Whitney Violated TiIden's Confidence
and So Hancock Was Nomina-
ted to Shut Out Henry 3.
Payne of Ohio.

At the time of his third presidential
campaign in which Grover Cleveland
was the successful candidate for the
presidency, | had a conversation with
ex-Mayor William R. Grace of New
York, who took a leading part in the
politics which eliminated in the nomi-
nation of President Cleveland at Chi
cago in 1892. | asked Mayor Grace if
there was any truth in the report.
widely circulated, that Samuel ]. Til
den was not parti dlarly friendly to
Grover CleveIands nomination in
1884.
Instead of answering my question
Mayor Grace asked in turn: Did
ever tell you how It happened that
Governor Tilden was not renoplinated
by his party at the St. Louis conyen-
ton of 1880, and how, at last, the con-
vention concentrated upon General
Hancock"
My reply was that the presumption
among Republicans was that Tilden
had forbidden his friends to make any
effort to nominate him.
That wasn't the reason at ALL"
Mayor Grace replied. THE real reason
is known to a few persons only, and
there was an agreement at st. Louis
that it should not be told. The con-
vention, however, is now so long in
the past that don't think violate any
condolences in telling you what the in
side history of that convention was.
Following the Inauguration OF
Rutherford B. Hayes as president,
there arose a pretty general feeling
among the leading Democrats that at
the next national convention of their
party there was only one course to
pursue as regards the presidential
nominee. That was to nominate Sam
uel j. Tilden by reclamation as the
party'S protest against the manner in
which Tilden had been treated four
years before. / remember that sew
eral of US who were close t. Mr.. Til
den talked with him about the matter;
and his position was that the party,
to be consistent, could do nothing else
except nominate him by reclamation.
Otherwise, it could not justify its
claim that he had been unjustly de-
prived Of the Office of president, and
would put itself before the country
as being insincere in that declaration.
I speak in this manner with entire
impersonality,' said Mr.. Tilden. 1t is
not because am affected, but because
OF the principle involved that l wish to
see this thing done.
Now he went on to say, I shall
write a letter which must not be read
or revealed to anyone in any way I'M
til after the party has made its nomi-
nation for president. But when it has
renominated, as it should do. the can
didate of 1876 upon the issue that he
was fraudulently deprived of office in

Inside Story of a Convention

that year, the letter is to be read to
the convention In it shall acknowl
edge the propriety and consistency of
the action of the party in nominating
me, and then I shsl ~ tate that because
of the precarious condition OF my
health it will be impossible for me to
accept the nomination. IT. this way
our party's record for consistency will
be unimpeachable.
I'VE asked Mr.. Tilden to whom he
would commit his letter, and he re
piled that he would put it in the hands
of William C. Whitney. under pledge
of confidence not to reveal it or its
contents or to let it get out, even, that
such letter had been written until
after the presidential nomination had
been made.
well. we went to St. Louis, ready
to see to it thai Mr.. Tilden was nomi-
mated by reclamation; but imagine our
surprise when, after we had been there
a day or so. we began to hear that
Senator Henry B. Payne of Ohio would
be the successful candidate for the
presidential nomination. We asked
the delegates who were saying this
what made them think so and the an
swer was that Bill Whitney was work
ing for Senator Payne, his father-in-
law.
But we protested. Mr.. Whitney

Salem n. Wales Was Astonished to
Find That He Was Millionaire
and Didn't Know How
to Act.

A delightful character was Salem
H. Wales, father-in-law of Elihu Root,
Republican candidate for mayor of
New York in 1876 and in his day one
of the foremost citizens of the me-
tropolis. 1t used to be his custom
on each New Years day to go about
among his friends and say to them:
Have l done anything in the year
just ended to offend or annoy you?
If / have / want to ask your pardon,
for, after all, friendship is of more
value to a man than money"
One day in the autumn of 1901 |
met him as he was leaving the office
Of a safe deposit company, in whose
vaults, he was in the habit of telling
his friends, he kept his modest pos
sessions. There was a perplexed
look upon his face as he greeted me,
took me by the arm and led me aside.
Il have just had a most extraordinary
experience" he confded. 81 feel a
little bewildered. I don't know exact
ly how to act, l have just made the
discovery that l am a millionaire"
l congratulated him. For a mo-
ment he looked dreamily beyond me.
Then he continued:
Il remember that two or three
years ago a very good friend of mine,
who had finally succeeded in getting
his second million dollars, told me
that the first million was by far the
harder of the two to get. Undoubt-
ely it was with him, and maybe it
is with most men who get a million
and more, yet with me the million
was not hard to get at all, and until a
few minutes ago l had no idea that
would ever be a millionaire.
You know of Tom Acton, the old
police commissioner who broke up
the draft riots in New York in '63?
Well, when he lost his place in the
sub-treasury, where he went some
time after the war was over, some of
his friends decided to organize for
him little bank uptown; Tom
thought there was a chance for a
bank to do good business up there in
looking after small accounts. l was

Uncle David Gray Travelled From

Through the Fence.

One of the quaintest, most original
and most delightful characters that
ever sat in a legislators chair was
Uncle David Gray, a member Of the
New York state assembly in the win

oh, no, he isn't. was the reply.
'Tilden won't accept the nomination
How do you know THAR we asked.
Why, Mr. Whitney told US. He
says he has letter from Mr.. Tilden
in which he declines to permit the
use of his name.
You may be sure that we made all
haste TO see Bill Whitney" said Mr.
Grace, with grim smile. I'VE asked
him if it were true that he had spoken
of the existence of Tlden's letter.
"sYes, | have was the blunt re-
Spouse. And when we asked him IL
he didn't consider that he had vio-
lated Mr.. Tildens confidence. his re-
ply was that in politics, as in war, ev-
erything was fair, and he meant to do
all he could to secure the nomination
of his fatherin-law.
'eThe jis was up. Knowing for a
certainty that Bill Whitney had spread
the authoritative news that Tilden
would not run, we were morally GER
tain that be could never be nominated
by reclamation. So, to get even with
Whitney, we made up our minds that
whatever else happened Henry B..
Payne should not be nominated. And
that purpose explains how, after look
ing in various directions for a candi-
date, we concentrated upon General
Winfield Scott Hancock"

Spotless Linen and China Which

The appetite of an invalid may be
tempted to an extraordinary degree by
having all dishes served as temptingly
as possible. Spotless linen, china
which shines and glass which is IN
clouded add enormously to the at
tractiveness of the meal and a patient
who is not hungry may unconsciously
be stimulated to eat
Above al other points, the most
scrupulous cleanliness must be OBJ
served. not only in the food, but the
dishes and the way the food is placed
on them. There should be no spot
of sauce on the plate A ''dribbled' eff
feet of food is most unappetizing. On
the same basis, if toast is beneath the
sauce it should have been buttered on
another plate, being then transferred
to the one on which it is to be served.
Otherwise there will be fine crumbs,

When an invalid is not strong
enough to cut her own food it should
be done before the tray is brought to
her, but in such a way that it has no
suggestion of small pieces. 4 piece of
toast may be buttered and cut into
cubes, the bit of meat or fish being
then placed on the pieces which are
held together. Fish is easily separated
by fork, so that the conyalscent may
do that herself, but chicken or any
thing else in the meat line must be

pushed together, do not appear

Father o'Leary's Facetious Rejoinder
to John Philpot Curran an EX
ample of Real Wit.

One day the famous John PhiIpot
CUrran, who was also very partial to
the said corned mutton, did me the
honor to meet him. To enjoy the So
ciety of such men was an intellectual
treat. They were great friends and
seemed to have a mutual respect for
each others talent, and, as it may
easily be imagined, OLeary versus
Curran was no bad match.
One day after dinner Curran said to
him: Reverend father, / wish you
were ST Peter
And why, counselor, would you
wish that / were st. Peter?" asked
OLeary.
Because, reverend father. in that
case" said Curran, you would have

it.-FTom KeIly's "reminiscences.

AN lNTOLERABLE ITCHING

"Just about two years ago, some
form of humor appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was a slight itching but
It grew steadily worse until, when /
combed my hair, the scalp became
raw and the ends of the comb-teeth
would be wet with blood. Most of the
time there was an intolerable itching,
in painful, burning way, very much
as bad, raw burn, If deep, will itch
and smart when first beginning to
heal. Combing my hair was positive
torture. My hair was long and tan
gled terribly because Of the blood and
seabs. This continued growing worse
and over half my hair fell out. l was
in despair, really afraid OF becoming
totally bald.
Sometimes the pain was SO great
that, when partially awake, / would
scratch the worst places so that my
finger-tips would be bloody. l could
not sleep well and, after being asleep
a short time, that awful singing pain
would commence and then / would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said it must be salt Theum.
Having used Cuticura Soap merely as
q toilet soap before, l now decided to
order a set of the Cuticura Remedies
-Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills.

menced the Cuticura treatment at
once, so had very little trouble. On
my scalp / used about one half cake
Of Cuticura Soap and half box Of
Cuticura Ointment in all. The first
time took six or seven bottles Of Gu
ticura Pills and the last time three
bottles-neither an expensive or te-
dious treatment Since then I have
had no scalp trouble of any kind.
Standing up, with my hair unbound, it
comes to my knees and had it not been
