Theodore Roosevelt, nominated for

Although Theodore Roosevelt was a

made public commissioner of the me-

HIS PLEA FOR cANNIBALS.
Rev. John d. Patton Wants Liquor Kept
Away from the 10000 Inhabitants of
the New Hebridss Group.

New York, May 2.-Rev. John D.
Patton, of the New Hebrides, in the
course of his address before the
Ecumenical conference in Carnegie
hall said:
There are still 10000 to $1,000 cannibals in
the New Hebrides group. Great Britain
has prohibited all her traders on those
islands from trading In rum. ammunition.
brandy. opium and dynamite. Nearly
eight years ago / was sent to plead with
the Americans and their president and
congress that they would place their
traders under q similar prohibition. Pres
idents Harrison and Cleveland were both
willing to do II, but for some reason Il
was not done. Months ago we petitioned
President Mckinley and the congress
through him. to placs American traders
In the Hebrides under a prohibition. and
many thousand Americans have sent from
public meetings for him to do SO. But
now the assistant secretary Of state
writes that they cannot grant our Pc
tition without a special act Of congress
making II crime or misdemeanor for
American citizens In those islands to sell
intoxicating drinks and firearms to the
natives Of the New Hebrides and to make
provision for the execution Of this legis-
lation. Surely there are congressman in
the United States OF America who will
take up this subject and plead with con-
gress to pass an act TO save such ruin by
the traders Of America against these de-
fenseless islanders. who are not under
the protection Of any civilized nation,
but are at the mercy OF the lawlcss ira
ders. kidnapers and salvers who visit or
settle on those islands.

Room for All.

A bland and patronizing New Yorker
was passing through q raw and new
hamlet in the west, which its proud
founders had dubbed u. City, and were
sure would soon become u thriving
hive of human beings. Addressing q
lank youth who was lounging Mt the
door of one of the rude shnnties that
passed for ''shoe emporium" the
New Yorker inquired, sarcastically:
"Who is that important-looking gen.
tleman in the red flannel shirt?"
"That's Sam Peters," was the proud
reply. Hes just opened the new
post Office"
"And the tall person with no col

"He's Long Mike. Just opened a

METHODIST CONFERENCE.
Supreme Law Making Body of the Church
Convenes Vote Unanimous for Equal
Lay Representation.

Chicago, May 3.-The Methodist
Episcopal general conference by n
unanimous vote decided Wednesday to-
admit equal lay representation to all
Methodist conferences.
The vote for equal lay representa-
ton being taken, the fight for the
seating of the III provisional dele
gates was begun. Their cause was
relieved of an embarrassment by the
withdrawal of all rights to n seat by
Mrs. NJ. Y. McNiahan, of Griggsville,
Ill. The conference then voted to ad-
nit the provisional delegates.
The Twenty-ninth general confer
cnce of the Methodist Episcopal
church began here Wednesday. 1t
will last month and il is expected
to be the mos, important of any con-
ference since the memorable one OF
1874 when the south branch of the
church severed relations with the
main body over the slavery question.
The pit of the Auditorium theater
was filled with delegates from north
and south and east and west; Ware
and Smith from India, bronzed by the
sun of the equator; Hagan and Cam
phor from Liberia, and innumerable
others representing Methodism in all
parts of the world. Further back in
the big hall where the conference is
to be held were the spectators and the
provisional delegates. The peals of the
great pipe organ were still echoing
when venerable Bishop Thomas
Bowman arose to declare the con-
ference open.

Wedding EccentrIcItIes.

Invention has to be taxed in order
70 provide something entirely new for
wedding festivities. II one really de-
sires to be original; but that there
are minds adapted to that task, may
be guessed from the following real
occurrence: a couple in one OF the
New England states had recently an
ambition to begin their married life
under decorative circumstances. The
ordinary devices were too old. So, in
stead of floral bell. there was to be
seen above the happy pair the bor-
rowed legend: UNITED we stand"
The quotation has not yet been fin
ished. Still later comes another arfcc-
dote, equally true, which seems to
embody the modern spirit. Two hap
py young persons, named, perhaps,
Harriet Corson and John Eames, stood
up to be married. Above her head
was an elaborate floral device, with
her name in small electric lights.
Above the bridegroom appeared n
similar decoration. save that II was
his name that sparkled there. All
through the ceremony the lights
burned brilliantly. but at the words,

NEBRASKA REPUBLICANS.
Great Eathusiasm Marked the Session at
Lincoin-soms Declarations In the
Platform Adopted.

Lincoln, Neb., May 3.-Lincoln's
famous auditorium was packed with
1888 delegates and nearly 5000 spec
tators when, at two o'clock Wednes-
day afternoon State Chairman
Orlando Tefft called the republican
state convention to order. The gath
ering was enthusiastic in the extreme
over what the leaders believed TO be
the first step in returning the state
to the republican column at the No
vember election.
The platform lauds President McKin-
ley and indorses all legislation enasted
by the present congress Among other
things It says:
We, the republicans Of Nebraska, are
unlike our political adversaries, who In
late convention held high carnival over
imaginary evils threatening our couns
try. and adopted platforms which are
q standing protest against prosperity.
grandeur and glory. We rejoice that
we are citizens OF mighty nation whose
revenues are larger than at any previous
period Of Its history: whose treasury Is
overlooking with gold: whose agricultural
industries flourish as never before;
whose iaborers are more generally and
continually employed at profitable wages;
whose financial policy commands the
confidence OF the people ut home and
stimulates our trade with the nations
abroad: whose products from the farm
and the mill. from the workshop and
the factory are a mountain Of wealth:
whose commerce In Its stupendous
strides has out-distanced all competitors;
whose achievements In peace and glorious
victories In war are without a parallel:
all these are living evidences that II is
fulfilling the destiny for which II was
created and that democratic protests
cannot stay Its career.
The following state ticket was nom.
mated by the convention: Governor,
Charles II. Dietrich, of Hastings; for
governor, L. p. Savage, of
Custer; for secretary of state. George
W. Marsh. of Falls City: for treas
urer, William Steuffer, of Cummings;
for auditor, Charles Weston, of Sheri-

CONVENED WEDNESDAY.
Methodist General Conference at Chicago
Has Delegates from the Four Corners
Of the Earth-Lay Delegate Contest

Chicago, May 1.-The Methodist
Episcopal church as represented in
delegates from the four corners Of
the earth is confined to Chicago. OF
the $50 delegates who will attend the
opening meeting of the general con-
ference of 1900 nearly all have ar
rived. This number does not include
the provisional lay delegates who
have also arrived. The contest over
seating the provisional lay delegates
will follow the devotional exercises
which, conducted by the venerable
Bishop Bowman, will mark the open
ing of the great conference Wednes-
day.
Interest in the idea of re-uniting
the Methodist c.iu 'ch south with the
main body was intensified by the ar
rival of IS delegates from south Of
Mason and Dixon's line. OF these 65
were colored. Charles B. Galloway,
Of jackson, Miss, influential in the
southern branch of the church, Is
expected to make a vigorous plea for
q closing of the breach made in 1874

INTERESTING FIGURES.
Exports OF Liquor Into the New Island Pos
sessions Decreased Nearly . Million
Gallons since American Control.

Washington, May 2.-If. as the
temperance people have asserted, the
American army has carried the 50.
loon into the islands of the seas, II
has had curious effect on the liquor
trade Of the United States, and the
whisky trust will join with the W. c.
I. U. in denouncing the army. The
figures show that the export liquor
trade of the United States with the
world ut large has declined to n re-
markable degree since the islands
were turned over to US. For the nine
months ended April, /, 1899, the total
exports of spirituous liquors from
this country were 2,a17,174 gallons.
During two-thirds of this time Cuba,
Porto Rico and the Philippines were
still in control of the Spaniards. For
the nine months ended April 1 OF
this year, during all Of which time
the Americans controlled the islands,
our total export Of spirituous liquors
to the world at large were only l..
339,934 gallons. This is a positive
loss of 007,240 gallons.
