"They lnive never given us n bit of

tain Mulhcrin. "When tliej cwno In
I remarked thnt they certninly did not
look like men of I he murderer type.
They are bearing up us well ns could
be expected under Mich trying condi
tions. Of course the death house is not
the nio-t cheerful place In this prison.
However, wo make the stay of the in
mate there jut as pleasant ns possible.
Wo give them everything they wnnt In
the line of food, nnd there nre other
privileges that they get not accorded to
the other inmates.
Accorded Privileges
"It is my nim to be ns mcicifiil ns
possible to those unfortunate enough to
(ome to me as prisoners in the death
hoif-e. Thoso poor fellows are entitled
to consideration nnd they get it just
nil far ns possible without violating the
rules. Any request within reason Is
complied with, and the inmntcs are
allowed to .see their immediate lelnthes
once a week. I hose going to the. ehiiir
nre entitled to take their last fniewell
of their immediate family twenty-four
hours beforo they ure put to denth."
The keeper said thnt no one answer
ing neither the name or description of
Mnrj Mctinrvey had called to see Schuck
or hnd written to him.
"We carefully peruse all mail to con
demned prisoners," be said, "and keep
from them letters we feel they should
not get. 1 know that Mnry MrOnrvey
has not been here Inquiring for Schnck.
and I Know that no letters were sent
br her to Schuck.
"I do not nnticipnie any bieakdown
on tlic part of either. Thej .seem to lie
perfiitlv resigned to their fate, but, like
oil other inmates of the death house,
they arc possessed of u belief that the
tiovernnr will intervene nt the liibt mo.
meat and grant them n renrieve. It is
well that the poor fellows do become
nihueii vitn tlint belief, becnuso it
keeps them from brooding. Then we
have other ways of breaking the monol
onj of the death house."

untM." Sco Colorful Campaign
1'hlladeluhlans who like n dash of the
colorful nnd the spectacular with their
pontics arc llKcly to see n brand new
kind of a ticket nominated In the pri
maries, Drnmntlc elections in this city in tho
past have been epitomized under such
descriptions ns "Down with tho Mur
der ticket" and "No fifty-fifty division
of the spoils."
This year the "Halnbow" ticket may
be observed In the political firmament.
Like Joseph's coot, the full list of can
didates an nominated will be remi
niscent of that ancient garment of many
colors.
Keen observers arc of the opinion thnt
the nominees will be found to represent
women of all the fashionable shades of
politics, and men wearing the colors of
Senator Penrose, the Varcs and the
Voters League.
The general staff of the combine will
figure out a mathematical scheme by
which certain blocks of votes In speci
fied and controlled wards will go to
certain candidates, and until tlic votes
hnve been counted it will not be known
Just how the scheme works out. Hence
the chance for surprises nnd the en
hancement of the prospect for a "coat
of ninny colors."
Of course, nil this may be upset in
(he event that Senator Penrose thun
ders a broadside against, the Varcs.
Then (here would be n rcnl split nnd a
smnshlng of the combine. Hut the com
bine leaders hope they will be let nlonc
to work out their own destiny nnd at
the same time save the face of the
senior Senator.
Combine leaders nre counting heavily
on threo things:
First. That Senator Penrose will say
nothing nnd trust to the combine to
keep him straight with the independ
ents. Second. That the field can be seem
ingly kept open until It is too Into for
nuylhlng like a real battle between the
independents and the organization
Comblno leaders predict that it will be
light, and say that the reason for that
Is that the registration days were set
no early in the game.
Philadelphia's registration days arc
Tuesday, August 30 j Tuesday, Septem
ber 0, and Saturday, September 10.
Many thousands will be out of the city
for a certainty on the first registration
day, ns they will not liavo returned
from their vacotions.
Just to show how theso dates work
In favor of the organization and
against tho independents, reference was
made to tnc fact tlint tlic registration
doys in Pittsburgh nnd Scrnaton nre
later,, insuring that nearly every man
or woman who desires to be registered
will bo in the city. Tho dates in thoss
two cities nre September 8, 18 and 17.
Ixolc Ahead to .Mayoralty
Senator Penrose apparently Is paying
more real attention to tho gubernatorial
ticket for next year than ho. Is to
tho local ticket. He would like to see
the situation hero work itself out, not
In too "raw" a fashion, it was ex
plained, so that he would not bo ham
pered In picking a State ticket.
And the comblno is highly favorable
to this general idea and hopes that Pen
rose will find It too hard to break nway
from such weighty considerations ns
revision of nntlonnl taxation, the tariff
and ids own sphere of intlucncc at
Washington.
Then, too, tho combine is willing to
wear a coat of many colors If It will
help to keep nil the organization lead
ers together for a grand rally around
n harmony condldnto for Mayor to suc
ceed Mayor Moore.
,It will be a happy day for organiza
tion lenders if they can gleefully sing,
"Hall! hall! tho gang's nil here" when
the candidate for Mayor is selected.
They won't care what kind of n
coat he wears, they say, if only they
can prescribe the kind of collar.

ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR MONDAY
The Second Week of the August Furniture Sale
Will Bring a Relatively Larger Number of
Customers to This Store. Here's the Reason:
THE first day of the Sale exceeded the selling record of the
same day last August by thousands of dollars. The first
week, despite several days of unfavorable weather, was
remarkably active. But a large number of prospective Furniture
buyers were taking our alvicc and shopping around the city.
Many of these shoppers have not yet bought, but they have com
pared they have learned that Furniture prices everywhere arc
very much lower than last year. They have learned, also, that
the best-selected stock of the KIND OF FURNITURE IN
DEMAND by home furnishers of good taste and good judgment
as to QUALITY and VALUE, is to be found in the Strawbridge
& Clothier August Sale.
THAT is why we say the second week will bring a relatively
larger number of customers to this Store than the first
week, and a relatively smaller number to stores where the
Furniture is of lower grade, and to stores where there is a top
heavy accumulation of over-elaborate, high-priced. Furniture.
We are fortunate in having an ENTIRELY NEW STOCK of
fine handsome, beautifully finished, moderately priced Furni
ture, from the foremost manufacturers in this country, all at
less than regular prices and a large portion of it at half and less
than half the recent regular prices. Yes, it is now pretty gen
erally known that best Furniture values are here.
