Personally, the CoUR1ER-DEMo-
Graf has nothing against Mr..
Hodgins, but we do think he is i'm
posing upon the good nature of the
people too much in again nominating
himself for Office. The people have
time and again declared that they do
not want his services as public
officer, but at every election, with
one exception-when the Bank Of
Langdon had him under control-he
has serenely bobbed up for Office,
only to receive an emphatic refusal
of endorsement at the polls. An
ordinary man would, to use a slang
phrase, "take tumble to HIMSELF
and quit. But not so with Hodgins.
Now that the Bank no longer re-
quires his services, and the Langdon
postotfice is a hopeless case, he once
more begs for a little public pap
and, in case of refusal, must needs
rustic, or emigrate. In the cam
paign of 1886, when Mr.. Hodgins,
Mr.. ALERT and A. c.. Irelan were the
candidates, and there was a chance
to be elected, after making a two
months canvass Mr.. Hodgins sold
out to one of the opposition candi-
dates, Mr.. A. G. Irelan, for a note
of fifty dollars. Not very high
price for man who has aspirations
for the responsible position of Sup
erintendent of schools for Cavalier
county.

The wheat gamblers are running
down the price Of wheat to make
the farmer believe that the Anti
option bill is inimical to his inter-
ests. A pretty state of affairs when
the word of few gamblers is suffi-
cient to depress the markets at will.

DEMOCRAT Harrison received the
nomination at the Minneapolis con-
vention. The rank and file of the
republicans were for Blaine, but
Harrison had the delegates and in
conventions delegates count. Dem
ocrats are satisfied. The republican
ship of state, already overloaded by
such fanatical stevedores as McKin-
ley and Lodge, is without ballast
and unable to gain an offing is being
irresistably swept among the break

oughly aroused public sentiment,

A BRISK ARGUMENT.
A Sensational Report Made in the
Episcopal Conference.
THE TRIAL OF CLERGYMEN,
Rev. DIR. w. II. Huntington OF New York
stirs Up Quite Hornets Nest In the
Baltimore Episcopal. which Quieted
Down When Report Was Withdrawn.

| BALTIMORE, Nd, Oct. 1s.-At the tri-
ennial general conference OF the Protest
ant Episcopal Church Bishop Coleman of
Mississippi, conducted the opening relig-
ious exercises and the two houses prompt
ly went into session. President Dix OF
the House OF Deputies, after the reading
OF the minutes OF Saturdays session by
Secretary Hutchins, called for reports Of
standing comm mlttees.
Rev. DR.. w. r. Huntingdon, for the COM
mittee on constitutional amendments,
presented a report which made a sensa-
tion. He prefaced the report with the
statement that "it Is always an ungra-
cious thing TO employ the reductio ad
absurdum In argument, but this commit
tee Is obliged to do so by the logic OF
facts"
DR.. Huntingdon then read a report
asking that the committee be allowed to
return TO the house the resolution of Mr..
Nash OF New York, amend.n article @
With respect to the trial OF clergymen,
the resolutions OF the last convention to
amend articles and 9, and other matters
involv ing grave consideration, and request
ed that the COMMITTEES be discharged from
considering all resolutions anne ding the
constitution, as under recent action OF
the mouse all such reports from TINS COM
mittee are referred to joint com miss ion
and that the committee be discharged
from further service during the remain
der of the session.
Finally, after a long debate, DIR. Hunt
ingdon was given leave to withdraw his
report.
The joint committee to select the place
for holding the convention OF 1895, re-
ported that IL had fixed on Saratoga, N.
Y. Objection was made by several dep
uties TO presentation of Saratogas
claims, and the report was placed on the
calendar.
After the reading of a number of mes
sagos from the House of Bishops, the
special order OF the day, the report OF the
commission on the hymnal, was taken
up.
Rev. DIR. Henry w. Nelson OF western
New York, presented voluminous re-
port. He pleaded that the action of the
committee be ratified by the House with
out going into committee OF tho whole.
Then came a discussion on the hymnal,
omissions and additions being proposed
and motions made in inextricable con-
fusion. The House of Bishops adopted
the committees report with some few
changes and sent their resolution 70 the
deputies. The deputies finally concurred
with the bishops.
The messages received from the House
OF Bishops concurred in the division OF
the dioceses OF Florida and Michigan.

nell, who represents Mr.. Chace, stated
that be had received letter last week
from his client, who is in London, and he
wanted the case adjourned until next
month. Assistant United States District
Attorney Maxwell Evarts strenuously
opposed the motion and asked that tho
case be set for Oct. ~. "But / cannot get
letter TO my client by that time, much
less get him here" argued the lawyer.
"You can telegraph him." interrupted
Judge Benedict. Judge Benedict then
set the case for October 81 when Chace
must be on hand. The opium Chace was
charged with smuggling was sold at pub
lie auction month ago. The case has
been dragging along since November and
the whereabouts OF Chace was learned for
the first tims yesterday.

The Freshmen Were Defeated.

The Brown Freshman eleven went to
Fall River yesterday TO play high scnool
team of that city. The Brown boys were
weakened by the loss of Call at Center.
The game as whole was interesting,
although at times the Freshman team
seemed TO go 90 pieces.
The Fall River team have had much
more practice than the Freshmen and
naturally played together better than
their opponents, but could not have
won the game with an impartial referee
In the first half Mathewson and Stafford
each scored "A touch down for the Fall
Rivers while Green scored for the
Freshmen.
In the second half Connolly made "A
touchdown for the Freshmen after max
ing fine run, and Green kicked a goal.
ScoN: B. f., 10; II. r., S. This should
have ended the scoring. but the Fall
Rivers obtained another touchdown aud
goal through several very questionable
decisions by Referee Waring.
The features of the game were the
rushing and tackling by Connolly for the
Is. f., and the work OF Mathewson, Davis
AMI Swift.

Boston and Cleveland Open the Final
Struggle.
IT WAS GREEK AND GREEK.
Eleven Innings Played, Neither Side
scored and the Game Was Called
Account of Darkness-Freshmen De-
feated by the Fall River High school.

CLEVELAND, o., Oct. 1s.-six thousand
enthusiastic lovers OF base ball hustled
out to League Park yesterday to see the
opening game OF the closing champion
snip series between Boston and Cleve-
land. The game began at 3 O'Clock and
ended at 8, when IL had become too dark
TO see the ball. Eleven innings had BEEN
played, and twenty-five big round goose
eggs had been painted with whitewash
on the score board at the end OF the field.
IL was a pitchers battle throughout.
Young, for the home team, was in splen-
did form, and six little singles were ali he
gave the visitors, while Stivetts was less
liberal IN that respect and more generous
with bases on balls. But fourteen men
reached first base in the eleven innings,
and only two OF the Bostons got as far as
third base.
Cleveland did little better, Burkett
hearly reaching the plate in the ninth
inning. While the pitchers did splen-
did work, their support was almost per-
fect, the only error OF the game being q
wild throw by Zlmmer to catch a runner
NJ second, but IL amounted 10 nothing.
The game was the most brilliant exhi-
bition OF scientific bail playing seen on
the homs grounds this season and the
crowd howled itself hoarse as one fine
play followed another in quick success
sion. Cleveland was counted almost a
sure winner with Stivetts in the box for
Boston, and there is much disappoint-
ment at the result of the game.
Clarkson and Staley will be the pitch
ers In today's game and there is appre-
hension that Boston will score a victory.
because his old associates have been able
ON several occasions TO solve Clarkson's
curves, while Staley has been puzzle to
tho Clevelands. The score of yesterdays

Catch the Moments Eve.

Chicago Post
The principles of evolution penetrate
to all branches of society. Recently L
was talking with Chicago merchant
on the subject of advertising. and he
expressed some views on this topic that
nave an interest for newspaper readers
and advertisers. Said he:
The smart retail merchant of this
epoch frames his advertisements in the
newspapers to catch the eyes of the
women. 1t is astonishing how mnch
interest the women take in the adj
vertiscments, especially in the Sun
day newspapers. They look for
the, announcement of fresh goods
ana good BARGAINS quite as eagerly is
tney read the society news or the news
matter proper. And if you will study
the situation carefully you will notice
that on Monday morning there is rush
Ior the bargain counters that you will
IND on no other day in the week,
All this Is the result of the evolution
that is quietly but surely going on
among the gentier sex. Women are
greater newspaper readers than ever
Defore, and the well-arranged display
advertisement catches their eye because
they are also thorough newspaper read
erS. The average business man is a
SKINNER over the. news unless he
Is interested in some special de-
partment of the paper TO which he gives
careful attention, but if he is not inter-
eSted In some feature, you may be sure
that he only glanees over it. On the
contrary, the woman first concentrates
her attention on that phase which is
most attractive to her, and if she reads
anything in the way of new goods
or new bargains in any line of
domestic economy, she is sure to make
note OF it in her mind, and generally
does not fail to improve her opportu-
nity." These observations go far to-
ward establishing the truth of the dea l.
er's assertion that the wise merchant in
these times will not fail to attract the
eyes of the feminine sex.
