched to the station
in a body and escorted Colonel Roose
velt to his hotel.
They bore aloft a banner which
read :
"California refuses to try title -to
property before the thief who stole
it." On the reverse side was: "Cali
fornia's solid twenty-six for Theo
dore Roosevelt."

EUGENE, -Or., June 15. When Miss
Nancy Noon, of Portland a prominent
junior in the University of Oregon,
and Wstbrook Dickson, a freshman,
from Pendleton, eloped in Miss Noon's
automobile and were married today
in Vancouver, Wash., they furnished
the college a sensation such as it
rarely experienced.
The romance started a few months
ago, when the future bride purchased
an automobile from a local dealer and
in a friendly way engaged the serv
ices of young Dickson as chauffeur.
The impetuosity of Miss Noon who
walked into the garage, picked out a
likely-looking mahine and concluaed
the transaction in record time, was
the capital for several newspaper
stories. '
During the many trips which en
sued, Cupid was in reality at the
steering wheel, for while the fresh
man chauffeured he fully endeavored
to teach hia patron the workings of
the automobile, he won her heart and
the privilege of guiding their matri
monial car through life.
,No one guessed that the affair had
reached this stage, however, until the
announcement vas communicated ov
er the telephone today by the newly
mated pair to the Gamma Delta Gam
ma Sorority, of which Miss Noon is
a member. It was a complete sur
prise to everyone except two or three
most intimate friends of the bride
and a like number of the bridegroom's
acquaintances, to whom they had dis
closed the secret of the wedding in ad
vance. The rest of Miss Noon's sorority
sisters, however, and the other mem
bers of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity,
to. which Dickson belongs, were as
much surprised as the student body
at large.

GARY'S DECISION
State Superintendent of Schools
Alderman has upheld the decision of
County Superintendent Gary in the
case of the dismissal by the directors
of Thmas B. Lovelace, teacher of the
Viola District Mr. Gary held that the
evidence was not sufficient to justify
the dismissal of the teacher. It is
thought that Lovelace will make an
effort to collect his salary for the full
term. The controversy started over
a complaint that the janitor of the
school did not keep the building clean.
As a result the directors waited upon
Lovelace, and a fisticuff occurred be
tween him and Thomas Cockerline, in
which- the teacher was severely beat
en. He was dismissed several days
later by the directors, and appealed
to Superintendent Gary.
