A Generous subscription.
BosroN, March 3.-At the First Baptist
Church, Columbus Avenue, the pastor,
Rev. G., B. Crane, announced that he
would omit the regular sermon, as there
was a more important duty. He called

resting upon the church, and it was his
greatest desire that it should be wiped out.
Years ago he resolved to set aside a sum
each wear to purchase a farm to which he
could retire in his old age, and this
amount he would now give toward the
cancellation OF the church's Indebtedness.

ESPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL
Closed Their Doors Upon Chinese
Labor.
San Francisco, March 3.-Nearly 80 of
the leading cigar manufacturers of this
city, representing several million dollars,
| this morning closed their doors upon over
5000 of their Chinese laborers. This
course was adopted in pursuance OF an
agreement entered into between them, as
members OF the Pacific Coast Cigar Man
ufacturers' Association. The association
is held together by fines and penalties,
so binding that any infringement of their
rules would be ruinous to the signers. Its
organization was due TO the fact that the
Chinese cigar makers have formed trades
unions, and by a series of strikes in differ
emit factories, and by openly disrespectful
conduct to their superiors, have made
life intolerable to their employers. One
| of the prominent dealers says the associa-
ton has telegraphed East for $500 white
cigar makers, and that the Executive Com
mittee will recommend placing in the fac
tories boys and girls, so that they may be
taught the business of cigar making. All
the white hands lave been retained. 1t is
learned that since morning the Chinese
packers had struck on learning that their
countrymen had been locked out. In
| Chinatown the scene was rather exciting
among the locked out cigar makers, but
no information could be obtained as to the
course they intended to adopt.

Ohinaman ordering from Birmingham a

The Generals Response to the Invitation to
Visit Virginia.
CHICAGO Oct 26.-FollOwing is a copy of the
letter sent by General Logan in reply to an in
vitation of the confederate soldiers of Rocking
ham county, Virginia to address them
"CHIoAGo, Oct, 25 1884
Captain John H. Raston, Harrisonburg, Va.
MY Dear Sir--Your letter inclosng a peti-
ton containing over 800 names of confederate
soldiers residing in your locality, requesting me
TO deliver an address at your place the polit-
ical issues presented to the citizens of this
Republic for their decision is received
L regret exceedingly that my engagements
are such that L can not comply with
their request, made in such kind and generous
manner as this has been. 1t seems to me that
the people of Virginia who are willing to lay
aside their former prejudces and move forward
in the direction that will give them prosperity
and be calculated to develope the great mine of
wealth that lies beneath their soil, should adopt
the policy of a protective tariff and invite
Northern capital to invest in manufacturing
etc, in their State, and to assist in the growth
and development of the various industries that
your country is well adapted to. The peo-
pie of the South by adopting this
policy, will move forward to great results in the
future. Those who are so preiudiced that they
cannot think or speak of anything but the mis-
fortunes of the past, and who refuse to aid or as
slst in adopting ary policy that will be beneficial
to any part of their country, will, perhaps con-
tinue to cling to their prejudice. Let the
march of the progressive people of your country
pass them by, and move forward in the direction
of grand results for their people in the future by
joining aud associating themselves with the par
ty of progress, which has shown an ability for
opening the way to, and bringing about,
the grandest results ever achieved by the people
of any nation. These men who have addressed
me in so kindly manner l recognize as brave
men, such must take the forefront in bring
ing the Southern people out from the lead of the
men who have kept their country depressed, and
who have never shown the ability to develop the
great sources of wealth that are everywhere
found in their part of the country. Convey to
these gentlemen my regrets at my inability to
visit them during this campaign, and at the
same time give them my kindest thanks for the
very complimentary manner in which they have
addressed me personally With respect L am,
very truly, JOHN A. LOGAN"

Coal Mines on Fire,

CoNNELsvILLE, Pa, Oct. 26.-sThe Calvin
mine, at Dunbar, was discovered on fire to-day
The entrance was closed by earth and rocks, in
the hopes of smothering out the famesl Old
miners say the mine will have to be flooded, a
plan which is very expensive, and at present
wellngh impossible, because of the
drought The origin of the fire
is mystery. 1t is surmised it might have
caught from smolderng flames in old and
abandoned workings adjoining. Smoke is ssu-
ing from the gangway of the Anchor mines ad-
joining tonight, and it is feared they also are
on fire. The Colvin works include sixty acres
and eighty coke ovens, the Anchor one hundred
ovens and n large tract of coal land. Both are
members of the Connelsville Coke Association.

SOUTHERN METHODS.
Gen. VandervOort and Miss HoIbrOOk lnsulted
and Threatened in Putnam County.

@ the indianapolis Journal.

Special to the indianapolis Journal
BLooMINGToN, Ind, Oct 25.-With desire
to carry Indiana and succeed, Southern tactics
have been introduced on Indiana soil, as was
evidenced last night by the most outrageous
proceeding known since the good old Democratic
times. At Cloverdale, in Putnam county, Gen
Paul Vandervoort, of Nebraska, and Miss Nellie
Holbrook, of California, were advertised to
speak, and at the usual time large audienc e
assembled Miss Holbrook spoke for a short
time, and was followed by Gen. Vandervoort,
who had spoken some time and was referring to
the record of G. c. Matson, Democratic candi-
date for Congress- on PENSIONS denouncing him
severely, when a voice from the back part of the
room disputed the Generals assertions. The
General then proved what he had said,
and added that he hoped he would be accorded
respect, even if he among Democrats; that
this was free country, and so long as he spoke
respectfully of the public record of any man, no
one had a right to interfere. Several insulting
remarks were made but outbreak occurred
until the meeting was over, when threats began
to be made leading the Republicans to become
alarmed. They were largely outnumbered, and
armed themselves to conduct Miss Holbrook and
General Vandervoort to their hotel. On the
way the threats were kept up but nothing was
done The guards, however, remained, and
shortly afterwards a noise was heard from the
outside. One of the men, on going out, was
met by a crowd and inquiry made
for General VandervoOrt. They were told he
was inside, but that they did not need to see
him. They then demanded that he come out
when the mob was informed that the first man
that made an attempt to enter the house would
be shot down on the spot General Vandervoort
was informed of what was said and to prepare
himself He replied, "Let them come on" There
was no further attempt against him until 2:30 in
the morning, when he started to take the train
for Bloomington, when crowd of men rushed
out of a saloon, swearing and insulting General
Vandervoort. and also Miss Holbrook
Again the rufians were informed that
they must come no closer, which
the towards did not dare to do, as several Re-
pnblcans were on guard with revolvers. Had
the mob had leaders there would likely have
been trouble.
Cloverdale is Democratic stronghold in Put
nam county, Matson's own home. Matson is
the Democratic candidate for Congress, and al
though he has majority of one thousand, is
likely to be defeated, which accounts for such
bitterness in this nest of Southern bulldozers.

New York Special.
The week closing to-day has been one of more
than ordinary activity in political circles here.
The Republican managers held long conference,
to-day, and the reports as to the outlook are
said to have been of more than ordinary brill
fancy.

OF course, the battle ground now and it must be

been represented all along that we should That

intelligent citizens, and they are seeing that by
voting for St John they are really voting to
place Grover Cleveland and the Democratic
party in power"
A letter from one of the speakers III Indiana
says that State is as safe as Vermont or Maine.
Colonel Ilbbitts, who has just returned from
Ahuldn1t' sdlu Inere was not the slightest doubt
that Indiana would go Republican, TO which
result Mr.. Blaine's visit would largely con

THE reports from Indiana to-day" said we'll

most encouraging. Mr. Blaine's splendid work
in that State is said to have done more for the
success of the party than all the money that
could have been spent there in a year The peo-

no doubt now that if our organization is main

for a rousing majority in the State"

BosToN, Oct 26.-General Butler has ad-

charges that he (Butler) had made a trade with
Mr.. Chandler in the interest of Blaine. Butler
says:
The story of the meeting on the Tallapoosa

one whom tried to assist when in Congress to

TEEMER-G -GANDAUR.
The Referee Unable to Decide and the Race
Ordered To Be ROwed Again.

ST. Louis, Oct 26-The single scull race be-
miles with turn, Teemer to give Gandaur five
seconds start rowed at Creve Coeur lake,
near this city, this afternoon. Rain fell steady
during the day and until hall an hour prior to
the race, and the attendance was small The
start was made promptly at 4:30 p M, Gandaur
getting away with thiIty-seYen strokes to the
minute, and was leading, about two and a half
lengths ahead, when Teemer started, five
seconds later Gandaur maintained this
lead about mile, when Teemer
spurted and gained one length. Gandaur turned
first one length and half in advance Teemer
spurted again after turning, and caught his
antagonist in IA quarter of a mile, and in the
next quarter he gained lead of a clear
length Gandaur then spurted and drew up
level with Teemer, and from this point, about
half mile from home, the struggle was per
sistent and desperate, each evidently doing his
best. Neither apparently, could get away from
the other or gain lead of even foot, and the
finish was so close that refree Thomas
j. Gallagher decided neither had won and the
race must be rowed over Teemer and Eph
Morris claimed the race by two feet, while Park
er, Judge at the outcome for Gandaur, claimed
the latter was one foot and half in advance. The
referee however, whose boat was little in rear
of the rowers when they crossed the line, decided
above, and gave the friends of the ScullerS the
privilege of naming the day for the next trial
No official time was reported but a gentleman
on the referees boat held watch on the men,
and gave the time twenty minutes and eight
seconds for Teener.
Eph Morris and James T. John, the hackers,
respectively, of Teemer and Gandaur, met to-
night and it was decided to row the race over
next Sunday afternoon. The referee declared
off all bets on the race to-day.

THE WEEKLY JOURNAL
(IND1ANA STATE JoURNAL.)
Price, One Dollar q Year.

The WEEKLY INDIANA STATE JOURNAL
should be in the home of every Republican in
the State, and will be found, as well, valu-
able and welcome visitor into every home
without regard to politics, THE WEEKLY
JOURNAL is a complete family newspaper 1t
is specially edited, and much of the matter ap-
pearing in it is especially prepared for the
wants of the weekly readers. 1t is a COM
pendulum of the NEWS OF THE WORLD from
all quarters; It has full and accurate market
reports; its editorials are political, social and
general; it has the news Of the State and Of
the city. Its literary and miscellaneous feat
ures are of the best.
THE WEEKLY JOURNAL is newspaper that
should be in every family in Indiana, and at
the price named for it there is no reason why
it should not be- Political committees cannot
do better than to see that copies of THE
WEEKLY JOURNAL are placed in the hands of
those persons in their counties who are not
now readers of some sound Republican paper.
The tariff question is the one issue which is
most prominently discussed, and to this the
Journal pays especial attention, advocating
the maintenance of the principle of protection
to American industry in whatever revision of
the tariff laws may be made necessary in the
future developments of business and labor.
In this question the farming community is
deeply interested and the discussions Of the
Journal will be largely directed to the agri-
cultural aspects of the question.

Deplorable Condition of Affairs, Caused by
TOO Free Circulation of Money.
LONDON, Oct 26.-An Anglo Egyptian official
who has just returned from Cairo, gave some
interesting information. He says that the stu
alton in Egypt is deplorable. The city of Cairo,
especially, is becoming debauched by the sud
den plethora of money, caused by the prepara
tions for the Nile expedition. Money is pouring
into the country, not only from England, but
also from speculative people of all nationalities,
and an enormous bill will have to be footed and
paid by England some day. The officials, both
civil and military are careless and wasteful.
The bill of Cooks Tourists Agency for coal and
passports was 81. 100000 during the first two
months after the Nile expedition was decided
upon, and is probably twice as large now. Scores
