way, Is triangular plat, In which one OF
the most elaborate OF the convention dec
orations Is being worked out. In the
center is an immense circular bed, 3S feet
in diameter, in which are being planted
about ", 200 plants OF several varieties and
various shades. harinoniously blended
and symmetrically arranged. In the
center Is large silver star, an EN- bIem
which has been adopted by the conyen-
tion, and finds conspicuous place In the
center of the convention flag. From be-
tween the six points of the star radiate in
alternating colors broad bands OF red and
gold, gracefully curving and crossing each
other in pairs, each strip terminating In
a circle near the circumference of the bed.
This pert of the design Is not unlike
pair OF scissors, with one point OF the star
between the half-opened curving blades,
the circles resembling the handles. Be-
tween the pairs in the irreRufarfy shaped
spaces thus formed, the letters OF TIE
word "Mizpah" are displayed, one letter

circles on the outside OF the bed the
greeting is worked in foliage, "Welcome,

tion season. the plants will be in full de-
velopment, and the bright silver of the star
and brilliant red of the lettering, together
with the rich gold of the scroll work,
will make this bed one vf the finest and

of any in the city.

ST. LOUIS, No., June s.--A good deal OF
gossip has been caused by the sudden
departure Of Richard &. Keerens OF this
city, Chaunccy !. Filey's political OPP
ponent, for Canton, Ohio. 1t is said he
went on telegraphic request from Major
Mckinley. In regard to the matter, The
Republic says:
"Keeren's friends declare that the object
of his visit is TO confer with McKinley's
lieutenants throughout the country who
are to be Assem- bled before Hanna leaves
for st. Louis. The theory of the Filley
men Is that Mckinley proposes to call
Keerens of and insist that he shall make
no further warfare on the regular Re-
publican organization In Missouri.
