Two Women of Means Killed While Per-
petrat;ng Robbery.
GALVESTON, June LA Ne,us special, Dallas:
A desperate attempt at robbery occurred near
Clear Lake, Collins county. A farmer, named
Bradley, left 1900, received for cattle, with his
wife, for safe keeping. A stranger asked to
stay over night, and was given room. At mid
night ne saw two men, he supposed belonging
to the family, entering. Hearing
cries of murder he looked through
the blinds, and saw the woman
the bed with her throat cut. Snatching q
six-shooter the stranger shot towards the door,
killing both paCties. Mounting horse he rode
to the nearest neighbor, and accompanied by
a party of four returned and found Mrs.
Bradley and both robbers dead, one of whom
was shot through the heart, the other through
the head: The robbers proved to be Mrs.
Pruett and daughter, the former sixty years
old, owner of considerable property independ-
ent of an inheritance of $4,000.

CHICAGO, June 2, 1:35 A. MA caucus of
Grant men was held at the Palmer tonight,
at which it is reported 325 delegates were
actually present, and forty more accounted
for. This makes total of 365
and lacks fourteen of enough
for the nomination. The caucus
was somewhat informal, but viii meet again
this morning to make things more binding.
I have these figures from several different
sources, and believe they are absolutely
reliable. There can be ; no mistake,
I think, about the number present
and the only error, ii any, will be in the
claim of 40 absentees. If Grant lacks but
fourteen now, the reader can judge whether
the probabilities are not in favor Of the ad-
ditionai number being found before the roll
call.

State would vote as a unit, aud refused to be-

signers that they had actually signed it. He
made personal appeals to the so-called kicke,s,

accused of perfdy. and who responded very
firmly in their own defense. Finally. after a
four hours session, a vote was taken on the

the morning. The only really noticeable

MAINE DEMOCRACY.

BANGOR, Maine, June 1.-The Democratic
State convention met to-day, s. J. Anderson
in the chair. He declared that if Grant should
be elected to the third term the fourth and
fifth term may be given him, for then the un-
written law that no President shall have more
than two terms will have been broken. Re-
cess. 14 sa7e- =
At the afternoon session the following dele
gates at large were elected to the Cincinnati
convention: Darnes Alden, John B. Redman,
Arthur Sewall, Bion Bradbury Alternates:
Capt. Charles Chase, Bron Wilson, George
w. Drisco William A. Cromwell.
The Democratic convention ratified the norn-
ination of the Greenback convention for COVER
nor, Harris III. Plaisted. The committee on
resolutions submitted a majority and minority
report. The minority report favored local
option liquor law. This created intense excite
ment, so that the speaker was totally unable to
keep order. After arguing the matter pro and
con, it was finally decided to lay it on the
table. The convention voted to leave the
election of Presidential electors in the hands of
the Democratic State committee, who are to act
in conference with tht Greenback State COM
mittee. The convention then adjourned sine
die, without adopting any resolutions.
THE GREENBACKERs.
BANGOR, Me-, June 1.-The Greenback
State conyentlon was held here to-day, John
Booster, temporary chairman. General Har-
ris w. Plaisted, of Boston, was nominated by
acclamation for governor.
The resolutions i'll substance are as follows:
That all currency, whether metallic or paper,
necessary for the use of the people, should be
issued and controlled by the government,
ana not by banking corporations. That the
interest-bearing debt of the United States,
which shall become redeemable in the year
1881, or prior thereto, should not be refund
ed beyond the power Of the government to
call in said obligations and pay them at any
time, but should be paid as rapidly as posi-
BILE, and according to the contract. The
mints of the government should be ope-
rated to their full capacity in the coinage OF
standard silver dollars and such other coin
as the business interests of the country de.
mand. The civil service should be reformed
so as to abolish the evils of patronage. That
Imprisonment for debt be abolished.
Delegates to the Chicago convention were
instructed to influence the nomination of So
lon Chase for President.

NIGHT FIGURING.
GRANT CONFERENCE.

CHICAGO June 1.-The movements OF the
Grant leaders about the Palmer house this
evening gave rise to much query, and when
Cameron, Conkling, Logan aud a large part of
their following assembled in one room at 10
o'clock tonight the curiosity was redoubled
and the activity of correspondents largely in
creased. From facts which have leaked
out, it is now known that
the Grant managers are much
less confident of securing q nomination on the
first ballot. in fact are pretty well convinced
they cannot secure it. Ii they should not and
should fail to secure an increased vote on the
second ballot, it is stated with much circum :
stantiality that the Grant leaders have decided
TO throw the votes which they control (some
300 to $3.50 for Edmunds. The
claim is made that this
WOULD NOMINATE EDMUNDs
as against any other candidate or combination.
The meeting to night is said to have this ulti-
mate object. Although the Grant men still
keep strong front and claim they have about
400 votes, it is common expression ON the street
tonight that the second, third or fourth choice
is a much more probable winner than the first
choice. There was rumor on the street tonight
SHERMAN HAD WITHDRAWN,
but when traced uD it proved to have no more
foundation than a telegram which he
is said to have sent friend, saying
the unit rule ought to be beaten, and advising
that it be done even if it should sacrifice him.
The anti-Grant men say the rule is now beaten
even if the vote is 4sKen by States, for many
of the States hsy@ decided to-day to vote
against that rulse despite the fact that a ma
jority of theirlnumber favor Gen. Grant. IF
the unit rule is abolished, as it will undoubt-
edly be, the opponents Of Grant claim the In i.
dividual vote would make majority aeaiHst
it of over one hundred.
THE PENNSYLVANIA DELEGATION
took vote on chairman and elected Cessna by
q vote of Is to 21 over Beavan. The twenty
one votes were all from Blaine men, and the
vote is regarded as test of the feeling respect
ing the unit rule. paper similar to that
signed by members of the New York delegation
was circulated to-day among the Pennsylvania
delegation end received twenty-one signatures.
To Offset the breaks in those two States the
Grant managers are canvassing among the
Southern delegates and claim gains. The
Grant leaders have made the claim that if the
Illinois contestants fail to gain seats, that
their
CHANCES FOR NOMINATING GRANT
are assured and that the danger of defeat viii
be passed. The friends of Sherman and
Blaine, en- the other hand, express equally
the confidence that they have made
gains other than tn se in New York and Penn

roarlese and ,rnru,hful Judge

I once heard this anecdote ofJudge Par
sons, the great Massachusetts advocate and
lawyer. 1t is said that being about to try
mercantile case he ordered a jury to be
summoned, and among the names was that
OF Col. Thomas II. Perkins, the leading
merchant of Boston in that day, and per-
sonal friend of Judge Parsons. When the
officer made his return, he laid down fifty
dollar bill before the Judge.
"What is that?" said Parsons.
"Col. Perkins says he is very busy indeed,
to-day and prefers topay his fne."
"Take that back to Col. Perkins," said the
Judge, "and tell him to come here at once /;
and ic he refuses, bring him by force"
When Col. Perkins appeared, the Judge
looked sternly at him, and sand, "What do
you mean, sir, by sending money when you
are summoned to sit on this jury ?"
Col. Perkins replied: al mean no disre-
spect to the Court, your Honorj but was
extremely busy fitting out ship for the
East Indies, and thought if paid my fine
might be excused"
"Fitting out ship for the East Indies''
shouted the Judge; and how happens 1t that
you are able to fit out a ship for the East
Indies I"
"Your Honor, do not understand you"
al repeat, then my question How is it
that you are able te fit out ship for the
East Indies? If you do not know, will
tell you, 1t is because the laws OF your
country are properly administered. If they
were not, you would have no ships. Take
your seat, sir, with the ury."-Jaaes Free

Oriole. The elite Of New Orleans was gath
cred within the princely mansion of the
wealthy Mrs. Sturtevant. 0riole, the CEN
tire of attraction, was conversing with some
of the most famous and influential men Of
the timej groups were gathered near her
all eyes watched her with admiration, and
more than one pair beamed with love.
Like Mordecai at The gate, Guy Severance
stood near; his eyes basiisk like, never left
her face. He was a worldly, unscrupulous
man and for the first time in his sordid
life, was madly in love.
"Beautiful isn't she?" remarked some one
at his elbow, and turning, Guy, saw man,
whom he well knew for his petty pride
pride of birth and station-which swept
everything else before it from his life. A
thought darted into his heart. He answered
boldly:
"Yes; she is very beautiful and as she
stands now, she reminds me of tho first
time ever saw her."
"When was that2''
Guy glanced around the room; half
dozen People drew near; his words had
reached oriole, and she paused in her con-
versation.
The whole room was quiet, as though un-
der a spell. Severance mentally gaugcd the
aristocratic assembly, ere he answered with
a very perceptible sneer:
al first saw her on the streets of this city
five years ago; she then was playing lin
earnest) the role of the Bohemian Girl and
earned her bread after that fashion. She
was a common street singer"
An awful silence fell upon them all.With
white face, but proudly flashing eyes, ORR
ole turned her queeply head, and gazed full
into his face.
"Yes," she said, calmly, in clear, bell
like voice that vibrated through the wide
apartment. az remember it, too was
but friendless, orphan child, and you in
suited me-"
AT that moment Carl Sturtevant made his
way through the surprised group and paus-
ing at Orioles side, took her hand in his.
"My friends he said, his fair face grave
and decided, "should any of you be inclined
to waste thought on the cowardly words of
yonder puppy, remember that, in few days
this lady becomes my wife. And, very
proud am to add that when we were be-
trothed, she was only a street singer"
His mother drew near 0riole, and passed
her arm around the waist Of the young girl
Now as Mrs. .Sturtevant was very wealthy
and leader of fashion, her deeds, in the
eyes of the world, were always right, and so
the entire company hastened to flock around
0riole, to congratulate, and Aatter,and show
her that her position with them was as
sured.
The next morning Carl waited upon Mr.,
Severance, to demand an explanation ofthe
intended insult which had fallen so wide of
its mark. But he found his rooms empty,
and the bird flown. They meyer met again.
In the drawing room of the Sturtevant
mansion hangs a small painting-a wildly
beautiful girl, with flashing eyes and looks
of scorn. Sometimes Mrs. Carl Sturtevant
pauses before it to say, with trembling lips
which belle her happy face
"Only street singer"
And when her husband, in answer, laugh
ingly interposes, she adds, eagerly:
"Yes and didn't | do it well?"

It was evening. Miss Murray is sitting

moonlight, and the redolent spirits of the
hon sysuckle and syringa are waiting bliss
to their already intoxicated souls.
"Would little birdy object to me smok-

"Not at all" replied Miss Murray. at

for anything"
"Then III light one"

face, it is 50 soothing and dreamily paradis-

Then he lights cigarette, and they talk
about the weather for two hours and half
