an imaginary one taken by the
children from rooms 4, 5 and 6

lead the singing for the young
folks. The first scene is a parlor
in New York and the party are
talking, and singing of the trip
they are going to take over the
briny deep on the morrow.
The next scene is one where the
purity is on board the ship and are
sea sick and they are talking, and
singing about how sick they are.
They are laying around on floor,
trunks, chairs, etc in every direct
ion after awhile the party leaves
the room to get some relief from
their terrible sickness. After they
are gone two little boys Newton
Henton and Martin Magher,
dressed as sailors come in cabin
and sing a song entitled "Over the
harbor bar" which was sung for
purpose OF cheering up the 8 a sick
people. The boys sang very nicely.
While they were singing, the Capt

Warner) comes up and wants TO
know why they have disobeyed
orders, and threatens to punish
them Aunt Sue appears at this
time and intervenes in the poor
sailors behalf, she is followed by
the rest OF the party who all agree
with her that the sailors should
not be punished and that they
have been cheered up by the sailors
singing and finally the Captain
accedes to their request and the
scene closes with song by all the
party, this scene wa. quite real.

TO represent the Dock in Liverpool
and the examination Of baggage by

how to do.

Lexington, Ky, July 12.-After two
days of skirmishing the delegates TO
the republican state convention today
met for business. The district meet
ings were held during the forenoon and
the convention begins this afternoon.
After all the preliminary cauvassing
and conferences the lines of Atty.
Gen. w. S. Taylor for the guberna-
toriaI nomination remain unbroken-
District meetings resulted in Taylor
carrying eight and the anti-Taylor
men three of the IL districts. This
is the claim of the opposition. while
Taylor men claim eight positively and
concede one to opposition. with two
districts divided.

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP
Gets a Fresh Start in the City of Pingree-
Veto Promised.

Detroit, July 12.-Municipal owner
ship of Detroit street railways took a
great fresh start last night, in spite of
the recent adverse decision of the Mich
igan supreme court annulling the ap-
pointment of the street railway COM
missioners, and in spite of various 9TH
er kinds of opposition. After about
five hours of fierce argument and des-
perate filibustering the common coun-
ell, by vote of 10 to IA. passed the So
called security franchise ordinance.
This ordinance prescribes the terms
under which the street railways are to
be operated by their present owners in
the event of their reversion through the
municipal corporation (OrganiZed by
the late commissioners in behalf of the
city, failing to meet the payments ac-
cording to terms of purchase.
Mayor Maybury will veto the ordi-
nance, but Governor Pingree and the
other promoters of the municipal own
ership plan appear to be fairly conf
dent of securing four more votes neces-
sary to pass the ordinance over the
mayors veto.

MOB STILL RULES AT CLEVELAND.
Car Manned by Non-Union Men Attacked
Regardless of Passengers.

Cleveland, July 12.-The first car
which the Big Consolidated Street
Railway company tried to run with
non-union crew around the Union
street loop in the South End Ironworks
district met with trouble last night. At
the Erie railway on Union street OBJ
structionS were on the track, and when
the conductor, George Welsh, of Grand
Rapids, Mich, got OFF to remove them
a crowd threw stones at him. He re-
gained his car and went on, but more
stones came crashing through the win
dows, one of them hitting a woman
passenger.
When Harvard street was reached
three cars were found blockaded, the
tracks having been obstructed. No vio-
lence was offered the union crews on
them by the 1000 men and boys assem-
bled, but when Welsh came along he
was hauled off his car and brutally
kicked and beaten. His life might have
been taken had not the police arrived,
their appearance resulting in the scat

Chicago, July IA dispatch from

Come Up a Precedent in the Riot Trials
at wardner, Ida.
Wallace, Ida, July 12.-In the Paul
Corcoran murder trial the Spies case
in Chicago was referred to for a prece-
dent. The state proposes to prove a
conspiracy to commit crimes of the
character of that perpetrated at Ward
ner on April 90. and the law laid down
in the Chicago anarchist case will be
very largely relied on. The reference
to the Spies case was when Acting
County Attorney Forney in his OPEN
ing statement told the jury the state
would prove that the Western Fedora
tion of Labor advised such a general
programme as that carried out on April
20
The defense objected. Forney said
his proof was in documents found in
the miners snion safe and captured at
Burke. In the Spies case, he said, Herr
Most's book was admitted because il
was found among the captured
archives. The point raised was tenn
porarily waived.

NIaXinn.

Blackwood set a high value on Ma
ginn's contributions. "There is one pe-
ouliar excellence" he writes, sin this
writer which strikes us Scotsmen-his
easy, idiomatic English. No Scotchman,
however practiced as writer, is mas
ter of the English tongue so as to be
able to write in this way" But he new
er ventured to impart this opinion to
the voluble and irascible North.
Maginn was a brilliant but unman-
ageable creature. He soon drifted away
from Maya and devoted himself to its
rival and imitator, Fraser's. When his
habits had brought him to premature
gravo, Lockhart wrote his epitaph in a
score of jingling rhymes:
Here, early to bed, lies kind William Maginn
- 49,
Light for long was his heart, though his
breeches were thin,
But at last he was beat and sought help from
the bin.
