NIGHT SESSION.

On reassembling the convention
took up the paper matter again. The
discussion lasted until eleven o'clock,
when r. II. Kelley introduced the
following resolutions as substitute for
the whole:
Resolved, That the past course pur-
sued by THE SOUTHERN ALLIANCE
FARMER be endors ID by the State AL
lance, and that we earnestly request
it's editor to advocate the principles
and purposes for which the Alliance
was organized, and let the paper be
truly an educator of the people as out
lined by the ritual and constitution in
non-partisan spirit: Provided that
nothing in said resolution shall be an
endorsement of any political party, but
of the principles of this order as advo-
Gated in the said paper.
This resolution was introduced by a
strong reformer. After the full dis
cusson Of the question, the original
resolution would have passed by three
to one, but Editor Irwin at the critical
moment stepped forward and asked
his friends to support the substitute
which fully indicated his editorial
conduct of the official organ. This
action on the part of Editor Irwin
Gained the convention and all was
harmony afterwards. The original
resolutions were withdrawn when IT.
win accepted the substitute. The res
olution was ordered printed in THE
SOUTHERN ALLIANCE FARMER.
The convention then adjourned TO
meet next morning at 8 o'clock in the
court house which had been rendered
by the sheriff of Hall county.
SECOND DAY.
The convention met according to
adjournment and was opened by
prayer.
Minutes of previous day read and
approved.
The hour having arrived for the an
nual election of officers, Rev. J. w.
Mccarthy put in nomination Hon. G.
H. Ellington, of McDufie, for presi-
dent. He was elected by reclamation
as president.
Hon. W. E. H. Searcy was elected
vice president of the State Alliance
for the ensuing year.

The Ventura Cali Unit Of Angus

The Ventura (Cal.) Unit Of August
10th says:
The Democratic central committee
Of Los Angeles county appointed a
sub committee of nine to wait upon
the Peoples Party convention which
met in Los Angeles last Saturday
and confer with that body in regard
to fusion on the local ticket. The
convention had no proposition
to offer and the committee retired
without getting any encouragement.
1t seems difficult to make the old par
ties understand that fusion is impos-
sible. Our contest is not a mere
scramble for offices. There are prin-
ciples involved which would be sac
rifced by combination with either
Republicans or Democrats, and in
forming such alliances we should de-
grade our party to the level of pol
itical tricksters whose only idea is to
capture the offices. Let us keep in
the middle of the road and maintain
our self respect. Success will come
in good time, and success by any
other road would be valueless.

How does that strike you? It can

Money is not property, neither is

Money is anything that will extin-

counted out big roll of bills and thrusting
them into Mr.. Hollands hand, exclaimed

something on which he paid 25 cents at the

his safe and change bill. The fellow, who
was undoubtedly an expert safe robber

and was ready for business About O'Clock

GHOSTS IN a CHURCH.
The Organ Plays at Midnight, But No
body Can Be Found.

The Organ Plays at Midnight, But No
body Can Be Found.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Dec. 1S.-St. Paups
church, the grandest house of worship In
Milwaukee, is inhabited by ghosts, at least
such is the theory Of police officials, based
on developments for which they say there
can be no other explanation. Several times
during the last two weeks the people living
in the vicinity Of Marshall and Knapp
streets have been awakened about midnight
by the grand strains Of the church organ,
while the church at the same hour was in
darkness. Shortly before midnight last
night the people were awakened by the
playing Of the organ. United States Court
Commissioner Bloodgood, who lives oppo-
site the church, telephoned the Rev. Charles
Stanley OF the strange occurrence then go
ing on, and the latter summoned the
police. A detail of ten policemen,
with the minister and a number of the
neiRhbors, surrounded the church at /
o'clock this morning determined on captur-
ing the man who dare play a church organ
at midnight. The organ had stopped play
ing just before the arrival Of the police. A
guard was placed at every window and
door, while a detail OF police entered the
church, led by the Rev. Mr.. Lester. The
gas was lighted and then began the search.
1t was thorough, but strange TO say, from
cellar to attic no one was found. Stranger
still, not door nor window was found
open through which any one could have
entered or escaped. While the search was
being made Mr.. Roberts, an organ maker
and an expert, was sent for. He arrived
just as the search was finished. he made
an examination OF the organ and said there
was no doubt that the organ had been
played on within two hours. This he knew
from the sweaty condition in which he
found the organ pipes. 1t was but corrob-
GRAFTON Of what the neighbors knew was a
fact. Everybody was dumbfounded and
no one had theory except the police, who
are confident that the church is haunted,
and that the ghosts play the organ at mid
night.

SoME CURIOUS LETTERS passed between Gar
rick and man named Stone, says Chambers
Journal. The latter was employed to get re-
cruits for the low parts of the drama, and one
night he wrote to Garrick: Sir: The Bishop OF
Winchester is getting drunk at the Bear and
swears he will not play tonight" At first
sight this seems peculiar conduct for a bishop,
but it should be explained that the communica-
tion only refers to the man engaged to take that
character in the play of "Henry VIII" ON
another occasion Garrick wrote TO Stone: III
