Later the following report was re ceived from Monessen concerning a mill considered by the manufacturers unexceptionally loyal: "The Monessen steel hoop plant is closed and has been organized by the district delegates of the Amalgamated Association.” The conquest of these two plants is considered by the association people as an instance of their strength. While all the mills of the United States corporation are included in the general conflict, the three companies named are the first attacked. President Shaffer, representing the strikers, said: “The position of the Amalgamated Association has been persistently mis- represented. .We do not the as- sistarice of the manufacturers in unionizing the plants now being op erated non-union. All we ask is that the three companies sign the scales for all mills., whether non-union or discrimination union, thus preventin in favor of non-union plants durin fiuli times, and that, all agreements row in force between the companies end the men binding the latter not to join any labor o celled. nization by can ¬ In other words, we ask only to be let alone in the matter of organ ization.” Vice-President Warner Arms, of the 'American Tin Plate Company, said: “The question on which ’the dis- I agreement took place was whether the Amalgamated Asociatien could force us to work all our plants under a union agreement, whether they were union or not. .We felt that demand to be unjust.” When’ President Shaffer was in formed of the granting of the advance to the McKeesport tuba workers, be said: •“I’ anticipated such action on the part of the manufacturers, and haveAvarned our men to guard against being, blinked, by such dust-throwing methods.

C.—On the return trip of an excursion train from Spartan burg, S. C., to Charlotte, a negro named Walter Haynes began flour ishing a pistol. This occurred in one of the cars reserved for white people. Dexter Kirby, a young white man, who was acting as special policeman on board the train, approached the ne gro and ordered him to put up his pis tol. This Hayne* refused to do, and at the same time began firing. The first hall struck Kirby in the breast, and he fell to the floor of the car dead. The second shot took ef fect in tiie arm of W. W. Stead, a friend of Kirby. The negro emptied his weapon and started out the rear door of the car.

It was the Lord who was di recting this whole matter. 20. “Noah builded an altar.” The first thing that Noah did after his wonderful preservation was to pay his debt of grati tude tc God, who had so wonderfully pre served him. Adam, Cam and Abel offered sacrifices, and there can be no d. ubt that they had altars on which they offered them, but this, builded by Noah, is cer tainly the first on record. The word which we render altar signifies properly a place for sacrifice. Altar comes from the Latin altiis, high or elevated, because places for sacrifice were generally either raised very high or ^uiit on the tops of hib« and moun tains; hence they arc called high places in the Scriptures, but these were chiefly used for idolatrous purposes. “Unto the Lord.” It was “unto the Lord” he created this al tar. Superstition would have worshiped the ark, as being the means of salvation, but Noah's fa’th passed beyond the ark to the God.of the ark, and hence when be stepped out of it, instead of casting back a lingering look at it, or regarding ir as an object of worship, he built an altar unto the Lord and,worshiped Him, and the ark is never heard of again. “Burnt offerings.'’-’ This was “an acknowledgment of guilt and an atonement for sin, a grateful recogni tion of God’s authority and goodness, the means of securing His iavor, and a token of tie giver’s self-dedication to His serv ice.” At first sacrifices were offered by individuals, as Cam and Abel; but after the flood by heads of families, or tribes. This offering was a very expressive type of the sacrifice of Christ, as nothing less than His complete and full sacrifice could make atonement for the sin of the world. In most, other offerings the offerer had a sFare, but in the whole burnt offering all heads with mountainous waves pound ing and a sweeping current running Severn' started across, and six were drowned. The dead are: Mrs. Abe Dick- stein, aged Annie Kronstadt, ated 10; Ida Kronstadt, aged 16; Leah Sil verstein, aged 17: Ann’.'. HorrowAz, aged 13, and Isaac Zacht, aged 22. The bodies of the unfortunates were swept out to sea. Mrs. Dickstein’s corpse was found floating in the surf an hour after the tragedy, but the others are miss ing. Lieut. Ramsay Dead.
