C., Aug. 28.—The Re- publican state convention met at Greensboro to day and endorsed the , candidacy of Thomas H. Hill of Hali- fax for chief justice of the supreme ,court and lett blank the positions |of associate justices. The conven- ‘tion adopted a resolution accepting the constitutional amendment of disfranchisement and binding the party not to contest the amend- ment’s constitutionality. The convention was composed en- tirely of white men. Contesting dele- gations of negroes fieaded by ex-con- gressman Cheatham and O’Heara, eastern North Carolina negro repub- licans, and others, were in every in- stance defeated. All the business of the convention was settled in caucus. Captain Charles Price of Salisbury, division counsel for the Southern railway, was chairman of the con- vention. He made a speech congrat- ulating the republican party on the elimination of the negro from poli- tics in North Carolina, saying that they were now released from “the body of death.” BSE EEE IE OE ESE SE 58 CSE SE OSE 5G.

CHINAMAN’S STRANGE GRIEF. riunity to se- before dusk the home George Gould, a # rning his name, Lavish with His Flowers and Carri- ages at Funeral of Man Who Had Befriended Him, The funeral of James A. McAllister, which took place at Cambr », Md. the other day, was the occasion of one of the most remarkable demonstra- tions of affection and friendship ever witnessed. Ten years ago Tong Jack, a China- man, opened his little in a building adjoining the home of Mr. MeAllister, and .for awhile much persecuted by neighborhood boys. Mr. McAllister stopped the boys’ mischievous practices, and in many ways took the laundrymaigs part. When Mr. McAllister was taken sick Tong Jack constantly sent flowers and delicacies to him. When he died the Chinaman’s grief was intense. Just before the funeral ceremony Tong Jack went to the house and of- fered prayers. Then he hired 30 car- riages for the funeral. Instead of riding himself he walked behind the hearse all the way to the grave, clad in white from head to foot. When the grave had been filled Tong Jack had it. covered with a great mass of flowers. washing shop was Protest by Photograph, Probably the most unique protest submitted te the officials of the post office department by a rejected appli- cant for a position in the postal service was received by Superintendent Machen, of the rural free delivery service, from: Goshen, Ind, An appli- cant for the position of letter carrier was recently rejected on account of a physical disability, stated to be a “maimed hand.” The protest received the other day was a cabinet size photo- graph of the man’s hand clutching a package of letters. The thumb is miss- ing at the second joint, and the hand is otherwise mutilated, but the pack- age of. letters is held in a good, firm grip. The physical disability will prob- ably be overlooked and the man ap- pointed, because of his photographic protest. Preumatic Tires in Favor in Paris. There is 8 movement among Parie- jane to patronize only pneumatic tired cabs, in order to force the companies to put gneumatics onallcabs. Cabmen with puc%gnatics are much more in de- mand than others, but are obliged to pay the company three francs a day more than for solid tires. The cost of a set of pneumatics—600 francs—is also a big item for the companies.

BrooRs, geologist in charge of the work of exploration which the United States geological survey is conduetin Alaska, that fully crossed , This party recently landed in southern Alaska, and ex- have succes pects to penetrate the region in the vicinity of Mount MeKinley as far as the Tanana river, whence they will proceed to Circle City and the Forty- Mile district, if the season is not too far advanced, or will descend the Yue kon river, of which the Tanana is the principal tributary on the south, if it is too late to go farther north. Much of the region through which they will pass is entirely unknown, and the Beluga river is supposed to be the greatest obstacle to progress. Mr, Brooks reports that with the aid of a hoat he safely swam his entire oute fit over this stream. He also reports that their first view of Mount McKin- ley was had from Mount Sushitna, a distance of 5 miles. Mount Me- Kinley is the highest mountain on the North American continent — 20,464 feet above sea level—and lies fn the midst. of an extremely rugged region which has never heen explored. FROM JAIL TO AFFLUENCE. Two Men Pardoned So as to Enable Them to Enjoy Fortunes Which Have Come to Them, In order that he may return to Germany and obtain a fortune of $50,000, to which he recently fell heir, and to which his right has been fully established, Richard Bassler has been pardoned by the New Jersey court of pardons. Bassler was sentenced to two years in state prison last fall, on a charge of burglary. The story of the crime, as he related it to the court of pardons, was that while in- toxicated he fell through a store window with no intention of stealing. Another prisoner sentenced for ten years in 1896 on a charge of breaking into a post office, was paroled in or- der that he might take up the mann- facture of a sewing machine invented by him while behind the bars. A company with an authorized capitali- zation of $1,000,000 has been char- tered to manufacture the machine. The pardoned prisoner {s said to have received $50,000 cash and a block of stock in the new company. Egyptian Sphinx Decaying, D. G.
