THE AGE or PAPER.


The 1ime Is Coming When Paper win
BE the Only Useful Thing.
The world has seen its iron age and it's
brazen age, but this is the age Of paper.

and sit on paper cushions In paper cars

Bergen, Norway, we could go on Sum
days to a paper church.
We do paper business over paper
counters, buying paper goods, paying for
them with paper money, and deal In
paper stocks on paper margins. We row
races in. paper boats for paper prizes.
We go to paper theaters where paper
actors play to paper audiences
As the age develops the coming man

cry and it's practical use.
Nitroglycerin is the force of all high
explosives, Dynamite Is the name most
usually given to these explosives, though
other names are sometimes used.
Dynamite is simply nitroglycerin
mixed with various ingredients. Nitro
glycerfh is made by mixing sulphuric
and nitric acid with sweet giycerin,
the same that is used by the ladies to
prevent chapped hands. Mixing the
acids and glycerin Is where the great
danger lies in the making n Iiitro-
glycerin. The mixing tank, or agita-
tor, as it is called by dynamite makers,
is large steel tank, hlled Inside with
many coils OF lead pipe, through whicb,
while the mixing 10 Id prowress, ~ con-

This flow of Ice water "a used to Keep

would explode, and hole in the
ground would mark where the factory
had been. The nitroslyoarin is stored
in large earthenware tanks, which are
usually sunk in the ground to guard
against blows or severe ooncussion.
The other ingredients for making
dynamite are, nitrate Of soda (Which Is
| found only in Chilli, carbonate of mag
nesia and wood pulp.
Dynamite is put In paper shells usually
III inches in diameter and 8 inches In
length. and weighs about one-halt pound
to each shell or cartridge. It has largely
taken the place Of black powder for
blasting, rs 1t is many hundreds Of times
stronger, and consequently more eco.

kinds of ores, coal and rock, and Sub
marine blasting and railfsad building.

Dynamite will not explode from an.

TIE WAVES DEATH.

Is 1t dream of some sweet unknown land.
That thrills the Trembling wave far out at seal
What strange, Wild longing draws resistlassly
The eager waters to an unknown strand2
Unhindered by the tempest's mighty hand.
From lure of sunny skies and soft winds free,
They hurry on in passionate ecstasy,
And, breaking, die uposthe faithless sand.
Q, restless soul, whose every yearning breath
Ia full Of vague desires and sweet, dim dreams,
Across thy far &rizon glows and CLEANS
lhe dazzling land where passion beckoneth;
Yet shalt thou find, fair as the vision seems,
Like the lost wave upon the shore, but death.

Z MILWAUKEE, Wis, May Al. c.
Payne, ex-senator Spnoner and Gen.
Farchild were tonight conceded to be
the probable choice of three for the
four delegates at large from Wis.
consin to the Republican national
convention at Minneapolis. The ma
jority of the $50 delegates to the state
convention which meets here tomorrow
were on the ground this evening, and
upon the question as to whose name
would complete the big quartette Opin-
ion was divided between Ogden II.
Fether and Congressman Isaac Stephen
son. Talk of selecting FetheI for pre-
siding officer of the state convention, it
was thought. might prevent him from
receiving the other plum.
Not little comment was caused by
the uon-arrival of ex-Gov. Hoard, who,
It had been said. would again force mat
ters in connection with the Bennett
school law. The fact that a gentleman
bearing the ex-goyernOr's proxy was
in the city this evening seemed
to confirm seIDi-official statements
that the platform would speak
of the compulsory education issue as
settled. and that there would he no new
upheaval in the convention over the
matter. An impression prevails that
the resolutions, while heartily indors-
ing President Harrison'S administra-
ton, will contain instruction for DO cam

Judge Neweps candidacy for national

conversation among the delegates last
evening. and when the report was stated
that a resolution would be introduced
in the convention today indOrsing him
for the place the friends of Bob Evans
were inclined to from down the move
ment. Some Of them insinuated that in
this event Mr. Newell would not be
chosen a delegate at large. but that

field against him. The Newell men
claimed that Mr.. Sabin is not and will
not be candidate, while the opposition
smile and say: wait and see."
You are candidate for reelection

HUTCHINSON, Kan, May 4.-The Re-
publican state convention, to elect dele
gates at large to The Minneapolis con-
vention and to nominate a congress
man at large, will be held here to-
morrow. State issues this year seem to
overshadow everything. and national
issues are almost lost sight of in the
scramble for places on the state ticket.
The Republicans expect to reverse the
iAlIiance majOrities of two years ago,
and are so confident of success that
nomination on the state ticket is re-
gard by them as almost the same thing
as an election.
! Four delegates at large will be select
Sed, and there are eight candidates.
,Among them is john j. ingalls,, whose
return to active political life will he
at this convention. Mr.. Ingalls, is now
probably the most popular with his party
of all the Kansas Republican leaders.
Mr. ingalls, will be present at the con-
ivention tomorrow. He has not given
Iany intimation of what his new political
! lambitiOn may be, but 1t has been de-
cided to send him to Minneapolis at the
head of the Kansas delegation. Mr..
ingalls, will probably accept that honor.

that he would.

SPRINGFIELD. ILL.,, May 4.-The larg-
est Republican convention in the history
of the state of Illinois assembled in this
city at o'clock this afternoon. The
temporary chairman'S reference to Pres
ident Harrison evoked but feeble ap-
plause, but the mention of Blaine'S
name produced a tumult of enthusiasm.
A telegram from Senator CullOm was
read congratulating Illinois Repub-
licans on the prospect of victory. The
vote on a m OtiOn to choose the commit
tees by congressional districts was re-
garded as a test of the Fifer factions
strength and showed the governors fol-
lowers to be in large majority. Their
strength was again displayed when they
defeated an attempt to hold a night ses-
sion and forced the convention to adj
iOurn till tomorrow morning.
The committees on credentials, ,resOiu
tions and to select delegates at large
were in session until late hour. The
platform will indorse Harrison, Fifer
and Cullom. Delegates at large named
by the committee are: Shelby M. Cul-
lom,' Richard j. Oglesby, James H.
Gilbert, Joseph Cannon, Miles Ke-
hoe. Joseph Robbins. S. B. Raymond.
and George B. Swift. Cullom's follow
lers are jubilant over their victory in
placing the senator's name at the head
of the delegation. as the Filter men,
who were supposed to be in complete
control of the convention, had decided
for Oglesby.
At IL O'Clock tonight the committee
on resolutions decided by vote of Is to
2lo add a resolution to the platform
iiidorsing in warmeSt terms the admin
istration of President Harrison and
insiructing the state delegation to vote

for treasurer and George Willis and

Bishop Foster Presents One at
Omaha.


Omaha.
OMAHA, Neb., May 4.-Bishop Warren
of Denver, presided at the mornings
session of the Methodist Episcopal con-
ference. Two hours time was given
to the episcopal address, which was
delivered by Bishop Foster. The
past quadrennial. the report stated,
had been a prosperous one for the
church. Work in the foreign field had
been given special care and numerous
visits py the bishop to foreign lands had
been made with beneficial results. The
book concerns of the church are the
largest in the world. There have been
no diSSensiOnS in the church and there
is more Intelligence and less bigOtry in
the pulpit.
The membership during the past four
years has crowd rapidly, and DOW mum
bers 2,293,G14 communicates; 442.0O0
souls have been added to the church
during the four years by confession of
faith; churches have increased 264,
with an increased valuation of SIS, L.
321: contributions TO all societies have
increased 1884, 1876. The EpwOrth league
received great praise as a mediator be-
tween the Sunday school and the
churcD. IL mas III three years sprung up
from naught to 5000 chapters with 500,-
600 members. The national university
at Washington is announced as GER
tainty and liberal endowments asked
for. as millions will be necessary for its
equipment. The woman'S college in
Baltimore was also commended.
"The church demands an American
lied franchise as well as naturaliZed
franchise" said the bishop. THE con-
tinuation of foreign languages and GUS
toms in this country is wrong, and we
are openly opposed to the teaching of
foreign languages in schools. The CEN
tralization of wealth is denounced, and
if not arrested there Will be danger to
the social and state functions. The
church must act. 1t cannot side with
wealth: it must go with the toiling mass.
