NIGHT SESSION.

The throngs that besieged the convent N
hall for the evening session have been far
greater than at any previous session of the
body. The main floor, the stage, and til e
galleries were packed to OVERLOOKING, and
there could not have been less than ten
thousand persons within the building be-
fore o'clock, while there were hundreds
of people outside the building holding
tickets. Chairman Henderson called the
convention to order at 7:35. and announc-
ed the business to be the presentation OF
candidates for president.
A motion was made and carried tina
five hundred tickets be issued to veteran
soldiers.
The secretary then proceeded with the
call of the states for members OF the IA
tionsl convention.
Colorado, Kansas and the territories ask
ed to be passed.
The secretary next began the roll call OF
states for nominations for president.
When Connecticut was reached, Mr..
Brendigee, of that state, rose and took the
stan and amid .Oud applause and in
brief speech prop osed the name of
GEN. JOSEPH r. HAwLEY
as a candidate before the convention for
to the presidency of the United
States. Mr.. Brendigee sketched the polit-
ical situation and qualifications demanded
Of candidate OF this convention. He
spoke in substance as follows:
If q choice be made wisely it will
lnaugerate the seventh successive republi-
can president, if unwiseIy the solid South
which has already captured the capital,
will occupy the white house, and the result
Of the war will be rolled backward for
generation. Never before TO a national

 Another Sort of species is the Wife of d settler on the line of the Southern Pacific, whose house was submerged by the recent floods. Her husband was absent at the time, and for five days the plucky woman lived upon the roof with her five small children, and subsistiug upon Il few potatoes she had carried up from below in the confusion. When rescued by a relief boat last Saturday, she was asked by d reporter whether she had not suffered a great deal.
 "Well. Yes," she replied; "it was pretty rough, that's a fact. |. The nights were awful cold and we only had one blanket between Us. and that was wet. After the third day the children kept cry ing all the time for something to eat, and when 1 divided the last potato l most gave up all hope. On the fourth night tree came floating by with a big wildcat on it. and the creature jumped on our roof, too"
 "Great heavens! what did you do thtn?" exclaimed the horri. fled listeners. "Why," she re. piled, simply. "I just nailed down through ike trap door and got Tim's gun off the rafters and shot the varmint. You bet we had feast then.

 ''Ihope he mty," responded the old man. "but he strikes me as a very f1ippant, impertinent young person, and in my opinion he should be sat down upon."
 Well 1 have invited him to take tea with us this evening. !" said the daughter, "and I hope you will treat him politely at least. You will fad him a very different person from what you suppose him to be-"
 "Oh, I'll treat him polity enough" he said.
 That evening Mir. Millikln ar- peared at supper, and made most favorable impression up on the old gentleman. "He is a clever young fellow after alI," he thought. II have done hime an injustice 1"
 It was just here that Bobby spoke out-Bobby was we'll meaing little by, but too talk ative.

 "That's him." said the Sheriff, who had been looking around under the benches without sue cess.
 "Why, then" continued the foreman, "about half an hour ago he-cards, gentlemen-he asked me to step out and take a drink, and-I see your raise-and when I showed him I held a flush, he said, Smother time, then,' and walked out"

 "Why didn't he throw fol

 "Oh, he said the lottery man knew him and wouldn't let him

He stood in with the game so that you drew a big prize for the the capper. created a big excite ment, and you and the crowd sailed in and lost all the money you had. I'il bet he was a man with q velvet coat and mus- tache dyed a dead black and waXed as sharp as cambric nee- dle."
 "Yes; that's his description 10 a dot. I wonder if he did that a purpose"
 Well, tell us about it. It does me good 10 hear a blamed fool tell how he lost his money. Do you not see your awkward ways and general greenness struck the capper the first thing, and you not only threw away your own money, but two or three hundred other wappy jawed peiicans saw you draWa big prize and thought it was yours, then they deposited what little they had. and every thing was all right"
 fWeH. I'll tell you how ' was, f il will do any good and save other young men in the future:
 ''You see this capper. ss you cali him, gave ma a S1 bill 10 throw for him and l put it into my vest pocket along with the $i bill the fatsts,~ gave me. l al- ways carry my money in my right hand vest pocket. Well, I sailed up to the game, big as old Jumbo himself and put S1 into the game. As you say, l drawed a big prize, s20 and a silver cup. The nan offered me $5 for the cup and I took it.
 ".Ihen it flashed across my mind that I might have got my dollar and the other feller's mix ed, so I says to the proprietor. l will now invest q dollar for gent who. asked me to draw for him.
 "Thereupon 1 took out the ot- her dollar, and I'll be eternally if 1 didn't draw brass IOcket worth about two bits a bushel."
 I did not say auy thing for long time. Then I asked him how the capper acted when he got his brass locket.
 "Well, he seemed pAined and grieved about something; and he asked me if 1 hadn't time to go away into a quiet place where we could talk it over by our selves, but he had T kind of cruel, insincere look in his eye, and 1 said no, 1 believed I didn't care to, and that 1 was a poor con versationalist anyhow, and 50 I came away and left him looking at his brass locket and kicking holes in the ground and using profane language.
 "Afterward 1 saw him talking with the proprietor of the lottery and fe"l somehow that tn ey had lost confidence in me. l heard them speak of me in jeering tone of voice, and one said as 1 passed by: There goes the meek eyed rural convict now,' and he used an oath a. the same time.

THE STOCKTON FAIR.
Comments Upon the Absence of Agri-
~ cultural Display.

Comments Upon the Absence of Agri-
s. cultural Display.
The REcoRD-UNIoS, in referring to the
fact a few days since that the absence of a
Pavilion, or other suitable place for hold
ing fair, at Stockton rendered it impossi-
Bile for any agricultural display this year,
and in this connection suggesting that that
city, or San Joaquin county, should pro-
vide suitable building before next season
for such display, as the so-called fair was,
without it, reduced to merely horse races,
was speaking only of facts as they existed,
and not with view of casting any asper-
sion upon our neighboIing city.
The Stockton Mail quotes the RECORD
UNIONS remarks, and says The advice
is absolutely sound. The Agricultural As
ISOLATION should by all means have a Pa
yilion before the time for the next fair
arrives, even if the county has to build it. /"
The Nal, pursuing the subject, sought
an interview with l.. U. Shippee, President
of the Agricultural Association of that dis
trict, and who is also Director of the
State Agricultural Association, in which
interview the following occurred:
Reporter-Will there be a Pavilion in connec-
ton with the fair here next year?
Mr.. Shippee-Pll tell you what it is, the peo-
pie decided not TO give the association Pa
vilion or land for Pavilion. So we concluded
to let them see how well they could get along
without Pavilion. They have seen. In order
to draw a crowd to the city You have to have
something attractive for the women; where
women go, men follow. The fair cannot be
q success without o Pavilion. Sacramento, at
her last fair got back to her citizens the $4,000
she granted tor the Pavilion there. [S45 900 he
should have said.-EDs. RECoRD-UsIoN.
Rep.-But is there to be Pavilion display
next year or not?
Mr.. S.-Not unless there is a Pavilion. Either
the city, the county or the citizens must donate
o Pavilion before We have another agricultural
display.
Rep-A private company might hire hall
for the displays as was formerly done by the
Association. Masonic Temple, for instance,
with its large hall, ante-rooms and extensive
basement would be good place.
MI S.-No, sir there is not a hall in the city
large enough. The display must be in one
room. Look at Sacramento, with her Pavilion
four hundred feet square. We want u building
at least three hundred by two hundred feet
ground dimensions with gallery around it.
In speaking of the fair in that city, an
other prominent citizen of Stockton proph-
esied that the doing away with the Pavilion
display would result in successful revolt
against the Agricultural Association. He
that next year a company should
be formed to take in hand the Pavilion
matter and prevent further disaster and de-
to the Association, from its be-
ing conducted, as this year. upon simply
horse race basis
