VOTE OF PRIMARIES TO BE RESPECTED
Heaabllcan atate Committee te Meet
Two Days Before Convention and
District Canrnses to Be Held
Mgbt Before.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, July 21-(Speclal Tele
gram.) At the meeting of the Polk county
delegates to the state convention this sfter
noon resolutions were adopted stating in
substance that as there was understood to
be talk of protesting the Polk county dele
gates it wss the sense of the meeting that
the chairman should appoint a committee
of five to look after the rights of the Polk
county delegation. The resolutions pledged
the delegates to carry out the spirit of the
Tolk county primary by voting for all
candidates who received a majority of the
primary vote. . The committee appointed to
take steps to see that the Polk county
delegation Is seated Is judge Carr, Senator
Cheshire, Harvey Ingham, Judge Prouty
and N. E. Coffin.
Rrpnbllean Committee Called.
Chairman R. H. Spence haa Issued a
formal call for a meeting of the republican
state central committee to be held In this
city Monday, July 30, at 0 a. m. This will
be two days before the state convention
meets. A great deal of Important business
Is on hand for the committee and the addi
tional meeting before the state convention
was therefore made necessary. This year
there will be more than ordinary work on
hand for the district caucuses and It is
likely that, the central committee will de
cide to call tha .district caucuses for the
night before the convention. Heretofore
It has been the custom for the delegates
from congressional districts to meet la
caucuses and each dlstrltt name one mem
ber of the credentials , committee, one
member of the resolutions, one of th
permanent organization and a member of
the state central committee for the ensuing
year. These caucuses are held at V o'clock
the morning of the convention and are held
before the convention to economise time of
the convention. The nomination of the
caucuses are always accepted by the con
vention, which meets at 10:30 o'clock. Be
cause of the large number of contested
counties it 1 proposed to call . these
caucuses the night before, so they will
have plenty of time to fight out their con
tests and make their nominations. The
committee will consider, this at Its meet
ing. There are also other business matters
lor the committee to attend to. It i ex
pected this year that the delegates to the
state convention will begin to arrive in this
city as early as Saturday night, July 2S,
and It is confidently expected that there
will be many delegates here by Sunday. "

FEATHERS CHASING THE FUR
Lively Race Between Jack Babbit and
Hawk and Lest Beat
Wings.
All the morning th four staunch horse
had been pulling the heavy stage coach
over a sandy desert in southern Texaa.
Both the driver and myself were drowsy
and nodded from the effects of the scorch
lag sun. Suddenly the lead horses Jumped
out of the road, which brought us to ouf
senses. A large western redtall hawk that
was circling over our heads had cast Its
passing shadow on the sand directly befor
the horses, causing tbem to shy.
W commented on th rather singular
coincident and watched the big bird as. In
large circles, he gracefully floated through
the air, with scarcely a movement of the
wings.
Suddenly a "Jackrabbit," started by the
rattle of the stage. Jumped frqm It cover
In the shade ot a yucca plant and shook
Its legs over the sandy expanse and shook
fully fifteen feet apart. It had not made
ten Jumps when the hawk spied it, and
half falling, half tumbling through the air
he descended to within fifty feet of the
earth and started in pursuit. The "Jack"
had gained a good lead before It discovered
that It was being chased, but on seeing the
hawk It bent every muscle In Its sinewy
legs In an effort to outstrip Its amatlant.
Gradually the hawk drew near until he
was almost over the "Jack," then, bowing
his wings, he dropped through th lr like
a falling meteor. With feet extended and
talons outstretched he was about to snatch
up his prey, when the "Jack" stopped short
and squatted flat on the sand. The hawk
overshot his mark a foot or more. but. In
stead of turning back, he arose in the same
graceful curve In which he descended, thus
describing a large U.
No sooner had he started upward than
the "Jack" waa again coursing over . the
desert like a shot from a gun. , It had
gained fully fifty yards before the hawk
overtook it and again attacked It. Once
more the "jack" eluded the charge In the
same manner.
By this time the chase had become so
exciting that the driver halted hla horses
and we both stood up on the seat, clinging
to each other and watching with bated
breath the outcome of the struggle.
"The 'Jack' can't keep that pace up much
longer; it's pretty well tuckered out.
now. The hawk'U catch It next time sure,"
exclaimed the driver as the combatants
gradually drew near. But before the hawk
had a chance again to swoop down the
"Jack" . reached a bunch, of chaparral,
where It took shelter.
The hawk circled over the bushes and
then dove headlong Into them, but the
"Jack"' moved Its position as the bird was
about to atrlke it and again escaped -death.
The "Jack" evidently thought It safer to
fight in the open than in the hushes, for a
the hawk arose It started off again, thia
time heading for a bunch of cattle that was
feeding about 200 yards away.. The hawk
made, his fourth unsuccessful attack while
the'dlstance was being covered by the hare,
but before he was ready for another swoop
'the ''Jack" had outstripped his pursuer,
and dashing up to one of the ateers. darted
between his front and hind legs and
stopped. There It remained.
The hawk seemed to be completely out
witted. He circled about a ' few times,
then, as If thoroughly disgusted, sailed off
and was soort lost to view.
The "Jack" was still under the steer
when we drove on. It waa quite evident
to ua that the "Jack" Intended to use the
steer for a shield from the moment that
it left the chaparral, but whether It did
so because it thought that the hawk would
be afraid of so large an animal a a steer,
or because the creature afforded better
protection from onslaughts from above. Is
a question that the reader will have to
solve for himself. St. Nicholas.
TWO MINES JN A JACKPOT
Englishman Piny the Limit, Wins
and Finds I.eadvllle Claim a '
Gold Brick. ,
Risking a presumably valuable location
among the diamond mines in Cape Town,
South Africa, against a mining property In
Leadvllle and winning both mines. Captain
Oliver Jenkins of the English cavalry haa
Just returned from Ieadvllle after a month'a
careful examination only to find th Leadi
vllle property worthiese. He left over th
Burlington for the east and will proceed
at once to hla home In Liverpool.
Captain Jenkins, who waa located In Jo
hannesburg during the Boer war, became
possessed of a mining property In the Cape
Town province. In the very center of the
district that was at that time producing
it good share of all the diamonds that were
being exported. Hla time being fully occu
pied by his military duties, however, the
Englishman had never taken opportunity to
Investigate Jiis property, although believ
ing It to be very valuable.
About three years ago .Captain Jenkins
became acquainted with an American who
gave his nam aa William Everltt and hi
home aa Denver. Everltt was touting the
world and spending several months In South
Africa.
On night during a poker gam th two
mine were wagered agalnat each other,
both finally going to the Englishman.
After th war waa over he Inveatlated th
South African property. Into which he sank
much money, only to find It worthies
Then, hearing great tale of the richness
of the mines In the Rocky mountains, th
Englishman decided to visit this country
In the hopes of finding his American prop
erty more valuable than the South African
mine. After the journey of 6,000 mile to
the Leadvllle mine, a month ot hard work
showed his mine to be a bar spot on a
bleak mountain om thirty miles from
Leadvllle and possessing not the slightest
value.
"It proved to be about an even thing,
though," he said. "If Everltt had won my
diamond mine he wouldn't have gained any
more than I did In aecurtng th Leadvllle
mine." Denver Time.

Th average village store In a small set-
tlement on th coast, especially If It be a
fishing hamlet In Maine, Is a unique place,
tor there every evening, stormy or pleas
ant, gather th veteran fishermen and re
tired skippers for a "pipe-smoke" and
evening chat with their neighbors, and
usually some Interesting and exciting yarns
are related by the oldest In the group.
The aged seamen are not particular as
to seats, and the snap boxes, nail kegs
and dilapidated chair that have been
whittled for years past by every owner
of a Jack knife that takes a seat, are al
ways In demand, for It Is th company
present that holds the steady loafers until
the hour for closing arrives, and, while the
tobacco smoke rolls up to the low celling
In thick clouds and the big "barrel" siove
is kept at rever heat, the best story teller
Is th center or attraction.
Th proprietor of the country store, who
is a man of Importance In the small set
tlement, usually keeps everything that
might be called for during the aeason, and
Is usually the regular postmaster of the
village and an authority on all subjects
that come up for discussion. He is always
respected by tha villagers who pa-" the
time around his stove every night during
the winter and spring.
The usual crowd was present on the
evening in question, the tobacco smoke was
thick from a doaen pipes going steadily,
while the smokers blew out the dense
smoke from their rhouths, and among tho
collection were seated several retired fish
ermen who had followed the coast fishing
for half a century In all kinds of weather,
then had been obliged to quit for the
younger growth.
Provocation for Gray Hairs.
Among the group was Captain Jeremiah
MacDonagal, who had Just made his ap
pearance and taken a acat, after nodding
at hla neighbors; his hair was as white as
th newly fallen snow, and he had retired
a few year ago from active life on the
water, yet always was on hand to Join
In the conversation, and, aside from his
lameness from rheumatism, was able to'
get about with his stout cane.
"Jeremiah," spoke up one of the men In
the circle, "I'm a respecter ot gray and
white hairs, but I've noticed that for the
past twenty-five years your hair his been
white, and thought there might be somo
reason for it, for, as I remember you In
my younger days, you had regular black
hair, and it seemed to change kinder sud
denly, as I noticed It when I got' back
from a long sea voyage. Was It anything
peculiar, If I might inquire?"
"Well, captain, being's tha question's
been naked, an It ain't anything very Im
pertinent, as I might say, I don't mind tell
ing youse how my hair got so changed
from black to white, as I might add in a
tingle day for such Is the plain facts all
right and Just settle down on your box
seat and let me tell yer a little yarn that
might be new to the young 'una on hand
tonight,'.' replied Jeremiah.
"You all know me for a regular fisher
man nothing else always on tha spot
when, there waa anything to catch, always
on th move for 'em during my younger
days, an' nvr so much to home as when
on the deck ot a fishing schooner trying to
yank 'em In on th hooks.

"In them days it was every man for him

say, an' we uaed to go it alone most of the
'time for our catches of fish along the
coast.
"Started out one morning alone, as usual,
an' fell in with a big Bchool of fish that
seemed as greedy to get on th hooks as if
they'd not been getting their regular meal
for some time past, so got kinder excited
ss I began pulling 'em in as fast as t
could drop over the hooks on the trawl, an"
they rushed right up to the side of the
boat, all looking for more feed, an' me with I
only a small bucket full at thnt time. J
"I caught some all right, then Jest for fun
tossed over what I had left In the bucket
to see how they'd act with It, an' they
certainly did have a fine time while the
bait held out, but it wasn't a morsel to
'em, as they was so thick around my boat.

"Got kinder excited watching their ca
pers, for . they certainly seemed tame
enough to feed by hand, an'- aa friendly as
goldfish In a Jar; when all of a audden I
took a tumble forward, fell right Into- the
mess of fish, most scared to death.
"Tried to grab the boat- an' get back,
again, aa I couldn't- swim a stroke, an'
didn't know but the fltih might start on
me for chole eating, me with rubber boots
and oilskins on, but they didn't seem to
bite Into my clothes aa I could notice.
"Lid they scamper when I dropped Into
them? Well, Just a little, but not the way
I had expected, for Jest aa soon aa I lit In
the lot and was a trying to get to the boat
they started to move away In another di
rection in double-quick time, an' me right
there on top of 'em, hardly getting wet, as
they held me up out of the water aa If 1
was on a feather bed:
"Out to sea they scooted, with me on
top a fine a you please, but scared Me
Just then, and there was my boat disap
pearing from my gaxe, an' I knew that I.'
I hollered It was a case of sink and get
drowned, eo I kept quiet for a time an'
waited to see where them fish waa a tak
ing me, an' on they sped like a steamboat,
kicking up the foam in the rear.
"I kept my eyea open aa best I could, n'
was beginning to think the masa of fish
was heading for Europe all right, an' me
with no return ticket, an' a, mighty poor
chance to get away safe, but I wasn't very
wet, for they held me up out of the wster,
an' kept right on for the open sea, making
fast time, an' It must have been a great
eight to have been there an' seen me tak
ing that trip all alone, an' fish all about
me for yards.
"Well, all of a sudden, In the distance, I
spied some fishermen In their boata, throw
ing out their lines as unconcerned as If
nothing wss going on, but the fish holding
me up seemed to b heading for them boats
all right, so I held my peace and waited
to see how It would turn out. '
"Nearer and nearer we got. an" a I
looked up could see the men, then their
face got plainer, but didn't seem to rec
ognise any of 'em. ao I kept kinder quiet
and waited a w moved right in their di
rection, a It seemed I wa due to arrive
alongside their boat In ahort time, then I
had a chance fer my life again.
Hollered for Help.
"Suddenly, to my terror, that achool of

started away from the boatmen In their
