the keenest curiosity, the deepest inter?
est and the greatest enthusiasm among

Cultivated women go to hear Wendling

ful champion of all those ennobling in?
fluences ami high sanctions so dear to
them. College professors go to hear
him because of profound and varied
scholarship. Politicians go to hear him
because he is one of the men who make
public opinion. Clergymen go to bear
him because his work strengthens theirs
and they get from him thoughts of siart
lintt originality and power in their own
field of study. Student? of oratory go to
hear him to discover beneath the gieat
simplicity of hi.-|style the consummate art
which makes him master of the platform.

CIETY.
The tillrii annual meeting of the Bed?

fruit exhibited and In excellence of qual?
ity. That the work of this society lias
extensively advertised the. advantages of

TRACY FOR MAYOR.
The Ex-Secretary of the Navy Nominated
by tlif Rrgutar Republicans.
New York, Sept. 20.?Benjamin F.
Tracy, the former Secretary of the Navy,
was to-nluht nominated by the conven?
tion of ttie regular Republican organism
tion for mayor of Greater New York.
Seth Low, the nominee of the Citizens'
I'uiou, got less than fifty of tho HIS votes
cast. His name was received by tho ilel
euates and spectators with jeers and
hisses, and Jacob Worth, the leader of
Mio opposition to Senator Platt, was cried
down when iie essayed to present Low's
name. None of the defeated Low men,
however, expressed an intention to bolt
tiie regular t icket.
The Citizens' Union announced several
days ago that the withdrawal of Low
was out, of the question, and the Repub?
lican committee at the same time pre?
sented an ultimatum to the e'.fect that
Low was not acceptable to the Republi?
can organiation. Negotiations were then
discontinued anil were not resumed to?
day, although the Brooklyn committee
of fifty and the I'urroy Democracy, both
supporting Low, made a last appeal to
the Republican leaders in Low's behalf.
These organizations, it is said, are still
loyal to Low. A union of the anti-Tam?
many forces seems now likely.
Ashbel I'. Fitch, ocmptroiler of New
