 HARRISBURG, Pa., April 13.-As early as 10 o'clock this morning delegates to the democratic state convention began to as- semble in the Harrisburg opera house.

Next came the report of the committee on resolutions. The platform pledges the fealty of the party to the principles first declared by the illustrious founders of the party and exemplifed successively by lief ferson, Jackson, Tilden and Cleveland; declares for economy and local self-g gov ernment, honest money and genuine civil service reform; liberal but not reck- less pensions; and the abatement of useless taxation. It further demands "the reform of the tariff laws, declaring the Mckinley bill ought to be repealed. The platform endorses Gov ernor Pattison. Following is the second plank:
 That consistent with this result and with this demand the sentiment of the Penusyl- vania democracy is overwhelmingly for the renomination to the presidency of the man who gave his party intellectual and politi- cal leadership and the country pure and elevated administration.
 The delegates were directed to act as 6 unite in all matters entrusted to their charge, said delegation to be determined by the vote of the majority.
 Delegates to the national convention and electors were then named.

THE AFTERNOON SESSION.

The convention reassembled at 4:45 o'clock this afternoon, the delay being because of the large amount of work of the committee on credentials. The anti administrationists to the number of four teen finally left the meeting room. This bolt was precipitated by the action of the majority in seating O'Leary of Allegheny as the representative from the Forty sec ond senatorial district over Magistrate Nc Kenns.
 The first business before the convention
 was the hearing of the report of the com
 mittee on credentials. They reported all
 the administration delegates, ignoring the
 claims of the santis" William Foyle, a
 Bradford county delegate, offered minor
 ity report which stated that no statements
 on behalf of the contestants had been al- lowed and therefore declaring the con-
 tested seats vacant The minority report was defeated and the regular re- port adopted. Much bad blood was engendered during the dis
 cussion and when Chairman Miller of the organization committee was reading his report an attempt by several of the sergeants-st-srm to eject couple of dele gates who were protesting too loudly led to fist fight over in one corner in which several blows were struck and much bad language indulged in. At this point Temporary Chairman Beltzhoover relin- q uished the gavel to Senator Ross, the D permanent chairman, and the latter was able to enforce much better order. MT. Ross, when introduced, made an appro- priate address. MT. Ross spoke in his most effective manner. His references to Cleveland and Pattison were received with
 wild demonstration of approval.

ND the black. This dress is in the softest
lavender. 1t is in cashmere-like pattern
cloth, stamped with straight wreaths OF
lilacs. The skirt is cut bias and so the
wreaths run diagonally. There is just train
enough to be dignifed and graceful, with no
dragging of yards for effect The skirt is
cut Princess shape to above the waist line,
where it is finished all the way arouAd by
fold Of lilac ribbons. The short jacket is
of lilac cashmere. The collars are faced
with lilac silk, and vest of softly drawn
white or cream muslin shows. The Jacket
is held in place by cords Of lilac silk, fast
ened by rosettes, which cross over the vest.
The sleeves are of the material of the dress,
and made very full at the shoulder, narrow
ing at the wrist, where they are finished by
a tinv band of muslin like the vest. At the
back the Jacket effect is carried out, only
the Jacket is sewed down to the skirt part,
to avoid the jauntiness that must go with
the Eton style.

Snap shots at Pittsburg Styles.

An odd little toque hat seen in Pitts
burg store yesterday was constructed of
light brown cloth, embroidered with braid
of darker shade. A parrot, in all its
glory of gorgeous plumage, was perched in
the front, giving an Alsatian effect. The
bill (not of the hat-that will be heard from
later) came well over the edge of the toque
in front, and the sharp eyes seemed anxious
for a peep at the fair face of it's purchaser.
1t may be presumed that the milliner shared
the parrots feelings.
This promises to be "green winter" in
Pittsburg, so far as bonnets and gowns are
concerned. Green in all its various shades
will be worn more than for many years
past. There is a sort of scientific reason
given for this. Modistes and milliners say
that, as green gives color, and never takes
it away, it is therefore the most becoming
in cold weather. A very consoling hint
about the fashionable color is that nearly
every woman can wear it unless her COM
plexion is of greenery- -yellowy tendency.
For young lady who is gifted with a
stylish figure and understands the art of
CARRYING herself well, there is no more be-
coming hat this season than the plateau.
As its name indicates, it has a very wide
