For many years hasmade an annual journey here to takepart in, roceedings of the woman’s national convention. A KISS AS A QUESTION OF PRIVILEGE. After Miss Anthony sat down a scene followed, such as was never seen In any convention before, and could never be witnessed in any convention except a woman's convention. ‘Mrs. Morrison, a delicate-looking lady, belonging to the Indiana convention, roge in her seat, and as she advanced toward the platforin sald “I rise to a question of privitege—a privilege which I know you will all grant.” Ascending the platform She sald very earnestly: ‘ the presence of this flag,” referring to the Stars and Stripes, “whieh” every breeze loves to Kiss, in the presence of this picture of this great man (Garfield) who in the proudest moment of his life turned aside to kiss his mother and his wife, Soin the presence of these three women (Miss Willard’s mother, Miss Barton and Miss Anthony), Fepresenting motherhood, representing all that 18 angelic In woman, and representing, us, to kiss ‘Miss Anthony,” and suiting the action to the word Mrs. Morrison pounced upon Miss Anthony, and before that lady was aware had plumped a ki&s on her mouth which made a “smack” that could be heard all over the church. The action was gener- ally approved, evidently, for no one objected to the C on of privilege.” TRIBUTE TO AN AGED MOTHER. ‘Miss Willard then, rising, said she did not know that the good women of Illinois had brought her mother with them, but they had brought her here, and when the western delegation stepped off the cars last night her mother was there, and, she had been told, Was the brightest of all of them. Her mother, she sald, was entering her seventy-eighth ear. Then, taking her mother by.the hand, Miss illard said, with trembling lip atid broken voice, “ Here is the dear heart that never fafled me.” She then paid an eloquent tribute to the aged mother that stood beside her. The scene in the church was remarkable; not an eye was dry, and many ladies actually cried aloud at the ‘touching scene.“ When Miss Willard had concluded, the aged mother, volee trembling’ with age and emotion, said: “Ladies of the convention, I thank you for the honor you have conferred upon my dear daughter, and I thank you for the honors you have pald me and for inviting me to the platform.” she then kissed her daughter, an act which sent a fresh thrilL.of emotion through the convention. President Willard, however, having choked down the feeling in her own throat, made a great effo1 and put a Sudden period to these few minutes ol sentiment by saying, in a very prosy, business-like, unsentimental way: “We shall hear now the re- port of the executive committee.” ‘THE REPORT OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEB, referring to routine matters before the convention, was then read by the secretary. Miss Willard an- nounced that Mrs. Thompson, of Hillsboro’, Ohio, the leader in the crusade movement, would be present to-morrow. Mrs. Wiltenmyer, the former president of the National Union, an elderly lady in widow's weeds, and a white neck ruflle, being present, was invited to the platform, and made a brief speech, acknowl- ing the compliment. THE ANNUAL ADDRESS. Mrs. Sallie F. Chapin, of South Carolina, having been called to the chair, the president, Miss Wil- lard, read her annual address, a reading which oc- cupied an hour. Miss Willard’s address gave a most elaborate account. of the work done durin; ‘the year and made several important recommend tions, which will be considered during the conven- ion, At noon the convention took a recess for two hours. | During the recess the delegates were Tunched in the lecture room of the church. ‘The program for this afternoon’s session includes the hearing of the annual report of the secretary, the auditor's report, outline reports of superintend- ents of departments, and adjournment at 5.p.m. ‘THE PROGRAM FOR TO-NIGHT'S SESSION, Which will begin at 7:80 o'clock, is as follows:— Devotional exercises, conducted by Mra.

Waters, the well known commission merchants, at their warehouse situated on High street and the canal, not far from the station house. Two holes were drilled in the safe, one near the combination lock, and the other underthe handle. One of these, the one near the lock, was found this morning’ to be filled with powder not yet tynited, the robbers having undoubtedly been frightened off. The entrance was effected from the basement, the trap door leading to the floor above which the office is, had a. barrel of cement placed upon it, $0 that it could not be ralsed, necessitating the robbers to use their auger and chisel, with which, they cut a hole in the door large enough to admit" small man and pushed the barrel from it, and then entered the office, In which the safe was, without further trouble. A chisel was found on the floor near the safe which they left in their hurry.
