temporary organization was made perman-

about to-day's convention. The Office Of

in speech-making and the organization Of
a convention to name him. George II.

first ballot, but il is alleged that should
the Hardin men fail TO win on the initial
ballot they are beaten. In any case the
aspect tonight. looked at from an entire
~ impartial standpoint, is not bright for
the silver men.
Still, many changes may be made be-
fore tomorrow, and those who have the
interests of the white metal at heart
have by no means given up the fight. They
are more hopeful of victory than ever to-
night Senator J. c. S. Blackburn, whose
political career will be for awhile at least
interrupted should free silver fan in the
coming battle, is here and working hard.
His most formidable opponent, James b..
McCreary, who stands committed for
gold, as Mr.. Blackburn does for silver,
is straining every nerve to have gold
plank In the platform. Should he sue
coed he will in all probability be the next
Senator from Kentucky.
There are other candidates for the
place on a gold platform, but McCreary
is far in the lead of all.
As between Clay and Hardin for the
nomination for governor it looks at a
late hour tonight as If the Clay men had
slightly the better of the situation.

TRIUMPH FOR A "NEw WOMAN"
She Whipped Her Husband Into
washing and Ironing.

WubnAmE anu
From the New York Times.
Mrs. Catherine MeIlvaine Of So Columbus
avenue. decidedly new woman" was IN
the Yorkville police court yesterday as
complainant against her husband. Alexan-
der McIlvaine. who had refused to take his
place at the stationary tubs and wash the
family linen. McIlvaine was technically
accused of non-support and cruelty, but it
was shown that it was really old-fash-
Toned ideas as to women's household du-
ties that got him into trouble.
Mrs. Mcllvaine keeps newsstand at So
Columbus avenue and improves her OPP
portunity to become acquainted with all
the modern progressive movements. She
reads all the so-called ''Womens Pages"
and has become a womans rights woman
of the most advanced type. She has come
to believe that mans proper sphere is in
the kitchen and nursery, and womans on
the lecture platform and the stock ex-
change, but she has been unable, in spite
of many midnight arguments, to convert
her husband to her opinions.
Mrs. McIlvaine decided several days ago
to give her husband a practical illustra-
tion Of her theories, so she ordered him to
set to work at the washtubs. McIlvaine
rebelled, but he is much smaller in stature
than his wife, and Mrs. McIlvaine notified
him that she would be Obliged to punish
him if he refused. AS he persisted in de-
claring the independence of his sex. Mrs
McIlvaine took a big snake whip from
closet, and dashed him across the back.
MeIlvaine howled, but his wife threatened
to ply the whip again if he did not obey
Reluctantly, but trembling with fear and
terror McIlvaine started In to carry out
his wifes orders, and remained at the tub
until everything had been wrung out and
hung mp TO dry.
McIlvaine was then allowed to go out in
the street and meet his companions but
his task was not finished. Mrs. McIlvaine.
the following morning, notified him that he
must iron the clothes he had washed
He again showed a disposition TO rebel
and again Mrs. McIlvaine argued the case
with the whip until his shoulders were
black and blue. and he was subdued. She
stood by him while he worked at the IRON
ing table, and had no pity for him when
he scorehed his fingers. but urged him on
with light touchings of the lash. Nell
vaine got along very well under his wife S
tutorship, and when he completed the
days work she told him she was salts
lied that in future he could do the family
washing and ironing, and save the ex-
pense of a woman.
McIlVaihe has since then fought shy OF
his wife, and, because of his neglect to ap-
pear at the house when work was to be
done, Mrs. McIlvaine had him arrested.
In reeounting her troubles with her OBJ
stinate husband Mrs McIlvaine said to
Justice Ryan:
Il just made up my mind I'd get some
good out o. him"
Justice Ryan manifested his sympathy
for McIlvaine by sending him for a month
to the island.

Fever and Immuned.
Health Officer DR.. w. f. Drummer has
received authority from Surgeon General
Wyman Of the Marine Hospital Service
to employ three physicians who are inn

chances are that he will not reply at all.
Every one who has spent much time
upon the frontier has heard of the re-
markable faculty Of Dolores Sanchez,
the famous trailer of New Mexico and
Southern Arizona. So eminent authori-
ty as Gen. Nelson A. Miles, who has had
unusual personal knowledge of the work
of trailers and scouts, is quoted as say
ing that some of Sanchez's accomplish
ments are more than extraordinary, and
that his powers bore on the mythical.
Gen. Ruger tells the following story of
an experience with this remarkable man to
show the skill of an expert scout: Il was
once in pursuit of a lot of Comanches,
who had been followed, scattered, and
the trail abandoned by company Of So
called Texas Rangers. On the eighth day
after the scattering Sanchez found the
trail from a single shod horse. When we
were fairly into the rough, rocky Guada-
loupe mountains he stopped, dismounted
and picked up from the foot of tree
the four shoes Of the horse ridden by the
with grim smile he handed the shoes
to me and, said that the Indian had tried
to hide the trail. For six days we Jour
neyed over the toughest mountains turn
ing and twisting in the most objectless
way, not a man in the whole command be-
ing able to discover, sometimes for hours,
a single mark by which Sanchez might di-
rect himself. Sometimes 1 lost patience
and demanded that he show me what he
was following POGO tempo pretty SOON,
he would abstraetedly answer, and, in a
longer or shorter time, show me the clear
cut footprints of the horse In the soft bank
of a mountain stream or point with his
long whipping stick to some other most
unmistakable sign. Sanchez led us. fol-
lowing the devious windings of this trail,
for over $50 miles, and, only three or four
times dismounting so as to more closely
examine the ground, he finally brought
me to where the Indians had reunited.n

ETHICS OF PIE EATING.

COPPER STOCKS.

The recent rise in copper stocks is at
tributed to the multifarious uses that
copper is now being put to-more par
ticularly copper wire. In the construc-
ton OF electric railroads, long distance
and local telephones, telegraph, etc.,
the use OF copper wire has acquired an
enormous consumption and is steadily
increasing. The wire works all through
the country are reporting increased
business and are running full time and
extra hours to supply the demand.
With the present outlook in the electri.
cal line, which is still in its infancy,
can anyone wonder at the advance in
copper and copper stocks, or that the
owners OF the same are corresponding.

Largest Mississippi Catfish.

The largest Mississippi river catfish, Or
bullhead, ever captured of which accurate
record was kept fell into the tolls of some
negro fishermen at APPOINT two miles below
Cairo, Ills, in the summer of 1890. 1t
was known in the neighborhood that the
monster was "using" in a certain bayou
for several months before his capture was
finally effected, and different persons had
tried to shoot the giant with their squirrel
rifles, knowing that 1t would be useless to
attempt to ''swing him in" with the regu-
lation hook and line. At last nature as
sisted In the work of capture. Immense
preparations were made for the freshet
which was known to be coming down the
river, and when "Whale bayou" as the
home of the giant "cat" was known, was
flooded watchful fishermen took it upon
themselves to see that the whale was
carried upon the tide out into an adjoin-
ing marsh. When the waters receded from
the swamp, the big fish was grounded
among the weeds and marsh willows and
easily captured. After being dressed for
the market, and before the head was re-
moved, he was weighed and found to tip
the beam at exactly 312 pounds, being 19as
pounds heavier than the famous "New
Orleans whale" which was captured in
1855. I have never seen figures on the
length Of this big Cairo fish, but the data
from which the above was compiled says
that she was square up ii inches between

the Americans escaping. The attack
was premeditated and carefully
planned, while the Chinese troops were
passive in the matter and were cogni-
zant of it. The fact that the foreign

is proved by the numerous outrages
that have taken place within the last
twenty years, the open hostility on the
part of native officials, and shielding OF
the criminals perpetrating the same.
It is to be hoped ..that the leaders OF
these atrocities will be taught lesson
in humanity they will not forget. Pro-

LABOR EAY.

The success OF yesterdays labor holi-
day has placed that day solidly in the
column of national holidays. 1t was
such pronounced success that even
that carping critic of everything with
q suspicion of popular wish about it,
is forced to conclude that the people
did notice the day as peculiarly their
own, although on Sunday il sourly
predicted that it would be fiat failure.
The arrangements we're made in a
manner 80 simple and without the pro-
fessional blare of trumpets, that every
one was plaesed and surprised at 80 easy
an accomplishment, and the future
course of the labor organizations is
thus marked out for them.

personal selnsdness- OF these marked
the individual and the crowd yesterday.
Seventy-fve thousand people at Cres.

the greatest appreciation Of any holi.

city so apportioned shall, if the number OF

CONSOLIDATION OF ELECTRIC AND LOCO
MOTIVE COMPANIES.

The consolidation OF the Westing-
house Electric Company and the Bald
win Locomotive Works is simply en-
phasizing the fact that coming events
casts their shadows before, or, in other
words, the locomotive company sees
the necessity in the near future OF being
prepared for what undoubtedly must
take place, the applying OF electricity
TO long distance electric travel and
electric locomotives. The Westing-
house system does away with the un-
derground and the overhead trolley by
the use of electric motors, making the
electric current available only at the
instant of contact with the motor. The
managers of the Manhattan Railroad
(elevated) are testing this system and
if found to be satisfactory it will be
adopted permanently. This will un-
doubtedly revolutionize electric travel
and prove the foresight OF the directors
of these corporations combining.
