Platform Adopted by the Omaha Con- vention. “At the afternoon session of the Omaha republican convention at Lincoln yesterday considerable interest was manifested in the determined fight by several candidates for the Heutenant governor's chair. It was finally. captured by R. E. Moore, ex-mayor of Lincoin. The vote was: Moore, 571 1- Shumway, 364 1-2, and Corell, 24. J. A. Piper of McCook was nominated for secretary of state after a hard fight. Eugene Moore was renominated for auditor by acclamation, as was also Joseph Bart- ley for treasurer. H. C. Corbett, principal of the York pub- lic schools, was chosen for superintendent of public instruction, and A. S. Churchill of Omaha was nominated for attorney gen- eral. H. C. Russell of Schuyler was chosen from a dozen other candidates for superin- tendent of lands and buildings. At 8 o’clock the convention adjourned fter the following platform had been read and accepted: ‘The republicans of Nebraska, in conven- tion resented, deplore the disastrous re- sults of the “change” in tle policies of the national government, decreed by the peo- ple at a time when the mental balance of the country was temporarily disturbed by the exhilaration of a long course of peace, Progress snd material prosperity, and the clamor of demagogues and political quacks, and confidently appeal to the people of the State for a return to the conditions that existed prior to the elections of 1892. In view of the practical results of a year and a half of democratic rule, we reaffirm with renewed faith and fervor the platform of the national republican convention at Minneapolis. We demand the restoration of the American policy of protection and ¢cmmercial reciprocity with our sister re- publics of Mexico, Central and South Amer- ica and the governments of the West In- dies Islands. While we favor bimetallism and demand the use cf both gold and silver standard money, we insist that the parity of the value of the two metals be maintained, so that every dollar, paper or coin, issued by the government shall be as good as any other. We adhere to the doctrine that all rail- Way lines are subject to regulation and control by the state. ‘We are in favor of the enforcement of all laws, whether they affect the individual or the corporation, and we therefore demand the enforcement of the maximum rate bill passed by the last legislature. We are in favor of the enactment of laws by Congress that will provide for the super- vision, regulation and control of corpora- “ tions engaged in interstate commerce, with a view of preventing the fictitious capitali- zation and excessive bonding of such cor- porations. We recognize the rights of laborers to organize, using all honorable measures for the purpose of dignifying their condition, and placing them on.an equal footing with capital, to the end that they may both futly understand that they are necessary to the prosperity of the country. Arbitra- tion should take the place of strikes and lockouts for settling labor disputes. The extirpation of anarchy is essential to the self-preservation of the nation, and we therefore favor the pending bill in Con- gress for the exclusion of anarchists. —- - cee -—__ THREE UNHAPPY CHINESE. To Be Deported and Likely to Lose ‘Their Heads. There are three very unhappy Chinamen in Chicago. They are in custody of a United States marshal and are to be taken home under the Chinese exclusion act, and when they reach China their heads are to be chopped off. The imprisoned celestials are Mock Coon, Mcck Shon and Lum Bick Hop. They were arrested in Plattsburg, N. Y., wader the Chirese exclusion law and the deputy marshal is now on his way with tbem to Port Townsend, Wash., from which Place they will be shipped back to China. They were arrested at Plattsburg, N. Y., by United States Deputy Marshal Wood- Worth of Mechanicsville, charged with stealing into the United States over the Canadian border at Plattsburg. The China- men could establish no defense and Wood- worth was ordered to start with the ccles- tials at once for Port Townsend, Wash., that they might be deported under the Chinese exclusion act. The deputy mar- shal end his prisoners arrived in Chicago yesterday and the ofticer at once hastened to the Harrison street station and had the Chinamen locked up. Today he will leave for the west with his unhappy prisoners. The mea were members of a_ militia branch of the army and when Japanese cannon began to roar in the distance they decided that tne laundry bus’ness in the United States offered infinitely more charms to them than going to the front without @ bullet proof coat. Hence they stowed themselves away on a steamer which left before actual hostilities commence] and came to the iand of the free and the home of the “Melican man.” But their troubles began as soon as they crossed the border, for Uncle Sam’s eyes spied them out and they were ordered sent back. When this was explained to them their hearts smote them again, for the emperor keeps a long, keen snickersnee up his ca- pacious sleeve for deserters and Mock Coon, Mock Shon and Lum Bick Hop feel gure that there would be a passage of arms in which they would get the worst of it a8 soon as they returned to China. The prisoners are in a state of terror, as the penalty for deserting from the Chi- Rese army is death, and it is almost a cer- tainty that they will lose their heads on the'r trative soil. They talked to several Chicago Chinamen when here and begged —" to save them, but they cculd do noth- s- The democratic co jistrict of Florida met at Palatka yester- y to nominate a successor to Congress- man C. M. Cooper. The convention effected & temporary organization, and adjourned tilt today. There is no opposition to Cooper, and he will be renominated by acclamation. The democratic convention of the eighth congressional district at Aurora, Ill, ad- Journed to September 11 yesterday, without making a nomiration. On account of a mictake in the call, Kane and McHenry counties were not represented in the con- vention, kerce the adjournment. ‘The sixth district democratic congressional comyention at Dallas, Texas, did not suc- eed in breaking the deadlock, and last Night, at the end of the 2,204th ballot, ad- fourned to meet in Hillsboro on Tuesday, August 28. This will be the third town the convention has gone to, opening on August 1 at Corsicana, where it was in session four days; next in Dallas Tuesday.

At the time of the raid over twenty men were captured in the place. Some of them deliberately swore that there was no gambling, but evidence resulted in a conviction. Three of these witnesses have been charged with perjury, and warrants were served yesterday and the men arrested, Their names are Charles McKenzie, John Bundy and ‘Thomas West. A colored entertainment was in at Douglass Hall, Hillsdale, iast night, H. M. Perry, colored, of Washington, being the director. Officer Andersen asked for the license, which was not produced, and Perry was brought to the Anacostia police sta- tion, where he left $10 collateral for his ap- Pesrance in the Police Court this morning. The Ladies’ Aid fociety of the Anacostia Baptist Church gave a lawn social on the lawn of the residence of Mr. Charles R. Surr on Arthur street last night. It was largely attended and was in every way a success. ye Chinese lanterns lined the boundaries of the lawn and smaller ones were suspended from the trees. Mrs. Thom- as Miles was chairman of the committee in charge. The cake table was presided over by Mrs. Miles and Mrs. W. H. Peck; grapes, bananas and other fruits, together with confectionery, were sold by Miss Virgie King, Miss Mary Chase and Mrs. Charles R. Burr. Something new in ihe way of a root beer stand attracted considerable attention, and proved very successful. This beverage Was dispensed to the guests by Miss Effie Burr and Mr. L. Griffith, Mr. Thomas Miles and Mr. Charles R. Burr presided over the ice cream booth, while those who acted waitresses were Misses Edna Wil- liams, Lizzie Studs, Millie Peck and Emma Robey. Messrs. Oscar Raba and Howurd Griffith were assistants. Anacostia is badly in need of a system of strect naming. Many residents of the town are not aware on what street they live, and strangers are frequently puzzl over the changes. The new sewer on Fillmore street is, according to the Commissioners, to run to Pleasant street, yet this street is known to local people as Grant street. The sewer will be continued down Grant street to Valley street, but the Anacostia name for Valley street is Arthur street. It is said these changes are recent, but the citizens inquire whether the old names of Valley and Pleasant are really superseded by Grant and Arthur. There is to be better garbage service in Anacostia soon. As a result of The Star’s repeatedly printed articles on this subject, the correspondent was shown a letter yester- day at the health office to Mr. Bayley of the garbage service ordering him to es- tablish a tri-weekly service in Anacostia. Heretofore once a week has had to suffice the residents of the town. oe TAKOMA PARK. Among the recent entertainments at Hotel Takoma was a progressive gaine of “croki- nole,” when Mrs. Wm.

Miss Addie Jullien is away on a visit to relatives in Brooklyn, L. I. The many friends of Mr. George Howe of University Heights are much relieved to learn that his illness is not so serious as at first feared. He is still confined to his bed, however, although he has hopes to be out by Monday. ‘The young ladies of St. Clement's P. E. Mission have formed an association, to be known as “The Christian Graces,” and will hold their first meeting this week at the pans of Misses Fillmore, in West Brook- Miss Zelphia Lord has returned home, after a pleasant visit with Miss Daisy Nor- ton of Lansing street. Mr. and Mrs. James Gags are snugly en- sconced in thelr new home on 4th street, South Brookland.

A. Peffer of Kansas was the principal speaker, although “Gen- eral” Randall of industrial army fame edified the audience, also, at the evening meeting. Senator Peffer’s address was lengthy, and when he referred to the Sen- ate es having been run by the sugar trust for the past five months, he was accorded considerable applause. The deadlock in Hagerstown’s city coun- cil over Mayor M. L. Keedy’s appointments, which has existed since March, continues. At a meeting held Tuesday evening the mayor nominated Clifford P. Martin for city clerk and Alex. H. Hagner for city at- torney, both of which appointments were rejected. The mayor is a republican, while the board of councilmen is solidly demo- cratic. By thus rejecting the mayor's se- lections the present democratic incumbents hold on to their positions. Samuel Chrissinger, for many years a well-known coach and carriage builder of Hagerstown, was buried Tuesday. He was seventy-three years old. He leaves one son, Deputy United States Marshal Wm. Chrissinger of this city. The family of Jacob Horst of Hagers- town is sorely afflicted with typhoid fever. Seven of its members are down with the malady.

Gent of Common Air, but Has Hitherto Evaded Detection. —— From the New York Sun, LONDON, August 18.—The scientific sen- sation of the Yea? is the announcement made to the British Association at Oxford this week that a new gas has been discov- ered in the atmosphere. The great assem- bly of the world’s savants has felt as near an approach to excitement over the aston- ishing news as men of science ever allow themselves to reach, Lord Rayleigh and Professor Ramsay are the honored discover- ers of what they believe is the new element in chemistry. The qualities of this strange substance are peculiar. Although ft is said to form, chemically, the proportion of 1 per cent of common air, nobody suspected its existence until about three weeks ago. The experimenters found that nitrogen obtained from air has a different density from that of the same gas obtained from. other sources. Then they treated what they sup- Posed was the pure nitrogen from the at- mosphere with magnesium. The nitrogen was absorbed but the residue remained. This mysterious remainder was tested and Proved to be a dense and remarkably inert Gas twenty-one times heavier than hydro- gen and 50 per cent heavier than nitrogen. The spectrum was new, showing a single blue line much more intense than the cor- responding line in the nitrogen spectrum. The discoverers kept the result of the in- vestigation secret in order to fulfill the con- ditions of the prize offered through the Smithsonian Institution for the most im- Portant scientific discovery. They have suc- ceeded thus far in accumulating only a quarter of a pint of the new gas. Professor Dewar, the great expert in all atmospheric affairs, is plainly skeptical about the identity of the new gas. He has found, when liquefying the air, that the pro- duct is always clouded by a white deposit, which he supopsed was solid carbonic acid and other impurities. It may be, he says, that this is the solid form of the new gas, but it forms far less than 1 per cent. The substance must have exactly the same boil- ing point as either oxygen or nitrogen, otherwise, he would have been sure to de- tect it in his experiments in solidifying air. The general belief is, however, that the new gas is really new, or an allotropic form of nitrogen, which does not exist in ap- preclable quantities in ordinary atmosphere, but which was produced by the discoverer’s experiments, just as ozone is produced by the action of electricity on oxygen. Other bits of news of popular interest in the various departments of the scientific world fe been announced at the meetings of the association. It has long been known that the earth’s axis varies in an irregular Way as regards its relation to fixed objects in space, but Prof. Forster announces, as the result of careful observations by agents of the International Geodetic Union, that the esrth’s axis js a bit loose as regards the globe itself. The effect is that the rerth pele wabl slightly. The variation in position ts ngf gyer fifty feet, however, So there is no danger that any explorers who have gone ip the Arctic regions with- out Prof. Forstey’g warning will get hurt by going too negr. ,. Some queer digcoyeries by the Prince of Monaco during jeep-sea dredging in the Atlantic and Mejiterranean in the present summer were make,known. He found that at great depths, where it was supposed nothing could liye, /Jife is abundant. Many black ground sharke of a species supposed to be extremely rare were caught at a depth of a mile, and a haif. Some fishes not identified wene found at a depth of more than two miles, Several strange discoveries regarding pre- historic man were announced. The remains recently found jn Switzerland show the existence in the.neolithic age, of a race of pygmies in Europe. Herr Mascha has un- éarthed, within @ few days in Moravia, many remains of mammoths, and with them the skeletons of a whole human family, almost gigantic in size. The dis- covery seems to settle the disputed point Whether man was co-existent with the mammoth. An explorer in Guatemala reported the discovery, in an ancient mound in that country, of many small jars, each contain- ing the remains of a little finger from the human hand. It is supposed to have been the custom of mourners tn some prehistoric race to make this sacrifice. ————_-o-_____ Long Drift of a Bottle. In pursuance of its systematic efforts to accurately define the great ocean currents, the naval hydrographic office has received ‘an ocean current report that was thrown overboard from the British steamship Maine, Capt. Bocquet, October 12, 1891, in north latitude 48-40, west longitude 21-34— Position on the transatlantic steamer routes about 450 miles southwest from the coast of Ireland. It was found by Robert Gray off Mangrove Cove, on the eastern side of Great Inagua Island, Bahama, May 8, 1894. In this interval of thirty-one months the bottle containing this report most likely skirted the coasts of Europe and Africa, and then crossed the Atlantic west in_the equatorial current, drifting about 5,000 miles, AUCTION SALES.
