is most thrilling and has everyw here Great
ed the most intense excitement. On il
over three thousand shots are fired, and
the whole thing is done with such a grand
rush and looks so real that il carries away
all beholders. This scene cannot be pro-
perly described, and must be seen to be APP

gentleman and have sgreed to race our

ing anything at all but the exhibits and |

,ation to the secretary.

A MISTAKE.

a MlSlAhE.
On the SSSth ballot Howard cast two
votes for Major and six for Cosgrove. This
vote left Major four and Reese thirteen.
At the conclusion OF this ballot the chair
read the result and said:
This being the tenth ballot and Mr..
Major having the least number of votes his
name will hereafter be dropped"
Three of the Howard couny delegates at
once came to their feet. One of the gen.
tlemen said they were mistaken in the
number of the ballots that had been taken
and while desiring to compliment Mr..
Reese with few votes they had no idea of
forcing Mr.. Major from the race.
The chair regretted the unintentional
act of the Howard county delegation, but
there was, in his opinion, no remedy,
hence his name would be dropped.
MR. REESE WITHDRAWN.
Mr.. Bush, of Saline, who was support.
er of Dee Reese, addressed the chair and
said it was Mr.. Reese's turn to be dropped,
and inasmuch as nothing could get Mr..
Major back, he would withdraw Mr.. Reese's
name from before the convention.
A DELEGATED don't know. under the
Bush substitute, as the gentleman can with
draw the name Of candidate from before
the convention.
Chair-There is nothing in the rules or
in the substitute that can prohibit the gen.
tleman from Withdrawing the name of the
candidate at any time he may so elect.
Proceed with the roll call.
Mr.. Montgomery-The3 S9th ballot.
The audience was as still as death. Eyes
looked CLASSY and perspirstion oozed from
every pore.
Mr.. Johnston, of Cooper, unbuttoned his
vest.
Capt. A. A. Walker chewed the end of
a cigar until his lips touched the FIRE.
DR.. King reached forward on his chair
as the roll call was proceeded with until
he almost sat on the floor.
George Lopgan looked solemn.
When Boone county cast her vote, "13
for Heard" il was signal for a hilarious
E me Some of the Pettis county delegates
mounted chairs, and those who did not
elevate themselves shouted until they
were hoarse.
When Howard county cast her vote
solid for Cosgrove there was a general
sbo It from the Cooper county people pres
err, and j. B. Wolfe set his ears forward
and shouted give for Cosgreye" as Mr.
Montgomery called Moniteau county.
Morgan's vote which had been for More
all the time was given to Heard.
Again the friends Of Mr.. Heard had a
season of uproarous hilarity.
Peitis gave her twelve votes to Heard
and after that there was a calm.
John l. Morrison, of Howard looked to-
ward the Saline delegation with longing
eyes and with one of his blardest smiles,
hoping that Saline would 60 solid for Co.'S
grove.
He was disappointed and the vote was
cast 81 for Cosgrove and 81 for Heard.
The scene which followed beggared de-
scription. Words cannot express it. Dele
gates shook hands with each other, Tom Price
Rugged DR.. King until he got red behind
his ears and all shouted until their eyes
were distorted and their nasal organs ex-
banded beyond belief.

substitute for the resolution offered by Mr..

Carter:
DROP 'EM.
Resolved, That this convention now to
proceed to ballot for nomination, and il
after ten ballots no choice is made, the can
didate having the lowest number of votes
on the tenth ballot, shall be dropped, and
thus after each succeeding ten ballots if no
choice is made, the candidate having the
lowest number OF votes each succeeding
tenth ballot, shall be dropped until a sue
cessful result shall be reached"
Col Thos. Shsckelford, of Howard coun-
~, who had been voting for Major, spoke
against referring the matter back to the
people, and made a strong argument in IA
vor of the substitute.
j. II. Johnston, of Cooper, took the floor,
and after telling laughable anecdote to
illustrate the position of the convention at
the time, he asked that the original prop
osition be voted on, and if that was af-
frmed, there would be no occasion for the
substitute. If the original motion was de-
feated then introduce the substitute as an
original and take a vote.
BUSH TO THE FRONT AGAIN.
Mr.. Bush, of Saline, took the floor and
spoke at length against reference to the
people and In support Of the substitute
offered. His address was regular bung-
starter and was full of logical arguments.
A. F. Rector, OF Saline, took the floor
and delivered vigorous speech against
the matter to the people and in
favor of dropping the lowest candidate.
Calls of question" came from all parts |
Of the house, and then the vote was taken |
which resulted as follows:

A Curious Affair.

The scene is laid near Glasgow. The
time-the present. A woman who had
been housekeeper for an elderly man for
period of years, left him some time
back and took up rather questionable
occupation. 1t appears that this woman
had in tow a man acquainted with her
movements. She has several children
and the old man was OF the opinion that
the children did not receive right treat
ment, and SO told his supposed friend.
For the kindness the old man manifested
toward the children he was made the tar
get of unlimited abuse and threats at the
hands of this woman and her parmour,
and it was in this wise: The old mans
warm friend wrote his dulcena that the
he (the old MANI had been talking. in
harsh terms about her, and advised her
to be at certain place lat which the old
man daily stops and there she would
find him there, and together they would
teach the old man lesson. The pr
gram was carried out, and the old fellow
said they "bully-ragged" him terribly,
the friend threatening his life. This old
man, who is perfectly upright, will
handle these parties severely if they ever
again molest him.

A Deserved Prize.

Our athletic young friend of Philadel-
phia, Mr.. Edward KohIer, has distin-
guished himself in 'cycleing circles by
winning the Pope Challenge Cup, valued
at one thousand dollars. The prize was
captured with little effort on "Ned's"
part last Saturday, at Gentlemen's Driv-
ing Park, Philadelphia, in twenty mile
bicycle race. The distance was covered
in the comparatively slow time of one
hour and twenty three minutes, as the
wind interfered greatly with a realization
of their hope, i. o., to accomplish the dis
lance inside of an hour. Mr.. Kohler will
however be under the painful necessity
of winning the cup again in another
twenty mile race before it becomes his
own private property. The winner of
this prize is well known in this vicinity,
and his host of friends would gladly con-
gratulatS him upon his success, should
he favor us soon with his presence.
