SECOND DAY.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, June 9.-Three minutes
before the hour of opening the second session
Of the republican national convention Q1 a. M
Gov. Mckinley, the chairman-elect, walked
down the main aisle to an accompaniment OF
cheers. He bore no roll of manuscript, and it
was evident that he had prepared no set speech.
1t was l43 when Chairman Fassett raped the
convention TO order. Rt Rev. H. B. Whipple
episcopal bishop of Minnesota, who had been
sitting to the lett Of the chair with head pro-
tected by little purple skull cap, removed that
covering and opened the proceedings with
prayer, the delegates and most Of the audience
standing the while.
Mr.. Webster of Nebraska, asked permission
that Mr.. Walker, of Nebraska, be given the
floor to present gavel to the convention. The
chairman announced that Mr. Walker would
have the floor for that purpose Mr.
Walker then took the platform and
made little speech in so low tone
that there were cries of "Louder!" from all
parts of the hall. The gavel was presented in
the names of the young republicans of Ne
braska in memory of the homestead act. Mr.
Walker described the wood of which the gavel
made and said that there were two silver
coins in the end of it. Mr.. Fassett returned the
thanks Of the convention
The temporary chairman announced the
order of business to be the presentation of the
credentials committee report. Mr. Cogswell,
chairman of that committee, took the floor and
said that the committee was not ready to re-
port. He asked permission for the committee
to sit continuously until it had completed it's
labors, saying that if the committee is attended
by reasonable success it cannot report before
Thursday. Leave to sit continuously was
granted.
Mr Cogswell ahd Mr.. Spooner having taken
their seats, the chairman announced that the
report of the committee on permanent
organization was next in order. D. G..
Lockwood of Idaho, chairman of the COM
mittee, was recognized and took the plat
form He presented the name Of William
Mckinley, of Ohio, for permanent chair
man 1t was received with tumultuous applause.
Charles w. johnson was named for secretary

Henry Burleigh, looked uncertain He evil
IDENTIFY did not know whether he was to take the
initiative or whether he was to be escorted to
the platform by committee, as he was at
Rochester in September last. Mr.. Clarkson
nodded to him and Mr.. Fassett, unescorted, left
his seat and started for the platform AS he
stepped forward he was greeted with perfect
storm of applause.
Upon taking the chair Mr.. Fassett began his
address with complimentary references to the
convention whose duty it was, he said, Ito
formulate, for the inspection of the people, the
beliefs and purposes of the party relative to
the living political questions of national
Importance and to choose that man for leader
under whose guidance we feel we shall be most
sure Of establishing those beliefs in the form of
law" Continuing the speaker said:
1--WE are here not as warning factions, strug
Cling to win currency under favorite leaders.
but as comembers of one great party, looking to
select from the shining roll of our
honored great men that type of states

freside, the American family, the American
girl, and the American boy, and their
highest possibilities of American citizen
ship. [Applause.] We propose to raise our
money to pay public expenses by taxing
the products of other nations, rather than by
taxing the products Of our own. Applause
The democratic party believes IN direct taxa
ton; that is, taxing ourselves. We don't be-
lieve in that principle, so long as we can find
anybody else to tax. Laughter and ap-
plause.] The protective tariff not only
does everything which revenue tariff can do
in raising all needed revenues, but a pro-
tective tariff does more than that. A protective
tariff encourages and stimulates American in
dustries and gives the widest possibilities to
American genius and American effort. Ap-
pause Does anybody know what tariff reform
means? [Cries of No, no.''l And yet that is to
be the platform of our political opponents this
year. What does it mean? You can
study Mr.. Clevelands utterances, from the
first one he made in New York, when he said
he didn't know anything about the tariff, until
his last one in Rhode Island, and you go away
ignorant and uniformed as to what tariff re-
form means

tariff reform bills proposed by the democratic

It stopped the Painting.

A story of "fainting beauties" is told in the memoirs of the Rev. Julian Young, subchaplain of Hampton Court palace. One very hot Sunday young lady, not a resident of the palace, but living in the vicinity, tainted in the chapel dur ing the service. Sir Horace Seymour, widower, a Waterloo hero, of com manding presence and strikingly good looks, raised the prostrate lady in his arms, carried her to his apartments, de- posted her on sofa, left her to the charge of his housekeeper and returned to his seat. Strange to say, on the fol- lowing Sundays young lady. each time a different one, tainted; and on each occasion the same gallant knight performed the same kind office for the sufferer and then returned to his post.
 On the last of these three fainting Sundays Lady Seymour, the aunt of Sir Horace, said to the chaplain after serv- ice: "I say, Mir. Young, this fashion of fainting will degenerate into an cpl demic if it is not put stop to. With your permission, will affix before next Sunday this notice in the cloister, at the door of entrance: Whereas, a tendency to faint is becoming a prevalent infrm- ity among young ladies frequenting this chapel, notice is hereby given that, for the future, ladies so affected will not be carried out by Sir Horace Seymour, but by Branscombe, the dustman. This warning produced the desired effect, and the plague of fainting beauties was staid.

The Married BeIle,s Influence.

A woman who has great influence over young men is the young married woman who has been a belle among them and who still has them calling at her home. She is the one who knows what they really are, and if she is good woman she can do wonderful amount of good to these young men who admire her and prize her friendship, knowing they cannot keep it unless worthy of it.
 Her happiness and her husbands prove the best of object lessons. And what sweet praise it is to her to hear that one of these young men has remarked, "Mrs. Youngwife is a superb woman, she keeps us straight and does us ever so much good" It is the sweetest bit of compliment woman could desire; just as it is the keenest anguish to know that some one we love has done wrong for our sake; or that we have led him to wrongdoing. And from that, dear women, let us all pray to be saved Philadelphia Music and Drama.
