A Change OF "BOsses."

The Harrisburg convention was very
remarkable for some Of the unique par
ltamentary features of the proceedings.
They reflect equal discredlt on both
parties to the contest which so evenly
divided the delegates. The willingness
of Stewart, Bayne and their associates to
meet with Quay, Magee and their allies
in an old time LOchiel caucus" and

kind OF bOssism that the Blaine regime
would institute when it got at top. Tie

dentials, for slated and packed com
mittee Of nine, picked out by the bosses,
shows that none Of the Cameron teach
ings have been lost on Stewart. The
selection, by Temporary Chairman Wad
dell, of the chairmen of the two leading
committees from small minority of the
convention was only more indelicate
than the proposition from the other side
to depose them. The narrow partisan
view taken by Stewart and his colleagues
with their slender majority in the
credentials committee, was char
acteristic I" seven by eight per
formance, and well merited the defeat
which 1t received. The attempt to
spring changeof rules on convention,
not summoned nor prepared to consider
1t, was another futile effort of the Blaine

or the proceedings to head off a commit

Stewart at another period to abridge the
right OF free nominations, completed
their blunders so that in reviewing the

About one 0 olook Wednesday morning
a man, accompanied by young woman,
went to the Astor Place hotel, New York,

John ID. Lyon aad, with his companion,
was assigned to room 81, on the third
floor. SaOTtly afterwaTd, half dru lken
man, about twenty five years old, who
registered ~ Gas Lindon. was put in room
81 on the same toor. Nothing was seen
OF either OF the parties alter this In the
afternoon tue chambermaid found the
door Of 81 fastened on the inside aud was
uuablo to get q response 20 her knocking.
The door was broken open and the
woman was found dead ON the bed. Her
companion, Ligon, was gone, but no one
had seen him leave the hotel. Tho fact
that the door had been found bolted on
the inside and the absence Of any iudica
ton of violence, seemed to lead to the
conclusion that there had been no foul
play aud that she had died a natural death.
The BODY was afterwards identified rs that
Of Bella Schwartz, a girl of questionable
character.
About the Same time 1t was found that
the occupant Of room 81 had committed
suicide by shooting himself through the
head. He was lying on the bed, partially

A Iyoom OF Sound.


The Blaine leaders In the Harrisburg
convention had hard run of luck or
maybe it wasn't luck. Mr.. Bayne, Mr..
Stewart and Mr.. Emery Smith were full
OF motion and motions, but their mo-
tions were always voted down save one
that Mr.. Smith ventured, nominating
Mr.. Cooper as chairman Of the state
committee, which was adopted unani
mously but Mr.. Cooper is a stalwart
member of the Cameron Quay anti
Blaine machine combination, that would
seem to have been crushed out yesterday
but for the fact that 1t carried all its
motions. 1t secured the admission OF
its friend Magee, although Mr.. Stewart,
at the head of the committee on con
tested seats, reported that he was not
entitled TO his seat. 1t secured about all
the delegates at large it voted for, with
McManes at their head. They go
instructed for Blaine and Lincoln, and
they will be for Blaine aud Lincoln on
the surface, just as the convention was
It was wild for Blaine and Lincoln, and
wouldn't wait until the committee re-
ported demand for them, but fastened
to order such q report to be made and
then 1t went to work to vote down every
motion that Mr.. Blane's leader on the
floor, Mr.. Bayne, of Allegheny, made :;
and even defeated Mr.. Blaines
and Mr.. Bayne's special candidate fol
delegate at large, Mr.. Jones, OF
Pittsburg. Perhaps the convention did
not know Jones, as we don't ; bnt Baynt
knew Jones and endorsed him as reliabl,
for Blaine aud il the convention had
been really and Iesolutely for Blaine it
would have selected men as delegates
at large who are resolutely and really
for Blaine and substituted Jones, OF
Allegheny, for McManes, of Philadelphia,
who is for anybody but Blaine, as was
reported on the conventions floor. One
Of the delegates who did not understand
that the convention was not SO much foI
Blaine as 1t let on to be, wanted the
pledge to be administered to Nc
Names but McManes was enough
Blaine for the convention, which swal-
lowed him just as he was.
The information afforded by the pro
ceedings of the convention is that Blaine
will not be nominated at Chicago. He
will go there with a great hurrah and
show Of strength which will peter out, al
1t has twice done before. II is eviden
that the politicians of his party do no

was Webster's taste for rural life-for fish
ing and shooting, the pride he took in his
tine stock aud in his large crops--which
attest the healthy vigor of his nature ;and
1t is depressing reflection that he has left
no male descendants to keep up the en-
