For a variety of reasons the Advertiser has supported and continues to support Speaker Reed for the Republican nomination to bo made at St. Louis for the presidency of . the United States. Whether or not our cherished hope and earnest wish for Mr. Reed's nomination will be realized remains to b-e seen. Durinff some weeks past Demo- crane newspapers, evuieniiy imnxing mac ex-Governor McKInley. Is very likely to win the great prize In the St. LouU competition. have been busily vngagea in trying to per suade the business men of the country, es pecially In the East, that he is unsafe and untrustworthy on the financial question. Their animus Is plain. Dy taking this course thev hoDe to discredit in advance tac pos sible, and as tney seem to think the prob able. Republican candidate, thereby, in the event of McKlnley's nomination, strengthen ing the forlorn hope of the Democracy. Their efforu are deemed to deserved failure. William McKlntev Is a sound money man. Dy votes, spcecaes and " congressional cervices, as wVi as by his splendid achieve ments "on the stump daring gubernatorial campaigns in Ohio, he has demonstrated hia fidelity and his efficiency as the friend of a safe financial system.

In hi. own party, that this narrow gulf could be bridged by restoring the white metal to its old position under the law. liut on every ?ubfquent o?ra!on. In Con gress or out. when t'le issue has been raised, he has stood shoulder ro shoulder with the enemies of coinage debasement. In 1S31 he made h's canvass for jGovernor, against Campbell, mainly on the frt-e coinage Issue, denouncing ani oxixing me roiiy ana dan ger of that measure.

Mr. Robinson fared better In Marion county than his opponent on account of the acquaintance and reputation he made here while serving- as chairman of the commit tee on Judiciary in the last Legislature. He received sixty-five of the 105 votes in . the county. Allen county gave twenty-nine out of thirty-four. Vanderburg7 gave his oppo nent Its solid vote, while St. Joseph did like wise. For Judge of the Appellate Court from the Second district were the following can didates: T. C. Batchelor, of Jennings county: David M. Alspaugh. of Washing ton county; William T. Friedley, of Jef ferson county, and illlam s. Henley oi Rush county. The first ballot was not de cisivo and only showed that the support was pretty well divided. The total vote re ceived by the candidates was as follows: Batchelor ....30C2 Alspaugh 2j3 Friedlev 3S5 Henley ...,418'j On the recond ballot Uatchelor lost heav ily, the resuH Indicating that many of hl3 delegates had swung over to Henley. The second ballot ood: Batchelor. 2Mt:, Al spaugh. 283; Friedley, 336; Henky. 23. Marlon county on the third ballot gave an almost unanimous vote to Henley, liatcne- lor got two votes and Henley 103. Mr. Henley s total vote on tne las: oaiioc was 772. The others stood: Alspaugh, 15; Friedley. 267. and Batchelor, 216. The an- nnincpment of Mr. Henley's nomination was quietly received, the convention being, too much exhausted to voice its eninusiasm wun, cheers. . : BLACK IN THE THIRD. James U. TJlack, of (Marion county, was ser lected as the candidate for the Appellate Judgeship from the Third Judicial district; It required but one ballot to make this nonv Ination, the lucky candidate receiving 820 of the 1,415 votes of the convention. R. Ri Stevenson, of Hamilton county, got 594 votes. James B. Black is well known as an at torney of this city. He Is fifty-seven years old. and has held the office of Appellate Judge before.

Mount, the "farmer candidate," as he has been known In the convention, will not be uninteresting at this time. Mr. Mount is distinctly a farmer, but he has done more to dignify the term in Indiana than perhaps any other man. His landed possessions in Montgomery county are extensive. He owns and occupies five hundred acres of land near Shannondale, a picturesque village situated about ten mile? northeast of Crawfordsvllle, His farm Id a model of neatness, and he calls It "Willow Dale." Mr. Mount lives there In a hand eome residence and personally directs the management of his farm. He is fifty-three yeara cf age. Hl3 family consists of a wife and three children, two daughters and a son. Mr. Mount was bora on a farm In Mont gomery county, March 23, 1843. His boyhood was spent at hard work on the farm. He has a soldier record which Is an honorable one, . In 1862 he enlisted and during the re bellion was on every march and participat ed in every skirmish and battle of the Wilder Brigade. That bis record as a soldier Is yet remembered by General Wilder Is apparent from the tone of the appended letter received by Mr. Mount from Johnson City, Tenn.; March 20, 1S96: "J. A. Mount My Dear Sir: I learn that you are aspiring to the position of Gnvprnnr or tne great state of Indiana. I hone vou may succeeu. jay neart is always with my old soldier boys. If your people knew of your gallant record as a non-commissioned omcer ot tne splendid Seven tv-wwmJ In uiana, tney would at least have contiuence in your unseihn couraee and patriotism- You twice volunteered lo take charge- of uur sKinmsn line on tne oiooiy battlefield of Chickamauga, when to do so seem! like tempting fate. You led the crossing-- of the army at Ross well Factory through the dangerous stream or cnattahoochee river in the face of a numerous foe. You wer ever ready and did your whole duty through the three years of bitter war. and I am sure vou would lead to success the host of .Repub licans of the State;and I arn sure that the men of the old "Wilder Brigade," with their sons of gallant sires, would rally around your banner and help you bear it success fully through the coming campaign to that victory which means proseritv to all. THpv know it was such gallant men as you who made their reputation, and I believe they ...II' ...... 1 I f , w in nui uu iiuuu naming in loyal Support to one of their bravest comrades. I am faithfjuy, "Your friend and comrade, ' "J. T. wilder: Mr. Mount came out of the war a poor man and went to work. After attending scnooi a year ne teaseu a stocked farm and devoted his energies to tilling the soil. .Ills success as an agriculturist has been phenom enal and his reputation as a farmer has given him prominence beyond the limits of the state, in jnuiana he U authority on al subjects that relate to farming. He has written many valuable articles on aerictii tural topics which have been of vast benefit to his agricultural brethren over the State. For several years past Mr. 'Mount, has been engaged during the. winter season In lectur ing before farmers' institutes. In 1S9 and lSil he was a member of the State Senate. He went into the Joint senatorial race reluct antly, as the district wa3 regarded as Demo cratic, but his canvass was vigorous and he was elected py a majority of . over GOO. In lSiC Mr. Mount went into the congres-ional race against Brookshlre in the old Kihth dlitrlct. This contest was regarded as horn less, and although llr. 'Mount made a strjn" ngnt, e went, uown in the Republican vt aw-riuu. While Mr. Mount' Is a farmer, lives on a farm and works and manages It. he h.i not deslreel to.be "classed" as a "farmer candidate, not tnat sucn appellation is un desirable or obnoxious, but because he has believed that a man competent to fill the high office or Governor should be broad minded enough to comprehend the mutual interdependence of all the Industries, call ings, pursuits and professions, and that all these should be fairly represented. While in the Senate he showed his State pride by urgifjc the wisdom of a libe-allty that would enable tne btate to so present Its products and resources at the World's Co lumbian Exposition as would be a credit o tne state and advertise to tne world the. richness of its resources and value of tta products. He is the champion of pood roads, and Is president of the Indiana High way improvement Association. In appearance Mr. Mount is of small stat ure, but he Is hale and vigorous. He always dresses in black, and invariably has his coats cut in the clerical style. He belongs to the Presbyterian Church, is a regular at tendant at that church, and takes a creat deal of interest in a flouri?hing Sun day school In his own neighborhood. In 1834 Mr. Mount was chosen as one of the speakers on Granger or Farmers" day at Chautauqua. N. Y.. where he appeared on the platform with Governor Flower and addressed ten thousand people. Mr. Mount has always been studiously at tentive to his family, and his three chil dren have received thorough college edu cations. His son Harry was graduated from Wabash College in 1KM. winning the Baldwin oratorical prize during ms lai year in college. Mrs. Mount is a fine, matroniy-iootcm)? woman, two or three years younger than her husband. She was with her husband during the convention and !ast night as sisted him In reeeivlnt; his delighted friends at the Denison Hotel. Mrs. Mount was Miss Kate A. Boyd. She was married to Mr. Mount shortly after leavinj? the Leb anon Academy, where she and her hus band were graduated a year after the close of the war. To his friends and neighbors Mr. Mount Is alwaj-s known as plain Jim Mount." . . Defeat Gracefully Accepted. Special Correspondence of the Journal. ANDERSON. Ind.. May 7. All day Ions crowds of enthusiastic admirers of Major Doxey watched with anxious interest every word from the seat of the contest. The tele graph and telephone wires were kept busy by Inquiring friends, and every one was con fident of his ultimate triumph until after the J fifth ballot, when the strength of Mount caused Doxeys friends to become nervous. but they stillxhcped for the tide to come his way. Maior Doxey. begins so cioseiy amea with every interest of this and adjoining cities, was greatly beloved by hi? fellow- citizens without regard to party. Although disappointed, all feel that in nominating Jas. A. Mount the convention has done a good day's work, and he will have no heartier upporters in "his canvass than Major Doxey and the Republicans of JMadison county. OTerheard In n Store. , "Who Is your favorite T asked one fair shopper of another, "Doxey. Shockney or Griffiths?" "Well. I really can't say. I haven't been to a ball game this season." Convention Notes. Many of the members of the last Legisla ture were delegates to the convention. The decorations of the hall were pro nounced the handsomest ever seen in & State convention. The portrait of General Harrison hung over the center of Uie stage In the most conspicuous position in tae hall. County Chairman Young was one of the men active on. the floor in helping to keep Marion county in line for its candidates. The arrangements for the 'seating of del egates and for the entertainment of visiters were such, that order was maintained at nil times. Colonel AVilliam R. Holloway to Colonel William G. Beach Na-a-ahl". Colonel Beach to Colonel Holloway "Phooot." lt was one of those rare things that do I happen this side of the millennium the fur nishing of fresh ham sandwiches at a State convention. There will probably not be such a display of military g ory on Governor Mount's ftaff as there migt have been had another can didate been chosen. It was clearly to be seen in the gallery demonstrations that whoever gave out con vention tickets saw that many fell in t..e hands of Major Doxey's friends. The balloting for Appellate Judge was rut unlike that of two years ago. It was a ge i eral opinion that these Important ofiUes should not be left till the last hereafter. The singing of "Marching through Georgia" Immediately after the convention nominated .Mr. Mount was one of the most inspiring happenings In Tomllnson Hall since the hall was built. "Why, he's the only man in Indiana that ever made money running a farm," sooke 11. C. Adams of Mr. Mount, after the Marlon county break from Griffiths. "That's why I am for him." During the balloting for Governor, wher. the contest was very close, one delegate cast a vote for Congressman Watson, but a murmur of disapproval showed that the con vention wanted no dark horses. Judge McCray, of the Criminal Court, was one of the active log rollers on the conven tion floor. Some of the Marlon county dele gates were not inclined to take his advice on the selection of Appellate Judges. . The First congressional district demon strated again that it "sticks to itself" like a brother. Friends of outside candidates found they were going against a stone wall when they approached that delegation. " Charles B. Landls, candidate for Repre sentative, was a valiant champion in behalf of the successful nominee for Governor, and itiendship for Mr. Landls led a number of Marlon county delegates to vote for Farmer Mount. There was a reunion of the survivors of the bloody battle of the Statehouse elevator yesterday. Messrs. Adams, of Parke; Allen, of Daviess county; Harrison, of Elkhart, and Boardman, of Marion, got together and formed a veterans' association. For the first time in ever so many long, long months did Marlon county vote solid for one candidate, and that was for War wick H. Ripley, for Reporter of the Supreme Court, on the second ballot. Had Marion county 'been united on the first ballot, it might have captured the nomination. - To the man who believes in lucky numbers and all that sort of thing It might be stated that J. A- Mount has seven letters In his name, was nominated on the seventh day of the month, was victorious by 763 votes, which Is a multiple of seven, and will take bis seat .In 1807, which added up makes 25, which in turn being added up gets back to the great mystical number of seven. State Chairman Gowdy Interrupted the proceedings at 7:20 long enough to read the following telegram from the Michigan con vention, in response to a message sent to Michigan Informing that convention that In diana had instructed for McKinley: "The Republicans of Michigan, in State conven tion assembled, return friendly greetings to her sister State. Michigan has followed suit and instructed for McKInley." A WOMAN'S SHELTER. The Flint EstahlUhed by the Salva tion Army In America. New York Evening1 Post. The- first woman's shelter established by the Salvation Army In America Is now in operation at No. S4 IJayard street, a few doors from Chatham square and the Row ery. The start was made about three weeks ago, and the reason that no public announcement of it has been made hereto fore is that the officers thought it impor tant that when information did get to the public, it should come in a clear and accu rate official statement. The experiment is now so well under way that the plan of operation and the nature of the work done can be given, as well us the results as thus far shown. . The building, which was offered to the army for this work. Is a six-floor house, with an excellent basement, but It Is nar row and not very deep. Thus far only the lower floors have been fitted up and they have been filled every night. The present arrangements can accommodate only, about forty-two women, and it was thought that at this season of the year It was doubtful whether even that number would apply. The result has been, however, that women "nave to be turned away almost every night, and will be during the summer until the army is able to fit up the whole building, when they can accommodate seventy-five. Whether this -will supp'.y the demand or not cannot yet be told. The work can pro Kress only through gifts, as the shelter Is not yet self-supporting, as it will be later. The funds of the army are short now, owing- to the recent troubles, and there is nothing' to apply to this work. In addition to this building there are two very long- rooms In a building lu the rear. As soon as one of these roomscan be fit ted up forty-five or fifty beds will be in It, two fey-t apart. There are now twenty five. The other room will be used for pri vate meetings for the Inmates and as a gen eral sitting room for them. In the base ment is a good wash room. As soon as money enough is received for the purpose this is to be converted into a regular laun dry, so that the women who seek shelter In the Institution may be able to earn enough to tay for their food and lodging, and perhap"? fSrnethlng more. Now they are allowed to bring any of their own clothes there that they choose and wash them. On the first floor, besides the dor mitory in the rear,. Is a kitchen and a sort of restaurant containing four tables and a counter, from which the women get their food as they enter. The next floor Is for officers. It contains three rooms, and now holds five officers who are working there. The third floor Is not yet fitted up. As "soon as the army has money enough to fin ish It, It will be a slum post for ortlcers who will make their regular work vls'tlng the poor of that neighborhood and dolnir the regular work of the slum brigade in a re glon where It la thought to be particularly needed. On the same floor !a a lV-ilvirvj room for the Rescue Home. This bo-ne for abandoned women is In Har'.em. There has been a good deal of demoralization cause-d in It by the presence of women who pr tended to lie penitent In order to get lodg ings. Tills receiving room Is tntended to give a chance to test the sincerity of these women before Introducing them Into th regular home. The fourth floor will be di vided up into small rooms for the mere re spectable womn, for those who apply rf p reser.t many kinds. Kach will, have a sep arate bed. waehstand and Mean towel. T.io fifth floor will be divided In the same way, and on the top there will be a dormitory of a cheaper kind. The army chnrces for the accommoda tions and food given the women in order to prevent demoralizing effects of pure char ity. Women who take the bed in the gen eral dormitory pay lo cents. For this nwr get, besides a lodging, a breakfast and a surpti. At present these meals are very light, consisting of a pint of te and bread and butter for supper, and a "pint of coffee and bread ind butter in the morning. One of the first uss of any Rifts which re received . for this shelter will be to give more substantial meali. The women who take the sinyle rooms will nay 15 cents. The dormitory now in use has white iron single bedsteads. Instead of springs cr mattresses they have a 2iece of canvas, laced at the head and foot, with a com-' fortable slant, not so great as the slant of a hammock, which makes pillows needless. A blanket is given each lodger, and more than one on cold nights. All sorts of women are admitted, even those who are so badly intoxicated as to seem dangerous. Some who come are too drunk to stand up. There Is a separate room in -which any woman is put who is in such a condition that by noise or in othr ways she will be likely to disturb the other occupants of the big dormitories.- A short time ago a woman came to the shelter very much intoxicated, frightened, seeminir on the verge of delirium tremens. She asked if women like her were admitted, and when she got in she requested of her own accord that she ue locked in. A woman who has raid for a bed is allowed to bring" as many babies with her as she can get Into th bed, and there is no extra chjarge. It is hard for women with babies to find ad mission at ordinary cheap lodging and mis sion houses, even where the money is sup plied to them, and therefore mothers with children .are to be particularly welcome here. Some of the women who come are of the very lowest. One of the white slaves of Doyers street came In the other day. Whle she was there the officers talked with, her, as they do with all the women, and they succeeded In getting her to return to her mother in a small town. Most of the women are from thirty to fifty, but a con siderable numlcr of them are very old. One .woman, about fifty, the other ' day rfall: "When I am with good people l try to be good, but when I am with bad people I e!o as they do.M A pood part of the wom en fcern Just on the line, using- what little wlU they have to keep sober when they are alone, but getting drunk as soon as they are in.ltcd to by others. One very old wocnan said she was glad to patronize ths shelter, and that as soon as she was ablo to make more money, say 2J to S3 a week, s would make some presents to help on ti rk. This illustrates the general at-Uiide.- T5?ey feel not that they are oelnff he.pe J, but that they are Rrivinr their pat-rotik-e .o the institution, and they have a ix!e3!y desire to do something more tnu nirtw nt when their fortunes improve. Th wemen come In between 5:30 la th ri(t?rnoon and 9:20 at night, and stayMintll 8 fn the morning. In the hours between) the officers have a great amount of work. The building; has to be ."washed with the reatest care, and disinfectants used all the t!mp, and more money is spent in this way than in any other. There is a disinfecting room, as nearly air tight as possible, with, ell facilities for "burning sulphur, where the bedding and other things that need disin fecting are carefully taken care of. Cn of the features of the shelter ts tbs supply of clothing- it sells to. Its Inmates. Fran 2 to 3 cents a garment Is the usual l : .e-, and no matter how fine the garment ) t nts is the greatest amount ever ;.i;ti jtd. i I'm Mtne women come nearly every night si:d now most of them look upon the shel-U-r a? their home. One old woman sprained her ar.kle in the street and an ambulanca was called. When she was asked If sha wished to go to a hospital she replied: "No. I think I would rather be taken home. Tho few who cannot pay make It up by scrubbing. One very old woman received & sltjation recently. Hefore going to work at her new place she came back to tha shelter to wash half a floor which she still owed. The few who have been turned away for Insubordination .have, with one excep tion, all come back and begged for adml ilon, with promises of good behavior. VITALITY OP 1H MHIG. . The Illustration Afforded by the Talis About Theosophy. New York Sun. A young man named Hargrove was elect ed president of the Theosophlcal Society on Sunday by a convention at Madison Square Garden composed of more than three hundred delegates. Th size of tho meeting and the prominence the newspapers have given lo the reports of its proceedings might lead people to Imagine that they were of im portance, and tnat the movement now head ed by this young fellow is of serious conse quence. '- The truth I that there is nothing In theos ophy, except as a curiosity. Of course, there Is really no such thing- as theosophy. It is only a word. There can be no such thing as human wisdom concerning the divine. Thcoscphy, moreover, Is a very frnnli curiosi ty, both in Itself and according; to "he stand ard of measurement which is fixed by even the most extravagant popular imagination. All teld. the last census gave the number of theosophltts In the United States at only 2,500, and it Is not probable that they hava increased since 1890. It is more likely that there are fewer of them, for little as the In terest In the movement was then. It has been dying out ever Fince Mme. Rlavatskj-'s death at London in 1831. She had been exposed compeletly as a charlatan Ions before. The osophy had been proved to be mere trickery and false pretense. The only wisdom about it is the wisdom of the serpenL It is based on pure Jugglery. Mme. Rlavatsky herself used to lauh at the stuplllty of her dupes, fnr shf was a clever woman who had a fpice of humor In her composition. Their jrulli bllity amused her. and she seems to hav found special enjoyment in putting It to extreme tests. The who device of the so-called Theoso phy was contrived by this wicked old woman for the purpose of playing with the voracious credulity of her round-eyed following of "muffs," as she u.?ed to cail Olcott and the ret of the scatter-brained tribe. It must have been great fun for her to soe how seriously they took It all. Dr. Hodgson, cf the Indon Psychical Society, went to India and demonstrated that the whole business was a "fake." but she was not angry with him. She admired him as not a fool. She was not at all afraid of him and "his revelations, for the cynical old woman knew how much more greedy was the appetite for humbug than th ab'll ty to recognize incontrovertible evidence. Now that Mme. IJIavaky hersrlf has gone, there is nothing left of Theosophy that has even a curious Interest for onslb!e reo ple. It Is no longer even arau!ng. fit has lost the attraction which It obtained from her witch-like oeronallty. It is not now the clever practical Joke of a -wily old Russian woman, but bai: become a serious belief with a few shallow anil half-educated men and women. If they tellerec". that the moon wa male of green cheese their faith would )be fully as important as a contribution to religion as their Theosophy now is. Mme. Rlavatsky's Theo?ophy was a clever hum bug. In her llvin-r followers it is a mert manifestation of childishness carried to Jua acy. ' Wild Apples. V Thoreau. Almost all Wild apples are handvome.
