At the Bethesda Mission on
South Clark street, there was de-
lightful Gospel Temperance meet
ing last Sunday night. Mr.. George
Woodford made a rousing rracti-
cal talk just suited to the needs of
the men from the streets. Rev.
DR.. w. Ii. Ashley of Shelburne,
Mass. added strong, useful words;
and Mrs. III. b. Kells had some
what the helpful to say. Many
men signed the p'edgc and there
were some hopeful conversions.
This Mission is under the care of
DIR. Bessie V. Cushman, who takes
the vital interest in it felt by one
who believes that all life must and
can be redeemed; she spends most
evenings of the week at this Gospel
Temperance Station, where there
is service every night but Friday.
1t is q great experience to hear
strong men give their wonderous
testimony to the Gospel cure for
the appetite for drink, and to see
them with their wives and little
ones by their sides, showing others
how the family life has been re-
deemed by grace, There IS power
il it.

Mississippi State Convention at

Griffin, while her broad minded,

ST. LOUIS, Feb. PIT was a conglom-
crate gathering that met in convention
here this afternoon to consider upon the
desirability of third party. A delegate
from Oregon had the floor for a time,
declaring that the opening gun of the
national campaign would be fired by
his state and calling for helpl to carry
Oregon for the peoples party. The re-
port of SchiHing showed that less than
$50 remained in the party exchequer,
and that of $1,000 subscribed at the Gin
cinnati convention only one subscriber
had turned in a cent. Chairman Tau
beneck authorized the appointment of a
committee of ten to canvass for funds.
The committee was having hot wrangle
as to whether it should record itself as
ordering arrangements made for the
national convention, when a halt was
demanded by Marion Cannon, state
president of the California farmers
alliance. It was decided before doing
anything further to await the action of
the convention. If that body decided to
take action looking to the nomination of
a presidential candidate, the peoples
party will go ahead upon it's own hook

Senator Do1ph Stole a March.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-Mr. Stump, of
Maryland, and Mr.. Geary, of California,
are involved in an amusing, but none
the less bitter, personal controversy over
the authorship of Chinese bill in the
house. While they are disputing as to
who would receive the credit for the bill
introduced, Senator Dolph, of Oregon,
introduced and passed Chinese exclu-
sion bill in the senate, thus stealing the
thunder of both of them. Representa-
tive Robert Hit, of Illinois, who is an
authority on diplomatic service in the
house by reason of his connection with
the diplomatic service at home and
abroad, and also his long service in the
committee on foreign affairs. in ;connec-
ton with the controversy now going on
between mem bers as to who shall have
the credit OF forcing the passage of
the Chinese exclusion act. says the var
ious acts proposed are. in direct viola
tion of the treaty with the Chinese gov
ernment. He is not posing as the
Chinaman's friend, but he is disposed to
believe that there is more political sem
timent than anything else mixed up in
the Chinese question. There are men
in congress today, from the Pacific coast,
who have small armies of Chinese SER
wants at home, and in private converse
ton they declare that they could not get
along without Chinese domestics. "If
the Chinese finally concluded to co.
continued Hit. "and there was no fur
ther pretext to agitate the question,
some of our political friends would be
out of a job" The same condition oi
affairs would result, he said, if the tariff
and the silver questions were finally dis
posed of just now.

ALBANY, Feb. 22.-The N. Y. State
| democratic convention was called to or
der by Chairman Edward Murphy, of
the state committee, at noon today. The
crush was tremendous, many delegates
being shut out through the anxiety of
Albany people to get in. Without for
mality the chairman introduced the
temporary chairman, Judge George NJ.
Beebe. Judge Beebe's reference to
David 3. Hill as "a leader under whom
the democracy never had known disaster,
dishonor or defeat" evoked great ap-
plause. Following the speech of Beebe,
| the clerk called the roll of delegates.
When the name of Lieut.. Gov. Sheehan
was called, there wasssa surprising DEM
onstration of applause, almost equaling
that accorded the mention of Hills
name. Committees were appointed,
and rules fixed to govern the selection of
delegates to the National convention in
Chicago, June 21st. A recess was taken
until $3.50 p. M. Previous to the as
sembling of the state convention the
state committee met for the purpose of
the Cooper union meeting, with reso-
luton asking for dissolution of today's
convention, by unanimous vote was
tabled. Immediately after tabling the
Cooper union protest the committee de-
cided the contest in the second Chautau-
qua, first Oswego and fourth Albany dis
tricts. In each case, Hill delegates were
fselected. Thus contests were shut out
from the notice of the convention. The
committee of the anti-Hill movement
met in paivate quarters, where the situ-
| alton was canvassed for definite hear
ing and definite action. The members
of the committee are Glory Anderson,
w. r. Grace, Colonel Robert NJ. Monroe,
Edward B. Whitney, and Wallace Me-
Farland.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-Ex-Senator
Henry W. Blair has little to, say con-
corning his declared candidacy for the

reporter he had been importuned by

for the honor, and he believed their con-
fidence in him demanded an honest
statement on his part. He added: ST

scandal Moneer Punished.

HASTINGS, Neb., Feb. ga. Yocum,
ex-mayor of Hastings, and at present
special collector of customs, with head
quarters in Idaho, who is home on a
visit, this evening met NJ ron von Fleet
in front of the Hotel Bostrick, on one OF
the busiest thoroughfares in the the
city. Without word he pulled revol-
yer and fatally shot Won Fleet. The
affair is the outgrowth of a scandalous
article published in sensational sheet
in Lincoln in December, alleging that
Captain Yocum's daughter had eloped
to Denver, with colored coachman.
The story spread until it reached the
ears of the family, when the fact. was
made public that Miss Yocum had not
been away from the city at all. 1t is
asserted she had been bounded by Won
Fleet, who had repeatedly thrust his
attentions upon her. When Cap.
Yocum. returned he investigated the
matter, and satisfied himself Won Fleet
was the author of the scandal, and to-
night shot him. Yocum is in custody.

reduced the cost of producing it, that its
price has been reduced from five and six
dollars to fifty cents pound. Wher-
ever ightness and resistance to corrosion
are desirable this metal is greatly super
ier to anything now known, and while
it will probably never be the universal
metal that iron is, it will largely sup
plant copper, tin, zinc, pewter, brittania,
metal, brass, German silver and even
silver. When pure, it is not much
stronger than steel in proportion to its
weight, but in alloys it may supplant
steel for many engineering purposes.
Aluminium is only two and half times
as heavy as water, while iron is seven
and half times as heavy, brass eight
times, copper nine times, silver ten and
a half times, lead eleven times and gold
nineteen times. This fact, together with
its non-corrosiveness, gives aluminium a.
decided advantage over silver for table
ware and for ornamental work, for cook
ing utensils, and for use in surgical in
struments. The German government is
substituting aluminium for copper in it's
cartridge shells, as copper is rapidly cor
roded by the new smokeless powder. In
fact, almost every day new uses for
which aluminium is peculiarly suited are
being discovered. Next to oxygen and
silicon, aluminium is the most abundant
element on the earth's surface, and the
only limit to the rapid extension of its
use in the cost of manufacture.

But to K!ndIe the Enthusiasm of Repub.
licaus Everywhere.
When an Honest Belief is Expressed
Candidates Made by the
People.

DETROIT, FeD. 22.-1he annual ban
quet of the Michigan Club, celebrating
Washington s birthday, brought together
the leading republican politicians from
all parts of this state, and from many
other states. 1t was stated the banouet
was not given for the purpose of for
warding the interests of any presidential
candidate particularly. 1t was denied
that there was any intention to boom
Gen. Alger, and it was asserted its sole
! object was to kindle the enthusiasm of
the republicans OF the state for the party
nominee, whoever he may be. The
banquet was held in the rink, great.
barn-like structure, whose inherent ug-
illness was hidden away under the folds
OF artistically draped bunting and por-
traits of Washington, Lincoln, Grant
and others. Covers were laid for 1900
persons at the tables upon the main
floor, while upon the platform at one
side, under a brilliant canopy, sat the
speakers and the guests of honor Gen.
Alger introduced Congressman Burrows
to deliver the address of welcome, and,
in doing so, referred to the Michigan
lzing" by the democrats, and declared
that in November Michigan would elect
legislature that would restore the leg
islative districts to their proper shape
and elect republican successor to SEN
ator Stockbridge. Burrows said the
task of welcoming the guests of the club
annually devolved upon the governor,
but owing to slight mistake this time
that gentleman happened to be a demo-
crat. He assured his hearers, however,
the mistake should not happen again in
the next twenty-five years. Michigan,
he said, had always the least electoral
vote for a republican presidential candi-
date, and proceeded to give the list
from 1856 down. When Blaine's name
was reached, the assembly broke into
round of enthusiastic applause. His
Endorsement of the Mckinley law and
reciprocity was also warmly greeted.
Senator Dolph, of Oregon, spoke on
Washington, the Protectionist At
ter making fitting allusion to the mem
Org of Washington, Senator Dolph pro-
ceeded to discuss the tariff question, the
all-absorbing question which divides
the two great political parties today, and
upon which it becomes more and more
evident the next presidential contest will
be fought. He paid his tribute to the
success of the Mckinley law, and said
the reciprocity provision of the law
proved of great value. In conclusion
the senator warmly eulogized President
Harrison's administration, and ex-
pressed the opinion that the people will
again, as in 1888, lay aside all difference
of opinion upon minor matters, and by
their verdict IN November again declare
that American industry and American
labor shall be protected against cheap
labor and cheap labor products of for
eign countries.

Mt. SoLON, April 2O.-About fourteen
years ago the mail between Mt Scion and
StauntOn was carried on horseback: the
price paid was about $500. and rough
weather Oh a rise in the rivers was apt to
leave US without any mail. Later. a re-
markable man for energy and business sa-
gacity, Henry Randolph, got the contract.
lie put on wagon and attended to the
transportation of packages as promptly
and faithfully as Adams Express ever did.
lie never carries a memorandum book but
he never makes the slightest mistake.
Everybody liked the obliging mail carrier
who would willingly give his seat to a pas
senger and get out and walk by his team,
and it is not surprising that his business has
grown so as to employ three teams three
times week. Rival bidding has of late
years got the mail contract down to less
than 5000, but Randolph still takes it and
makes money. He owns three nice farms
well stocked. 1 am told that when he went
to make $500 payment on one of them, the
largest piece of money he paid was dollar.
Thrifty, scrupulously honest, and energet-
ic, he is of the sort that everybody likes to
see thrive.

bitten a hog for Peter Driver, a COW for

heir farms, MI. Martz himself having a
narrow escape. 1t bit several dogs when it
got back to Mt Scion. Mr.. Chas. Berry
killed it with his breech-loader and then
