PETTIGREW'S STATEMENT.
South. Datliota Senator Tells Why He Belted
tho Convention.
St. Louis, June 21. Senator Petti
grew of South Dakota, who bolted from
the convention, made the following
authorized statement:
"I left the convention because I be
lieve the financial question to be the
only vital question in this campaign,
and as I could not support or advocate
the single gold standard I thought I
owed it to the convention nrt to longer
participate in the proceedings, and I
believe that th maintenance of the
gold standard must result in a further
decline in prices to the utter ruin of a 1
producers of wealth, and that even the
adoption of that standard is the cause
of the panic, enforced idleness and mis
ery among our people. I believe the
gold of the world is. cornered by profes
sional creditors of the world"

Peohia, June 24. John P. Altgeld is
the nominee of the Democratic party
for governor of Illinois. He was unan
imously placed at
the head of the
ticket yesterday
afternoon. He had
no opponent and a
few moments be
fore the honor was
thrust upon him,
declaredhe did not
want it. He said
JOHN P. altgeld. so at the conclu
sion of one of the most impressive
speeches ever made before a Democratic
convention. He said he was physically
unable to lead the fight and his financial
affairs were in bad shape and needed
his attention. No sooner had he men
tioned his desire to retire from public
life than there came an impassioned
shout of disapproval, not only from the
delegates, but from thousands of people
who were crowded in the hall. It was
a strange convention and will not soon
be forgotten. It was in session only a
little over five hours. Nearly all the
candidates were named by acclamation.
There was no strife. There were no
acrimonious speeches, save those di
rected against the enemy. The con
vention, as had been predicted, came
out strongly for free silver and so in
structed its delegates-at-large to the na
tional convention. The platform was
almost diametrically opposite in all its
parts to that of the Republican party
and the 1,C6J delegates voted unan
imously for its adoption.
The platform declares for free coinage,
"the soundest and safest money known
to man," in the first plank.
The money plank contains nearly
600 words and denounces the bond
sharks of "Wall street and all
gold standard believers. The next
plank declared for a tariff for revenue
only and denounced the McKinley law.
The interference of the government by
injunction and by troops in local affairs
was denounced as unconstitutional. An
amendment to the federal constitution
was recommended for an income tax.
The delegates-at-large were instructed
to support only Euch candidates as
would be in sympathy with this plat
form and vote as a unit.

Saratoga , June 25. The Democratic
state convention that adjourned yester
day afternoon has put itself on record
on the financial platform and has se
lected its delegates to the national con
vention, but in doing these things it has
followed out the predictions of weeks
ago and has not created any sensation
or even mild surprise. It has declined
to name its electors, has not put itself
on record on any state issue and has left
the selection of a state commit ee until
the next state convention. These things
have all been done at the instance of
leaders and with the avowed purpose of
placing the party in such a position that
no matter what the platform of the na
tional party is it can be supported by
the electors and party in this state.

Coltdjbus, O., Jane 25. The Demo
cratic state convention concluded last
night after being in session continuous
ly all day. It was primarily a silver con
vention and secondarily the budding of
a boom for John R. McLean for the
presidential nomination at Chicago. Of
the 673 delegates 542 voted for free sil
ver and 618 for McLean. He is pro
prietor of the Cincinnati Enquirer and
has been advocating free silver for years
in his paper.
The champion of free silver in the
Etate in recent years has been Allen "W.
Thurman, who kept np a silver organi
zation in Ohio when the element was in
the minority at Democratic conventions.
The key note of the convention was on
that issue. Neither the temporary nor
permanent chairman nor any others re
ferred to anything else in their speeches
and the platform covers only that one
issue.

Indianapolis, June 25. The Demo
cratic state convention was the largest
ever held in the state. The party pri
maries and the convention preUminaries
had been prolific of contests and con
tentions. The silver sGntiment had de
veloped rapidly and the advocates of
free coinage had, with comparative
ease, captured a controlling interest in
the convention. The platform protests
against bond sales, favors gold and sil
ver, and indorses Governor Matthews
as a candidate for president.
Jtxdge Weeks Bolts.
Cabthage, Mo., June 2&. Judge J.
M. Weeks, who has the indorsement of
several delegates for auditor on the Re
publican ticket, issued an opes letter
withdrawing from the race and releas

him. He says he cannot indorse the

Strike of Silver Xlners.
Leadytlle, June 21. As a result of
discontent and fruitless efforts far ax.
adjustment extending over several
months, 800 miners last night walked
out, owing to the refusal of certain
silver mine masagers to increase their
wages from 'i.bO to 8i er day
FUNERAL OF A LIVING MAN.
Departed Sabject Takes aa Active Fart la
the Exercises,
Poetshouth, O., June 22. The fun
eral of a living man, plain, old Lorenzo
DowMaKinney, at which he was pres
ent, was preached at Fallea Timbers, 20
miles from here, to an assembly of
8,000 people. It was in a primeval
forest of grand oaks, camp meeting
gtyle. Rev. Forest Evans conducted
the ceremonies. Just behind him sat
the living Lorenzo Dow McKinney.
Incongruities in the shape of hokey
pokey, ginger bread, pop corn, lem
onade, with all the accompaniments,
were discordantly present. A commit
tee of eight venerable men in lieu of
pallbearers conducted the subject to the
platform. They had all known him
from youth. Then gray haired Jared
Blake man, nearly 90 years old, started
singing "Jesus Lover of My Soul," and
the oaken vaults of that temple echoed,
the sound of 8,000 voices. After the
prayer by Rev. Evans, the place again
rang with song, "The Sweet Bye and
Bye." Then came the Eermon. The
text was: 'The time of my departure
is now at hand."
At the conclusion the hymn, "Are
You "Washed IhtheBlood of the Lamb,"
was sung, and then by invitation the
congregation filed by, taking
leave of
him by
the departed tearfully, shaMn
the hand.
President Goes Fishing.
"Washington,. June 22. President
Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle left
the city on the lighthouse tender Yiolet
for a fishing trip down the Potomac
river. With the" party was Captain
Lamberton of the Violet. The present
intention is to be absent two or three
days, but the trip may be longer and
extend into the waters of Chesapeake
bay. The weather during the past few
days has been excessively hot and the
president, being unable to leave the city
permanently at this time for the sum
mer, takes this means of obtaining a
few days respite from official duties.
Peculiar Trolley Accident.
Philadelphia, June 22. More than 20
passengers on two open trolley cars were
injured in a peculiar accident at Frank
ford, a suburb of this city. One of the
cars was returning from and the other
going to a nearby pleasure park. They
ran on parallel tracks. Both were so
crowded that many of the passengers
stood on the side way foot boards and
when the cars attempted to pass each
other at a rapid rate of speed a jam re
sulted. Eight of the passengers were
internally injured - and were taken to
hospitals, but it is not thought any
deaths will follow.

Murder Statistics.
In the average annual number of
murders Italy leads the list of the Eu
ropean countries, showing a score of
nearly 3,000, while Spain drags -on a
poor second, with only 1,200. France
and Germany show returns of 700 each;
Austria, exclusive of Hungary, of 500,
and Great Eritain of 250. Of the latter
Scotland provides less than her share,
according to the number of her popula
tion, showing that time has ameliorated
the character of her people since the
days of Hadrian and Agricola, and even
of later periods. The generous average
of homicides shown by Italy is various
ly accounted for, but it seems to have
its root in the character of the people
and to have been held up conscientious
ly during the entire historic period. It
was maintained in the season of the
Lucomoes, of Arno, and of the Bianchi
and the ITevi, as in that of King Hum
bert and Mulberry Bend.
Professor Grafalo has recently been
lecturing on the subject in Borne and
attributes much of the tendency to
homicide to the existence of the ven
detta, which -survives in full force in
Italy after its practical extinction in
other countries. The explanation has
some weight, no doubt, but an ampler
one is to be found in the fact that the
people there are bred in a savage disre
gard of human life and are ready to ap
peal to the stiletto on the slightest prov
ocation. At home the custom is looked
upon, with some toleration as belonging
to the locality and the social habits of
the people, but when they emigrate
these practices are sometimes interfered
with. After two or three generations in
this country they will no doubt become
as peaceable as other people, but at
home their habits have so deep a root
in antiquity that there is little immedi
ate prospect of their change. Kew

.MAKING CHINAWARE.
jiterestinj; Description cf Bow the "Work
Is Dana la Worcester, Encland.
Close beside "Worcester cathedral are
the ugly workshops and tall chimneys
of the Royal porcelain works. When we
watch the thrower molding on his magic
wheel the plastic olay we are filled with
wonder at his skill and ask ourselves
whence came the clay which takes so
readily any farm the potter wills. The
flint bowlders found upon the plains of
j Brittany in France, feldspar from Corn
wall and Sweden, bones from America,
besides other things, all pay tribute.
These unlikely constituents are calcined
and then ground exceedingly fine in
millc The grinding takes from 12
hours to 6 days. It is a sight worth see
ing, those powerful mills racing round
tl deep trough (made out of stone from
Derbyshire) weighted with heavy blocks,
churning each material, for each is
ground separately, into a thick white
cream. When finished, the liquids are
strained through fine hair sieves, and
all particles of iron withdrawn by means
of magnets. The different ingredients
are then mixed together in proper pro
portions and. kneaded into the required
consistency, and then the clay is ready
for the thrower.
The art of molding clay has become
much more exact since the employment
of plaster of paris molds. After the
thrower, with the help of his wheel, has
roughly shaped the clay into what is
termed the "lining," it is taken off the
wheel and put into a plaster of paris
cast, which, in turn, is placed upon the
whirling wheel, and the "lining" is
then deftly molded to the exact shape.
As plaster of paris absorbs moisture
quickly the lining is soon firm enough
to be handled. It is then "turned" like
ordinary wood or metal, and has han
dles, which have been molded in plaster
of paris, fixed by the same clay.
It was always a puzzle to our minds
how the handles were induced not onlj
to stick on to the jugs and cups, but tc
bear the weights of the same cups and
jugs when full of liquid. The porcelain
is then ready to be baked. For this it is
packed in fireproof baking dishes called
"seggars" and supported on every side
by powdered calcined flint. These seg
gars are made to fit exactly one upon
the other, although theyare of different
sizes and depths, and they are arranged
in columns side by side in the oven.
This oven is then bricked np and eight
fires are lighted and kept burning for 48
hours, night and day. The oven takes
four days to cooL and then the content
are unpacked and. are ready for a variety
of processes.
Most of the china is glazed, an opera
tion requiring care and skill. The arti
cles are bathed in the liquid glaze z
muddy looking broth and the greater
part of the superfluous glaze shaken
off. But it is impossible to free them j
perfectly; besides, the fingers leave
marks which have to be removed after
the glaze has been dried in a hot room i
Women and girls are employed for this j
work. The ivory glaze is a delicate
salmon pink before it is baked, the white
a dark drab. After it is glazed, the pot- j
tery.f or the second time, is packed in seg- j
gars and baked. After this the colored
china is painted and baked again. The
gold is also baked in. Few people know
that he gilt on china is the purest gold
that can be bought. It is ground with
mercury and turpentine into a black
looking paint and applied with a fine
camel's hair pencil. Boys are trained
or thia work from 14 years of age, it
being nearly impossible for older people
to acquire the accuracy of eye and hand
necessary. It is a great drawback to the
production of artistic pottery that the
coloring is totally different in the paint
to the result after burning. For instance,
gold paint is black before and dull gold
afterward: the brightness is produced
by poUafeiag i5 with an agate. Other
colora ma obtained from metallic ox
ides; iitsi gircj red, cobalt, blue, etc.

The- Victims of an Advertisement.
I had been in a buggy among the
trees and swamps of Florida most of
the day and got to a clearing with a
mournful, dirty looking house in the
midst, when the sun was" sinking theat
rically at the back of, the forest The
house did not claim to be a hotel, but
they could put me up in it The owner
came in by and by with a small deer on
his shoulders, and there was plenty of
duck stew in a saucepan. My darky
camped out amid the pines, where his
fire made a picturesque spot in the
gloom Near him were two caravans.
They held the geeds and chattels of a
couple of families from Iowa. These in
nocents had fallen victims to an adver
tisement The land they had come to
was thickly speckled with the charred
stumps of great pines. They had under
stood it to be as manageable as so much
prairie.
"I wish we were right back again,
that I do, " said one of the wives. They
were all foregathering in the house
where I was lodged. But my host gave
them no comfort. "Mr. (the land
agent who had vexed them) would," he
said, "settle up hell if the devil gave
him a chance, and that's a fact" The
husband of the wife remarked with em
phasis that he " deserved to have that
chance at once. Cornhill Magazine.
He Was In Such a Hurry.
A friend who hailed recently from
Cairo told mo this tale, as an illustra
tion of the dilatory ways of Arabian
trades people:
"A certain gentleman ordered a
swing to be erected in his garden for
the use of his little boy, aged 6. He
waited and waited, but the swing never
arrived. Inffdue course of time that boy
grew up to man's estate, and became
himself the father of a little boy.
"When his son was 6 years old, he
remembered how his own father had or
dered a swing to be made for him So
he called on the tradesman, who lived
at his gate, and asked him to send up
the swing that had been, ordered 20
years before. The man agreed to do so.
"The little boy, becoming impatient
after three weeks, his father called
again, and remonstrated with the Ara
bian as to his dilatoriness. The indig
nant tradesman replied that he could
not really undertake to serve any one
who was in such a fearful hurry."

The National Bad.
Some well meaning people are not
satisfied with the national flower, what
ever it is, and are suggesting the pond
lily for that exalted honor. They claim
that as this lily is closely related to the
lotus of India and Egypt its adoption
by the United States would show that
we believe in the "sisterhood of states,"
etc. The pond lily, however, from its
aqueous habit, will not do so sr a sym
bol of this great republic, for tht Unit
ed States never takes water, in which
example it is followed by many of its
brave brigadiers and colonels. Kansas
City Journal.
In Griqualand.
The scene is laid in Griqualand East,
a dependency of the cape of Good Hope ;
the place, a country schoolhouse, situ
ate in a wide, open plain, with "bush"
and "dongas," or gullies, in the dis
tance. The master receives a govern
ment grant The parents also pay him
a small fee monthly. Number of pu
pils, 18, farms being 3,000 and 6,000
acres each and only very partially
fenced. The boys and girls all come to
school on ponies. These graze about un
til the joyful signal is given and the
school is out Saddles for both sexes
consist generally of sheepskins, and
bridle reins are probably made of
"reins" that is, untanned strips of
hide.
Time, 2 p.m. There are always na
tives about who assist in catching and
' 'saddling up' ' the ponies. Ten or twelve
of the youngsters have to travel in the
same direction. Hurrah now for a hur
dle race. There are two water jumps on
the homeward hound "course." It is a
grand helter skelter. The ponies enter
into the fun. Any youngster who quits
his or her sheepskin must catch the
pony and scramble up as best he or she
can. The winner is generally a girl who
has taught her brothers to ride. These
children would feel the restraints of
English life terribly. The mothers in
the old country lift their hands in hor
ror and exclaim, "Surely these chil
dren will break their necks I' ' And what
does this heathenish writer mean by
"water jumps?" Bless your anxious
hearts, the children are not hurt; they
tumble on the turf quite comfortably,
and those ponies that don't jump the
brook go through it As to the wetting,
that matters but little with a Griqua
land temperature, and perhaps a thun- J
derstoim gives them wetting No. 2 j
But these clever ponies can generally
make the shelter before the storm over
takes them. Chambers' Journal.
