There has just appeared in Vienna

London the family made the acquain-

Patti became so attached that she
called him her dear papa. She
was at his home nearly every day and
there one evening at dinner met
two young Milanese of very engaging
manners. Miss or madame, the author
! OF the book, was prevented from be-

strongly In the direction ola new man.
While the Edmunds men now pin
their faith strongly to their candidate,
II il openly declared that Gresham
movement properly supported 10y
Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin and
Minnesota would probably carry with
1t the total acquired Edmunds
strength 1t is not thought, however,
that Gresham will be named by Indi-
IA that delegation it Is now believed
will pre sent the name Mr.. Harrison out

Gresham at any opportune time and
IL Is believed IL the postmaster-general
Is named, it will be by Wisconsin or
one of the pronounced Edmunds
states.
The Arthur and Blaine managers
appear to recognize the condition OF
affairs which would be developed by
the adherents of Edmunds, Sherman
and Logan standing firm, tut those of
each confidently claim they will show
sufficient strength apart from that
given Mr.. Edmunds to carry the day.
From this IL is assured that the
strength of one or the other
of these leaders has been overrated
or that one can draw away
the strength of the other
after the early balloting. The respec-
tive strength of the Blaine and Arthur
following has certainly bailled the
Judgment of the closest observers as
the tactics of the Arthur men has been
to pursue very quiet canvass, and
they certainly have made no exhibit
of figures, all the while, however, dis
playing greatest confidence. To each
Is universally accorded the two leading
positions in the race, and the problem
then resolves itself in the case OF
Arthur. The one who is sufficiently
near the goal to secure enough votes
from the three states named
to insure victory. AS the friends o.
other candidates contend in such an
alternative, new name will in al
likelihood be sprung on the conven

viction that one or the other of the two
leading candidates will have to begir
the fight In the convention at the out
set with nearly, orquite sufficient vote
to carry with them the nomination.

that the strength of the state in case o

should not take place till
several years had passed. This condi-
ton was not at all agreeable to the
Young couple. especially not to the
bridegroom. He would have preferred
to marry Adelina on the spot, Tor he
was Jealous, and tortured bim ..lf with
the thought that chance might take
the bride, whom all the world admired,
away from him. He therefore wanted
Adelina to renounce the stage and
live only for him. Like shrewd ca
culator Papa Patti entered most
negative protest. He talked plainly
and without circumlOcution, and de-
monstrated to his son in.law to be,
first, that he had not the money nee
essary to support a wife decently, and
secondly, that Adelina had not vet
earned the capital which would enable
her, as wife, to be Indifferent to the
question whether or not the business
of her husband was profitable. The
betrothed lovers, therefore, had to
yield to the unbending decision of the
father, and put up for the time being
with the privilege of meeting each
other twice week in the house CT
papa, and there cooling to their hearts
delight.
Adelina continued her career of
triumph, but while the public per-
formed almost impossible things in its
enthusiasm, Adelina's betrothed sat
in his chair as If on Goals, his eyes
flashed flame and daggers in all direc-
tons, and whenever he saw the face
of q notorious Patti admirer in a box
flushed with enthusiasm, he would
have gladly murdered its owner off,
hand If the bon ton had given him
half permission. But it was not the
public alone whose enthusiasm en-
ragged the young Othello; the lava of
his jealousy poured also over the artists
who supported her. When old Rom
conf, who, as q compliment, had as
sumed the role of Masseto in "Don
Giovanni and who wanted to hear
nothing oflove either on the stage or
in real life, placed his arm around
Zerlina's waist, the young bridegroom
was driven almost into a frenzy. But
when the great Marlo--who il il true.
resembled an Adonis-as Romeo
kissed his Juliet, II seemed as II the
jealous one hunted In his pocket for a
bomb with which to destroy his sun
posed rival. More and more consumed
by jealousy, the young man declared to
Adelina's father that lie would wait
no longer. aud must incontinently
marry his love. His insane behavior
led Papa Patti to fear that, IL married
TO such man, Adelina's lot would not
be one OF roses. The two men quarreled
and the result was that Sig. NJ. seized
his hat In rage and rushed from the
house, never to return. Adelina was
beside herself AMI wept bitterly when

sentiug the New York Post, said III
seems To me that Blaine and Arthur
are about evenly matched at 500 to S2v
votes. and that Edmunds will have
about 100, Logan 80, Sherman ~,

candidates is somewhat uncertain"
Senator Malone of Virginia has pre-
pared lists of estimates as to the STAND.
ing of the convention. AT the outset
he saws that he Is sure that Ar
thur will have S25 votes on the first
ballot, that Blaine will have SS2 on
the same ballot, aud he predicts Ar
thurs nomination on the second bal
lot.
Thos. Wheeler of Syracuse, who
claims to know whereof he speaks,
saws the convention is in favor OF any
one to beat Arthur, and to that extent
Is for Blaine. ;.
Ben Harrison of Indiana says he Is
not a candidate in any sense, and VIII
try to prevent the presentation OF his
name before the convention. What
he will do In case his friends insist on
nominating him he declines TO say.

INDIANA DELEGATION.

The Indiana delegation met this
morning and completed their organi-
zation and adjourned until o'clock
this evening. TIE Blaine men are
anxious that Harrison shall not go into
the fight, and influence is felt in the
meeting where considerable opposition
to placing Harrison in nomination was
manifested. 1t is said that Il. Thompson
doubted the advisability of presenting
his name to the convention. What
the outcome will be it is impossible to
state, but the contest is considered close.
Hon. p. Clayton announced this
morning that he was going to work for

THE PROCEEDINGS.

CHICAGO, June Ill q. m.-The
situation this morning in the presiden-
tial canvass is very much simplified.
All the delegations are now on the
ground, including New York anc
Pennsylvania, whose coming had been
looked forward to with some interest.
The negotiations which were carried
forward in the interest of the
respective candidates yesterday make
it clear that the adherents of the six
candidates, namely, Arthur, Blaine,
Edmunds, sherman, Logan and Haw-
| ley, have made fair measure of their
strength and deem that the present
aspect of the fight war
rants them In standing
by their men. The most ardent of the
Arthur and Blaine do not now claim
for them majority Of the convention
The highest figure mentioned for
Blaine Is 33S, aud the highest for
Arthur Is about 325; but conservative
advocates each put the figures for both
under 300. This is necessary in view
of the stand taken by the Edmunds,
Logan and Sherman. men. Tue

100 were delegates. The latter were
not willing TO pledge themselves to the
cause OF Mr.. Edmunds at the outset

the number were obtained for the
Nermonter aud It was estimated
that his strength In the
early bai.oting would exceed
100. Senator George Il. Hoar
Of Massachusetts, presided and speeches
In the interest Of Mr.. Edmunds were
made by A. ID. White and Geo. VIII

Of about twenty minutes duration. In

Among the many symptoms
OF Dyspepsia or indigestion
the most prominent are: Va
riable appetite; faint, gnawing
feeling at pit of the stomach,
with unsatisfied craving for
food; heartburn, feeling Of
