The New Jersey state Epworth league
convention. at its session in Newark, de-
nounced the race track legislation, pro-
tested against the opening on Sunday of
the Worlds fair and declared unani-
mously that it discouraged the use of
tobacco.
The Rev. 81. 8. Springer of Arlington.
in speaking for the Newark district.
said:
Bring back the amen corner and the
mourners' benches, and let us not con-
tinue in the present formal way. Take
down the advertisement of the under
taker that is on the front Of our
churches and put in its place the inscrip-
ton, i am the resurrection and the life.'
Take away the little sign with M.
E. Church on it and place one 90 feet
long across the front of the ediice hay-
ing the words Central Methodist Epis-
copal Church in big letters, every word
spelled out. Let's have some sensation
alism to cope with the devils plans of
work"

Became Crazy From Quitting Tobacco.

There was a lively time on a Pullman
car on the Southern road last night while
en- route from New Orleans to this city.
AT Chattanooga William C. Blackburn
of this city, a porter on one of the ears,
began to act queerly. He ran through
the train screaming and nearly scared
the passengers out of their wits. At one
time he took all the money out of his
pockets and threw it out of the window.
He finally became so violent that it was
necessary to chain him in an apartment.
Upon arriving at the Grand Central
depot he was taken to police headquar-
tiers. from which he was sent to the city
hospital. The only explanation of Black
burns strange conduct was that he had
been crazed by tobacco. Some time ago
he was an inveterate user Of the weed,
but stopped suddenly. Yesterday he took
q big chew of tobacco before he began to
act crazy.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

HOUSE LEADERS.


Cochran and Bynum ritted Against
Culbertson and Bland.
Mr.. Bourke Cochran Of New York,
and Mr.. Bynum of Indiana, it is said,
are to be the leaders of the anti-silver
forces on the Democratic side Of the
door of the house. 1t Is stated that the
disting uished Tammany orator, at the
suggestion of Mr.. Cleveland himself,
has. devoted his spare time during the
summer to the study Of the question In
all its phases. Saturday Mr.. Cochran
went to Mr.. Culberson of Texas, and
Mr.. Bland, and stated the anti-silver
men were willing to start in with the
discussion of the silver question on the
second day of the session without re-
ferring Ii or waiting for consideration
or report from any committee. The
underlying motive of this suggestion In
said to be a fear on Mr.. Cochran's part
that Speaker Crisp will give the silver
men q majority on the coinage commit
tee. He urged upon the silver leaders
that to wait for q COMMITTEES report
would delay action so that ii would be
at least two weeks and probably three
before any committees would be an
nounced.
Doesn't Suit Culbertson.
Mr.. Culbertson told Mr.. Cochran
that he would not agree to his PROPOSE.

could get their views before the conn.

After Organization IL Adjourned Ont
of Respect For Senator Stanford.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.-The senate
chamber was in its midsummer at tire,
the floors being laid with mating.
Half a dozen of the desks of senators on
the Democratic side were provided
with handsome flowers. The galleries
were filled with ladies in light summer
costume, and the floor was open to Wis
itors up to within a quarter on an nour
OF IL. One of the first senator's to put
in IN appearance was Mr.. Stewart OF
Nevada. and his desk was the central
point of attraction for senators of both
parties as they arrived. Mr.. German
was one of those and he and Mr.. Stew
art had a mos friendly greeting and
long chat. Mi. Mills of Texas was in
his seat about the same ii me that MIR.
Stewart came in, but there was no
greeting between the two. MIR. Teller
of Colorado arrived at about five min
utes before 10, and at the same moment
q magnificent basket Of flowers was
laid on his desk. He was most cor
daily welcomed by many senator's.
Just before the stroke Of noon, Mr.. Col
quit was wheeled into the chamber,
but before he could be gotten to the
chair the vice presidents gavel fell, a
hush came suddenly on the talk and
confusion, and the chaplain, Rev. Mr..
Butler, opened the session with prayer.
The senate was already virtually or
ganized, officers having been elected at
the session in March.
After the presidents proclamation
was read, the oath of Office was admin
istered to Senators Quay of Pennsyl-
vania and Pascoe of Florida. and a
communication was read from Mr..
Beckwith Of Wyoming, announcing
that owing to the combination of cir.
cumstances he had placed his resigna.
ton as senator in the hands of the gov.
ernor. The communication was placed
on file.
The secretary-elect of the senate, MIR.
Cox Of North Carolina, had the oath
administered to him and took posses.
sion of the Office. The usual resolu
tons to notify the house and president
were adopted and at 1890 the death oil
the late Senator Stanford of California
was announced by Mr.. White of tina
state, and as q mark of respect tn.
senate adjourned for the day.

embodied in q report from . majority
of the committee on coinage. Mr..
Cochran said he was willing to jump
into the middle of the discussion at
once, that he would agree there should
be no closure and that every man
should say everything he had to say ON
the subject Of silver without interrupt
ton. and that at the end of the Discus
sion there should be u vote taken on
every proposition.
Two BiIia.
, The inten ton il that MI. Cochran
shall at the first opportunity introduce
o bill to repeal the Sherman act out
right without any conditions or substi-
tutes. Mr.. Culberson win also intro
duce o bill, or omeone will in his be-
half, which will provide for the repeal
Of the purchasing clause Of the Sher-
man act and will also provide FOR the
coinage Of silver without mintage ut
the ratio Of 10 to i. The bill, it Ii I'M
derstood, In its wording. will follow a.
closely a. may DO section Z Of the Dem
ocratic platform Of 1891. which favors
''the coinage of both gold and
silver without discriminating against
either metal or charge for mintage.
The dollar unit coinage Of both metals
must be OF equal intrinsicate and ex-
changeabie value, adjusted through in
Sensational agreement or by such safe
guards Of legislation as shall insure the
maintenance Of the parity of the two
metals and the equal power Of every
dollar at all times in all markets and in
the payment Of debts" By this meant
it Is thought that the Democratic OPP
ponents Of q bill thus framed viii be
put in the attitude before the country
Of opposing their own platform.

Checking Kentucky Pride.

The Home and School puts a check on
impulsive state pride by curt catalogue
Of things the Kentuckian can learn at
the Worlds fair" Among these are:
THAT Kentucky is not the only coun-
try on earth.
THAT a horse is not the MODEST work
of God.
THAT if our legislature is the worst in
the Union it has competition.
THAT there is some beauty and q good
deal Of brains outside his own state.
"That there is much in q name. and
surs might be improved.
THAT the earth will not worship him
because he Is from Kentucky.
THAT there are many other people al
hospitable as he, and a few more polite.
"That q man is not necessarily o foo
because he doesn't talk HORSE"

He Only Wanted One

A jay went into a restaurant in
the city and ordered a "dozen oys-
tiers fried" The order was duly
filled and then the jay, who was
fond of tomato catsup, looked
around for the bottle. He found a
small one, and remarked, "Weu,
by gosh these fellows are mean,
and I'll be darned if 1 don't clean
out the whole bottle" He did so,
and then taking his fork he swal-
lowed an oyster. But che only
wanted onew The supposed to-
mato catsup was Tobasco sauce
and the inner man was so burnt up
that he thought for a long time
that Hades was located in his in
side.
