them headed for Frankfort. No ses-
sion of the Legislature was held here
but formal meeting was held at
Frankfort by the Democratic members.

adjourned until tomorrow. Mean
while Speaker Trimble, president of
the Senate L. H. Carter, Clerks Crom-
NELL and Leigh and Sergeant Arms
Haley remained in this city awaiting
the result of the conference which was
expected to bring some order out Of the
present condition of affairs. They re-
manned here over night but can easily
reach Frankfort tomorrow morning
in time for a session if that course is
thought wise.
During the early part Of the day the
Democratic Legislators were in a state
of perplexity which was increased by
the announcement from Frankfort that
Governor Taylor. contrary to their I'M
derstanding had not reypked his order

THE BOERS AGAIN SUCCESSFUL

The exultatioa nt the English over a few successes achieved hy Lord
 Roberts in the Orange Free State has been rudely disturbed by the au- nouncemeut of the capture hy tbe Boers of convey of one huudred wagons, with seven artillery guns, and loss of three hundred and fifty men of Colou,-l Brndw,nd's command This successful coup of the Boe,s is the more remarkable from the fact that it occnrr> d within twenty miles of Roberts headquarters, at Boemfontein, and was accom- lished with an inferior force and practically without lpss of men. The British officers appear not to have protited by the lesson of similar sur pri-es iu the past and walked directly into the ambush laid for them.
 Whil" the reverse Is iu itself not very serious to the British, lis moral effect may be considerable, us without doubt many Bocrs, disherrttutd hy succes. sive defeats, will regain confidence and fight wlth renewed vlg"r The incl. dent will also have the effect to briug the British To their senses and to re- alize the difficulties which confront Lord Roberts on the road to Pretoria. It must be remembered that the dis tiuce iron. Bluemientein to the capital Of the Transvaul is nearly three hun dred miles, through mountainous country well adapted to the defensive tactics of the Buers, afiording them op- portuuity :o harrass the invaders with Il miuimum of danger To themselves.

The trouble with queer things Is rheir cuntasion, says the Philadelphia Press. Were the Sheldon newspaper experiment permitted to slip into the oblivion which, i'll the practice, It so ludustriously aud patiently earned, one e.Suld remember it only as harmless But inst fate will not allow 1t so easy a taking of. On tine contrary II must have take of" of another kind quite as hard upOG the senslbillties of Chris tiau people. The mayor of Mounds vile, W.

Un- <luubtedly the unfortunate plan of this enthusiast is but the predecessor of all epidemic of these crusades. It Is, however, an encouraging sign that not only the cloth in particular. but in general sensible men of all faiths and no faith seem to regard such travesties upon the name of the Nasarene with an equal abhorrence.

TnE visit of Queen Victoria to Ire. land is ill,umed, as the Irish people are in no moot to extend welcome to royalty. The feeling against Eng land, so general among the Irish people, has been intensified by their sympathy with the South African republics in their valiant effort to preserve their i'll. dependence, and the bravery shown by the Irish soldiers in South Africa is falsely interpreted in England us iudi- catiye of the loyalty of the Irish people. While no offense is likely tJ be offered the queen in Dublin, yet it Is not reasonable to expect that her reception by the popnlace will be cordial.

be started at once in this state, and
that pastors should be sent out bearing
the name of one elector at large. the
vote for whom is meant to be a "con-

into a committee to canvass those
known to be interested in the principle
of the movement and to endeavor to
secure a candidate willing to permit the
use of his name on the pastors,
