that they should not permit the charms of
Washington to scdpce them into leisure nor
to allure them from the important business
which lay before the convention. Some

The paper evoked rather an animated
discussion. which was participated in by a
score OF the delegates. Delegate Bowen
made a warm speech in which he said that
he was opposed to the use Of the conyen-
ton and Of the associat ion for the purpose
OF advertising particular methods of pro-
ducfng gas. He moved to empower the Sec
