II Promises to Infuse Some Life Into the
Convention.
ST. Louis, June 18.-The vice presi-
dental situation bids fair to take the
convention ont Of the featureless rut
which has SO far marked the sessions.
It is as pretty a three c0rnered fight as
has been seen in a long while, and al
though the Platt adherents, with q
courage obtained from their leader who
never seems to lack it, claims "that If
Morton wants it he can have it, it is
nevertheless apparent that they feel
that Mr.. Reed would be the candidate
il his consent to make the race
could be obtained.
The New Jersey delegation, with
their candidate, Garrett Hobart, are
campaigning actively for him and have
obtained the support Of the Miller ele-
ment.
Mark Hanna, McKinley's manager,
still retains his silence as to which side
Of the New York controversy he will
endorse, claiming that until his candi-
dates receives the nomination it would
be unwise and unpolitic for him to do so.
At Mckinley headquarters it is said
that Hobart has 355 votes. Morton 800
aud Evans 400, the remainder of the
delegates being divided among several
candidates. 4% e e.

NAMED FOR A BISHOPRIC.
THREE PRIESTS HAVE BEEN
NOMINATED FROM THE do
CESE or WILMINGTON.

The consulters and irremovable rec
tors of the Roman Catholic Diocese. Of
Wilmington, has selected the names of
three priests from among whom they
will suggest that the selection of a
successor to Bishop Curtis be made.
Those selected are: Very Rev. John
A. Lyons, Vicar-General of the Dio-
cese; Rev. ID. j. Flynn, pastor of ST.
Patrick's Church, and Rev, M. X. Fab
Ion. Of st. Pauls Church. It is noe
imperative that Bishop Curtis's sue
cessor be taken from among those
named.
II now remains for the bishops of
the Province of Baltimore to select
three more names, which. with the
three already chosen, in be sent to
Rome. The bishops VII probably
make their selection next week. Two
weeks will elapse before the names
will reach Rome, and it win be about
three weeks after that time before the
necessary papers appointing the new
bishop will reach Baltimore.
The selection of a new bishop for
the Wilmington Diocese will have an
important bearing on the future of
Bishop Curtis 1t is aid to be the
present intention of Cardinal Gibbons
to make Bishop Curtis a member OF his
own household at the Cathedral.

SOME DAM TALK.

'lf the Park Commission proposes
to fix mp the dam in Brandywine Park
so that he people of Wilmington can
enjoy the skating there this winter,
the sooner ihey get at It the better
said a member OF the New Castle
county bar to an Evening Journal re-
porter this morning. "All last winter
the commissioners we're telling people
what they proposed to do along that
line this year. but thus far nothing has
been done. The work OF damming up
a lake there would not be more than
$500 to $500. At present but little
of any kind is being done out there be-
yond the putting up Of a retaining
wall and grading the sidewalk near
the Boulevard. Surely the expendi-
ture of a few hundred dollars OF the
$4,000 recently placed in the hands of
the commission could be well spent at
the dam.

presented by an exceptionally strong
company. Harry Clay Blaney, who Is
the leading comedian with a Boy

with a prominent lawyer the other day
and after a few hours ride stopped at
a hotel to rest. While seated on the
porch an old farmer who was seated
nearby invited Harry TO take a stroll.
AS they went along the old man oc-
casionally would look at IIarry's
crooked legs meandering down the
road. At length he said: well, young
man, when l was a boy l was a triile

AS Wilmington is one of the most
important jute manufacturing cities in
the country, a report received at the
Department OF State from Consul Saw
age, stationed at Dundee, Scotland, is
of especial interest. It shows that the
importation of jute from India for the
season 1856 amounted TO 1917 ,267
bales. an increase of 13S, ,269 bales over
the amount reaching Dundee the pre-
vious year. The forecast from India,
for the coming year. indicates short
age in the crop. The yield will be one
fourth below the average, and the
quantity available for export for
Europe will be between 2.250,000 and
10000 600 bales. So far there has been
no appreciable raise In the price of
the raw material, but it is thought
that as soon as the crop on hand is ex-
hausted, rise in price will take place

good catch would be destroyed by this
condition, but after the wrecks had
been located by the local experts the
fish came up two at a time, so that
they gladly sat through the early part
of the rain and became soaked to the

The wind was raw, and the shivery,
shaky state OF the sportsmen

will endure when they have convinced
themselves that they are having fun
A popularity OF the fishing was soon
noticed Did the boat move a dozen
feet of the wreck. the fish caught were
decidedly smaller, and they bit more
slowly. Upon the wrecks they were
not only large and ravenous biters,
( but frequently the smaller fish
snatched at the bait and hooked them
selves while the dipsey lines were

the big fish abode.
The depth of the water where the
larger fish were caught was from IS

perch took the bait.

ENTY MEMBERS HAVE BEEN

Yesterday marked the beginning of
the third year of the pastorate of Rev.
T. e. Montgomery at Olivet Presby-
terian Church. Mr.. Montgomery has
had most successful pastorate. Since
he has been at the church. two years,
seventy new members have been added
and at the last communion, a larger
number was present than ever before.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Montgomery
preached an anniversary sermon from
the text: And this is the will of Him
that sent me, that every one which
seeth the Son, and believeth on Him,
may have everlasting life, and l will
raise him up at the last day. st.
John, vi. 40.
He said in part: Shakespeare makes
Hamlet say Ito be or not to be, that's
the question: but with us that is not
the question. We are and what we are
to be is the question. 1T is not all of
life to live nor all of death to die.
More than the ashes of existence is ex-
pected of the moral agent. This life
is for a purpose, but not what the in
dividual may happen to choose. Re
sponsibility is not to a mans self. as Il
4 from nothing he became a god. Con
! corning the supreme end Of virtuoui
action, philosophers have held dineren
/ views. Some make happiness the su
preme end, and they press forward TO
I advantage in the world. Some mak'
perfection the goal, and they cultivate
\ honor, seek for knowledge aid hop,
: for purity. Others make rectitud'
: their aim, and there they rest. Gods
will is their pleasure. His justice theii
! delight God has for every one a wisl
| and a will.
"As ] live, saith the Lord God,
/ have no pleasure in the death of The
I wicked" The sinner has a misconcep
( tion of God; he supposes God hate.
/ him as he hates himself. He does no
| see how much God wishes him 10 live
! He does not understand how lie ca;
I be saved from his sin, but not save,
with his sin. Gods decree is that sll
t d
the sinners who love their sin NOR
than they do His Son.
Gods will is in favor of those wh'
are in company with His Son. A won
derful inheritance is about to ho dis
tributed Everlasting life or a perPet
ual annuity is ready for the heir "a
soon as his name is written. The mos
precious thing in the world is life, an
I that is one of the things without limi
to all that are in heaven. Even a III
on earth cannot be estimated in ma
| terial things, but a soul in heaven e1
terminates the thought Of calculation
This inheritance has this one inpor
tant condition-the Son of God mus
: be understood and accepted.
, Love kills when not centered on pei
sons. It is impossible to love a prir
ciple, a doctrine or a church. God
I love. Love and devotion to the 80
; will secure an inheritance of everlasi
