The real stiuggle opens with the delegates wrought to an intense pitch over the Pensational develop ments of yesterday, when the Bryan wave swept through the convention and threatened for a time to stampede it then and there. It has disturbcd all calculations and has thrown the ranks iof other candidacies into confusion. 'Tlhe day opened with a coitiniuaince 411 cool weather which has attended the convention from the beginning The wind of the prairies toward the lake, yet it is as balhy as that of early Epring or late fall. There is a haze in the air like that of an Indian summer. The sensation of yesterday and last night had been contagious both within and without the convention hall and the public at large was eager to see its expected development when the con vention opened today. Chairman White and other executive oflicers con ferred early in the (lay as to the <tesira bility of closing the doors against the unruly crowd, inl case of repetition of the disordler and discourtesy of last Iight, when Senator Turpie, Senator \ est and others who made nominating speechee, battled in vain against the confused murmur of hurrabs and cat calls. While there was no disposition to check the expression of exuberant ieehiug at proper moment, yet there was a determination to prevent it tak ing absolute control of the convention ami to prevent it from transacting iiusinlss, The rush for the doors was greater than it had been at any Ireviots sea sion. As the balloting was about to begin it was felt that one of two con ditions would b~e shown, either that the enthusiastic element would domin ate and would sw:ng delegations into line with one accord, or else that a condition would be show n which would make a protrated deadlock in evitable. The Bryan forces were mak ing the most of the phenomenal rise of the young orator from Nebraska yes terday. The adjour nient at Imidnight have given the leaders ot other candi dacies an opIortunity to ially their foree, and it served to give a few hours in which cool counsel could pre vail against the wave of wild senti ient w hich was at high tide last night. But, the convention hall coitinted to be full o Bryan rumors. The Nebraska mau had given by his presence onI ihe lplatiorm that nmagretic touch wiiich lad thub t'ar been lacking. his lpersonality it an engaging one to those who comn bere tired with the sentiment that sal ver is the watchword of the pilain pen, ple. One of the orators had dhubben him as Tiberitus G rachu, thie triburn of the people; oathers sty led him as Cicero, it to meet the Catalies of to day; another had seen thle Amiericat. Cromwell ready to grapple withI t he royal power of wealth. Mr. Dryan reained away fromi the con vent ion hialfI a fter conclumding his sp~ech i. lIe received bullet ins dhetailI ng thei progress of thle inovemien t ini lis baeiht li.e conferredt last niighat amd early t oda y wvithI these ii| chiarie of his interests andh adlvisted thicm on the steps ft be taken. It has been his judgment t hat hxis name shotuld rnot bec fourmaally presented in a speech, but the crowd awaits dlevehlp nients when thle ballots are to be takeci. The Bland mn r.dinmaitting thle ima pet us of thet BryainimovemientI, declare that it was the result of a deOcit fuil generalshipj and say that it fai led toa carry the convention eff its feet. TIhiir stronghnolds, Miissouri, 111linois and A rk aisa, still iemuxaied wit h t he m. The hBlanad menci still count eJ on the West ando were hopeful of in i ning concessions froma the South after the first ballot. I ies andh Maitthewa forces were satistled that no nomina tion couldl be made on the early ballots and that Bland aind Bryan would dIis. appear after their futll strength had been registered had been found insufli cientI to nominate. The lesser candha dlates wex e playing a waiting game, behievinig that the time would come when the convention would in despera ti()n turn from its first favorites and seek others on whom strength could be concentrated. Great interest centered in the courseo of the New York and other gold diele gations. Their conference had failed to bring about a determination to bolt excepit in a few individual instances, hut the purpose5 on the part of New York to refraini from taking part in the ballot had an ominous suggestiveness. With this was couled the reports of the many eastern localities that demo cratic newspapers had declared against the silver platformi adopted yesterday. The silver leaders did not seek to be little the importance of this (attitude by the eastern imen and their press, but labored to develop a spirit of concilia tion before the convention closes. As the war was on and~the fight f. r the nomination at hand, the conven tion was op)ent d with prayer. It was learned that Benator Hill would not attend the convention today and there was a flutter of excitement on the part of gold meni as wvell as silverites It was pasled along the line that he was ill. A delegation of his friends went to his hotel to urge him to be present. When the regular ordler of business was started, the first event wasn Har ity taking tbe stand and naminating Pat tison, of Pennsylvania. H~e was loudly cheered Then Mattingly, (of the District of Columbia, nominated McLean. With this, by general consent, nominations wore closed3 and the roll of States ordered for the ballot. The ball open ed-with Alabama 22 for Boies and Arkansas 16 for liand. Delaware gave 8 for Pattison and 1 for Bryan. The vote ran along, Bland leading. It was seen that Boles was not making head. way but Bryan was forging along with 'land in the lea~d. $everal of the Michigan delegates decined to vote. The first vote for Stevenson was cast by Minnesota, a lone single vote. Mc Lean caught 3 votes from Now Hamp shire. New York and Now Jersey had nothing to say, no candidates and no voting. This action created cheers and con fusion. Ohio east 46 votes for Mc Lean. With the Ohio vote the ballot stood: Bland, 136; Boics, 70; Matthews, 37; McLean, 49; Bryan, 117: Blackburn, 37; Pattison, 22; Campbell,1; Russell, 2. South Carolina cast 17 votes for Tillman, 1 not voting. A hot fight opened when Wisconsin declined to vote. Hogan contended that the unit rule did not exist and demanded the right to vote. General Bragg announced that the delegates were under instructions and the major ity ruled. The first ballot resulted: Bland, 233; Botes, 85; Matthews, 37; McLean, 54; Bryan, 105; Blackburn, 93; Pattison, 95; Campbell, 22; Russell, 2; Pennoyer, 10; Tillman, 17; Hill, 1; Stevenson, 2; Teller, 8. Not voting 185. The result of this ballot outlined the fact that there would have to be log rollir g and swapping to secure a nomi nation. Thero was a quiet feverish excitement when the second ballot started and thousands of' pencils were at work taking down figures. Alabama led off with 22 for Bland while Arkansas followed with 16 for the same candidate. As the roll call proceeded it was easily seen that there would be no nomination, Votes we e scattered along for the candidates. The second ballot resulted: Biand, 281; Matthews, 31; Bryan, 197; Pattison, 100; Teller, 8; 1ill, 1; Boies, :37; McLean, 53; Blackburn, 41; Pennoyer, 8; Stevenson, 10. Not voting 10. On this ballot Bland gained 4s, Boies lost 49 and Bryan gained 92. At this point Mr. Marston arose and demanded the revocation of the two thirds rule. This created intense cx citement. Marston was hot under the collar and red in the face. Without knowing it he had become famous. ie lost sight of the fact that by a counting in and counting out procces his faction held two-thirds, but he did not seen to know that every candidate now wanted the rule strictly enforced which the day before the whole silver element opposed. Some kind friend seeing the feverish condition of the now famous Marston, offered him a glass of water to cool his parched tongue. This act of courtesy brought down the house and Marston subsided as the chair ruled hii out of order. The Marston incidept out of the way, a third ballot was ordered. This ballot resulted: Bland, 291; Boise, 3; Matthews, 34; Meban, 5; Bry an, 219; Black burn, 27; Pattison, 97; Stevensan, 9; 11ill, 1. Not voting 162. Chianges from second ballot as fol lows: Bland loBes 10, Bryan gains 3;i, Boics loses 3. The tourth ballot was ordered. Alabana which. had stood irm ly for Bland cast 22 votes for Bryan.

This letter from Bland ise that his name be withdrawn lit i mny time whlen it appears that some 1 )thers candidate seemed to be thet ahoice of the convention. Acting on this letter Governor 8tone withdrew tho name of Blandl and cast the vote of Missouri for Blryau. Then followed ai break to Bryan until all wondered i. any iname had been before the convcntion. Then followed motions to make the nomination unanimous and amid the confusion the chairman announced the nomination unanimous. This seemed to break down the delegaten and a mo tion to take a recess to 8 o'clock was about as unanimously ad pted. EVENtNol SESSION. It is gossip that tile Ohio break to Bryan was made in the interest of Mc Lean for vice president. But there Is a wheel within a wheel. It is argued that two western men will not suit and Sibley, of Pennsylvania, Williams. of Massachusetts, and Sewell, of Maine, will be prominent candidates. Howell, of Georgia, is i'so a p ,ssibil. ity, while DQniel, of Virginia, is talked about. McLean, of O'aio, with his barrel of money seems to be the favor ito. When the convention met this even ing General Bragg of Wilsconsin rose to a question of hrgh and exuilted State privileae He said some one stole the Wisconsin State banner and joined the Bryan proceseion. This created good humor. Then followed motions to adjourn until tomorrow It seemed to be the general feeling that enough had been do~ne for one day and delegates wanted to exchange views and so It was do. cided to adjouru until 1Q o'clock to A Terrible _Experience The Raven Hair of a Brido -Elect I Turns White in a Few Hours. Savannoalh News. A lady in Sylvania, Ga., relates the 1 following true story of a most thrilling experience through which a friend of hers passcd some years ago, and which hais never beei published: It was neir Milledgevillo that this friend-a beautiful young lady-I Ived. Pauline Wias her name. She was en gaged to be married to a gentlemns from another State. The appointed time had come, and the large house was tilled with guests for the occasion. There was one very particular friend, however, a young lady, whom the bride-elect wished to have present, but it was impossible for hor to get there before the morning after the night ap pointed for the marriago. She toic graphed her friend to come, and post poned the wedding until the following morning. That night they hold a large recep tion at the house, and numbers of the guests remained over, so that they might be picsent next morning. Thle. house being crowded, the young lady . gave up her own room to friends, and with her maid went over into an unused chamber, somewhat separated from the other part of the house, and which was called the "blue room." It was up on the secon floor, and was connectol by lattico work with the main building. 11cr father protested against her going there, but sh114 said she was not a fratid. 'The0 little inaid, after btratigItening. up tihe room, lay dowin on at pallot to sleep, and tihe young lady, extinguish ing tihe light, sat before the dying I blaze on the i earth, lost in rev'ery. soon ( the ma aid begana to sob, and sait she felt so uineisy that she was afraid to sleep in tle room.

Franz Molineaux, who boa her rival over the sea by four hour and won back her husband's love. Thi story is quite interesting : Molineaux bad been wealthy in Bor lIt. He had married the daughter o a rich grain merchant. When h( failed in business he quarreled witi his wife, for she made some remiarl about his poverty which angered him H1e left her, saying that he would g< to America and begin life over again They were both proud, and she por aiLtted him t-> go alone, although ir her heart she loved him.

The other one, olt'tha Niehling. wts a steerage passenger on the Venetia from Ilamberg. The Venetia sailed first, yet the fast steamer Lahn bcat het into port, by four hours, with Mrs. Moli neaux in the first cabin. She is a tall, liandsomie woman. She was dressed in the Most approved fashion, and hot manners were those of a well born German woman. She had but little dilliculty in inte esting the authorities in her case. Detective Peter Groden found the hus band and informed him that a woman was at ilis island waiting to see him. Molineaux was taken there yesterday, and ic. Sonntor, the commissioner of iminigration, asked him some very searching questions. Then he dis missel him to another room and talk o(1 to Mrs. Molineaix. Neither hus band nor wife know of the presence of the other on the island. They were both brought into the same1 ioom. The woman it the sight of her husband threw her arms about his neck and then fainted. She re covered opporttncly and told him how eruelly she had misunderstood him,and that she would willingly share poverty and a crust of bread with him. No man could resist talk like that. Moli neaux kissed her' on thme forehead atnd voiwed lhe would b)e true to hemr to the "nd of time. So they went to No. I MOI I r-xing ton a venue together, w herev they will dwell. Th le (other' wvoman ?Th e st ory is practically3 finishied as far as she is aoineirned. The i mmigiration au thori ties camne to the conclusion, that as she had no friends here now, and was Ii kely to become a pmuli charge, the best thing they could do would be to sendo hcer back to Germany. She will tro back in the steer'age today. A SOLDIER'S MEMORY. Visit ing tho Hat tie Fiel WVhere Ho Was Maimed f'or Life. I)r'. WV. M. Grier, of Due West, ior'si dent oif the Erskine College, was at the reunion in Richmond, but paid a visit to the ancient town of Williamsburg, where he lost a leg in the battle fought thei'o on the 5th of May, 1802. lie writes as follows in the last issue (if the Associate Refoi'med Presbyterian: Not Richmond but Willinmsburg was the object of our v'isit. As is well known, this is the 01(1 capital of Vir' ginia and aboun'ds in historic associa tions. It is not a pr'ogrecssive town. Thiere is nothting of factories or water' wvorks or clotric lights, or even horse cars. WVe were glad of it. Moi'e than thirty-four years hiad passed since we saw it, and1( yet, without the slighiest d illiclIty, we recog nizedl the places with whliih we were once familiar. The old church in which we lay for there weeks, the private house wher'e we were so cairefully nursed for- another three weeks, these were unchanged. Trhey looked just as they did thirty four years ago. And so the battle ground. The line of battle where the Con fedeirat.-s were enaged, P'ort .\agruder, the redounots to its right andl left, these were all cleai' and dlis tinet. As we looked over the ground on that qiet evening last week, we drei'amed. Th1l)irty- four years (1d)pped out of the paist ; we were a sold ieir y outh again, ever' our heads the shells wore bursting, about our eat's the bul lets were whizzing and in a few min utos we lamy wounded andl helpless. Tihe hiouris of anxious suspense which followed, before the ambulance caine upl, the dlopening of twilight into night its we lay in the field hospital, the brief examinatIons of the surgeon ando thien--uttoi' darkness, completo unconsciousniess, andl a hasty awaken ing to the woi'k of the knife. It was all ovom', atnd we were maimed foi' life. The momentrry bitternesssoon p~assed, and from that hour the deprivation hias occasionedl no regr'ots. T1hus~ we dr'eamod ; and dreamed too of the wvon dlerfuil kindness of the good people1 of town as they minister'ed every day to our' comfort. A qiet night in the ho' tel, "' Colonial Inn," only dee pened the im presions of the aftei'noon. We weire glad to be alone. An old resident showed us all over the battle field, which was about a imile Out of the towin. Having hImself participated in the light Ito was fully posted as to motvomolnts of both armies. Our' inti mait eq cuaintances of the place were all dlead or' i'eimovedl. Not one of thema remained. I1aving accompl~lied the objet of our visit we took a final leavi of the historic 01(1 town, never' expect, lng to see it again.

A Noted Duelist Who Wias Actually Intsanie Upon the Subject ol' I.ight. ing. Wishington Star. Representative Iloatner, of I louisia IIL. las returined to Wats')hing toll f,.iuIn New Orleans, and his friends are ex pr)essing their graiflication that the "atfair of honor '' in which lo was involved was settled without an "x change of shots. His associates in tile ouso look upon him as a iiin w ko Id light, blt it is doubtful that. ai ani stractq uestion, he helieves in I o ; p oI) ty'ol dueling. Ile'.woulh prlb abi' ve fought, hall it been neces :ary, si ' ly becauso it is the custoin in that s ion, and he is not timid. There are. V men in Congress now, even aiong e old school Southern men, who bel e in dueling. There are many pierhi w ho, like I oatner, would light if th , thought it necs sary to preserve ti r names froi re proach, but they n onger look upon - that sort of thing natural and Catchings of Mississip I was telling the other day of some of t early duel ing in Mississippi. Now a ian loses his citizenship for dueling *n that State. but thero was a time ion it was regarded as quite the natu and proper thing to settle difliculties lat way. Catchings told the story of the e. plerience of a young man who wvent tV. Vicksburg from 5somew here ast, New l'agland or lo'nnsylan it, som1e Liie before the war. I Iis name wa, I v0hb0in. i1e was a ilnatter of fact business maniu1, yountg and of (plUict, gentlemanly tan nIers, niot u sed to Sou tlherin ways, but disposed to let people alone, l1e ame there to ho cashier of one of the Ilrinei p-il banks, a position which ct-ried with it good social standing. In the spirit of the times, it was deterii.ined by the 11011 of the circle with which hie m1ight be expected to associate to 11I.ke a test of his metal. They began by one of their liiniber pilcking a q'uiarrel with him. Ile avoided the qi uarl and d idl not se its purpose. One after anotheir tried to got him embroiled, without success. Then they began to put in dignities upon him and to insilL him. His only mode of resentment was to say that they were blackguards and that ho won Id have nothing to do with. them. In a short time they had him ostracized. Ile thought he was ostra cizing thIn. He seemed to he entirely unconscious of any loss of digznity or standing in the community and to look upon his isolation as simply his own voluntary retirement from what he considered bad company. Meanwhile he had become an object of contempt among the cavaliers, and finially it be gan to rellect upon the bank of which Ie was cashier. One day, after sone particularly gross insult had 'oen pass ed over by him with his aceuistoiied silent contempt, the president of tihe bank took him aside and explai.ed the situation, adding that he must regain public repect or lie would have to sever his connection with the bank. Robbin asked what was expected of him, and it was explained that ie would have to challenge one of the of fenders and ight a duel. " Oh," lie said, " I can do that, if it is necesary.'' Ie sent innediately a challenge to the man who had las:t pIt an indignity upon hini. This man was one who had fought before, and wvas regarded as a mtost accompili s hid duelist,. ile promptly accepted thev ebatLIlenige ; they fought w ith, piSto.e arid both were danigerously wounded. As soon1 as Hobbin got wvelt he took up his tormenttors in orderi, c ha enug in thenti systematically and del iberately. ie fought, eight or ten duels, k illii. 50ome antd wounhdinig other5 (If hie antagoniists.

In this he had a long r'oomh fitted up l as a 1 Ibrary and armtorv.
