THE MARVELLOUS KELLAR.

Kellar, the king of magicians, with
his wonderful illusions and sleight-of-
hand tricks. attracted one of the larg-
est audiences Of the season to the
Opera House last mighty It was an au-
dience that was quick to appreciate the
truly clever deceptions he practiced.
Much of his work had been seen here
before. but a fresh flavor was given by
several new acts which were remark
able and inexplicable. One of his
most mysterious feats is a new spirit
ualistic enigma, in which he claims the
ghost of Cagliastro plays a prominent
part. One of his prettiest illusions is
the "Queen of the Roses" in which
Mrs. Kellar mysteriously appears sur
rounded by the queenly flowers. It is
also one of the newest. The whole
/ performance was marvellous, and q
subject of wonder to everybody.

PRESS ASSOCIATION.
Visit Mckinley and Listen to Words oi
 Deep WisA n.

CANTON, Sept 2-Eighty mem bers of the Republican Press associa- tion of West Virginia, called on Major Mckinley yesterday afternoon. W. P. Morris acted as spokesman and in con- clusion of his remarks, said that the vast wealth of West Virginia was chained and helpless without protec- tion.
 In response Mr. Mckinley said that the Republican cause was nevrr r1ore just and righteous than it is this year and the triumph of its principles was never more essential to the genera ! welfare of the American people than now, nothing being more essential to the standing and progress of country than the preservation of its credit and financial honor, and nothing being more indispensable to business >and prosperity than that the currency of the country shall be so honest that it can cheat nobody. But lying beneath all these, and more important than all, is the preservation of law and order the reign of domestic quiet. The peo. pie appreciate that a great crisis is up- | on them and the way to avert that crisis is for the patriotic men of every section of the country to unite and act | together in the common cause of the | country.

BY BULLETIN.

Suggestions of iWatterson for presi- dent which seemed to Ihave been high ly satisfactory yesterday, seem to have gained no ground today.
 The Kentucky delegation is pledged for Buckner for ice-president and the sentiment seems to be drifting back to the original ticket suggested at Chi cago-Bragg and Buckner. The con- vention will complete permanent orga- nization and then adjourn till Thurs day, as a big mass meeting has been arranged for tonight, at which Colonel Breckenridge of Kentucky, Colonel Fellows of New York and Mr. Enrich of Colorado and other orators will speak. Ex-Governor Flower, who has been selected as temporary chairman of the National convention, will de- liver the opening speech.
 Dr. Everett's assertion that Massa- chusetts and New England were here to back up the west and south in pre- serving the honor of the country caused great enthusiasm. He said Massachusetts was against all class distinction, that it was for poor and rich alike and knows no distinction between north and south or between east and west. He said Massachusetts stands by President Cleveland who has steadily maintained the honor of the country

VE.ISKY AND THEOLOGY First One and Then the

Pastor Tries Both and Finds
 Gospel the Best.
Leaves the Pulpit to Sell Rum-TFe Saloon Fails to Pay and Goes
 Back to Gospel.

The New York Journal relates the experience of a New Jersey clergyman as follows.
 Rev. Julius Feicke the Jersey City clergyman who last summer created a sensation by severilg his connection with the South Bergen Chassis and opening a beer saloon at Fifth and Garden streets, Hoboken, has now giv- en up tine saloon and returned to the church. He found beer selling did mt pay, and having made his peace with his ministerial superiOrs, has re-em- Y tered the pulpit, in charge of the Ger man Evangelical church, of Bethle- : hem, Pa.
 MT. iFeicke is an educated and pol i i ished German. He says he never could see any harm in the saloon business. | if it was properly conducted, except for the prejudice against it. On opening (hds place in Hoboken he declared tl1at
 he was forced into the business fu
 save his family from want, his salary
 as pastor hardly proving sufficient to
 buy shoes for them.
 Fetcke'S venture, however, did nut
 prove a success. At fi1st quite a num- I Der Ot people were attracted to his sa-
 loon by curiosity to see how the clergy
 man could mix a cocktail or operate
 the ale pump, but after the novelty
 wore of the place somehow seemed to
 be summed by the respectable portion
 of the neighborhood, the people, ap-
 parently, having an instinctive feeling
 that the clerical saloon combination
 was not altogether appropriate. Il Mir. Feicke has a mortgage of s1, 500 ! on the place he opened last year. Since then he has managed to pay that off } and to clear only s125, which now rep ] resents his capital He was suspended , by the South Bergen Chassis for his : eontumacy in refusing to live on a ! pittance allowed him for preaching, but made a hot fight on the question os l his right to sell beer if he saw fit. He
 propounded a series of questions on this subject to the Chassis, but ttsa body never answered.
 5 The pastors saloon was always \ } moral place and conducted in the mosf orderly manner. He has now disposed ) of it, and started yesterday for Beth ? lehem
 The pastors wife and family ar, 9 fnow living in New York city. They ef will join him in Bethlehem as soon sz . [he is seated in his new home.

 Started in Their Camp.

While the church people were asleep Wednesday night, Hutchins and Dorr pitched their tent in the Methodist camp. When the Methodists awoke this morning they were astonished to see a big tent with refreshments printed on it in large letters and bar tenders standing around wearing white aprons. Hutchins and Dorr were on the road to jail within an hour and the liquor was spilled and their temporary saloon wreck.

TRIsHis STATEMENT.
He Says Bryan Will Lose California
 Oregon and Possibly Nevada

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 2.-John P. Irish of California, who has been one of the most active. leaders of the gold Democratic movement on the Pacific coast, says the people of the east are not aware of the conditions existing on the coast and declares that three states, California, Oregon and Wash ington cannot be carried for Bryan and that there is a possibility that Ne vada will be carried against him. ''In California; said he, there are en- rolled 25,000 Democrats who will not vote for Bryan. The Populists con- cede that there are 12,OO0 Republicans who will vote for Bryan. They are those who are discontented and be- long largely to the class of men who want to remodel the affairs of the world.
 There is a curious alliance on the coast between millionaires and those who have nothing to lose tin case of dis aster. Those who are for the Chicago ticket are big millionaire mine own owners. Gold mine owners are not for the ticket. They want the price of their gold enhanced and would like to put their working men on silver. Fruit growers, manufacturers, and all ! business men that want business ac- commodations from time to time, and the men they employ are against Bryan. They want stability.
 California, Oregon and Washington will not vote for Bryan. He will bo beaten in California by 15,OO0. There is also a fair prospect thai l he will be beaten in Nevada Tghe two senators and one representative in congress credited to Nevada are resi- dents of California Many citizens of Nevada resent this. They would like to have men who represent them in their nearest relations with the Na- tional government to be residents oi their own state. This feeling is stl strong that it may result in defeatinx Bryan, who has been so strongly SUD- ported by the three men, Jones, Stew art and Newlands, who now represend the state"
 MT. Irish says the majority of tl,e California delegates prefer Bragg and Buckner for a presidential ticket

 Death at New Albany Hotel.

KANSAS CITY, Sept. "A tall, raw boned young man, wearing a gray suit
 of clothes and a wide brimmed hat, walked into the New Albany hotel yesterday and wrote on the register, L. M. Huss, G. N. F., Wyoming.

Night Clerk Joseph Welsh had occasion to go through the hall on the second floor about 2 o'clock this morning and as he passed the room occupied by Huss he caught a strong odor of gas. The transom was open and the gas was pouring out into tlbe hall. Welsh knocked on the door of No. fl, but could get no response. He tried tn clock and found it fastened.

NO CONVICT COAL.
Penitenfiary Directors Refuse tc 1r-
 cept a Bid.

LEAVENiWORTH, Kan, Sept. E. The directors of the Kansas peniten-. tiary met yesterday to let the contract for the output of the Kansas eoa1 mine. There was only one bid sub m4tted. that of J. Kusey of Arkansas City, who offered S5 cents a ton for screened lump. The board did not care to accept such a low bid and re- jected it. on the grounds that it waE not accom- panied by a certified check for $1,000.
 z There was a great demand for this penitentiary coal contract until six months ago and it was let for s1.S0 a ton. Hard times and labor fights OH the coal have caused the change. Com mittees, from labor organizations were present today and protested against the letting of any contract. At pces- ent there are over 200 c0nvic% u.iners doing nothing but supplying coal fcr state institutions

He became alarmed and summoning help, broke down the door. Huss was found in peaceful inconsistencies and he was dragged out into the hall where, after considerable work, he was -arirnd. When he opened his eyes his i6 thought was that he was being
 l. It was with difficulty that he could be persuaded that he had been rescued from deah.
 What did you blow out the gas for?" asked Clerk Welsh.
 Well, I had to git the alarmed thing out some way" answered the stranger. "I afn't used t sleepin' in the light. "

The committee reports in favor of the permanent National organization of the party here represented and the report was accepted. GT
 Senator Caffery took the chair and said the action of the Chicago con- vention in packing that convention by throwing out the Michigan delegates, leaves the real Democrats free and none are in amy way bound by it's ac- tion, which in its platform was in al- most every way un-Democratic and patriotic.
 He predicted that the party of the Chicago convention will be wander CT and fugitive on the face of the earth" He says free coinage as pro posed will rob the poor man of his wage, the rich man of his wealth, the soldier of his just remuneration and be the repudiation of just and honor able debts. He says we are not to be driven from the house of our fathers nor driven into the camp of the Re publican party; while Democracy lasts the republic shall last and with it hu- man liberty. He says we are the up holders of the old Democracy doc. urine and we appeal to the people t6 unfurl the flag of the old Democracy which was never sullied by repudia, tion or dishonor. .
 Gallery in closing called on all trut Democrats to rally for their country liberty and honor.
 John P Irish of California wak called to the platform to address tht convention He said we are here tt defend what is dearer than life-oul National honor and integrity. Lrisl referred to the Populist convention a Chicago and the Populist convention a St. Louis as the twin conventions, bu by no means the Heavenly Twins" Irish strongly attacks the protect i've tariff policy of the Republican party and says we must do what W can to resent such policy, as we'll a against the policy of the travelin representative silver mine owner.
 The convention adjourned at 5:4 until II a. m. tomorrow
