THEY HAVE HIRED A HALL.

Itis generally understood that Chairman
Barnum is to spend several days in Chi.
cago, conierring with leading Democratic
politicians. Several Of the western mem
bers Of the committee who have been inter
viewed here Of late, are overwhelmingly
in favofof Chicago, and tits thought that the
programme hes already been cut and dried
to have the convention held here as being
the most central and eligible point for all
parts OF the country. Another significant
TACT is that W. G. Goudy, the local member
Of the committee, has engaged the Exposi.
ton building for the last week In June. =

now on his return to the East to prepare

"The 22d Of February Is the usual date
Of the meeting, and / see nothing at pres.
ent which will interfere with its meeting
next year on that date"
There has been some talk OF ills meet
ing about the 9th or Sth Of January. Is 1t
likely either Of these dates viii be chosen2'
"There has been some talk OF it, but l
have been unable to see what advantage
there could be in departing from the usual
rule. ] den'tthink now that there would
be sufficient time to give notice aud get the

Mr.. Bsrnum wes asked what he thought
about Chicago as q place for holding the
convention, but on this point he said he
preferred not 10 give an opinion.
He said 1t was somewhat early to talk
about presidential nominees on the Demo.
cratic eide, and, in fact, as q member Of the
committee, he had nothing to do with the
campaign. A new committee would be
appointed by the convention for this pur.
pose.

he Is out Of the race. Mr.. Tilden will not

"Will the Democrats split on the tariff"
"My POSITION Is we'll known. I do not
believe the tariff will be an issue with The

Sultan storms SiambouI.
CoNsTANrlNoPLE, December 23.-The
widest excitement prevails in Constanti-
nople, and palace and diplomatic circles
have sustained a shock unequalled since
the tragic death Of Sultan Abdul Az'z.
The present monarch, who has been pic
tured as an uncommonly mild.mannered
Turk, is beside himself with rage, and
stamboul trembles at the echoes
of his anger. The cause OF
all this is simply a pretty
widew. One year sgo she was the young
bride Of Kimzim Bey,. who had been the
frst secretary Of the palace, but was then
out OF office. He lived in a palace oppo-
site Scu.ari, surrounded by every luxury,
including a harem, Of. which the fair
heroine Of the: present escapade was the
acknowledged queen. Kia,zim died some
months ago and his widow has since made
the most OF the comparative freedom which
Mussulpan practice has lately accorded to
her condition.
During the summer she was frequently
found at Bnyukdere. Bsbek, "the sweet
waters" and the other romantic resorts in
the vicinity Of the capital, and was pro.
nounced by many foreigners the loveliest
woman in Europe, having worshippers by
the score.

0ne, q handsome y.ung attache Of the
Belgian Embassy, who is said to bear
the title of an ancient Baron in
Belgium, pressed his suit with de-
termination and success and soon won the
widows heart. But race and religion were
apparently insuperable obstacles TO their
marrisge. The Bsron'sarder and woman's
wit suggested an elopement, and Stamboul
is now Mortified by the unprecedented
scandal Of a wealthy and lovely daughter

to Paris. where she abjured the M6slem
faith, embraced Catholicism and was duly
married to her Caron.

Hunyadi Janos water may be beneficial 10
the health, but it is one Of the most unpala-
table waters in existence. 1t tastes like COM
pound of bitter aloes, Rochelle salts, EPSON
salts, carbonate of soda and asafoetida. Yet a
Boerne man advertises that he sells it by the
bottle or the drink. That mans head is level
for business. 1t will take many good drinks
to clear the mouth of the bad taste Of that
water. The LIGHT, after this, will not be sur
prised to hear of decoction of bitter aloes
being sold as beverage or the paste as a
