BLAINE BLASTS.
His Friends Have Received
Tacit Consent to Present
Him at Convention
And a Premeditated Foray is
Prepared Against all Oppo-
nents at Chicago.
BLAINE IN THE FIELD.

Information to the Effect That He VIII
Accept the Nomination n rendered.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May 4.-The
Times will publish tomorrow the fol-
lowing tridple loaded special fromNew
York, which ii will endorse as coming
direct from the most authentic source:
Reliable information has been re-
ceived that friends of Blaine have
within the last few days received direct
from him his assent to an aggressive
movement for his denomination for
president and the assurance that II
nominated In the face of his Florence
letter of declination he would not feel
at liberty to decline. A general and
systematic effort has been made by
Blaine's closest friends, such as Chair
man Jones, William Walter Phelps,
Whitelaw Reid. Charles Emery Smith
and others, for two months past to get
Blaine into an attitude of passive can
didacy. The Washington conference
was only part Of the varied meth ods
by which influences had been brought
to bear upon Blaine, and the pub.ica-
ton of his portrait freshly taken from
life in Italy and issued by Judge"
this week was decided on more than a
month ago as the starting point for an
svowed effort to make Blaine a candi-
date. Every possible pressure has
been nut upon Blaine to get from him
direct assurance that be will not de-
cline II nominated, and that assur-
ance has been received in this city
from Blaine within the last three
days. In very few days more IL
will cease to be .ccret that Blaine il
in the hands of his friends, a. the
Blaine leaders willat once come to the
front and make an aggressive cam.
psign for his denomination. This
movement has been pretty clearly fore
shsdowed for some weeks in such
Blaine organs as the Tribune in this
city and the Philadelphia Press. All
affection about Blaine's candidacy
will now soon be thrown off and the
battle made aggressive. Part of the
original scheme was the election OF
Charles Emory Smith as delegate at
large from your state and the failure
was great disappointment, but
Smith gives the assurance that Blaine
can command majority of the Penn
sylvania delegation under any circum-
stances and that If Blaine's nomina-
tlou shall seem TO be assured the dele
CATION will be solid for him. The un-
expected express ons in Massachusetts,
and Vermont for Blaine were not acci.
dental nor are they unexpected to
Blaine's friends. When all Of the
anti Blaine men were posing on their
arms because they regarded Blaine as

were mist energetic iu their work In

QUEER THINGS ABOUT NOSES.
The Nose Of Civilization All Right with
Some Interesting Exceptions

The Nose Of Civilization An Right with
Some Interesting Exceptions.
The following paragraph has been going
the rounds Of the press:
M. lie Bee, the French savant, says
that the nose is gradually losing its
power 10 discharge its traditional func-
ton in the case of the civilized peoples;
when the sense Of smell vanishes alto
gether, as will infallibly be the case one
day, the organ itself will follow its ex-
ample sooner or later, as nature never
conserves useless organs, and the nose
must CO. The olfactory sense is keener
in the savage than in the civilized man. "
A New York specialist on the nose, to
whom this was shown, said:
"Well, Frenchmen seem to delight In
making such extravagant statements
There are men and women OF today who
have the most powerful sense OF smell
The trouble is that it Is not always edu-
Gated like that Of the savage. Savages

who does not educate those senses. As
far as the olfactory sense dying out is
concerned. that is not true | think the
reason this French savant thought so is
because so many people nowadays have
colds and catarrh, due TO the civ.
ilization that we are struggling
under. Imperfectly heated rooms,
improper ventilation, a thousand

sanitary, produce colds and catarrh; and

An English HSdrocarbon Engine.

A pleasing launch-known as Of the
Zephyr type"-is now built in England,
the motive power OF which is obtained
from a highly volatile hydrocarbon, one
Of the early products in the distillation of
petroleum. selling in this country for
about ten cents a gallon. Within five
minutes after lightning up the launch Is
ready to start at full speed. and, the
action being automatic, the boat can run
at a speed of from seven to eight miles an
hour for several hours without any at
tention whatever being required, except
ing only occasionally ubricating the bear
ings. The entire central portion Of the
boat Is available for passenger accommo-
dation. giving double accommodation as
compared with steam. There is a very
large saving in weight of machinery
owing 10 the very small size OF the vapor
generator, and this reduction In weight
renders lighter scantling OF bull admissi-
ble, SO that the launch weighs only
ton, machinery included. The full sup
ply requires no attention whatever, be-
ing perfectly self acting, all hand firing
being abolished. and owing TO absence
of coal the whole arrangement Is ex-
tremely cleanly. Full speed is main
tanned with consumption OF one and a
quarter gallons of the hydrocarbon per
hour.-New Orleans Times-Democrat

The BRAZILIAN Empire. Progress.

The illness Of the Brazilian emperor re-
calls what be has done, and encouraged
to be done, for his empire. Twenty years
ago Brazil had nine Insignificant cotton
manufactures, all together having 5s5
spindles. There are now in that country
forty-six such manufactures, five OF
which alone have 10000 spindles. They
make yeahy 100000 Of yards Of cot
ton goods. This IS but one item, which
is paralleled in every direction. The
country has also progressed in agricul-
tural production quite as remarkably as
in manufactures. The Argentine Repub-
lie in South America alone has kept pace
with Brazil Thirty years ago Dom
Pedro was in q struggle with all sorts of
conservatism and bigouy which resisted
progress He persisted in importing ma
chinery and tools and ideas, and has
lived long enough to know that he has
triumphed. The crowning result is the
recent abolition Of slavery. Globe Demo

The Fifth In Texas.

From the Kansas city Times of June
2s We learn that 1.-THE four companies
of the Fifth Infantry, under command
Of Lieutenant Colonel Cochran, same
regiment, which were shipwrecked at
Omaha, are nov reaching their desti-
nation at posts in the Department of
Texas. The command left Omaha for
Kansas City over the Union Pacific
via Lincoln, last Saturday night. and
Its officers and men have fsred better
under the circumstances than was ex-
pected when they first met with the
disaster Of the General Terry. The
Union Pacific Railway Company,
being responsible for the loss OF the
Terry, at once took measures to re-
compense the officers and men for
their personal loss. Divers were em-
ployed,t to bring everything to the sur
face, and when this was done the
company appointed an appraiser, who
took stock OF everything aboard. The
officers ard men claim to have re-
ceived full value for all losses, and are
well pleased with the compsny's treat
ment of them. Captain Rice, who was,
perhaps, the heaviest loser OF the
wreck, was paid 50, 500, and all others
In proportion. The board bil's Of the
officers aud their families was paid by
the company at the hotels in Omaha /,
which made the entire expenditure of
the company about $4,000, The diff
fsrent amounts were oil paid In cash,
the company receiving receipts In
full to save them from any future
suits. In thus settling the losses Of
the command, brought about by the
negligence of the company, II has
shown proper spirit which unques-
tlonably will be appreciated by the
service. In the loss Of the Don Came
ron in 1877 the losses We're only set
tied by the government three months
ago. Lieutenant Colonel Cochran had
all his furniture aboard the Helena
and consequently met with no loss.
