lie, Texas, writes as that he had suffered
for several years with lung trouble,

chairman and .ay in the words wisdom
and judgment" The resolution was rath-
er a reflection on several members OF
the reform press for tine rOasts they have
given during the past year, and they
would prefer to see il come in some other
form, but after chewing the rag" an
hour it went through almost unanimous
ly.
APPORTIONMENT OF REPRESENTA-
TION.
One important change from the last
program came up for adjustment in fix
ing the rate of representation the feel
ing prevalent favoring a representation
based upon the Populist vote at its best
since 92, in respective states.
Ohio will thus have 40 votes in the
convention, and Texas, with 10000 pop
ular vote will have go. The inequalities
show up in New York Pennsylvania
and Oklahoma. The two former, because
they have a larger delegation based on
congressman than on Populist vote, while
Oklahoma. as territory, has $4,000 Pop
ulist votes, but must come under the ter
ritOry rating.
BASIS OF REPRESENTATION.
After considerable discussion the re-
port was adopted, providing for the rep
resentation in this way: Each state is
to be allowed one delegate for each con-
gresham and senator and one additional
delegate for each 1000 votes or majority
fraction thereof cast for Populist candi-
dates in 1892, 1894. or 1895. the highest
controlling, and each territory is to be
given four votes
The following is the number of dele
gates which this will give to the separ-
ate states and territories.

of the Anchor line, and all sorts of small
craft, were pitched and tossed about
until q final blast sent them from their
moorings. They were swept across the
river and struck the opposite bank with
in q few blocks Of each other. The loss
of life on these boats is thought to be
slight, as everybody was cautioned not
to jump and they would be brought safe
to land. The Vicksburg is almost a
total wreck. The City of Providence
was blown up on the Illinois bank.
The St. Louis and St. Paul Packet
company's steamer St. Paul had started
for Keokuk when the tornado struck the
city. She has not been heard of. She
had q full cabin. The Belle of Calhoun,
the Medill and the Libbie Conger, which
were maored near Choteau avenue were
almost totally broken up.
The loss to property a only be esti-
mated. A river a said than 81 $780,
would not repair and replace boats alone
that figured in the disastrous storm. AS
an instance, it may be stated that two
large barges belonging to the Mississippi
Valley Transportation company and
bearing 1O4 900 bushels of wheat, the
property of the White Commission COM
pany, We're blown away. When the
variety of goods that is transported by
river craft is considered, it will be seen
how easily the amount lost foot up.

ST.. Louis, May 29.-In comparison to
its size the fatalities and losses suffered
IN East st. Louis greatly exceed those
on this side of the river. The larger
part of the central portion of the city is

along the river back to the north of the
Eads bridge not a house is left standing
In the latter portion the loss of life is
terrible Scarcely a family seems to

ing killed, while in many instances
whole households were wiped out of
existence. A conservative estimate of
the dead is placed at 100.
A million dollars will not cover the
damage done to property in a few
minutes time, and how any person in
the path of the cyclone escaped is a
mystery to all who passed over the
devastated portion. The wind struck
the levee just north of the East St. Louis
elevator, about 8 80. The west half of
the Virgins ferry was the first to
suffer, and it was thrown far upon the
levees. After this partial jump, it
seems, the wind again turned, tearing
up the Vandalia freight house, killing
all inside.
Huschle's butcher shop, the Douglass
school. Sticks house, Sullivan's and all
the buildings south of Crooks street,
and as far down as the Kochler mills,
and east to the slough were leveled.
-Four Square Blocks Swept Away.
The four square blocks were abso-
lutely swept away, and many Of the in.
mates are beneath the ruins. Freight
r stand in all shapes and forms about
the yards Of the dwellings as we'll as
the railway yards, and several were car
ried beyond the vandalia embankment
and thrown into the slough. The Lake
House, Gross building, the fremont no.
tel, Martel House, vandalia round
house, 20 buildings around it, the Howe
institute, the watch tower, Lynch's and
Boards, all e the dyke, were demol-
ished.
Hundreds Of cars stand in all shapes
far away from their proper places. Two
engines in the Vandalia yards were
thrown down an embankment and de-
stroyed. Far down along the levee,
from the bridge. wrecks of steamboats,
are found.

HORSES AND FLUTES.
How the Sybarites' Enemies Are Said to
Have Won Battle.

Born originally in Greece, it had its
renascence in Italy, and Grisoni and
Fiaschl must be acknowledged the true
fathers of the art, however ready we
may be to admit that the courts of
francis |. and Henry ", by early adop-
ton of the offspring, adorned its devel-
opment with the courtly grace, luster
and urbanity of French influence, which
made the MENACE the art of the princes,
as another nation and age made hawk
ing the sport of kings.
They say" wrote Ben johnson,
princes learn no art truly but the art
of Workmanship. The reason is, the
brave beast is no fatterer. He will
throw a prince as soon as his groom"
The Greek theory of education, as we
find it in Plato, was of a twofold kind.
Zone of gymnastics relating to the
body, the other of music for the sake
of good state of the SOUL" briefly, as
Mr., Pater expresses it, "a gymnastic
fused in music" This system of edu-
cation the Greeks applied no less to the
training of horses than of men. In the
earnest eNtant treatlSe on rlQlDg,
Nenophon pointed out that horseman-
ship, like dancing, was dependent fun
damentally on the play impulse, that
for anything to be done well it must be
done for pleasure; what the horse
does under compulsion is done without
understanding, and there is no beauty
in it any more than if one should whip
and spur dancer" The horse must
become an artist, too, in his manner,
and use his limbs with rhy thmical free
dom.
SO far was this carried that Athenaeus
relates how the Sybarites taught even
their horses to dance at their feasts to
the music of the flute; and on one oc-
casion their enemies put their knowl-
edge of this habit to humorous account,
by taking out flute players to battle and
winning the cavalry over to their side
by causing the horses to dance to
favorite air, just as the Pied Piper
played the rats of Hamelin into the

UP-TO-DATE TEA GOWNS.
The Two Essentials Are Pretty COlorings
and Materials Which Drape Softly.

In no gown does woman appeal sc
strongly to man as in wrapper.
There is an air of homeness, of for-us-
alone, which appeals to him whenever
he sees wrapper-gowned woman.
Knowing this, women regret that
etiquette does not allow the DOMINIC of
wrappers outside of ones room. Nor
would an arrangement of this sort be
feasible, since it is the very exclusive
ness of the wrapper which makes it so
attractive.
A compromise between wrapper and
street gown is made, however, in the
tea gown. That garment has the long,
clinging lines of the wrapper. the soft
draped sleeves and the flowing train. At
the same time it is tight-ftting about
the waist, as demanded by Dame FASH
ion for all gowns in which the weaker
sex robes itself for appearance before
men.
These general lines, set down above,
are followed in all garments of this
character. But so varied are the details
of each that tea gowns are as diverse
as the flowers of the field and quite as
beautiful.
\ front of chiffon, soft silk or net,
draped softly, is indispensable to all up
to-date tea gowns. a band of stirring
or ribbon gathers this front at the
waist.
The craze for Louis jackets having
affected all female apparel, tea gowns
are made with elongated jackets, which
open in broad revers each side the front
and spread in the back to magnificent
train.
Sleeves are of several designs, all
unique and exceedingly long. The mos
quetaire sleeve is much favored, while
cuffs conceal the hand. One charming
sleeve was gored and tlounces of narrow
lace were inserted in the seams. The
bottom of the sleeves spread out into
bell, pointed, and edged with lace
This finish, by the way, is much used
on all negligee sleeves.
Persian, or printed warp silk, is the
popular material, if so expensive a stuff
could ever become popular. In lieu
of il soft challie may be used. This

| AS a hint to my sisters whose purses
are lean let me say that the beauty of a
tea gown depends not upon the price
of the material used. l have known
an exceedingly charming affair to be
made of material that cost but Is cents

orings and stuff that Grapes SOFTLY

The curtain was up on the first scene,
but the characters did not appear. In
their stead the stage manager glided
in and looked over the footlights. For
years." he pleasantly remarked, 'we
have talked of elevating the stage. You
will now see it done" He waved his
hand toward the prompt side and al
most instantly the stage slowly rose.
When it had reached height of perhaps
six feet the manager, with another ges-
ture, stopped it. "If any gentleman in
the audience is still unable to see the
stage" he affably remarked, "let him
speak right up and Wen cheerfully give
her another hoist" Then shrill voice
arose from the back row. Just a couple
o feet more, Mr.. Manager" said the
voice, IAN I'll have the ha-ha on this
dunn aigrette in front of mel" Then the
play went on.-Cleveland Post.
