Democrats in Session.

The Democratic National conven-
ton convened yesterday at IL clock
and Senator Daniel, Of Virginia, was
made temporary chairman. The sill
yer following developed practically
the strength accredited it for some
time past, Daniel, the silver candi-
date, receiving 558 votes to $40 for
Hill. Thus the silver men have a
large majority of the delegates, al
though not the tWo-thirds majority,
which it is the custom of the Demo
cratic party to require in nominal
lions for president. In all probabil-
ity, unless the gold faction surrenders,
this tradition OF the party will be
broken. An unequivocaid declaration
for free silver is certain to be the
money plank. Senator White, of
California, will be the permanent
chairman. Ofthe various candidates
for the presidential nomination
Bland seems to bethe strongest while
Boles and Mathews have considera-
BILE following. At present there ap-
pears to be no probability of Teller
becoming a factor in the race.

NEW YEARS IN WASHINGTON
Presidents Reception Ushers in the
Official Ceremonies.


Washington. JAN 1.-The weather
to-day is delightful, and New Years
day ushered in the opening of the fes-
tivities and official ceremonies of 1896.
New Years receptions in their old con-
ventional sense have been gradually
waning in Washington, and the tradi-
tion of ''open house" in it's old meaning
is waning fast. The receptions of citi-
zens outside of official circles to-day
are being confined almost entirely to
intimate friends and well-known ac-
quaintances. the official ceremonies
were ushered in with the presidents
reception at IL o'clock this morn
ing, when, following the greet
ings from the vice-president, the
cabinet officers and the members of the
diplomatic corps, army and navy Off
GERS and other distinguished retinue
and citizens generally, the presidents
reception at p. m. ended. The presi-
dent, following the precedent of years,
was assisted in welcoming his callers
by Mrs. Cleveland and the ladies of
the abinet. Merging into the time of
the White House ceremonies will come
as soon as the official callers have
reached their homes, the reception of
foreign ministers, ca bineG officers and
those prominent in official station
These, with many citizens, will be at
home at certain hours to accept and re-
spond to the felicitous saluta tons of the
New Years greeting frommany friends.

His Entire Family Massa red.
To-day my money is return ed to me
by one of our neighbors saying that not
one of our entire family is left, not
even the little orphan children of one
of my brothers. Besides that three
uncles of mine in the city have also
been murdered, SO that not a soul re
mains of all my family and relatives to
whom the money could be given or with
whom could mourn the awful loss of
my entire family in one day. Our fam
lily had once extensive rice fields, but
the government took them from us by
force to feed the army We even pro-
tested to the English government but
could get no redress; the government
only gave us worthless notes. Now
they have slain our family root and
branch SO there will be no one to claim
anything for the lands that were made
fruitful by the labor of my forefathers.
But we were submissive under all such
wrongs making peaceful appeals for
justice and our reward has been ex-
termination"

Alfred Austin's Career.
Alfred Austin is a poet, critic and
journalist. He was born at Headingley,
hear Leeds, May 80, 1885. Both his
parents being Roman Catholics, he was
sent to Stonyhurst college and after
wards to st. Mary's college, Oscott.
From Oscott he took his degree at the
University of London in 1853, and in
1857 he was called to the bar of the
inner temple. But the publication, al
though anonymously, of poem enti-
tied Randolph" when he was Is,
showed the bent of his disposition, and
it may be stated, on the authority of
MIR Austin himself, that he ostensibly
embraced the study of the law only in
Difference to the wishes of his, parents.
and from his earliest years was
imbued with the desire and de-
terminate to devote his life
mainly to literature. The expression
of this resolve is found in a novel writ
ten and published while he was yet a
minor. On the death OF his father in
1861 he quilted the northern circuit
and went to Italy. His first acknowl-
edged volume of verse, ''The Season: a
SATIRE" appeared in 1861. A third and
revised edition of "The Season" ap-
peared in 1869. His other poetical pro-
auctions are numerous. He has pub
lished three novels-"Five Years of 1t. :
1858; IAN Artists Proof 1864, and
''Won by a Head" 1866; also ''The
Poetry of the Period, reprinted from
Temple Bar, 1870, and "A Vindication
of Lord Byron" 1869, occasioned by
Mrs. Stoves article, 1.-The True Story
of Lord Byron's Life"
Newspaper and Magazine Work.
He has written much for the London
Standard (newspaper) and the Quarter
ly Review. During the sittings of the
aecumenical council of the vatican he
represented the Standard at Rome, and
ne was a special correspondent of that
journal at the headquarters of king
q Prussia In the Tranco-German war.
His political writings include Russia
Before Europe" 1875; "Tory Horrors, .
1875, reply to Mr.. Gladstone's "Bul-
garian Horrers," and "England's Poll
cy and PERIL" letter to the Earl of
Beaconsheld, 1877. In 1892 Messrs.
Macmillan issued collected edition of
his poems in six volumes, since which
time they have published "Fortunatus
the Pessimist" and 'England's Darling,
and other Poems" and a prose work
entitled 'sThe Garden that Love-"

house two carloads of Chinese from the
