MISS mouNrroRp,s LECTURES.

The Opening Entertainment Yester- |
day Afternoon at the Hyperion-A
Charming and Delightful Lecture |
Throughout.
The opening lecture at the Hyperion
yesterday afternoon by Mrs. Aountford,
on the CLONES and Haunts of Jesus" for
the benefit of Grace hospital was greeted
by large and refined audience. This
lecture was attended by the most charm
ing spectacular effects, produced by the
fabrics and costumes of the orient. The
fabrics of silk interviewer with gold and
silver, the wonderful needlework, the
gorgeous oolors of the east combined to
make one striking and harmonious medley
of color. Mrs. Mountford was dressed in
costume appropriate to the occasion. She
spoke concerning the people of the lower
class, the peasant and shepherd, and illus
trated by bringing forward about dozen
persons in costume, of whom there were
about twenty on the stage.
Five young men and as many ladies were
dressed in the rich fabrics which were
brought from the east.
Mrs. Mountford showed fac-simile of
| the seamless coat which Jesus Christ wore
/ and which the Roman soldiers threw dice
| for; also a coat similar to the coat of many
colors given to Joseph by his father. She
described in very graphic manner the
life and custom of the Jews, and also
showed how baby was swaddled and
wrapped and wrapped until the top of it's
head was the only part visible; and showed
how the infant was slung on the back of
L Sfcr he oh ole hnr he
sick man healed by Jesus was let down
through the roof into the place
where Jesus was. ALL this was Illus.
trated by the figures in costume, and
dramatic effect was often aided by Mrs.
Mountford's own efforts and vivid deserip-
ton, which were often powerful and
graphic. She Is q fascinating and very
gifted speaker and interests all. Mrs.
Mountford will lecture this evening on the
"Bedouins of the Desert" A genuine
Bedouin tent will be located on the plat
costume. The wedding garments worn by
eastern brides will be used by the lecturer
in to-night's entertainment. The orna
ments and jewelry of the East, the dances
and revelry, the tent life and the wild and
romantic life of the Bedouins of the pres
emit will constitute to-nights entertain
| ment.
Mrs. Mountford speaks English with (
charming accent and fuency and has beer
the favorite of English audiences. Scores
of nights it has not been possible for tn
halls where her dramatic lectures hav'
been given to accommodate the eager ant
expectant assemblages that have gatheret
to hear her and witness the brilliant scene
of the eastern land. Thirty nights in sue
cession was the rule in each city in tn
, l Co $ha doi
, at Asbury:
give thousand people greeted Miss Vol
Finkelstein at the Auditorium with the ga
laam of waving handkerchiefs. The illus
. trations of the manners and customs of thi
wild oriental life were exceedingly inter
esting and instructive, while the lectur
itself was scholarly production"

The board of finance held another star
chamber session in the city hall last even
ing for the purpose of bringing the appro-
priations for the coming year somewhere
within the amount which the city will re-
ceive from the tax list. A vast deal of
cutting was done on the estimates of the
various departments, but it was found
when all was over that the amount asked
was still greatly in excess of the amount
which would be received and another
meeting of the board will be held to take
final action on the matter.

was aware what had been done the delsga-
tion presented the name of Horatio Sey-
mour. Such cry went up as is only heard
in great convention hall The New York
members were tor moment or two stupe-
fed seemingly, and the Ohio delegates, see
ing their advantage, raised still louder the
cry of Seymour Seymourp'
Seymour himself was strange, almost
pitiable object to look upon. He seemed
dumfounded, bewildered, and he shook his
head with undigni6ed and deprecatory ges-
ture. He arose trembling, and in q falter-
ing voice, raising his hand with something
like piteous appeal, he said, 'sYour candi-
date cannot be-" and then left the plat
form. If it were acting it was superb. If
it were stimulation of surprise it was mag
ni6cent. To this refusal the Ohio delega-
tion paid no heed and persisted. Other
delegates took up the cry, and New York
looked on, perceiving that that thing most
to be dreaded in q conventions stampede
was inevitable.
Then some of the New York delegates
cheered for Seymour, and speedily it was
evident that Ohio had fanked New York
and had forced q candidate upon the State.
Seymour himself was appealed to. He was
told that the convention had with unanim-
ity pronounced for him, aud with something
that suggested abjectness he bowed his head
and submitted. New York had not chosen
Chase; Ohio had not won with Pendleton,
but the honors In the political game were
even.

Er-SecretG y WhifneM. to nominate Tildeu
on this issue. Not to do that would be to
suggest that there had been insincerity in
this plant and charge of fraud extending
through four years
The convention was called to meet In Gin
cinnati on the END Of June, and within q
week or ten days of the meeting it Is sup
posed that the body would simply place in
nomination the ticket 1876, reafirm the
platform Of that year, with an added plank
renouncing the alleged wrong of 1876. Til
den, however, had written letter in which
he declined to become candidate. This
was due partly to his health, partly to some
feeling that he had not been treated with
entire justice by some of the Democratic
leaders The letter was committed to Will
lam c. Whitney, but it was the intention
of majority of the New York delegation
to secure the nomination of Tilden in order
that the record of the party might be con-
sistent, and then, having nominated him, if
he chose to decline on the score of ill health,
1t would be for the convention to say what
action should be taken.
There has alwas been suspicion that MI.
Whitney was filled with greater desire to
secure the nomination of his father-in-law,
Henry D. Payne, than to secure for Mr..
Tilden such Endorsement as nomination,
even II declined, would give. Mr.. Whitney's
friends say this does him injustice, but the
charge is made that he mismanaged, pro-
duced Mr.. Tilden's letter at an inopportune
moment, and thereby compelled the New
York delegation to abandon Tilden a. a
candidate. At all events, the convention
was somewhat at sea after learning that
Tilden would decline. Bayard was brought
forward by an influential element, and so
was Judge Thurman. William r. Nor
rison, as tariff reform candidate, was sup
ported, but the bent Of the convention,
through political manipulation which has
never been fully understood, seemed to be
for Hancock. He received III votes on the
first ballot; Bayard, 1881; Payne, 81; Thur
man, 6S; Justice Field, 65; Morrison, 62;
Hendricks, 4911; Tilden, 38.
New York seeing that PAYNE could not
be nominated tried to combine on Randall,
but it did 80 too late. The combination
had been made for Hancock, and upon the
second ballot there was a stampede, which
gave Hancock ultimately every vote of the
convention but 80, and with William L.
English, of Indiana, as candidate for Vice
President. The platform called for tariff
for revenue only. and on that platform
Hancock was defeated.

CHAPTER VII.
PRIVATE DARE.

'sDoes she care for Sir James, do you
think?" asked Colonel Clyde, turning
round in his chair and facing his wife,
for he was sitting at his writing-table when
his wife entered the library.
''She always seemed to like him." an
svered Mrs Clyde.
"But that other miserable afair-can she
be thinking of that?"
.But she accepted Sir James knowing
all that, and as the unfortunate man has
been dead eighteen months, there can be
nothing new in the idea" :"
Sand nothing further was ever heard
about it, I suppose, or we should have
heard from Joan or Conray?"
sJoan never mentions it, for naturally 1t
is a painful subject; and as for Miriam I
believed she had entirely forgotten 1t, for I
have never heard her mention young Con-
rays name"
'It was q remarkable affair"
eyes, and an affair I should not like to
reach Sir James ears. That is one reason
am so anxious not to have the marriage de-
layed; and told Miriam this, but she only
became greatly excited, and persisted in
her refusal not to be married in q month"
'sWell, let few days pass quietly over,
and then we can see what is to be done.
You are quite sure that Sir james is anxious
for the marriage?"
'I am perfectly sure; he is devoted to
her, and it is Miriam alone that is to blame
for causing the delay"
Sand you think that had better speak
to her about it?"
eyes, you may have more influence, more
authority than have; Miriam never dis
obeyed me before, but surely she will not
disobey her father"
"We can try, at all events" said Colonel
Clyde, gravely. 81 agree with you; to
delay the marriage under the circumstances
is madness. Shall go and speak to her
now?'
eyes, do; fancy how disagreeable it would
be to have to write to the Conrays to tell
