a Highweyman Terror zinz People Ur.
der the Terms Of Wager.
CHICAGO, lit, Nov. est is now said
that the industrious highwayman on q dark
bay horse, who has been ravaging Lake
View and ''holding up" people, is nothing
more nor less than a bloOded youth of
Evanstown who has been paying an cleo
tion bet.
This youth is a member Of the swell club
OF the town. aud several days before cleo
tion he made a bet in the club house with a
friend to this effect: "If Harrison is not
elected I'll Put on q mask, steal a horse aud
hold up every man l meet in Lake View for
four days"
"Doner the other young man shouted,
and the ridiculous wager caused no end OF a
hubbub among those present. Arrange
ments were soon completed, and all agreed
to keep the bet secret.
The young man borrowed horse in
Evanston from the barn of A. SchwRll on
Monday night, and secured black mask
and revolver.
The loser of the bet continued mis- career
until Wednesday evening, when he con-
cluded he had enough of holding people up.
He quietly rode 10 livery stable at No.
l3s North avenue and requested the pro-
prietor to stable his horse for a short time.
The proprietor had read OF the exploits Of
the mounted robber yesterday, and as no
one called for the horse, he notified the
police
MIR. Sohwall identified the animal this
morning as the one taken from his barn in
Evanston. Inspector Setback learned OF
the election bet and Immediately sent men
to Evanston TO try and discover the young
men. All of them are now thoroughly
scared over the outcome Of the matter, and
are doing everything possible to shield the
youthful robber. 1t is quite likely the
police will have hard time finding him.
With the exception Of being shot at by
Officer Fred Buckley, who chased him
some distance in a baksr's wagon, the ANA
teur highwayman told his friends that his
trip was highly successful and anu sing.

SALINA, Kan. April 20.-The Democratic
state convention to elect delegates to the
national convention met this afternoon.
Frank Lynch, editor of the Leavenworth
Standard, was made temporary chairman.
He made an eloquent address, stating that
the issue in national politics was tariff re-
form. Lynch eulogized Cleveland, and
the enthusiasm raised by the mention of
that name was unbounded. A recess was
then taken. The temporary organization
was made permanent. The platform
favors tariff reform and declares for a
tariff for revenue only, raw materials to
be admitted free of duty. The section
relative to the financial issue is as follows:
We believe a gold basis currency is INSULT
cient, and the free and unlimited coinage OF
gold and silver is demanded by the necessities
OF the people as money and not as an article of
commerce, and we invite all nations to unite
with US in securing this end. We demand the
continued use Of greeubacks as currency.
The platform further urges the selection
OF United States senators by popular vote,
favors liberal pensions and denounces the
present administration of the pension bu-
reau. On presidential candidacy the plat
instructs the delegates to the Chicago con-
vention to vote IS a unit for Grover Cleve-
land so long as his name is before the con-
vention. The resolutions were unani-
mously adopted. Beside delegates from
congressional districts, delegates at large
to the Chicago convention were elected.

Dean 100, Ewing %, Archibald 10, White
10, Sadler 1. At the conclusion of the
ninth ballot several delegates changed
their votes. mostly going 10 Dean for the
reason that Ewing's front had been broken
IN favor of Dean, under the leadership
OF Magee. Philadelphia, which had
been for Henderson, protested against
any changes. Secretary Leach was work
ing for Henderson hard. Finally the
voice of Magee was heard above the noise,
shouting Take Leach away from the
tellersl He's not member of the con-
vention." Cries of PUT Leach OUT"
II hrow him out" and lots of all sorts of
yeils followed, and stopped the work of
the convention for time. The chairman
put an end to the bad feeling by announc-
ing that the tellers were unable
to agree, and that another bal
lot would be taken. This resulted:
Dean 135. Henderson 127, Ewing
Z, Sadler 1, Dean lacking but one vote of
the number necessary to elect. Mr.. Rea,
who named Henderson, then Withdrew
him, and the nomination of Dean was
made unanimous with hurrah, bringing
to close one of the most exciting contests
for the judicial nomination ever witnessed

NEW WESTMINSTER, April 20-[Special
Edward Gleneross, eldest son OF the pro-
prietor of the Queens hotel, left for the
South today, taking with him Miss Florrie
Scott, pretty young girl of Is summers.
Young Glencross, who is only year or
two older than the girl, had evidently COM
pleted all the arrangements beforehand,
but they were nearly knocked endways
by an uncle of the intended. The couple
met on the ferry steamer Surrey, intend
ing to cross to South Westminster and
take the Great Northern railway for Seat
tie. The uncle, however, got wind of what
was happening, made his appearance on
the steamer and crossed the river with
them, using all the arguments he could
think of to induce the girl to abandon
her design, but without avail.
Fearing his sweetheart might be detained
by force, the ardent young lover hired a
horse and carriage which was on the
steamer, and when the ferry reached the
landing Miss Scott jumped into the buggy
and drove down the road a short distance,
Glencross holding the uncle in the mean
time to prevent him following. When the
buggy was sufficiently distant Glencross
broke away and, putting on good racing
pace, was soon in the buggy along with
his intended bride, and minute or two
later the rig bearing the happy couple dis
appeared down the road to Blaine, where
it is believed they will get married.
