favor of the Nebraska candidate, giv-
ing him the unanimous vote of all
the states and territories. The con-
vention managers had already agreed
that this was sufficient work for the
day. and the vice presidential nomi-
nation was allowed to go over until
to-day.
Next TO the demonstration for the
party candidate, that greeting the an
nouncement that Imperialism was to
be the paramount issue of this cam
paign was the most significant of the
day. Senator Tillman read the plat
form, and with measured force
brought out the fact that imperialism
was now given the first place among
the issues of the party.
Another stirring event of the day
was the appearance of Webster Davis,
formerly assistant secretary of the
interior, under Mr.. McKinley's admin
istratioh, in a speech severely ar
raigning the republican party for it's
lack of sympathy for the Boers and
formally announcing his allegiance to
the democratic party.

place in the body of the New York
delegation. He bowed and smiled and
his lips moved to address the chair
man. But as well might he have adj
dressed Niagara, for the waves of the
tumultous sound drowned everything
and he dropped back in his seat. When
the delegates had time to think, they
began to ask each other if Hill was
to be the hero of this convention, for
another such demonstration, at an OPP
perfume time, might carry the con-
ventiop of it's feet and place him on
the ticket with Bryan.
The routine proceedings were
quickly disposed of. But even in this
there was opportunity to give further
tribute to the New Yorker and when
Judge Van Wyck's name was called
as the New York member of the plat
form committee, tremendous call
for Hill, mingled with Kisses for
those who opposed him, greeted the
announcement. With the committees
appointed there was nothing to do
but await their reports, and the con-
vention took a recess until o'clock.
At o'clock the committees were
not yet ready to report and another
adjournment was taken until $3.50 p.
m.
1t remained for the night session to
bring the most remarkable demon
stration of the entire day. Again the
great structure was invaded by thou
sands, and the moving picture took
on new glories of color and animation
under the glare of countless electric
lights. For the first hour the pro-
ceedings were formal and profitless,
but when at the close CT the speech
of Permanent Chairman Richardson
he paid a glowing tribute to William
j. Bryan, pandemonium broke loose
and frenzied demonstration lasting
half an hour took place. The state
standards were wrenched from their
sockets and, borne aloft, battle of
supremacy was waged between the
standard bearers, urged on by the
deafening applause of the entire null
| titude
Finally order was sufficiently re-
| stored to enable the chairman to rec
ognize Delegate ]. G. Johnson, OF
Kansas, who made motion that the
convention adjourn until 10:30 n. m,
to-day, and at 1894 the chairman de.
clared the convention adjourned.

conditions for acquiring malaria are favor

mosquitoes malaria is almost unknown.
That mosquitoes can transmit malaria has
