Chicago, Aug. 30.-The Grand Army
convention opened at 10:30 o'clock yes
terday. and from the start business was
pushed with energy. The opening ses-
sion was entirely of a social character,
and was open to the public. The after
noon meeting was OF an executive char
actcr.
No opposition has developed to Judge
Rassieur Of St. Louis in his candidacy
for the position of commander-in- chief.
and 1t is practically certain that he will
be elected on the first vote.
When the convention met in the after
noon, the first thing taken up was the
report of the pension committee, Tho
committee in the outset went at length
into the history of the work done by
G. A. II. committees in obtaining from
the last congress increases in certain
classes of pensions. 1t then discussed
the differences of opinion existing be-
tween the pension Office and those mem-
bers Of the Grand Army who hold the
opinion that the old soldiers have not
received sufficient consideration. The
report argued at length against the
statements that have been made by the
pension office, in reply to the original
criticisms made by members of the
Grand Army. but offered no suggestions
as to a direct line of policy to be pur-
sued.
The committee which had taken the
annual message of CommanderinC Chief
Shaw under consideration reported ap-
proval of all Of his suggestions, with the
exception of that relating to the change
of the date of Memorial day from May
80 to the last Sunday in May. On this
the committee reported adversely, and
their report was adopted by the conven-
ton. An adjournment was then taken
until today.

So far rs is known, the first botani-
cal experiment ever performed was
conducted by a Dutchman. He placed
In n pot 200 pounds of dried earth, and
in it he planted willow branch.
which weighed five pounds. He kept
the whole covered up, and daily
watered the earth with rain water.
After five years growth the willow
was again weighed, and was found to
have gained 1G4 pounds. The earth In
the pot was dried and weighed, and
had lost only two ounces.
The eXperimentalist therefore. looked
upon this experiment as supporting
the theory that plants REQUIRED no
food but water. But he was wrong.
Later it was discovered that much of
the increase in weight of plants was
derived from carbOnic acid gas in the
air.

Particulars of the horrible death Of
Mr.. C. II. Ryall in Uganda have just
rea ched this country. Mr. Ryall was
n promising young District Superin-
tendent of Police who had lately
Joined the Mombassa Railway from
India. Some few weeks ago he was
killed in his bed in railway carriage
by a lion. 1t appears that Mr.. Ryall
and two friends stopped in the car
riage to watch for the lion, and Mr..
Ryall had the first watch. One Of the
other watchers named Mr.. PARENT
woke up in the night and felt big
beast walking on him, which woke
him, and he raised his head and
rubbed his face against the belly.
At the time, says the East Africa
and Uganda Mail, from which we
quote the story, the beast had got Its
fore paws on Mr.. Ryall's bed. and one
hind leg on Parenti's body. His COM
panions heard cry from Ryall. Pa
remit put out his left hand and tried to
get n gun which was on the table. but
he touched the lion again, SO lie
scrambled up and jumped out Of the
window and hid behind some bush
Afterward the stationmaster and
some other men went to the carriage
with n big fire, and found the dool
shut. 1t was then found that Mr.
Ryall was gone. The carriage VIII
nll the blankets and other things was
covered with blood. At daylight some
blood was found on the outside of tht
carriage. just under the window
There were also many footmaIks Of
the lion and some marks Of lions cubs

which resulted in such terrible

ALABAMA IS A WONDER.
Belief That She Can Exceed Trial
Speed-Kearsar9e Accepted.

SpeeU-hcarSarxc Acceptcu.
Washington, Aug. 30.-The easy man
ner in which the Alabama exceeded her
contract speed by full knot leads the
navy department to believe that. driven
at her full capacity, she might exceed
her trial speed by a considerable fraction.
There was no speed premium paid on the
Alabama, and her builders probably felt
that it was useless to force her to the
utmost limit at the risk Of probable
mishap to the machinery. The Iowa,
which Is the only battleship which has
50 far exceeded the speed of the Alabama,
made17.O4 knots, and the speed premium
paid on her by the navy department
amounted to SILT ,42O.
The navy department yesterday finally
accepted the battleshlp Kearsarge,
which has been in commission for some
months. This will net the builders
$50, 900, heretofore held back, in ac-
corlance with law, pending the final ac-
ceptance of the vessel.
