Oped in the Situation.
Kansas City, Mo-, July 5.-Very little
that was tangible was developed in the
vice presidential situation. although the
Stevenson candidacy apparently met with
favor, and there seemed to be a possible
ity of this being the solution of the
question. The determination of the In
diana delegation to put Shively in the
'ield caused little diversion during a
'act Of the day, but Mr.nShively distinct

ton, ne said that after what he had told

thar he would be a candidate. Friends of
Stevenson .aid that they would have
been perfectly willing short time ago
t. have supported Shively, but after the
positive statement made yesterday that
Shively would not be a candidate and
would not be presented by Indiana, they
now felt that they should stand by Steven
son. The demonstration made over Rjll
In the convention was taken by some to
mean that the convention would be
stampeded for him, but Hill does not
think so, and 1t is possible that If he
makes speech on the platform he will
make it plain that he could not be a cam
didate on Bryan platform. He says en-
phatically that he will not be nominated.
Two other booms remain in much the
same condition they were Tuesday. Both
Towne and Sulzer are In the race. though
the convention does not seem inclined to
favor them. The Towne men claim they
have the support Of Bryan, and that If
sixteen to one is put in the platform their
man will be the logical candidate. The
New York men say that the action Tues
day for John W. I<ellar is in earnest, and
that they will try and secure his nominal

A Great Parade,

An interesting feature OF the conven-

the parade, which took place Wednesday
evening. Crowds began to gather
throughout the entire line of march an
hour before the parade was scheduled to
start, and when ut $50 o'clock the head
of the column swung into Grand avenue
from Seventeenth street, standing room
was at premium, and all available To-
cations in windows and on the roofs of
the lower buildings were occupied. The
column moved up Grand avenue to
Twelfth street. thence making Il tour of
the principal streets. past the hotels and
newspaper offices.

Severe Storm.

The Storm that occurred wednes-
day night Of last week preceded by
the hot wave, Of which mention was
made in our last issue, played havock
down on the Gist Briggs place some
"a miles from Union of some miles
to the right Of the road to Lockharts.
The reports are somewhat conflicting
as to the damage, but the main facts,
AZ we have gathered are about as fol-
lows:
Messrs. Munro and Bird Ivey and
family were occupying the Briggs
house; the family had retired. At a
late hour the storm struck tho place
and partially wrecked the house over
them. 1t was little short OF a mir
acle that none OF the family were
killed. They all escaped injury, but
their household effects and even their
wearing apparel were scattered to the
four winds.
The storm, besides demolishirg the
residence, wrecked six or eight other
buildings on the place, killed one
mule, one COW and so seriously 10
jured horse as to render 1t unfit
for service, IL 1t does rot die Of its
injuries.

and it was thought trouble would re-

his daughtos-Mattie and w. r. Ian
ming ran away and were married at
p. m. by Rev. w. f. G.. Humphries,
assisted by Bolton Millwood. This
seemed to BIO a little too much for
the irate father and he had the bride
and groom arrested yesterday (Thurs.
