FoRr WORM, Tex. Sept. 9-wright
Quincy went to his political death to-
day, and that too at the very be-
ginning Of the Republican state con.
vention. He had been dictator so long
and had triumphed in 10 many victories
that seemed even harder than the one
that gave him his walking papers. that
he actually wept, then turning his back
upon the delegates left the hail.
As soon as the convention was called
to order the name Of O. NJ. Ferguson
was proposed by Chairman Grant a.
temporary officer. This the Quincy fac.
ton did not desire, and they pitted the
once great Quincy against him.
The roll was called. The Paris man
took the lead from the very start. and
as Throokmorton county was reached Il
was plain 10 the Quincy crowd that the
fate Of their leader was sealed and they
withdrew his name.
Old campaigners say that they have
witnessed very few such scenes as fol.
lowed in tho convention hall. Upon the
announcement Of Ferguson's election q,
chairman John Grant Of the state com.
mitteo was taken from the platform on

PEARLS FOUND IN SCOTIA.

Ono frons-1A bertseensbire Said to Form
One of the Queens Jewels.
One is so much accustomed to associ-
Rtc pearls with the eastern and gold
with the southern and western coun-
tries OF the world, that the discovery of
pearls In Scotland and gold in Wales
seems somewhat opposed 70 the order
Of things That gold exists in Wales
in, Of course, quite a recent discovery,
and this small and Improbable quaint
ties found have now resulted in the
abandonment of the mining operations
commenced by Richard Morgan.
But the pearls of Scotland have quite
different history. For centuries
pearls have been found in the river
Ythan, in Aberdeenshire, and only
last year an Aberdeen man made some
notable hauls, which he disposed of to
jewellers of the northern towns. it was
recently stated in London paper that
pearl taken from the river Ithan IS
believed to form one of the queens
crown jewels. 1t is to be hoped that
the belief is well-founded, for in that
case It may be reasonably claimed that
the precious stone in question is the
only one contributed by the British
islands, thought calculated to CRAFTY
curnational pride, for Scotland might be
worse represented than by q pearl iI
the national regalia. T..
A story is told of nm Aberdeenshire
farmer who found q very large and per-
feet pearl in the shell OF q mussel taken
from the Ythan. Happening 70 visit
London some time afterward. he dis.
played his treasure to d West End
ieweler, who, strgck with the size and
beauty of the gem, asked the price. The
farmer demanded what possibly he re-
garded as big price, viz, e 100. Now,
This was in the days when Scotland had
her own coinage, and q pound (Scots}
was equivalent to 1ssd, 60 that the s 100
he asked would only have represented
as is Sd English money.
His surprise and delight may be mag
;ned, therefore, when he received for
his pearl G10O sterling. Tits doubtful,
however, whether the English jeweler
would have shared these feelings had he
known the exact meaning Of the 'hun-
ner pun" demanded by the owner of
the pearl However, he had no occasion
10 complain, for he Is said to have sold
thp eem subsequently, at q large profit.

rredonninstipx Propcnsities az ghe froflt-
gate Republicans

gate Republicans
The republican party. as IL chooses
70 be represented in congress. has Two
propensities which are, perhaps, i.iore
strongly marked than any others. One
is the propensity SO to legislatc as to
enable a few people engaged in pet in-
dustrics TO get rich out of the earnings
OF other people. The other is to make
Lrodigal expenditure of the money CON
tributed by taxpayers for public por-
poses.
The latter propensity was illustrated
s.gnally by the republican congress-
which in 1890 SO increased the eNpend-
itures as 20 convert a surplus % over
s1C0,O00,o00 a year into deiieit before
the expiration az HarrisoDs term That
prodigal congress did its work so we'll
by providing for continuous expend-
lures which cannot be reduced without
breach of faith that the deficit cont
tinues 1t was so skillful III its prodi-
eality that the receipts are still below
the expenditures, although they arc
more than sufficient TO meet the eN-
pcnditures Of any year after the union
army Was paid off and disbanded until
the Reed Mckinley congress made the
#moneyfly.
We have the same kind of congress
low with Reed at the front and the
same propensity manifests itself in
spite Of all efforts at repression. From
q republican source comes the pro-
posal to spend $1oo.0oo,oo0 as fast as
possible on coast defcnses, and no tell
inn how many millions more for big
guns and battle ships and all the other
means and implements of wholesale

The following startling statements

projectiles varying in weight from
three pounds to the 2s0-pound shell,
Carried by the six-inch breech loading
rife. They are designated as rapid
fire. on account of the facility with
which they may be handled.
'sAs to the destructive power of the
projectiies, it needs only to be stated
that the six-inch guns will penetrate Ia

with q 12-inch, 45-ton rife on board

within three minutes during recent tri-
ais, and three hits out OF four shots
were scored. rOn the Thunderer a ten

this work. 1t was found that one pro
