A Full Ticket Placed in Nomination
for State Officers.


BALTIMORE, July YESTERDAY was
the big day of the year 1891 for the
Prohibition party in Maryland, the oc.
casion being the meeting of the state
convention at Glyndon, where the fol-
lowing ticket was placed in nomination:
For governor, Edward Higgins, OF
Baltimore; for comptroller, Joshua
Levh'ing, of Baltimore; for attorney
general, Hosea B. Moulton, of Mont
gomery county; for clerk of the court of
appeals, Levin S. Nelson, of Snow Hill.
Hon. William Daniels presided. After
addresses had been made by Mr.. Daniels
and number Of other prominent gentle
men the ticket above named was nomi-
mated by acclamation. The body was
composed of about 400 delegates, and
the city and every county in the state
was represented.
All the nominees are gentlemen of ex-
cellent character, but of course none of
them has the faintest expectation of be-
ing elected. Mr.. Higgins is a well
known lawyer of this city. He has for
number of years been president of the
Maryland State Temperance Alliance.
Mr.. lowering is one of the most promi-
nent merchants of Baltimore.

MARYLAND POLITICS.
The Democratic Convention Will
+ Take an Unusual Step.
WILL PLEDGE ITSELF TO GoRMAN

As His Own Successor in, the Ma
tional senate-Brown Sure of the
GubernatoriaI Nomination - The
Prohibitionists Place Full Stat'
Ticket in Nomination.
BALTIMORE, July 30.--The Democratic
state convention will meet here this
afternoon and will take the unusual step
of pledging the Democratic party to the
election of Hon. Arthur p. German to
the United States senate. So far as
known this has never been formally
done by the Democratic party anywhere
except in the case of Senator Palmer, of
Illinois. 1t would not have been done in
Maryland at the present time except fol
the fact of an effort having been made
to interpret the results of the primaries
in several counties as setback to Cor
man.
Brown Sure for Governor.
The gubernatorial nomination is
looked upon as settled. There seems to
be no doubt entertained by anybody that
ex-Postmaster Frank Brown will be the
standard bearer. The only question now
discussed in regard to the nomination is
whether it will be by ballot or by accla-
nation. Mr.. John P. Poe will undoubt
edly be named for attorney general
without formal ballot as he has no
competitor for the place on the ticket.
1t seems probable that Marion De Kalb
Smith, OF Kent county, will be named
for comptroller, and it is claimed by the
most influential politicians in the city
that he will be nominated on the first
ballot, but his competitor, Robert F.
Brattan, president of the state senate, is
large factor in the race. The silver
plank of the platform is causing a great
deal of discussion. It is, however, stated
on good authority that the convention
will declare for free silver.

ELEPHANTS.

Sir S. Baker Says That They Are Less
Intelligent Than Dogs.
In instituting a comparison between the
intelligence of dog and an elephant Sir 5.
Baker decides in favor OF the former, ''Who,
when the days work is over, lies down and
sleeps before the fire at his masters feet
and dreams of the dangers and exploits OF
tie hunt" Sir S. Baker seems to have for
gotten the old story in HSOp's Fables, where
the horse was jealous of the dog and tried TO
ingratiate itself with its master by initiating
its rivals habits Of fawning and jumping on
his lap. OF course the horse Jared BADLY in
the contrast. And so would the elephant II
lie were to try to initiate the dog and curl
himself up at his masters feet before the
campfire.
But Sir s. Baker himself Acknowledges
that the elephant is instructed and guided
by the mahout in all that he does. be
writes thus: " | do not know more agree
able sensation than the start in the early
morning on a thoroughly dependable ele-
phant, with a mahnut who takes Il real In
terest in his work. A thorough harmony
exists between man and beast, and you feel
prepared for anything. But how much de-
pends upon that mahOut! 1t is impOSsl-
bic for a hystaGdrr TO comprehend the
secret signs which are mutually under
stood by the elephant and his guide-the
elephant detects every movement, how
ever slight, and is thus mysteriousiy
guided by its intelligence; the mighty
beast Obeys the unseen helm of
thought, just as huge ship yields. by ap-
parent instinct, to the rudder which directs
her course" And he goes on to observe
"What must be the result should an ele-
plant be guided by mahout of uncertain
temperament? The great trouble when
riding on an elephant is the difficulty in
getting the mahout to obey an order. In
tiger-shooting the elephant will at once de-
tect anything like tenor on the part of the
mahout. Frequently a good elephant may
be disgraced by the nervousness Of his ma
houi, nothing being so contagious "a fear.
After this testimony it seems reasonable to
think that the elephant is as much superior
in intelligence to the dog as the mahout is
to the Acknowledgements Magazine.

Mamie Munson and One Austin Arrested
for Stealing 1t.
Mamie Munson and Edward Austin were
arrested yesterday by Detectives Seymour
and Hauley and charged with grand lar
ceny. They lived together at T0S Taylor
street, and recently conceived the idea of
stealing some of the wealth Of J. II.
Hawkins. bachelor living at Ala 0'Farrell
street. On the 18th inst. Mamie called upon
Hawkins, with whom she had a slight ac-
Quaintauce, and borrowed dollar. The
object of her visit was really to ascertain
where he kept his money, and during the
absence of Hawkins she re.entered his
abode with a skeleton key and carried off
$40 in currency and gold. She deposited a
stolen 500 bill at the Hibernia Bank and
changed another at the store of Keane
Bros. Then she fled to Napa and remained
there until Austin telegraphed that the
coast was clear here and asked her to come
back. She returned and divided the re-
