WORKING ON THE PLATFORM.
It's Preparation Left to a subcommit-
tee of Nine.

tee of Nine.
CHICAGO, June %. A. Mt was near
ing midnight before the platform committee
adjourned, and then their labors were far
from complete. The draft of the platform
submitted by G. II. Jones of st. Louis had
twice been taken up section by section in
committee of the whole and amendments
and substitutes for the different parts had
piled up till the council table around which
sat the members Of the committee
was heaped nearly foot high
with manuscript. Half in despair the
committee resigned to a subcommittee Of
nine the task of bringing order out of
chaos. The subcommittee was made up as
follows: Messrs. Jones of Missouri, Villas
of Wisconsin, Daniel of Virginia, Thomp-
son Of California, Russell of Massachusetts,
Patterson Of Colorado, Bayard Of Della
ware, Mcpherson of New Jersey and Sewell
of Maine. The subcommittee was instructed
TO report the result of their midnight labors
to the full committee at 10 o'clock this
morning.
G. H. JONES PREsIDEs.
The protracted sitting, beginning with
the hearing OF the worlds fair delegation
and followed by the advocates of the Mica
ragua canal, was under the craftsmanship
of Mr.. Jones Of st. Louis. Mr.. Jones sue
ceeded Mr. Bayard as the presiding officer
on the suggestion of Mr..
Bayard, himself. 1t was said
that Mr.. Cleveland's ex-Postmaster
General, Don,M. Dickinson of Michigan,
had personally recommended that Mr..
Jones be thus honored, and this, with the
fact that the distinguished Missourial was
known TO have given the subject of the
platform careful study, made the propriety
of his selection clearly apparent.
The interest conferred chiefly In what
would be done as TO silver. Mr..
Dickinson was active in that direction and
intrusted to tho Michigan representative on
the committee a plank which was under
stood TO represent the most liberal ideas that
would be subscribed to by the supporters OF
Mr. Cleveland. 1t favored a bimetallic
standard and opposed any discrimination
in favor of either metal, or placing any
burden upon either. The plank omitted
any mention of free coinage. The silver
caucus men in committee had three
separate planks, varying in their radical
nature, of which they proposed to get into
the platform the strongest the committee
would stand. One was a free coinage plank
out and out. OF this the westerners had
little hope. The other two were substan-
TALLY the same, but one was more conserva-
lively worded than the other. They con-
demued demonstration of silver. and adj
vocated the restoration of the metal to the
place il once occupied.

been unusually heavy. The four men were
Willing away the time playing seven up,
when suddenly loud and continuous rat

found their camp had been invaded by rat
tlesnakes driven to shelter by the rains.
For three hours the four men fought for
their lives. killing snakes by the hundreds
In their efforts to clear the entrance and
effect their escape. Finally they either

bone. She is the daughter of well.to-do Ger

is drawn partly to one side, and below the chin
is a bony projection as hard and sharp as o nail.
The muscles OF her back are so hardened that
she cannot bend backward, while those about
the chest also ossified. In the right arm
both biceps and trceps are affected. The
girls right arm is immovable, while
she has but partial control over the
left The hardening OF the muscles of the
thigh makes 1t impossible for her to bend her
left leg. The muscles of the face are gradu-
ally becc ming bone, limiting to some extent
the motion of the jaws, but Notwithstanding this
fact the girls appetite is good. and she eats as
heartily as if she we're entirely healthy. Miss
Schamback has been subject to acute muscular
pains since she was about years old Her
mother believes that the disease has been grow

alarmed the family occurred six months ago
