THE ARTISTIC TEMPERAMENT.
William Cooke, husband of Grace
MacGowan Cooke, the writer, has sued
for divorce. After living with him
for nineteen years his wife has left
him to pursue her literary career, tak
ing their two children with her.
1
Mrs. Cooke will probably excuse her
conduct in deserting her husband on
the worn out plea of possessing an
artistic temperament, that intangible
something which moves its male pos
sessor to wear his hair long and don
Bowing cravats and which moves a
woman to imagine that she must have
liberty to give full sway to her soul
flights, unhampered by the confines of
the home and the conventions. Some
times common sense ,comes to the
rescue in time to hold the family to
gether, but not always.
In this case, evidently, the common
sense was lacking, for after leaving
\her husband, Mrs. Cooke joined Upton
Sinclair's literary colony, Helicon hall,
^remaining until the place burned down
jit^Hind the literary personages quartered
.. there sought other places of shelter.
11 Mrs. Cooke doubtless believes that
•"-•ir -she has a mission in life that is great
er than her duty to her home a burn-
SKjpng message to give to posterity that Is
J^Shigher than her wifely duties.
Where Mrs. Cooke was wrong was
ss^In ever marrying. Many other women
find time to write and yet attend to
the home duties. Many of the men
I rank high in literature, too, are hus
£%rVbands and fathers, and instead of flnd
^ing the home ties irksome and a
hindrance to their literary work, they
I? find in the home an inspiration that
K^makes their work distinctly more
^4 worth while.
l\ Boiled down, then, this artistic tem-
Perament, is monumental selfishness
||J£'?.and over-developed ego. Its posses
P" sors, whether they be writers or
stevedores, all brain or all brawn,

§§S: HENRY CHADWICK DEAD.
S|p. Just how much credit is due the
§|||iate Henry Chadwick for the perfec
Ipgtlon attained by the game of baseball
gl'may remain a question, but that Mr.
^Chadwick did more than any other
man in the early days of the game to
I popularize the sport, is not question
er ad, and' his right to the title of
"Father of Baseball" will not be dis
puted.
Mr. Chadwick was the first to rec
agnize the good points of the game
and it was largely through his efforts
J*- that the press was induced to take
ill"up the sport and give space to it. He
^-.-perfected the rules, simplifying them
jpwsas much as possible, and as baseball
"•^editor of the New York papers he
rendered valuable services in placing
,baseball on a higher plane than oth
ff^er sports.
54
In late years there has been no
need of Mr. Chadwick's writings to
maintain interest in the sport, for
A^baseball has become in fact as well
w, as in name the "National Game." But
he will be missed, nevertheless. As
^editor of Spalding's guides he has
I1, shown a wonderful knowledge of the
I statistics and records of the game,
,*• and as a member of the rules com
«.'• mittee of the Natioal league he has
had mucji to do with formulating the
changes which have added improve
ments to the sport.

THE MERRY WIDOW VINDICATED

Stepan of St. John's cathedral at St.
Louis can bear witness. At St.
John's yesterday, as at other St.
Louis churches, and as at churches in
other cities besides St. Louis, thero
were many Merry Widows on
display. At St. John's, too,
as at other churches, the
wearers of these millinery creations
sat well up in front in order that all
who were there might see.
During the service some paper
lilies caught fire from the candles and
the blaze spread rapidly within the
sanctuary rail. The priest feared a
panic and brought the services to an
abrupt pause, as he formed the altar
boys into a bucket brigade and
fought the flames. When the lire was
subdued the services were resumed,
and no one in the church seemed to
know that there had been a break In
the program.
Then it developed that the worship

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS.
From the Chicago Tribune:.—Are the boys and girls whose
mental equipments are not adapted to the curriculum of the
public schools to be allowed to leave school and enter poorly
paid industries, the only ones open to them, or remain idle
during one of the most impressionable periods of their lives?
This, in brief, is the problem which the state of New York is
trying to solve. The solution is being worked out by the bu
reau of labor statistics of the New York state department of la
bor, under the direction of Prof. Charles R. Richards, director
of manual training in the Teachers' college of Columbia uni
versity. The actual work of the investigators was begun the
first of this year, and the result of their labors will not be known
before next fall. Meantime much interesting and valuable in
formation is being obtained from manufacturers, employes, la
bor unions and parents.
The first step wiil be the collection of data with which to
work, after which such schools may be established as the
exigencies of the situation, as shown by the investigation, de
mand.
For this purpose the bureau of labor statistics is making an
investigation as to the supply of skilled labor in the industries
of the state and as to the conditions under which-boys and girls
enter the industries and their opportunities for advancement.
The bureau asks the co-operation of the manufacturers by fur
nishing as fully and accurately as possible the information
called for in schedules sent to the employers of labor.
"This investigation," said Prof. Richards, "is one looking
principally to the supply of skilled labor in the state. The con
verse of it is the condition under which the boys enter the vari
ous industries. We are attempting to find out whether any
system outside of the schools can be made to assist in a situa
tion where th^ere is a lack of skilled labor. In some industries
they train their own workers. There are, however, certain un
derpaid industries, mostly where the employes do hand work
where the supply of skilled labor is inadequate and where we
have been dependent for years on a supply from abroad. As
tor example, more than 95 per cent of the skilled workers in
the tailoring trades are foreign born and gained their training
on the other side. The same is true of the finer branches of
dress and waist making. We have learned that the quality and
quantity of the work that is being done is limited by a lack of
workers. In other skilled industries, such as the building
trades, where the old apprentice system has fallen away the
great problem presented is the matter of proper training
the front were seated so close to the
sanctuary rail that they could not
see the flames. The crowds in the rear
were in a position to see the flames,
but they could see nothing but hats.
Thus was the Merry Widow vindicat
ed and thus was a panic avoided.
Rev. Father Stepan was not at all
backward in giving the wearers of
the hats credit for preventing a fire
panic. He said:
"Undoubtedly the women's vanity
led them to. get up in front, where
their millinery of much magnitude
.would be the observed of all observ
ers.
"That fact is all in the world that
obviated a pellmell rush for the
street.
"I am convinced that had it not
been for the line of Merry Widow
hats before me this morning the pa
pers would have had to tell of scores
injured in the church and possibly of
deaths."
So in St. Louis the women will set
their Merry Widows at a more rakish
angle and will wear them with pride.
In Kansas City they evidently feel
differently about it, as this is the
way one of the newspaper poets from
that place speaks his mind:
Hat,
Widespread and flat,
What
Have they got
Fixed to your frame?
Bees,
Sections of trees,
Birds all aflame!
Flowers,
Wonderful bowers
Plants in the pot.
What
Have they put on this hat?
Gosh!
What have they not?
Mme. Eames, the prima donna, gave
out an interview yesterday in Chicago
in which she said she never looked at
another woman's clothes. "I do not
know or care," she said, "what other
people wear so long as I get along
all right. It ought not to concern
anyone what other people have on."
Then Mme. Eames went on to make
herself more clear. "Not only am I
a peculiar woman on this question of
clothes," she said, "but on other
things. I am absolutely devoid of any
trait which might be called curiosity."
Mme. Eames then began to talk of
other subjects as the interviewer drew
her out and soon she was saying:
'T can't conceive of a woman wear
ing such a thing on her head as a
'Merry Widow.' It must be awful to
carry such a load.
"And j'ou say it is the rage. Rage,
ah, that is a funny thing In this coun
try. In France there are no rages.
Women do not put on just any kind
of clothes that happen to be popular.
Each one dresses to suit her own fig
ure. But here—it is terrible to think
of—people wear garbs that sometimes
are acceptable to their figures anil
sometimes are entirely out of place.
"I would like to have a chance to
appeal to the American woman to use
a hand glass when she dresses. By
that I mean to look at the back and
side of her head as well as her face.
Women—they are peculiar creatures.
The majority of them work for hours
before a glass getting their faces
ready to be seen in public, and never
once think of how, the side of their
heads look. The back hair may be
down, but as long as the face looks
good it is all right with them."
Mme. Eames can't be so different
from other women after all. And she
is not altogether consistent. First,
she says she does not care what other
people wear and pext she tells them
what they should wear and what they
should not wear. And yet perhaps
she honestly believes she is different
from other women.
The revenge meted out to the
luckless citizens of New York by a
delegation of 118 trade excursionists
from Tulsa, I. T., because they were
not properly entertained, must have
been a blow to the Gothamites. The
Tulsa delegation refused to parade
through the streets with its band.
Jokes on Banker's Scrip.
(From the Commercial West.)
Wits, wiseacres, and would-be poets
have had their pass at the public
clearing house certificates and as the
issue of the Seattle Clearing house as
sociation now in process of retire
ment comes into the hands of Secre
tary J.
w.
Spangler of tho executive
committee many facetious comments
are found recorded on the currency.
"Don't let this happen again" is the
command of one anonymous individual
through whose hands one of the tens
passed. Evidently a $5 certificate
found a warmer welcome in another
quarter, as one of them was indorsed
"Good-by 5 I hate to see you go" was
the command of one holder of a $2
note, while on the back of a twenty
was the observation that "An ounce
of prevention is worth a barrel of
clearing house certificates."
"Very hard cash," "Take back your
gold," were among the other sentence
sermons.
As usual the limerick fiend got in
his lines, some of which in no other
way would even find its way into
print, while others were good. For
instance, the recipient of one of the
$1 bills thus recorded his sentiments:
A bunch of bum banks in Seattle,
Who had gold in their coffers to
rattle
Did form a committee,
Right here in this city,
And thus with the panic did battle.
The next man who got the note
thought he could as well, and ,to quote
the words of the court poet in "King
O'Keefe," he. "had an inspiration,"
and this is what happened:
There was a young man in Seattle,
But the banks turned him down
When the panic struck town,
Now he's out on a ranch herding
cattle.
In many cases merchants stamped
their names and addresses on the
certificates to get incidental advertis
ing while the note circulated. Bank
stamps indicated that many of the
certificates passed through the same
route as checks, having on them the
number of the receiving cages.
A $10 certificate set one poor fel
low wild for more of the same kind
and this is the way he relieved his
feelings:
In days of old, when banks paid gold,
And grafters held their sway,
And grafters bold, with tons of gold,
Sang merrily his lay—sang merrily
his lay—
"By Jove, it is not fair,
There's lots of gold in there,
And silver, too
By all that's true,
It's ours, if we but dare,
It's ours, if we but dare!"
It is seriously suspected that one
bard had read Mother Goose in his
days of youth. This is what he evol
ved:
God made man and man made
money.
But when you come to use ft,
It ain't so funny.
Memorandum of oppointments and
other notations, from wifey's instruc
tions to buy a pot roast to engage
ment dates of all kinds, were recorded
upon the backs of the certificates,
while telephone numbers galore sug
gest that they were found convenient
as temporary telephone directories.
Retirement of the certificates Is pro
ceeding steadily, those outstanding on
Feb. 15 aggregating $39,364. The issue
was $1,150,000 and the banke went on
a cash basis Jan 20.

THE OTTUWMA CPU BIER
How Candidates For
Presidency Are Nominated
Since the presidential campaign of
1832, candidates for president and
vice president have been nominated
in national conventions. The methods
followed in organizing and in con
ducting their business is practically
the same In both democratic and re
publican conventions, except that In
the republican the nomination is made
by a majority vote and the voting is
done by districts. In the democratic
convention It requires a vote of two
thirds to nominate and the unit rule,
by which the vote of the majority of
the delegates from each state is re
corded as the vote of the state, is fol
lowed.
By Henry Barrett Chamberlain in the Chicago Tribune.
Each convention selects a national
committee consisting of one member
from each state and territory. This
committee has charge of the cam
paign, and is in authority until super
seded by the action of the next con
vention. It issues the call for the con
vention, determines when and where
it shall be held, makes, through sub
committees, all arrangements *as to
the hall and other necessary details,
and prepares a list of minor officials.
The call for the convention is us
ually Issued about six months before
the meeting, which takes place some
time In the summer preceding the
election in November. The committee
meets and hears the arguments ad
vanced by representatives of the dif
ferent cities which covet the honor
of entertaining the convention. The
city selected provides the hall and
pays the general expenses of the
convention. At times It has given a
bonus of money to induce the com
mittee to decide in its favor. Denver
won the democratic convention for
the coming summer by pledging itself
to pay $100,000 toward the campaign
fund.
The number of delegates to each
convention is double the number of
senators and representatives in con
gress. Each state elects four delegates
at large, twice the number of its sen
ators. Each congressional district Is
entitled to two delegates. Delegates
are alpo admitted from the territories
and from the District of Columbia,
but with no right to vote unless this
be granted by the convention.
Shortly before the convention
meets, the national committee pre
pares the temporary roll of the con
vention by passing on the credentials
of the delegates. It also prepares a
list of the contests. The roll of dele
gates prepared by the committee is
the oillcial roster of the convention
and those whose names are listed are
entitled to take part In the proceed
ings of the convention until the con
vention, in passing on contested elec
tion cases, decides otherwise.
The national committee selects the
temporary chairman and other tem
porary officers. This action is «ubjeot
to the will of the convention, which
usually approves the appoiiitment of
the committee, though not always. In
1884 Powell Clayton of Arkansas, the
temporary chairman selected by the
national committee, was rejected by
the vote of the antf-Blalne men, who
gave the position to John R. Lynch
of Mississippi, a colored man.
Admission to the proceedings of
the convention is by ticket. Each dele
gate is given two or three for his
friends. Alternates, who In case of
the absence of the delegates, would
take their places, and members of the
press are, of course, supplied with
tickets. Each committeeman has
twenty-five. The rest of the tickets
arc given to the local committee for
the citizens of the town paying the
general expenses of the convention.
The republican convention of 1860
was the first to admit a large number
of spectators. A special building, the
Wigwam, was erected at Chicago, the
convention city. It had a seating ca
pacity of over five thousand and was
full at every session.
The chairman of the national com
mittee calls the delegates to order on
the first day of the convention's meet
ing. After prayer, the call for th's ccn
ventr'on is read and the chairniiin
ramfs the temporary chairman, who
gives an address.
The ll.it of minor officials, inoludinr
tb- sp-.gt-ont at arms and iho mar
f-h'ilf vrhf: are to keep the 'a*gi as
semblage in order, is read and ap
proved. The committee on creden
tials, rules and order of procedure,
permanent organization and platform
are appointed. Each state names a
member for each committee. Each
state delegation has Its allotted place
and speaks through its chairman.
The committee on credentials is
given the official roll as reported by
the national committee and the list
of contested seats. This committee on
credentials is most Important as it fi
nally decides which delegates are to
participate in the work of the con
vention. In 1886 t&ere were 168 cop
tests before the republican conven
tion. The southern states promise to
bring as many more to the republican
convention of 1908.
Thte nominating convention Is an
American invention evolved In answer
to the demand of the people for a di
rect voice in the selection of their
candidates for offlce. In the first two
elections, the people were so united in
their desire that George Washington
should preside over them that there
was no necessity for nominating any
other candidate than he. When he re
tired, each of the two parties so clear
ly recognized its leader that thore
was no competition and no need for
stating formally that John Adams
would be the choice of the federalists
as Thomas Jefferson was that of the
strict construction party.
In 1800 there" was less harmony. A
small and secret meeting of democrat
ic congressmen was held to arrange
a party nomination. This may be re
garded as the first congressional cau
cus. It prepared '.ho way for the nom
ination of presidential ean3idates by
congressional cancuses, a practice fol
lowed from 1804 until 1834. In 1804,
the republican-democratic "or iemo
cratic members of congress unani
mously nominated Jefferson for pres­
ident and George Clinton of N«\v
York for vice president, in 18i3. lSi2,
and 1816 the same course was follow
ed, but dissatisfaction with this
usurping action otf the part of con
gress waxed so strong Uiat in 1824
only sixty-one attendsj ho nominat
ing caucus. Its candidal'!, William
Crawford of Georgia, came in tuinl at
the elei- 'on.
In New York a call for a state nom
inating convention was made as early
as 1813, but found little favor. In 1824
a New York state convention com
posed of as many delegates as there
were representatives in the assembly,
to be phosen by voters opposed to
Crawford and In favor of restoring
the choice of presidential electors to
tbe people was called to meet at
TJtica.
In 1828 Andrew Jackson was rec
ommended as a candidate for the
presidency by the legislature of Ten
nessee and at popular gatherings. The
first national convention was called
by the Anti-Masonic party In Septem
ber, 1830, and was held In Philadel
phia The national republicans, after
ward called whlgs, held a convention
in 1831 and unanimously nominated
Henry Clay for president. This con
vention recommended the calling of
a ratification- meeting for. 1832. -The
friends of Jackson approved of the
new method and called a national con
vention in-Baltimore in 1832 and the
system was established.
The first national committee was
organized In the election of 1848 by
the democratic convention.
The republican national convention
held in Chicago, June, 1888, is mem
orable for its long session. The con
vention sat from June 19 to June 115,
though it took only eight ballot.ti to
nominate Benjamin Harrison of Indi
ana. The wounds inflicted during the
fight time failed to heal. John Sher
man, who for seven ballo.ts was In the
lead, asserted in his autobiography
that he had been betrayed. Walter Q.
Gresham, another candidate, felt that
he had'been badly treated by Harri
son and would not support him for
election. James G. Blaine of Maine
was traveling In Scotland when tho
convention assembled. He had refused
to allow his friends to make him a
candidate. Some of them insisted on
voting for him until the sixth day,
when a cablegram from him directed
that his name be withdrawn. Laf.er'ho
telegraphed his congratulations to
Harrison and accepted the portfolio
of state in hiB cabinet. After. Harri
son's second nomination in 1892, the
Plumed Knight uttered no worn of
felicitation to the presidential candi
date, though he did send a cna^vsjru
latory message to Whltalaw Reld, the
candidate for vice president.
When the convention of 1838 mot.
it was at sea as tn whom to aelect.
Among the names formally preseri'^d,
besides those of linerman, Gresiiam
and Harrison, wore W. B. Allison of
Iowa, Chauncey Depew of Nov
York, Russell A. Alger of Michigan,
Joseph R. Hawley of Connecit uc E.
H. Fitler rf Pennsylvania and Jere
miah Rush of Wisconsin. Others who
received votes 'leie Blaino, John J.
Ingalls of Kansas, William McKinley
of Ohio, R"bert T. I mcoln of Illinois,
Joseph Forake. of Ohio, Frederick
D. Grant of New York, Frederick
Douglas of the-DwMct of Columbia,
William P. Phelps of New Jersey and
Creed Hiyi.ond of California.
After the seventh ballot AU'aon
withdrew 1 is nams. His supporters
threw thiSir votes to Harriso and
part of Sherman's fcrces doserted to
him. Hi*nison was nominated by a
total n{ M4 out of 8'U votes. Tbe tick
et-was rempleted by the nomination
on tha trst ballot, of Levi P. Morion
of New rk for vie presidcr Wil
liam O. Bradley, th3 republican whom
four fi'.mocrats recently elected
United Eifii.es senator from Kentucky
was a candidate r.t tins- conveniici- for
ihe vl i.residency and received Ki3
votes.
John M. Thurston, the temporary
chairman of the convention of 1888,
states that through some miswording
of the speech in which the national
committee chairman presented Thurs
ton to the convention, he became tem
porary chairman without the custo
mary formal approval of the conven
tion.
This convention of 1888 was the
fourth of five to pass upon Blaine's
name. For a period of twenty years
he cherished the hope which in his
case, as in that of Henry Clay and
Webster, was dead sea fruit.. With
the exception of Clay he was candi
date for the presidential nomination
a longer time than any other man. His
name was presented to the con
ventions of .1876, 1880, 1884, 1888 and
1892. Four, times he failed of a nomin
ation and when he won It in 1884 it
was to see his party defeated for the
first time in twenty-eight years.
Just before the contest of 1876 his
conduct as speaker of the house had
been made the subject of an investi
gation by congress. He had been ac
cused of using his position for person
al advantage. Though his friends de
clared that his explanation to the
house completely vindicated him, it
was an unfortunate episode to happen
on the eve of the assembling of a na
tional convention, which he hoped
would name him as presidential nom
inee.
Rutherford B. Hayes received the
nomination. Though it was Blaine's
first defeat, he had a foreboding, jus
tified by after events, that he would
never accomplish his highest ambi
tion. He said to Colonel A. K. Mc
Clure, who saw h'lm soon after the
Cincinnati convention: "I am the
Henry. Clay of the republican party
I can never be president."
It was at the convention of 1884
that the Tammany opposition to Gro
ver Cleveland, Blaine's successful' op
ponent, tried to break down: the unit
rule In tbe democratic convention.
The attempt met with defeat. Four
