CONVENTION ON WHEELS.
What Bismarck People Think of
the jamestown Scheme.

What Bismarck People Think of
the jamestown Scheme.
Special to the Globe.
BISMARCK, Oak, July 7.-Many of
the delegates to the constitutional con-
vention left for their homes last even
ing to remain over Sunday. There is
very little caucusing and 10 excitement
in political circles here to-day, but it is
understood that the jamestown people
will extend the invitation for the con-
vention to adjourn to that point to-mor-
row. The strength possessed by James
town in this movement is unknown,
and it is evident that the matter has
been looked upon as a Joke by many of
the delegates. Aside from the unpre-
cedented presumption and gall of
the proposition the power of
the convention to take any
such action is doubted, as the
enabling act deSignates Bismarck for
the place of meeting, and further says
that the conventions in all of the terri
tories shall be at the several capitals,
with the exception of South Dakota,
which shall be at Sioux Falls. If the
invitation should by any freak of poll
tics be accepted. it will not be week
before dozen other invitations will be
extended, and the convention placed on
wheels. According to the JimtOwn:
idea, parties desiring to attend the
convention should telegraph ahead. as
certaining its probable whereabouts OH
a given date. There is very little taIk;
here to- night Oh the question of taking
the appointment of commissioner out q.
the hands of President Fancher, and in
all probability the scheme will failf
through.

LONDON, July THE shah, accom-
panied by the Prince and Princess of
Wales and others of the royal family,
went to Bayswater this afternoon to at
tend garden party given in the shah's
honor by the Persian minister here,
Prince Macolm Khan. The shah goes
to Hatfield tomorrow, where he will be
entertained by Lord Salisbury. The
shah's visit, if productive of no other
permanent results, has at least served
to start an immense Persian boom
among financiers in London. Baron
Reuter- is engineering a big Persian
bank scheme which promises to enlist
millions of English capital. He has
already obtained a concession from the
shah for his bank, with the right to
issue legal tender notes and to circulate
them throughout the Persian dominion
on par with specie. The bank also
has secured other concessions said to be
of great value, among which are the
right to work some of the rich mineral
deposits in Persia, and to build and
operate railways.

NEW YORK. July THE few board
ers at the Long Branch hotels had a
dreary time of it during the first week
of the season, but last evening a gen.
uine sensation woke them all up. 1t
happened about Z o'clock, in front of
the Unired States hotel. Ocean ave-
nue. was filled with turnOuts, Every
body who could afford it was taking an
after-dinner drive. A Mr.. Peters, of
New York, was driving leisurely down
the avenue in an open surrey. Just as
he reached the United States gateway
Mrs. Peters came to the side of the
wagon, seized his whip and began to
lay it about his head. Mr.. Peters could
make no resistance as the horse. not
liking the swish of the whalebOne, be-
came decidedly nervous.
"I'll teach you to go out driving with
other women, and in my wagon, too, J"
exclaimed Mrs. Peters. and she went on
with her lesson-vigorously. When she
away with the parting words, "If you
know what's good for you you'll come
right home now"
Mr.. Peters, it appeared, had taken his
wife's surrey yesterday afternoon, to
take Miss frankie Kemble, the bur
lesque actress, out to drive. He had
left her at the west end, when he met
his wife, but that lady had hardly got
ten out of sight in her hack
when Miss Kemble and Edward Clay
bury came down the avenue on foot.
Mr.. Peters had just succeeded in get
ting his horse to stand on the ground
when they appeared beside him. After
exchanging a few words with Mr.. Pc
tiers, the couple got into the wagon with
him and drove around the corner to the
cottage occupied by Miss Kemble. The
lady went into the house. Mr.. Clay
bury and Peters stood on the sidewalk
talking, when around the corner came
fiutter of blue silk. flash of russell
shoes, and an infant later two bedia-
monded fists were battering Mr.. Peters
eyes. The man made no attempt at re-
sistance nor did he say one word to his
wife. -----
'.Now, sir" said she, "you get into
that wagon and sit there till come"
Without a show of dissent he Obeyed.
Mrs. Peters went into the cottage to in
terview Miss Kemble.
When she came out she got into the

dinner, after which they drove to the
Ocean hotel and took seats upon the
back piazza. Mr.. Peters tried to eX-
plain, but he only succeeded in anger
ing his wife afresh. Running out to
the wagon, she exclaimed: Nobody
rides in this wagon but me-" She
seized the whip. lashed the horses into
a run, and drove swiftly up the avenue,
leaving her husband alone. Mrs. Peters
is small of stature, very plump, very
blonde and very pretty. She is thirty
three years of age, but looks much
younger. She has yellow hair, cut
short, and very curly: pink and white
complexion, and baby mouth. Mr..

After a Quarrel With Her Hus-
band, She Accepts a Brazilian's
Protection.
ATLANTIC CITY, NJ, July 7.-There
were real actors in real melodrama
here to-day. Pretty Jennie Ward was
one of the principals. and DR.. DesiIva, a
dark-skinned but handsome Brazilian,
who is we'll known in Philadelphia, sue
cessfully played the role of "the deep
and his pretty young wife, Jennie
the Beacon Light company, thew
brought their infant prodigy, Baby
William, to the city by the sea for
a rest, and, if possible, an engagement.
They drifted down town to AL
brecht's hall. the one Thespian tenn
pie, where all artists who are bohemian
izing can be found. Latterly the wife
and child signed for short engagement.
Miss Jennie Ward sang in serio-comic
songs and Baby Williams did special
ties, while Odell Wllloms helped to
consume the salary. The plan was
happy one until DR.. Desilva appeared
on the scene. He had lots of time and
cash to spare and devoted both to pretty
Miss Ward as she was on the bills.
Champagne flowed freely and the doc
tor was always at hand to contribute to
the comfort and entertainment of the
serio-comic singer. Odell Williams did
not see as much of his wife as he
thought proper, so last night he took
her to task for being too free in
her attentions. The conversation
took place in their bed room off
of the Albrecht's garden. She asserted
her independence and said she would
actor said she should not. A stormy
scene followed, and the climax was
reached by Odell, who produced their
marriage certificate, which he tore into
shreds with all the proper dramatic en-
phasis. Then he violently pushed her
aside, and in an excited condition she
rushed down stairs, where the dark and
handsome doctor sat musing over the
last of a pint bottle. She demanded
his protection. Chivalrously he
raised his right hand and sug-
gested flight. An hour later the doc
tor, Mrs. Williams and the baby prodigy
were seated in the carriage which is
said to be the property of the doctor,
and were seen driving furiously over
the meadows toward Hammonton.
This morning they took train to Phila-
delphia. and are now said to be en-
route to Rio Jaheiro. where the doctor
has wealthy father. OdelI Williams.
since their flight, has been acting like
maniac. He has been going around
with a revolver ready to shoot either
his wife or her companion. He declares
he will follow them to the ends of the
earth. Mrs. Williams is the daughter
of Nathan Ward, of Piedmont, n. Y,
and has been married about three years.

PEACE AT DULUTH,
The Rioters Afraid to Show Their
Heads.

Special to the Globe
DULUTH, June 7.-There were no new
developments in the strike situation to-
day. Little talk has been indulged in,
but that little has been of decidedly
determined nature. About fifty special
policemen were sworn in, and will be
ready at moments notice tomorrow
morning if necessary. Not one of the
rioters has shown himself on the streets,
nor were there any meetings. 1t was
rumOred on the streets this afternoon
that quantity of dyn amite had been
stolen from the storehouse of one of the
contractors. The authorities deny that
any has been secured, and it is the gen.
eral opinion that the strike has been
effectually quelled. twenty-five Win
chester rifles were taken to police head
quarters this evening, and dozen or
two breech-loading shotguns are also in
readiness for any emergency. Ample
protection will be afforded workingmen,
though it is believed that none will be
needed,

Till Next July 4.
WASHINGTON. July 7.-Although the
navy department has issued an order
to the effect that hereafter all flags
made for the navy shall contain forty
two stars, request from the assistant
treasurer at New York for flag of this
description has been refused by the
treasury department. The officials of
the revenue marine bureau, which dis
tributes flags to the custom houses, rev.
enue marine boats, etc.. hold that a
flag with fOrty-two stars is not legal
flag, and will not be until the next fourth
of July, according to law and the ad-
mission OF the new states. The flags
with forty-two stars are just one year
ahead of time according to revenue
marine official in conversation with a
reporter yesterday. He said the local
contractor who furnishes the flags says
that all the flags which he makes for
private individuals contain the increased
number of stars. That is all right so
far as private parties are concerned, but
the government must have legal flag
or none.

riages. They are to be sighted and
aimed from below decks by the inter-

loaded below the water line and hoisted
into place by pnuematic power. The
recoil of each gun carries it back below
decks. and it is above the deck for three

rule, refused passes by the mayor and
