up her mercies, in order no doubt to
alleviate the dullness and quiet of her
life at first, but as the chase went on
she learned so much the goodness that
surrounded her, so much pity for those
who We're less happy, that she uncon
sciously set herself to comfort and help
whoever came within her reach needing
such charities. Her heart opened itself
to the needs and sorrows of the world
about her. And life grew sweeter and
more interesting every day. She learned
also to know the Bible that Aunty
Tucker lived by. and to her came the
fufillment of the word: IF any man
shall do His WILL he shall know of the
doctrine whether it be of God.
Gradually. almost as close-shut bud
opens leaf by leaf to the clear shining
of the sun, Myra came out of her uneasy
unbelief into the lignt and warmth of
the Gospel. Her mother felt as If new
life had come into the house. and even
the girls face was not the face she
wore when she came back from Water
loo.
It was on the third Thanksgiving day
that she went over to take Aunty Tuck
er her dinner, quite as bountiful and
appropriate as ever. but much more well
come to Auntie. as she looked in the
face of the bringer.
Don't seem as though you was the
same Myry that come to see me two
year ago." she said
you've changed a sight"
'It's your doing, Aunty," laughed
Myra. you set me to hunt UP my mer-
cies.''
TITS the Lords doin', an marvellous
in our eyes," said Aunty Tucker, rev.
erently.
IT couldn't do nothing but prayed
for ye a sight, dear, and He is faithful.
I expect you won't slight this Thanks
givin' day"
mo indeed I shan't. 7 shall give
special thanks for you Aunty Tucker;
in my hunt I found you very soon"
"And I do hear tell" said Aunty
that you've hunted up one marcy that'l
| last we for life: is't so?"
Myra could not meet the sly twinkle
of those kind old eyes; she only colored
to her hair and gave an odd little laugh
| but Aunty understood.
! Mr. Fenton kept his Thanksgiving this
year at the Lyman farm; there was love
| now in the faces of both mother and
! daughter. Myra had hunted up her
mercies and lost herself. This was
| Thanksgiving indeed for her, for it was
also Thanks Living.

Conference Committee
waiting on Action by the Peoples
Party

ST. LOUIS, Mo-. July 22.-The conference
committee. appointed by the silver conyen-
ton today held a meeting as soon as the
convention adjourned and discussed line
Of action. II was decided that, should the
Peoples party convention select like COM
mittee and agree to a conference, Chairman
w. p. st. John OF the committee. should act
for the silver men, The Peoples party COM
mittee Is to be asked what concessions 1t Is
willing to make. After this the silver COM
mitteemen will take part in the discussion.
AS soon IS this line of procedure had been
decided upon, motion was adopted direct
ing the chairman and secretary to notify the
Peoples party that the silver convention had
appointed a committee with view to con-
ference with like committee from the Peo-
pies party in order that both parties might
reach, II possible, a common ground. The
following letter then sent to the chair
man Of the Peoples party convention:
Dear Sir: We beg to advise you that. upon
the suggestion that such action would be
valued by yourself and associates in the spirit
which prompted it, the national silver con-
vention has unanimously appointed member
from each state delegation to constitute a
committee Of conference with the Peoples
party convention, and we respectfully await
response from you
1t was expected that an answer would be
received before the adjournment of the even
ing session, and the committee adjourned
until 10 o'clock. But as the night session
OF the Peoples convention was forced to ad-
Journ on account of darkness in the hail. the
answer did not come. The committee will
meet again at $50 tomorrow morning

In the morning Mr.. Newland sounded

gates to more of the same, when he

who has just graduated from the Re
publican party, was honored by being
made permanent vice chairman. The
programme Of the silver convention
Is well mapped out, and will not be
deviated from. "A single plank plat
form will be adopted and Bryan and
SeWaH will be Endorsed.
The whole programme might have
been carried out today but for the fact
that the silver men are anxious to join
with the Popuiists and are playing a
waiting game. They have named their
conference committee and are ready
to consider terms just as soon as the
Populists will offer them. Their con-
ventfon is not attracting very general
attention, and is really only a side
show for the big entertainment which
the Populists are furnishing.

ONLY MURDER.
Probably No Mutiny Connected With
the Fuller Tragedy.

--f d.
HALIFAX. N. S. July 225The
crowds that have surrounded the police
station ever since yesterday, when the
crew Of the Fuller were taken into
custody, were to be seen there again
early this morning, and, during the
forenoon, the excitement prevalent yes
terday showed no signs Of lessening.
The prisoners are still closely guarded
and the chief interest today seemed
to be in regard to the result of the
corOner's inquest, and the disposition
Of the victims of the murderous sailor.
1t was expected that the medical ex-
aminer would present his report this
morning, but it was not finished. Con-
sequently the examination, before the
city stipendiary. which will doubtless
follow the receipt of the port, was not
held.
There seems to be a growing belief
that others, besides the mate, who is
the one chiefly suspected Of being the
murderer, must be implicated in the
affair, and from incidents that have
come to light since yesterday. the pos
sibility that well matured plan to
seize the schooner and sell it to the
Cubans had been completed before the
vessel sailed from Boston, seems well
founded. 1t has been learned that
Monks, the passenger on board the
Fuller, receievd a direct intimation
that he had better not make his pro-
posed trip on that vessel, but whether
or not the warning came from the mate
is not positively known. There are
many, on the other hand. who think
that the triple murder was merely the
outcome Of a drunken attempt to as
sault the wife of the captain, which
involved the killing Of her husband
and the second mate, who must have
been witness of the captains murder.
and then the killing of the woman her.

Special to the Globe.
ST. LOUIS, July 22.-The original
plan Of the. silver convention was to
rush 1t through trusting to the effect
an Endorsement Of Bryan and Sewall
would have on the Populists. Suisse
quently it was concluded 1T would be
better to dignity the Populists by con-
ferring with them and thus prolong
the convention possibly two or three
days. A committee of one was appoint
ed from each state to confer with the
Populists. w. w. Erwin, of St Paul.
being selected from Minnesota. This
committee was to have met tonight,
but the Populists, having no session
tonight owing TO lack of light, could
not appoint their committee. This will
probably prolong both conventions an
extra day. Outside of the delegates,
only one or two hundred were present
at the silver convention. AS compared
with the Populists these silver Republi-
cans are plutocrats and the average
plutocrat thinks he can take care of
himself without divine aid. 1t was not
surprising therefore that the sixteen to
one convention was opened without
prayer. Possibly gold bricks, which are
supposed to make paving about the
throne of grace, were Objectionable
Minnesota always rises to an emer-
gency, and this was no exception. J.
M. Hawthorne, of st. Paul, was chosen
chairman of the delegation and by re-
quest of the delegates he offered re-
solution directing future sessions to
be opened with prayer. This passed
with only two plutocratic negative
votes and Minnesota piety was again
fndorsed. The only improvement could
have suggested after the original over
sight had occurred would have been to
have Hawthorne call on Bill Erwin
to close the first session with q bene-
diction, so that there could have been
a divinity shaping one end Of the
convention at least. The Minnesota
silver delegates selected c.. A. Towne
for vice president; j. w. Griffin. of Min
neapolis, national committeeman; Sena-
tor Howard, Of Minneapolis, on the re-
solutions committee; Judge Davis, Of
Duluth, on permanent organization and
William Wilson, of Shakopee. on Gre
dentials. III. l.. Chapplee was secretary,
of the delegation. Frank Nye was Sc
1ected to speak on the resolutions in
lieu Of Erwin, who was put ON the con-
ference committee. There are thirty
silver delegates here from Minnesota.
Frank Day could not come owing to
illness in his family. The Minnesota
silver headquarters are at the Planters
hotel. III. p. Hail.

CONFERENCE COMMITTEE
Named by the Silver Men to Meet
the Pops


the Pops.
The roll of states was called to as
certain the names of delegates appoint
ed to the other committees on resolu-
tions, national committee, permanent
organization and vice presidents of the
convention. motion was then made
that a recess be taken until tomorrow.
Judge G. r. Scott, of Omaha, said there
was no hurry. 1t took the RepubIi-
cans one week to marry Grover Cleve-
land, it should take at least as long as
that, to divorce the people from him.
He was member of the committee
on platform, and 1t would take some
time to get up a good platform A
general discussion followed in which
dozen different delegations took part.
The chair suggested that when an adj
journment was taken the delegates of
the various committees meet and ar
range for organization.
Finally it was decided to name a con-
ference committee to meet with a SINH
lar committee of Populists and the fol-
lowing were appointed: Hon. George
w. Baker, California, chairman: Judge
Scott, Nebraska; W. T. Foster. MIS-
souri,; VIM. P. st. John, New York;
B. F. Keith, North Carolina
A motion was then made that a
special committee consisting Of one
dele gate from each delegation be ap-
pointed to confer with a like committee
of the Populists for the purpose of set
thing the differences between the two
factions. Half dozen men at once be-
gan to debate the question and much
confusion prevailed. M. L. Olmsted. of
Oregon, said he was a Populist and the
Populists were ready to meet the silver
forces. Half a dozen other delegates
spoke in favor of the committee An
amendment was adopted directing the
committee to notify the Populists of
their appointment and requesting them
to appoint q similar committee
Mr.. Turner, Of Kansas attemped to
talk against the motion, but there were
bowls of ''sit down." and calls for the
question. Twenty men got UP and at
temped to address the chair. A point
of order was raised that Mr.. Turner
had already spoken twice and the
chair ruled that Turner must cease.
Gen. Warner was called for and re-
piled that he did not oppose the ap-
pointment of committee to confer
with the Populists, but he thought It
would be wise to have a smaller COM
mittee to see If the Populists would
agree to select a similar committee.
Mr.. Foster, of Missouri, said he had
been appointed one of committee by
the national committee to confer with
LIE 4 ODAIiSi COANSuliOH anu II ndQ
been decided that more representa-
tive committee be appointed. 1t had
been ascertained that the Populists
were anxious to confer.
The general trend Of all the speeches
was that the great object was to Sc
cure an endorsement Of Bryan and Sc
wall for president and vice president.
At every mention of the Democratic
nominees the delegates cheered. The
roll of states was then called for the
names of the men selected for the con-
ference committee. The convention
then adjourned till 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning.
