of the Lewis county convention in instrueting

other two counties together, such action makes
attendance upon judicial convention useless.

FALL RIVER Mass, Aug. 10.-Tonight 1t cam
not be said that the police have any substantial
clue to the murderer Of Mr.. and Mrs Borden.
Theories are plentiful, but reliable evidence Is

bulletin to the press this evening, as follows:
The inquest continued today. The witnesses
examined were Miss Lizzie Borden. John v.
Morse, Miss Emma L Borden, DR.. 8. w. Bowen,
Adelside b. Churchill and Hiram C. Harring-

This was given out after an examination last.

OF Miss Borden are of the opinion that she is in
nocent In his testimony today it IL said DR..
Bowen incidentally gave evidence which
startled the authorities. The nature of this will
not be given for publication, but it is learned
that tomorrow another examination OF the dead
bodies will be made at Oak Grove cemetery.
Taken altogether, the evidence collected by the
authorities Is very insufficient and meager upon
which to base charges against any member of
the family.

RILEY'S LAST READING.
The HoOsier Poet Makes His Last
Bow for the Time.

Bow for the Time.
James Wbi;eomb Riley appeared for the
last time during his present engagement at
Metropolitan Hall last night, and the house
was filled almost to OVERLOOKING. 1t was an
audience such as any man might well feel
proud OF, and the class of people who were
In attendance testified to the esteem ia
which the genius of the man is held. There
were present some Of the very best people
OF tie city, and at times they were wildly
enthusiastic In their demonstrations of APP
plause. Particularly was this the case
when Riley rendered his selections in
dialect.
For some reason. as the poet himself con-
fesses. his dialect poems take hrmer hold
upon the public mind than those written in
serious vein, and yet lie is of the opinion
that they are inferior in fniSh aud tone. 1t
must be as he intimates that their faithful
ness TO nature appeals TO the average brain
and goes direct to tie heart of the ordinary
auditor.
There is one thing which Is true Of Riley
and 1t was fully demonstrated last night
the fact that he is a born comedian. and
might have made his mark upon the stage.
hts face is markably mobile and express
slve. and in his action he reminds one strik-
ingly Of Sol Smith Russell.
tie has singular power of drawing both
tears and laughter from his audience, and
at times last night there was scarcely dry
eye in the house. Again they would be
eonvulsed with laughter, and the poet
would be compelled TO pause for some time
before proceeding.
AT the same time he impressed his hearers
with tie fact that he had reserve force,
and that he could have done much better
had he tried.
Taken all in all his engagement has been
success. and has given the local public a
much better idea OF the character of the man.
