Cleveland Sure of GeG Votes,
A LIVELY SESSION.
The Syracuse Contestant' Have a Hard
Time "Crnw fishing"


CHICAGO, June 21.-There was a hot
time and bitter words were exchanged this
evening at meeting of the committee on
credentials. Having instituted formal con-
test proceedings, and hereby carried out the
directions adopted at Syracuse, the SYRIA
cuse delegates withdrew their contest and
terminated the incident in resolution sub
mittsd as having been unanimously adopted
by the delegation.
The resolution states that it is the wish of
the delegation and those whom it represents,
to secure the supremacy of democratic prn-
cipes and insure the election Of the party's
candidates for president and e-president.
1t SAYS that the delegation has received
from the representatives of moro
than AZ States and Territories
concurrent expression of opinion that
the interests of the democratic party would
be promoted by the avoidance Of contro-
versy concerning the representation of
New York in the national convention,
and it declares that in Difference to
the opinion of brethren from other States
and Territories the delegates elected at
Syracuse determine to press no further
claims for membership in the national con
ventlon.
When Chairman Lamb submitted Fred
erick X. Coudert's request that he DO allow
ed to make statement Withdrawing the
credentials of the Syracuse delegates filed
this afternoon, motion was made to lay
the request on the table, but it was declared
that he should be heard.
Bourke Cochran maintained that there
was nothing before tho committee. lie had
never heard Of a contest having its inclpi-
ency in the contest committee.
No credentials were submitted by the
contestants to the convention. Mr., Foote
of California wanted harmony and hear
ing for Mr.. Coudert.
Chairman Lamb found a loopLole through
which MIR. Coudet's request could be granted
in the fact that Mr. Cochran had not OBJ
jected in the afternoon whom Gen. Bragg
filed the Syracuse credentials.

The latest news from the New York

The cessation of freight transport over the
Baltimore q Ohio and the Pennsylvania
railroads, owing to the Grand Army of the
Republic encampmcnt at Washington, is
working to the disadvantage of the bitumi-
nous coal trade. Coal Is exceedingly scarce
in the face of a great demand. As an in
stance Of the scarcity ofcoal we may mention
that great difficulty is beng experienced in

Anniversaries Of 1899.

1t is worthy of remark that 1892 will
be the anniversary of three great dis
coveiies, two of which are of particular
interest to the people of Oregon and
Washington. In 1892 Columbus dis
covered America. In 1892 Juan de
Fuca discovered the strait which bears
his name, and in 1892 Captain Robert
Gray discovered Gray's Harbor and the
Columbia river. 1t is therefore emi-
nently proper that while the discovery
OF Columbus is to be celebrated at the
Worlds Fair in Chicago in 1892, a GEL
ebration should also be held by the
people OF Oregon and Washington to
celebrate the 300th anniversary of the
discovery Of Fuca strait and the CEN
tennial anniversary OF the discoveries
OF Captain Robert Gray in his old ship
Columbia, which gave to the United
States the whole of the northwest re-
gion of Oregon and Washington.
hope that our State legislature at it's
special session will take the initiative
in movement which will give us a
grand celebration in the coming CEN
tennial year, and eventuate in having
fitting monuments erected to perpetu-
ate the memories OF Juan de Fuca and
Robert Gray.

Alpha beticel Travels.


The current number OF Entertain-
meM describes this game, which may
be made very amusing:
A game in which not a little inge-
nuity is required, and one in which old
and young may join is that OF alphabet
cal travels. Any number of persons may
play. Each OF the PLAYERS who sit in
a row, tells, in order, to what place he
will travel and what he will do there
always using for principal words,
such as nouns, adjectives and verbs,
those beginning with single letter of
the alphabet. The first player takes
A. the second d and SO on, until all
have letters. Thus the players, in
order, may say:
al am going to Africa to Ask an
Arab for ApricOts"
al am going to Boston to Buy
Baked Beans"
al am going to California to Cut
Curious Capers."
i am going to Damascus to Dine
on Delicious Doughnuts."
al am going to England to Ever
lastingly Eat Eggs"
Anyone unable to give sentence of
this kind may be required to pay a
forfeit, or a score may be kept, the
successful ones being given a point.
In this case the company may be di-
vided into sides. The method o!
playing must be agreed upon before
hand, but with this outline of the
game it will be very easy matter for
all alphabetical tourists to get con-
siderable fun out of their travels.

THE Odd Fellows of the State OF H.


The Odd Fellows Of the State OF H.
linois have caught the sky-scraping in.
lection. They propose to build q tenn
pie in Chicago that will be not only
one OF the most imposing structures of
its kind in the United States but the
tallest building in the world. Its
tower will rise to height of $50 feet,
and will be visible a distance of sixty
miles. Every available foot of space
in this huge building will be utilized.
The area OF the ground floor will be
$4,000 square feet and the total area
something ever $4,000 square feet.
The main structure will be twenty
stories high, and to this dizzy distance
the tower will add fourteen stories.
Five floors of the building will be fitted
up for lodge rooms and the remainder
for offices. The rooms will be reached
by eighteen elevators and four stair
ways, the latter being merely safety
appliances in case of fire. The discus.
sion OF the bodybuilding question
wakes exceedingly warm in Chieag
the disputants being sharply divided
into "sky-scrapers" and slow limit"
advocates. If these inordinately lofty
structures are, as is claimed, menace
to public health and safety, the protest
against them should be made effective
before many such buildings as the pro-
posed Odd Fellows temple are project
ed.

A BOY BAROMETER.
An Illinois Youngsters Hair as q
Weather Indicator,

According to correspondent of the
Chicago Inter Ocean there is remark
able boy living on farm in Center
vile township, near Mascoutah, H.,
or rather a boy with a remarkable
head OF hair. His name is Tommy
Johnson, and he is about fourteen
years OF age. He is the only son of
Frank Johnson, a wellto-do farmer of
Centerville township. The boy is
healthy and intelligent and a great
deal like other boys, with the excep-
ton of his wonderful head of hair.
The hair is straight and black as
that OF an Indian ordinarily, but at
the approach Of storm the hair be-
gins to kink and curl two or three
days beforehand, and it remains in
that condition until after the storm is
over, when again it becomes perfectly
straight. If the storm is of any mag
nitude the hair will curl up into little
balls.
The boys hair is used as barome-
ter by the farmers of that section. If
a neighboring farmer wants to haul
hay to town, harvest wheat or any
thing else that makes him particularly
interested in the weather, he calls at
the johnson home beforehand and
looks at Tommy's hair. If the hair is
straight, the farmer makes his arrange
ments to do the work but if the hair
is curled, then the work is postponed
until after the approaching storm
The people of the vicinity have seen
the warming of rains and storms veri-
fled so often that they have implicit
faith in Tommy's hair as barometer.
For an ordinary rain the hair kinks
only trifle.
A few weeks ago it was discovered
that Tommy's hair was kinked in
hard balls all over his head, and the
news spread all over the community
in very short time. The next day a
violent storm struck that section, do
ing considerable damage. After the
storm was over the people were great
ly relieved, until it was learned that
Tommy's hair was curled up more
than ever, and then another storm
was expected. The second storm was
cyclone. Houses were blown down
and several people were badly injured
in the neighborhood. After the cy-
clone Tommy's hair became perfectly
straight again, and the people rejoiced
thereat.
