DR.. G. G. Tyrrell moved that the platform ant
resolutions be adopted as read. Carried.
The next order of business was the election o
fifteen delegates 10 the Stockton Convention.
General Carey moved that the Convention
take areeess for thirty minutes to allow the dis
trict delegations TO select their delegates ant
afterwards select the delegate at large.
AT tins time Peter Byrne Democrat of thu
Fourth Ward jumped inside the railing and ad
Vanced to the center of the aisle. Cries o
- Put him out came from several quarters. i
took the united efforts of two Sergeants- ARMS
to accomplish that feat
Carey's motion to adjourn for thirty minutes
met with decided opposition at the hands o.
the majority.
Dr. Durant said he claimed the floor, and did
not propose to be sat down on. II don't make
any difference whether We adjourn now fol
thirty minutes or after awhile.
John Rooney tinterrupting)-Ye sir it does
make difference, and you know it, too.
E. G. Blessing advocated the recess, saying il
they did not adjourn and give the district dele
gates an opportunity to name their delegates
before the delegate ut large is elected, there
would be no one left to rstify their nomination.
L. NJ. smith SulQ the hOuT was getting late, and
the motion of Carey was intended to worry the
country delegation. He would say for them,
however, that the country delegation had come
to stay, and would remain until the work was
accomplished. Applause.
Rooney said this dilatory movement was
child-play. They had come here to send fifteen
good Democrats to Stockton, and they were go
ing TO do it. Laughter.
Jerry Payne moved that the delegates be as
sessed 80 cents each. He said it was painful but
proper.
Doty moved to amend by making all who vote
for the delegate-at-large to step forward at the
time their names are called and deposit so cents.
The amendment was adopted.
Carey withdrew his motion to take recess.
Doty said he arose to perform the pleasantest
duty of his life, and. after a eulogistic speech,
placed in nomination for delegate at-large, III.
NJ. LaRue.
Charles A. Jenkins seconded the nomination
of LaRue in lengthy address, in which he re-
viewed the politics of the State and nation.
John I. Carey placed in nomination Senator
Fred. Cox.
X. D. Stephens seconded the nomination of
Fred. Cox. He said he lStephensl had been
misrepresented by Mr.. LaRue and asked Mr.
LaRue if he would answer his questions
LaRue said he would answer questions out
side, but not in the Convention.
Stephens said if Mr. LaRue was willing to
hide behind that kind OF an answer he was sat
isfied.
The roll was then called and resulted as fol-
lows LaRue, 81; Cox, 81.
The announcement was made amidst the
widest shouts of enthusiasm LaRue was called
upon for speech and responded, thanking the
Convention for the nomination. He again de-
nounced the action of some of the Democracy
who had stabbed him in the back. He said he
felt fully yindicated, his cup of joy was full,
he would vote for no one at the Stockton Con-
vention who was not in favor of Samuel J. Til
den. Long and continued applause.1

METROPOLITAN THEATER-Evans, Bryant &
Hoey's "Meteors' company opened at the
Metropolitan Theater last evening to a good
house. II is variety company, such as present
farce, character sketches. vocal and instru-
mental music, dancing, and burlesque business,
and is a good one. The programme is varied and
full of mirth from the beginning to the close.
Most of the numbers on the programme are very
absurd, ridiculously so, and in their eXtraya-
gance and grotesqueness half the merrment of
the evening has its origin. The Werners give
musical sketch of considerable merit, the lady
being very good soprano. and Ed. Werner be-
ing very eccentric and comical low comedian
and tenor. The French twin sisters are superior
in dances. and Hoey and Bryant, in their min
strel and musical olio. introducing vari-
ETY. of instruments are especially good.
Hallen and Miss Eme Hart in med
ley of musical and burlesque character
sketches, are exceedingly original and merry.
Ella W esiler appears IN male Characters with
rapid changes of costume, and certainly assumes
the masculine with great skill. and gives her
sketches with decided finish In the after
piece, The Book Agent" Charles E. Evans is
afforded an admirable opportunity in low
comedy. He is a very amusing and eccentric
actor. whose methods are decidedly original.
The orchestra accompanying the troupe is one
of merit, and the spirit ofthe performance
very much. As a whole it is light entertain
ment, full of absurdities extravagances and
that awaken great mirthfulness in the
audience, that of last evening being evidently
well satisfied, if the applause is to be taken as
indicative of satisfaction. The same company
at matinee, and again tonight and Tomorrow
night.
