HOTEL LOBBY GLEANINGS

MCMItKRS OF Tili: DKMOCIIATIC COM MITTEE ARRIVING. Several Men .Mentioned for Chairman ship of State Con vention Visitors at the Hotels. Members of the Democratic state committee began to arrive yesterday evening for the meeting of the committee which will be held to-day, beginning at 11 o'clock. Chairman O'Brien is here from Lawrenceburg, and Lincoln Dixon carne in from North Vernon. He represents the Fourth district. It is expected that there will be some "argument" in the committee to-day over the question of a chairman for the state convention. While the committee will not attempt to say who shall be chairman of the convention It may make a recommendation to the Democrats of the State. The friends of John W. Kern want to see him made chairman and it Is said that Mr. Kern will not be averse to accepting the place. However, it is pointed out that there Is a majority of anti-Kern men on the committee. There has been talk 0 S. E. Morss, Hugh Dougherty, Major Menztes and Representative R. W. Miers. It is said that the Democratic members of Congress from Indiana wrote letters to their constituents requesting that they do what they could to make Miers chairman. It is claimed, however, that the Miers sentiment Is not strong enough to give him the chairmanship. CONVENTION AT NASHVILLE. The Town with No Railroads Will Entertain Democratic Convention. Nashville, the county seat of Brown county, is preparing for a gala day on June 5, the day following the Democratic state convention. The Democrats have the event in charge. It is to be the Democratic congressional convention of the Fourth district, and Lincoln Dixon, committeeman from the. Fourth district, who is at the Grand Hotel, will have the honor of presiding. There are no railroads 'leading tc Nashville, and the click of the telegraph key is not heard in Brown county. To get to the Nashville convention the delegates will have to ride overland for a distance of twenty miles. This will be the first congressional convention ever held in Brown county, and the event was allowed to go there as a sort of compliment to the Democrats of the county. A rather peculiar thing is mentioned in connection with the holding of the convention at Nashville. At the time this place was selected It was understood that there would be no contest over the nomination and that Representative Griffith would have no opposition. Had there been an Indication of a contest it is probable that Nashville would not have got the convention, as It would have been inconvenient for candidates to have taken their friends there on account of lack of railroad facilities. Since Nashville has been selected, however. Brown county has sprung a candidate. It is not thought, however, that there will be formidable opposition to Mr. Griffith. CYIU'S E. DAVIS IN TOWN. He "Was au Aggressive Opponent of Representative Jllers. Cyrus E. Davis, of Bloomfleld, a member of the last Indiana House of Representatives and an aggressive opponent of R. W. Miers for the congressional nomination in the Second district, is at the Grand Hotel. Mr. Davis came to the city wlh his friend, G. II. Hendren, member of the Democratic committee from the Second district. It was announced at the Grand Hotel last night that Mr. Davis came to Indianapolis on "private business" and would not remain for the Democratic committee meeting today. Mr. Davis, with his usual modesty, declined to discuss politics In the Second district. He was one of the aggressive leader in the House of Representatives, but will not be a member of that body next winter. It is said, however, that he can have the nomination for joint senator from Monroe, Brown and Greene counties if he desires it. Up to this time there has been no definite announcement of what Mr. Davis will do in regard to accepting this nomination. An Optimistic Democrat. Occasionally a Democrat with unusually optimistic views comes to the city. One came yesterday in the person of V.. L. Sllnkard, of Bloomfleld, who Is at the Grand Hotel. Mr. Sllnkard was formerly prosecutor for Greene and Sullivan counties. He thinks there is no doubt of Miers's reelection in the Second district. "There may be some little dissatisfaction in Greene county because of Mr. Davis's defeat." he said, "but It will not last, and Mr. Davis's friends will all be for Miers." Mr. Sllnkard says the people of Bloomfleld are enthusiastic over the prospects of striking a substantial flow of oil. Chairman Goodrich In Town. Chairman James P. Goodrich, of the Republican state committee, arrived in town yesterday from Winchester, and will be here until Saturday. The work at Republican committee headquarters is progressing in the line of routine, but will not begin to assume pretentious proportions until after the Democracy has nominated its ticket.

S. D., May 21.-Pioneer days are recalled in Charles. Mix and Hutchinson counties by a band of bank robbers who have been operating for the past week. Banks at Scotland. Ethan and several other points have been blown open and robbed in quick succession. At Ethan the robbers operated after the style of the James boy., with a guard mounted at the front door and with Inhabitants looking on from .1 safe distance, called out by the noise made In blowing open the vault. At Harrison, in making their escape, the robbers boldly drove away with teams taken from farmers cn the public road. The bandits coolly drove through Wagner in broad daylight, and, though known to be the bank robbers, were not molested. The entire region of their depredations Is terror-stricken. A pose left Avon to-day in chase of them. Give 1-500 to 21cKlnley Fnnd. CLEVELAND. O.. May 21.-A telegram has been received at the headquarters of the McKinley memorial committee from

MAY FIGHT ON JULY 4. Jeffries am! Fitislnitnoiis Agree to Meet In San l-'rniielaeo. SAN FRANCISCO. May 21. James J. Jeffries, champion heavyweight pugilist of the world, and Robert Fitzsimmons met this afternoon and came to an agreement to fight for the world's championship. Fitzsimmons Insisted that he would not fight unless permitted to wear surgical bandages for the protection of his hands, and after s-ome parley on this point, Jeffries receded from the position he has assumed recently in objection to the use of bandages. The articles of agreement will, to all practical purposes be Identical with the articles signed in New York some months ago. After the two men had announced their satisfaction with the articles, it was mutually agreed that the documents would be signed on Friday afternoon. Seven club3 submitted bids for the fight, and after a brief discussion, Fitzsimmons told Jeffries that he would leave the matter of selection of a club to him, with the result that Jeffries, after some deliberation expressed the opinion that the bid of the San Francisco Club, offering 70 per cent, of the gross receipts was the best. Fitzsimmons accepted the suggestion and it was agreed that the contest would be held under the auspices of the club mentioned. The date of the contest will be decided on later, but It is generally believed that July 4 will be the day determined on. Eddie Creany, a local man, will be asked to referee the contest and doubtless will accept. Jeffries will train at Harbin Springs and Fitzsimmons at Skaggs Springs. Jeffries and Fitzsimmons each posted a forfeit of $2.500. The winner is to get 60 per cent, and the loser 40 per cent, of the fighters' share of the receipts. DnI HawklnM Knocked Out. SEATTLE, Wash.. May 21. Perry Quenan knocked Dal Hawkins out in the ninth round to-night. PANIC IS GENERAL. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) companied by a succession of short but decisive reports like distant cannonading, seemingly from far out at sea. The sounds were unlike thunder, having no reverberating roll, and were accompanied by decided tremors, while the sky in the southeast was suffused with a glow. The reports came at intervals of perhaps three minutes, and persons who remember the earthquake at Charleston say the noises' were very similar to the subterranean noises accompanying that occurrence. The sound traveled from the south to southeast. The night was perfectly clear. A number of citizens gathered on the seawall and timed the intervals between the reports. JACKSONVILLE. Fla., May 21. The weather bureau says no earthquake shocks were recorded by the Instruments last night. TAMPA, Fla., May 21. There were no Indications of a seismic disturbance here last night. The sunset was affected evidently by volcanic dust. Volcanic Dnst nt Charleston. CHARLESTON, S. C. May 21. The local forecast official reported to-day that he observed volcanic dust In the air last night. A red sunset was caused by tho particles. Gun Work on Shipboard. New Y'ork Herald. The target practice of the North Atlantic squadron during the inspection on the southern drill grounds shows a notable improvement over the work of the same vessels last summer. It is encouraging to discover this fresh grip on realities, to mark this new start and to find the ships racing in a wholesome rivalry for the old goals of battery' efficiency. For several years the service figure of merit has been lower than the standard of progressive superiority to which we have been accustomed, though it is high compared with foreign effort, when the special marksmanship of one British ship, and really of one British gun captain. Is excluded. This uncomfortable retrogression engendered by the Spanish war, to the supineness that usually follows such expenditures of energy and to the unremitting labor Imposed by the undermanned condition of the fleet. Luckily It is only temporary. The American tradition is to shoot fast and sure and to hold, as In the old valarous days, the gun as the life of the ship. All else is contributory; that Is vital. Hence the department, and the commanding officers are, we may be sure, sparing no efforts to get the best out of the supreme sea weapon. But are inducements enough offered? The finest marksmen should be the highest paid members of the crew, and their chances of advancement the most secure. Given this and hard work, the superiority will return, and. better still, the all-around efficiency be surpassed, for presages of this appear in the reported success of the Kearsarge on this coast and of the Wisconsin In the Pacific. Spiritualist Reunion. New Y'ork Evening Tost. Fifty years ago the first association of spiritualists was formed, and this week it is having its jubilee celebration in Philadelphia. This Is about the only fifty-year-old association in the country which is able to marshal all Its charter members to a fifty-year anniversary. Quite a number of the charter members were present in the flesh, and the rest were there spiritualistically, which is quite as satisfactory, according to trustworthy accounts. One of the members who was thus present remarked through a medium that it was a grand celebration, nnd that he wished he could occupy a front pew. But. of course, he did not really need any pew. Spiritualism has done a great deal for the world, though the world does not as yet fully realize its obligation. President Barrett presented a bill of particulars. Spiritualism brought to Alexander of Russia the message from spirit land which caused him to liberate the serfs; It also brought a similar message to Abraham Lincoln, after which he proclaimed emancipation for the slaves. Spiritualism has proved the truth of the gospels, and it is to give to the world the "civilization of the soul," whatever that is. One of the features of the first day's session was a roll call of the charter members who were present not occupying seats. They all answered up through mediums in a sprightly and entertaining manner. Losses by Fire. GREENVILLE. Pa., May 21. Memorial Hall of Thiel College, this place, was destroyed by fire at 3 o'clock this morning, entailing a loss of $23.0. The boys dormitory is about fifty feet south of Memorial Hall, and they were routed out in their night clothes. No one was hurt. The fire was of incendiary origin. MONTREAL, May 21. The sanatorium for consumptive at St. Agathe des Montes was burned last nierht. There were seventeen patients in the place. Mrs. Malvina L. Goddard, who was there to take care of her daughter, Mrs. Bruce Fayne, of Granby, Quebec, was burned to death. NEW YORK. May 21. The Bradbury piano factory in Brooklyn was destroyed by fire late last night. The building was owned and the business conducted bv Freborn G. Smith. It Is estimated that "the loss will reach $500.000. Littleness of Humanity. Springfield Republican. The psychological effect of such happenings as that at Martinique is really impressive. In the presence of the working of the earth's crust In that diabolical style, everything else looks small. Even the mighty human race, with its ambitions and quarrels, which take up so large an amount of one's attention, tends to shrink to microscopic dimensions. The mind seems instinctively to see that Just as there was an earth here before the race came upon it. so there could easily be an earth here ngain without a single human being existing on its surface. The questions of a spring bonnet or a summer suit, and the issues of "civilization" generally can't stand the comparison with much dignity. ' Proud man simply has to go back somewhere and sit down. Next Fad. New York Telegram. Ping-pong is apparently doomed. Some one has now discovered that blowing soap bubbles is a great health exercise and experiments are being made to prove the elficacy of shelling green peas as a muscle builder. E. W. GROVE. This name must appear on every box of the genuine Laxative Bromo-Qulnlne Tablets, the celebrated Cold and Grip Cure. Sc.

LAFAYETTE, Ind., May 21.-Purdue and Indiana played their postponed game this afternoon, despite the threatening storm, in the presence of 1,200 lusty shouters. Ide was put in the box for the locals, and pitched a fairly good game. Rivalry between the two teams has been intense, and considerable nervousness characterized the first Inning. At the outset it looked bad for the locals, when, on two hits and two errors, the visitors scored three. But Indiana went to pieces temporarily, and at the end of the second half Purdue had a lead which allowed it In' the third and fourth Innings to attempt to hurry the game by striking out or recklessly running bases In order to get in five Innings. The rest of the game was a good contest. In which the odds were slight. Gaetz, playing Purdue's center, made the star play of the day. It was a running leap for a hard hit In deep field, which he reached with his left hand and held it through the somersault which its moentum gave him. The bleachers went wild over the performance. Hitting was light on both sides, bases on balls six off Ide and seven off Boyle yielding scores in several Innings.

The country Is salubrious, the dittos are not in opposition, but are waiting developments, which will be friendly. A show of force may be necessary to convince the sulky chiefs that their best interests He in peace, and more troops will be sent in for that purpose, but no aggressive steps will be taken. Gen. Chaffee is a man who can be relied upon to do the right thing at all times, and the American people may rest secure In the situation; there will be no more fighting unless it is absolutely forced upon our troops by the Moros. Friendly Inquiry. Ohio State Journal. The pastor called at a Columbus home the other day. where little Freddie, a bright youngster, is a great pet. Freddie had previously heard his mother say that the pastor was very successful In saving souls. During a pause In the conversation Freddie, who was sitting on the pastor's knee, asked: "Do you save souls?" "Yes, Freddie," replied the man of the cloth. "Wil you tell me." went on Freddie, seriously, "how many souls you got saved up?"
