more. Van Buren, had good major
ity. but not twO-thirds. The two-thirds
rule had been used in two former Dem
ocratic conventions, but it was fixed
upon the party in 1874. The name of
Van Buren, was withdrawn after eight
ballots. and Polk was nominated. The
two-thirds rule, which put Van Buren,
out Of the running. was adopted by the
southern delegates for that purpose.
The Democratic party made the fight

he tried to conciliate southern Demo.

LANDING AT RAKAHANGA.
A Risky Feat and One That Serely
1ries the Nerves.


Rakahanga is Il little coral atoll in
the south sea, not very far from New
Zealand Few people ever visit it,
and to judge from the account IN Sir.
Frank Burnett's Through Tropic
Seas of the difficulties that attend a
landing there none would care to go a
second time.
At Rakahanga the feeling is that
only by miracle can a safe passage
be made through what by a stretch
of the Imagination, is called the en-
trance to the lagoon. Imagine once
good entrance INSTRUCTED by wall of
coral rising to within a few feet of the
surface of the water This coral wall
is built by that wonderful creature,
the coral polyp. Over it break with
inconceivable fury huge ocean pillows
that travel with the speed of race
horses, lashing and churning the water
into milk white foam and with a
deafening roar throwing the spray to
such height that it may be seen miles
away.
The backwash Of every breaker
forms, on the outside Of the wall OF
rock. a chasm fathoms deep, which Is
again filled up by the next rushing
wave. To cross the abyss and reach
the quiet shelter Of the lagoon is a
difficulty that the islander shows the
greatest skill in surrounding.
His boat-a long, low, fat bottomed
affair, built much like a halibut dory,
manned usually by six paddlers be-
sides the steersman-is brought to the
very verge Of the boiling caldrOn, and
there 1t is held till the opportune mo-
ment arrives. Since that sometimes
does not occur for five or ten minutes
the passenger has plenty Of time to
reflect upon his misdeeds, to survey
the sublime scene and to wonder how
in the world that fearful turmoil Of
water is to be crossed.
The delay does not tend to compose
his nerves. but If he is observant he
will notice that about every five or
six minutes three giant pillows In
quick succession roll majestically in.
When the last Of the three has passed
and the chasm has been filed up the
paddlers give frightful yell that ter
rifles the unsuspecting passenger al
most to death, dig in their paddles and
shoot the boat forward like an arrow
from a bow.
Before the backwash can re-empty
the chasm the boat is across. The
passenger has hardly time to grasp
how it is done before the paddlers
have sprung to the reef and pulled
the boat clear Of the next roller, usu-
ally small one.
In entering the lagoon the chief risk
is that Of an upset after crossing the
chasm and ducking in two or three
feet Of water, but on going out, II the
boat does not reach the smooth water
before the next succeeding swell
breaks. woe betide 1t and its crew, for
nothing will prevent its being swamp
ed and carried, with all hands, back
into the awful abyss by the thrush Of
broken water, out Of which only the
strongest and most skilful swimmers
can emerge

The Truth About lcebergs.

Many existing theories regarding ice-
bergs require modification. For in
stance, 1t has generally been believed
that for every cubic foot Of ice above
water there are seven below. and Il
berg, therefore, that towers, say, 100
feet above the ocean level has a total
height of 800 feet. Lieutenant Peary.
the conqueror of the north pole, de-
clares that this is not always the case.
at is true he says. that the heaviest
portion of the berg is submerged. but
it is wrong To say that seven-eighths Of
its height is under water. | have noted
several instances where only two-thirds
of berg is submerged. st. Nicholas.

a candidate to meet again in Balti-
more on June Is The northern or
Douglas Democrats outnnmbered the
southern Democrats at the Baltimore
convention and nominated stephen A.
Douglas of Illinois and Ilerschel Y.
Johnson of Georgia.
The seeding Democrats, most of
them southerners. met in Baltimore on
June 2S and named John C. Breckin
ridge Of Kentucky and Joseph Lane Of
oregon.
The Constitutional Union party, the
old American or Know Nothing party,
had met in Baltimore on May 10 and
nominated John Bell of Tennessee and
Edward Everett of Massachusetts.
The Republicans met in Baltimore in
1864 and nominated Abraham Lincoln
and adopted platform declaring ever
lasting war on slavery
The Democratic convention of that
year was held in Chicago and named
George b. Mcclellan of New Jersey.
In 1872 the Democrats met in Balti-
more and nominated Horace Greeley
of New York, who had been named
earlier by the Liberal Republicans in
Cincinnati.
This Years Convention.
For this years convention. the first
to be held at Baltimore since 1872,
elaborate preparations are being made.
The convention will meet on June %
in the Fifth regiment armory the
citys largest auditorium
4 committee of prominent men is at
work on the ARRANGEMENTS for the care
and comfort Of the delegates and thou
sands of other visitors whom the con
vention will attract to the city. Active
in this respect are Mayor j. II. Preston
/ and Charles r. Crane. Mr. Crane was
the treasurer of the committee that
raised the 100000 fund which secured
the convention for Baltimore.
While no definite selection of con
vention officers has been made, it is
regarded us likely that Senator Elect
Ollie James Of Kentucky will be tenn
porary chairman and make the key
note speech.

Il more remarkable case of the carrying

the head, and that without the victim
knowing that his head was so filled up
and weighted down.
A young farmer consulted DR.. Par
ker at the Liverpool hospital for nasal
abscess that had troubled him some
time. Probing the nostril, the surgeon
found that loose mass, apparently of
metal, occupied a considerable space
behind the nose and above the roof of
the mouth.
So large was this object that it was
removed with difficulty through the
side of the face. 1t proved to be gun
breech and an iron bolt. The breech
measured 3 by ~ by 1 inches. The
bolt was three inches long. The weight
Of the two was quarter Of pound.
This mass Of metal had been in the
mans head for Eve years, though he
had not suspected its presence there.
A muzzle loading gun had exploded in
his hands and shattered his face. The
wound healed without leaving any out
ward deformity. His only affliction
was symptoms Of nasal catarrh. The
young farmer made rapid recovery to
perfect health with the removal of the
iron from his head.
