ABOUT BUYING RUGS, In buying Turkish rugs one drawback is the amount of time wasted, but to tho Turk time is utterly of no yalue. lie would just as soon spend a day in dickering over one rug as not, and if noon-time should come while the trade is going on, he will atop abruptly, pull down his prayer rug, kneel upon it, bow his head to the dust and say his prayers, entirely indifferent to his customera convenience. lie will frequently refuse to trade or talk business, answering all protests with "To-morrow."

AFTERNOON SPENT IN TALK

Democrats Have Diverse Yiews as to the Time for Their State Con yention Candidates Want Their Tate Settled Early, but ilanagers Favor Delay Hate jftxed in Ao gut Bepuilican County Convention. . When tho Democratic State central committee came together yesterday afternoon, in its pleasant quarters in Union Block, on West Maryland utreet, there were as many candidates na committeemen present Of the latter, hut one remained away, and it is possible, if the candidates had been catted off, the list would have numbered ono or two more than the commit tee. Two aspirants for office did not go neur headquarters during the sitting of the committee. They were Tho 8. B. Bvrnes. of Evansvillfl. and Albert Gall, candidates for State Treasurer. Over in the committee reception-room was thoir opponent, BergholT, of Fort Wayne, and with tho committeemen themselves their other opponent, P. 1L McCorinack. of Columhus. McConnack possessed this advantage by right of membership, rod could afford to chuckle over it, as the committee had ordered all candidates not of its body out of its private room. The disDarred received tho order graciously, and it was after it was nut in force that Meesrs. Byrnes and Gall got together in the Grand Hotel to exchange confidences. Mr. Byrnes did not remain long, for he got his crip and started off to take a traiu for Mrracie, wLen he met ex chairman and, presumably, ex-manager of his party, i ame- li. Kice. Mr. Kice had just returned from Terre Haute, and asked Byrnes what brop.ghthini to Indianapolis. The Evansvilie gentleman mentioned casually in his reply, the meeting of the committee. "What! Is the committee meeting here to-dayT" inquired Kice. "Certainly, didn't you know it!" said uyrnes. "I have so much to attend to now. that it is hard for mo to keep track of political occurrences," remarked Rice. 'Well, if you have so little concern about politics, go with me to Muncie," was the invitation of Bvrnes. "Can't do it this afternoon. I have business here, but I will moot you in Muncie to-morrow. But why are you away from the committee's meeUng?" They will not let candidates in except those member ol the committee and there 8 DrV90 of my staying hero." 'W hy did dot tho candidates in the commi.tf 5 let frnebody take their proxies!" .! 5 flot occur to them, perhaps." It ai.d to mo when I was a candidate for Auditor of State." sharply said Kice. and so the conversation closed, Byrnes going to Muncie and Kice remaining here to keep the Democrats from getting away from him altogether. It was about ast uninteresting a meeting, yesterday, as the Democrats have held for a long time. It was called for general purposeu, but the candidates, nearlv all in the field for Clerk of tho Supreme Court, Superintendent of Publio Instruction and Treasurer of State, have been, for a long time, restless concerning the time for the State convention. The committee did not propose to fix it yesterday, but when the meeting was called to order the first thing broached was the State convention. A discussion followed that occupied most of the afternoon and but attle time was left for other business. ExSenator McDonald was taken into tho committee? confidence, but for some cause not 8tated ex-Goveruor Gray was not present. About the time he should have been there, if he nad any preference as to the date for the convention, he was in the federal courtroom. He went there to see how his friend Lee F.Wilson was getting along in his trial for violating the pension laws. But it is said the ex-Governor had his turn with the members of the committee, one by one, in the morning. He favored an earlv convention, as did most of tne candidates, among whom were Joseph T. Fanning and A. M. Sweeney, for Supreme Court Clerk; timer E. Griffith, of Frankfort, and A. D. V oris, of Franklin, for Superintendent of Pnbho Instruction. Tho candidates for other offices were not present. Tn the meeting two factions presented Dlausiblo arguments both for an early and a late date, while a third was equally persistent in the belief that the best policy vould be to postpone definite action. But a majority of the candidates insisted that an early convention would be better in all respects for the party. A lively disenssion took place, during which some harsh language was used, those favoring the candidates' view showing a tendency to criticise the other committeemen for their opposition to the wishes of a majority of tne party. Several motions fixing the time the latter part of this mouth and about the middle of July were either voted down directly or tabled, and finally Aug. 23 was selected as the date. A motion to this e fleet was carried with only three dissenting votes. Another question that gave rise to much .talk was the place of holding the convention. The Allen county central coxnmittee sent down a delegation with a request that tho convention be held in Fort Wayne, and their following was by no means weak. Their cause was championed by George V. Long, of Fort Wayne, who claimed that his town was very anxious to secure the convention. Indianapolis, he and his followers said, has had her full share of State conventions. It was also claimed that Fort Wayne bad ample facilities to accommodate a large crowd. But the committeemen evidently thought otherwise. . On the first bailot two of them refused to vote and the result was declared unsatisfactory. A second ballot resulted in a tie six to six. On the third, seven votes were cast for Indianapolis and five for Fort Wayne, and tho work of the com mitto was at an end. There was a great deal of dissatisfaction among Democrats in the lobby of the Grand last night. The fact that the candidates had been almost unanimously in favor of an early convention prompted many to criticise the committee's action very sharply. The latter's advocates held out, how ever, that the committee had acted for the best interests of the Democratic party, and not of the few. ltepnbllcan County Convention. The Republican county executive com mittee met last night and decided to call the convention to nominate a county and legislative ticket for July 19 at Tomlinson Hall. The basis of apportionment of delegates is soon to bo arranged by the committee. THE COUNTY 1SILUM. Grand Jury Inspection and What Was Found at the InstitutionThe Insane Patients. So much having been said in the past week concerning tho condition of the connty asylum a Journal reporter made a visit to tho place yesterday on a tour of inspection. Superintendent Smith Williams was found with a party of men at tho door, who proved to be the grand jurors, making their monthly visit to the institution. Of course, everything was in spink-spank order, but it is fair to ' say that the appearance of things indicated a constant state of cleanliness. The reporter was given full privilege to visit every part of the building, and Dr. Otto Williams, son of the superintendent, was requested to act as his escort. It has been said that the insane ward of tho asylum is malodorous, unhealthy and unsafe in case of fire. It was certainly not malodorous yesterday. The floors had been thoroughly scrubbed, the windows were opon, and tho summer breezes were blowing in from offthe fields. Themalo insane inmates, tweaty-three in number, had just come in from their daily constitutional in the woods. - It was their day to batho, according to tho rules of tho institution, so the men were cleanly in appearance. - It is true, tho insane are kept in the attic, for there is at present, Superintend ent Williams says, no other quarters for them. The ten spare rooms that have been referred to as available for tho insane are, ho uays, really eight email apartments partitioned off on tho

floor space of the large room used as tho chapel. Two of these aro occupied by attendants, and the rest are required, it is said, lor the storage of linen and the underwear nged in the institution. The attiofioor is divided into apartments bv partitions which do not reach to the roof. Some of the rooms have windows, and some do not In case of fire, however, there would no doubt be an awful loss of life. An attendant, though, is constantly present, and with the facilities at hand all possible precaution seems to be taken. Marion county. Dr. Otto Williams aays. has already more than ber quota at the Central Hospital for the Insane, but when the Richmond and Evansvillo hospitals are. completed tho crowded condition of the contral institution "will bo greatly relieved, and the insane at the county asylum may then be removed to the latter hospital. This will give tho county asylum mu;h needed space. The number of paupers in that institution now is about 245, but in tho winter it runs up to 275. Bunks are then required in the halls to accommodate the inmates. The room from which the idiot, Lefever, jumped is on the top floor of the west wing. The window which he. somehow, managed to raise is hnng on weights, and moves easily on tho rollers. It has no lock, but was kept closed at night. Lefever's idiocy was of the most revolting form at times. He was always lifted into and out of tho large wooden cage which served him for a bed. The lid of the cage is so heavy that it is thonght unnecessary to bolt it on an occupant restrained as Lefever was. Bolts are now shown to have been necessary.

INFLUENCE OF THE SPIRITS

A Medium Entertains Believers and Others with What She Calls Fire Tests. The Skeptical Reporter Details What He Saw and Heard at a Seance Where a Great Feat Was Promised . It was a silver collection at the door and the reporter, putting down a ten-cent piece walked in and took a front seat. This was at Mansur Hall last evening where Miss Emma Nickersou, of Boston, a noted spiritualist, was to give "The Fire Test." Thero was a preponderance of fat ladies in the audience, as there always is at spiritualistic entertainments. This is mentioned merely as a fact; the reporter has no theory upon tho subject There was some information passed among the believers that thero were four or five skeptics present and an old lady who carried her nose quite high in the air sniffed very decidedly and remarked, with pointed emphasis, "Much good may it do 'em." A couple of men near the reporter indulged iu'an interchange of experiences regarding various remarkable things they had seen. "I knowed a man,,, said one, "who et tacks and glass like a boss would eat hay." Do you think it was natural!" inquired the other. ' , "Yes, sir; perfectly natural. He would take three or four carpet tacksand as many wire nails, and a small knife, and a . chunk of glass out of a tumbler." "lie couldn't hardly 'a been human," said tho listener, dubiously. "Well, ho claimed to be," continued the narrator. "He's dead now, but he was called the Human Ostrich, andhe filled the bill." Here another person came in with a wmspered statement that ne naa a frieud who "swallered a sword twcnty-tvo inches long, and made a good living by it," all of which led up to the fire test. The appetite of the andience was to be whetted by delay. Miss Nickerson is a buxom, rather good-looking lady of about thirty-five years, with black hair and an excellent pair of dark eyes. She was garbed in a plain gray dress, and was easy and graceful as she stood before the audience and gave them a lecture on 'Psychic culture." which preceded the fire test. "In psychio research," said she, "we find many names. We find snirit-healing practiced under so-called hypnotism, mindcure healing, faith-cure, and last, but not least, modern mediumship. I myself have passed through many phases of development, from simple table rappings and tippings to clairvoyance, clair-audi-ence, magnetic power, dead trance a trance at one time lasting throe days, when I was released from my body, released and saw friends and surroundings upon the earth side, and wandered through beautiful countries and saw wonderful scenery upon the spirit side, meeting and conversing with friends there as readily and easily as I can converse with friends here. m .A message I received from my old-time teacher. Colonel E. H. Thompson, of Michigan, a great Shakspearean student, with whom I studied for two years. He wasnot a spiritualist before ho passed to spirit land, but promised he would return if he could. This friend told me last year that 1 would have severe battles to fight in the war of opinions, but he said you will be sustained by the sentinels of our glorious republic. I do not fear the Waterloos for you now, for I eoo dimly flower-wreathed triumphs you will obtain amid the conflicts for right. I touch your brow and inscribe this motto go forth, brave heart, thou art not alone above the blue of heaven's dome, evangels praise and gladly help thee. Go teach the world the way to life." Miss Nickorson gave this as the Colonel's communication to her, and tho reporter, afraid of incoherency, 6ets it one in this fashion so that these important utterances may not get mixed. After some further lecture a bowl of water was brought, and preparations for the fire test begun. The lady bathed her hands carefully and dried them upon a towel. Then she rubied them together for some time, slapping them sharply. A coal-oil lamp was brought and the chimney removed. She passed her hands through the flame first very quickly, then more slowly, but keeping them constantly moving. A flame of natural gas was then turned on from a Welsbach burner, the chimney being taken away. The lady rolled her hands through this for a brief time, and then coming from the platform extended them to the reporter for inspection. They were very plump, and rather pretty hands, and though right from the fire were not scorched in the least. There was a smut from the coal-oil, but that was all. "She didn't linger long about the natural gas, did she," remarked a man to tho reporter. "They haven't had a chance to get acquainted with that kind of fuel in Boston." A skeptical lady ventured the whispered opinion that she had moro fire on her hands every time she made griddlecakes, and that it was all stuff and nonBense to make so much f nss about that as a fire test. A young cynio was of the opinion, this test having been under "spirit control," that it would be preferable to have a control that would keep one out of the fire, instead of takingono into it The gentleman who had brought in the bowl of water here addressed the audience. "I would like to make a statement," said this person. "It might be thought by some that there was some medication in the water. I procured the bowl myself, went down to the hydrant and brought the water hero and set it on the table. If anybody wants to examine the water he can do so after the audience is dismissed." The man who had been on terms of personal intimacy with the human ostrich was convinced that it was all square, but the friend of the sword-swallowr was disposed to think the water was hocussed in some way, and they continued to argue the matter as the audience filed out.
