A Possible Calamity.

After several desultory speeches along
this line had been made, the president
said: 1.-The chaplain prayed at the opening
of the meeting that the Holy Ghost should
rule our proceedings Now, if you get to
floating about, He will take His departure
This remark had the effect of restoring
quiet and the chair began his address, urg-
ing that only the most suitable candidates
ought to be supported and that the voters
of the second district ought to select the
two best men among those named for the
convention, and do all they could to elect
rem.
God has, he continued, INSPIRED me so
much that l can go along and tell by look
ing in mans eyes what is in his heart
We want men who will do right at the con-
vention, and after they get back, also"
Mr.. TibbS said he represented the rising
young coiored population of Washir gton
He believed that Col. Parker's withdrawal
from the field will hurt Col. Perry Carson
very materially.
Vice President Smith sad if he had the
power to command, as Joshua of old did the
sun on one occasion, he would say to Perry
Carson: stand still and let some one else
who is more suitable go to the convention
At this point Mr.. Smiths time expired,
and Mr.. Beckett, who had been slated for a
speech, said he would waive his right on the
occasion, and give his five minutes to Mr..
Smith. Continuing, Mr.. Smith urged very
earnestly that the young and well-educated
men should come to the front on all proper
occasions.

ing that in his own experience he had not

CANDLE DRIPS rs CLEWS.
George KOhIer, of st. Louis, Arrested
on Suspicion of Robbery.

Yesterday afternoon detective Thornton
walked into barber shop at No. Indiana
avenue, and there found man trying to
sell a lot of old clothes, which he had bum
died UP in a telescope. The fellow even
went so far to offer for sale what the
detective believed to be stolen goods to
Thornton. After a little questioning
Thornton decided to place him under ar
rest, and the patrol wagon was sent for.
The man had an oid-fashioned revolver on
him and handkerchief full of little tri-
hes, which in themselves amounted to lit
tie. but the clew which they afforded the
detective was important. He was charged
with grand larceny and carrying concealed
weapons.
In the telescope were found three pairs of
trousers and two coats. On these articles
were several small drips OF candle grease
presumably made while the prisoner was
going through some house after dark. In
the handkerchief were found a candle, sew
eral cards, a silver-mounted pocketbook
containing several cards with Miss over
street printed upon them. Three letters
were also found, one addressed to George
kohler. the name given by the man when
he was slated. The letter was dated at
ST. Louis, Kohlers home Another was a
short note addressed to DR.. w. CT. Over
street, city, but there was no c5w to the
name of the city. The, third let
taken from the envelope and which
begun Dear doctor. The letter was
westfield. Ind. and was of a business
character. From it the detective learned
that the home of DR. Oyerstreet is in
Greencastle Ind. Communication will now
be opened with DR.. Overstreet providing
there is such man in Greencastle. of
which there is little doubt in the mind of
the detective. Kohler is white man
about thirty-tive years of age dark com
plexioned and wears a dark mustache.

at about $50 o'clock by Broad Ripple car

prove fatal. The little fellow was selling
papers near the Union Station when the
accident occurred, and it was his anxiety
to dispose of one of his papers that re-
suited in his injuries. The boy was stand

west side of the north end of the tunnel,
talking to a fellow-newsboy, when he
thought he heard some one calling for a
paper in front of the Spencer House and
without looking, he jumped. to the ground,
intending to run across the street, but m

JOSEPH LAGLE, OUT OF EMPLOY
MENT, DESTROYS HIMSELF.
He Was Brewer, who Came Here
from EyaDsviIIe-A Prayer Book
in His Trunk.

Joseph Lagle, who has been roon1ing at
the lodging house of Paulina Roos. No. 421
South Delaware street, committed suicide
yesterday afternoon at some time between
and clock, by shooting himself through
the brain. La gle is a brewer who has been
in this city for about two months looking
for work, but he has not been successful.
Yesterday he more than usually de-
spondent, owing to his inability to find en-
poyment, and his dropping spirits were the
cause of considerable anxiety to the few
friends he has in this part of the State.
Yesterday afternoon at about O'Clock he
walked into the saloon which is directly be-
meath his rooms and remarked in a gloomy
way that man might just we'll be dead
as alive and be without work. He then
went upstairs to his room and was not
again seen alive. At about 6:30 o'clock his
landlady, Mrs. Roos, went to his room,
and, upon knocking and receiving no an
swer, opened the door and found Lagle
lying in the middle of the floor with the
blood trickling from the hole in his temple
The deed had been committed with a 80
caliber revolver. The coroner was notified
and the body was removed to Whitsett's
morgue, with what belongings the dead
man owned.
Lagle was a very large man. weighing
possibly 225 pounds, and was thirty-seven
years of age. His home was in Evansville,
and he had with him trunk full of clothes,
the greater part of them clean. The trunk
was opened and several books and railroad
guides were found. From the appearance
of his trunk it is likely that Lagle was
once a Well-to-do German, though Sl.:o was
all the money he had at the time of his
death. There was an old savings and loan
book, prayer book and several old wal
lets and notebooks in his trunk There
was also book dated 1896, such is pub
lished by the United States Brewers AS
ISOLATION, and which was printed in Ger
man. His prayer-book was in the same
language. Nothing is known of Lagle be-
fore he came to this city. but it is expected
that some word will be heard to-day from
Evansville concerning the disposal of the
body.
