soIId wostorn Republicans.

The republican conventions that are
being held in states between the Mis-
sissippi and the Rockies furnish little
evidence that the free-coinage heresy
has hold upon the party in that Sec
ton of the country. This convention in
North Dakota indorsed the st. louis
platform, an effort TO tack a silver
plank to the resolutions being easily de-
feated. In South Dakota Senator Pet
tigrew used all of his influence TO pre-
vent similar Endorsement, but he was
overwhelmingly defeated. In Iowa the
congressman and other politicians who
seemed SO doubtful ut ST. Louis whether
their constituents would endure dec
laration for the gold standard found
that the delegates to the state conven-
ton were impatient with their timid-
ity, and were quite ready TO stand up
TO the rack" Indeed, there has been
little evidence of revolt among republic
ans in the central part of the union, out
side the states of Minnesota and Mich
igan, and in these two states the boilers
from the ST. Louis platform do not seem
to be gaining ground as time passes

They are probably deep-sea dwell

were found floating dead on the surface

the roof revealed the fact that the sup

EDITORIAL HOT SHOT.

From n. Y. Mail and Express.
Vice-President Stevenson will
probably never know whether he
is for free silver or for honest
money until he cOnsults a dream
book.
We hope Mr.. Bryan, on arriV-
ing from New Jersey yesterday
afternoon, was driven up Broad
way, and that his eyes were cast
upward.
Wheat is going up, but silver
isn't. The last-named cOmmO-
dity will join in the ascending
movement in November, and it
will go by the kite route.
On the whole. it is too bad that
the POpOcrats did not nominate
Henry George for governor. The
voters would have had great
deal of fun with Mr.. George.
Weyler, the Spanish tyrant, is
richly endowed whit heartless,
ness and inhumanity. What a
promising understudy he would
make for the murderOus sultan
of Turkey!
Candidate Watson continues
to urge Mr.. Sewall to cultivate
retiring disposition, but the lat
ter scOffiingly refuses. He has
no use for such qualities in the
show business.

The superintendent and secetary
of the Southwest"r1 insane asy-
lum, of San Antonio, have esti-
mated the necessary approprie
tions for the maintenance Of the
institution for the next two years
to be as follows:
For 1897 an appropriation OF
SI6O. 600 for the construction Of two
ward buildings to accommodate
300 white patients, an intirmary
for bed-ridden patients and two
brick cottages for the accommoda.
ton of 200 colored patients. The
estimate further calls for an apprO'
priation of $1l, coo for the engines,
boilers, pumps, electric lights
laundry machinery, drainage and
heat required for the new build
ings. An appropriation Of $4S, 46C
is asked for to put in operation the
proposed buildings during 1898

PHOTOGRAPHIC MARVELS.

In making instantaneous photo
graphs of the splash formed by a fall
ling liquid, Pro. Worthington has sue
ceeded in giving an exposure of less
than three One-millionths of second.
This is effcted with an electric spark
which can be so accurately timed
that the operator can select any de-
sired stage in the progress of a splash
within limits of error not exceeding
two one-thousands of a second. A
Photographic printing machine, exhib-
tied at a recent "conversazione" of
the Royal society had a roll of pre-
pared bromide paper fed in at one end
and turned out finished Photographic
prints at the other end at the rate of
1000 to 5000 per hour. These photo
graphs are uesd for illustrations in
