Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 31.-Al-
though the convention of the gold
standard democrats is less than AZ
hours away, the delegates are slow in
arriving. A few of the notables, in
Guiding Perry Belmont and John r.
Fellows, of New York, Louis Enrich
of Colorado, Comptroller Eckels of IL
linois, Senator Villas of Wisconsin, ex-
Congressman Cultivate of Ohio and
C. S. Perry of Connecticut arrived to-
day, but the real influx will not begin
until tomorrow.
Secretary John r. Wilson already
has the signed credentials Of over 600
delegates, and kilograms announcing
that others are on their way.
Thus far but one delegate has APP
peared who does not favor the nomina
ton of a ticket The managers, how
ever, look upon a ticket in doubtful
states of vital Importance. The gen
eral expectation is that an electoral
ticket will be put up in almost every
state of the Union, 1t is pointed cut
that an active campaign against the
Chicago nominees is to be made by the
gold democrats under the auspices of
the committee to be appointed by the
convention, to succeed the provisional
committee, and that this could be done
both more effectively and more con-
sistently with nominees in the field.
The managers have begun to cast
around for vote getters. The most
prominent name suggested today was
that of Senator Gray of Delaware.
Congressman Cultivate of Ohio ami
ex-Minister Broadhead to Switzerland,
of Missouri are also talked about.

CIamOr Against IL Third Term Bars
Him Out.
Indianapolis, Aug. 31.-Thera may be
a contest in the committee on resolu-
tons over the question of endorsing
the principles Of an income tax. The
eastern delegates generally oppose it,
but Delegate Krauthoff of Missouri is
earnestly advocating such plank.
"The convention" said he, should
commit the party to this fair and just
way Of raising revenue. But the dec
laration should set forth that, in view
of constitutional objections found
against this form of tax by the SUI
preme court, the first effort should be
to remove this objection, not in the
revolutionary manner proposed by the
Chicago convention of packing the SUI
preme court but by the method pro-
posed by the constitution itself"
Among the letters received at head
quarters today was one from eX-Gov-
ernor Pinkney White Of Maryland, re-
GREETING his inability TO be present.
But the movement" he wrote has
my hearty concurrence, and | trust it
will be a great success"
More interest attaches here to CleVe-
lands position, perhaps, than TO any
other feature of the convention. BY
many it is accepted as a fact that the
president is in sympathy with the con-
vention. A declaration of some sort
from him would not be a surprise; in
fact, they rather anticipate something
from Cleveland. Those who are most
active in the movement, however are
not of this opinion. Bynum said today
that he did not think the president
would be heard from.
ct would" he said, "be entirely un-
likely that the president would make
declaration in advance Of the action of
this convention. Even were he in sym
pathy with it, he would hardly indorse
it's action in advance. Such course
would commit him, no matter what
was done"
There is a decided feeling that but
one thing stands in the way of offer
ing the nomination to the president. 1t
is recognized that in case this action
was taken that there would be
clamor against a third term, which
might be turned to account by the sill
yer men and prevent some voting.

CIeveInnd's Response.
your Excellency: 1t gives me great
Measure to receive from your hand
the personal letter from your august
sovereign. and to greet you as his per-
sonal representative. Since cur two
countries became better acquainted,
many incidents have occurred calcu-
lated to increase our friendly relations
and not the least gratifying Of these
are the friendly expressions contained
in the letter Of your emperor, and the
visit to our country Of his most dis
tinguished subject, who has been so
honorably and prominently connected
With public affairs in his own country
and with all that has been attempted
in the direction of advancement and
improvement.
"Your visit to us ct this time is made
more impressive by the thought that it
serves to join in one suggestion the
most ancient civilization of the east
and the best type of the newer ctVili-
cation in the western world. NotWith-
standing the widely different charac-
teristics of the two countries, the well
come which is rendered you by the
government and citizens of the United
States illustra tes in the strongest pos
sible manner the kinship of nations.
1--WE feel that in the arrangement Of
your tour you have not allotted to your
sOjOurn among us sufficient time for
adequate observation Of all we have
accomplished as a nation. 1t will not
however, escape your notice that a
rich and fertile domain has here been
quickly erected by those who were as
sured they would reap what they had
sown. That a strong and beneticent
by those who loved freedom, and that
we have a generous and patriotic peo-
pie, who love their government because
it is theirs, constructed by them, ad-
ministeTed by them, and protected and
saved from harm by them. We heart
lily wish that your stay may be most
pleasant, and that at it's close you
may enjoy a safe and agreeable return
to your home and your field of duCy
and usefulness"
At the conclusion of this speech the
president presented to Earl Ii the
members of his cabinet and others
present. General conversation follow
ed. When it ended Earl Ii and suite
was escorted back to the Waldorf,
where his excellency remained during
the afternoon.

Having met with the highest sue
cess in the manufacture and sale of
the excellent liquid laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, 1t has become import
ant to all to have knowledge of the
Company and its products. The
great value of the remedy as II medi-
cinal agent, and of the Company's
efforts, is attested by the sale OF
millions of bottles annually and by
the high approval of most eminent
physicians,
The California Fig Syrup Co. was
organized more than twelve years
ago, for the special purpose OF
manufacturing and selling II laxative
remedy, which would be more
pleasant TO the taste and more bene'
fetal in its effects than any other
known. In the process Of manuiact'
uring, figs are used, as they are
pleasant to the taste, and healthfu
in their tendencies, but the medicina
properties of the remedy are obtained
from an excellent combination Of
plants known to be incidentally lax
alive, and to act most beneiicially.
If in the enjoyment of good health
and the system is regular, thel
laxative or other remedies are no,
needed. If afflicted with any actua
disease one may be commended tC

1t was during a period when President
Porter was holding Rotations in the Athen-

substantial truth of which is vouched for
here In one of the class divisions was a
young fellow active in athletics, who found
1t difficult to blend proficiency in baseball
with the 40 pages of advance and review
which made up the normal days lesson in
DR.. Porter's bulky volume on 1.-The Human
Intellect" Taking advantage of DIR. Por-
ter's easy going recitations, the young fel-
low hit on the following device: He divid-
ed the 40 pages into eight sections of five
pages each. For each section he prepared
an answer, usually based on "A suggestive
line or two sometimes evolved from inner
consciousness. At recitation he simply
watched DR.. Porter turn the pages, basing
his answer absolutely on the number OF
pages turned. From pages 8 to 10 meant
answer number two, from pages 25 to 30
answer number @, and so on, not the slight
est attention otherwise being paid to the
question.
The young pioneer in psychology, who
ratified off the answer with all the hexibil-
fly of speech and earnestness he could com,
mand, always met gracious smile from
DIR. Porter and found subsequently by this
audacity he had secured a stand in psychol-
ogy among the first half dozen in the class.
Years after he met DIR. Porter and explained
the trick and its result. The president
turned the thing prettily. "Mr. Blank

The cleanest, brightest safest and really

for use in the family residence, is the incan.
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen.
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
SO near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite a number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind

The woodcock builds her nest among the
dry heather in the woods, and there, of
course, her eggs are Matched. The baby
birds are helpless creatures, of no use to
themselves till their bills grow hard and
their legs and wings become strong. They
live chiefly on worms and want besides a
good deal of moisture.
These things can only be had in swampy
ground, and as the youngsters cannot go to
the marshes the question is, How are they
fedp 1t would be wearisome job for the
mother TO fly to and fro with the large
quantity of worms that her hungry infants
need. She would have no time to get a
meal for herself
Well, regularly every evening she actu-

woods to the marsh and brings them back
again before daybreak to the shelter of the
wood, where they stay during the day,
This habit was doubted for long time
and even denied, but it is now accepted us
a well established fact.-New York Jour
