Having No business Ready, the Free silver
Coinage Convention ut Washington LIS

Washington, Aug. 5.-The silver
Democrats continued their conference
at the Metropolitan Hotel at 10 O'Clock
to-day. The committee on resolutions
and programme being unable to report
when the meeting was first called to
order, it was suggested the conference
should listen to speeches of those
present.
E. F. Cochran, editor of the st.
Joseph, Mo-, Gazette addressed
the conference. He said it seemed
anomalous that meeting such as the
present should be called, for he knew
of no doctrine of the party which was
not in consonance with the purposes
of the conference.
Representative Neill OF Arkansas
announced his entire sympathy with
the objects of the present conference.
He wanted to see the free coinage Of
silver provided for at the next session,
regardless of the position of the dis
tinguished citizen at the other end of
the avenue" which sentiment was
loudly applauded.
Elk Representative Fithian of Illinois
denied that the free silver sentiment
was dying out in that State He said
that all the Democratic farmers and
so per cent of the Democrats in bust
ness in the State were silver men.
He declared that Illinois would send a
delegation to the next national conven-
ton, favorable for free coinage at 16

tinent, which probably extended over
an area of $780, 600 square miles, or
about twice the size OF Europe, there
should not be found animal life hither-

results of this expedition had been few,
but where already so many important
facts demanded further research, the
arguments plainly proved that the time
was ripe and that further delay of a
scientific expedition to South Victoria
Continent could scarcely be justified.

There wasn't sign of an apple.
Except a small dish of them cooked,
And they were as sour as sour can be.
No matter how tempting they looked,
As to festive and frolicsome porkers,

And weighed, know, over ton.

The Victims of n yicions Dog Return from
tho Pasteur 1nstitute--An Well and
Highly Pleased.
Edith and Paul Richter, James Mar
tin, George Grissom, Bertha Hughes,
William Patton and the colored man
Harris returned Wednesday afternoon
from New York where they have been
undergoing treatment at the Pasteur
Institute. Anton, the other patient,
who went on before the rest, returned
on Saturday.
Mrs. Martin, Mrs. Grissom and Mrs.
Hughes were with the children. Mrs.
Martin was seen on Thursday by a
reporter OF EVERY Evening, at her
home, No. sos Church street She
said that all the patients had been
cured, and no further trouble is antici-
pated, She was extremely gratiiied
over the treatment received in New
York and says her son, little fellow
about years old, was so well pleased
that he wanted to stay longer.
Mrs. Martin thinks the institute ie
great place. While she was there she
was brought into contact with
patients from all over the country,
many wealthy people from the West
being among the number. She stated
also that dogs, mice, rabbits and other
animals were being treated when she
left. One little girl was taken there a
few days ago suffering from the bite OF
the spider. The doctor who had been
treating the child wanted to amputate
the hand, but the physicians at the in
stitute said there was no need for such
a thing and they would save the hand.
The parents of the other children who
were treated were also pleased with
the treatment, and they will always re
member the visit.

ORGANIZE, oRGANIzEi

There is not a city in the southwest with greater natural resources trlbu- tary than Nogales. With the great mineral, agricultural and pastoral re- sources at her door Nogales should be and will be one of the most important towns between the Rio Grande and the Pacific ocean To utilize all those vast resources command them, and make them conducive to her greatness NOgales should organize for intelligent work. Her business men are enterprisng, and individually their work is effective; but the great est results will be attained by organ ized, intelligent and regular effort. It is such organization which has done so much for Fl Paso, for Albuquerque, for Phoenix.
 Take. for instance the Commercial Club at Albuquerque. Since the bu- siness men of that city organized into that association the name and fame of Albuquerque have spread far and
 wide. her business and population have trebed and to the intelligent, concentrated effort of the club alone is due the investment in that city ol at least one and one-half millions oi dollars. From small beginning the l Commercial Club of Albuquerque has
 grown to powerful body, owning one
 of the finest structures in the city
 that, with the ground on which II
 stands, cost sl25,00O, owns greal
 deal of other real estate, and has
 surplus of S200, ,000 in cash. The mem
 befs of the club hold frequent and re
 eular meetings in which are discussed
 measures for the advantage of Al0u
 auerqne, and discussion of such mea sures always leads to action whicl f ends in aggrandizement of the place
