The Matter Of Revising the Constitution
Postponed for q Year.
OMAHA, Neb., May 12.-Bishop New
man presided at the session of the
Methodist conference this morning. A
large number of resolutions of no spe-
cial significance were introduced and
referred. The conference then laid
aside the regular order, and took up the
discussion Of constitutional revision.
The matter of the constitutionality of
the admission of lay delegates to the
conference was discussed pro and con
at great length, in ten-minute speeches.
Considerable warmth was developed at
times.
DR.. Goucher offered q substitute,
knocking out nearly all Of the preamble
in the report, declaring that the section
OF the law enacted in relation to lay rep
resentation, partook of the nature of a
legislative enactment, but the principle
was constitutional one. Adopted.
DIR. Buckley moved to postpone the re-
port indefinitely, and that new consti-
ton be reported by the commission at
the next general conference. After a
sharp wrangle the motion carried, 233 to
100.
The impression is gaining ground that
the advocates of the scheme to elect
more bishops is meeting with great sue
cess the last few days, since the scheme
to relocate some of the Episcopal resi-
dences came to the front.
The subcommittee to which the mat
ter OF electing a colored bishop was re-
ferred, reported unfavorably.
The candidates for the various offices
to be filled, are working with redoubled
zeal as the time of election draws near.

COMMENT ON THE AMERICAN GAME


why the Colonies Are Getting HopeIessly
in the Rear.
1t is more than probable that no more
games win be played this season on the
Oakland grounds. All games scheduled
for the capital of Alameda county for
this week, have been transferred to the
Haight-street grounds. This means
that Oakland may, in the very near
future, be dropped for either Sacra-
mento or Stockton. At least, that is
the way the wind appears to be blowing
just at present.
The Colonels are tip top team out OF
luck. That is the general opini on.
There is undoubtedly another reason for
poor showing thus far, and one has not
got far to look for the trouble. There is
no head or tail to the team. Colonel
Robinson promised to keep his hands
off this season, but he didn't. The
colonel is the hoodoo. 1t is remarkable
how little he knows about ball playing,
considering the number of years he has
been connected with the national pas
time, The colonel is hail fellow well
met and is quite a boomer in some re-
spects, but he holds the worlds record
for letting good men slip through his
fingers. He very seldom gives man a
fair trial, and in consequence,
the knowing ones refuse to sign
with such an erratic manager.
There is the greatest dissension in the
ranks of the Colonels and the inclusion
of Tip O'Neill in the team has made the
chasm wider. Under judicious manage
ment the 'Colonels. as at present constr
tuted, could undoubtedly be made to
strike winning gait.

twirler from Los Angeles, has been

THE ADVOCATE.
NEW YORK ALL RIGHT.

The hopes that Republicans had
from Democratic divisions in New
York are fading away, The situation
in New York could not be improved.
All factions are working for National
victory, and there are no sulkers in
the Democratic army.
Lieut.-Gov. Sheehan is at the head
of the State organization. Harrity
and ex-Secretary Whitney are at the
head of the national organization, and
if there is anybody who is disgruntled
he has not made it known.
The Democrats in New York have
shown great moderation and the
highest wisdom. The necessary har-
mony for success in that State seemed
at one time impossible and the
country was deluged with prophecies
as to what would happen if Mr..
Cleveland was nominated. These
grueful predictions have not been
verified and instead of chaos and dis
order we now find perfect harmony
and united action and campaign in
which from both sides there is an
earnest and enthusiastic support
In this regard other Democrats may
take lesson from New York breth-
rem. Political contests always engen-
der some feeling, not only in Ken
lucky, but in other States. There are
the remnants of breaches not yet
healed. AS the contest warns up
these will disappear, and by the cleo
ton the Democrats will be more
united than ever before in their his
tory, and they will win victory
which will save the country from the
spoi!ation of an Ubiquitous tariff.

Some Norwegian Traits.

Serious crime is almost unknown
The punishment for murder is de-
capitation at the block by the public
executioner; but during the two years
l lived in Norway there was but one
murder and execution, for the MUIR
derer was never identified.
The Christiania police seem to have
very little to do except to warn peo-
pie politely not to violate the city or
dinace forbidding people TO stand and
talk on the pavement and to arrest an
occasional drunkard.
Railways are comparatively few in
Norway, owing to the cost of con-
struction in mountainous country,
and to dissemination of the people to
speculative enterprise. The high
ways, however, are excellent, and one
may "travel post" almost anywhere
in a public carriole or post-chaise.
The post stations are seven miles
apart, and the traveller changes horses
and carriage at each one of these
stations.
In certain remote country districts
there are no inns; and here the trav-
eller must lodge with the nearest
farmer or priest. These people are so
hospitable that they occasionally re-
fuse to take pay, and invite the trav-
eller to remain with them as as long
as he will; but the fare is often
primitive. l have frequently found
in summer that a farmers larder con
tanned nothing but thick, sour milk
and rye bread, with sweet milk to
Moments.

1t used to be considered prejudical
to good health to partake Of food just
before going to bed. But many
physicians now recommend to theii
patients light meal before retiring
Many persons, though not actually
sick, keep below par in strength and
general tone. Their fasting during
the long interval between supper and
breakfast and especially the complete
emptiness of the stomach during
sleep partially occasion, in the opin-
ion of many physicians, their ema-
citation, sleeplessness and general
weakness. Physiology teaches that
in the body there is perpetual disin-
tegration of tissue, sleeping or wax
ing it is therefore logical to believe
that the supply of psurishment should
be somewhat continuous, especially in
those who are below par, if we would
counterfeit their emaciation and low
cred degree of vitality; and as bodily
exercise is suspended during sleep,
with wear and tear correspondingly
diminished, while digestion, assim-
ilation, and nutritive activity contin-
ne as usual, the food furnished during
this period adds more than is destroy
ed, and increased weight and improv-
ed general vigor are the result. All
beings, except man, are governed by
natural instinct, and every being with
a stomach, except man, eats before
sleep; and even the human iufant.
guided by the same instinct, sucks
day and night, and if its
stomach is empty for any prolonged
period it cries long and loud. Diges-
ton requires no interval of rest, and
If the amount of food during the
twenty-four hours is in quantity and
quality, not beyond the physiological
init, it makes no difference in the
weak and emaciated ones welfare TO
rave a modicum of food in the stom-
lch during the time of sleep, that in

This queer story is told in a book
entitled "My Friend the Boss" A
man was determined to visit the bar
room and his friends would have to
help him home at late hour. His
wife got him to promise to buy all of
his liquor of her and she would get
what he liked. She got old Bourbon,
sour mash and three or four more of
the best Kentucky brands. She
made her parlor into pretty drink
ing-place she got neighbor to teach
her how to mix liquors well, and
made it very pleasant for her husband
and his friends. He liked her shop
better than anybody's. 1t was the
prettiest shop in town. She could
buy at wholesale of the big dealers,
who ride in carriages and have plen-
ty of money. And her husband, in
stead of drinking once day, drank
three times day, and then he drank
five times in day, and the more he
drank the more money she made.
And at last he died in the horrors.
And she saved up money enough, in
the five years she had been. killing

An Indiana Republican discussing

ago said: He did not believe in
sending haysecds to the Legislature

legislature of this stripe does when
he gets to indianapolis" said he,
us to spend a week hunting cheap
clearinghouse. Then he burdens
the record with bills for the destruc-
ton of woodchucks, hawks and owls,
and make speeches in behalf of the
honest farmer, while he pays no atten-
ton to laws for the benefit Of the
great masses in the cities. The honest
farmer in politics makes me very
tired. He is more easier to corrupt
than the average city man who mixes
in politics. | know farmers in South
ern Indiana who pretend to be devo-
ted to their party, who require $50
from the Central Committee for the
Use of their wagons on election day.

mighty tired of seeing them get more
than half of the country offices and a
majority in the Legislature"

To those who smile incredulously at

Franklin and Morse were laughed at !;

his telephone and photograph as toys !;
writ Of lunacy was nearly sworn
out against the late Cyrus w. Field
when he initiated the cable; Napoleon
scoffed at Fulton when the genius of

could get from Calais to Dover with
out sails; and what boy or girl in the
land is unfamiliar with the trials and
heartburnings of him whose achieve

The Strawberry Plants.

If strawberry plants can be set early
in August upon strong land, and well
taken care of, they should make good
growth this fall and be ready to give
a good crop next year, and better
in 1894, while if they are not set until
next spring they will not bear a crop
until 1894, and will need much moro
labor to take care of them, while il not
we'll taken care of after that there will
be but a small crop in 1895, as the
vines and weeds will be too thick on
the ground. Get thrifty plants from
young vines, and be sure to have a
proper proportion of them of stami-
nate or perfect variety.

Burning Of the Air.

A mysterious electric phenomenon
has lately been explained by Prof.
Crookes. When an arc is formed by
an alternating currentFot 10000 to
OO,OO0volts and high frequency, two
steadily burning flames-unlike the
well-known electric brush-stream
out Fl ON the electrodes. The cleo
trodes, however, are not consumed.
The explanation is that the flames are
due to an actual combination of the
nitrogen and oxygen of the air, with
the formation of nitric and nitrous
acids as products. This suggests
startling possibilities, but we are as
sured that the atmosphere is prevented
from taking fire and burning up COM
pletIy, deluging the earth in a sea of
nitric acid, by the fact that the igni-
ting point of nitrogen is higher than
the temDtrpture of its combustion, he
flame heing, therefore, not hot enough
to set fire to the adjoining gas.
