Preparing the Exposition for the Demo-
cratic Convention.
ST. LOUIS, February 2~5.-Regardirg tn,
place to hold the Democratic National
Convention in this city, Mr.. John H
johnson, Secretary of the st. Louis Expo
ton, says:
Before the st. Louis delegation de-
parted for Washington I was told by some
of the members of the committee that We
had best be prepared to make ready for o
place to put the convention when it came
here. I did not think the st. Louis folks
were very sanguine of success, but l assured
them that they could have anything and
everything we had to accommodate them.
The result has shown indefatigsble work
on their part, and much credit is due them.
Gas there could be no definite arrange
ments made abouta hall when they left, of
course, none will be made until they re-
turn on Sunday, when, l suppose, they
will shape matters to send into the Expo
sition Directors a formal request for quar-
tiers in which to hold the Convention. / do
not think they will want Grand Music Hall
as il will not be large enough to transact
the work comfortably. W. are fixing up
the north nave in the Exposition building
for the National Ssugerfest, which begins
on the 18th Of June. This nave. with the
gallery, will comfortably seat 70, 1000 peo-
pie, and it requires all this space to ac-
commodate the Sengerfest. The architects
are at work putting their plans in shape
and arranging for proper acoustics. This
will, I think, make a more advantageous
place to hold the Convention than in
Grand Music Hall, but, Of course, any
thing we have is at their disposal. re-
81 am more than pleased that the early
part of June has been selected as the time
to hold the convention. have made OBJ
servations for years, and the weather sta
tistics show that the weather in June in
st. Louis is the finest and most propitious
of the year. The rainy season is over and
we have full blown spring in oil its gran
deur. l forgot to speak of our other facili-
ties in the Exposition building for taking
care Of the National Convention, as regards
halls and rooms for committees, there be-
ing a sufficient number for any amount Of
committee work.
with such a central location as st
Louis, | think we will have q bigger Jam
than we had during the Grand Army week.
With the National Democratic Convention
in this city Just when the June races are
at their height, and the Saeugerfsst fol-

A QUEER FIND.
A Gorious 5 1T of Zones Found In a Stone
Quarry.

A C0rious ut of Zones Found In a Stone
Quarry.
ALTON, ILL February 25.-For some
time workmen in a quarry near here have
observed in the rocks st one point, sipSu-
lar pstrified bones. Biologists here have
been greatly puzzled to know what sort of
a creature the animal could have been,
since the age of the rocks in the quarry
(St. Louis Limestone) was generally sup
posed to be beyond the age ofreptiles, and
as the fishes of that time had cartilsgenous
skeletons. Yesterday, after a blast, more
OF the curious remains were noticed.
There was an enormous jaw nearly two
!eet in length, filled with sharp, pointed
teeth. The jaw aud teeth are black, and
stand out in bold relief from the white
limestone. The teeth are as thick as q
finger, five or xix inches long, and fixed in
a deep socket in the jaw. Prof. McAdams,
OF this city, thinks the remains are the
Oldest yet known to biologists, believing
the creature was a monstreus Bitrachian,
or tsilless anphibian, in shape not very
unlike q huge frog.

them believing that che had taken up her
abode in that State. Little was thought
Of the matter for some time until 1t

news Of her whereabouts was learned until
Yesterday morning, when her body was
found in Poca river, having been cast up
by the recent high water in that stream.
A coroner's inquest was held, as it was sus-
pected there was foul play. Her brain
was examined, but no evidence OF death
discovered from that source. Further ex-
animation showed that she might have
died from the effects of an abortion, The
verdict of the jury had not been rendered
up to q late hour last evening. There 10 a

The Great Disaster In China-DEath OF an
Old Official.
SAN FRANCISCO, February 25.-The
steamer San Pablo has arrived from Hong
kong and Yokohama. The China papers
announce the death of Gideon Nye, United
States Vice Consul at Canton. He was the
oldest foreign resident in China, having
gone there in 1888. He amassed a fortune
of Sc, coo, 900 and afterwards lost it all.
At the time OF his death he was writing q
history of China's relations with foreign
powers.
Smallpox continues to spread in Hong
Kong. About go deaths have occurred
during January.
II GREAT DISASTER.
A few additional details are given Of the
second disaster at Yellow River, which
occurred December 4, and resulted in the
drowning Of three Mandarins aud four
thousand Chinese laborers. The men were
at work at the time repairing the damage
caused by the previous floods and two
thousand bamboo RATS had been laden with
stone in order to form a break-water, but
the RATS with all the workmen upon them
we're eDgulfed as soon as they reached the
middle of the river. Great suffering is re-
ported from the flooded districts. Cold
weather came on and the whole country
was soon flooded over, making it impossi-
bic for boats to reach the villages. In all
the large cities huts have been erected by
the authorities for the accommodation Of
THE SUFFERERS.
Between thirty and forty thousand are
being thus housed and fed in the city
of Chochiakin. The whole country Is a
sad spectacle, and stories of suffering and
destitution come from every direction. 1t
is estimated that twenty Thousand stacks
of millet stalks will be needed to stop the
great zap, each stack requiring fifty large
carts to briag it 70 the spot. So far the
utmost exertions have not succeeded in
collecting more than thirty stacks a day.
Eight million taels have already been ex-
