By the Associated Press
 HARRISBURG, Pa., Aug. 28.-Senator Quay has captured the permanent chairmanship of the convention, his motion that the committee on per. manent organization report the name of Governor Hastings for chairman be. ing adopted.
 Later-Senator Quay was unanimous ly elected chairman of the state con. vention.

 The platform adopted reaffirms the currency plank of the national conven ton of 1892 and thanks Senator Quay for his fight against the Wilson bill.

DEAD MAN FOUND.
The Body In a Gulch In the
 Mountains.
A Mystery in the ChiricahueS Thai Cochise County Officials VIII
 Try to Solve.

From the Tombstone Pro 'pector.
 Yesterday Si Bryant and Burt Cogs- we'll arrived in town and reported the finding of dead man in the Chiricahua mountains about two miles from the ranch of MT. Bryant, and who appar- ently had laid there dead for the past month or six weeks.
 The deceased WAS discovered in @ canyon, and when found was in bad state of decom position and cancellation due to the effects of long exposure to rain and heat, and being in 8 canyon evidences were plain his body had been immersed in water, and from the ap- pearance of the corpse it is supposed he must have been dead for a coneidera ble length of time. As no one has been missing therea bouts and he is not yet identified the matter remains a mystery.
 From Investigations made the man was evidently on horseback as one spur was on his foot; he was apparently an elderly man with slight moustache, Any one who knew him could readily identify the body from the fact that the right hand has either been deformed or crippled, all the fingers and thumb be- ing gone, with the exception of one finger : nd the stump of another. He had on a pair of new pants and also overalls, new pair of boots which had been little worn, the heels being of. No signs of wounds were noticed about the head but several holes in his shirt over the heart and stomach which may have been made with knife or dagger lends color to the theory that the man may have been murdered, although it was impossible to tell without closer examination whether such was the | case or not.
 No papers or any article was found on the remains by which they could be identified. His horse could not be | found and the supposition is the unfor- tunate man was murdered and robbed. Justice Alvord, who also acts in the capacity of coroner, left this morning in company with Sheriff Fly, Si Bryant and Burt Cogswell, for the scene and will hold an inquest over the remains, from which further information and probable cause of his death may be as- certained upon their return.

and she herself would keep the store open until the usual hour of closing. The other stores that agreed to close were not partial to the idea, for the Bee Hive would be benefited by getting the evening trade by their stores being closed.
 Rev. Vaughan, who circulated the petition, on several occasions made visits to Mrs. Winters to get her to change her mind in regards to closing, but she always put him off with the same excuse.
 The original petition has been in THE REPUBLICAN office for several days and last evening Rev. Vaughan came after it and took it to Mrs. Winters to get her ultimatum. She took decided stand in the matter by saying she would not close, and Rev. Vaughan in- formed her that the ublic would be in- formed of her decision through the medium of the press. He brought the petition back to this office, and it was noticed that the corner that contained her signature and agreement to have the clerks of duty at 6:30 o'clock was neatly cut out, but it was not in that condition when it left this office. The 6:30 closing movement is still being rigldly adhered 10 by all those who signed the agreement and an effort is being made to have the stores con- tinue to remain closed after camp meeting. The stores that are now re- maining closed will receive the patron age of the public while the Bee Hive will not be the gainer.
 Those who signed the petition were The Irvine company. Chapman Bros., Alkire Dry Goods company, The Globe, M. Jacobs & Co.,, H. s. Chandler Shoe company, The Hub, Greene the natter Doris Bros., Phoenix Grocery company Talbott & Hubbard, Dawson & Fish, D. W. Sparks, R. c. Luesley & Co.,, Vantilburg & Davison, D. H. Burtis H. J.

THE CAMPERS.
Interest Is Daily
 Manifested.
Miss Belle Cosner of Tempe Con- ducts the Shutdown or
 Grove Meeting.

The attendance yesterday was ex- ceptionally good, owing possibly to the cooler days in the past week, as we'll as the awakened interest of the people at large, in the good sermons delivered each day.
 At 80 the campers and few visl. tors met in the grove, or pavilion, for prayer and praise service which was led by Rev. E. H. Vaughan. He enters heartily in every service which adds to the good words spoken. and every one enjoys his addresses throughout.
 Just at II a. m. Rev. Wyankoop oi Tempe, arose and began the usual ser- vice by prayer and bible reading fol- lowed by a sermon of telling effect.
 The 2:30 services were conducted by Rev. MT. Sears, and assisted by Pre-. siding Elder Vaughan.
 The ladies' sundown or grove meeting was conducted by Miss Belle Cosner of Tempe.
 At the usual hour, 80. the evening services began with prayer and singing which WAS carried on thirty minutes before the officiating minister, Rev. Pearson, arose to begin his discourse. For forty minutes the speaker showed forth the beautiful love of God for hu- maDity. He said that man could not fully appreciate the mercy and rich. ness of this love because they felt SC unworthy and measuring from tha, standpoint it is impossible to receive such unbounded love for 80 little in re turn. The sermon was full of pleasing comparisons, bible truths and kindly advice which could not fail to find Judgement in every heart present. After the sermon was concluded Rev. Vaughan arose and requested the un. converted 10 come forward for prayers Several came and the usual prayers were offered.
 Rev Vaughan said last night that he was sorry to say the evening before some young ladies were very disrespec. ful, laughing and otherwise distur ping the services. They were waited on by a gentleman who requested silence. "However," says one good natured elder, If they are not here tonight when you need them, give them my love and tell them to come back again. Be it said that very seldom has this been said of anyone on the grounds and it is to be hoped nothing will occur again.
 Mrs. M. H. Williams and her niece, Mss Stewart, spent the day in camp yesterday.
 Miss Flora Kurtz was a visitor to campers as we'll as attendant on ser. wees last evening.
 Mrs. Will Doris and Miss Belle Will. son, made visit of day at the camp grounds.
 Mrs. Conelson attended the afternoon services.
 MT. E. E. Pascoe paid short visit te the camp and campers yesterday.
 Much interest was taken in the after noon services, and there were many un converted showed their earnestness ir seeking everlasting life. The meetingt at first were hindered by more or les: levity but it has turned favorably and now those who attend services leave their lighter thoughts in town.

The OnIy Method by which All Kinds Of

One of the greatest difficulties met
