Mr.. Thompson will be the choice, al
though the friends Of the other gentlemen
are working hard in their interests. The
contest in the Second District is still be
tween Hon. Marion Biggs, ex-senator
Camiuetti snd O. @. Wright, but it is
regarded in most quarters as rather GER
tain that the nomination will fall upon
!. Hon. Marion Biggs. There seems to be
Mo opposition to Henry McPike. OF Ala
media, in the Third District. Mr.. Nc
Pike is young and popular lawyer resid-
ing at Alameda. The Fourth District
delegation was still solid for Judge
Robert Ferral, with no opposition SO far
as heard OF. The Fifth District delegation
had announced itself almost unanimously
in favor Of General Clunie, and there APP
peared to be no change Yesterday. This
district seems to be still unsettled, al
though it was considered yesterday that
Mr.. Reel B. Ferry of Fresno was the
choice of the majority OF the delegates
The name Of Hon. J. de Barth Shorb had
been mentioned on the previous day, but
Major Burke, think that Mr.. Shorb did
not desire to run, telegraphed to him to
San Francisco and yesterday morning
received the following reply:
Mr.. W. r. Burke
Can't imagine why my name has been used
as Congressional candidate Would not under
any circumstances accept the nomination.
Will not be present. ] DE BARTH SHORE.
Other candidates mentioned yesterday
were Hon. J. Marion Brooks and Mayor
Hunsacher, of San Diego. The candi-
dates for district delegates were the same
as mentioned yesterday and it was re-
garded as settled that the selections
would be made as then indicated.

Tho Candidates.

There was no apparent change in the
situation yesterday and it was considered
that almost everything had been settled
except the nomination for Chief Justice
for which there seemed to be rather
brisk contest between judges Sullivan,
Searles and Armstrong. The San Fran.
cisco delegation was said to be against
Judge Sullivan and in favor of Judge
Seailes and the county about evenly di.
vided between Judges Searles and Arm
strong.
1t was regarded as settled that the del
egates at-large will be selected from those
named in yesterda, mornings HERALD.
The names mentioned were Hon. S. NJ.

ply, OF Del Norte. Hon. w. d. English,
of Alameda, and M. f. Tarpey. of Ala

mentioned inconnection with this order
Of business, but acareful inquiry revealed
the fact that they had no extensive back
ing, and that when the time comes foY
action they will not be heard of.
The nominations for Congress also ap-
pear to be settled, although this cannot
be definitely settled until the District
Delegations have held their caucuses, the
time and place Of which will be. found il

for District Delegates and for Congress.
In order to expedite matters, an amicable

cheering.) AT the time of our advent
into power it was said that the nation
was in danger, but after an administers
ton of four years we find to-day the
country enjoying prosperity that it has
never known before. Millions of acres
of the public land has been wrested from
those who illegally held it, and turned
over to the commonwealth, to whom it
| rightly belonged. Abuses that had ex-
listed for years have been done away
with, and needed reforms carried out in
a mastery manner. As regards Cali
fornia, aid has been extended as regards
the Chinese questionable immigration
of the Mongols has been greatly re-.
stricted, and ere long we shall
hear that the Chinese influx has
been stopped entirely. Gentlemen,
under President Cleveland the country
has attained wonderful prosperity, and
the respect and honor of nations, en-
pires and kingdoms is extended to his
glorious rule. AT the present time the
country was never more secure and we
can safely say that after the next Nation
al election it will be found that the Re.
publican party has spent its last shot.
In conclusion thank you again for the
honor conferred on me personally and
for the honor conferred on Los Angeles
by selecting one of its representatives to
preside over this assemblage. I hope
that the treatment extended toyou while
you are our visitors will meet with your
appreciation 30 that when you return te
your homes it will be with kindly re-
membranes Of the people OF this South
ern country. Cheers. We will now
proceed to business and nominations fol

At the Pavilion.

Everything was in readiness for the
Convention long before the hour was
reached, and at this time it presented
more handsome appearance than it ever
has before. The gentlemen who carried
out the Instructions of the committee
paused in the building after their work
had been completed and surveyed the
scene with feeling that the delegates
nshst indeed be hard to satisfy il
they did not appreciate the work
that had been done and the manner
in which it had been carried out. At
this time the decorations, even to the
smallest detail, had been completed, and
the most critical eye could have found
,othing wanting which might have added
to the appearance of the huge hall.
Starting from central point in 4 9 CELL
ing broad banners Of real bunting in the
National colors swung gracefully to nu-
merous points at the sides and ends Of
the hall. In front, high in the air above
the stage, was huge flag, folds OF which
overlapped the following motto, painted
in bright and harmonious colors:
s'Los Angeles greets the Democracy Of
the State-Wclcom Grover Cleveland
and victory-no war taxation in time of
peace. Revenue for surplus is robbery
to the people.

FIG. 2-pIREcYoIRE BONNET.

Fig. illustrates a very becoming bon
net in the directoire style. The shape IS in
felt, with velvet facing. Loops of ribbon,
intermixed with feathers, form a large bow
at the side, with border Of soft feather trim
ming extending almost across the entire
front of the brim and ribbon strings to
match the bow.
According to Harper's Bazaar the small
Dlackbrds are thought suitable trimming for
any hat, and are only rivaled by the more
tiny humming birds that are in groups posed
amid the ribbons as if in the heart Of a
flower. Black cord passementerie is also
used on bonnets, covering the sides over a
color-especially ever red or green velvet
and forming loops on top. Felt and velvet
bonnets will be chosen to correspond in
color with the long cloak which is to be
the favorite wrap for the winter, and which
must be long enough to conceal, the dress be-
meath it-an economical fashion, as one bon
net will then serve with various gowns.
