advice in great chunks from Butler He told them
that if his delegation would not stand by him he
would pull out Of the race. He was anxious that
Massachusetts, should not fritter away her influence
by scattering her votes, and that if the delegation
were true 20 him and would follow his lead he
would get them such candidate as they wanted.
He denied that he had ever contemplated making a
barter with Blame for the vote OF the state. and
said that he was opposed TO his election. II the

BUTLER TO SUPPORT CLEVELAND.
The report that General Butler had sent an assur-

regarded as specially significant In view OF
the fact that after the first NewY0rk caucus to day
Bntler and Kelly held a long private conference TO

The recent rains old over the Southern portion of the Pacific Coast, have made the farmers hearts rejoice, and have given an impetus to ali branches of busi- ness. The rain in Yuma was phenomenal. both in the duration of the storm and the amount of water which fell. The question naturally arises: Is our climate changing from dry to wet?

of the highest order, and he has frequently been spoken of as America's greatest orator. He has also lectured successfully. A short sketch of his life in an exchange closes as follows:
 With all the tastes of the patri- elan and the culture of scholar. Phillips had an unselfish and charitable character. In his per- sonal apparel he was always plainly dressed. yet scrupulously neat. He was well off. worth perhaps S15O,OOO or $2OO,OOO, but was too generous to be very wealthy. and with hls alarge pro- fessional income lived in no bet ter style than many a clerk on a moderate salary. For the last 35 or 40 years the home of the or ator has been in Essex street, Boston. It is a rather narr w brick house, three and f stories in height, simply fur' nished, with the name of "Phil- lips" painted in black letters on a dark ground on the door. He was ever kind and induleent 10 the two or three servants in his employ. The interior appoint ments of his house impressed the visitor with the idea that it was the home of a man of taste and wealth, with all the comforts and conveniences of life, yet free from any superficial ornamenta
 tion or ostentation. Phillips was a devoted husband, and like In- gersoll, attributed hIs prOudest success in life to the influence of his gentle and loving wife. -.

In Portland, Oregon, they do things up in proper shape. A young man made ungentlemanly proposals to young lady named Hill, when the latter's mother and father accompanied her to his place of business, and helped her administer sound logging upon his worthless carcass. He must have thought that many Hills, mak a mountain; but un- like the unregenerate at the judgment day, he will never pray that these Hills again fall upon him.
