THE LOCKOUT.
Prospects Of Settlement Of I'll"

The determined stand made by the
pudders since the beginning OF the ditll-
Guilty between them and the manutac-
turers which lately eliminated in the
present lockout and the feeling enter
tanned by the business men mere that y
suspension of work in our mills would b.
disastrous to local trade, influenced call
on the part of the manufacturers for Il
conference meeting, which was held yes
terday. All the circumstances and re
suits of the late agreement TO disagree"
were talked over, and the opinion wa
freely expressed by the manufacturing
branch of the Conference Committee
that the welfare of the community de
manded some compromise on their part.
They therefore presented to the puddler'
plan of compromise which had been
figured out by H. W. Oliver, Jr., that
might meet the views of the wOrkmen,
and restore the mills 10 state OF IN

some length, and seemed to meet the
views of tho pudders IN the Joint Com
mittee, but necessarily it was left /"
the wisdom OF the Puddlers' Union t.
say whether it would be- accepted or not.
This body held meeting to day, AT
which the offer will be submitted. If il
is accepted, tie lockout which seemed
destined 10 last for months. much To the
detrlment of the city ut large. will be
happily averted. -Pittsb@rgh Dispatch.

THE BACCALAUREATE SERMON.

+ Dispite the extremely warm evening,
St. Matthews Church was we'll filled
last evening to hear the Baccaiaureate
Sermon of Rev. j. A. Armstrong, the
pastor, which was preached for the bene-
it CT the graduating class of the Female
College, who were present and seated to-
gether in close range to the sound Of the
minister's voice.
The text was from First Timothy,
fourth chapter and thirteenth verse
Till 1 come give attendance TO reading,
to exortation, to doctrine"
The speaker referred to and expressed
his high qualification at the change Of
public opinion with reference to woman
She is no longer treated as being slmp-
" of hands and feet and body, as in bar.
barianism or heathenism; nor as being
simply of heart and love, to live as doll
or mere caterer to mans lusts and pass
ions, as in periods when righteousness Of
living run wild, and true masculinity is
being sapped; but as being capable of
becoming true companion of her hus-
band in the study, aslwell as an economi,
cal manager of the household,
or the grace Of the parler.
AS the true object of reading is not sim
ply present entertainment or the breaking
in upon the ennui of lazy life, but the
cultivation of mind and heart, and the
adoption of sound principles for the
building up and conserving sound physi.
cal, mental and moral health; SO novels,
though not to be in wholesale manner
denounced should not constitute the
whole, or even chief, matter of young
ladys reading. He referred particularly
to the Importance OF thorough knowl
edge of physiology, culinary chemistry,
and history. These three physical sciences
taught one respectively knowledge OF
his or herself, her physical make
up; an insight of the com.
ponent and elementary parts
OF the food TO be prepared and eaten;
and by the latter study the mind was
broadened and liberalized, and the power
to think and reason was greatly In
creased. By the information thus re
ceived, and obeying the laws Of nature,
Of which made so plain many of the ills
which humanity is now heir to, would
be avoided, and succeeding genera
tons would be vastly more healthy,
robust and vigorous. He referred
to the tive great duties imposed
upon them in their new sphere
Of life, viz: God and society. These
were paramount to all; the main spring
to happiness on earth and in the life
to come An observance of thoss
would crown them with the true bacca
lauri-which is self conscious, blisstuI
immortality which God will give to each
of you at the last.
His remarks were clear and practica
as well as eloquent and forclble, and il

particularly addressed adhere TO a 1.-THE
