One of the amusing incidents OF the
Republican campaign for that nomi-
nation is the trotting out at this late
day, when Mckinley looks sure win
ner, of Reeds war record, which. by
the way, was not very sanguinary.
He was acting Assistant Paymaster
in the navy from April. 1864, to No
vember. 1865, and was attached to the
Mississippi squadron. The amusing
part of the record is the attempt to
credit Reed with the achievements of
that sqadron, which he had about as
much to do with directing as one of
the powder monkeys"

ous."
Question was called for and an at
tempt made to shut out John Wiley.
Wiley, however, mounted the plat
form and gave the convention an elo-
quent and able exposition of the silver
question. He took a high moral
standpoint, the point of right, not OF
politics. He showed that regardless
of three years CT McKinley's high pro-
lection, the government found it
necessary to issue bonds, all because
OF the vicious effect of the gold sys-
tenn.
"Is it any wonder that the silver
dollars in the treasury are not paid
out when gold is presented and a re-
quest of exchange made and refused.
"I am in favor of protecting the
wool on the back of the sheep, am
also in favor of protecting the miner.
l am tired of seeing the fawning
sycophancy to the money shark and
money lender, 1 am tired of seeing
people dancing attendance on these
people"
He made point after point; he
dealt in no sophistry, but gave the
convention the truth straight, which
seemed entirely out out of place.
"Isn't the silver dollar legal tender%
interrupted Governor McGraw.
at is not" roared Mr.. Wiley.
"Why not?"
Because it is not good when other
wise stipulated in your gold contracts"
was the quick response. This settled
the Governor.
There was a wrangle about time,
Wiley won and said, 81 am glad to
plead the case OF the people vs. plu-
tocracy."
An attempt was made to adopt the
Ohio platform, but " straddle, straddle"
went up on all sides and it was lost by
3 vote OF 178 to 213. After stamping
itself as the friend of the rich and
enemy of the poor, the convention ad-
journed at 7 40 O'Clock.

SOLEMN JERUSALEM.
Trade and Commerce Are Confined
90 Life,s Necessities.

Trade ana Commerce Are Confined
20 Life,s Necessisaes.
Jerusalem is a city OF surprises. 1t
is, apart from its sacred associations,
an intensely interesting spot, even to
travellers who are already saturated
with the hitherto unfamiliar and sur
prising charms of Cairo, Athens and
Constantinople. It's size can best be |
expressed by the statement that the
journey round the outside of its walls
may be made by an ordinarily rapid
walker in the space OF an hour.
Its houses are small, irregular in
shape, squalid and mean. It's streets,
if streets they can be called, are not
named or numbered; they are never
cleaned, and in many instances are
steep, crooked, narrow, roughly paved
and they are vaulted over by the build
ings on each side of them. Never
pair of wheels traverse them, and rarely
is horse or donkey seen within the
walls.
The halt, the MANNED and the blind
the leprous and the wretchedly poor
form the great bulk of the population
OF Jerusalem, and, with the single ex.
ception OF the Hebrews, they are per-
sistent and clamorous beggars.
Trade and commerce seem to be con.
fined to the bare necessities OF life and
TO dealers in beads and crucifixes
There is but one hotel and one Turkish
merchant. who displays in his little
windowless, doorless shop small as
sortment Of silver charms, trinkets
and bric-a-brac to the gaze OF the
passer-by, and is almost the only shop
keeper who sells anything like luxuries
in the place. His customers, of course,
are the pilgrims who come to See, and
not TO worship. Jerusalem 10 unique
as city. Everything is serious and
solemn and severe.
1t has no clubs, no public houses, no
beer gardens, no concert halls, no thea
ters, no lecture rooms, no places OF
amusement OF any kind, no street
bands, no wandering musicians, no
wealthy or upper classes, no news
papers, no printing presses, no book
shopes, except one outside the walls
for the sale of Bibles, no cheerfulness,
no life. No one sings, no one sports,
no one laughs in Jerusalem; even the
children do not play.

For your Protection -Catarrh "Cures" or
Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not
a blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits of catarrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should be quick to allay
Inflammation and heal the membrane. Ely's
Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for
these troubles and contains no mercury
nor any injurious drug. Price, so cents.

my mind az watched the reflection Of the
princess In the mirror. Az she stood In
front OF the cabinet. her profile only was
visible. but In that way the perfection Of
the somber loveliness Of her features, the
contour Of her neck and shapely head and
her attitude and gestures formed a most
beautiful picture. which her occupation
gave an intensely tragic interest.
She seemed to pause, to hesitate for an
instant: she looked toward me, and passed
her hands before her eyes: then she seemed
to form sudden resolution. She took the
and dashed its contents over the floor, filled
