TOPEKA, Kan, July 25-The state
republican convention assembled in
this city to-day at noon. It. is the
largest state convention ever held in
the state, there being 41S delegates
present and the attendance of promi-
nent men and spectators is much
greater than any assembled together
before in the capitol. Houdew Finch
of Burlingame was selected Temper
airy chairman without opposition in
convention. A caucus of all the
candidates for governor except Smith
was held last night having agreed
upon his selection. Mr.. Finch made
a brief but excellent address upon
taking the chair.
Lewis Hanback, of Osborne county,
was selected as secretary and w. A.
Smith of SedgWick, assistant secretary
Motions to appoint committees upon
credentials. order of business, platform
and resolutions and permanent organ
ization were adopted, after which the
convention adjourned until 2:30
O'Clock, in order to give the chairman
time to name the committees. The
situation is very interesting one and
the result is altogether in doubt.
States are plenty and the knowing

ticket aIe numerous, but it is fact
nevertheless, that who the nominees
will be is a thing which can only be told
after they have been nominated.

Gen. A. s. Williams division of the
Twelfth corps was hurrying over from Culp's

and take those colorsn A participant says
that the little line arose as one man and
moved down the slope as though marching
in review. Cannon opened on them, rifles
blazed at them. One after another five color
bearers fell, but the standard did not go
down nor did the line WAIVER, only as shells
tore it apart. ALI that survived went on
until they were within rife length of the
enemy. The charge was success, for by it's
6oidness it dismayed the enemy. Over 200
were killed or wounded, among them every
field officer, 10 out of 81 line officers, and not
a man surrendered. The colors were brought

Ttmber CuttsruI Harrou Rgeaps

OTTAWA, July 23.AOne hundred
timber cutters, working on Perley &
Pattee's timber limits on Bouchere
river recently, had marvellous escape
from terrible death. Last week bush
fires started simultaneously at-fOur
points of the compass, a short distance
from the camp. The flames swept
down upon the men, who were not
aware of theiTDperilous situation until
the fire was almost upon them and all
means of escape cut off. They were
forced to retreat from the lumber depot
only to see the camp doomed by the fire.
Men vino probably never prayed before
fell upon their knees and asked to be
saved from the dreadful fate that
seemed inevitable. Their prayers were
answered. AS the last ray of hope of
deliyernnce vanished black cloud was
seen rapidly gathering in the west and
in short time a heavy storm passed
over the burning district in which the
men were imprisoned, deadening the
fire sufficiently to enable them to eS-
cape. A number of the men were suf-
fering from the intense heat they had
endured

and OF the men seven were killed and sixteen
wounded, while but two surrendered.
Among the infantry re-enforcements that
came to 6ickles' aid in the heat of the struR-
gle were the brigades of Brooke, Gross,
Zook and Kelly, Of CaldWeil's division Han
cocks Second corps. As Kelly's men (the
Irish brigade came mp to the line of fire the
commander ordered halt, and each soldier
knelt while a priest pronounced absolution
on all who might fall Mingled with his
solemn "AmenF sounded the word ''For-
wardI' and the remnant of the five battaIions
Of Corcoran and Meagher, now reduced to
six companies all told, moved on under their
banners of the green and the blue. Zook
went forward not less gloriously. A staff
officer was riding across the field to find
Caldwell and ask for aid at a threatened
point, and he CHANGED to meet Zook before
Caldwell appeared. To save time he asked
Zook to go with him. my orders are to
follow the column, said Zook. But a glance
TO the lines told him that this was no time for
ceremony, and he added: 'sIf you will give
me the order of Gen. Sickles Will obey it,
''Then his order is that you file your
brigade to the right and move into action
here.n
Zook wheeled his men out of column and
started across the Wheat Field, but exhausted
and disorganized masses of men, driven back
from the front, INSTRUCTED his march. Zook
now cried out
sMen. IL you cannot get out of the way, lie
down and let me march over you"
So the column went on and Zook fell at
the head of it, living just long enough to
hear the shouts of victory when the field was
won. looks successor, Col r. p. Roberts, of
the One Hundred and Fortieth PennsyI-
vania, was also killed here, and three other
regimental commanders were wounded

men, over half its strength, and the spirit
that moved the men was exhibited by a
STRIPPING in the ranks who was warned to
shelter himself from the sharpshooters'
terrible aim. Drawing himself to his full
height he swung his arms out defiantly, and
answered: 81 am on the soil of Pennsylvania
now, and If they get me down they'll have to
shoot mo downn
When Sickles' angle had been broken there
was a new rush from the Confederate line,
extending up the Emmitsburg road to Han
cocks front. AS this latter officer came riding
down the field he saw group of Southern
battle flags advancing toward Thomas regu-
lar battery, and there was no infantry at
hand excepting eight companies Of the First

making the last desperate stand on Seminary
Ridge as described above. Oak Ridge was
now covered with Confederate cannon and
Oak Hin was occupied by heavy battery.
