HowUltra-Fashionabie Young
Men of Boston Spend Their
Leisure Hours.

Boston Correspondence.
This is the greatest club town in the
world. Every phase OF the intellect
ual activity for which Boston is so
famous is represented by a social or
ganization. There is going on here
what might be called perpetual fer
mentationofideas, scientific, philosoph;
ical, literary, religious-every kind.
in short, that interests highly civilized
humanity-all of which are seeking
expression and recognition, very much
as the molecules OF gas strive inces-
sanity to escape from the receiver con-
fining them. Now, the most effective
way to push an idea, as every one
admits, is over a dinner table. The
man who would otherwise regard
your pet hobby as no end OF a
bore will listen to you patiently as
an accompaniment to the nuts and
raisins, and, with extra-dry cham
payne and q pousse-cafe to top of,
your most uninteresting remarks will
appear to him positively oracular.
Thus it happens that fordinin g clubs
there is a perfect craze in this enlight-
ened metropolis. Everybody who is
ANYBODY belongs to at least half n
dozen, each OF which represents some
thing calculated to excite cornwall en-
thusiasm, say, once q month. The
object 30 which this enthusiasm is di-
rected is OF comparatively little impor-
lance. so long as the grub is paiatable
and the wine ofgood flavor. 1t may be
theological, political, musical, artistic
whatever you please. Every religi-
Gus denomination in Boston has its
representative club, with the solitary
exception of the Episcopalians, who
are lust now organizing one. Theirs
will be the SWEETEST OF all-for the
fashionable portion OF the town,
though honeycombed With more or
less agnostic Unitarianism, is profess
IDLY devoted to the church OF En-
gland. At periodical intervals each
pious sodality is assembled Tor the
purpose OF discussing over the festive
board such important questions OF
sectarian interest as may chance to
be uppermost. Likewise the literary
coteries meet for mutual admiration,
the scientific people for learned dis.
cussion, the politicians for the incuba-
ton of Machiaveilian schemes, and so
on ad infinitum. There ishot, IN short,
an imaginable subject OF contempt
raneous human interest which is not
represented in Boston by a club.

The Democratic Convention.

The Democratic National Conven-
tion met in Exposition Hall in St.
Louis, Tuesday noon, and though
there was a tremendous crowd pre-
sent, it was generally considered to
be the quietest and stupidest National
Convention that has ever met in this
country.
The nominations of Cleycland for
President. and that of Thurman for
Vice President were generally con-
ceded, and the only fight in the Con-
vention promised to be that in the
tariff plank of the platform. Waiter
son of Kentucky led the extreme tar
if reformers, and German of Mary
land, moderate tariff man led the
other crowd. Watterson's crowd
seemed to be in the majority, but it
was thought that Scott Of Pennsyl,
vania would bring about a COM
promise.
Next day, Cleveland was put in
nomination by Dan Dougherty and
be was nominated unanimously amid
the widest excitement. The plat
form committee was not yet ready to
report, and the nomination for Vice
President was left over till Dext day,
and the Convention adjourned after a
two hours session.
The Committee on the Platform
had been in session for thirty-six
hours. The fight was over the Mills
Bill and it is said to have been voted
down, and the tariff plank of 1884 and
Cleveland's last annual message
adopted in its stead.

The Oil Shut Down.

The Executive Board of the Oil
Producers Protective Association has
just prepared comparative statement
of the effect of the compulsory shut
down during the first six months that
it has been in force, with November,
and December, 1887, and January,
February, March and April Of 1888.
AS compared with the same months
of 1886 81 there was decrease in the
amount produced of 1921, 1926 barrels;
decrease in daily average, %. TAT bar
rels; increase in shipments, 239. 837
barrels; decrease in stock in six
months, SSH $50. There was also
a decrease in certificates of 1886, 6,748
barrels; decrease in wells completed,
$50; decrease in new production, 23,-
404 barrels; average size of wells
completed in the last six months Is so
barrels daily; average size of wells
completed in the previous six mont hs,
$500 barrels daily; per cent. dry last
elk months, 35Ia; per cent. dry prev
ious six months, 2355
The limitation of production is by
contract to November l, 1888. The
report continues: "The production
cannot possibly average over $4,000
barrels per day till then; if the ship
ments are the same as last year during
this time, stocks will be reduced to
1S,274,260 barrels in all lines; Ma
tional Transit certificates to about
$4,000, 900 barrels; should the limita-
ton he continued six months longer,
i. e., to May |, 1889, and if shipments
are the same as last year, stocks will
be II, 423, 591, and certificates only
about 100000. Many producers
wish the shut down continued till
that time. The indications, however,
are that enforced shut down will not
be required; that with all the wells
thrown open there will be little in
crease, as the books of the Producers
Protective Association show that
many who shut down are now pump
ing to their full capacity. yet cannot
produce their limit" 1t is thought
that that stocks on the first day of
next May will not exceed 1900 900
snd certificates 5000 900 barrels
