Uruukeuuex Iu Cuugress. The recent ridiculous " investigation" of alleged inebriety en the-part of a mem ber of the Heuse of Representatives from Alabama serves us a reminder of the great change that has come ever the habits of our puuiic men since tuc wnr, writes an old Washington correspondent. I re member, says a writer in The Oammcr- cial Gazette hearing Senater Merrill of Vermont say that when he was a mem ber of the Heuso of Representatives prier te 1801 there was never an hour of a Ce:.- gressienal session that soine member of that body could net he seen under the in- tluence of liquor. In these and earlier days there was always a number of bibu lous members who were mere or less drunk all the time, and generally mere or less quarrelsome. They required, the constant attention of friends, and violent scenes frequently resulted. The corres pondents' gallery did net exist in these days. Thore were writers for the press who attended the sessions a part of the time, but telegraphic reports of the inci dents of the day were unknown, and many things happened which uover reached the public car. Te day the Senater or member who calls aloud On the tloer of the chamber for a drink of whisky seen discovers that his remark has reached the ars of 03,000, 000 of people. The use of liquor in former days was net confined te the members .of any ene imrty or from any one section of tliu country! The Republican -partyIu its; first" year produced' some of the Jol Jel Jol Hest inebriates that wcre ever known.

KEVUBLICAK. THE AGONY IS OVER. Masen Democrats Send an L'ninstructcil Delegation te Catlettsburg. MOTION TO 1NSTKU0T FOR COLE LOST. A Nelxr ami Turbulent Cwnentleu. Harmony, Sweet llarmuiiy, tbe ruintlie Cry. The much tnlkcd of and anxiously looked for convention met yesterday af ternoon nt the Comtheusc. 2fet in several years have the Demo crats of Masen county been 60 stirred up as the have been ever the Appellate race. The opposition te the candidacy of Judge A. E. Cele, though seemingly small at first, grew in numbers and spread in proportions until it became a formida ble army. Te have one's own county arrayed against him in a contest, where county pride gcneinlly coerces peiseual feelings is somewhat singular even in politics. Judge Cele's friends presented a strong minority, and the howlers at the conven tion were in force and geed voice, but the majority e' the delegates were for some ether man. The convention was anything but a love feast. The speeches made were full of firery leeks and words and angry ges tures, and yet the old Democratic chest nuts of "free speech" ntid "haimeny" weie worked for all there was in them. At times the crowd was very turbulent, the chairman almost losing control. Time nnd again some one would arise te speak only te be howled down Frem the noise and confusion the fol lowing was gleaned: Chairman J. N. Keheu of the County Committee called the convention te order and took occasion te make a pathetic plea nfer harmony. He then declared nominations in order for Chairman. R. M. Marshall of Sardis placed A. P. Geeding of Mnyslick in nomination. Jehn rI. I'erriue of Maysville nominated ex-Senater E. L. Worthington. It was then realized that no credentials had beeu handed in and the roll of pre cincts was called for tint purpose. All responded except Murphysville. There was a contest in Dever that caused aheap of trouble, all en account of Jerry Greves. Jerry is a popular fellow, but he was net wanted in that delegation and he did net get in. There weie chaiges and counter charges of irregularity in the ptccinct meeting held at Dever last Saturday, and the trouble was finally quieted for the time being only te break out afresh further en. The roll of precincts was again called te record the vote for Chairman. The result was 20 10-21 for Worthington and IS 10-21 for Goedtug, but before it could be announced T. M. Weed moved that the election of E. L. Woithinirtenbcmaile unanimous, which was carried with a whoop in the interest of harmony, "you knew." Messrs. Petrine and Weed weie ap pointed a committee te escort Mr. Worth ington te the chair He made a speech and of course urged harmony. M. F. Marsh. G. W. Oldham and A. F. Curran, out of courtesy te the piess, and G. W. Rogers. In recognition of his worth were made Secretaries. Then Dever and Jerr' Gravcs"came te the front again. T. M. Weed wanted the niattcrsettfed by committee en Credentials consisting of one from each precinct. J. L. Whitakorget up but was howled down be fore he get a cliaucc te say anything. He tried it airain but the boys would net have it. J. J. Perrine finally made him self heard and seconded Mr. Weqd' me tien. It then turned out that this was precisely what Mr. Whitakcr wnuted te de and all the racket and fuss was for nothing. The motion prevailed and the roll of precincts was again called, each one naming their ewii member of the Creden tials Committee which was made up as follews: Mavsville Ne. 1, T. M. Weed; Ne. 2, J. L. Whitakcr; Dever. J. N. Wil son; Minerva, William Breshears; Ger Ger muntewn, A. H. Browning; Sardis.. 11. N. Pvles; Mavslick, A. P. Geeding; Lew- isburg, James B. Key: Orangeburg, Jehn Peters; Washington, B. D. Owens; Fern Leaf, Harry Bergoyne; Chester, C. P. Dietrich: Helena. 'A. H. Calvejt. The Committee letircd te Judge Phister's office for deliberation, and the Intervening half hour until their re turn was spent in vain calls for a speech from some of the leading lights of the local Demecmcy, none of wlieih, how ever, had the temerity te respond. The Committee en Credentials handed in their report, with the names of the delegates, but Jerry was net In It. pre bably for the sake of haimeny. Dever was entitled te 2 votes iu the convention and theie were 8 delegates present. Of these 5 were en one side aud 3 en the ether of the only issue, tlfat of the can didacy of Judge Cole, with the majority opposed te the Judge. J. J. Pcrriue then moved that a com mittee of three be appointed by the chair te select delegates te the Catlettsburg Convention. A. P. Geeding moved as au amendment that ene from each precinct, te he uamed by that precinct, be appointed ou the Com Cem Com mittce en Delegates. R. M. Marshall made a spirited speech In favor of the amendment. During his remarks he paid the worthy Chairman a, peihaps net in tended, very high compliment by com paring him te ex-Speaker Themas B. Reed of the Heuse of Representatives. Mr. Marshall was there iu the interest of his constituents, nud demauded that he be heard as thelr representative Of course he also wanted haimeny. The question wa9 asked for by Mr. Perrine and the call of precincts de manded. When Dever was reached there was another short hitch Her vote was finally recorded U nve and J no. The result was 10 512 aye, 22 512 no The previeus question was then put and carried bofero T. M. Weed had time te ask that the roll of precincts be called. The chair appointed Daniel Perrine, James B. Key and Harry Burgeync. If all committees performed thelr work with the rapidity which that ene did, much valuable time would be saved in conventions.

Weed, with admirable courage iu the face of sure defeat, moved that the delegates he Instructed te vote for Judge A. E. Cele. J. L.

Willi it lest of course the last hope of the Cele men was gene. J. L. Whitaker then handed his reso lution te the Secretary which read ns fol fel fol eows: Ileselved, That the delegates appointed by this convention, shall vote a unit in the Catlettsburg Convention en nil mat ters and questions coming before that body. Hew the vote shall be cast en each question, shall be determined by a ma jority of the delegates present in person at said convention. The resolution was carried by the same old vote 22 5-12 aye, 10 7-12 no. A. P. Geeding, before a vote was taken en' the resolution, moved te nmend by intruding the delegation te vote for Hen. E. L.

KNEW THETROOPERS. Th Southern Landlord HimI Heard of "Them IV-llere" Before Ueru is another nlvanoe agent story which is amusiag, if trtie. The agvnt entered the office of a one-'lierfco hotel in a "runt" town down south, nnd presenting his card asked hew many the hostelry could accommo date, says The Stage. The Landlord looked at the pasteboard Bcrutlnlzingly, and nfter a painful pause asked: "Wet kind e' troopers be they'-' "Minstrels." "Meen-strels, eh!

Ten of the cars were piled In a mass of debris, and beneath this the peer mortals were crushed. It required two hours te extricate some of the dead and injured. A num ber of Italians employed en the work were attending services at the Catholic church Monday in this city, otherwise the list of fatalities would have been largely Increased. The men were In the emplej of Mc Arthur Bres., contractors, and when Superintendent Wells was asked for the cause of the accident he said some body left the switch open. The camp te which the dead and injured were brought Monday night presents the scene of a battle-field.
