oNEaS.

Rev. John J. Kahn, Bishop-elect of
Wheeling, West Virginia, makes the
following affectionate reply to an ad-
dress from his Pensioners at Harpcr's
Ferry. on the eve Of his departure to
assume the higher Office to which he is
soon to be consecrated:
My Dear Friends and Beloved Chill
dren in Christ: Mine is not an easy
task to put in words what my heart
DOW f,e.s. Your address, with its ac-
companying token of atfectionate es>
TEEN, has aroused me to fuller realiza>
ton Of my approaching change, and
the sad parting it will entail
have given the matter much serious
thought. | have often looked ahead
and brought to mind the coming sep
aration from my dearly loved flock,
and the pain it was going to inhict.
But as the time draws near for my
final departure, / feel more keenly the
pang of parting. and whilst thank
you-but thank is too cold and formal
word only use it for want of a bet
ter-whilst. then, thank you from my
heart for the kind, affectionate sentir
ments you express towards me, l cam
not but own that their very expression
has made me feel very sad, for | am
thereby warned how soon the rendlng
will come of ties most dear and sacred
how soon l must forever leave those
among whom I have spent all the
years of my ministry, and whom have
grown to love with all fathers affec-
ton.
Cheerfully would still minister to
you and spend my remaining years
among you, for you have always
showed me the docility and devoted
ness which gladdens the heart and
stimulates the zeal of IA pastor of souls.
But God, our Master, has willed it
otherwise, and you and 1 must bow in
humble submission to His - i'll. as ex>
pressed in the voice of His vicar upon
earth-the Sovereign Pontiff.
Though must now leave my pres
ent home, endeared by SO many pleas
ant memories, snail ever entertain in
my heart the most grateful recollection
and warmest appreciation of your kind
ness and affection, of which your so
handsome and so appropriate gift is
the pledge, as it will be the me-
mentO.
That God may bless you with every
good gift is the fervent wish and shall
be the daily prayer Of your devoted
friend and father in Christ.

Bishop-elect of Wheeling

The mining troubles in the Pennsyl~
vauia coal regions are developing fresh
complications. John Siney, president
of the Miners National Association,
who has figured extensively in counsel
ing and encouraging the strikers. was
arrested at Osoeola, for conspiracy.
The strikers, with Siney at their head,
succeeded in stopping work on the
Moshannon branch. There was no
violence, the strikers simply overpower'
ing with intimidation by superior
numbers. A struggling fire was kept
up upon the sheriff posse at Hutchin-
sons, near Wilkesbarre, by the strik~
ing miners, who had also been cour
seled by Siney.

At Osceola, Siney in an address to
the excited miners, said if Captain I.
E. Clark, of the police force, on whose
complaint he was arrested. should re-
eeive any injury the miners would not
be to blame. He also said there were
times when persons were justified IN
violating the law; that new corners
who were taking the places of strikers
were robbing the children and women
Of their bread, and should be treated
accordingly. He then sent the IN
furiated men to Powellton to drag the
men from their work, as they did at
Fisher & Millers works on Wednes
day. Siney and Parks, the two lead
ers of the striking movement, are both
from abroad and are believed to be in
the pay of the national association and
of shippers in other regions who are
working to keep the strike up.

GREAT ENGINEERING With truth
these are times of wonderful engineer
ing achievements. The replacement
OF an iron bridge to succeed the great
wooden structure recently burned at
Portage Falls, on the Erie railroad, has
been put under contract for completion
within forty five days no slight un
erlaking when it is remembered that
the piers have an elevation of more
than two hundred feet. and that the

THE WAR CLoUD.-Rumors of war
are thick in the air of Europe. The
Car and Daiser are hobnobbing the
British Parliament and the London
Times are waking up to something like
life, France is twirlng its mustache,
and the lesser powers are trembling in
anxiety to know by with ogre they are
to be gobbled up. AS usual on the
brink of hostiiities, the leaders talk OF
nothing but peace. Lonis Napoleon
said the empire is peace, while he was
arming his cohorts for Sebastopol. =
Prussia wanted peace at any price
while marshaling her legions for
Sadowa In fact it has come to be a
proverb that I'VE should prepare for
war when peace is most advised. The
war cloud is believed to have lifted
just now, however.
