is strictly Scotch, and had been en-
ploved for generations by people fond
OF strong speaking, before it crossed
the border, and gave to the youth of
England freshly energetic, if in
elegant word.
think, says Notes and Queries, we
ought to have some reason to congra-
tulate ourselves on the introduction of
the prevailing use of this word, for it
has taken the place of very much
more Objectionable one. Before awful
came ixto use, the ordinary word was
ID. Fifty or sixty years ago it
was used exactly where awful is now,
merely as expressing a superlatige
sense, without any bad meaning at
tached to it. A man might be id
lucky" as we'll as unlucky; and how
ever foolish the present use is. it is a
very great Improvement on its pre-
decessor. | believe the use came part
ly from Sir Walter SCOTS novels.
awful" is a common expression in
Scotland, and was so long before its
adoption into English, though not. l
think, ever used to express anything
pleasant.
One is accustomed to complaints
about the use of intensive adiectives
and adverbs of this kind Perhaps, as
Mr.. Dixon thinks, they deserve the
epithet silly" At all events, they
have been a spontaneous expedient in
all ages. Swift, writing to Stella,
thinks it fitting todescribe the weather
as bloody hot" In Lowland Scots
the words "odious" and "horrid" are
still used in the same way. How is
your mother to day?" "Oh, she's
odious weel, thank you"; or, as | have
often heard, "Shc'S just odious, thank
ye," meaning she is in excellent health.
That's horrid well done" may be uu-
derstood as high encomium.
Awful and awfully, or their equiva-
Tents, used in the sense of very" sex
ceedingly," are more than two centu-
ries old at lest. In Moliere's Les
Precieuses Ridicuies," 1869, Madelon
says, endorsement bien," terrible
ment bon," "une deiicatesse furieuse."

BIG VICTORY FOR GROVER.
Pennsylvania, in Caucus, Decides q
Vote for Him as Unit.

Pennsylvania, in Caucus, Decides to
Vote for Him as a Unit.
CHICAGO, June 2O'-A signal victory
for the Cleveland forces was fought
and won to-day, almost without the
firing of gun. 1t was on the
question of the unit rule
and the battle ground was
the Pennsylvania headquarters. The
talk before the Pennsylvanians went
into the caucus was that strong eff
fort was to be made to break the unit
rule in the keystone State and that
upon the result of the fight in Penn
sylvania would largely hinge the course
to be pursued in other delegations
where similar conditions existed.
I lat the meeting the following resolu-
ton was passed:
Resolved, That the chairman of the
Pennsylvania delegation be instructed
to cast the whole vote of the delegation
of Pennsylvania for Grover Cleveland
as the nominee for President of the
United States until nominated or 9th
erwise instructed.
The vote by which Grover Cleveland
was guaranteed the votes Of Pennsyl-
vadia stood So to 4, the minority con-
sisting of Wallace and Lennihan, and
the Twenty district delegates,
Smoulter and Collins. Mr.. Harrity
was again chosen National committee
man from Pennsylvania by acclama-
ton

Texas Almost a Init.

CHICAGO, June 20.-'Cleveland will
undoubtedly be nominated on the first
ballot, said Ex-Governor J.W. Throck-
morton of the Lone Star State, as he
mentally polled the list of thirty dele
gates mo use trying to make the
delegation appear solid for Cleveland
just now. but he will have all but three
votes German, Hill and Flower will
will each get vote, but if anything
should happen to sidetrack Cleveland
there is no telling where our strength
would go. We would hold a FIVE min
ute conference and it is not unlikely
that there would be an equal division
in favor of Hill and German"

THE NOMINATING SPEECHES.
Considerable Gossip as to Who VIII
Make Them.

Considerable Gossip as to Who VIII
Make Them.
There was much gossip this morning
about the nominating speeches. 1t is
proba BILE that only four names will be
formally presented to the convention
Cleveland, Hill, Gray and Boies.
The Cleveland men have not yet
agreed who shall present the ex-Presi-
dents name, but will probably select
Congressman w. G. P. Breckenridge of
Kentucky to perform this high Office.
Gov. Boies' name will be presented by
the Hon. John T. Duncombe of Fort
Dodge, Iowa, and may be seconded by
Representative Bryan of Nebraska, the
brilliant young tariff orator of the
House.
Ex-Gov. Gray will be placed in nom
inatiOn by Senator Voorhees, of Indi-
ana, who placed him in nomination for
Vice President before the St. Louis
convention four years ago.
Congressman John R. Fellows of New
York will probably put Hill in nomi-
nation. He is Tammany's star orator.
Amember of the Kentucky delegation
said that it had not yet been decided
to place Senator Carlisles name
formally before the convention. Sena
or Germans name will not be formally
presented by Maryland nor will Nor
rison of Illinois be formally put in
nomination.

Hoosier Delegates See That Their Bes

Hoosier Delegates See That Their Best
Plan Is to Vote for Cleveland.
CHICAGO. June 2O.-If Senator Voor-
hees has decided in his heart not to
present the name of Isaac p. Gray to
the convention, his resolution has not
been promulgated among the dele
gates At the hoosier headquarters
the delegates who walked the floor
unused on the possibility of beating
Cleveland. ''Our Gray doer not appear
to be in it, so why not obey the in
structions we received" asked Judge
G. r. Pollard, delegate from the Tenth
district. sit now looks as if Cleveland
would get me nomination or the first
ballot. We firmly believe, however,
that there will be no harm done in
presenting Gray's name. If there
hadn't been such a landslide to CleXe-
lands camp, we might have entered
into the fight for Gray with more
spirit
Delegate R. c. Houston of Bedford
talked about the seventeen prodigal
votes in his delegation and then re-
marked that those Gray men would
soon swing into line for Cleveland. 81
have no idea that Voorhees, will fail to
put our favorite son into nominal
ton, but what earthly good can
1t do now? Suppose we continued to
PUNK the unit vote for Gray? Our
only satisfaction would be the sight of
the other and more sagacious delegates
passing by holding on like death to
the Cleveland band wagon. Mr.. Gray
will be placed in nomination, but in
my opinion the roll-call for Cleveland
will have practically settled the mat
ter by the time Texas is reached"

Big Diamond, Whale and Rope.

The largest cut diamond in the world,
that named the Imperial by the prince
of Wales, was discovered in the south
African mines in 1885. In its present
shape it weighs 1s5 carats and is valued
at II, 000. 900 francs.
The largest whale ever captured
was run down by the New London
Conn., whaler Lizzie Simmons, in 1884.
It was captured in the Cumberland in
let, and yielded 16S barrels of oil and
$50 pounds of whalebone.
A wire rope has been manufactured
at Cardiff, Wales, which is believed to
be the longest and largest IN the world.
It is 2,400 fathoms in length, which
would make it miles and 108 yards
long, taking our measurement as the
standard

Campbell All Right for Chairman.

CHICAGO, June 2O.-When it was an
nounced that Ex-Governor James E.
Campbell had been tempted with the
place of permanent chairman of the
convention, but that the offer carried
with it demand upon him to smother
his presidential bee, all was excitement
in several delegations, but the Buckeye
delegates quietly tucked themselves
away in their beds and slept on undis-
turbed Delegate Fred w. LIE Sueur. a
personal friend of Campbell, voiced the
sentiment of all the Ohio delegates
present when he Remarked: THAT is
nonsense. Jim never had any idea of
chasing the presidential bee. He is too
good man to allow political triclssters
to make a monkey of him, and the
beauty of it is he knows enough to
keep out of the manipulators way. He
does not, want the second place on the
ticket, either, and l think we know
where we stand when we declare that
he is the right man for the rbairmrp
of the convention.

o'clock this afternoon Emil West, aged
forty, entered the store of Miss Hattie
Buttress, at 223 Beaver avenue,
Allegheny, and shot her dead.
He turned the revolver
upon himself and fired, the bullet
crashing through his head, killing him
instantly. Both parties were hair
dressers, and had been lovers, it is said,
living together in Altoona, Pa. No
particulars as to the cause of the
tragedy are known.
