 Customs on American Soil.

Customs on AmericAn SOIL
 Four athletic young girls find daily employment at a small coal mine in the Mahoning valley. several miles from Shamokin, says the Atlanta Constitu- ton. The colliery is owned and op- erated by Joseph Mans, hard-work- ing German, who says he has simply in- trodueed the custom of his fatherland in having his four daughters assist him in preparing the fuel for market.
 The girls are six-footers, good look ing and well formed, each tipping the scales at about 200 pounds. Kate, aged 20 years, has charge of the breakers; Annie, aged l6, runs its mine pumps and breaker engines like veteran en- gineer; Lizzie, aged IS, drives mule attached to a gin for the purpose of hoisting the coal from the slope, and Mary, aged l9, sees that the slate is picked from the coal by her little broth CTS, whom she helps in the work.
 The girls wear short skirts, not bloomers, as might be supposed.
 Mans formerly worked in the mines at Shannokin. but during the last 12 years, with the assistance of his wife, who runs the farm, and their daughters at the mine, he has managed to buy this coal mine and large amount of timber land besides.

 "Why don't you read ?" inquired the mayor.
 "I can't" replied Miss Jones. "You can read writing, can't you?" he asked. Certainly"

 "Because," answered the typewriter. "thcre are words there l do not under stand"
 The mayor took up the letter and read u himself. He hesitated several times while perusing the pages, and, after fin ishing 1t, said to the typewriter: "There are some hard wor,ls there l don't understand myself" Then he turned and winked at his private secre- tary.
 Taking up postal card, the mayor i there could not be any hard" words on a postal card or the postal authorities would not deliver it. Miss Jones read the card to herself first and laughed while doing 30.

 While Miss Jones was reading the card everybody laughed but the mayor. When she had finished, he said:
 "I wish the writer had signed his name. would send him my office hours for being punched" The mayor saw big square envelope among the others, and. selecting It, handed it to Miss Jones to read. She took the letter out of the envelope, and, after glancing at the first line, said to the mayor:

 "Ycs; go ahead" said the mayor.

 "It's full of hard woris,'" replied Miss Jones, blushing

Arthur Sewall Of Maine Nominated On
tho Fifth Ballot.
CHICAGO, July 1.-The Democratic
National convention completed its
work Saturday afternoon. Arthur
Sewall of Maine, a Bath ship-builder,
and an ardent free coinage man. was
named for vice president on ticket
headed by William j. Bryan. the elo-
quent young orator from the prairies
beyond the Missouri.
Over ESQ gold delegate decliued to
participate in the nomination for vice
president Many of the delegates had
left the city. Whether the seceders
will place third ticket in the field,
as the minority did at Baltimore in
1860, is . matter for future develop
ment
The nomination of Sewall for vice
president was more of surprise than
that of Bryan for president. Bryan
had set the convention afame with
his eloQuence and his name was on
every lip when the balioting began,
but Sewalrs name in connection with
the vice presidency had hardly been
mentioned.

the nomination of the Ohio editor.
It was at this critical juncture that
McLean's telegram was received Dy
one of the Ohio delegates. The tele-
gram stated it was Mr.. McLean's wish
that he should not be balloted for.
Delegate Sloan, however, after read
ing the telegram, distinctly stated
that, while the telegram expressed
Mr.. McLeans wish. it did not express
the sentiment of Ohio. which on the
fifth ballot, concluded to cast forty
six votes for Mclean. The tele-
gram, however, shattered the Nc
Lean forces. and Indiana, Iowa
and other states flocked into the
camp of the Maine man. Sewall's
nomination was unanimous before the
conclusion of the roll call, amid scenes

the Hoosier State; Mclean, Sibley of
Pennsylvania, Bland and others were
canvassed, and Senator Jones and
some of his associates of the silver
leaders came to the conclusion that for
geographical and other reasons the
Maine man was the most available
man for the place on the ticket with
Mr.. Bryan.
The strongest argument in his favor
perhaps was that his nomination
would at once silence the cry that the
silver cause was sectional-an impu.
tation the Arkansas Senator was quick
to rebuke when Senator Ben Tillman
avowed that such was the case in the
convention on Thursday. Mr.. Nc
Lean decided not to be q candidate,
and gave directions to his friends in
the Ohio delegation not to present his
name. but the Mclean sentiment was
so strong that it could not be sup
pressed. Just as the convention had
narrowed down to q race between
Sewall and Mclean the latter, through
q personal telegram, which was read
from the stage, withdrew his name,
and there was q stampede for Sewall
The latter was nominated, as Bryan
was, on the fifth ballot w. G. Burke
of California nominated Sewall.
On the first ballot fifteen candidates
were voted for. Sibley of Pennsyl.

Der of votes. The other votes were

Attempt to stampede to Bland.
On the second ballot there was an
attempt to stampede the convention
to Bland. who on this ballot received
s9i votes. Mclean moved up to 1888,
Sibley fell back to 1Is, and Sewall
dropped to 81. 1t looked Is if
tho latter was dlsastrously beaten,
but Senator Jones with his 16
Arkansas votes stood firm. He
rallied the followers Of the Name
man and on the next ballot Sewall
secured 81 votes Meantime there ap-
peared to be general movement in
favor OF Mclean. Some of the Bland
men deserted him and went to Nc
Lean, who led on this ballot with :l0.
After the announcement of this vote
Bland was withdrawn by Governor
Stone of Missouri. who read . message
