plause occurred. but 1t was of short
duration Mr.. Bryan's object in going
to the platform was to present MINOR
ity report, TO that of the credentials COM
mttee. He is a member of the COM
mittee by proxy.
Chairman Head of the committee had
not yet put in an appearance with tho
majority report Of the committee, and
Delegate Kerr of Pennsylvania was dis
patched for him.
In the meantime, midst the confusion,
Delegate Robinson of Alabama jumped
to his chair and shouted motion that.
pending the arrival of Mr. Head with
the report, Gov. Beckham of Kentucky
address the convention. This motion was
put through a megaphone and declared
carried. Ii was some moments before
Gov. Beckham was heard from and
when he was he requested to be excused.
Get Music Instead of Speech.
A motion was then adopted that
Bourke Cochran of New York be asked
to address the convention. The secre.
tary announced through the megaphono
that Mr. Cochran was not at the hall,
He then called out: viii the band

The band was quick to respond with

Bryan Turned Down.
St Louis. Mo-, July S.-Before adj
journing last evening the Democratic
convention. by vote of 64I TO 29o,
turned down Mr.. Bryan. He had beer
greeted with cheers, had been vigorously
appauded all through his speech. but
was voted down.
This is admitted on all sides to be
final test of the strength of the Parke!
movement Practically all the Hearst
nrun n
kins and Cable and the anti Harrison
delegates in Illinois, and yet without the
vote of Illinois at all, the Hearst Bryan
combination was only able to poll much
less than one-third of the convention,
thus finally demonstrating that the radi-
cal element will be wholly unable TO pre-
vent Parker's nomination. which Is now
certain, and which probably will come on
the first ballot.
Mr.. Bryan expected to win. He had
no idea of the catastrophe which was
about to befal him. He stirred the gal.
leries to a degree of enthusiasm which
never has been equaled in a recent
Democratic convention, except when he
made his cross of gold speech at Chit
cago.
The delegates were not moved by his
eloquence in the slightest degree, and
while the gallery crowds howled them
selves hoarse for Bryan while they
shouted malcdictions against Quinn and
Hopkins. state after state calmly and
stoidly recorded itself in opposition to
Bryan and Hearst. The reputation was
complete and beyond all question. Bry
ans coquence failed to influence a vote
on the floor. although. apparently, he had
thousands with him in the galleries.
Champ Clark took his place as perma-
nent chairman, delivered his speech and
the convention adjourned until 10 this
morning.

Resolutions of Respect.

Resolutions on the death of
Mrs. Minnie l. Smith by the
Home Mission Society of the
Methodist church, San Angelo
Texas.
Whereas God in his infinite
mercy has called our beloved sis
ter, Mrs. Minnie Doose Smith,
from her bed OF lingering pain, to
the home where there is no more
suffering; AID whereas. for many
years she has been one of the
leaders in all our Home Mission
work; ever ready with a JOYOUS
heart and willing hands to ans
wer each call made upon her e;
whether it was to visit the father
less and widows in their afflictiou
or to seek out the poor and carry
the sunshine of her presence into
the dark places of other lives, or
whether 1T was to serve in the
offices of the society, always
prompt, efficient and cheerful,
she was always there.
Therefore be it resolved: That
though we bow in humble submits
sion to the will of the all merci-
full Father, we shall miss our sis
ter everywhere: though we know
she has but gone home, and we
sorrow not as those who have no
hope, for surely these are they
who have come up out of great
tribulation, and have washed
their robes and made them white
in the blood of the Lamb.
To the Borrowing hus band and
motherless little ones, to the mo-
ther, father, sisters and brothers
who watch he'd her SO tenderly
through the weary weeks of pain,
we tender our most heartfelt
sympathy, praying that the dear
Lord in whom she trusted, will
comfort and sustain them now,
and at the last bring them into
that haven wherein she has found
rest.
Resolved that copy of these
resolutions be- sent to the heart.
broken family and that a page
shall be set aside in our minutes
devoted to the memory of her who
has but gone before us and is now
safe in the arms of jesus.
