ART AND DRESS.
A pair of brogan shoes for $t.S0 will
wear as long as a $5.00 or $0 00 pair of
shoes. Then why do we pay the latter
price for a pair ol shoes ? Simply because
man selects bis shoes from an artistic
standpoint at well as from a serTiceable
standpoint. Both art and service arc
combined in
Hathaway, Soule & Harrington's
MEN'S SHOES.
The whole world without art and dress, .
Would be but one great wilderness,
And mankind but a savage herd,
I'or all that nature has conferr'd;
This does but roughsn and design,
Leaves art to polish and refine.

Tbe Northern Church Beemed
Anxloua To Bring About Tbe
Reunion.
Nashville, Tcnn., May 24. The chief
topic before the Presbyterian assembly
was organic union. At tbe afternoon
session, a motion carried to prosecute
tbe Means caieto a conclusion, The
question of organic onion was again
taken up and Dr. Otts spoke. He argued
that the question was an open one and
be favored a conference with the North
ern church. A new generation bad come
on the scene and the church must meet
the issue. Dr. Otts said he was for co
operative only.
Dr. Parcel! argued against organic or
ganization. Dr. Waldea said the two
churches were distinctly separate. Dr.
Daniels opposed organic union. Elder
McPbeelers opposed union and said the
only question now was would tbe
church appoint a committee on confer-
ice.
Other speeches were made and Dr.
Summers read the committee's report.
An amendment to accept the proposals
from the Northern church was offered
and rejected, 90 to 68. The committee
report recommending tbe rejection ot tbe
proposals from the Northern church was
adopted.
Saratoga, N. v., May 24. In tbe
Presbyterian General Assembly yesterday
tbe- floor was given to Dr. Duffield of
New York, chairman of the committee
on correspondence, who introduced Rev.
ur. Markiand ot lialtitnore as a repre
sentative of the Presbyterian alliance,
mmsell a minister 01 tbe Soutuern Pres
byterian church. In this connection Dr.
Uutbeld expressed tbe hope that tbe
dawning of the day may be neat at hand
when a theological orator shall no
longer mark the Presbyterians .of the
United States.
Mr. Mnrkland spoke at considerable
length and was occasionally interrupted
by applause. In opening, he expressed
the hope that the time might soon come
when the effort to bring back the South
ern church like a daughter to the bosom
of tbe mother should be crowned with
suxess.
In reolving, tbe moderator charged Dr.
Murkland to take back to bis church tbe
special message that the Northern church
is longing to be one again with the
Southern church, adding: "It is a crime
for us to be separate any longer."

half past ten argument on the appeal
was begun by Ur. bnntb. 1 be reading
of the lull records was waived except
so far as they were to be used in argu
ment. Prof, smith stated that be pro
posed to argue only six of the grounds
of appeal instead of twelve. His argu
ment at tbe start concerned the exuv
tence of a prejudice in tbe members of

SLAVS
SHOT DOWN.
At This Distance The Affair Looka
Like a Murder Depntlea All
Too Ready To Fire There Will
Be a Lonsr Llat or Wounded.
Faiu Cm, Pa., May 24! A battle oc
curred at daybreak this morning between
Washington Run deputies und about
1,800 strikers. Eight strikers were
killed and at least 20 wounded.
Tbe strikers have made two ineffectual
uttempts Ibis week to bring out the men
working, but were not successful. Ar
rangements were made yesterday where
by strikers from the Fourth Pool would
meet the Youghiogheny men and attack
Washington Run in a body. Seven hun
dred men left here at 11 o'clock last night
and were joiucd by other squads from near
by points. The Youghiogheny men, princi
pally Hungarians and Slavs, numbered
about 1,000. The strikers, beaded by
the Smithton brass band, marched along
the public road Ironting the works. The
deputies who had been reinforced during
the night, were fortified behind two box
cars.
As soon as the men turned into the
road fronting the works, the deputies
stepped forward and shot a man who
had stumbled and fallen into the ditch,
killing him instantly.
This was the signal for a general fusil-
ade from the deputies. Three times tbey
fired into the air and then discharged
their Winchesters into the body of strik
ers who had not left tbe public road.
Three fell dead, and two were wounded.
Tbe strikers fired but few shots, then
broke and ran lor a wheat field above
tbe works. Tbe deputies continued
firing as long as the fleeing strikers were
in range. John Troy, fatally injured.
was taken in churge by Sheriff Wilbelm,
who beaded the deputies.
The men killed were all foreigners,
principally Hungarians, and at noon
their bodies were still lying on the road
where tbey fell.

will take no part in tbe Breckinridge
case as a body, and that there will be no
rclusal to decorate graves.

Miss Mary Harrison, vice-president ol
tbe auxiliary, resigned their positions
today. Tbey are severe in condemnation
of Col. Breckinridge, and while they give
no open reason for resigning, tbey say
plainly it ought not be difficult to" infer
why tbey quit the organization.
Mrs. Harrison is a daughter of tbe
late Confederate General Withers, and
Miss Harrison is a daughter of the late
Jas. O. Harrison, kinsman, historian and
administrator of Henry Cay.
