J. MOii PMtiMe compound known P chflmlatrj, and, therefore, the most explosive subetanoe so far discovered, » Chloride of nitrogen, which probably oonuitB of three parte of chlorine united With one of nitrogen. Its terribly ex­ plosive character, which has' so fax gev«nted its accurate analysis, is due to e fact that it Is a combination of one fijf the most active with one of the most toert elements of nature. It Is a vola­ tile liquid, of brownish color and pungent teste, discovered by the French chemist Dulong, who lost an eye and three fln- #ers in the operation. Faraday and Davy Experimented on it a ft w years after its discovery, protecting themselves with {lass masks, which were in turn»shat ired by explosions of minute quantities of the dangerous compound. Faraday Was stunned by the disintegration of a lew drops which, he merely touched with a piece of warm cement. There is but little danger of chloride Of nitrogen ever being used for purposes ii| deliberate destruction, as its prepa ration on a large scale is practically im possible. Its explosive force is not known, for the reason that any attempt to determine it would probably prove Hate! to the experimenters. According to some authorities, the more recently discovered compound of hydrogen and nitrogen, known as azoimide, is even more explosive than chloride of nitro­ gen, but this substance is still too ob Bcure for a decisive judgment t3 be formed on the subject. -- Pearson's ^eekly. .. •r" * ** FREMONT TO HARRISON.

The etory of the national conventions held should, perhaps, belt begin with that of Philauelphia, which was held in August, 18 >6. The proceedings were in­ formal, the delegates not chosen by any [ rule, nor was any attention paid to the j , number that should represent each State. In fact, it was rather -a mass meeting than a regular convention as the term is understood now. The Re­ publicans had just come into the field of THK WIGWAM, CONVENTION HALL OF I860. national politics, and the smashup of the old Whig party, as the result of the Kansas-Nebraska contest, left the field open, so that the proceedings were watched with great interest all over the country. Henry S. Lane was elected chairman and an informal ballot for nominations for the Presidency was taken as soon as the speech-makuig was ended. It resulted: John C. Freirtbnt 359 John McLean 19s Charles Sumner j, 2 William H. Seward 1 On the formal ballot Fremont was unanimously nominated. For the Vice Presidency William L. Dayton was chosen over Abraham Lincoln, N. P. Banks, and twelve other candidates. Fremont had already been nominated by one branch of the Knownothing party. The Convention of I860. The first National Bepublican Con­ vention held in Chicago was that of 1660, which nominated Lincoln and Hamlin, and which might be described as the opening bar of the overture to the civil war. The politics of the country was in a completely dis­ organized state, and shrewd judges attached the utmost importance to the work which was to be done by the young Bepublican party which had four years ago almost beaten Buchanan. Indeed, Butler in his book declares that Fremont was elected. Political reasons gave the Democratic meeting to Charleston, but the National Bepublican Committee decided on Chi­ cago, after a rather breezy debate, in which it was urged that there was no suitable hall for such a gathering. This objection was promptly met by the pro­ posal to erect a wigwam; and the struc­ ture, costing $6,000, was completed thirty days aftet the ground was first broken. The convention was called to meet May 16, and on the preceding Sat­ urday the wigwam was formally opened to the public with a programme including music and speeches by well-known men. Over 8,000 people were in attendance, each of whom was charged $1 admission, and thu6 the wigwam was not alone paid for but had a balance in its favor at the bank. It is curious here in 1892 to look back at the flies of the old papers of 1860 and note how far the prophets were uni­ formly at sea. The Springfield, Mass., Republican, which, by the way, printed special dispatches fully ten to twenty lines long during the convention and called editorial attention to the fact that its enterprise cost in telegraph tolls 13 cents a word, had made np its mind that Seward would be the nominee. It states that the Illinois delegation would prob­ ably make some effort to secure the sec­ ond place on the ticketf or Abraham Lin­ coln, but attaches very little importance to the movement. Mr. Bowles announced positively the day before the nomina­ tions were made that the ticket would be Seward, and either Blair of Missouri or Trumbull of Illinois. After Seward, Edward Bates was considered the most likely man for first place. May 16, the convention, consisting of 474 delegates (of whom but 466 appeared) from twen­ ty-five States was called to order, and George Ashmun was chosen President. It was a curious body, made up, like the one which had named Fremont at Phila­ delphia four years before, of men of all parties--Whigs, Amerloans, Free Soil- era, Abolitionists, etc.--who had hardly yet shaken themselves into a coherent party with an understood creed. They agreed against the extension of slavery, and they differed on almost every other question. Hence the making of a plat- forrp was a task that required much care and many compromises, but it was done finally, and the convention proceeded to ballot for candidates for the Presidency. In the meantime it must be remembered that the Charleston Convention had gone to pieces after fifty-seven ballots, aud a week before Bell and Everett had been nominated by the Constitutional Cassius M. Clay, and others were also put in nomination. The ballots, which Were taken in a dead, oppressive silence, ran thus: VT . . t First. Seoond. Third.

Then other delegations, one after an­ other, changed to him until he had 354 ballots. Amid the confusion the voice of W. M. Evarts, Seward's proposer, was heai^d moving to make the nomina­ tion unanimous, and in a very cyclone of cheering the chief work of the con­ vention was done. Hannibal Hamlin, of Maine, was chosen Vice President on the second ballot for that office after a hard fight with Cassius M. Clav, of Ken- Nathaniel P. Banks, who after­ ward was prominent in the war, was also among the candidates for the second place on the ticket. Lincoln Again Nominated. The convention of 1864 was held in the Front Street Theater in Baltimore, June 7. Practically, there was but one candidate before it--Abraham Lincoln --and while the proceedings were marked with the greatest enthusiasm the result was so completely a* foregone contusion that there is little historical interest in the story of the gathering. The only contest of the day was for the vice presidency. Indiana named Andrew Johnson, Pennsylvania named Hannibai Hamlin, New York named Daniel S. Dickenson. Johnson got 497 votes, Dickenson 18, and Hamlin 9 bal­ lots. The Convention 01' 1868* The war was over, when the conven­ tion of 1868 met at Crosby's Opera House in Chicago, May *20. The im­ peachment trial of President Johnson, with Its failure to impeach, had not made the Bepublican party more con­ ciliatory, and the speeches and resolu­ tions, the whole temper of the gather­ ing, in a word, was more vindicative by far than the meeting held right in the middle of the civil war. Naturally the greatest interest was taken in the pro­ ceedings, and early on the morning of May 20 the whole street from Dearborn to State was so packed with people that the police had to clear everybody out of the way and then rope the vari­ ous approaches to the Opera House. The permanent organization was ley. Blaine's lieutenant was Stephen B. Elkins. John Sherman's interests wore in th© hands of James A. Garfield. Thesg three were supposed to represent the probabilities of the convention, and G. F. Edmunds, E. B. Washburne, and William Windom its possibilities. Gar­ field was never thought of, nor was a vote cast for htm until the twenty- eighth ballot. It was at this conven- rao.ADBt.rniA ACADEMY or MUSIC, CON­ VENTION BALL OR 1872. lion that Conkiing made hiaTTamous nominating speech that begins: If you ask wnenee comes our candidate our sole reply will bo: He comes from Appornatox and Its famous apple tree.

Hence every one knew that the vote taken in the Chicago Wigwam meant, in all human probability, the naming of the next Pres­ ident of the United Stater., and, accord­ ingly, as the time for nomination drew on, the interest became the most intense ever kn<*vn in a political gathering in this country. Every one of the delegates knew that beyond the convention lay certain secession by some of the States, and possible civil war, and accord­ ingly it was with a grave and se­ rious earnestnoee that the votes were taken. It was ordered ' that no nomination speeches should Ve made, and that each candidate should be sim­ ply named. Accordingly Mr. Evarte of New lark nominated Wllliafa H. Sew­ ard, Mr. Judd of Illinois nominated Abraham Lincoln, Mr. Carter of Ohio nominated Salmon p. Chaee, Mr. Ttlalr of Missouri nominated Edward Batee. Simon Cameron, William L. Dayton, John McLean, Jacob Collamar, John C. Fnemont, Charles Sumner, Ben Wade, speedily efffcted, and Joseph B. Hawley of Connecticut was made Chairman. The platform laid down the lines of the reconstruction policy of the Bepublican party and utterly denounced Andrew Johnson. When it had been read and passed Gen. Logan came upon the stage and in one of hid short, fiery, old- time speeches nominated Ulysses S. Grant. There was a storm of applause which rose and fell and rose again, hats were thrown up and lost umbrellas came fluttering down from the galleries, and in the middle of the excitement some one unloosened several pigeons, which had long red, white and blue ribands attached to them, and which flew all about the auditorium. There was no other nomination, and as the roll was called each of fhe 630 delegates record­ ed his vote for Grant. Thirty-eight States were represented. The contest for the Vice Presidency was much more lively and very complicated, but Colfax finally won. t Grant Ubantmoualy Named. The fusion of the Liberal Bepublicans with the Democrats and the nomination of Horace Greeley as the candidate of the new departure gave a special in­ terest to the Bepublican convention at Philadelphia, which was opened in the Academy of Music in that city, June 5, 1872. The nomination of Grant for the Presidency was a foregone conclusion, and the only question to be settled was the selection of a Vice President. Schuyler Colfax is perhaps the first great officer of state who owes his defeat to the work of half a dozen unknown newspaper men. Tfce fact Is of record that the Vice President had given of­ fense to several of the Washington cor­ respondents, and it was their untiring hostility and the hard work they did among the delegates to Philadelphia that secured Wilson's election by a narrow majority. Grant was unani­ mously named for the first place, and W'ileon on the first ballot for the Vioe Presidency was nominated by a vote of 364i votes, Colfax getting 321J. The convention was one of the most quiet and decorous in the history of the party, few incidents worth noting occurring. Blaine Against Grant. For a year before the opening of the campaign of 1876 there was talk of a third term for Grant, but Grant was not mentioned as a candidate in the conven­ tion, which opened at Cincinnati on the 14th of June in that year. Edward McPherson, or Pennsylvania, was made permanent Chairman. When the nominations were made the gather­ ing at once proceeded to ballot, and seven votes ^ere taken before a nomina­ tion was reached. The first, sixth, and seventh were as follows: On the thirty-fourth ballot Garfield had risen to seventeen. The Blaine managers took him up at once and on the thirty-fourth he had fifty; then came the stampede in the thirty-sixth, when he scored 399 votes. Chester A. Arthur was named for the Vice-Presi­ dency. Blaine Wins. The time was now to come when James G. Blaine was to reach the nomi­ nation. The Bepublicafi^convention of 1884 met in the Exposition Building in Chicago June 2, and almost before its doors were opened it was evident that Blain was in the air.- Blaine, Blaine. James G. Blaine, was the one aong among the shouting Bepublicans. But he was not to win without a fight. President Arthur was a candidate for renomination, for the first place this time instead of the second. When the nominating speeches were finished it was so late Thursday even ing that the convention adjourned until Friday morning, when upon the fourth ballot James G. Blaine was nominated. The first and last ballots were: First. Fourth. James G. Blaine 334}$ 541 Chester A. Arthur 278 207 Georpe F. Edinunds 10 41 John A. Logan. 63)£ 7 John Sherman 30 .... Joseph It.

The custom and regulations most ronimonly observed on board a bucca­ neer are worth noting, says the New Orleans Times-Democrat. Every pi­ rate captain, doubtless, had his own set of rules, but there were certain traditional articles that seem to have been generally adopted. The captain had a state cabin , a double vote in ^elections, a double share of booty. On some directions it was the captain who decided what direction to sail in, but this and other matters of mo­ ment were generally settled by a vote of the company, the captain's vote counting two. The officers had a Bhare and a half or a share and a quarter of the plunder, and the sail­ ors each one share. Booty was di­ vided with scrupulous care and ma­ rooning was the penalty of attempt­ ing to fraud the general company if only to the amount of a gold piece or a dollar. Every man had a full vote in every affair of importance. Arms were always to be clean and fit for service, and desertion of the ship or quarters in battle was punished wit A •death. On Roberts' ship a man who was crippled in battle received $800 out the common stock, and a propor­ tionate sum was awarded for .esser hurts. Lowther allowed £150 for the loss of a limb, and other captains in­ stituted a sort of tariff of wounds tSiat extended to ears, fingers, and toes. In chase or battle the captain's power was absolute. He who first spied a sail, if she proved to be a prize, was entitled to the best pair of pistols on board her over and above his dividend. These pistols were greatly coveted, and a pair would sell for as much as £30 from one pirate to another. In their own common­ wealth the pirates were reported to have been severe upon the point of honor, and among Roberts' crew it was the practice to slit the ears or nose of any sailor found guilty of robbing his fellow. Such feeble in­ terest as now attaches to what was once the formidable fame of the pi­ rates is not even aesthetic; it is mere­ ly comic. NO imaginative essayist discusses piracy as A fine art, but Paul Jones is resurrected as the hero of a musical burlesque. Poor Paul! And he is almost the only one of the whole buccaneering race whose story discovers a trace of the legendary gallantry of piracy. Paul, whose fa­ ther had been head gardener to Lord Selkirk, plundered the Selkirk man­ sion of its plate, which he subse­ quently returned in a parcel , to Lady Selkirk, with a letter of polite apol- ogy. Oldest Man on Earth. Probably the oldest man on earth is to be found in the outskirts of tne City of New Mexico. Jesus Canipeche lives in a hut with his great-great- grandson. who is a full grown man.- Campeche came originally from Spain, where he says he was born IN 1738, which would make him now 154 years old. He has the appearance of being about 90 years old, and is fairly active for an old man. He shows pa­ pers to bear out his assertion as to his age and the man with whom he is "living says there is no doubt as to the relationship he bears to the old man. Canipeche says that he has never known a day's sickness in his life. He says he remembers coming to this country when he was 25 years old, as a soldier, and that was before the war of the revolution in the United States The old man's memory is good, and he tells of things which took place the last century as if they had occurred last year instead of over 100 years ago. In fact he remembers things seventy-five arid 100 years ago better than he does those of recent occurrence. The papers which he carries to prove his assertions are the copies of a church register in Valla dolid, Spain, showing his date of birth and that of his baptism. The papers are undoubtedly genuine, as far as the dates are concerned and the only thing to be determined is whether tliey are rightfully his or not His memory of incidents in the last century would indicate that he is either telling the truth as to his par­ ticipation therein or that he has a most wonderful mind to have stored up the tales in such a manner as to have deceived all who listen to him. The priest of the church whioh he at­ tends is an old man of 86, and says he w is an alcolyte in tne church when he was a boy and Campeche was an old man at the time.--Globe-Dem­ ocrat. How Children are Doctored In Patagonia. When a child in Patagonia is i l l, a messenger is dispatched for the Doc­ tor, and never leaves him until he comes. As soon as the Doctor ar­ rives he looks at the sick child, and then , with muc h ceremony , ro l l s i t up in a piece of skin. He then orders a clay plaster, and by. this time the child has ceased crying, soothed by the warmth of the skin, and so ren­ ders still more solid his reputation as a WISE man. Yellow clay is brought and made into a thick cream with water, and the child is painted from head to foot, causing him to cry igain. •The evil spirit is still there," says the Doctor, sagely, and undoes two mysterious packages he carries: one contains rhea sinews and the other a rattle made of stones, in a eourd dec­ orated with feathers. He then fin­ gers the the sinews, muttering some­ thing for a few minutes, then he seizes the rattle and shakes it vio­ lently, staring very hard at the cry­ ing chjld, then wraps it in the skin again and it ceases crying. Again i t is painted, rattled at, and stared at, and again it cries. This is done four times, and then the cure is considered complete. The Doctor leaves tlje child quiet, enfolded in the warm skin, and goes his way, having received two pipefuls of tobacco as his fee. Strange to say THE? child generally recovers, but if it does not, the Doc­ tor gets out of the difficulty by de­ claring that the parents did not keep the medicine BKIN tightly around the child, and so let the evil spirit get back again. This is the only treat­ ment that children in Patagonia, however ill, are ever known to re­ ceive. • WHESL* very fat man gets on a (LREG^IHIJLIE not only looks swell. bi Give LawgClac fhlhiwffcwi. < Hons of yoar •aaattaig oynles flkr tM. thay laugh not. neither do thay sraUa Vfca? ar* tagubrloa s - dy» peptic.

It is noteworthy whatx a number of men eminent in the era '61-61 are now represented only in the female line of descent. Neither Abraham Lincoln nor Jeffer­ son Davis has a living grandson. Neith­ er has Andrew Johnson, Thurlow Weed, nor Horace Greeley. Gen. Hancock's one son left behind him only a small daughter. There is no representative of Gen. Scott's name. A singular parallel runs betwixt two Confederate Generals, Stonewall Jackson and John Morgan, prince of raiders. Each died before the war ended, leaving one fair daughter. The two girls grew up, married happily, bore each a daughter, and died soon after giving birth to a second child. . Should Adopt Cremation. While some folks in New York would force us to take a step backward by en­ deavoring to get a law enacted which would prohibit cremation, the municipal authorities of Paris have recently de­ cided that the bodies of those dying in hospitals unclaimed by friends shall hereafter be disposed of by cremation. The New York authorities may yet be driven to adopt the same method. In the pauper burial ground on Hart's Island such bodies are buried three deep in close trenches with little earth between. It would seem as though in course of time this must so pollute the breezes of Long Island Sound as to make neighboring shores unfit for habi­ tation. Cultivated Ta«te.

It resembles in form and taste the gum drop of the confectioners, but it has no medicinal taste. It is, however, an effective but pleasant laxative, without griping or discomfort. These drops can be carried in the pocket or the valise without danger or injury. They can be given to the children without their suspecting that they contain medicine, for they will never find this out from the taste, although they will from the effect. In short, they contain the elements of a perfect laxative with­ out any of the unpleasant accompani­ ments that usually surround this class- of remedies. There is no spoon, no- liquid, no bottle, no unpleasant re- . minders that there is such a thing as- 5 medicine. They can be taicen at any | time. Ask your druggist tar the Lax­ ative Gum Drop, and if he will not} order them for you write to us. Smell boxes 10 cents, large ones 25 cents." j SYLVAN REMEDY Co., Peoria, III.
