CHICAGO's PORK PRINCE.
A Story of Phil Armour and His
Kindness OF Heat.


"Phil Armour" as everybody calls
him when Mr.. Armour is not present
sits at desk in.full view of the entire
working force of his Office in the Home
Insurance building, says the Chicago
I,ibune. The atmosphere of the
place is redolent with the per-
fume- of an enormous bouquet,
fresh every morning. A boy is OIL the
little wicket-gate which leads into the
Enclosure. He takes your name or card.
If Mr.. Armour recognizes you he will
bow TO you across the room, and some
times he will cone outside to see. you.
There is nothing IN his manner
to create the impression on your
mind that you are not wei
come. But if the subject which you
present is one upon which he does not
want to talk he will tell you so, and per-
haps tell you little story. and before
you can catch him he'is engaged with
some one else and you realize that one
opportunity of your life has taken
wings. tried him once for an interview
which l was almost ordered to obtain,
but before | fairly got started he had
his hand ON my shoulder in the most
agreeable manner, and he said no In

Peri-lIke, and shook his head. put on
an. imporing look. Watching my
chance for the boy to leave the wicket,
| rushed in and was before him be-
fore could be headed off. He laughed
and said that he could not talk to me on
the subject, although had not had an
opportunity to mention it. Then he
aiose from his chair, took me by the
arm good-naturedIy, and walked with
me to the door. And it was not done
in an offensive manner, either. On
the way out he told ME story
which know he did not want printed.
but L wrote it just the same, and it was
printed. / knew young man who
went to see Mr.. Armour once about an
article on Armour and his business
methods. Mr.. Armour hesitated, when
the young man said to him: "Mr. Ar
mour, this means bread and meat to
me. II is not the paper which wants
it7so badly as [ do" Then Mr.. Armour
sat down and told the young man all he
wanted to tell, and a few days after the
article was printed the young man re
eeived from Mr.. Armour a check for
S100. The young man showed the check
to his chief and asked him what he
sheuld do with it. The chief replied,
-"Take it, of course, you earned it."

TRENTON. n. j., May 25.-The plat
form adopted in the Democratic state
convention today reaffirms the princi-
Piles laid down in the national Demo-
cratic platforms of 1884 and 1888; de-
clares that the party should continue its
battles for tariff reform until that re-
form is embodied in the statutes of the
United States; denOunceS the Mckinley
bill; asserts that the Republican party
today puts its strongest claims for its
continuance in power upon case
which, under the name of reciprocity,
is neither more nor less than feeble
step in the direction of tariff reform as
adverted to in the message of President
Cleveland.
The delegates from New Jersey to the
national convention at Chicago are i'll
Structed for Cleveland as candidate for
president as long as his name is before
the convention. The policy of free coin
age of deprecated legal tender silver,
and also further purchases of silver

pressed that the whole matter of the use
of silver as a money metal should be
relegated 10 the future cOmmerclal
action of the commercial nations.

four delegates at large to the Chicago
convention. Senator John B. McPher-
son, Gov. Albeit, James Smith Jr., of
Essex, and Miles Ross. of Middlesex,
were named, and were elected by ac-
clamation. OF the four delegates al
large, Ross, Mcpherson and Smith
agreed to pledge their votes for CleYe-

ground that he desired togo to the con-
vention in higher role than mere

DENVER, Col, May 25.-There was a
strong fight for the four delegates
at large to the convention at Chi
cago. Hon. T. L. Patterson, of Den
yer, was elecled by acclamation; but
for the other three there were five NOM
nations, namely: Theodore O'Donell,
of Denver; James Shinn,. of Lake
county: J. B. Orman. of Pueblo; DR..
Paul, of Aspen, and A. B. Mckinley, of
Denver.
Mr.. Mckinley Withdrew in favor of
Mr.. Shinn, and MessrS. Paul and Or
man were elected by acclaHatiOn. This
narrowed the competition to O'DOnnell
and Shinn. Vote by ballot was taken,
and when the record reached 227 for
O'Donnell and III for Shinn, Mr..
Shinn's name was withdrawn and Mr..
O'Donnell elected by reclamation.
The report of the committee on reSo-
lutiOns denounceS the policy of the
present administration; asks for modi-
fication of the existing tariff laws, and
demands as a right the free and un-
limited coinage of silver. 1t was re-
solved that the delegates to the ma
tional convention use every endeavor to
secure free silver plank, demanding
the restoration of silver and free and un-
limited coinage, and it was declared as
the sense of the Democrats of the state
that they could have little hope of cleo
ton of the Chicago nominee unless such
declaration were made.
A minority report was presented to
the effect that the convention support
no man for the presidency or vice pres
dency who is not unequlvocally i'll favor
of the free and unlimited coinage of
silver, and that the delegates to the Chi
cago convention be instructed, i'll case
the candidates and platform were not in
favor of silver, to withdraw from the
convention. The minority report was
tabled and the majority report adopted.
During all the discussions of the day
Cleveland was continually being ''roast-
ed," while the mention of Hills name
set the delegates wild.

OMAHA CONFERENCE.
Representation and Bishops
Rights Decided.


OMAHA, Neb., May 25.-In the Meth
odist conference today the committee
on lay representation reported in favor
of equal lay and clerical representation
i'm the general conference, one Iayman
and one ministerial delegate for each
400 ministers in the annual conference.
A spirited debate ensued. followed by
decidedly close work in ballots.
An effort was made to adopt an
amendment offered by DR.. Nicely to re-
fer the question Of lay representation
to the annual conference. A motion to
table the amendment failed by tie
vote. The laymen called for vote by
orders on the Neely amendment, and
the call was sustained. DR.. Neely's
amendment was defeated by the vote esof
the laymen. 1t requires majority of
both orders to carry anything When
they vote separately.
DR.. Neely now played a parliamentary
trump by calling for vote by orders
upon the committee report. The result
stood as follows: Laymen for, 143;
Iavmen against, II: ministers for, 1877;
ministers against, los. The chairman
held that the report had been adopted
by the concurrent vote of both orders.
Some of the delegates held that it re-
Quired tW0-tnlrQS majority or D0tn OF
ders to carry vote when there was a
division. The question was referred to
the Judiciary committee.
The committee on the next ecumeni-
cal conference submitted report in
favor of having committee appointed
consisting of eighteen members to act
upon the matters relating to the inter-
ests of the church. Carried.
Every ear was bent to catch the re-
mort of the committee on Judiciary
touching the prerogatives of the bishops
at meetings of the book committee
when vacancies were to be filled. The
judiciary committee decided that the

questions before the committee only

EAU CLAIRE, Wis, May 25.-The
verdict of guilty against Elizabeth Rus
sell continues to cause excitement. Her
attorney asked for date on which he
could argue for an arrest of Judgment
and a new trial, saying that he had
received only part of the testimony
from the court reporters. The Judge
set as such date Saturday, June 4. He
SAID the supreme court would decide on
the question of the district attorney
representing himself as the defendants
counsel when she was i'll jail, and upon
some other questions which might be
deemed errors. For himself, he was
not disposed to grant new trial. The
jury, he thought, had acted upon the
facts of the case. So it is likely the
verdict will stand, unless overruled by
the supreme court on the ground of the
district attorney abusing his power as
a state officer.

here this morning when it was discov-

a mystery, although rnmors of various
descriptions are rife. The family live
at Gilbert Lake, mile from Brainerd,
and on the fatal night her husband had
gone to Fargo on business, eXpec ting to

Mrs. Frost dispatched the hired man to

she was found in bed in an unconscious
