SRB ———-+e+_____ DISTRICT DEMOCRATS. How It is Believed Harmony Can Alone Be Secured. A democrat prominent in national and local political circles, and one who has not been iden- tified with eithgr of the bodies claiming to be the central democratic committee of the Dis- trict, was asked by a Stan reporter bis views respecting the present of things in the local democratic ranks. Whil not consenting to the publication of his name, he said: In common with ali democrats who have the good of the party at heart I very much regret the existing condition of things, but with my knowledge of the two men claiming each to be | chairman of the committee 1 have very little hope of a restoration of harmony without a 01 aplete change of the situation.” “How cau this be brought about? the reporter. “Well,” was thereply,““it is evident to methat a to the other, and the only way ont of the mud- dle that suggests itself to me is this: Let both partion een identified wit chairman of the committee. — Th let every one claiming to be a member of the committee whose name was not on the roll, as announced in the late conven- tion, resign all claim to membership on the ominittee: let whatever vacancies may then be found to exist be filled by those members whose places on the committee are unquestioned, and then let the committee, as constituted in this way, elect as chairman the gentleman agreed upon. This will solve the difficulty, and it can be solved in no other way. “But,” asked the reporter, “will any member of the committee be agreed ‘apon by the others for chairman?” “‘No,” was the answer, “and I don't contem- plate sucha thing. My contemplation is that ome outsider should be agreed upon. This would, of course, involve the resignation from the committee of the legislative district to which the person agreed upon belonged and the election of the latter. But I assume that if harmony is really desired there will be no trouble on that point. “You see,” the gentleman continued, “the part to be played by the central committee in this eam- of minor importance. The important ing is to have a central committee whose legal constitution will not be called in question four years hence, when the time comes to calf the local convention to choose dele- gates to the next national democratic conven- tion. If we do not succeed in getting a recog- nized central committee we hall have two local conventions and two sets of delegates to the next national convention, involving the district in another contest with the inevitable loss of standing and influence on the of the District and its representatives. If such # thing should happen, the best democrats of the District would bave nothing further to do with ite polities, and the President, whoever he might be, would be again annoyed by con- ther faction for flicting representations, which could only result | in his ignoring all parties, and make hisDistrict nominations to aait himself. “Has the central committee the right to fill vacancies?” the reporter asked, “Of course,"” was the reply; “and, by the way, neither Mr. McKenna of the fourth district nor Mr. Wells of the eighteenth district is legall member of the committee. Neither was named in the convention, and on the adjournment of the convention the functions of the delegates ceased, and they had no more right to choose “Well, what about the members of ‘the Ma ogue committee who were chosen to fill the leged vacancies occasioned by the non-attend- ance of the Wellerite: Why, they are not members of the commit- tee, either. comtmittes makes no provision for such cases.” “Then,” said the reporter, “according to ur view the only legal members of the co mittee are the twenty men who were named in the convention?” Exactly, and there can be no harmony and no ‘lovefeast’ until this fact is recognized as a starting point for whatever negotiations may be had.” “But suppose,” suggested the reporter, “that no agreement, ‘such as you propose, can be ar- rived at, what then? “Why, the on for all the good democrats of the District to ignore both of the so-called central committees, form a voluntary organization for the cam- paign and put themselves in communication with the national executive and campaign com- mittees, and go to work for the com- mon = cause. if the central commit tee fight not soon settled and such an organization as I suggest is not | tormed there will be no effective work done the District democrats, their contributions iil not be forthcoming and they will have no place in the estimation of the incoming admin- istration except a place of ridicule and impo- tence.” THE MANOGUE MEETING LAST NIGHT. At the meeting of the Manogue central demo- cratic committee last night Mr. Ma- nogue presided and Messrs. Mobler and Reagan were present, although they did newer when the roll of the committee his place on the finance committee be filled, for as long as the contention between the Manogue and Weller factions continued he would affiliate with neither. invitation to give his (Mobler’s) proxy to some Cleveland democrat who would affiliate with the Manogue committee. Mr. Manogue, in a speech on the polit situation, pointed out to the committee the necessity of action, stating that instead of fight- ing Mr. Weller they should turn their attention ‘and fight AS to the local controversy, he remarked that his je were right when the committee organ- and they were still right.

When hay- ing at Graniza had our passports vised and paid for a third time, we changed cars (none being allowed to cross the frontier), and within a mile or two came to Szczakowa, where the quaran- tine was to be enforced. With a concerned and austere look the Austrian officials first locked us all in the special cars in which we had come from Warsaw and expelied and excluded all others from the station to prevent the possi- bility of their contamination; and thus we were kept for an hour or two, our trunks and hand baggage being in the meanwhile taken iuto a room by itself, Being Americans we took the liberty of looking from our prison ears and laughing and chatting ina way that betokened anything but a cholera-stricken com- ny.

Sullivan, the pugilist, has written a book. In this literary effort Sullivan devotes a chapter to his method of training. He has ideas of bis own about training and he outlines them as follows: “To begin with I sleep ine good, airy, well- oom. easons are that better alone and will not be obliged to inhale ree upon some good man who has not | | which + | of any ») mee. | dose I take three-quarters of a glass of the representative from that | *) The constitution of the central | | y thing then to be done w'll be the breath of the other ma: T begi: condition myself by taking a dose of physic, which I prepare myself, and hich consists of about fifty cents’ worth each of | zinnia, salts, toanna and black stick licorice.

I | then exercise with light dumb bells a few min- fey aton my clothes, go and loiter on the road for an hour or read the morning papers. Any licht exercise I take before nreakfant is simply for the purpose of getting up an ap- petite. Anything like a sweat at this time would be entirely out of place. At So'elock I | have my breakfast, which consists of mutton chops or « small piece of «teak, stale bread and | twosmall cups of tea, The meat must be very lean. THE SWEATER. “After breakfast I sit around until about 10 o'clock, and then put on my sweater, which | Weighs from two and a half to three pounds, anda belt long enough to go around me and | seven inches wide. This I wear outside of my sweater, as it helps to take the fat off the stomach. Having dressed myself, I go on « long walk for the day, consisting’ of six or {seven miles out and the same number back, | the distance to be covered as quickly a8 possi- | Die, and the last mile or two should be made ou'a dead run in. Having returned to my | training quarters, I lie down on a conch, and | my trai ith heavy blankets and jlogeen my shoes. There I remain for « short time letting the perspiration come out, when I Tise, undress myself. and let my trainers rub me thorough back on the couch again, when a second course of perspiration comes out. All this time I am covered with Diankets. When I rise a second time my ners rub me thoroughly dry again, and this operation is repeated two or three times, or | until Icease to perspire. I then go to a shower | bath that I have arranged for me. If Iam near the ocean or any other «alt water, I use | that in my shower; if not, I put sea salt into the water I use, making it equally good. Istand | under this shower off and on’ for the space of ten or fifteen minutes, when I am rubbed dry with towels. I then lie on an oak plank that I | bave arranged for the purpose and am given a good hand rubbing, after which I dress in light | material, but warmly enough not to take cold. Between and 2o'elock I have my dinner, | which consists of roust mutton or roast beet very well done, stale bread and sometimes Bass’ ale. I do not jimit myself as to the quantity of meat, but I eat no vegetables except tender | celery, asparagus and once in a while one or two | potatoes, A man can eat plenty Sometimes I eat three or four bun: It is good for wind and good | “Dinner being over, I go out and walk around | or read the papers or a book.

If Iam near sult water I prefer | salt water bathing, but if not, I bathe in fresh water. This little swim doex not occupy more than ten minutes.
