L- r r fi m M ij J?OE 'JCIIE OHIO MAN. ILLINOIS INSTRUCTS FOR MA JOR M'KINLEY. . Mr. Cullom Turned Doirn Ho Had All tho rnlltlrnl Machinery nnd Mnnlpnln torn With Him, Hut the MeKinlcy lloom Carried tho liny With Kato Nnnicrous Outbursts of Enthusiasm In the CotiTcntlon. Illinois for MeKinlcy. SrnTKOMEf.D, 111., May 2 .William AlcKinloy, of Ohio, is the choice of tho Republicans of Illinois for president of tlio United btutcs. He was so de clared at tlio Republican state con vention here yesterday. He was not only declared tho choice, but the over whelming choice, of tho people of this state who believe in tho principles of the Kepubliean party. Every effort and scheme known to politicians was brought to bear upon the delegates to induce them to name another man, but all tho schemes failed. It was apparent tho people whom tho delegates represented wanted MeKinlcy, and tho delegates could not bo induced to violate tho wishes of their constituents. That the people of this State wero plcased with tho choico was made ev ident by tho U.OOO hpeetatots and vis itors who gathered from nil parts of tho State to attend tho convention. As Boon as the name of Major MeKin lcy was mentioned iu tho convention there was an outburst of applause that surprised even the most ardent admirers of Mnjor MeKinlcy. Nearly every man, woman and child in tho vast throng arose at the mention of the name of the Iluckeye statesman and for nearly five minutes shouted and yelled and cheered. Hats wero thrown in tho air by tlio more enthus iastic, and for a tiiuo it seemed as if the vast crowd had gono raving mad. The contest was between tlio Re publicans who believed Shelby M. Cullom bhould bo honored as tho standard bearer in tho presidential contest by tho people of this State, on ttie one hand, aud the Republicans who favored MeKinlcy on the other. Arrayed on tho side of Senator Cullom was that organization known as the Cook county "machine," nnd a large number of leading politicians and statesmen of Illinois. With him wero veteran politicians, who, ia years gono by, have engaged in many a hard fought political contest. They hud to aid them one of the most perfect po litical organizations that has ever been formed in this State; but all their plans wont wrong. While Senator Cullom and his back ers met defvat, they met it gracefully, and at the conclusion of the conven tion there was not the slightest ill feeling on their part towards the vic tors. A motion was made to lay the Me Kinlcy resolutions on the tnblc. and wasdefeated by a voto of 503 to 832. When the uproar following tho adoption of the MeKinlcy resolutions had ceased the following dclgates-at-large wero elected: It. W. Patterson, editor Chicago Tribune; William Penn Nixon, editor Inter Ocean, ex-Governor It J. Oglosby of Elkhart, and cx-Gov-crnor J. W. Fifer. TALK ON BATTLESHIPS. Air. Allen of Nebraska, Stakes Some Ulg I'nlltlcal J'rcdlrtlons. Wasiii.vqtoN, May 2. The Senate spent anoUier day on the nassl appro priation bill without completing it, Mr. Gormun further opposed the item of four battleships and expressed tho opinion that the appropriations al ready made would consume the bal ance in the treasury. A determina tion of tho number of battleships has not yet been reached. Mr. Chandler has proposed substituting thirty largo and fast torpedo gunboats for two of the battleships. Mr. White of Call fornia, spoke of the need of coast de fense before further naval vessels were built, and Mr. Allen of Nebraska made n speech of over three hours ar raigning tho two old parties. Mr. Allen predicted that the Repub lican party would be victorious at tho next national election, and that tho Democratic party would go out of power for a third of a century. Threo months hence, he snid, there would bo a great bolt in tho Democratic ranks, one wing taking refuge in the Popu list party, and the rest becoming "gold bugs." Then turning to tho Republican party, Mr. Allen accused It of "frying the fat" out of protected Industries, and said that party, too, Would go out of power in 1000. giving place to a party of the people. Mr. Allen spoke until 4 o'clock, consuming over three hours. A Seqnel to An Oklahoma Divorce. l'Kur.v, Okla., May 2 Last Decem ber tho Rev. George C. Capron of Massachusetts secured a divorce on aggravated grounds, naming his broth er corespondent.

SHAH OF PERSIA KILLED. Losdon, May 2. Tho shah of Persia was assassinated by a fanatla this afternoon just as ho was about to en ter tho inner court of the shrine of Shah Abdul Azim, six miles north o( Teheran. Tlio assassin used a revolver and tho first bullot proved tho fatal one, passing through tho heart. Tho physi cian attached to tho German legation was sent for in hasto but boforo ho arrived tho shah was dead. In order to prevent public excite ment from becoming too high, tho first report sent out was that tho Siiah wus only slightly wounded, but an hour lator it was oftlcially an nounced that tho wound had proved fatal almost instantly. Immediately after tlio shah was shot ho was carried to hlscarriagcand con veyed to tho palaco in Teheran. There ho was attended by Dr. Tliol gean, his chief physician, and other physicians were hastily sent for. Hut in spite of their efforts his majesty ex pired soon after his arrival ut tho palace, or at about 4 o'clock this afternoon. The assassin, who was promptly ar rested, is said to be a Bay id from'Ker man or from the provinco of that name. It is believed tho murderor has accomplices. Tho heir apparent, MuzafTcr-ed-Dln, was immediately advised of tho assas sination of his father and will lcavo Tabriz, whero he was sojourning, for Teheran as soon as possible. TUB SHAH'S CAltUKK. Shah Nasred-Din was born in 1823 nnd succeeded his father, Muhnmmcd Shnh, in 1848, being tho fourth mon arch of the dynasty of tho Kajars. Ho was proclaimed heir to tho throno some years prior to his nccession, but was absent at Tabriz, when his father died and had to fight for his rights. The Into Shah's first notable act was the suppression of a rebellion in Khorason and his next tho extermina tion of the sect of tlio Bab is by sword and fire. In 13!C Englnnd declared war against Persia on account of tho lat ttr's sympathy with Russia in tho Crl roeun war and also by reason of tho capture of Herat a year earlier. After a snort campaign under tho conduct of Sir James Outram on the part of the English, the Persians woro de feated and Herat evacuated. Since that time the relations between Eng land and Persia have been friondly and the shah's disoosition of tho saino character, as his recent visit to Eng land would indicate. Nasred-Din had even previously vl-tlted Queen Victoria 1 1 an amicable spirit and had toured extensively oa the continent as well. In 1872 the Indo-European telegraph line from London through Teheran and on into India was opened and tho same year a settlement of the frontier difficulties between Persia aiid Khelat was effected by Sir F. Goldsmid and the Seistan mission. Nasred-Din was successful in most of his wars, but it is upon tho record of his civil acts that his reputation must rest. He is universally conceded to have been a humane and intelligent ruler. The new shah will be tlio eldest son of the deceased, Muzafer-ed-Dln. It is interesting to note that it is within tho power of the Persian monnrclis to alter or overrule the existing law of succession and to leava in disregard the claims of the natural heir or any other raerabor of the family.

Few women have had' a more mis erable existence and lived to tell tho tale than Mrs. Anna L. Smith of-311 Pulaski Avenue, Brooklyn. With all the comforts that money affords, VyltU all the happiness that many loving friends can give, the Joy of Mrs. Smith's life was blasted for years by the terrible ravages of sickness. The story is most interesting aa told to a reporter: "I was an Invnlld for years, suffering first with ono complaint and then with another. The thine which cnuBed me tho most discomfort nnd mnde mo of fensive to my family was tho worst case .of indigestion Imaginable. I had the best physician we could find, and occasionally his prescriptions relieved nin temporarily. But Uie pains and misery would nil Boon return again. I became desperate, nnd started In to try remedies of which I read. Amqng them wero the Pink Pills. I took the pills and followed out the direc tions to the letter, nnd before many days I began to feel like a differ ent woman. For six weeks I took the pills regularly, and I can truthfully add after that I was aB well any one In the family. This change for tho bet ter in my condition has caused my relatives and friends to' take the pills. We buy them from the drug Btore of John Duryea, at the corner of DeKalb and Sumnor Aj'enuen, "1 assure you it was impossible for mo to oversee my household for three years. Now I visit my kitchen every day, do my own marketing and shop ping; in a word, look after everything connected with my home fcnd family. "Oh. yes, I still keep, taking the pills. I take one dally after dinner. Preven tion, you know, Is better and cheaper than cure. I verily believe one half of the women who are suffering from the Ills which our sex are heir to would be up and well If they could be in duced to give the Plnlc Pills a fair trial. I certainly recommend them heartily nnd and feel grateful to tho physician who put them on the market" Mrs. Smith is a woman of some means and standing In the community nnd, therefore, her testimony will be accepted without question by all thoughtful people. Dr. Williams' Pink- Pills contain ail the elements necessary to give new life nnd richness to the blood and restore Shattered nerves. They may be had of all druggists or direct by mall from tho Dr. Williams Med. Co., Schenecta dy, N. Y., nt 50 cents per box, or six boxes for t2.50. Good Itoxis Scheme. Tho latest scheme for good roads, that of laying tracks of broad steel rails along country roads and city streets, for tho wheels of vehicles to run on, thus greatly increasing the traction power of horses- and the gen eral comfort and convenience of driv ing nnd trucking, was suggested by Gov. Wertz, of Now Jersey, in his last message, lie says a horse will draw on such a steel track twenty times as much as on a dirt road and five times as much as on macadam. The unani mity with which drivers of all manner of vehicles in the city strcots- take to the car tracks clearly illustrates- the idea. Iowa's Dangerous Sommnmmbullst lowa is the proud possessor of u. citi zen who has dreamed a dream and sprung upon an admiring common wealth a scheme for a. 34,000,000 inter national palace, to. bo built above Niagara's bank, with a mean height of 000 feet and a central tower of 1,000 feet, the building to average forty-six Btories. Iowa should not permit this genius to escape. Niagara can snare him, but his native state cannot. New York Mail and Express. ITould Not Kat tb rinc. An Englishman in Washington at dinner declined to eat an ice frozen in the shnpe and color of the American flag. This he did because be held it to be bad form to absorb the national em blem. The incident was significant as showing the distinction and tho differ ence between tho lirltlsh Idea of patri otism and our own. Englishmen lift their huts whon their flag is carried past nod rise when tho national an them is playod in theatres and musical halls. No true llrlton, in trade or out of it, would see tho flag of his country for advertising purposes. Uoaton Ga zeUo. tj KOmiyt fl-jifn -V, .i iii ii ii m ".iim f. i
