State Convention.

Up to the hour Of going to press moth
ing definite had been learned from the
Democratic State Convention in session
at Columbus. The fight for places up
on the State ticket Is not looked upon
as the all important feature of the Con-
vention. The Columbus Despatch OF
the oath said: "The real fight is over
delegates at large.
The friends. of Governor Hoadly are
industriously working to further his
claims for the Presidential nomination,
and it is said that all combinations thus
far are favorable to him. 1t is under;
stood that the Payne influence OF
Cleveland is quietly at work for Hoad-
ly, as well as the Mclean crowd of Gin
cinnati. Rumor has it that Mr.. Mclean
has buried his hatchet, having compro-
missed his political difference with the
Governor, and that the two are now
working hand in hand. This possibly
accounts for a cessation of personal at
tacks which recently appeared in the
Columbus correspondence of the Gin
cinnati Enquirer. An under current is
also at work for Thurman. This is en-.
tirely in the hands of his friends,as he is
taking no steps to further his candida
cy for the Presidency, nor is he taking
any,part in shaping affairs of the conven.
tion. The delegates will probably be in.
structed to vote as unit, but be left
free to choose their own candidate, moi
being bound to any one by action of the
convention.

Songs Never Sung

There are who touch the magic string,
And noisy fame is proud to win them;
Alasl for those who never sing,
But die with all their music In them."
"Yes, that's beautiful, pathetic and true" said
your representative. "Ihe poet allndes TO people
who are somehow suppressed, and never get their
full allowance Of Joy and air. Which reminds me
Of letter shown me the other day by Hiscox q Co.,
OF New York, signed by Mr.. E. O. Williams, Of
Chapman, Snyder Co, Pa, 9 prominent business

M. Sauvageon of Valence has studied
the different phenomena which arepro-
duced in cup of coffee when the sugar
is put into it, and the results of his OBJ
servations transform it into a barome-
ter. IF in sweetening your coffee" I"
says M. Sauvageon, "you allow the SUI
gar to dissolve without stirring the liq-
uid, the globules of air contained in the
sugar will rise to the surface of the liq-
uid. If these globules form frothy
mass, remaining in the centre of the
cup, it is an indication of duration of
fine weather; if, on the contrary, the
froth forms a ring around the sides of
the cup, it is sign of heavy rain. Vari-
able weather isimplied by the froth re-
naming stationary but not exactly in

"Were you aware how delicate the
touch of blind person is? When ma
ture deprives us of one sense, he makes
amends by bringing the other senses to
extraordinary acuteness. I'll take a
scoop of sugar and let him feel it, and
you see how quickly he'll tell you what
it is" The blind man having entered,
was put to the test. He put his thumb
and finger into the scoop, and without
hesitation said, "That is sand" Ev-
erybody laughed but the grocer. He
made three several attemps at blushing,
and then he went into the back shop
and kicked the dog.

WALL STREET ASTONISHED.
BY the Assignment of One of Oldest
Firms in the Street.

BY the Assignment of One of Oldest
Firms in the Street.
New YORK, June 24.--Matthew Nor
gan's sons, bankers, have failed. The
Post says: Great surprise was created
in Wall street this morning by the an
nOuncement that the banking house of
M. Morgan's sons, SO Wall street, had
suspended. The house is one of the
oldest banking firms in the city, found
by the late Matthew Morgan fifty years
ago, and formerly known as Matthew
Morgan & Sons. Through a brother of
Matthew Morgan, it began with an ex-
tensive New Orleans connection, which
it always retained. The firm did a
general banking business and was inter-
ested in other enterprises, including, it
is said, the cotton trade. Their stand
ing in business circles was always very
high.
At the office of the firm no statement
can be obtained in regard to the sus-
pension or the amount of assets and
liabilities. The failure had little effect
upon the stock market, which, inde-
pendently of this, has been very fever
ish and excited throughout the morn
| ing. Messrs. Edward and Henry Nor
gan, the members of the firm, are inde-
pendently large owners of real estate in
this city. 1t is believed that their in
ability to realize quickly upon real
estate in order to make good their losses
upon stocks has been the immediate
cause of the suspension.
The friends of M. Morgan's Sons say
the suspension is good deal like Gar
rison's assignment, that is, their assets
exceed their liabilities. The firm was
large subscriber to the Mexican Ma
tional Construction company, and, it is
understood held quite a number of
| Mexican National bonds, Denver and
Rio Grande issues, Kansas and Pacific
consols and various New England
securities.
