The question was over the Indorsement ot ,<:*-venson for Vice President by the Populists—purely a sentimental one—but it ; -coked a storm in that convention v h practically blocked all business from 11 o’clock last night un to the time a ri was taken at 5 o’c lock this morn ing. Thf excitement developed by the dispute over the apportionment of state ’officers among the three parties was hightened t*> the springing of the vice presidential question. and it reached the climax at 4 o'* ock this morning, when M. F. Har j non. one of the leading Populists of Hi- West, warned the convention that it wow id wreck the party, if they indorsed the withdrawal of Tovvne from the ticket and conceded the other demands. He taid T-une’s withdrawal would lose North Da k- a Houth Dakota and Kansas and the funionists would have to light for their liw s in Nebraska. J H Edminston, chairman of the Pop vlw- State Central Committee and vice chairman of the National Commit ee, was e i more radical. He declared if the Pop niists lid not stand their ground, hold Voir place on the national ticket, and in sist on the bulk of the state offices, they’ c • 1 1 never h and another national con vention. Just at a time when the sentiment seem • ■■ ; strong ter breaking away from the a liance, a motion to take a recess pre vailed.

Yesterday furnish ed i m\v illustrations of the weakness or t'v present methods. A majority ot <he coir murders have agreed that it was im pcimve to attack the native city beyon-i th- foreign settlements and to destroy the artllk-ry therein which menaced the set ! dements. The attack was tixed four days ago. but was postponed because the Russian commander considered his m* n unfit for the duty af er their recent work. It was again fixed for yesterday morn ing. but was postponed because creditable reports were in circulation ihat 10.000 reg ulars frem the northwest had reinfore and the Chines-*. In the meantime the- Chinese bad removed two big guns on the fort near by to the native city and had plantel four in the op?n near ihe east arsenal, two miles away. Th se shelled the city 4,0 r four hours, tending in more than 10) shells. They got the rang of the public buildings and of the club house used as h spirals, and dropped shells all about them. Fortunate’y most of the shells were deftcO\e and failed to burst and the others had a small radius of c tfe tiveness. In the absence of a concerted plan the Russians sent a few companies of Cos sacks. with two field guns, and the Jap anese a battery of three-pounders and two companies of infantry, supporting the English twelve-pounder from the 11. M. ts. Terrible to silence them. The Terrible’s gun failed to get an effective position and the Russians had one gun dismounted and four men killed early in the engagement. The Japanese were confident thai they si lenced the guns* in the open, but it a,- parej to the onlookers that the.-o gun? tired the last shots as the Japanese were retiring. The Russians lost heavily and the Jav anese had one killed and twelve wjun led Tiie Cninesc threw a few ehells into tire c ity this morning to show that they were still alive. A British officer described the sDuation as choas. He said: "We have wasted many hour? in polite ness; it is time we did something.” There is no disagreement among the commanders, hut, in the absence of e definite head several of them are dis posed to follow their mvn methods and they simply abstain from operations con trary to these methods. The foreign i>op ulation is greatly aroused concerning this apparent apathy. While the city is being bombarded they are likely to suffer heavi ly and they cannot understand the appar ent negligence of the governments to furnish relief, and why reinforcements are not coming on faster; the Americans are particularly dissatisfied because, though they have one of the smallest rep resentations. their interests are second to none. One experienced officer said: “It is impossible to realize at home that there has been more real war here than in Cube or the Philippines.” The Germans have occupied and raised their flag over the imperial university at Tien Tsin.

DISAPPROVED OP’ WORLD’S ALLEG ED ASSASSINATION PROJECT. Snob Thing*. Ihe Senator Declared, Vre ( aleulnted to Stir Ip Sueh t rank* a* Gnitenn—Poraker Sa>* Hi* Party Will Win—Work Enough in \ lew for Rotli—Poliee Protec tion About the ( hinqpe Legation. Washington. July 12.—Senator Foraker has been in town for a few days closing up his private offairs here preparatory to returning home to engage in the Ohio campaign. When interrogated concerning the alleged conspiracy to assassinate President McKinley, Senator Foraker de nounced the publication of such a story as “criminal.” He said he knew’ nothing of the rumor beyond what h** had seen stated in the lepers, and he deprecated publicity being given to such incendiary rumors. He aid he was in favor of the greatest freedom of expression by the press of the country’, but he thought editors of great newspa pers should exercise great discretion in publishing statements which furnished oriminal and murderous suggestions to fanatics. The Senator did not hesitate to s*ay that there are cranks in this coun try’ who, like Guiteau, may fancy that they’ are inspired to commit a crime sim ilar to that of the lamented Garfield’s as sassination. Commenting upon the political situation. Senator Foraker said: “It Is too early in the campaign to indulge in predictions to the result. Of course,” said he. “I feel confident that the ticket we nominated at Philadelphia will sweep the country next November, and my faith has not been shaken by anything that has occurred sinee. not even the action of the Kansas City convention. There* i plenty of work ahead for both parties, and 1 am going home to do my share towards promoting Republican success.” West n* the Da ttleground. Gold Democrats in this vicinity who are worth quoting decline to make public, their respective views concerning the probable result of the Kansas. City con vention. One of the most astue and re liable members of the Democratic party, in discussing the political outlook, remark ed to-day ihat in his opinion Democracy has selected the West and ihe Middle West as the battle ground for the coming campaign. “We are assured of a solid South for Bryan and Stevenson, and our leaders have decided to abandon all hope of capturing any of the Eastern states and will confine their fiercest fighting to those states in the West w’hich forced the adoption of the 16 to 1 plank in the Kan sas City platform. “It is too early,’ he continued, “for any conservative man to venture to forecast the result of the next election. It is nat ural that the leaders of both parties should be buoyant and enthusiastic in preparing the line of battle. As the campaign progresses, conditions may arise to change public sentiment to such an event as to enable Bryan and Steven son to roll up an unexpected majority in the electoral college, in spite of the ob jectionable character of the free silver declaration, which Eastern Democrats claim is fatal to the ticket. There does not appear to be any evidence of pro nounced enthusiasm over McKinley, and the opponents of Gov. Roosevelt are at tacking him with the most vital of politi cal weapons—ridicule—all along the line. So far as I ran see, it looks as though we are to have a repetition of the Tilden ar.d Hayes campaign, where the result may’ hinge on one or two states. This time the doubtful states will probably be found in the western circuit.” Legation Im Guarded. Poliee projection has been thrown around the Chinese legation in this city in consequence of a somewhat insignifi cant incident which occurred here several days ago. It was not done at the re quest or suggestion of the Chinese minis ter or any one connected with the lega tion. It was done as a precautionary measure because of the prevailing im pression that the members of the lega tion were losing their popularity here be cause of the reported depredations per petraied upon American citizens iu China with the saru;tion of the Empress Dowa ger. The incident which brought the subject to the attention of the police authorities occurred on one of the principal streets of the capital city a few days ago. Mr. Shen Tung, the first secretary of the lega tion, was out on business for the lega tion. He speaks English more fluently than any member of the legation, and ts exceedingly popular in social and business circles because of his uniform gallantry and a general disposition to adopt Ameri can manners and customs In almost everything he does, except as for the mat ter of dress. He is required to conform to the regulation a'tire of his country, but he conceals h s queue as far as po6- sble by tucking it down his back under his blue silk pomomi. There is nn eccentric musician in 'thi* city, well known In social and musical circles, who Is addicted to the excessive use of stimulants. Under certain pressure the musician will hold up his acquaint ai< es on the streets and profess the most affectionate personal regard for them. Under these conditions he encountered Mr Chen Tung, with whom he has a speak ing acquaintance, and proceeded to dis cuss music and high art In the Flowery Kingdom. Mr. Tung, appreciating the condition of the musician, and at the same time being anxious to perform the official mission on which hg was bound, endeavored to evade his enthusiastic and eccentric acquaint ance. The latter, a typical Southerner with n b.aok wool hat. long black hair and drooping black moustache, clung affec tionately to the young Chinese attache. Passers-by who did not fully compre hend the situation imagined that the rep resentative of the Chinese government was being publicly assaulted. A crowd quickly gathered, and explanations were made which enabled Mr. Chen Tung to extricate himself fiom the affectionate embraces of his musical friend and pro ceed on his way to the state department. The incident created a little excitement for the moment, and in the talking of It, It was probably exaggerated. In any event there ts a growing feeling of resentment against the Chinese in this country which is not confined to Washington, and the police authorities, after due deliberation, concluded that it would not be unwise to keep an officer constantly on duty in the Immediate vicinity of the Chinese tion.

We are refunding our bonded debt, bearing 3 and *1 and 5 per cent, interest at 2 per cent., a lower rate than that of any other country and already more thin three hundred millions havq been so funded with a gain to the government of many millions of dollars. Instead of 16 to 1 for which our opponent* contended four years ago, leg islation has been enacted which, while utilizing all forms of our money, secures one fixed value for every dollar and that the best known to the civilized world.

The party simply ranged themselves about the wide veranda, which commands a magnifi cent view of Long Island sound, and Sen ator Wolcott, practically without prelim inaries of any kind, delivered a short ad dress. To this th Governor responded briefly, and then luncheon was served An hour was spent In general (Oinnsatkn on the cool pDrchfs, and then the party returned to Oyster Bay, where a special train was waiting to convey them back to New York.

After accepting the nomination, he said: "This is very much more than . mer* party contest.

Continued from First Page. ncgic and Mi Clews both think young men are better without n college educa tion if hr* intends to he n business man. Many' fit. t-* loss business men tell tli# l>.v to go to work instead of schools. A Greek maxim says: ‘Tench the boy what :he man needs.’ Farragut. Hannibal, Alexander. Napoleon. Carnegie, VVana* maker. Gould, Rockefeller were trained ■ rom boyhood for their work Our great financiers are not college men. v Indi ro tly college education affect? everybody*. Herbert Spences Irlls us that the function of education is to prepare for complete living <f ihe loys who enter college, one-half go back to the farm, one-fourih eo into bus ness. There boys are not offered preparation for complete living. This is the ngo of ihe business man and he must be educated for his work. “The second rpns ion is. Should this higher commercial education he given in our colleges nnd universities in preference !*> special schools? If the course is to he planned and taught by classical or scien tific professors, it will he a farce. If it is planned by educational business men , and taught by specialists, it will he • | great success.

Commercial courSe must be* added to college to keep women from outnumbering the men in colieges. Lnrßr expense can he saved hy letting commercial students attend some classes already in the colleges and use the college libraries and apiaraius. Both classical and commercial students will b# broader and hotter for this association.” Krntx >n C hild Study. Those interested in child study heard a paper on that subject by H. E. Kratz of Sioux City, la. Mr. H. E. Kr.ifz said, in part: “The chief purpose of this paper is to present n simple investigation, made in one of our high school classes in Eng lish, in regard to the sensations and emo tions aroused by music, and to point out its advantages as an exercise in Eng lish. It was hoped 4bat h Invesß gation would tend to lead the students into deeper appreciation of that which way best in music, to cultivate in them a love for the beautiful, 4o enrich their emotional life, to develop the habit of in irospectlon, nnd thus reveal to themselves iheir inner life, and In consequence help to mould and shape right charater. “The students were instructed to listen lo ihe playing of three selections on the piano, the titles of which were not given ihem. make notes of oarh selection as to what they would regard an appropriate title. Its general character, what It sug gested and what feelings or emotions it arouse <1 Later, they' were to write out, as an English exercise, their impressions. The selections played were “The Alpine Storm.” by Kunkei; “Cradle Song,” by Holler, and hc “Harlequin.” by Chami nade. These, as the tlffe indicates, are t widely different in character and present Hiking contrasts. The mad pranks of “The. Harlequin” were most clearly set forth, ns sixty oirt of the seven<ty-o*ne correctly interpreted it. “The Cradle Song” was most difficult to interpret, be cause the Id* as the author intended to convey were ne< so well marked. To meditate, to muse, to be soothed, to hear m lullaby, is to open the heart to many varying emotions. “The paper* disclosed generally that the gills possessed maHirer view’s of mus ical matters, understood their inner selves better, discriminated more closely In their nttempts to portray their feelings than the hoys. “They were also asked to describe their sensations when listening to music. Their replies indicate a very wide range of feel ings, sensations and emqtions aroused. Pome warned to dance, while others felt nervous. Some felt their muscles twitch ing, while other? were in a happy mood. Rome .were thrilled by patriotic music and were eager to do some great deed, while o-thers wanted to run a race, etc. Forty-one staed that they found it diffi cult to express their impressions aroused by the music. While the emotions are expressed with difficulty, and we often say that they ore too deep for words, yet, if we more frequently came face to far© with our Inner selves, if we cultivated a closer acquaintance with these emotions, we would be better able to clothe our emotions with words, and also accom plish that which is nf much greater value, shape our own character more intellb gently.” 5
