" Columbus, Ohio, June 16. The most
critical campaign in the history of pol-:
itics opened today, when the gavel fell
on one of the most enthnsiastic republi
can state conventions the Buckeye com
mon wealth ever has known.
The importance of the result of the cam
paign not only to the state but to the na
tion is fully realized and all devices known
to modern politics will be exerted by both
parties to win a favorable verdict from
the people next November.
General Asa S. Bushnell of Springfield

manent chairman. .
It was arranged that the convention
Bhould occupy two days. This forenoon
was devoted to the meeting of various
congressional delegates and the selection
of anew state committee and committees
on credentials, resolutions and organiza
tion.
The chief event of the evening will be
the reception to McKinley by the Lin
coln league.
The nomination of William McKinley,

A Tennessee Cloud Burst.
Knoxville, Tenn., June 16. At Neu
monville, Queen county, on Saturday
last a cloud-burst ' did great damage.
The place is remote from railroads and
telegraph. The fall of water was terriffic.
The store-house, residence and out
buildings of T. M. King were carried
away. The post office was kept in his
store and everything was lost. A num
ber of other houses were swept away

lauds were destroyed. Considerable
stock was drowned but no lives were
lost. The damage to property will
amount to a large sum.
A Canadian Village Burning l'p.

gers of the Canadian Pacific train which
passed through Castleman last night
report the town. burning up. .They say
that great piles of lumber and stacks of
tanbark and nearly every house and
store in the village is on fire. Men,
women . and children were frantically
rushing toward the woods with what lit
tle they could carry. There is no possi
bility now of ascertaining whether there
is loss of life, but the destruction of
property must be enormous. The popu
lation of the town is about one thousand.
Still After the Gambler-Prince.
London, June 16. The popular crus
ade against the Prince of Wales is showr
ing no signs of losing strength or bitter
ness. At seven religious meetings held
in various parts 'of the country, yes
terday the prince was roundly denounc
ed for the share he took in the baccarat
scandal. The newspapers still keep up
their attacks upon the prince.

TENNY A GREAT FAVORITE.
A Suburban Race at Sheepshead Today
is Now Being Bus.
Sheepshead Bav, June 16. Long be
fore noon today coaches and carriages
by the dozens betran to come through
the gates and take up good position in
the field with the thermometer well on
its way toward 100 degrees, in the city.
A good stiff breeze blew over the bay
and made the intense heat at least tol
erable. The suburban handicap is the
second big racing event of the year.
Tenny is the most pronounced favorite.
It is said that Tenny will go to the post
carrying over $1,000,000 for the general
public. The track is in a splendid con
dition and the turf favorable for a great
race and fast time.

CANADA'S PREMIER.
Thompson Was Asked, but Declined Be
cause of the Opposition.
Ottawa, June 14. Mr. Abbott, the
premier-elect, spent several hours at his
office in the senate chamber today, and
bad manv callers, it is omcialiv learned
he is making progress in his task of
forming a ministry, and will likely be
able to announce, when the chamber
meets Tuesday, that he hps been suc
cessful. The government will be carried on on
the old lines until after the session,
when the reconstruction takes place.
So far as can be learned all the recent
colleagues of the late Sir John Macdon
ald have been invited to join Abbott's
miniatrv. It is definitelv known al
ready that Hector Langevin, Sir John
Thompson, Hon. George Foster and
Hon. Mackenzih Bowell nave accepted.
If any trouble occurs it will come from
Hon.'j. A. Chapleau, who asserts he re
gards Sir John Thompson as the best
.qualified, under the circumstances, for
the premiership. Abbott cabled to Lon
don ordering his broker to sell all his
stock in the Canadian Pacific railroad.
President Van Horn has also received
Abbott's resignation as director of the
company. Sir John Thompson was, it is
understood, asked by the governor gen
eral to form a ministry, but he declined,
owing to the opposition of two of his
French colleagues and ultra-Protestants
of Ontario.
WELL RECEIVED IN LONDON.
London, June 14. The selection of
Senator Abbott as successor to Sir John
MacDonald is generally accepted as the
wisest ' selection that could have been
made. The strength of the British con
nection is believed to lie in Ontario, the
west and the maritime provinces, in
which Abbott is popular. It is said by
leading Canadians residing in London
that the government acted wisely in
prefering the wishes of the British colon
ies to the desires of the French Canad
ians. Since the visit of Premier Mercier
to Paris, and the speeches there,
averring the undimmed devotion of the
old to the new France, the British mind
has not been so well satisfied of the at
tachment of Guebec to the empire, and
there is less disposition than in former
years to see everything in Canada
subordinated to the whims of the French
settlers. It is known that numerous
telegrams passed between Ottawa and
London before Abbott was named and
there is no doubt that he is the choice
on this side of the Atlantic as well as on
the other. The appointment is also
considered thoroughly safe from a busi
ness point of view, which, in the present
financial condition of the Dominion, is
important.
. The Highest in the United State.
Modesto, June 14. The Turlock and
Modesto irrigaton districts have let the
contract for a dam across the Tuolumne
river near La Grange. The dam will be
105 high, twenty feet wide and 320 feet
long at the crest and ninety feet wide
and sixtv feet long at the base. The
dam will be the highest overflow dam in
the United States.
SIXTY PERSONS KILLED.
Horrible Accident to a Railroad Train
in Switzerland.
Berne, June 14. A horrible accident
occurred on the Moenchen, Stein & Bale
railway today, through the collapse of a
bridge beneath a heavily loaded excur
sion train, crowded with people on their
way to attend a musical fete. Sixty per-,
sons were killed outright, while hund
reds were injured. The two engines and
the first car plunged into the river, and
all the passengers in the car were
drowned. Two cars remained suspended
irom tne oriage. ah the trainmen were
killed. Thirteen cars were saved.
The musical fete at Muenchenstein
was abandoned as soon as the news pf
the accident arrived, and hundreds of
villagers hurried to the scene to assist in
rescuing the victims. The bridge was an
iron skeleton structure, which was con
sidered well built and substantial. The
only apparent reason for t he collapse of
the .bridge is that the train left the rails
and threw its entire weight on the side
of the bridge.
HAS LEFT THE CHURCH.
Because of the Action of the Synod at
the Pittsburg Meeting.
Baltimore, June 14. The Rev. Dr.
E. M. Smith, of the Hartford Avenue
Reformed Presbyterian church, today
preached his farewell sermon and an
nounced to his congregation that he
could no longer consistently be a mem
ber of a church in this free country that
forbade its ministers the right of fran
chise. Dr. Smith said the church author
ities had not persecuted him in the least.
For some time past he has differed with
the radical element of the covenanters,
but had hoped that the recent trial at
Pittsburg of the young ministers would
result differently. In expelling the
young men, however, for no other reason
that theyhad exercised their rights and
their duties as American citizens, was
more than he could stand. Dr. Smith
says he will seek admission to the regu
lar Presbyterian church, and it is likely
that many of his congregation will . fol
low him.
Successful Grafting of Skin.
Kansas City, Mo., June 14. A suc
cessful grafting of skin sufficient to
patch up two legs was completed here
yesterday. . A year ago A. C. Fulkerson
stepped "into a vat of boiling grease.
The flesh of both legs from the knees
down was cooked away. The only
method of repairing the damage was by
grafting skin from human beings upon
the injured members. One hundred
and sixty persons, Odd Fellows and
Knights of Pythias, of which organiza
tions Fulkerson wss a member, contrib
uted portions of their anatomy to be
used in piecing up Fulkerson's wounds.'
The grafts were about 1000 in number
and a majority of the cases were success
ful. Fulkerson was out today enjoying
the use of both limbs.
New York "Recorder" Republican.
New York, June 14. The Recorder,
in its issue today, says that the paper
has passed into the hands of a new
management, and will be published as a
republican journal, ady oca ting the prin
ciples of that party. "Principles, not
men," is the legend on its banner. It
would be folly, the paper says, to pin
the faith and hope of a grand organiza
tion to the life of an individual, yet it
expresses a ferveut hope for the restora
tion of Mr. Blaine to perfect health and
asserts that if he were nominated and
an election held at once he would un
doubtedly be elected.
The London Laundresses.
London, June 14. The laundresses of
London, supported by numerous trade
societies, aggregating 80,000 persons, had
a demonstration in Hyde i-ark tcday.
Louise Michel harangued the crowd
from the socialist platform. Resolutions
were carried to ths effect that laundress
es should be assisted to secure the ben
efits of the factory act.
Half an Average Crop.
" Paris, June 14. Inquiries instituted
by a trade journal in over 400 wheat
growing districts resulted in the compil
ation of a report, setting forth that the
total wheat crop of France this year will
amount to a little over half the average
crop.
Kiss Currency.
Agnes, aged 4, called in at an np-town
grocery store the other day. "I want a
'tick of gum," she annonnced. After
getting the desired article she remarked
that she hadn't "any penny." "How
do you expect to pay for your gum ?"
queried the vendor of delicacies. "Well,"
announced the youthful philosopher, "I
will give you a kiss." The kiss was
taken, but Agnes stayed, and finally,
flushed with success, she made another
offer. "My cousin Ethel would like a
'tick, and I'll give you another kiss for
it." Both girls chewed that afternoon.

There' are some funny mistakes in the
session laws of 1891 as printed. The law
creating the new corporation of McMinn
ville makes the western boundary of
that city a point forty-five miles west of
where it ought to be, in the Pacific
ocean ; then it runs the city lines - south
thirteen and one-half miles from that
point, and the McMinnvillians don't
know just what to do about it.
A young man who boasts of expanded
ideas only has a swollen head.
