in their seats when Archbishop J. ].
Kain made the opening prayer. They
began dropping in after 1890 o'clock,
and an hour before noon, the parquette
was we'll filled.
The first hour of business was the
calling of the roll of states for reports
of the condition of the banking bust
ness in various localities. S. H. Har-
ners of Helena, Ark, reported money
conditions in his state better since the
cotton crop began moving. He depre-
Gated the extent of free silver senti-
ment in the country and smaller towns,
and said the banking interests were
doing what they could to stamp it OUT
Mr.. Lutz, OF California, after stating
that his state had always operated on
. a gold basis, explained the difficulties
OF banking IN that state. J. Ottey, of
Atlanta, Ga, who took a rap at free
silver, reported his state as prosperous.

the conclusion of the roll call, there

of technical subjects, which took up a
greater part Of the session.
The afternoon session of the con-
Vention was rather prosy and unin-
teresting. There were few II any

A Singular Form of Monomania.

There is a class Of people, rational enough
in other respects, who are certainly mono
maniacs in dosing themselves. They are con-
stantly trying experiments upon their stonl-
achs, their bowels, their liyers, and their
kidneys with trashy nostrums. When these
. organs are really out of order, If they would
only use Hostetter's Stomach Bitters they
would, If not hopelessly insane, perceive its
superiority.
