business, it may be stated that during yester-

lumber firms, one stove firm, one carriage
firm and one bottling concern visited one

Capturing a Parsonage.

CLEVELAND, Jan. 4.-For nearly a
year the congregation of st. Prokop's
Catholi lie Church In this city has been
divided. The trouble began in Feb.
ruary last, when Bishop Gilmour, of
this diocese, assigned to tho church n
priest who was objectionable to the
people, and whom they refused TO
receive. The Bishop thereupon closed
the church parsonage and parochial
school of the parish. Last Friday night
o crowd of Bohemians went to the
c1urch, opened lhe doors and held n
council of war, They decided to 20 to
the church this morning, break open
the doors, if need be, and hold religious
services.
The Bishop heard of the plan. Wheu
the rebellious flock appeared at the
church they found the doors guarded by
three policemen. There we're ten men,
fifteen women and dozen children in
the crowd "he men retired to consult,
but the women charged the police and u
lively fight followed. Stones and
clubs we're used Patrolman Wilson's
hat was knocked over his eyes and a
handful OF his whiskers carried off by
n woman. A woman named Sloba was
knocked down and trampled on by her
companions and her injuries are serious.
