IN AN AWKWARD BOX.

IN An AWKWARD BOX.
Very interesting reading are the
comments of the anti-Quay newspa-
pers in Pennsylvania, made a few
days before the meeting of the con-
vention, when they were still in the
biuffing stage. The Philadelphia
Press, which assumed the anti-Quay
leadership, announced on Monday Of
this week that the friends of Gov.
Hastings had won their fight. 1.-THE
only question remaining" it said,
sis whether this unnistakable ma
jority can be overturned by usurpa-
ton, bulldozing, bribery or other
desperate or INSCRIPTIONS means"
Only by methods such as these, it
was convinced, could the combina-
ton be beaten. Through columns
Of indignant comment it declared
that the independent Republican vot-
ers Of the state would not submit to
the practices by which alone Mr..
had announced, it said, their deter
minatiOn to unseat elected delegates
and put fraudulent claimants in
their places. And this policy, it de-
clared, would be confronted by the
circumstances of those who had made
up their minds that the Quay pro-
gramme, if carried out, would in
yolve disruption and disaster" All
of this vigorous warfare for the
rights of man was to be carried on
under the lead Of Chairman Gilkeson.
This was on Monday. On Wednes-
day of the same week the conven-
ton was held. Mr.. Quay secured the
support of a majority Of uncon-
tested delegates. How he managed
to accomplish it is not for US to in
quire The mazes of Pennsylvania
politics are many and dark, and
there is not a labyrinth OF them
that Mr.. Quay has not trodden in
the past. There is not a device for
overthrowing the will of the people
or for bending it to his private inter-
est with WHICH he is not familiar.
He accomplished that which the op-
posite side declared could be ac-
complished only by f'bulldozing,
bribery, or other INSCRIPTIONS
means" o where was Roderick
then? Chairman Gilkeson, whom
Mr.. Quay sought to depose that he
might become his successor, and
who was to lead the clans of the
Keystone state in their revolt against
their iron boss, arose in the conven-
ton and himself placed Mr.. Quay
in nomination for the craftsmanship
Of the state committee.
It is not from Democratic sources
| that we obtain accurate informa-
| ton of the character and issues of
the contest in Pennsylvania and Of
the methods by which victory was
won. The witnesses are Repub-,
Iicans, and the strife was entirely in
that party's ranks. 1t has ended
as those who knew the man, who
had taken the measure of Repub-
licanism in a state sodden with cor
| ruption and perverted from all right
moral standards by the avarice of
| protectionisnl, knew that it must. It
is for the defeated faction in that
state, and for the Republicans of
other states who lay claim to indie
! pendence of thought and manliness
| Of action, to explain the surrender
| of their organization to a man justly
detested as a typical representative
of all that is worst in political meth
DDS and in the misuse of political
| power.

Mr.. Hodgson, of New Orleans, and
his wife have been doing Europe on
their wheels and taking especial note
Of the roads and their construction.
He says that the principle which
seems to be followed in the building
of roads is, first, a proper founda-
ton, made hard by drainage. Then
there is placed a layer of broken
stone, and the top surface is usually
made of small stones, which are watt
cred and rolled by immense stone
rollers, until the surface is as solid
as a rock and smooth as possible.
The Improvement in the machines

How much Of the harmony that
was patched up in the Pennsylvania
Republican state convention was due
to the discovery by the two factions
that the war was too expensive? A
day or two before the convention
Quay charged his opponents with
buying his delegates at all the way
from $500 to $4,000 apiece, and the
Hastings combine charged the Quay
ties with corrupting their delegates
with a flood of money" Did they
conclude that it was cheaper to get
together?

MISS FLAGLER HELD.

 tiOn of the Grand JurY.

She Furnishes 91O, 900 Bail to Await the Ac.
 tiOn'Of the Grand Jury.
 WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-Miss Elizabeth Flagler, who shot and killed Ernest Green few days ago, surrendered herself in the district criminal court and was released on $10 900 bail to wait the action of the grand jury. Her bondsmen are John Cassell, a wealthy real estate broker. and General Robert McFeely, ex-commissary general, United States army.
 It is stated that this action is in accord. ance with an agreement made by the pros. ecutiOn and the defense immediately fol lowing the verdict of the coroner's jury. According to the story, Assistant District Attorney Taggart told Miss Flagler's counsel that the effect of the verdict was to hold her for manslaughter, and that the case would accordingly go to the grand jury immediately upon its assembling in the autumn.
 Her counsel responded that she was in no condition to appear before the court, physical condition would permit.
 The indignation meeting of the colored people called for last night to take action on the killing of Ernest Green, a colored boy, by Miss Flagler miscarried owing to a prevailing sentiment among the colored people that nothing should be done pend ing action by the grand jury. When the meeting was called to order, there were only 2S persons in attendance. The meet ing adjourned without action after a statement by the pastor of the church on behalf of the boys father that he believed justice would be done by the courts and asking that no public action be taken at the present time.

Loyerly Platitudes,

A beautiful young lady was walking round suburban garden one evening, arm ill arm with a young man, into whose eyes she sweetly smiled.
 ''It is a lovely evening"" said the fair one.
 "Yes," replied the attendant.
 ''It was lovely evening yesterday" said the beautiful girl as they came round again,
 "Yes," meekly answered the young man, evidently at loss what to say.
 They came round third time, and it was his turn now.
 'I hope it will be a lovely evening tomorrow evening"" said he.
 "So do l." said she. .-Philadelphi Press.

TRUcE AT SPRING vALLEY.
Miners Resolve to Let the Negroes Come
 Rack to Town.


 SPRING VALLEY, Ills, Aug. S,-State troops for the present. at least will not be ordered to this turbulent town. Peace has been declared This was brought about through the efforts of Colonel Hugh K. Bayle, assistant adjutant general, sent here by Governor Altgeld. Colonel Bayle was met at the hotel by Sheriff Clark, Judge Trimble and other officials and n committee of the citizens. A short con ference was held, in which Colonel Bayle outlined the policy of Governor Altgeld regarding the present trouble.
 Colonel Bayle was then informed that the miners were to hold a mass meeting on the public square, at which the follow ing resolutions were to be presented fol adoption:
 ''Whereas, A race conflict has taken place in this city within the last few days, resulting in no loss of life, but in serious hardships and inconvenience to a section of this community;
 Resolved, That we, the miners oi Spring Valley, in mass meeting assem- bled, declare it to be our belief that all men, regardless of race, color or creed, are born with tho same equal rights and should enjoy the same opportunities in the pur- suit of their happiness.
 Resolved, That we denounce any at tempt at the suppreSslng Of these rights as unjust and barbarous and pledge our selves to maintain law and order as far as lies in our power.
 Resolved, That we are ready now to resume work, providing the Spring Valley Coal company is ready to start it's mines. "
 At the appointed hour about 600 miners assembled in the public square at a mase meeting. It was curious gathering. Every nation in eastern and southern Flu rope was represented. Every motion that was made and every speech had to be re- peated at least six times and each time in q different language.
 The vote on the resolutions was about tic, but the chairman declared it car. ried. The meeting then adjourned. Not withstanding the miners resolution, it is generally believed that if the negroes re, turn to work there will be trouble.

SILVER KNOCKED OUT.
Free Coinage Men Defeated at the Tow
 Democratic State Convention.

G0lnNK0 noI0AE80 x0I0
 Democratic State Convention.
 RESERVATIONS, Ia, Aug. s.-One of the most notable state conventions in this territory of the Iowa Democracy closed here. Since Monday there had been Q bit ter strife between the two opposing ele- ments in the party-one contending for ticket and platform on "sound money" basis; the other clamoring for free coin Age without waiting for an international agreement. From start to finish the white metal contingency did nearly all the talk ing on the street, in hotel lobbies, at va- rious headquarters, in committee TSoms, cauouses and finally on the floor of the convention room.
 By an apparently fortuitous incident the silver men had fine chance to ex- ploit their views in the convention hall from the fact that the resolutions commit tee got into wrangle on the financial plank that kept them in the committee room for several hours, the currency reso- lutions being overhauled and reconstruct ed two or three times before an agreement was reached and the majority making persistent efforts to divert the introduc- tion of the minority report. During this interval the convention did nothing but listen to free silver speeches by radical white metal champions.
 The opponents of free silver preserved silence except that Cato Sells made a short talk of a conciliatory character. The con- troversy grew warm and bitter, and when the minority report favoring free coinage was introduced another prolonged silver discussion was precipitated, and for awhile the proceedings were tumultuous.
 The final roll call on the resolutions showed the white metal crowd defeated by vote of 65115 to 42o15. A mighty shout, mingled with groanS, misses and anath- emaS, followed the announcement of the result. A large number of free silver dele. gates immediately left the hall, not wait ing for nominations.
 The state ticket was then nominated as follows: For governor, Judge W. I. Babb, Mount Pleasant; lieutenant governor. ex- Governor s. L. Bestow, Charlton; super intendent of public instruction, Lyman B. Parshall, Maquokota; railroad com missioner, Colonel George James, Du- buque; supreme judge, Senator Thomas G. Harper, Des Moines.
 Judge Babb made brief speech of ac- ceptance, in which he said he only accept ed because of the repeated urging and his devotion to the party and his interest in the state in which he was born and raised. He said the differences existing in the l party as developed in this convention l were in regard to details rather than to great principles involved in financial and other leading issues, which should be left | to legislation.
 It is understood that Bestow will not accept the lieutenant govcrnorship nomi. nation. He is a strong free coinage man, and it is said that he was chosen in hope ! of conciliating the silver people. He says he cannot consistently run on so strong a ''sound money" platform.

Tn . Breton Church.

The church, one finds, is here 8 very live thing in the midst of the life about it. It is never empty. It is full of tho faint smell of incense and the pungency of continual occupation. Sabots chatter in and out, children come and go with sudden, nasty genufections; old women sit in the corners or tell their beads be- fore the altars; the lights flicker, and the tall plaster figures look down gra- ciously smiling or gaze upward in a rapturous adoration. They are conven- tionally young and round fleshed and radiant in their tenderly colored robes and quaint contrasting gauds of crown and necklet and pendent votive hearts {; conventional symbols of conventions and stiffiy beautiful with beauty that is itself a tradition, beauty that is a rubric and an article of the faith, and Q lingering small acceptance from the far days of a facile content in things re- ligious.
 Then the church fills with a swarm of white caps which lift themselves strangely into snowy wings and crests. so that one may pick out the women of the different pays, and mems voices chant sonorously, and the full rigged model ships, hanging in the chancel and before the Mary altar, vibrate and swing softly to, and fro at the opening and shutting of doors, Those who have hung them there have long been dead, but there are faces in the crowd beneath that are raised toward them, and eyes that grow dim--too dim to see the dust of years that blackens the rigging, too dim to see anything but that more dis tant ship that is away at the Banks or at Iceland, in tho fear of storms and the strange confusion of the fogs, and that will surely come back, unless-.t Etoile de h Mer, send us our men home from the sea l''--Maelnillan's Magazina:
