from the start there were cries Of Louder"
even from those in the front benches.
When Mr.. Jones had concluded his speech,
the Hon. John Thurston Of Nebraska, who
was oh osen by the national committee as
temporary chairman, had moved up to the
right of Mr.. Jones, and the latter lost no time
in introducing his successor. But no sooner
had the spectators seen Thurston bow in re-
sponse to the cheer of welcome than a
broad -shouldered delegate was on his
feet in the Kansas section He announced
that Kansas had candidate of its own for
temporary chairman. Mr. Jones responded
rather testify that the gentleman before
them was temporary chairman. But the
Kansas man was not to be suppressed so
easily, and he said that his colleagues de-
clined to be responsible for the action of the
national convention lhissesl, which it re-
garded as great mistake, and it demanded
a call of the roll in order that it might place
In nomination the Hon. William Warner of
Missouri. At this there was both applause
and Kisses, but Thurston, without noticing
the motion, began to deliver his address,
thus establishing the precedent that the
choice of a national committee for tempo
rary officers need not be ratified by the con-
vention. The Kansas man kept upon his
feet, however, until he said that this was not
one of his fortunate days. and then he
slowly and reluctantly resumed his seat.

that the life should be hammered out of the

There then were cries for Fred Douglass,
which finally swelled into such proportions
that the colored orator could do no less than
come to the platform. He would have
bowed his thanks and retired, for he had
broken his voice in a speech the night before
and could hardly make himself heard, but the
audience insisted on speech, and SO, with a
word of apology, he said that he hoped the
convention would make such a record in its
proceedings as would put it out of the power

resentatives were adopted, and on motion Of
delegate from Kansas, who did not give
his name, the following resolution of SYM
pathy with General Sheridan was adopted
by rising vote amid hearty cheers.
1.-THE delegates to the republican nationsl
convention, representing the surviving
comrades OF the distinguished soldier and
general of the army, Philip H. Sheridan,
and representing also the living principles
for which he so vaIiantly fought and
trumphed during the great era of the war,
send him their sincere congratulations on
the prospect of his recovery, and hone that
his life may be preserved for many years. :"
(Applause)
Unanimous consent was given to Chair
man Green of the Nebraska delegation to
present General John c. Fremont to the
convention. Mr.. Green, with the voice and
manner of tragedan, referred to the first
republican convention, to those who partici-
fact that the great leader selected by that
convention had been spared to be with them
to-day.
He was admonished to be brief by the con.
vention shouting loudly for Fremont. When
the veteran came to the front most of the
delegates got on their feet and the applause
was general.
Gen. Fremont spoke in a strong tone. He
thanked the convention for its reception.
The pride and qualification, he said. which
filed his bosom and his joy that the party
with which he had been SO prominently
identified in his early days had risen to the
position it occupied today, was unspeakable.
He expressed his regret at the absence of

A Boston club had planted its magnificent
banner, five feet long, just behind
the stage, where it proudly floated,
barring in letters Of gold upon
field Of blue the sentiments which appear
to be the uppermost in the minds of the dele
gates The banner is inscribed: "Home
Market club of Boston. American Wages
for American Workingmen. American
Markets for the American People. Protec-
ton for American Homes."' This banner
was marked by delegates as they came into
the galleries and balconies, and was cheered
time after time
The assembling of the delegates was unac-
companied by any demonstrations of a
plaudatory character, until the gray head OF
Gen. John c. Fremont, ''the Pathfinder, "
appeared, and there was oh er when it was

troduced to lead the convention in prayer.
He thanked the Lord for the intelligence and
courage under which the banners of the re

He did not wish to force gag law upon the
convention, but he moved that the motion
be laid upon the table,
The chair stated that at the last two re-
publican conventions the committee on per-
manent organization had reported before
the committee on credentials had COM
pleted its labor. He was informed that the
committee on credentials would not be
ready to report until o'clock this even
ing.
Gov. Foster of Ohio, chairman Of the COM
mittee on permanent organization, then
stepped upon the platform and read the
unanimous report of the committee. He was
given an enthusiastic reception by the audi
ence, and as he stated that M NJ. Estee Of
California, was selected for permanent chair
man of the convention. Gov. Foter pro-
ceeded to read the list of vice presidents as
selected by the various state delegations

streamers in varied designs and colors, and
portraits and paintings of historic scenes

the sunlight shines but dimly in the great
hall, the electric illumination being depend

tecting the audience in the present I'M

The arrangement of the electric lamps in

There were comparatively few OF the dele

called the convention to order at TO- 10 a, m.
The chair said that no would keep his word
as nearly as possible aud, Notwithstanding the
gaping open spaces in the delegates seats,
he raped sharply with his gavel at five min

The invocation was delivered by Rev. Thorn

and free trade, and welcomes the issue made
by the presidents message; favors the re.

Tuesday to call the national convention to
order, he looked upon scene unparalleled
in the history of public gatherings in this
country. Every face could be seen without
effort, and the audience of not less than TO-.
900 appeared to be an almost countless null
titude. The magnificent sweep of the great
gallery alone, which seats nearly 5000 per-
sons, was picture which impressed even these
familiar wlth.great audiences. aud the whole
scene bathed in flood of electric light, shed by
22O0 incandescent lamps, thrilled the most
sluggish heart The auditorium is 260 feet
long and 100 feet wide, with two side bal
comics and a great gallery, the seats in which
rise tier on tier at an angle of 40 degrees.
The stage which is but slightly raised above
the floor of the hall, commands view not
only of the great audience in front but Of a
large balcony in the rear and tier Of boxes
at either side. This stage stretches from
side to side Of the hall, and accommodates, in
addition to the presidents platform, several
hundred newspaper representatives. The
decorations appear trife bewildering at

Married Three Sisters.

The Rev. F. A. Andrews of Jeffcr-
sonville, Ind, was recently called to a
country church to preach the funeral OF
Mrs. Wascom. He remained over
night with Mr.. Wascom, and was much
surprised to learn that wedding was to
be celebrated during the evening and
he would be called upon to officiate.
The groom was Mr. Wascom and tho
bride was the sister of the recently
buried wife, and the two aged respec-
lively seventy-three and seventy-one.
Tho only witness of the ceremony was
tho greatgrandson of the groom. The
ministers establishment reached its
height when he was told by neighbors
next day that the present is Wascom' s
third wife; that the three were sisters,
and the second wedding as unceremo-
NOUS as the first.

great soldier, the captain Of our armies, who
lies SO near to death, o Lord, touch him
tenderly with thy hand. Comfort him by
thy spirit and restore him to the nation that
loves him with all health and with all hope. y
This reference to Gen. Sheridan was followed
by burst of applause which evidently
Jared upon the preachers sense propriety,
as evidenced by the grave expression which
stole over his features.
At the conclusion of the prayer the call
for the convention was read in ringing
tone by Secretary Fessenden, and the refer.
ences to the tariff; to the protection of
American labor; to tho accumulation OF the
surplus, the demand for free honest ballot
and a fair count and the question of the ad-
mission Of the territories were all loudly
cheered, especially that relating to the
tariff.
