The tlomocrntic county convention of
Lancaster county met nt Fitzgerald's hall
at 3 p. in. to-day and was called to order
by Chairman Sawyer. There should
have been 100 delegates In the convention
but six of the country precincts were un
represented. A few democratic residents
of these localities were gathered in so
that it was nearly a full convention. Ono
of the delegates was full , as ] } ho insisted
on making most of the motions , so the
proceedings were not void of Interest.
M. I ) . Morrison of Hickman was made
chairman of the convention anil J. L.
Hopkins ot Lincoln , secretary. Messrs.
Calhonn , Schwvb and McUord were ap
pointed on resolutions , and their report

civil service reform , frowned down upon
convict labor and opposed sumutuary law.
The resolutions wound tip with one ask
ing the oilico of United States district
attorney for A. J. Sawyer.
The nominations opened with the ques
tion of county attorney , and Messrs.
Kastorilay , Lewis , Tibblt and Snell were
put in nomination and all of them
declined , so this question was passed.
J. V. Wolf was nominated but
he declined and tlio convention adjourned
without making a nomination for thai
oilico. When the question of the legis
lative ticket came up a representative ol
the labor unions appeared and asked that
a vacant place be left on the ticket foi
their organization to fill. This was
agreed to , and tlio convention furthei
decided to nominate only ono scnatoi
and two representatives , letting the laboi
unions add another and the remaining
places to bo tilled by tlio central commit
tee from any political party that maj
como up in the future. This plan hail

Tho.ro was n pilgrimage early in th

that Secretary of State Roggen had re

attorneys , politicians nnd ward workers
They wanted to see the secretary of stat

fall shook up the governor's oilice bndlj
and thu governor and his private seen

affairs of state. The deposed commii

ITEMS OF TUB r ITY.
The police judge has furnished Iran-
scripts for the district court of thirty-
eight cases for disposal there that have
arUen in police court since the may term
of the higher court. Twenty-eight of
these cases are ones in which parties
have been bound over to answer in a
court having linal jurisdiction in their
cases , and the other eight are appeal
cases taken up when the lower court has
parsed upon them. This is a small index
of what the work will bo iu district
court.
The Knights of Labor delegation that
has been in convention the last two
days departed homeward yesterday. As
their organization Is secret all the way

Ono of the elolegntes , however , said to
the HBB representative that ho was at the
Cleveland general assemble , 1C. of L , and
that gathering did not show a more in
telligent body of men than did the Ne
braska convention of this wcoic. The
labor interests of Nebraska are certainly
intelligent , and the compliment is well
said.

pleted the docket of the day.
Thereis an old shed building nt the
cast entrance of the capitol grounds that
ought to bo removed as a nuisance. It
is an eye-sore and a filthy place as well ,
and if a horse stable is necessary at the
capitol grounds it ought to bo put in a
less conspicuous place.

'U A9IUNGTOX , Sept. , 20. [ Correspond
ence of the HKB. ] 1 met an old lobbyist
to-day and asked him how the third
house had prospered during the last
session. His answer was too pictur
esque and lucid for publication , but hav
ing seduced him into a secluded scat and
placed him under the cooling inllucnco
of a mint Uilip , 1 induced him to give
mo a history of the work of the third
house in language that would not harm
thu paper. And hero it is :
"Business is played out , and yet there
ought to bo plenty. The movement to
forfeit lands granted to railways the
cllbrts to reduce appropriations the at
tempt to have the Ilenncpin cannlschcmc
approved the Eads ship railway job the
Mississippi river the fortifications , and
various other schemes ought to have
brought the third house nn abundance of
profitable business. There was plenty
of business but the profit was nil. The
dairy men and the oleomargarine mak
ers did put out a little money , but all the
other follows ollercd only contingents. "
"Do you know what contingents are ?
\ \ cll.if you don't I'll tell you. Youmustgo
to work and work the soles ofl your shoos
and blister your conscience , if you have
one , until Sam "Jones' denunciations and
hreats of lire hereafter will fall as harm
less on your ears as would the reading
about a cyclone in Dakota or another
earthquake in New Zealand , and if you
succeed in getting your man a million
dollars or save him two millions , he will
pay you a few hundred.
OH , KOlt TUB DAYS
When Sutro was hero with his five-
hundred dollar hills , or that Tom Scott
had governor Drown lighting IIuntingt6n
for a subsidy. Why , Eads had no con-
lideuco in las scheme , for though his
man Cockerill was here he didn't put out
any money and Charley Shcrill used ten
dollar bills where ho formerly put up
hundreds. I tell you the lobby is played
out. "
The veteran took a long pull at his
straw , contemplated the smoke of the
Ucina Victoria which I had handed him ,
and continued : ' 'These people who
want everything arc beginning to adopt
the English plan ; they have lawyers who
go before committee and make ar
guments instead ot having us take the
members individually and convince them
over a dinner at Walker's or Chamber-
Iain's and a night south of the avenue.
Then they pet the newspapers , botli hc-rt
and abroad , to work for them. That's
the came now and yon see how it ended.
"Charley Sherrell is on hand as usual ,
with Ins alter ego John ISoyd , but Char
ley doesn't disburse like ho used to. and
lie seems to want new men for his work ,
Alt ho is doing now is against the Heagan

as unanimous vote. I see tie has rtroppeil

"Dr. Bradford did some work. He was
in the postofiice site business , working
for the square where the postoflice no\\
is. The doctor had some other small
matters and captured a little boodle.
"Uriah Heop Painter was on hand , as
usual , but ho works on a regular salary
and does his business by giving the mem
bers
POINTS ON STOCK.
He don't disburse any money and enl
has to look out that no legislation aft'ccb
vho Pennsylvania railroad or any of Ste
offshoots , like the BaltLnoro & Potomac.
His only trouble is the citizens' commit
tco , who complain about streets beint
used as depots for freight cars , and 'citi
zcns' like those of the capital , who have
no votes , are not very strong with con
gressmen.
'D. C. Forney was in several thing !
outside of his regular work , but got none
of them through , so ho is not any richci

Brightened Future of Silk Culturi
Minneapolis Tribune : Some years ago
however , Edward W. Serrell , jr. , of Nov
York , undertook to solve the problem o
the automatic reeling of silk. It was i
dillicult ouc , but it appears that a satis
factory end has buen readied after tin
expenditure of several years of labor am
considerable sums of money. The out _
come is a silk reel which is now bcitij
put into operation in the south of Franci
through the co-operation of some of thi
leading banking houses of Lyons. Thi
machinery makes so great a saving ii
labor as to largely subordinate this sidi
of the question , and it is for this reasoi
tliat the silk raisers of our country hopi
by its aid to bring their efforts in cstab
lishing silk culture to a successful ter
nfmation.
If the experiments contemplated an
brought to a successful issue , the inr-reas
ing of the homo market for cocoons ma ;
then bo looked into with greater hope
for success. The market for the produc
of this establishment is already an activi
ono , as we imported during the last lisca
year raw silk to the value of nearly § 20 ,
000.000.
Though the work mentioned will b
the most important of the nature that tin
department will carry out during th
coming year , the entomologist , Professo
C. V. Kiloy , who is charged with thi
branch of the department's labors , wil
continue the work done in past years o
distributing silk worm eggs and sericul
tural information and literature. Ho ha
recently issued a new manual on silk cul
ture , wnich is now being gratuitous !
distributed. This is a revision of the eli
pamphlet published by the department
to which much now material of ayaluabl
nature has been added. The women' '
silk culture association of Philadelph !
has received congressional aid and wi
probaoly purchase cocoons during th
coming winter.

NEW STYLE FOR MEN.
"What TlicrVcnr nml JIo wit Is Malic.
There will bo much change In the
fasmon of men's clothes this fall and
winter not so much as tailors would
like , perhaps , since every decided varia
tion in sylc Increases their custom. To
begin nt the top nnd co down , it may bo
Paul that silk lints arc made n little higher
and with less bell shape than last year ,
although for elderly men the crown will
always bo slightly bell shapwl. The
brim is reasonably narrow aud well rolled
up on the sides. 1'hls style is not nearly
so becoming to mo.t men as the boll-
s-hapu , nnd it novcr proves popular long.
1'or the opera and theatre tall silk hats
will ho worn the old fashioned opera
hat being coii5itrr ! > d out of dato. K\-
Ircmo "swells" will carry their caiuy
and hats in tlio opera boxes as Well ns
when lounging in the club lioncs in the
evening. For low hat.s , the derby
is the only thing worn that is , cast
Alleghonlcs , West of that range
highly respected citizens still ap
pear in soft felt hats. The crown of-
tlio derby is a little lower and rounder
than last season. A narrow brim well
rolled on the sides giycs a jaunty air to it
when worn by quito young men. For
the middle aged man thu brim should bo
wider. [ N. 11. Keep your hair olosoly
clipped , out not to show thn scalp , even
behind. ]
Shirts have the collars high with the
tips turned over a pretty Dig turn , al
though a smaller turn looks butter. Culls
arc round nt the corner if that point is
left to the shirt maker to decide. Two
or throe studs may be worn ; but not one.
For evening dres the bosoms will be of
pique , sometimes slightly embroidered.
The collars and cuR'a should be of plain
linen. Square culls arc yet much liked
by some men. Linked slt-ovo button ?
continue to bo moro popular than the
single button. For evening dress they
are mostly white enamel like the studs ,
although cold may bo used.
Dress suits are 9f black , the watetcoal
ither white vesting stun'or of heavy
black silk with a little embroidery about
the opening ; tlireo or four buttons. The
opening is of the U shape. White waist
coats will bo popular for the theater and
opera especially. The material of the
suit may bo broadcloth or a very tine
worked diagonal. In some of the besl
shops they are now showing a black
worsted which looks like a line broad
cloth only with a magnifying glass i (
shows a tine diagonal. For the average
man a plain broadc' ° th suit is always
correct. The labels for young men mav
bo covered with silk.
tor morning dress , that is , until dinnet
time , the four or three-button cutaway is
the fashionable coat. Generally it is
made of line black diagonals no more
wide diagonals. Waistcoat ami coat are
cut low nt the neck ( but not round ) sc
that really three buttons look beit. II
the suit is to be worn in the oilico it is
not cut so low and four buttons are scon
on the coat. The garment is a shade
longer than last winter. Trousers will
show conspicuous stripes , Thny ma >
also be chocked with a large , almost in
visible , plaid running through the pat
tern. At the knees they will bo from
eighteen and : i half to nineteen inches ir
width wider than last season. When
suits are made of fnncv suitings they arc
"fancy1' and "English. " Sack coat's are
decidedly long and ugly , of course.
A three-button cutaway may bo worr
anywhere except where evening dress i. <
demanded that is , a black cutaway ant
"lightish" ( not light ) trousers. Yet f
good many men persist in getting oul
Prince Alberts or troek coats to appeal
in at afternoon entertainments. But this
is an American fa-shion and followed bj
those who" will not admit that men'r
styles nro set by Englishmen. Prince
Alberts are made reasonably short. Ii
you wear ono keen it buttoned.
Fall overcoats are like those of last fall ,
Winter garments for outside wear are o
rough cloth , single-brcastod , showing :
silk facing. Braid on the edge or not a.1
you please. They are a little longer , o ;
course , since cutaways arc a trille longer
It is said that some men this winter wil
wear very dark blue dress suits will
equally dark blue trousers showing f
raised broad stripe also dark blue. W ill
this rig , a white satin-looking waistcoa
showing faint spots of blue will be worn
If you see a man with such a suit on se
him down as a man of nerve but limitct
intelligence.
Shoes are broadening at the toes , with
out tips , witli cloth tops. Generally the
are made to button. Yet kid tops will
bows are worn in the street particularly
if the shoo is. patent leather. For even
ing dress b'lack cloth , patent-leather
buttoned shoes are the thing. The bos
shoemaker in town says that men nr <
coining to possess scnso enough to havi
their shoes made to lit comfortably , re
gardlc.ss of any other consideration. J
few weak-minded men still appear a
dances with patent leather "pumps.1
black silk stockings , and a sweet littli
black silk bow on the instep. In tlio day
time the same man would probably wea :
one of those low-cut out waistcoats show
ing much shirt front. It is a fashiqt
Sroporly called n la viorgcand few men ii
ow " \ ork as yet have so far unsoxci
themselves as to bo seen in such a gar
mont. In neck wear , as the waistcoat ii
front docs not button up high , Hat scarf
are not worn. Either the made-up four
in-hand is used , or a scarf tied in a larg
knot to look like a mnilo-up scarf. Sill
or satin or raw silk is the material , am
the pattern is selected according to fnncj
A fewwretched beings persist in wcarin ;
scart pins struck in the middle of this tic
Gloves arc dark or light tan with stitc.h
ing of the same color not black.
Here are a few points for the gidd
mala creature about to make his cntranc
into polite society :
Don't wear a shirt open behind. Thi
crime cannot be concealed. 'Have you
collars and culls on your shirts or stay i
homo.
Don't wear a low hat with cvcnln
du'ss or a Prince Albert coat ; nor a hig
hat with a sack coat. Diu first.
Don't wear your watch chain to she
with evening dress. Pawn it lirst.
Don't wear a whileor black silk t
satin tie with evening dress. White law
about three-quarters of an jnch wido.tin
by yourself , is the correct thing. If yc
wear a made up white tie don't she
yourself outside the bowery.
Don't suck the head of your cane. PCI
will think you have not been weaned.

QUEEN VICTORIA'S TRAIN.
How Her SInJoMj Trn > ols Wlu-n 1'ny-
Ing n Visit to Scotland.
Never were croatcr precautions taken
to secure the safety and comfort of a
sovereign when traveling , ns tlu > follow
ing few details will illustrate. To bccln
with , the royal train was lilted with an
cloctric.il communication between the
compartment of each saloon carriage
and the > guard's , and tolosjraph nii'ii nr-
iv.aApanied the trr.iii with the necessary
instruments and appliances for stnb-
lishing communication in ca o of ne-cos-
sity. Then a look-out man was placed
on the engine tender , > vith his face to
wards the remr of the train , so as to bo
ready to recolvo and communicate
with the driver any signal that might be
given- and the guard in the front van
had to keep his face constantly toward
the rear ol the train on the lookout for a
signal from tlio guard in the rear , or
from any of the attendants accompany
ing the train. Bovmiil this surface-men
wore stationed at all llio level cros > incs ,
and no vehicle of any kind was allowed
to pass for half an hour before the
royal train was duo. The goods
trallio on both lines was Siis-
ponded during the progress of her
majesty , and this speed of the passenger
trains proceeding in an opposite direc
tion was reduced to ten miles nn hour
while the royal train was passing them
on the oilier line. Precious lives must be
jealously guarded , wo know. But so
complicated , were the precautions for the
queen's safely that It seems to us a now
anger must therefore have been creatod.
. 'ho royal train consisted of twelve
chicles , including two royal saloons ole-
; antiy titled up. and the string was so
rranged that these caraiages were ex-
etly in the middle. Following the en-
line was n brake van , next a first-class
.arriago for men servants , a carriage for
nun servants , one for dressers and ladies'
uaids , then a carriage containing Lady
A'atcrpark and the lion. Horatia Stop-
'ord ; next came the queen's saloon , the
'rout part of which was'occupied by per-
onal servants and dressers and the pri-
ate portion by her majesty aud the
'rincess Beatrice ; then followed a scc-
nid royal saloon , in which was Prince
leury of Battenbergs next a carriage
ioutaming Viscount Bridport , Sir Henry
. 'onsouby , Major Edwards and Dr. Reid ;
AVO carriages for the directors and olli-
: ials of the railway companies , the
' ' " carriage contain *
'Queen's fourgon" a
ng the royal plate and the rear was
wrought up by another brake van.

Fainting the Town Red.
Pittsburg Dispatch : At this late day an
jtherorigiu for tlio expression , painting
t red , is given. Back in the ' 60s racing
ivas one of the exciting features of Mis
sissippi river travel , and when an oppor
tunity offered for a trial of speed all bands
were breathless with excitement. The
first command from the captain would
be : "Paint her red , boys ! ' which was
river slang for filling the lire-box will :
rosin in order to create a quick , hot fire ,
( it which time the fire-boxes would be :
thrown open. Then , if the night were
dark , the etfoct was simply grand. As
far ahead as the eye could sec the rivet
n'ould be a deep reel from reflection ,
forming a most beautiful picture , which ,
once seen , could never bo forgotten , ll
was at that time that the expression ,
'Paint the town red , " originated , as the
jld steamboatmcn intended to convey the
.dea by its use that they would lidyc s
