Compliment From Portlander
As the three fire apparatuses slith
ered up Bond street yesterday noon
in answer to the call from the Utzin
ger home, a Portland gentleman hap
pened to be standing at the corner of
Seventh street where he got a good
view of the flying wagons. He re
marked to a bystander (who proudly
quoted hitn a few moments later),
that "after a number of years' service
ia the Portland fire department he
Bad not ever seen any better work in
getting to a fire, nor in the quick and
proper disposition of the men," than
was shown there yesterday; all of
which is properly appreciated here.
It if a pity this discriminating Port
lander's name was not secured, for
rare as is the June day of the poet,
such commendation from a metropoli
tan citizen matches it accurately.
DENVER
'S BIG HALL
A Pest
A pest known as the "black ant"
has worked considerable damage on
the roof of the Shively school eating
holes about the size of a small pea
through two thicknesses of shingles,
and so many in number that during a
heavy rain, the water leaks through in
large quantities. A composition of
tar and asphalt will be given the roof
which is expected to exterminate the
pests.
How Macaroni I Made.
This Is bow macaroni Is made: To
rery glutinous wheat flour is added a
plentiful supply of dried eggs. Mixed
with water, this becomes a dough,
which Is so thickly kneaded as to be
difficult to Impress with the fingers.
Tlu.n it Is carried to a round press
perforated with holes, through which
the dough Is pressed by means of a
heavy plate worked by a screw. The
result is macaroni without holes in the
sticks. Pipe macaroni U made through
a slmiliar press, with the difference
that a round piece of metal makes the
central hole. As it issues in long,
Bnaky ropes from the bottom of the
press they are violently fanned to pre
vent them from sticking together and
are afterward taken out into the open
and laid on long bamboo poles to dry.
Two or three days' exposure in the
warm, sunny air of Italy makes the
dough pipes hard and brittle and fit to
use for food.

Colorado City Is Proud of Its Great
Structure, Which Is a Handsome
and Endurable Building of Granite
and Steel A Stately Hall.
DENVER, July 7. A practical test
was applied today to the great con
vention hall, which the people of Den
ver have erected especially for the
Democratic National convention. Let
none entertain the idea, as did many
of the delegates before their arrival
here, that the convention is to meet
in a great barn-like temporary struc
ture, hastily flung together with frail
and inflammable materials to serve
somehow for one occasion; of doubt
ful acoustic properties and scant fit
ness for even a temporary purpose.
The first impression the stranger gets
from a view of the building is that
of permanency. Granite and steel,
brick and concrete have been used
without stint. This is first of all a
vast house for conventions, not only
this one, but many yet to gather from
all parts of the country. On the other
hand, for the people of Denver it is to
be a home theater, well planned, con
venient and of reasonable proportions
to house in comfort audiences to be
gathered in a wideawake city of
nearly 2()0,(X)0 people.
The building, of pale gray brick and
granite, occupies the entire Four
teenth Street half of the block on the
east side of 14th Street between Cur
tis and Champa Street on the western
edge of the, business section of the
city and within easy walk of the hotel
and railroads. It is a massive struc
ture effective in design and with a
beauty of its own. There is entire

and Lung Troubles. Prevents Pneumonia and Consumption

absence of tawdry, "ginger bread'
effects and the lines are simple and
stately, yet graceful and pleasing.
Within the arrangement of the audi
torium appears to be especially well
planned to secure the utmost of ca
pacity and the greatest convenience
of the delegates and others desirous
of seeing and hearing. The arrange
ment for the, platform and seating
differs from that of the Chicago Col
iseum in that while there the plat
form was at one end of the Audi
torium, it is at the side, so that no
auditor is more than half the length
of the hall from the speaker. The
reservation for the delegates and
alternates is in the center, extending
clear across the hall; the space for
spectators are at the ends and in the
ample galleries.
The arrangement of entrances and
exits is more than ordinarily effective
and it is said that in case of emer
gency the auditorium could be emp
tied and every person be on the
street within two minutes. Fire ap
paratus is located at convenient
points and fifteen streams of water
arc immediately available. As a mat
ter of fact the building is practically
lire proof, the floors arc of concrete
aid the only material of an inflam
mable sort is in the tcmparary plat
forms and stairways erected for this
convention and the immense amount
of bunting used in the elaborate dec
orations. These decorations are more pro
fuse than at Chicago in a harmonious
scheme of national flags and red,
white and blue streamers. Masses of
flags are placed at appropriate points
while the ceiling is covered with Red,
white and blue stars, each bearing
the name of a state. Over the rost
rum is an immense portrait of Wash
ington, with Jefferson at one side and
Jackson at the other, while from the
middle of the opposite wall facing the
speaker's dais another portrait of the
late President Grovcr Cleveland. A
very large number of incandescent
electric lights is used in lighting the
hall.
CONVENTION
(Continual from ptg I)
the llryan forces by second the reso
lutions present by them. Governor
Francis, who was a member of the
Cleveland cabinet, in tribute to the
former chief breathed the spirit of
personal association and deep admira
tion. With the adoption of the reso
lutions the enventin adjumed until
noon tomorrow.
Henry D. Clayton of Alabama was
selected as permanent chairman of
the convention. For other officers
the temporary selections were made
permanent.
The committee on rules of order
of business was adopted without
change the rules governed the con
vention at St. Louis.
The selection was made lively for
time by the presentation by John T.
( licks of Arkansas,, following resolu
tion: "Resolved, that in all cases where
the national convetnion is in conflict
with the action of the seat conven
tion, the action of the state conven
tion shall be constructed to control."
Several of the members hotly de
nounced the resolution as undemo
cratic and unworthy of the demo
cratic party; that the convention en
forced to unite the rule but left the
matter of instructions as to the can
didates to the conscience honor of
the delefiales. Hicks withdrew his
resolution, a bitter fight was thus
averted.
Immediately after being caller to
order the platform committee pro
ceeded to carry the wishes of Bryan
declaring Governor Haskell of Okla
homa the permanent chairman.
Governor Broward of Florida ar
gued in liberal pronouncement of im
provement of the waterways.
NRichard Pearson Hobson and
Cgressi)ian Alabama presented the
plea'for the incerasc of the navy, de
clared .the imminent danger of war
with Japan and predicting war during
the next presidential administration.
Samuel Gompcrs, John W. Mitchell
and other labor leaders present, ar
gued for the consideration by thi
committee the suggestions which hi
been tendered to the resolutions corir
mittee in the Chicago covention and
asked that they be incorporated in the
platform. Senator Stone of Missouri
asked Gompers whether the original
injunction plank purporting had been
drawn by Roosevelt and Taft, but
which the republican convention re
fused to adopt would be satisfactory
to organized labor. "The American
Federation of Labor not only does
not want thtat declaration but would
be poposed to it," Gompers replied.
