Senator Bayard was invited to speak in Ohio in opposition to prohibition, but de- clined on the plea of want of rest His opinion on the question, however, is that " the spasms of prohibition action, which are observable all over the country cannot last for they are not founded in reason or philos- ophy, and will only lead, in few years, to the enactment of laws that are inquisitorial and invasive of personal freedom and liberty of conscience and action that they will be found impossible of execution, and if enact ed will speedily be repealed.''
 Next Sunday the notice of demand for increase of wages, served upon the colliery owners of Lancashire and Cheshire, England, by the miners. will expire by express limita tion. If the fifteen per cent. increase asked for is not forthcoming fifty thousand colliers will again cease work. The men are acting under directions from the Central Union of Golfers, which insists upon fifteen per cent advance all along the line The proba bility is that the increase will not be granted and that there will be 8 strike and much loss and suffering.
 At the last meeting of the Methodist min isters of Boston and vicinity the question whether the Msthodism of to-day, as taught by the ministers and as practised in the life of the church, is inferior in any respect to the Methodism of former years, was dis. cussed. Rev Dr. Sherman said that there had been a decline in the fervor of exhortations that many children of Methodist parents ar too easily led sgsa attend educational institu- tlens Of other denominations and that there Is lack of fexibility and the spirit of tolsr- ance in the methods of today. Rev. G. s. Chadbourne said that the doctrines of eternal punishment and of repentance are not preached as fully and earnestly as they have been in the past. The same subject will be discussed at next weeks meeting.
 This is an uncomfortable year for candi dates. The Philadelphia Tunes recently eatechised eleven candidates for Congress in Pennsylvania, and six of them have answered. The Tunes asked these four questions: Will you work for the abolition of tho internal revenue tax system, except tax on spirits and tobacco? 1? Will you work and vote for the abolition of internal revenue offices which now tax the people over $5, 1000, 900 year Will you work for strict economy Will you labor to make future party assessment robbery impossible? Candidate Harry White answered evasively to the effect that he meant well now and always had, Patton said he favored rigid reform and answered "yss" to all the questions, as did Boyls, Given and McMichael; and Candidate Ermentrout came out for the abolition of all internal revenue tax laws, and announced himself opposed to all the abuses which the questions covered.

The Oldest Tsvt tns tn the United State

Bernard Kepler and his twin brother John N. Ksplsr, were born in Plumsted Township, Bucks county, on March 27, 1792, over nine ty years ago, on the spot where they have resided to this day. This old house, :" said Bernard Kepler yesterday, from which brother John and l. in the natural course of events, must be taken to the grave, has shel- tered us for nearly a century,; and he might have added that from that little strip of land hand in hand they have seen the country pass through three great wars, generations apart, without ever having seen soldier :; have lived within the shadow of their hillside home while one of the greatest countries of the world has grown up in magni6cence with it's mighty network of steel highways, and have yet to take their first ride in a railway car or hear the tick of 6 telegraph instru- Haent.

mans wife lying upon the floor about two
feet from the door IN dying condition,
weltering in her blood, and derringer pis-
tol lying in her lap. Medical aid was inn
mediately summoned, but by the time the
doctor arrived the woman was dead. Mar

for the scene of the murder, going by the
house OF County Sheriff Crunk, who accom-
panied him, and Redman was arrested and
brought to this city and placed in Jail The
coroner was notified, and upon examina-
ton the woman was found to have been
terribly beaten, her body being covered
with bruises from kicks and blows. The
pistol ball entered her head Just behind the
left ear. 1t Is supposed that while she was
being beaten by the brute she managed to
get away from him and started for the
door, when he shot her down. She was
a6ou. nineteen years Of age, and was en-
ciente at the time of her death. There is
intense feeling against Redman in this sec
ton. There is strong probability that he
will be lynched tonight, Redman was re-
leased from the Joliet, Ill, penitentiary
about year ago, having served out a SEN
tence OF eight years for shooting man.
