GRANT THEIR CANDIDATE.
Ths Ex-Maycr Nominated by Tammany
In Place OF straus. Resigned

Ehs Ex-Mayor Nominaeed by Tammany
In Place OF straus, Resigned.
New YORK, Oct. 20.-Hugh J. Grant
was named as Tammany's candidate
for mayor, vice Nathan Straus, with
drawn, at the meeting of the execu-
tive committee in Tammany hall yes
terday afternoon
Mr. Grant in response to the com
mittee's notification, said: my de-
ter minat1on to accept is based upon
conditions which viii hereafter state
SO there can be no mistake about my
politics
MY conditions are that such can
didates now on the ticket, whose can
didacy regard as injurious, shall be
removed from the ticket
The committee then escorted Mr..
grant to Tammany hall, where he
was received with tremendous ap-
plause. 1t was announced that a
new platform had been prepared ex-
pressly for Mr.. Grant.
The new platform attacks first the
apportionment provided for in the
cons titutionaI amendment and SAYS
Democrats must fight against so un-
just division of district representa-
ton.
The Sherman silver bill is held re
sponsible for the recent hard times,
and the platform also characterizes
the a. p A. as a foul institution, the
intent of which is to divide parties
and people upon a religious basis and
to preclpltate a sectarian war.

Texas Emcfae MraIn Held Up ln Bread
DaylfRht
WEArHEHFoED, Texas, Oct 3o.-The
west bound passenger train on the
Texas Pacific railway. which left here
1t 1890 yesterday morning. was held
up and robbed by four men near Cor
Ion about noon. The corresponden
learned from Mr. J. B. Young Of Cor
don, who was on the west bound train
last evening. that at point about
two miles this side Of Gordon four
men, unmarked, approached the sec
ton gang and forced them to obstruct
the road and flag the train as it APP
preached, and when the train was
stopped the bandits forced the express
messenger to open the door Of the
express car They also forced the
section men to 90 into the car with a
sIedge hammer and try to batter the
com bination off the express safe, but
their efforts to open the safe we're un-
fruitful. The messe nger's way safe
was battered open and what money
there was in it was taken by the rob
beIs- The amount secured, 1t IS es-
timated. runs anywh ere between $500
and IS, 900. To-day being payday
at Thurber for the large mum Der of
hands that work at the mines, there
was in the com binatiOn safe $40, 600
consigned to the Pacific Coal compa-
ny, which was to pay of the hands.
Suspicious characters have been
seen for the past month or 50 in that
section, and the express com pany was
repaired for the attack, ; they had
on the train one of their spe cial com
binatiOn safes. to which no agent
along the route knew the com Dina-
ton The express company had
special man back in the coach who
knew the com binatiOn to the safe
and who would come forward at sta
tons where he was needed and open
the SAFE The passengers and mail
cars were not molested by the rob
bers-
After the robbery was committed
the four robbers walked away toward
the mountains, whistling, going in 4
southerly direction. The Texas and
Pacific Coal company Of Thurber have
offered $500 re ward for the capture of
the robbers The train was in charge
of Conductor J. II. McLoud, the ex-
press car in charge of Messenger Gay
There were no shots fred during the
robbery and it is considered one Of
the bOldest train rob berries ever re-
corded in the country for long time
Tt is thought the rob berS are from
the Indian territory and are now on
their way back Posses are out after
them, and there is some hope of cap
turing them
The point at which the train was
stopped was just at the foot Of the
Clay ton noun tains. about two miles
east OF the place at which an east
bound train was robbed few years
apO.

was presided over by Mrs. J. N. Grouse,
president of the kindergarten associa-
ton. Almost every state Of the union
and several territories were represented.
The range of subjects discussed was
wide one and included about everything
from the subtle effects of prenatal in
huence upon the baby mind TO the del
eterious effects of candy between meals
upon the baby stomach.
One doting mamma created sensation
by declaring that she put her baby in a
bag at night, but the sensation died out
when she explained that the bag was
simply used for the purpose Of prevent
ing the youngster from kicking of his
clothes and acquiring a bad attack Of
the ever musical collie Another mother
said that her 6-year-old boy had broken
up about everything in the house except
the kitchen range, which he was still
at work on. and she wanted TO know If
any girl could be such a terror" as
that boy. 'Or is a boy more Of an ami
NAL than girl7'' she asked
As there were 700 women and only
about dozen scared men in the hall,
the convocation found no difficulty in ar
irving at the conclusion that not only
boys of 9, but boys of from to so, are
somehow nearer to primitive nature
than are girls and women
DR.. Norman Bridge caused a hutter
in motherlv hearts by declaring the
somewhat iconoc1astic doctrine that
fruit was not good for growing children
and that candy was better. DIR. w. w.
Jaggard, a specialist in gynecology, also
made the interesting statement that 1t
was impossible for woman to inlu-
ence the character and appearance Of
her child before birth, save by proper
attention to hygienic rules Among the
interested spectators at the convention
