MILWAUKEE, Feb. 19-fhe Episcopal Com
yention reassenbled ct nine O'Clock this
morning. Most of the forenoon was occu-
pied discussing the charges made against
DIR. DeKoveas by the Nashatah professors,
especially the pamphlet by DIR. Eager, of
Nashatah, eatitled principles, Not Men, -
and which was aimed at the principles of
DIR. DeKoven. A fire-brand was thrown
into the convention in the shape Of a docu-
ment signed by fonr young students at
Nashatah, declaring that DR.. Eager bad
stated that the pamphlet was written for po-
personalities which bid fair 10 prolong the
convention tor several days Hon. Moses NJ.
Strong moved that the debate terminate.
and the business of electing a bishop be pro
ceeded with. DIR. DeKoven here rose and
asked the privilege of the floor the last hour
between eight and nine p. NJ. to define bis
position. This was objected to on the
1 ground that it would be unfair to the Hoff-
man party to proceed to the election of bish-
on under the spell Of the professors elO
ouence. DIR. DeKoyen declined making any
statement under any other conditions.
Pending the argument on this point thn
convention adjourned till two p. NJ. Th'

A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune
offers a substitute for the method of capital
punishment by hanging. 1t has been proved
by experiment that the transmission OF pain
is at the rate OF about $50 feet per second;
while according to Whearstone. the velocity
of electricity is 2SS, 900 feet for the same time.
This being the case, it would seem that
death caused by a stroke of electricity must
be instantaneous and entirely painless. All
the apparatus required would be a few large
Leyden jars and a common electric machine.
After everything is arranged, the prisoner is
requested to touch a brass electrode con-
nected with the charged jars, and death,
instant and painless, is the result.

AT THE ALTAR.-Dukes and Ducheses s
have the same qusvers of common mortals,
it seems. A descriptive letter says of the st.
Petersburg wedding: AS the ceremony pro-
ceeded the Duke seemed rather nervous, but
looked pretty steadily at Dean Stanley awhile
the Grand Duchess cast her eyes down-now
at the carpet, now at the bouquet that she ear
ried-and regarded the Dean closely only
during the usual in-terrogatories. In giving
the vow, the Duke answered in a very loud
voice, 81 WILL" which was audible ALI over
the church. When Dean Stanley asked,
"Who giveth his woman" he looked sig
~nificantly at the Emperor, who simply
bowed. In giving her troth, the Grand
Duchess repeated the words after the
voice, and with excellent pronunciation.
without some embarrassment. The duke re-
ceived the ring from Prince Arthur and
passed it to Dean Stanley, who looked at it
turned it to the bridegroom. The duke was
somewhat embarrassed 10y the prayer-book
which he held, and triesk to hand it to the
train bearer behind. Fac functionary APP
parently not understanding what was re-
quired of him, did not take the profferec
gift. The grand duchess who was waiting
then offered to take the volume, but the
duke finally mastered the d~i4SenltY, and
gracefully slipped the ring on the outstretclo
ed finger. The dean Joined the hands of the
bride and bridegroom with a great deal OF
emphasis, and held them pressed together
longer than is customary, but not even this
triple union of hands prevented them from
shaking with very obvious agitation.

A SUCKER WALwORTH. The. Paris
Gazette, Edgar county, Illinois, gives
the following account of a second Wal
worth in a less conspicuous position: Last
Saturday night Elish Cox, living eight miles
southeast of Paris, returned to his residence
intoxicated, at a late hour at night. He or
dered supp or. His wife prepared it and told
him it was on the table ready for him. He
then ordered her to get up and get him a
warm supper or be would kill her. She
started to get up to wait on him, and then
he ordered her TO lie down. His daughter
hearing the fuss, got out of bed and left the
house, and while the husband was after the
daughter, the wife with an infant in arms
lett the house and went to Ben Rhodes, one
mile, in her night clothes. Next morning
he was arrested, bound over before Esq.
Griffin in bond of $500. Monday about two
| o'clock he returned to his house. Ben Cox,
stepped to the door with a shot gun in hand
and asked: 'Father. have you come here to
whip mother again or to behave yourself!
If you have come to behave yourself and not
to whip mother, all right; but if you have
come. to whip her you shall not" Some
sharp words ensued, after which Ben with
his gun fred a broadside of nine buck shot
in his breast, killing him instantly. Ben
went Immediately to an officer and gave him
self up, ready and willing to stand his trial
for killing n of the worst men in Edgar
county. Three times heretofore this desper

CHICAGo's Cock FIaHT.-A band of Chi
cago roughs the other day went to the town
of Lake to a grand cock tournament. As a
specimen of the brutality of the people, this
extract from the account of the affair. by
the Chicago Times, is given. 1t is headed:
"Death in the Pit-AS Series of Bloody Chick
en- Disputes in the Town of Lake-The
Model Crowd that Went out and How 1t
Amused Itself-It is said the Young Mems
Christian Association was not represented
The Tourney will include a Long Series of
Battles-A Roaring Day among the Blood
tubs" The crowd were brute savages. No
Modoc braves were ever greater barbarians;
no South Sea Islanders less ashamed of
thei utter moral sbasement. AS an exam
pie of what was witnessed, and af-
forded sport to these men, this
episode is quite graphically told:
Then followed two tho~roughbreds, handled
by Chapel and another. Considerable
money was put up on this deal, Jerry Mum
roe anteing vigorously. The birds were
wicked. They dugstheir gaffs into one anoth-
er to the great delight of the audience.
Waxed each others eyes out in fine stvle.
Feathers few, blood flowed, and one cock
went down with a broken leg. The gaff had
cut through the bone. This was but'a trifie.
He still had life in him, and il was thatlife the
auditors wanted tosee picked, stabbed, and
hammered out of him.. He could not walk.
But when "time'' was called lay a picture of
misery upon the clay, where the other bird.
with the sound legs would walk over, roll
him on his back, and make a poke or two
as him with the steel daggers. Then his
Chandler would roll him over on his breast
give him encouragement to make a blow, so
that a "round' might be 'called," count ten
over his head, pick him up, suck the blood
out of his throat, smooth his feathers, and re-
peat the performance when slime" was
again called. 1t was a long match for "box-
ers," and both of the birds meant business.
At last the cock with the broken leg rolled
over on his back, and with one last vengeful
blow at his c%onqueror, sent his poniard-like
gait crashing through his adversary's skull,
and laid him on the arena-vanquished and
dead.

MIR. Garfield said if this bill was passed it
would open the sluices of the treasury to
claims from Ohio and Indiana, arising out of
the Morgan raids, and from Pennsylvania
arising out of Lees invasion. and there
would not be a cent left in the treasury.
Finally, Of motion of Mr.. Gargeld, the en-
