THE ALABAMA CONVENTION.
Address Of President on the Suffrage
Question.

Question.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, May 23.-The
feature of the constitutional convention
yesterday was the address of the presl-
dent, Hon. John r. Knox. Mr.. Knox
devoted his speech mainly to the suf-
plan, but the drift of his argument was
toward a ombination of what is best in
the plans of Mississippi, Louisiana and
North Carolina. Without declaring
himself in favor of the grandfather"
his statement of the law and the decis-
ions of the courts clearly pointed to his
own belief in it's constitutionality.
The pledge in the Democratic plat
form that no white man shall be dis
franchised has been one of the knotty
questions confronting the delegates.
Mr.. Knox cOntended that it only applies
to voters now of age and enjoying the
right, and does not affect those who
come on hereafter, so that the time may
be set after which all restrictions can
apply to both races alike, and an Incl
dent IN the address was the hearty ap.
plause which greeted the speaker S COM
pliments TO Mr.. Mckinley, as a man
who had proven himself the president
of the whole country.
The convention got no further yester-
day with It's business than the raising
of a committee on rules, order of busi-
ness, committees and the like.
General Joseph Wheeler, unexpected
ly to everybody, arrived in Montgomery
last night. Several delegates say that
he will be invited to address the con-
vention on the suffrage question.

AN AGED FEMALE MISER.
She Is Ninety-One Years Old and
Worth $4,000.

JACKSON, Miss, May 3-"Old Lady"
Siebles a decrepit old hag and miser
known in every town in this state, was
conveyed to the Mississippi insane hos
pital yesterday for treatment. The old
lady is reputed to be worth fully $685.
900, and it is known that she owns two
fine farms in the delta. She has been
a well known figure in railroad stations
and on trains throughout the state for
the past 80 years.
The old lady's personal appearan ce
has always been of the filthlest and
most squalid sort and among strangers
she poses as an object of charity. She
is in her ninety first year, and as far as
known has only one relative to inherit
her wealth. A number of years ago.
she created considerable sensation in
London by her queer actions and her
arrest caused considerable international
correspondence.
