rlied WOrshiners.

A lunatic with a gun cleared out nearly
all the worshipers in the First Unitarian
Church at Oakland. Cal. Sunday night.
The mailman, who gave the name of Lewis
Porter, went into the church as soon as
service commenced and took a seat along
side the aisle, about half way toward the
altar. His nervous manner and peculiar
actions engaged the attention Of several
members of the congregation from the first.
At the conclusion of the hymn the lunatic
arose from a seat and walked down the
aisle until he reached the altar. As he
walked down he said I'm a loud voice: This
thing Is all farce. 1t is a humbug Now
l want to have my say, and 1t won't be well
for anybody to attempt to stop me-"
AS Porter finished speaking he drew a
revolver. but was quickly disarmed, The
lunatic was turned over to a policeman and
the services were continued.

''Auld Lang Syne."
Among the oratory> of the conven-

other things, he SAID:
II Is sometimes said We are here to elect Nc
Kiniey. Our free-silver friends took that job
out Of our hands. Great laughter end cheers.)
We elected democratic president on the two
great democratic economical principles Of free
trade and sound money in 1892 Our free-silver
friends ct once attempted to destroy the demo-
cratic party. / saw it stated the other day
that they had the scalps OF their
enemies hanging ut their belts. They
are mistaken. They have the scalps
OF their friends. (Renewed laughter and
cheers.) They disregarded the admonitions of
Cleveland. and a republican governor reigns In
New York where We used to have democratic
governor. They would not believe in sound
money, and Maryland sends republican SEN
ntor to sit with Arthur p. German, and a re-
publican governor sits In the capitol ut Annap-
oils They rejected the counsels OF the most
lovely OF American statesmen. William L. Will
son. of West Virginia, and Mr.. Elkins sits in
the United States senate. They divided the
democratic party In Ohio, and Foraker takes
the place OF that long line OF democratic states
men ending with Thurman and Pendeton.
They disregarded the teachings Of Carlisle
(cheers) and we have republican governor in
the state of Kentucky. They pardoned the an
arehists in the great state OF Illinois and every
democratic congressman walked the plank at
the next election. There has not been the
ghost of y chance 10 elect democratic presi-
dent since 1894, because OF free silver. There
fore, when they charge US with trying to elect
Mckiniey. charge back that they have done
that job for US much more skiifuiiy. tAppiause

prevent the election OF the Chicago ticket un-
der the pretense that il Is demcegatic ticket.
