MARYLAND REPUBLICANS.
A Ticket Nominated at the State Con-
ventiOn Yesterday.

CAMBRIDGE, Md, Aug. 15.-The Re-
publican State Convention met at noon
today and nominated the following
ticket:
For Governor, Lloyd Lowndes; for
Attorney General, Harry NJ. Clabaugh;
for Comptroller, L. E. H. Dennis.
The platform is confined to State issues,
and opens with a demand for a reassess-
ment of property.
Hon. Lloyd Lowndes, the nominee for
Governor, is extensively interested in
the commercial affairs of Maryland. He
was educated as lawyer but took up
mercantile pursuits and is now at the
head of a number of banks, mining COM
panies, etc., at Baltimore and Oumber-
land. He served in the 'Forty-third Con
gress as a strong supporter of the Grant
administration. While in Congress he
voted against the civil rights bin on the
ground that it was unconstitutional.
Should this be used against him with
colored voters, pamphlet is in readi-
ness, showing that Mr.. Lowndes opposi-
tion was to the form of the law and not
to its spirit, and the United State Su-
preme court subsequently affirmed this
position.

This is the established home of the

nacle here several years ago. The col
lege is progressing well under the man
agement of President Will L. Abernethy,

his life for the college, and the confer
ence will propose plan for a granite
monument to be erected on the campus
in front of the main college building.
The sermon at II a. M, was by DR..
Reagan, of Weaverville. 1t was a strong
one, and showed in every sentence the
clear mind and warm heart, the intense
charity and jolly good nature of the
Bishop" of the mountains. 1t was an
eloquent appeal for moderation and
charity IN politics, religion and society.
President Williams preached at 4 p.
m, on the Spiritual Warfare" He
said we must put on the whole armor.
His text was figure from the battle
harness of the Romans. How much
more necessary that we engage with a
foe whose keen vision detects every open
joint in our armor. 1t was an earnest
plea for thorough conservation, and was
well received. Rev. Mr.. Mann preached
tonight.

CORBErT QUIETLY MARRIED.
And Pretty Vera StanwOOd is the Pugi-
lists Bride.
he News and Observer.

ASBURY PARK, N. j., Aug. 15.-There
was quite civil marriage here to day of
which the principals were Champion
James j. Corbett, and Jesse Taylor, Of
Omaha, better known as "Vera Stan
wood, the name under which she figured
as co respondent in the recent suit for
the divorce which was granted to Mrs.
Ollie Lake Corbett.
So quietly had Oorbett's intention been
kept that not even his manager and ira
Yelling companion, VIM. A. Brady, knew
that he intended matrimony so soon, nor
were any of his other friends in sporting
circles appraised of the event.
Justice of the Peace John A. Bor-
den entered the Corbett cottage at
noon, for the Catholic church, of which
Corbett is a communicate, does not
sanction the marriage rite for a di-
vorced person. He found waiting in
the parlor, j. F. Workman, a real estate
dealer of Asbury Park; P. F. Buckalow,
of Jersey City, paymaster of the Oonsol-
idated Traction Company; Joseph Cor
bett, the brother of the champion, who
assisted him in the recent unpleasantries
with Fitzsimmons; Alice Brown, the co.,
ored cook, and two newspaper men.
After Justice Borden had pronounced
them man and wife, Corbett threw his
arms around his wife's neck and kissed
her heartily two or three times. Con-
gratulations followed The couple left
an hour afterwards. They took a train
for Buffalo and Niagara Falls, where
they will stay for ten days, after which
Corbett will rel urn, and begin training
for his match with Fitzsimmons.
1t would have been illegal for the pair
TO marry in New York, for the decree of
divorce made in that State barred the
pugilist from re.marryiDg in the life
time of his first wife. Legal authorities
say they would not be recognized by the
law as man and wife while living in New
York. In the marriage certificate the
residence of both parties is given as
Asbury Park.

SALISBURY, n. O., Aug. u


In an interview with Hon. Lee S.
0yerman this afternoon regarding the
lease of the North Carolina Railroad, he
said that at meeting of the directors
tomorrow at Burlington the question of
the lease will be discussed. 81 cannot
say whether the road will be leased or
not" he said. "If the Southern Rail
road Company and the board Of direc-
tors can agree upon terms the road will
probably be leased"
Your correspondent was fortunate in
the interview with Mr.. Overman. When
called upon, Mr.. Overman was writing
the report of the committee to be made
to the board tomorrow, and was free to
talk upon the subject.
As to Mr.. Allison's statement at Con
cord Wednesday, Mr.. Overman said,
There has been nothing definite agreed
upon. The board meets tomorrow to
hear the report of the committee appoint
ed at the meeting held in Greensboro,
July 18th to confer with Col. Andrews in
regard to the new lease, he (Col. An
drews) having submitted proposition to
lease the road at six and half per
cent on capital stock of four
million dollars for ninety nine
years. That proposition" said Mr..
Overman, twill not be accepted, and
there will probably be another PROPOSE
ton submitted. The Board of Directors
as yet have taken no action whatever in
regard to the lease, except to appoint
this committee. What the board will do
tomorrow, am unable to say. The
board favors leasing the road at this time
if favorable terms can be secured
Mr. 0verman himself favors leasing
the road, and while not sure what the
directors will do, seems to be of the
opinion that the lease will be made.

to surrender themselves more read
lily to hypnotic influence.
The death Of the unfortunate Tril-
by, striking and pathetic as it is,
takes place under impossible condi-
tons. Though it may be possible for
hypnotic suggestion to be exercised
at conSidera BILE distance, and
though it may not be necessary for
the suggester to be in the Immediate
vicinity of the subject, yet the hyp-
motto power emanates from a living
mind. With the death of Svengah
his weird power died also. Trilby's
final trance could never have been
induced by a mere material thing
like a portrait. If willing and
anxious to do so, she might, perhaps,
thus hypnotic herself, but there is
no ground for such an assumption.
Upon my recent trip abroad 1 was
assured by the highest living author
tiles that the scientific employment
OF hypnotism was being gradually
clrcumScribed to a limited area of
nervous disorders, and that the con-
Vlctlon was general that the power
was often employed to the injury
OF the subject. 1t is felt, therefore
that nothing should be done to en-
courage its widespread employment.
