High school Team Not Eligible.

W. G. Stuart of the Central High School
Athletic team, who wrote last week to the
Interscholastic Athletic Association regard
ing entries to their games next Saturday
at Columbia Oval. New York, received a
reply today that the constitution Of the
association restricts entries to members of
an association composed of at least two
schools. The Central High School boys
are. therefore, not eligible. Next year it is
hoped that a permanent organization will
be effected between the four schools, when
the boys will endeavor to send a large rep

At Washington, ID. c., Saturday, the In-
ternational Christian Endeavor Convention
taken up the deferred matter OF chosing the
seat Of the 1898 convention and it was settled
ut u prolonged session Of the board of trustees
Of the United Societies. A half dozen cities
were in competitor for the honor Nashville
had been in the lead from tho start, but tho
trustees were somewhat doubtful OF the
effect Of race prcjudices in the South upon
the convention. White and colorei dele
gates to the Christian Endeavor Conventions
have always int"rmingled freely in the
churches, tents and hotels OF cities wherever
the convention is held. This has received
full consideration from tho trustees and
and tho decision was made in favor of Nash
vile. The resolution cmbOdying the decision
reads Gs follows:

Senator Vest, of Missouri, was the
first delegate to ascend tho platform,
and nominated Bland. His mention
of BANDS name was followed by only
very slight demonstration of APP
plause. The only part of his speech
that stirred tho crowd was the closing
rhyme:

When the State of Georgia was

roarious. Mr.. Theodore +. Klutz. of
North Carolina, seconded the nominn-
ton of Mr.. Bryan. Mr.. Thos. j..

When Daniel took the chair he an
nounced no business except by unani-
nous consent. Rev. DR.. T. f. Green,
of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, offered prayer.
There was II great demonstration when
the Bland Club, with banners flowing,
entered the hall.
The New York delegates held q
caucus, fighting over the question
whether they should bolt the convention
after the adoption of the silver plank
or not. The proceedings of the con
vention were listless. Hogg, of Texas
who made strong plea for harmony
was we'll received. The gold men are
inclined to take their medicine more
peacefully. Hogg advised the dele
gates to meet in a spirit with intent tc

permission to address the convention

that they would not bolt, but tha
they would not vote on candidate.
The report of the committee on per

Mr.. Finley, Of Ohio, naming Senator
White, Of California. as permanent
president of the convention and Thos
F. Hogan, of Ohio, as permanent sec

gressive. Bryan had great ovation.
\ motion was made to lay on the
table both the motion for and against
the administration. He said to the
minority: You have already disturbed
our business. The man who workes
man as the man who goes upon the
board of trade and bets upon the
future. and the few financial magnates
of the world who in back room
corners the finances of the world. He
said that the pioneers of the West are
as worthy the support of this Conven-
tion as the magnates of the East
He drew comparison between JEFF
ferson and Hill and said he preferred
to stand by Jefferson. He says on our
platform the party will carry every
State. including Massachusetts. There
was great cheering AMI demonstrations
at the close of Bryan's speech, and
cries of nominate him." The band
struck up but couldn't be heard, it
simply could be seen going through the
motion of playing.
The vote on tho platform was or
dered after the Bryan demonstration
subsidized. The vote was on the adop-
tion of the amendment offered by Hill
to substitute the minority report for
that Of the majority, so far as the
financial plank goes. Hills motion was
voted down, noes G2G; ayes BOB.
Hills motion endorsing the present
Democratic administration was next
called. 1t was seen from the outset
that this motion was lost. The ad-
ministration was not endorsed, the
vote being 564 against it, to 361 for it..

Municipal La Dor Reform.

The City Council of Des Moines, Ia...
has adopted plan which will help fur
nlsh employment for a number Of
Workingmen, or, in other words, divide
up the opportunity for employment
among a greater number.
The plan adopted by the City Council
is to discharge all it's employees on pub
lie works and employ new force. At
ter this the force will be changed every
two weeks, thus giving others chance
to work. When the scheme was first
proposed it met with bitter opposition,
but the labor organizations are said to
have favored it ard pushed it's adop-
ton.
At the first thought the plan seems
rather unjust, especially so would it
undoubtedly appear to a man employed
full time on such work. However,
when one takes into consideration that
it is best for community that no man
be without opportunity to earn live
lihood, the plan meets with favorable
consideration. The putting Of the plan
into operation will be the means Of
temporarily relieving many honest
workingmen who are unable to secure
employment Of any kind.
