Chapel Services.

The chapel never looked. more agreeable than
on last Sunday morning. The frescoers had
wrought a pleasant change. 1t may seem out Of
place to speak of cleaning and painting in con-
nection with divine service, but whatever adds
to the atractiveness of the service adds to its ef
fectveness. An unusual large number of ladies
and gentlemen occupied chairs in the visitors
corner. The platform was not wanting in force of
speakers, there being besides Chaplain Albert

the structure which was built to seat ~,
600. The air wasealmost upbearable and
the delegates perspired as though in an
oven. At noon heavy clouds began to
gather and a shower was promised.
At 1885 the delegates had about all
taken their seats. AT that hour heavy
rainstorm was setting in, with thunder
and sharp. lightning, and the roof Of the
Wigwam began TO leak. Some of the spec
tators in the gallery raised umbrellas.
As each OF the prominent Democrats
entered the wigwam there was tremend
Gus cheering. When Coy. Flower ap-
peared at the head OF the New York State
delegation he received a tremendous
ovation from all parts or the big structure.
Heavy thunder accompanied the storm
which broke over the city, and many Of
the delegates were evidently alarmed.
Gov. Boies was warmly received when he
entered soon after 1920, and at 1920 when
Chairman Brice took his place on the
platform the applause was the loudest Of
the day.
The chairman was busily engaged ar
ranging his papers for few minutes. At
1874 the Michigan delegation with Don
Dickinson leading entered the hall.
At 12:45 Chairman Brice raped for
order and when quiet had been secured
he introduced the Rev. John Rouse. who
offered prayer.
Mr.. Rouse prayed about four minutes
concluding with the Lords prayer. AT
man Brice instructed the secretary to read
the names of the temporary officers.
He then announced William &. Owens
of Kentucky as temporary chairman. At
1880 committee was appointed TO escort
Chairman Owens to the plotform.
Chairman Brice surrendered the Ravel
at 1889 and a minute later Owens began
his speech.
After thanking the convention for the
great honor done him, he said that two
great dangers fated the Democratic
party: one was external and the other in
ternal. The first was the organized capital
of the country as represented by the gov
ernment, ana the second the tendency of
the Democratic party to raise issues
among themselves.
Owens made verv favorable impress
sion with all the delegates He was ap-
parsntly about As years and was dressed
in black cutaway coat.

ONE OF HUMANITY's SORROWS.
Two Little Children Taken Away from
Drunken Parents.

Two bright-faced little children were
the centre of attraction In this noon's
session Of the Municipal Court, and their
sad little faces touched the hearts of more
than one Of the spectators. They were
Matthew and Mary Wynn, aged
and 2 years respectively. The case
was one in which the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Children petitioned for the care of the
children. The parents, Matthew and
Anne Wynn, were present and fought the
case vigorously. but without avail. The
charges against the parents were OF con-
tinual drunkenness and the leaving of
the children alone In the house for hours
at time, and also neglecting their care.
The society was eventually given charge
of the little ones, and they departed
smiling.
