Unique Nevada Convention Marked
By Excitinu Incidents.


Winnemucca, Nevada, Aug. "a. -
When the state silver convention con-
vened yesterday various reports were
submitted by the committee on creden-
tails on the matter of three contesting
delegations. The discussion at times
became very heated and at one time
the lie was passed. The majority re-
port was adopted and the unseated
delegates walked out of the hall. This
action makes fusion with the demo-
Gratis almost certain.
The democrats assembled. but took
recess to give the committee on
platform time to finish it's report.
The democrats cannot do much until
the silverites are heard from on the
question of fusion. The work prob
ably will not be concluded today, un-
less long night session is held.

An Australian millionaire, Mr.. James
Tyson, left behind him when he died
a fortune of fS.0O0,O00. One of the
many stories concerning him tells how.
on one occasion he was a passenger
on Queensland coasting steamer AS
usual, when travelling he declined to
undress at night and lay in his bunk
fully clothed, boots and all. He bad
taken thither with him, moreover,
three loayes of bread upon which to
subsist for forty eight hours in order
to save the expense of meals The stew
ards complained to the purser of the
crumbs which the millionaire's meth
DDS caused in the cabin But nothing
would induce Tyson to eat his loaves
elsewhere than in his bunk. Great was
his rage when at the end ofgthe voyage
he was charged not only full rate, but
one-fourth extra for having taken his
meals in his cabin"
