The Minneapolis Convention Is Evidently "Making Haste Slowly." •Speelai to

the

Journal:

MINNEAPOLIS, Jnne 9, 1892, 10:30— The day opens bright and warm. Heavy delegations from all factions were abroad until the early hours. The euthusiaom shows no abatement.

The sensation of the morning is the reception of the Credential Committee last night by the Blaine people. Many straight delegation meetings this morning will delay the opening ot the first session to-day by "giving New Mexico six votes. There are 902 votes in convention of which 452 are necessary to a choice or a majority. 11:10—McKinley raps for order, and Rev. Dr. Brush, of Soutli Dakota offers prayer. 11:18—Warner Millers enters the hall. One halt the delegates present, but arriving rapidly.

McKinley takes seat on platform and is cheered. 11:39—There nre all sort of rumors in the air. Ono says the Harrison men will try to force a ballot to-night. It is now oxjtectod tin* credential committee will 1P ready to report at 1 o'clock this p. 111. 11:45— The chairman requests the secretary to read list of names and telegrams for delegates.

Bports From Ripley.

Ripley township is quivering with suppressed excitement ovor the great Elmore inter-family feud and when the Alamo hack deposited its load before the Mayor's oflico this morning the warring factions tripped lightly upstairs and proceeded to air their family linen. It seems that 4he friendship which has long existed between James and Jake Elmore was anything but brotherly and very naturally the wives share their husband's feelings. On the morning of May 30 James Elmore was hitching his horse to his brother's fence when Mrs. Mira Elmore stepped out and ordered him to unhitch the infernal thing—infernal is a standard word in Ripley—or she would do it for him. Here the testimony differed very materially for while James vowed that Mira cursed and raved like a trooper and threatened to spill his brains with a rock, Mira declared that the rock was nothing more than a pint of borrowed coffee which she was returning and that she was the grieved one inasmuch as it was James who wns in the wrong, hnving blackguarded, threatened and grossly insulted her. The witnesses were unanimous in their testimony that there was "a right smart ot talking and a tolerable good deal of ill feeling" manifested. James was arreBted on the charge of profanity and Mira for provoke. Mayor Bandel took the matter under advisement.

This afternoon Mayor Bandol found both parties guilty of provoke and fined enoh one dollar and costs.

Brilliant Society Event.

Again Mr. Nig Seering has succeeded in breaking into the public print, and by the snme token into the county iil. Last evening while the youth, beauty and off color chivnlry of the north end were tearing up the earth at the popular "merry-go-round," the young ladies squealing with joy at the loving pressure ot the arms of their lieaux which encircled their dainty, wasp like waists— while all this harmless frivolity was going on Mr. Seering, who poses as a sort ot a lloosier Ward McAllister, appeared on the scone. Mr. Jimuiie Butcher, the popular and well known young society gull, whose engagement to meet Nig in the prize ring was announced two vjoeks ago, was busily engaged in dropping upper case compliments in the earB of a blushing fair one when Nig strode up to him. After a formal exchange of courtesies Mr. Scoring toyed for a moment with his watch chain and remarked politely, "Yon wouldn't fight me, wonld'nt yon When Mr. Butcher answered negatively Mr. Seering dropped the blase manner so incident to his socil make up and proceeded to punch the face of his antagonist. Tho "morry-go-round" which was playing "Annie Rooney's'Brother" stopped, the Indies shrieked, and several ot tho chivalry ran up the back allies. Finally Mr. Butcher escaped and hastened to his boudoir to wash tho blood off. This morning Mr. "Nig" was arrested in the apartments of tho Knickerbocker club across from the Monon station and rudely incarcerated.

SUNDAY 0LOSING.

The Merchants Who Agree to Give Up to the .Law of the Land. The following communication from the Law and Order Loague, together with the appended list of those agreeing to close Sunday is printed to-day Where there is no proviso made tho closing will be absolute. More names will be published later:

Tho movement for a general closing of business houses on Sunday was started a few weeks ago and which is spreading throughout the oity is timely and important! It secures to the tradesman and the employes a right of his which has of late been denied him to a great extent. The Sunday rest uiny be said to be a natural right of the individual man. Society has no right to compel him to surrender it. It may be necessary in some instances, but the wholesale way in whioh it has been trampled upon and the growing demand in this direction is raising a protest nnd rightly so. It is oppression and robbery and the public is the oppressor and robber. It is time that the public conscience be awakened to the injustice which is being done the tradesman and employes in requiring them to open their places of business on Sunday and forego their enjoyment ot the Sunaay rest. There the blame rests and not with the tradesman. He would bo glad to have his Sunday undisturbed by business but is unwilling to incur the loss. The success of this humane movement will depend upon tho patrons entirely. Those who have signed the closing agreement expect the approval of tho publio and if they nre not supported by the public will soon be found opening their places of business on Sunday as formerly. The few who have not, as yet signed the agreement, have withheld their names solely on this nccount: "Our patrons demand the opening ot our stores—we cannot afford to lose their pntronage." All want their right to Sunday rost yielded them. The public is Jjound to consider nnd grant that right" It has already don'e so in the case of the barbers. It will do so in all cases if those whoso right is now being disregarded will persist in closing and in aiding the reform. Moreover Sunday closing is a legal right. The tradesman who keepB his trade going on Sunday is a breaker of the law. Will his patrons compel him to bo a violator of the law? The few perhaps would. The mnjority ot our community believe in the law because it would protect and securo to each man his right. The tradesman tnny invoke the lnw and will, soon. Let him. Let him say to hi3 unpatriotic patron. 1.—You should not ask me to surrender my Stmdny right. 2.—You should not ask me to violate the law to accommodate you. 3.—Yon should not trample upon the natural and iegnl rights of others.

Thoso agreeing to close nre as follows

A SUDDEN CALL.

James Adams, a College Junior, Drops Dead This Moraine About three weeks ago James Harris Adams, a Junior in Wabash College,was taken sick with peritonitis. He was an athletic young man and although quite sick, he began to mend some days sinoe and was apparently on the high road to recovery. His original complaint had entirely gone, although it left him, of course, quite weak. Yesterday he was strong enough to bo removed from a room nt Murray Hills, on west Wabash avenue to one nt Mrs. Deborah Hauser's residence on south Washington street. This morning ho felt unusually well,and calling to thoso in the house he laughed nnd tnlked for some timo, and finally ordered some copies of the "Judge" to help him pass away the time. When the papers camo I10 nroso and sitting down in a chair began to road. Almost immediately ho grow faint and calling to Mr. Ball, his attendant, ho dropped back helpless. Ho rapidly grew weaker and before his physician, Dr. Cowan, could nrrivo ho wns dead. Hiii death was canned by heart failure.

Mr. Adams was about 25 years of age, and had been attending college three years, ne was not fraternity man but wns well likod by nil the students for hiB earnestness nnd his hard work. He wns ministerial student and wns working his way through college to a large extent. Ho was quite an atlileto nnd wns one of tho best players on the foot ball team. His death coming so suddenly is terrible shock to his friends. His pnrents aro dead, but his two brothers residing at Wild Cat, near Frankfort, were at onco wirod the sad news. Mr. Adams expected to start for his home to-morrow. The funeral of Mr. Adntns will occur to-morrow morning from the residence of Mrs. Hauser, at 7 o'clock, Dr. Tuttle and Dr. Cnnninghnm officiating. The remains will be shipped to his home via the Yandalia at 8:14 o'clock, and pall bearers from his class will accompany them.

JUNE RECEPTION.

Mrs. A. A. Snraguo and Daughter, Miss Belle, Receive This Afternoon. Mrs. Col. A. A. Sprague and daughter, Miss Bello, were at home this afternoon at their residence on east Jefferson street to their friends to the number of about one hundred. It was a June re coption and the lovely decorations were June liowers,roses largely predominating The rear portion of the largti front hall was separated off by an immense arch made ot roses, smilnx, ivy and peonies for a punch room nnd here Misses Ruby Lieoce, of Indianapolis, Martha Thomas, Nan Elston and Mary Goltra entertained the guests in a most charming manner. In tho parlor Mrs. and Miss Sprague were nssisted in receiving by Mre. O. B. Arms, Mrs. S. L. Ensminger and Miss Alma McCleur. The decorations ot the room were palms, and red nnd white roses and peonies in great profusion. An immense tlornl basket was suspended from the middle of the room by a hoavy pink ribboon giving quite an effect to the other decorations. In tho back parlor the decorations wore strictly green and white, roses and maiden hair ferns covering the tables and walls while beautiful potted plants stood in banks in the several corners of tho room. In the dining room, whore a dainty luncheon wns served by Zeigler Roimnn, the decorations were pink and green. An immense palm occupied the center of the room nnd festoonB of smilnx and ferns interwoven with roses ndomod theohandeliers nnd walls. The affair was a most enjoyable and successful one in all its details, and a social event reflecting no little credit upon tne entertaining ladies.

Galbroatli, deceased, appeared as plaintiff and the L. N. A. ft C. R. R. is named as defendant.
