SHERMAN IN THE RACE TO STAY.
A Square Challenge to the Pushers of
the Blaine Boom.


CHICAGO, June 24.-Telegrams have passed
to-day between Senator Sherman and his
managers to the effecrthat he is not only not
out of the fight, but has reason to believe
that he will be the nominee of the eonven-
ton. Senator Sherman has wired his friends
that he is in the race to stay; that he would
retire in favor of no one. He said that Mr..
Blaine was pledged to him mot to be csndi-
date and the use of his name is unauthorized,
and that the attempt to force Mr.. Blaine ups
on the convention was gross abuse of con-
fdence. Senator Sherman contends in his
dispatches that Mr. Blaine could
only be nominated by the conven-
ton on square issue between
Blaine and himself and not as the.
unanimous choice of the body. There is no
middle course and Blaine's friends must come
out and make their fight for him and take his
chances, or he must go down in history as q
violator of pledges. These dispatches were
shown to Mr.. Elkins and others of the lead
ers of the Blaine forces and were thrown
down to them as square challenge. These
messages created something of sensation.
The confidence of the Sherman men is partly
based on Senator Quay's promise to deliver
ifty-five votes of the Pennsylvania delega-
ton, while similar number of New York
vote are said to be secure.
Morning journal and courier., 1888-06-25

seemed apparent that Sherman could not be
nominated to declare for Blaine and give him
20 votes. Arkansas, he said, would follow
with ID, and California with 49, This initiA-
tive would sweep the convention for Blaine.
Such storm of protests was raised that Mr.
Parsons withdrew his motion. John d.
Hardy, who had been voting for Alger, but
who desires for the prestige of the State to
unite the delegation, moved to unite for
Sherman. Half the delegates objected.

A List Of Health Suggestions.

The hot pastry and iced drinks of this
country have much to do with the thin
ness of its people.
Disorderod digestion in adults is often
the outcome Of being compelled or in
duced to eat richie in childhood.
Up to middle life most people are care
less regarding their physical condition,
hence persons who ought to live long
lives have their days curtailed The
time to pay strict attention to the bodily
health is during the vigorous portion Of
lifo.. l ~
1t is quite common practise to dose
infants with teas, oils and sweetened
waters when any real or imaginary i'll is
upon them. In some cases it is necessary
to re-enforce the natural supply Of nour-
ishment, but where possible, natures
fount should be relied on chiefly.
For those who hurry to and from their
meals soup is recommended as aprcpara-
tory agent for the reception of solid food.
For man to htrriedly rush to his meals
and gulp down meat, vegetables and pie,
without q short pause of rest for the
stomach, is nearly akin to suicide.
Ioastlng bread destroys the yeast germs
and converts the starch into soluble
substance which is incapable Of fermen-
tation. Dry toast will not sour the
stomach nor produce any discomfort and
is, therefore, more agreeable to weak
digestion than any other bread.
A STOPPING position, maintained for
any length Of time, tends more to under
mine the health than is supposed. An
erect position should be observed, whether
sitting, standing or lying. To sit with
the body leaning forward on the etom-
ach or to one side, with the heels ele-
waited Oh level with the hands, is not
only in bad taste, but exceedingly deri-
mental to health; it cramps the stomach,
presses the vital organs, interrupts the
free motion of the cheat and enfeeblcs
tho functions of the abdominal and tho
racic organs, and, in fact, unbalances the
whole muscular system.

There is, however, another matter, ri
diculous as it may appear to those who
have not studied the topography of the
country and its adjacent territory, why
Holland feels secure as to its continued
independence Not far from Utrecht
there is strip of land that either bellig-
erent must cross in order to invade the
enemy's country. That strip of land is
sufficiently broad and long for the pas
sage of many corps d'armee should either
the Germans or French violate Holland's
neutrality. This entire strip can be put
under WAGER ''in less than no time" "
drowning the invading armies, with am
pie safety to the inland retreating Dutch
forces.
1t will be remembered that while Bel
GUM was used as territory for ''intern-
ing" French soldiers, making this entire
kingdom virtually q shelter for all those
thrown hors do combat, Holland was not
even scratched by the foot of single
foreign soldier during the Franco-Ger-
man war. The little country was on the
alert ever and anon. She had her army
of $1,000 men on q war footing, but with
ono hand OH the sword, the other on the
sluices, she stood ready to fight with
water any one daring to violate the
merest inch of her territory. The expe-
rience then gained has been improved
upon since, and during the past eighteen
years the bikes and dllinen have been 30
improved for the purposes of defense
against sea and foe that the Hollanders
of our day can as effectually make use of
the water as an arm of defense as did
their forefathers over 200 years ago
against the then powerful Spain.-The

Amsrloan women IN London.

The presence OF american women in
Z London society has had an influence on
conversation as it has ON other things.
Youth and beauty and cleverness are
often to be found in the same person; it
would be wonderful il they were not to
be found in the same group. The Amer
lean girl who rarries in England has be-
gun life earlier than her English cousin.
She has met men and even talked to
them while yet unmarried, o thing which
few English girls venture to do. She
has probably lived In Paris; part Of her
education is French; she knows three Of
the great capitals of the world; her ideas
are not bounded by the horizon Of May
fair. She is fresh, original, independ-
ent. She cannot always be clever, but
she has been taught to think for herself,
and never was there more apt pupil in
that science. Above all, perhaps, she
was not born into a respect for rank, or
even for royalty, and she catches there
fore at once that note Of equality which
is essential to social success-in London
as much as anywhere in the world-as
well as to intellectual freedom.
1t was always said that the secret or
one secret of American popularity in
royal circles was in this American free
dom from the purely conventional no
ton about royalty which prevails in
England. A girl from New York talked
to the Prince Of Wales as if royalty had
no more rights than republicanism. She
spoke her mind, as she expected the
prince to speak his. don't know that
he always did, bat he was delighted by
the girls frankness. 1t is many years
since he began to covet American society,
and there has never been a time when
there was not some one or more Amer
lean women who, in the current phrase
of London, had to be asked if YOU
wanted the prince.-G. w. Smalley in
New York Tribune.
