A Seventh ward delegate said the
delegation from that ward wanted the
name of Loomis in place of that of
Noerenberg. Col. Glenn came to the
rescue and offered to have his name
taken Off, instead of Noerenberg, but j.
w. Lawrence interposed and said this
would be a bad precedent, and he hoped
it would not carry. The convention
then refused to make any changes and
adopted the delegation as it stood,
whereupOn the diSgruntled Seventh
ward boy left the room in high dudgeon.
Up to this time the convention had
been as peaceful as a summer sea, with
not breath of diScOrd or even diSa-
greement to ruffie its placid surface.
But the fun was reserved for the clos
ing act. The convention was ready to
adjourn, when Perry Long, of the First
ward, got the floor and moved to Oinstruct
the delegation to vote on all matters as
a unit. There was lull, and then the
storm broke. Seagrave Smith very
mildly said that he hoped this would
not prevail. Every delegate was ell
titled to his voice and should be given
an opportunity. The discussion which
followed was long and interesting, but
entirely without acrimony.
q. M. Foote-I think the proper mo-
tive is displayed in this motion and hope
it will prevail. If it had not been for
the unit rule in Chicago, New York
would not have gone for Cleveland and
he would not have been nominated.
You all know how helpless Hennepin
county has been in the state conven-
tlonS with divided delegation.
Peter Anderson-If we are to be sent
down that way, why don't the chairman
simply send a telegram?
f. L.. MorSe-This delegation has in
telligence enough to do its own voting
and should be left free and unin-
structed. In reply to my friend FOote,
l would say that the unit rule cost
Cleveland the Tammany vote, and but
for the Mugwumps he would have been
defeated.
A. d. Smith, favor the unit rule. If
we had had it in the past, Hennepin
county would have had more weight in
the state councils of the party.
Perry Long-ThiS motion is in no in
tereSt but that of peace, strength and
harmony.
John T. Byrnes-There is nothing
wrong and no scheme in the unit rule
L hope it will go through. .
Joe Jepson moved the previous ques-
ton, but withdrew it to allow j. W..
Lawrence to make vigorous speech in
opposition to the motion, which G. L..
Locke very cleverly answered. Col.
Glenn thought the resolution referred to
him, and proceeded to indulge in some
gOod-humored personal "reminiscences.
E. L. Gibson-Don't be deceived by
the calm of this convention. 1t only
precedeS the storm in st. Paul. This
unit rule will give US strength to meet
that storm.
Capt. w. II. Mills got on the floor
while the motion was put to the house.
1t was carried with hurrah, and while
the captain continued talking, the con-
yention authorized the delegation to fill
all vacancies and adjourned.

is receiving more attention than any
other, and that woman is achieving the
highest results in the fields of litera-
ture, art and science. 1t is hoped
that all who are interested in
the development of this field will
take an interest and lend helping
hand in making this department COM
plete, and will cooperate with the SUI
perlntendent and committee in obtain
ing the most perfect collection possible.
1t will certainly prove source of pleas
ure, profit and instruction to those who
contribute to it, as well as to the gen.
eral public. The articles desired are
first-clasS and notable specimens of
hand work for use or ornament, pro-
ducts of greenhouse (Same being pro-
duced by the labor of women), models,
drawings, Or full-siZed samples of in
ventiOns, working drawings for fabrics,
wall papers, oil cloths, carpets, furni-
ture, etc., architectural plans and draw
ings, or anything in fact, the production
of which has enabled women to add to
their incomes or to establish successful
businesses.
A book department is contemplated
which shall contain samples of woman'S
literary work in the form of books, mag
aZineS and newspapers. Also picture
department., containing the work of fe-
male designers of pictures for illustra-
ton, etc.
AS an addition to the woman's depart
ment, considerable space will be de-
voted to the display of curiosities, an
tiquitieS, heir looms and articles of his
torical value, the collection and preser-
vation of which is peculiarly woman's
work. 1t is designed to show in this
department everything that by the most
liberal construction could be included
under its comprehensive title, from the
product of the kindergarten class to the
most finished masterpiece of human
skill, and the superintendent invites
correspondence from any and everyone
interested in the enterprise as exhibitor
or otherwise.
Mrs. E, r. Holbrook will be superin-
tendent and the following ladies are ad-
vising committee: Mrs. o. A. Prey,
Mrs. George Miller, Mrs. M. B. Lewis,
Mrs. G. j. Martin and Mrs. Isabella G.
Marsdon.

accomplished fact and a marked sue
cess, and has shown it is, for the cOun-
try, the safest, best and most peaceful
the nation has known. On the other
hand. all is confusion and dismay on the
Republican side. Since Blaine has had
no stomach for renewal of the fight,
since he has written another letter that
his friends wished burned, there
is no unison of thought, no con-
cert of action in their ranks.
There are candidates, it is true, but
there is none of them but would be
honored by being defeated by Grover
Cleveland. The nation is safe and the
national Democratic party is all right.
The Democratic flag is sure to float
over the capitol at Washington, but we
must make it our business to see that it
floats as well over the capitol at st.
Paul. Nothing is necessary but united
action, and for that we are here as an
undivided Democracy and a rebuke to
those who predicted division and dis
cord. The path has been laid down by
the firmneSS of one man at Washington,
and on the tariff we will make our fight.
Our enemies become our friends on
this issue, and those who are left f1oun-
der in uncertainty. The straightfor-
ward path is for us, and it is guarded
by principle on either side. Party sue
cess will depend only upon individual
effort, imbued by personal feeling and
unSWerved by personal jealousy.

A LITTLE EPISODE.
A Too Independent Citizen Had to
Be EXtinguished.

Be EXtinguished.
There was one incident of the conven-
ton unpleasant enough and yet laugha-
BILE, that cannot be omitted from the
veracious history. Ed Cramsie was
there. He was not a delegate, but he
was warm enough for all pur-
poses. When the convention got under
way, Col. CramSie crept out from be-
hind the stove and slowly made his way
until he sit in vacant chair on the
front row. He was not noticed until
the speech making began, when he broke
out in what was intended for encourag
ing comment. At first, everybody
laughed and regarded it. as joke, but
when it continued, Chairman Mareck
flushed and requested the noisy colonel
to subSide. This had no effect, and
finally a a Third ward delegate moved
the appointment of a committee of
three TO confer with the nuisance and
induce it to retire. Three Stalwart
braves were chosen and marched to the
scene of action, prepared for duty.
CramSie remarked that he was John l..
Sullivan and would be led, not pushed
out, and he wanted no rude hand laid
on his broadcloth. He backed slowly
out and was finally swallowed up in the
crowd at the rear. There was no police
officer present, of course, but one WAS
brought by an anxious delegate Just too
late to put his service into use. The
convention resumed its good humor and
went ON. Cramsie muttered:
''YOu won't want to hustle me around
this way in November"

The Hennepin Delegation to
the Democratic State Con-
Vention So Instructed.
A Convention Remarkable for
It's Intelligence and the
Peaceful Proceedings.
rhe Delegation a Strong One
and Every Wing and Fac
ton Given Its Share.
All Parties Satisfied and the
Ames Wing Claiming a
Regal Endorsement.

Turner hall, from which the Democ-
racy of Minneapolis and Henneptn
county has so often sent out unanswer-
able problems and victorious cham
pions, was as cold as the Republican
heart yesterday at noon, when the CO.
horts of Democracy assembledin county
convention. 1t was not even warmed
by the heat of fierce debate or the play
of angry passions. 1t was too harmonl-
Gus for any use. Great clouds OF peace
tioated about on the hum of cOnverSa-
ton, and there was enough cigar smoke
ladening the ambient atmosphere to act
as an opiate on any belligerent inten-
tionS that might arise. Not a word or
an action was allowed to go out that
would indicate that aught but holy
calm brooded over the aSsemblage. 1t
was conceded Titus Mareck would be
elected chairman, every alleged faction
having agreed to it, with the under
standing that Seagrave Smith was to
make the nomination and A. T. Ankeny
should second it. AS both of these gen.
tlemen were put in the list of those who
were out for AmeS, first, last and all the
time, the belief grew that no matter
how much the point might prOtrude,
the spear of war carried garland upon
its blade.
The war horses were all present, but
Mayor AmeS was nowhere to be seen.
His personal friends were there in full
force, but, as if by some precOncerted
arrangement, there was no talk that
went beyond the party, and individual
iSms were eschewed. p. 3. Winston
was numerous among the delegates,
making acquaintances here and there.
Col. Glenn shook hands with everybody
in sight and seemed the soul of happy
contentment. A group, which con-
tanned f. NJ. Wilson, A. 7. Ankeny,
Seagrave Smith, Scion Armstrong,
Theodore Basting and Frank Morse,
was pointed out as the conservatives,
and their conversation was limited to
general politics. Orville Reinhart and
J. w. Lawrence represented the com
mittee and were kept busy receiving
the credentials. Judge Hauser, Dick
Huntington, L. j. Buxton and others
fringed the outskirts and viewed the
battle from the distance of safety.
Everybody talked harmony, and Fred
BrueShaber quietly and secretly de-
stroyed pocketful of ballots labeled:
For chairman, Titus Mareck."

UGLY MEN.
Comment on Stevenson's Late Por.
trait in the Century.


Boston Herald.
A we'll known Southern newspaper is
much impressed with the ugliness of
the portrait in the Century of Robert
Louis Stevenson. 1t says: eff he looks
at all like the portrait that Alexander
made of him, he will depopulate the
state. 1t is not necessary that a
man should be nightmare in order to
be a genius" Whereupon one of it's
contemporaries cruelty twits it with the
statement that it's own literary editor is
not beauty. Which reminds us of the
story of man who was made so ugly
that he was supposed to be unique, and
made VOW that, if he ever met worse
looking man than himself, he would kill
him on sight. The narrator goes on to
say that he was out hunting once when
he suddenly came upon just this prod
ICY. He raised his gun to fire at him,
when the other asked why this homi-
cidal spirit. The first named man re-
lated his VOW. 'Shoot away, then!'
at once returned the other. eff l am
homelier than you l want to die!'
