contest as one who probably went to
grog shop, he did not confine himself to
facts, The case of Pendleton who made the
rival contest, was the peer of the gentleman
from North CerOlina or any other gentle
man here. His meeting was not held in q
grog shop, but in republican place where
every convention had been held for years.
He did not come here to be called a trick
ster and habitue of grog shops He had
seconded the motion to admit both dele
cations because as true republican from
Virginia, recognizing the ninth district as
the banner district of Virginia republi-
canlsm, loving its people whether they
come here under the banner of Malone or
Wise, it grieved him to see her misrepre-
sented in the convention. Applause.
Hess of Missouri, called for the
previous question and under the
call the convention adopted the motion to
seat the Wood delegates by an over
Ginning vote.
The question being upon the adoption Of
the remainder of the majority report of
the credentials committee, Mr.. Reader of
Pennsylvania demanded the decision of
the question and each separate case in dis
pute be voted upon by itself and it was
agreed to.
Fessenden of Connecticut moved to re-
consider the vote by which the conven-
ton admitted the Wood delegation from
the ninth district.
Butterworth of Ohio moved to lay the
motion on the table. After a long parlia-
meutary wrangle the question was put
and Butterworth's motion prevailed, PAP
to 1874. The question recurred upon the
admission of the delegates from the sec
ond district of Virginia.
The majority report seats the Wise dele
gates and the minority report, which seats
the Malone delegates, was offered as a
substitute. A call of the States was had
upon the adoption of the substitute. A
laugh went through the assembly when
Ohio, being called, Gov. Foraker
arose and stated there were 3S
delegates present. 10 of them
voted yes, 10 nay. The minority report
was rejected, yeas $50, nays SIP. The an
nouncement of the vote was reciyed with
applause and the majority report was then
adopted as a whole, applicable to all the
Virginia districts.
The convention then at 11:25 adjourned
until tomorrow at 10 o'clock.

CHICAGO, June 10. - The convention
opened at 1880 amid great enthusiasm.
There was an audience of 5000 in the hall.
Jones, chairman of the national commit
tee, made a speech and presented J. NJ.
Thurston of Nebraska, former Yer
monter, for temporary chairman. He
made a splendid speech and created great
enthusiasm. His sentiment that Blaine IS
wishes as expressed in his letter must not
be disregarded was enthusiastically APP
p!auded
There,is'much Blaine sentimentyet how
ever, and Senator HOar of Massachusetts
to-day expressed fears of a stampede for
Blaine. The only excitement during the
organization was the contest between
Wise and Malone in regard to the con
testing delegations from Virginia. 1t
was stopped by passing it over to the com
mittee on credentials. Henry Ballard has
been appointed one of the reading clerks
of the convention. The situation is un-
changed to night, and think 1t still looks
ike Depew and Harrison. Crowds are
parading the streets booming Alger, Har
rison and Blaine.

BOStOn'S Girl Gamblers.

One ofthe men who took part in the conversation was a physician, who deposed that good middle-class family-a girl who is pretty, well educated and fond of social life. She receives from her father a very tolerable allowance, which is paid to her quarterly. With this she sets to work to play poker, and she plays as long as she has money. Sometimes she wins and then all goes well. Sometimes she loses, and then she first loses her sleep and then becomes hysterical, her disorder increasing with the a. mopnt of her losses, so that about once in every three montks the medical adviser is called in to soothe her nerves and bring her back to a reasonable condition. She
 
 frankly confdes all her experiences to the physician and always prom ises instant amendment, her vows being received with as mitch credit as they deserve, it being perfectly evident that she will break them as soon as opportunity offers. This statement led to others and the i'm pression left is that there is com paratively large class of gambling women among the well-to-Go mer- cantile families of this town-that the girls are quite as confirmed gamblers as their brothers could be and far more reckless.-Providcnce J ournal.

He was Satisfied.

The officer at the Third street de- pot found two men jawing yester- day, and after sending one away said to the other:
 "You are very foolish to get up a wrangle here"
 "But he threated to hit me on the snout!" protested the stranger.
 @Yes, but what do you care?"
 "I don't care about his threat, but it was hls language. 1 protest against the term snout !"
 He meant nose, I presume"
 ''I presume so, but why didn't he say so? That's what l was asking him, and that's what I want to know He could have just as we'll told me in a quiet,genteel way that he would hit me in tRe nose, and he might even have hit me"
 Well, you'd better let him alone "
 He didn't, though. He slipped away and renewed the controversy, and ten minutes later he came back with his nose knocked into the mid dle of lest week and one eye clos ing.
 Il told you," said the officer. "Are you satisfied now?"
 II am, sir. It's snout, and a mighty bad ore !"

They Do Exist.

Yes, my son. yes. There are COW boys on the reund-up to day wlo are graduates of Harvard and Yale and Dartmouth, and I'm not posi- tive but there may be one or two from Vassar Yes, yes; there are cowhoys who are genuine cowboys from hat bands to spurs, who are miracles of erudition and living volumes of classic lore, and who speak fiuentiy and correctly all languages under the sun except the English. They reserve that to talk slang with and to swear in. You don't want to go West to find the college bred cowboy. Oh, no. In the magazines, my son, in the magazines. The cowboy on the range IS a good fellow, cordial, gen erous, brave, the best rider in the world, rough and hearty, but he isn't the child of the university, and he isn't the child of culture. The cowboy who rides with short stir rups and eyeglasses, my boy, dis appears when you get to the land where the COWS are. His range is east of the Chicago meridian Brooklyn Eagle,
