An Unfounded Report.


Last evening wns the time for hold
ing the regular weekly prayer meeting
at Delaware Avenue Baptist church,
and this moruing there were many
rumors afioat that disturbance had
taken place, caused by the Rev. Isaac
NJ. Haldeman visiting the church, and
that he was finally put out. A reporter
Of the REPUBLICAN wishing to learn
tine true facts OF the case, interviewed
several OF the members, and was finally
fortunate enough to meetl Mr.. Halde
man himself.
All those seen denied the reports
which had been extensively circulated,
but gave the following statement of
| what actually occurred Mr.. Halde
wan, who with his wife is on visit to
her father in this city, went to the
church last evening and took his seal
among the audience. Pancoast Allen
was the leader of the meeting, and
several OF the members when they gave
their testimony expressed desire Il
hear their old pastor speak. Finally
Mr.. Allen said that the meeting wa,
open 10 all who wished TO speak, AND
that he was acting under advice In moi
extending q personal invitation to Mr.
Haldeman.
Mr.. Haldemau then arose and said
that he regretted to learn that there
was any ill feeling amohg the mem bert
of the church, and he wished 1t under
stood that he was not the leader of any
faction, but was q friend of the church
and heartily desired to see its best In
terests advanced. He exhorted the
members to he united, and expressed
the hope that the church would prosper
and become mighty power. He also
spoke Of spiritual matters, and closed
wi ith a fervent prayer.
The meeting then closed, the benedic
tion being asked by MIR. Haldeman 81
the request of Mr.. Allen, and the peopl,
crowded around their old and beloved
pastor TO clasp him by the hand
Several Of the members were very fret
in their expressions of disapprobatior
of the course pursued by Mr.. Allen
and some of the ladies were so affected
by what they considered slight t.
their old pastor, that they shed tears
There was no disturbance whatever
but while the people were still engaged
in conversation, some one turned on
the gas, leaving them all in darkness
which as a matter of course causei
some confusion. Mr.. Haldeman sale
this morning that he thought Mr.
Allen had ccted under q misnnderstand
ing, and not from any desire to sligh
him or wound his feelings.

THE SLUAGERS.
The Muscular Aggregation Here
YESTERDAY.

The Muscular Aggregation Here
Yesterday.
Yesterday morning Carson was
invaded by the athletic combine
ton. Ross and Cannon the wrest-
lers, and Cleary ard Dempsey the
pugilists. Duncan Ross is prob
ably the best known athlete now
living, having lowered all previous
records in dumb bell lifting, sledge
throwing, etc. He is . man who at
first sight dses not impress one as
being a large or muscular man, but
he is we'll knit and swells his
clothes out all round. He is quiet
| and unassuming, and has very lit
tie to say. Cleary the leading pug
Hist of the party, is a broad, thick
| set man, and has come into great
prominence of late, for his knock
ing-out qualities. His hands are
about the size of ordinary West
phalia hams, and he has every ap-
pearance of being able, at short
notice, to send in a dozen crushers,
one after the other.
He recently fought Mitchell to a
draw in San Francisco, and Sulli-
van is about the only man he
avoids.
Dempsey is a lightweight. but
the best Of his weight in the world.
He fools along with his man until
the fourth round, and then knocks
him in a heap
Tom Cannon is a Graco- Roman
wrestler, and stands among the
best. In Virginia City he was met
by some of the stoutest miners, all
good wrestlers, and held them over
his head in the air while he danced
jics on the floor. In the evening
they had fair audience at the
Old Theater. anu gave some line
exhibits Of what men can do with
their arms when trained to 90 it
scientlfcly.
The wrestling bout between Ross
and Cannon, was particularly good;
they we're the living picture Of the
Of the Grecian Gladiators. The
boxing was more scientific than the
Sullivan party showed, barring
Sullivan, and unlike their prede
cessors, did not get bowling drunk
after the show,

Good Advice.

The Enterprise OF yesterday
morning has the following on the
Ere:
We very much mistake the intel
ligence Of the people of Carson ii
they do not derive some profitable
lessons from the Sunday fire. That
disaster found them unprepared to
fi.ht the most merciless of the ele-
ments. They have volunteer fire
department admirably equipped
and an excellent water supply.
When the crisis came on Sunday
the machinery broke down 1t more
than one point. Inasmuch as one
hydrant was subsequently found
defective there is no telling whether
the failure to promptly get on a
good head of water is to be ascribed
to a broken or rusted hydrant or to
mismanagement Of the water pipes.
One thing, however, was very
plainly discernible-the utter alb
sence of chief in command, some
b .dy clothed with authority to d.
rect the operations of volunteer
fremen. There was no organized
attack directed at any point. A
scattering discharge Of water, reck
lie sly wasted on places in no dan
ger whatever, Knocked all genuine
efforts either to extinguish or re-
tard the advancing line Of fire. If
the business men of Carson cannot
afford to maintain a paid fire de-
partment they should follow the
example of the business men Of
Reno and take the control Of the
FIRE department into their own
hands. The perilous experiment
of trying to dispense with the SER
Wees Of a Chit Engineer cannot
b.. TOO soon abandoned. The art of
turning the water on or off should
not be a secret locked in the brains
of one or two meu, either of whom
may he sick ~ assent when most

FRI h Arise Ccracy.'

Barry & Fay open here tonight
in Irish Alistocracy. The Den
yer Inter-Ocean thus describes the
piece:
Irish Aristocracy" was received
with great favor at the Opera
House on last Monday night bv a
very fine audience. and continued
to grow in popularity as the week
advanced. The play is not one of
particular merit, nor one Of great i'll
tercst as to plot and story, bus as
the two stars, Messrs. Barry & Fay
hold the stage most of the time.
there is sufficient fascination about
Irish Aristocracy" to make one
entirely overlook the detractinc
features. Michael Muldoon and
Michael Mulchaey are two Irish
characters as we see them almost
daily in real life. The force and
realizm of Messrs. Barry & Fay,
their humor and make up, form a
combination rarely met with. The
"parlor skate" scene is one Of the
funniest ever produced on the stage.
Many people entertain notion that
this is variety company. Nothing
can be more erroneous. The Barry
& Fay combination is company of
legitimate actors, with legitimate
play; nor is there a suggestion of
the variety stage in a single mem
Der of the company which as a
whole, is a very good one.

The secret Of cenklias's silence.

The secret Of CenklluE's silence.
New York, July Z A Water
town, N. Y, special to the Times
says: "Since the announcement" Of
| the sale Of the Albany Express and
the reported aailiation of Blaine
| and Conkling as its silent proprie-
tors, the Stalwarts in Jefferson and
St. Lawrence counties have been
| astir and the secrets of the cam
paign held by then begin to come
| out. No doubt the movement means
| an endeavor to secure the defeat of
Warner Miller's denomination as
| Senator, and urging Conkling to
take the seat once more. Whether
Conkling is a party to the scheme
is not known. His friends in
| Northern New York are sanxuine
that he will not disappoint them"
The Times, commenting on the
above, says: If Conkling were
looking about for a polical help
mate he would not be likely to Sc
lect Blaine, but Logan. The ru-
NOR is improbable, for the reason
that the new editor of the Albany
Express has distinctly said the Ex-
press would not be an organ. The
Watertown specia,, states that an
autograph letter from Blaine to
Conkling, written last Fall, request
ing Conklings cooperation in the
campaign, but which was suppress
ed by Warner Miller's friends, is
now in possession of Conklings
friends. The letter was written
upon Conkling's intimation that he
would take the stump for Blaine if
personally requested so to do. The
members Of the Republican Exec
utive Committee, to whose care it
was sent, yielded to the advice of
Miller and his friends, who foresaw
that Conkling's return to political
life meant Millers retirement, and
consented to suppress the latter
At . conference of the Republi
cans at Ogdensburg, Saturday last,
all this was freely ventilated.
Whether the story of Conkling's
willingness to enter the field and
punish Miller's treachery is true or
not. it is believed in his part Of the
State that the disclosures have
killed Miller's chances for re-elec-
ton.
