Populist National Convention, St. Louis, July 22. Silver National Convention, Louis, July 22. St. WASHINGTON LETTER. (From Our Regular Correspondent.) Wasnincron, July 24th, 1896. Senator Faulkner, chairman of the Democratic Congressional committee, isbeing daily astonished at the ex- traordinary increase in silver sentiment | it the middle and eastern States, as shown by letters written to the com- mittee asking for information and _ lit- erature on the subject. He is also sur- prised to see thas a majority of these seekers after silver documents, instead of being farmers, are professicnal and business men residing in town and cities. Speaking on the subject Sen- ator Faulkner said “I am astounded at the tcne of some of the letters I am receiving and it appears to me that the silyer wave sweeping over the east with as much force as it has shown in the west and suuth. It may be per- maneito*it may be only temporary, but th: ¢ it exists now is certain.” Sen- ator F; ulk er is not the sort of man to allow | is eithusiasm to bias the judg- ment, ] enc? his declaration of his be- lief, that unless some great reaction takes place, which will change existing public sentiment before election day, Bryan will be elected by a large major- ity, carries great weight. arepresentative Hart,of Pennsylvania says his district (the eighth) will roll up a good majority for Bryan and Sewall. He says there are very few Democrats in the district have said they would not support the Chicago ticket and platform, vut that a great many Republicans have come out for Bryan and Sewall and tree silver. He says that the tariff question cuts no fiv- ure at all amoug his people, but that they are all anxious to lean everything possibla about the silver question. It was largely to satisfy their yearnings in that line that Mr. Hart came to Washington. He has arranged with who . the Congress'onal committee to send a lot of silver literature to his constituents Among the documents to be sent is the Chicago speech of Mr. Bryan,which Senator Faulkner says “is about the “best statement of the silver questicn, from our standpoint, that has been made.” Hon. William J. Hendricks, ex-At- _torney General of Kentucky, said in Washington this week : “In the fierce “contest that has been waged in Ken. -tucky between the gold and silver par. _ tisans my yoice and influence have _ ever been on the side of sound money, _ I still adhere to the opinion that. free ‘ silver coinage by this government, inde tly ot the other “great nations, be. a. mistake, But Lam a dem. ad dem : f stands for so matiy hin: besides tree ilver that it do all in my power to promote the success of the Chicago ticket. With all the faults of the plattorm it is infinitely better than McKinleyism. Bryan and Sewall will unquestionably carry Ken- tucky.” There is sume talk about estabiish- ing a democratic daily newspaper in Washington which will support Bryan and Sewall and the Chicago platform. Perhaps such a paper mght make some votes, but, in my opinion, it would not make one per cent of the votes that could be made by spending the amount of money that it would cost to runa Washington daily duriug the campaign in circulating the democratic dailies and weeklies already established and enjoy- ing more prestige in taeir localities than a Washington paper could possibly get. Mr. S. D. Weaver, city attorney of Burlington, Kans., who is now visiting Washington, says: “ It is the opinion of conservative men that Bryan wil carry Kansas. {t is true that some Democrats who believe 14 sound money will not support him, and yet more of these will vote for him than will sup- port McKinley. great many silver Republicans in the There are also a State who will vote for Beyan.” Theatrical men are as a rele good judges of the drift of pubhe sentiment Mr. J. W. Morrisey, widely known as amanager says cf a coming event: “Bryan’s descent on New York will Le a stupendous affair, He will pack Madison Square Garden to its limits— 16,000 people—but 10,000 more will be in the streets to give him welcome. Only a fraction of that monster gather. ing will be able to hear a word he ut- ters, but few will fuil to read it after. wards. Already'there is a big chance of sentiment in New York favorable to silver and Bryan’s coming will make converts by the thousand.” While it cannot be said that the ac- tion of the populist convention was ai- together satisfactory to Democrats, none of them are disposed to worry about it, because their minds were made up before the convention met tnat Bryan weuld get the vote of every pop- ulist who does not wish to throw his vote away, regardless of what the con- vention might do, and there was noth- ing about the work of the convention to cause them to change their opinion. ee Fatal Snake Bites. Hagerstown, Md., July 19.— Walter Drury, aged 5 years, son of Martin Drury, of Blair’s Valley, was bitten by a eopperhead snake ten times and died from the effects of the poison. He was in bed with his older brother, Ignatius. They awoke in the night. and Walter thought a mouse was biting him on the foot. He called to his parents, and they came into the room with a light. A snake wouna itselt around Walter and sank its fangs into his body ten times urtil the child fell from pain and exhaustion. He was bitten twice op his arm, twice on the stomach orice cn the breast and on his feet ard legs. In the meantime Ignatius was battling with a second copperhead snake which crawled out of the covers. Ignatius was bitten twice, once on the hip and once on the arm. He shook off the snake and leaped out of bed. Mrs. Drury, in going to the rescue of her boys, stepped on the snake which had bitten Ignatius, and the snake bit her on the foot. Both snakes disappeared through a hole, in the floor through which doubtless they had crawled into the house. The body of Walter swelled to immense size almost imme- diately, and he suffered intense pain. Mr. Drury rode six miles for a physi- cian, but when the doctor: arrived the lad was dying. ‘The physician was too late to save Walter, but he gave Mrs. Drury and Ignatius remedies to coun- teract the poisonous bites, and both of them) will’ tecover, The. house. in of American Silver and Repeal | of the Ten Per Cent. ‘l'ax on State Banks. per month.

Truly, his description of his suffer- ings seem little short of marvelous. In- stead of seeking his couch, glad for the nights coming, he went to it with terror, realizing that another long, weary, wake- ful night and a struggle to breathe was before him.

Although gas, candles and oil lamps are used to light the parlia-. ment buildings, says the Westmin. ster Budyzet, incandescent lamps are in most general use. The system of | electric lighting is controlled from the basement, and throughout the building the lamps themselves are and forethought. In the dining rooms, for instance, they are placed very high up, so that while the sup- ply of light is ample there is no glare over the tables. In the tea- rooms, besides the lights from the ceiling, there are wall brackets over the tables and even movable table lamps for those who care to use them. Andinthe kitchen and the service room adjoining the com mons dining room all the fittings are made of iron, rather than of brass, so that they may suffer as lit. tle as possible from the steam. With a staff of about 50 men the superintendent is able to make al} sorts of ingenious and pretty fit- tings. And, as another specimen of the economy which is everywhere visible, it may be mentioned that he has succeeded in making many pret ty electrolicrs out of the old gas fit. tings. The big electroliers—notably that in the central hall, which weighs 18 hundredweight and bears 93 lamps—and the smaler ones in the peers’ chamber, St. Stephen’s hall and elsewhere are made to be raised and lowered for purposes of cleaning or of replacing bruken lamps. This big electrolier has, high up in the dome, a crane, which moves over it on tram lines, by which it israised and lowered, while the electric wires are carefully drawn aside on another tramway so that they may not be damaged in paying out while the electrolier is being lowered. And in the roof above the house of lords there are similar arrangements, but with simply a weight and a couple of earthenware pulleys in place of the crane. The commons chamber is not lighted entirely by electricity. Round the arched doorway are ten incandescent lamps, which are prin. cipally required to show up the carving and the clock face, and un- der tho side galleries there isa lamp placed behind each pillar, so that. while it cannot itself be seen, it pre. vents the members who may be sit- ting therefrom being in deep shade and so invisible to the speaker. The principal lighting here, however. comes through the painted glass roof, behind which 64 powerfal gas lamps are used, gas being preferred to electricity here both on avcount of its superior spreading powers and because the heat creates a draft, and so assists ventilation. Under the glass is avery fine wire net- ¢ work, so that were a breakage to ac. cur there ‘vould be no danger of a cabinot minister being decapitated In the lobbies and the libraries electric lighting is used, however In the libraries and reading room: it is placed lower than in most parts of the building, for obvious reasons. And in all the larger electroliers the lamps are divided into threo groups, which light independently of one another. Thus, on a dull day one set of lamps would be in use; if it were foggy, there might be two sets, and at night all three are employed. Ruskin and Science, One of the worst enemies of sci- ance is Mr. Ruskin. When Agassiz published his book on ‘Fossil Fish- es,’ which was deemed of such im- portance in determining the relative ages of the strata in which they were found that the United States government contributed to the ex. penses of publication, Mr, Ruskin, in ‘‘Preeterita,’’ volume 2, page 112, says, ‘‘ Agassiz was a mere blockhead to have paid for all that good draw- ing of the nasty, ugly things, and | that it didn’t matter a stale herring whether they had any names or with the pen of ignorance... But what shall we say when we see the same writer speaking of ‘‘little Mr. Faraday” finding a hydrocarbon oil in heaven which makes a stink? (I quote from memory.) Surely, if ev- er a man was great both aga man and an explorer.of nature’s myste- ries, it was the blacksmith’s son who made hig way from the position af a little newsboy to that of. thé'gréat est mentalist that ever "7 —Notes pnd Queries. be Prima Doria The M says thy acting is suggestive timbpe of my-epide Whet dgen' mean? i Contralto (xictously) + } GIVES YOU TEE NEWS FRESH EVERY AFTERNOON (EXCEPTSUNDAY) AND WORKS FORTHE BFS” —INTERESTS OF.
