An oiI MlniSt r.

Many stories are told Of DR.. Cad
Hitchcock, who was a minister in Penn
broke, Mass, before and during revolu-
tionary times. he was noted for his
patriotism and the fearless expression
Of his views when opportunity offered.
BE was chaplain in the army at one
time, and preached many stirring ser
mon to the men.
The first sermon he published was a'-
dressed to a military company at the
time when the French Were making IN
roads on the northern frontier. The
year before the breaking out Of the rev.
olution he preached his famous "Elec-
ton Sermon" which reused Gov. Gage
to great wrath, and struck even the
minister's stancheSt friends as Had
yised. 1t is said that when Doctor
Hitchcock wrote 1t, the Governor was
not expected to be in the audience at
the time Of its delivery.
When it was found that he was there,
one Of the minister's friends suggested
that O slight modification Of some OF
the strong expressions in the sermon
would perhaps be advisable; but DR..
Hitchcock was of another mind.
my sermon is written" he calmly
said. "and il will not be altered
On his journeyinss to and from Bos-
ton he usually fell into conversation
with any one with whom he was
thrown. One day he travelled TO Bos-
ton in company with sailor Of whom
he asked p.any questions as to his
name, residence, habits and tastes.
AT last the sailor began questioning
in his turn: What is your name:' he
asked.
Il am Cad Hitchcock from Tuuk'
(the name of his parish.).
Three Of the worst names ever
heard" cried the sailor, bluntly. great

A Quorum Cannot be Held in the
Senate After the Tariff Bill is OuI
Of the Way.
The prospects are that there will bl
no other legislation of importance Al
this session of Congress, except the
tariff bill. 1t has been stated before
that neither the Hawaiian annexation
treaty, nor any currency legislation will
come up in the Senate. 1t is also known
that quorum cannot be maintained IL
the Senate after the tariff bill is out OF
the way. As soon as the bill is sent tc
the House the Senate will take up the
general deficiency bill, and i is e1pec-
ted that considerable time will be occu.
pied by it. The Senate will consider .
number of nominations over which there
is some contention. 1t has been sug.
gested that the Alaskan boundary treaty
may be called up, but as it will provoke
considerable discussion It will be al
lowed to 90 over unit. next session.

EVERETT FOR GOVERNOR.
state Ticket Nominated by the Gold
Democrats of Massa chusetts.

BOSTON, Sept SO-The state convention
of the Bay State gold Democracy to-day
nominated the following ticket:
Goyernor-DR. WILLIAM EVERETT
TER.
secretary-BERNARD WOLFE.
Treasurer and Receiver General-HOR-
ACE L. TOBEY.
Auditor-HARRY DOUGLAS.
Attorney General-WM. MCLENCH.
Moorfield Storey was the permanent chair
man of the convention His speech on as
Stunning the gavel was in large part review
of the tariff legislation of Congress and of
the currency question. 1t also gave express
sion to unalterable opposition to the plat
form of the Chicago national Democratic
convention.
The platform opens with the following
declaration regarding the currency: I'VE
adhere TO and insist on the maintenance of
the present gold standard. We believe that
the free coinage of silver at a ratio of 16
to when the present commercial ratio is
nearly 40 to L would be destructive to the
interests of wage earners, of depositors in
savings banks, of the insured, of the vet
Grams and of the whole people. We believe
that the payment of debts, public or pri-
vate, in dollars of less intrinsic value than
those in which they were contracted is dis
honorable and dishonest Therefore we re-
affirm our allegiance to the great financial
principle which guided Jefferson, jackson
and Cleveland; that it is the sole function of
the federal government in monetary matters
to provide standard of value and to coin
metallic money, every dollar of which shall
be of equal intrinsic value; that nothing
but this coined money shall be legal tenders,
and that the government shall not carry
OF banking business.
I'VE demand that some safe plan be
adopted whereby our legal-tender paper. sill
and silver certificates shall be with
drawn and a banking system under proper
control be established through which ade-
quate banking facilities may be furnished
to all sections of the country.
I'VE believe that currency based on
business assets and issued upon proper safe
guards responds automatically to the
necessities of commerce and permits the
issue of an elastic medium of exchange in
those sections where it is most needed for
the creation of new enterprises and the en-
poyment of American labor"
In other paragraphs the platform declares
for tariff for revenue only and the abolition
of "al duties which tend to create or MAIN
tain monopoEes and trusts demands 1.-The
extension of the principle of civil-service
reform to all postoffices, to the consular
service and within the State to municipal
offices

LUMPS OF COPPER
Taken from the Hold of the Long
Sunl<en Steamer Pewabic.

MILWAUKEE,, Sept. S0.-The steamer Fl.
A. Root, which has been at work on the
wreck of the steamer Pewabic for the last
three months. arrived here yesterday with
six hundred tons of copper that had been
recovered from the wreck by means of the
Smith diving bell. OF the copper which the
steamer has on board one lump weighs
1850 pounds, another 5,766, while the re-
mainder Is in Jumps of from three hundred
pounds up. The copper seems not to have
suffered from the water. where it has lain
buried for thirty years. The Pewabic, Di-
rector George S. Campbell says, lies on an
even keel and the woodwork has rotted to
the depth of one-sixteenth on an inch The
machinery is covered with a coating of rust.
but not so thickly as was expected. 1t is
said the company is very well satisfied with
the work of the bell and the expedition will
prove a profitable investment. So far the
Wreckers have seen nothing of any bodies,
but these may be found later, as only a
small portion OF the upper works has been
Among she relics which the Root brought
back Is the mast of the wrecked steamer
