Fight For the Bryanitea.
(Special Correroondenee.)
Harrlsbnrg, Not. 14. The opposing
political orgnitatlons in Pennsylva
nia are now lining up for the great
presidential battle nert year, with the
Republican rallying under the tri
umphant banner of McKinley and the
Democracy gathering under the stand
ard or Bryan.
It is to be a clean cut contest, and
there will be no mistaking the issues.
The situation In thla state is about the
same as exists In nearly every state In
the Union. Republicans hail the strug
gle with delight and the Democrats ere
at a loss to know what to think about
their chances of success.
That the great Keystone state shall
take her proper place at the head of
the Republican movement for the re
nomination of President McKinley Is
assured. Within the last few days the
stalwart leaders agreed npon a program
which will leave no room to doubt the
attitude cf Pennsylvania Republicans
In the coming national Republican
convention. Colonel Quay. Senator
Penrose, Governor Stone, Chairman
Reeder, of the Republican state com
mittee, former Chairman Eikln, fcnong
others, have all gone on record in favor
of a prompt expression from the Re
publicans of the state. In accord with
the action of the last Republican state
convention, which declared-in the plat
form upon which the last canvass was
made that President McKinley Is the
undoubted choice of the Republicans of
Pent.svlvania for his own euc-essor.
CHAT WITH GOVERNOR STONE.
"The people of Pennsylvania." said
Governor Stone, "who believe in Re
publican principles are unquestionably
In favor of the renomination of Presi
dent McKinley. and I am glad to see
that the Republican organization has
gone on record in a positive manner
favorable 10 the renomination and re
election of the president"
The governor directed attention to
the fact that in the first plank of the
platform adopted at the last Republi
can Btate convention in Pennsylvania,
after making eulogistic reference to
President McKinley, this declaration
follows:
'Much of the success of the Re
publican policy adopted in 1896 is
due to the good Judgment, wise
counsel, administrative ability, far
reaching diplomacy and broad
minded statesmanship of our pa
triotic president.
"We firmly support and ftilly In
dorse his administration and place
on record the wish of the Repub
licans of Pennsylvania that he be
nominated to lead our hosts to vic
tory in the campaign of 1900, and
to this end we recommend the elec
tion of delegates who will gi7e his
candidacy earnest and vigorous
support in the next national con
vention." Following out the policy as embodied
la this plank of the party platform
the stalwart Republican leaders are
preparing to assist in the election or
Bone bat staunch McKinley men as
-elegates to the coming national con
vention. It Is not known when the
national convention will be held, but
It is likely that it will be in June or
July next. Senator Hana, chairman
of the Republican national commit
tee, has just announced that he will
call a meeting of the Republican na
tional committee to be held in Wash
ington shortly to tlx the time and name
the place of meeting for the Republi
can national convention. There is a
movement to secure the convention for
Philadelphia, and some Citizens of
Pittsburg have expressed a desire to
get the convection for that city. It is
difficult to forecast what will be done
In this particular.
Under the revisions of a rule adopt
ed for the government of the party or
ganization at the last Republican state
convention, at least 60 days' notice
must be given before the holding of the
state convention.
SENATOR PENROSE SPEAKS.
"The action of the state convention
In making an unequivocal declaration
pledging the Republican organization
of Pennsylvania to McKinley re
nomination," said Senator Boies Pen
rose, emphatically, "was undoubtedly
in accord with the sentiment of the
Republicans of the state. The cam
paign Just closed with such gratifying
results was conducted upon the Issue
that support of the Republican 6tate
ticket meant an indorsement of the
McKinley administration and concur
rence In the pledge of the platform of
the Republican state convention to fa
vor the renomination of the president.
The verdict of the people of this com
monwealth is eminently compliment
try to the McKinley administration,
and when coupled with the spiendid
Republican victory In Ohio, the presi
dent's own state, it makes a magnifi
cent tribute from the American peo
ple. The matter of the election of.
stalwart Republicans as delegates to
the Republican national convention
will now be taken up by the Republi
can voters of the respective districts,
and I have no doubt that no state in
the Union will send a delegation to the
next national convention which will
more satisfactorily. And truly represent
the bentiments I the Republicans of
their respective districts than will that
from Pennsylvania."
EX-CHAIRMAN ELKIN"S VIEWS.
"" "The vote at last Tuesday's elec
tion." said Attorney General John P.
Elkin. "must be. Indeed, gratifying to
every sincere friend of the president.
Pennsylvania will know no other
" choice for the presidency in 1900. A
ropnlar vote has already Indicated the
popular favorite. U now devolves
upon the mea identified with the parti
organization la the various congres
sional districts to select stalwart,
representative Republicans who will
go to the national convention pledged
to President MoKinley's renomination.
,; It was a happy ; thought to have had
'the recent Republican state conven
tion put the Republican organization
on record thus early, and it is pleasing
to find the sentiment of the voters of
the state so cordially concurring in
the proposition. The splendid organi
sation which has withstood the
nslaughts of political insurgents and
guerrillas for so many campaigns will
be lined np against any efforts to
break Into the national delegation ia
the Interest of any candidate other
. than President McKinley, and the
' 'organization will be found thoroughly
competent to thwart any scheme or ln
. trigue to divide the delegation against
: President McKinley."

ote at last Tuesday's election showed
conclusively that thev recognized the
tact that the Democratic candidates
and the Democratic leadership repre
sented Bryan ism and that a vote for
the Democratic ticket could fairly be
construed as a vote of confidence in
Bryan and the Bryan machine In
Pennsylvania. The fact that the
Democratic party in Pennsylvania re
fuses to be divorced from Bryanism
will ultimately mean that many for
mer Democrats will cease to have any
thing to do with the Democratic party
as at present constituted, and they
will ultimately become full fledged Re
publicans. HOW DELEGATES ARE CHOSEN.
The Democrats do not elect their
delegates to the national convention
In the same manner as the Republi
cans. The Republicans name two del
egates and two alternates from each
congressional district in the same
manner in which candidates for the
national house of representatives are
chosen. The delegates and alternatea-at-large
8 re elected by the Republi
can state convention. In the Demo
cratic party the delegates to the Demo
cratic state convention elect the na
tional delegates. A majority of the
state delegates from each congression
al district i scommend to the state con
vention the names of those they de
sire elected to the national convention
and it ia customary for the conven
tion to concur in these recommenda
tions. These district delegates, as well
as the delegates and alternates-at-large,
must be elected by the state
convention.
SOCIETY KLEPTOMANIACS.

One of the leading jewelers of the
capital was somewhat taken aback one
day, says a Washington paper, by re
ceiving from the wife of a high orllclal
an order for half a dozen gold nails
with a jewel In the head of each and a
t'ozen small gold cbalus. lie inquired
the uses to which the nails were to be
put, when bis patron said:
"You see, I have a number of very
valuable objects cf art, which,, al
though they are very expensive, are
very small and easily bandied. As the
wife of on official of the government,
I am obliged to open my bouse during
the season to the constituents of uiy
husband and the Washington curiosity
set-kin;; public in general. On my re
ception day, therefore, my house Is
crowded with all sorts of people, and
last winter I suffered the loss of sev
eral of my most valuable treasures.
"I have long been trying to devise
some plan by which I can keep ny
objects of art outside of my cabinets
and yet not have them stolen, for that
Is the only word I can use in regard
to the loss of my treasures. I have
concluded that I must either nail down
some of the bric-a-brac or chain it se
curely to the table, and hence I am go
ing to try this remedy. That is why
1 want these nails and chains."
This woman's predicament is not an
unusual one ia Washington official cir
cles. The kleptomaniacs who commit
the most aggravated depredations are
for the most part well known leaders
in society.
One winter social circles In Wash
ington were greatly bewildered and
shocked by the doings of one of the
btt known women In official circles.
A number of hostesses bean to miss
valuable dollies from their dinner ta
bles after they had given luncheons or
dinners, and finally several of them got
together and compared notes, and sus
picion fell uion one of the women
who had been to guest at luncheons
given by those gathered at the confer
ence. Finally the wife of a prominent dip
lomat determined to stop the raid upon
the doilies, and at the next luncheon
she seated the suspected kleptomaniac
next to her. When the doilies were
brought on. she watched her guest and
discovered that tb latter laid her dolly
on the table and. carelessly dropping
her handkerchief over It. picked up
both.
The hostess. In a most charming
manner, turned to her guest and said:
"Pardon me, my .dear Mrs. , but
1 am afraid you have my most ex
quisite doily in your handkerchief. It
is so Que I am afraid it will be crush
ed and therefore call your attention
to your Inadvertence in taking it up
vritb yonr handkerchief."
The guest was not in the least abash
ed, and with a laugh she shook out her
handkerchief, and the dolly fell back
on the table, whereupon she exclaimed:
"Why, dear me, so I have! How very
careless of me
There were significant glances all
around the table, but no more dollies
were lost during that season.
THE OPEN MOUTH.
Said ta Be a Sarvival at Baa-aaa-TeaacBelea.
Hiram 51. Stanley advances a new
explanation of the tendency to open the
mouth in surprise and astonishment.
Darwin ascribed this tendency to the
Intuitive desire for quietness and ef
fectiveness of breathing and to mere
relaxation of the muscles. Mr. Stanley
finds a deeper organic reason namely,
that the open mouth is the attention
sign, and is a primitive and constant
reaction with the young of many ani
mals for the reception of food for ex
ample, with birds.
Any wiund or other stimulus immedi
ately, causes the young bird to extend
its mouth. With young infants the
same Influence has often the same ef
fect Tbe mouth of the Infant under
Mich stimulation usually assumes the
sucking form, and Its smile when the
finger is itointed at it may be either
nascent or degraded sucking.
Mr. Stanley maintains that the com
mon and highly useful tendency of the
very young to open the mouth to all
stimuli, visual, aural, etc., continues as
a survival in after life, being especially
brought out with stimuli of high inten
sity and unusual quality and thus be
comes a mark of surprise and astonish
ment. It is a habit very common
anion. boys and girls to open the
mouth under any attention. The rise
of smiling aud laughter as connect
ed with wit and humor at the basis of
which Ilea surprise thus deem res it
self as a kind of attention expression.
Assuming that the primary expres
sion of the mouth is a feeding expres
sion and that this probably has been
modified and evolved In connection
with a variety of attention phenomena,
Mr. Stanley suggests that It would be
worth while to make a detailed study
of expression In infants and young ani
mals with this point In view. St. Louis

"A recent newspaper article," said a
physician, "called attention to two
curious facts, or rather, alleged facts,
aboct poison. First, that It is so sel
dom resorted to by innrderers, and,
second, that it! nse is almost invaria
bly followed by detection. One might
answer both statements with the ques
tion: How do we know? How do we
know that the few clumsy cases that
coiue to light represent the sum of that
kind of crime?
"It is undeniably true that there are
certain drugs which, if administered
with skill, would be almost Impossible
to detect. Their symptoms are practi
cally Identical with those of familiar
diseases, and a little while after death
they decompose, change form and dis
appear. It would be possible, too, to lanocu
late a victim with the germs of some
deadly malady. He would then go to
his grave with a real case of consump
tion or pneumonia or lockjaw, and
there would be nothing to arouse the
shadow of suspicion. I believe firmly
that such crimes are committed and
never discovered, but I believe also
that they are very care. The real safe
guard of a community lies In the fact
that so few murderers possess the req
uisite skill.
"Educated people seldom commit de
lilierate murder," continued the doctor,
"and the uneducated mind Instinctive
ly associates poison with two sub
stancesarsenic and strychnine. They
are the deadly drugs most familiar to
the public, and fortunately they are
easily detected. Murder by arsenic la
lnlinitely clumsy. To begin with, the
symptoms are marked and peculiar;
being a metallic product. Its traces re
main in the body an Indefinite time.
"Lart summer a women in Barce
lona. Spain, confessed that she had
poisoned her sister with arsenic 15
years before. The grave was opened
and the coffin found to contain nothing
but dust and ashes, but a chemical test
showed unmistakably the presence of
the drug.
"Mrs. Maybrick was accused of kW
Ing her husband with arsenic, and the
test revealed It plainly not only in the
remains, but In certain medicines. The
demonstration was so conclusive that
she finally arose In court aud admitted
giving him a 'white powder.' but insist
ed that she followed his own express
directions.
"One of the most ingenious cases of
poisoning I ever hpard of occurred
some years ago in another state. A
young physician plotted to kill a
wealthy farmer. He knew the latter
was taking quinine for a cold and.
meeting him one day. Asked to ace
what size capsules he used. . While
pretending to examine them, he slip
ped in one containing strychnine. The
farmer happened on It nearly a week
later and died in convulsions. An au
topsy revealed the poison, but the af
fair was a deep mystery until the doc
tor committed suicide, leaving a writ
ten confession. N
"The poisonings that occur In novels
and on tbe stage are usually very
amusing to a student of toxicology,"
said the physician In conclusion-. "I
renumber in 'Sani'I of Posen,' which
was produced with sueh success by M.
It. Curtis, the drummer hero was tem
porarily knocked out by a poisoned ci
gar. He took' two or three whiffs, and
over lie rolled. I would like very much
to know the name of the drug that
would produce that Rort of effect
"Nearly all the poisoning in fiction Is
eoual'y surprising. Jliere Is a well
known English romance in which the
heroine Inhales the fragrance of a
bunch of roses and Instantly falls dead.
Needless to say. the poisoned perfume
Is wholly unknown to science.
"Another story But I could keep
on citing Instances all night. History
isn't in nib letter. Most of the yarns
of tbe Borgias and Medicis are pure
moonshine, especially those about poi
so tied gloves, poisoned tapers and oth
er applications of drugs or things that
are touched or handled.
The tale of the book which was
anointed on the margins with some
deadly substance that killed the per
son who moistened his fingers to turn
the leaves has possibly a foundation In
truth, but. I confess. I would be pus-

When I lived at Newport. R. I., from
1804 to 1STS, says Colonel T. W. II lg-

constant procession of foreign visitors,
varying in interest and often quite
wanting In it. I remember one eminent
literary man who. In spite of all cau
tions to the contrary, appeared at a
rather fashionable day reception in
what would now be called a golf suit,
of the loudest possible plaid, like that
of the Scotch cousin in Punch. who
comes down thus dressed for church
to the terror of his genteel cousins. In
this case the vlstor also wore a spy
glass of great size, bung round his

Another highly connected English
man, attending an evening reception
given expressly for him, came into the
parlor with his hat and umbrella in his
hand, declining to be parted from
them through the. whole evening,
which suggested to a clever Newport
lady ihe story of the showman who
exhibited a picture of Daniel in the
lions' den and pointed out that Daniel
was to be distinguished from the lions
by having a blue cotton umbrella un
der his arm. In this case, the lady re
marked that the conditions were re

Not by fire, nor by water, nor by gun
shot These are mere pleasures to
some of the deaths by which you may
die.
The most agonizing of all is causl
by an Insvct half the size of a pea-a
small Mack spider. It lives In Peru
and South Australia, but a few speci
mens have reached Europe and Amer
ica In shlploa.ls of timber.. Not long
ago a dock laborer was imlucky
enough to come upon one Iu the !c
torla docks while nnloadiug u.bark.
The tiny death dealer dropped upon
the back of bis hand and dug Its fang
Into his tlesh. The bite itself was noth
ing, but as soon as the poison began to
work the man fainted with pain. Sjob
afterward he came to and lived three
days before the end came.
This spider's venom scorches up the
blood vessels and spreads through all
the tissues, causing the most fearful
ageny a human being can have to bear.
The worst of it is that the victim lives
at least two days, enduring unthlnka
ble anguish the whole time. This spi
der is luckily not common. It Is known
as the "speck y," and when a man who
knows what the bite means Is bitten he
generally blows out his brains.
Another fearful death Is caused by
eating a grain called "bhat." This
sometimes gets mixed with rice, which
It resembles. The plant grows In the
east and a few grains of It will drive
one Into a state of violent mania. Tbe
victim becomes drowsy at first and aft
erward hilarious, then he goes stark,
staring mad end tears himself literally
to pieces with bis fingers, biting inouth
fuls out of Lis limbs. It Is bad enough
to see such a case, bnt as for experi
encing It
This grain s only found In remote
part3 of the east, but both white men
and 'natives are killed by It occasion
ally In the cast, for the plant grows In
with the rice crops and can scarcely be
told niart. but that the dried grain Is
of a reddish color.
Of course falling into a vat of boiling
metal r.s unfortunate workmen some
times do, sounds bad enough, but It Is
mercifully quick. There Is a South
American vine called the "knotter,"
which Is far worse. It twines around
any living thing that comes within
reach, twisting Its long tentacles about
a man as a devilfish might These
tentacles sear and burn into the flesh
like white hot wires, and the victim is
dragged Into the heart of the foliage
and his Juices slowly drained, as a
spider sucks the blood of a fiy.
All say that the pain Is worse than
they could have believed it possible
for a man to feeL The "knotter" is
well known to scientists and is, in fact
a sort of huge flytrap-plant Those
who have strong Instincts of cruelty,
coupled with curiosity, sometimes force
a dog Into the grip of the "knotter" to
watch tle effects, which are too horri
ble to descrllie In detalL
Again, there Is nothlug very much
worse than hydrophobia, when genu
ine. The patient often lives for days
In the acute stage and In his last hours
Is simply tied up in knots and bent
backward and forward like a bow.
It Is a very rare disease with human
beings, for most pecple bitten by rabid
dogs, a small number at most escape
it . In extreme cases the patient act
ually snarls and bays like auy hound,
and. next to experiencing It the worst
thing Is to watch a case. It is as dis
tressing a spectacle as any man could
witness.
There is a snake called the "lancer,"
which lives in South America, ajd Is
very ready with Its fangs. It Is a small,
brown, insignificant beast, but ltn bite
Induces a sort of imaginary swelling
all over the victim's body. He feels
as If every Inch of him were being
strained to breaking point and the
agony which results Is too awful for
words. Generally, however, the ex
cess cf pain drives the bitten man mad
before very long, and In four hours he
dies a senseless imbecile.
But. all said and done, perhaps there
is no death much worse than by the
common disease of "cancer, which
gnaws at the patient's vitals through
month after month of unceasing ago
ny and slays Its victim at hist through
sheer exhaustion. London Spectator.

One of the many stories told of the
bite Dr. Wallace. M. P.. is to the effect
that when the editor of a local paper
in the north asked him "if he would
kindly furnish an article on .'a light
theological topic'" Wallace responded
with one bearing the title "The Rela
tions Between tbe Presbyterian Church
and Modern Thought."- When set np
the article made 40 columns, and it be
came a puzzle to editor and printer
bow to get rid of It. They began by
using it in pieces, and whenever the
printer said to the editor, "We've got
no leader," the reply was, "Eh. mon.

DIAMOND DOLLARS OF 1804.

-Every now and tbvn one reads about
the discovery of another of the famous
M-rrjaJ dollars' of ISM." said a K
ttemaa of this city who owns one of
tbe finest private collections of coins
nd medals In the south. "The dollars
of that date are popularly surposed to
be worth front $ 1.500 to apiece,
and if a few originals could be pro
duced I dare say they would bring that
figure easily enough- But it happen,
unluckily, that there are only four on
earth, and they are locked np In the
vaults of the treasury building at
Washington aud couldn't be bought at
any price. They are what are known
as the 'tost pieces, which are aUaya
laid aside whenever a new coin U
struck, end tbe rest of the issue U at
this niouunt quietly reposing under
several inilea of deep Ulue sea. The
true story Is rather Interesting. In
ISO! the mint at I'Ulndelphla Is known
to have turneJ out 1U.570 silver dollars.
That was the entire Issue, barring the
test pieces I have Just spoken of. and
It was never put into circulation. The
whole lot. jut as it came from the
stamping presses, was dumped Into an
Iron chest and put on board a met
chanman bound for China. It was
directed to the captain of a United
States frigate then in oriental waters,
and was Intended to be used in paying
certain expense cwnected with the
service. The merchantman ran Into a
Chinese typhoon and went to tbe bot
tom, where to the best of my Informa
tion she still remains, iron chest and
all. and that is the reason your Uncle
Sam is the ouly collector in the world
who has a complete set of American
dollars. Every other collection, includ
ing my own. Is short one Issue, and the
gap will never be filled until the sea
gives up Its own.
