POpnlist Convention Meets.

The populist county convention met at
10 O'Clock today in an adjourned session.
Lewis Clark occupied the chair and
w. f. Stoddard was made secretary.
The minutes of the previous meeting
were read and approved. The chair then
appointed committee Of three ON Gre
dentials composed of the following: !.
w. Lowe, Anatone Heitfeld aud w. 7.
Wyatt. F. ID, Culver was proposed as
delegate to represent Fletcher precinct,
no one being present from that locality
This, however was voted down BY the
convention. Some discussion was in.
dulged in during the wait on the report
OF the committee on credentials. One
delegate stating the democrats, he did
not believe, intended to treat them fairly
as he had heard remarked on the streets
by democratic delegates that the populist
party did not amount to ANYTHING as
there was not to exceed IS i'm the town.
and that they (the democrats) did not
propose to give them anything. Chair
man Clark told the delegates that be-
cause some democrats got full of booze and
talked that way it it was no sign they
would not receive fair treatment from the
democratic convention.
An adjournment was taken for dinner,
and Immediately following the assem-.
bling of the delegates after dinner the
committee on credentials reported. They
found all present entitled to seats IN the
convention except Johannes Hansen,
state organizer for the middle. of, the.road
populists.
MIR. Hansen arose and made a brief
address, stating his position and declar-
ing ne did not wish to sit in populist
convention called together for the pur.
pose Of fusing with the democrats.
VIM. Mohl, until recently chairman of
the populist party, then made brief ad-
dress stating his position on fusion. AT
the conclusion Of his remarks he, in com.
pany with +. R. Wills and Mr.. Hansen,
walked out of the convention.
The convention then resolved itself
lnow reduced to I6 delegates) into exec
ative session, and then chose confer
ence committee of FIVE to confer with a
similar committee from the democratic
convention to agree on division of the
offices.

chairman of the committee on creden-
recess was taken until their arrival. At
q O'Clock the chairman called the con-
vention to order and proceeded with the
regular order Of business. The first to
come up was the report of the committee
on credentials, which was presented and
read and adopted as read. This report
showed that neither Lenore nor Webb
Ridge were represented in the conven-
ton. 1t also showed that in the precinct
of Beeman, which is entitled to four del
egates. nine had been chosen as dele
gates. AS remedy it was moved that
all the delegates from this precinct be
allowed seats in the convention, casting
the four votes, thereby giving each man
four-ninths of vote.
The report of the committee on perm
anent organization and order of business
was read and adopted. There was con-
siderable discussion over parts of this re-
port, but it was finally adopted as pre-
scented.
Following this came the report of the
committee on resolutions. This was the
event Of the day-it was generally known
that the report of this committee meant
an arraignment of the republican party.
The attention paid the reader of the re-
port, as his stentorian voice rang through
the hall, over the transoms and through
the doors, was Grammatical, and upon the
conclusion of his fairy tale, shout OF
applause went up and through the hall
ventilator. Below is the larger part OF
the platform:
"We, the democrats of Nez Perez
county, desire an honest, economical and
business-like administration of public
affairs, and to further declare our views,
be it
Resolved, That we endorse the princi-
pie enurciated by the democratic ma.
tional convention held at Kansas City,
July4 1870, and pledge our support to the
nominees of the convention, William ].
Bryan for president and Adlai f. Steven.
son for vice president.
Resolved, That we endorse the plat
form made by the democratic convention
at Pocatello, and pledge our hearty sup
port to the nominees on the democratic
state ticket.
At this time committee of three from
the populist convention came before the
convention and stated the object of their
| visit, namely: t. confer with like com.
mittee of democrats as to the distribution
of Offices, after which committee of five
consisting of William Sigler, J. d. Ora.
ham, R. Skey, Eben Mounce, and J. O.
Barbour was named by the chair and the
convention took recess until q O'Clock
| The democrats offered populists one
commissioner, one representative and as.

reached. In addition to the above the
lpopulists want another representative

One OF the greatest discoveries ever
made was the result Of pure accident.
Il was in the year 1896, The citizens
OF Munich had Just witnessed tile first
performance Of Mozart's opera, Don
Juan" Tho theater was deserted BY
all except one man. Alols sennefelder'
who, after making round OF inspeo-
ton in the building TO soc that there
was no danger Of fire, went to his room
TO stamp The tickets OF admission for
the following day. When he entered
his room he had three things In his
hand-a polished milestone. which he
had bought for sharpening his razor; a
tloket-stamp. stlll molstened with
printing ink, and check or the treas
urer 81 t,---..asrr FOR his weekly
salary. l1-he placed the latter on
the table gust OF wind swept II high
up in his room. and then deposited II
in a basin OF water. sonnefelder dried
the paper as well as he could, and
then weighted Il down with the whet-
stone. upon which he had oarelessly
placed the printing stamp. When he
returned 10 his room the following
morning, he was astonlshed at seeing
tho letters printed upon the dampen-
ed paper. a thought came to him. He
wondered whether by some such means
he could not simplify his work OF con-
tlnually copying the songs OF the
chorus. He went out and purchased a
large stone, commenced making ex-
poriments, and, as we all know. final
" discovered the art OF printing from

At Milford Haven our chaplain has
had an odd experience. There are three
Welsh battalions o. militia training
there, and on the first Sunday 1856 Yves
leyans and other Protestants were
marched TO our church, which is two
miles from the camp. When they re-
turned from the service all the men
changed their religion" In order to
avoid such a walk. The matter was at
once brought before the authorities,
and arrangements made for a special
parade service to be held IN the camp
so the men have re-

NJ. Trouillebert a talented painter
and pupil Of Corot, recently died in

he became rather celebrated In con-
sequence of singular incident. Alex
andre Dumas had bought for 1900
francs picture by Corot, of which he
was very proud, and which was ad-
mired by artists and amateurs. Zone
day Trouillebert, happening to see this
picture, recognized it as work paint
ed by himself under the title "Fontaine
des Gabourets," and sold at the time
for 100 francs to a picture dealer. He
brought an action, gained It, and OBJ
tanned the right to inscribe his name on
the picture. The incident gained
