The mighty question OF the ventilation OF
theatres. opera houses and concert rooms Is
again coming forward at the beginning ofthe
season. IL Is rather hard to buy an even
lng's entertainment at the cost OF head
ache or a chest oppression. Both may
lead TO further complications, and produce
real sickness. To breathe for two or
three hours a foetid, vitiated air is not
a very exhilerating circumstance and
scarcely calculated TO enliven our temper
aud make us cheerful or happy. This is
most likely the reason of half the gentle
men In an audience tramping forth during
shape OF spirits, wine or beer" II houses
of entertainment were properly ventilated
the fresh access OF air would certainly be
more refreshing than the cocktails, which
are but calculated TO increase the feeling OF
uncomfort and unrest. In fact. the matter
might be brought before the temperance
association; that ought TO take up the venti
lation of theatres as an item Of its program
IL might do more good than some of the
preaching on temperance.
All ventilation has 10 proceed on woprin
ciples: Let In fresh air at the bottom, LEI

the draught can be established below and
the outlet above, and q periodical impuls,
upward be given, every theatre might be
made suhciently wholesome to pass few
hours In It, Al present there Is so littl,
done in this matter that some OF our bes
theatres become almost unhearable, whei
full, in a couple of hours. The opening o
the fall season should certainly call fortl
some remarks that Will draw attention to I
subject so thoroughly important as "gooe
and proper ventilation" In places of enter

NEW YORK, Oct 2s.-The split in the Re-
publican party over the city ticket is widen
Ing. The opposition to the ticket is gaining
steadily among the decent Republicans. who
say they wont register or vote at all for
Blaine or any one else. The Blaine man
ayers became alarmed at the large outspoken
disapproval, and Steve Eikins thought he
would fix matters. He brought pressure "a
bear on the nominees to induce them To de-
cline, In order to hold q new convention and
nominate a new ticket, and was partially
successful. The nominees for Mayor and
Comptroller declined, and more will
decline tomorrow. There will be a
new Convention Monday night to nom,
inate new ticket The Republican
business men say they are disgusted, and be
lieve there Is fob behind the new ticket
On the other hand, 0Brien and the machine
are intensely angry al Eikins for thanking
them and forcing their nominees to decline
They say now that Elkins viii hear from
them on election day. They will get even
with him through Blaine. This split OF the
Republicans has made the State sure fof

Republican machine of the city, aud Il Is
certain now the machine Is at heart against

Especial D1spatcn TO the Boston Journal.)
CHICAGO, June 6.-At 1l.30 o'clock the
clerk began calling the roll of States for the
first ballot amid hush of stiffness. Each
chairman arose as his State was called and
announced the vote of his delegation. A COL
ored man ffom Arkansas, after his State had
been announced as for Arthur, s for Blaine
and for Edmunds and the delegation was
polled Powell Clayton was thus put on record
fol Blaine. The result was not changed.
Announcements such as those of California
and Iowa, which were solid for Blaine, were
received with cheers, and occasionally sibi-
liant sound from the audience greeted some
unexpected Southern vote for the President
Mr.. Roosevelt moved to adjourn, bat cries OF
"Call the roll" and wild hurrahs from The
Blaine men drowned him out, when ne at
tempted TO explain. The motion was put and
lost, but New York, Pennsylvania, North
Carolina and Massachusetts protested. The
sergeantat-arms p2raded the hall, and for a
number Of minutes dire confusion prevailed.
Mr.. Bingham of Pennsylvania, William W.
Phelps of New Jersey and one or two colored
delegates endeavored 10 get hearing and
gesticulsted without succeeding in being
heard-their voices being drowned in tumultu-
Gus yells, cheers and demands for call of the
roll. Not deferred by their failure, Roose-
Welt of New York, carried away by the excite
ment got up on his seat, waved his arms and
appeared as II he was saying something.
Before the vote of Alabama was given there
wrs another uProarious scene, in which
Butcher, Roosevelt, and other New York DEL
egates took prominent parts. 1t arose upon
the technical point that motion to take re-
cess had been made and had been decided
the chair in the negative. although calls ha'
been made for vote by States AT last, s
Blaine delegate appealed to his friends to
have the vote on the recess taken by States,
and at so the vote BY States began. The Hi
nois delegation requested few moments for
consultation a. to its vote and then it was an
nounced as 70 to IS.
