YanktoR's Hens Prohibition Union
Fully Gonsummated ut Last Even
ing's,Mass Meeting. a.
At the Congregational church last
night q large audience gathered for the
purpose of listening to addresses con-
corning the Mems Christian prohibition
union, q recently organized body of tenn
peranoe workers. The meeting was
opened in the usual way, after which
Rev, @. E. Hager, OF the Methodist
church, proceeded to introduce the M.
q. P. u, and to discuss the plans for
work and the ends to which the union
proposed to work. Mr.. Hager's re.
marks were not indicative of any i'm
mediate war upon the liquor traffic, but
were such as would give the opinion
that the union intended to work and not
talk. The gentleman alluded to the
citizens league and pointed ont the dill.
ferences between the two organizations,
one of which was that the league was
we'll enough for the cities, but that its
work did not extend into the country.
and therefore was not altogether effect.
i've. Mr.. Hager's address was full o
hard logic and good points,
Rev. Chas. Herald followed Mr.
Hager and In his address confined his
remarks almost solely to the result Of
prohibitory measures in the severa
states where such measures now exist.
After the conclusion of the addresses
an opportunity was given to any who sc
desired to sign the constitution and be-
come members of the union. Quite
number responded and the fret meeting
OF the mems christian prohibition uniol
in Dakota was an organized success.

Made 1t Pleasant for Him.

Martin Corcoran, special officer on duty at
the houses of the ST. Paul Provision company
on Stewart avenue, was met by four toughs
at 10 o'clock last night, pushed from the
sidewalk. taSsed back and forth, his star
and revolver taken. finally knocked down
and made football of and thrown into the
mud. He presented sorry appearance
when the gang had finished their sport and
he reached police headquarters. Corcoran
thinks he knows his assailants and will
take out warrants to-day for their arrest.
NOTES.
Officer Schorn last night arrested Louis
Vogel and Isaac Felt, living on Robert street,
between Thirteenth and Fourteenth. Fiet
told at the station that Louis was engaged to
q fair maid in the house, and that he was en-
deavoring to slope with his traps and go to
Utah, thus escaping his flapcee. Louis didn't
deny the impeachment, but after few mo-
ments of station house reiectien said he'd
marry the girl and straighten his business
with Fiet. The pair departed, leaving the
baggage as surety for their return.
About midnight last night, Officer Boerner
noticed a man fail to the sidewalk ON Third
street. corner of Market. Going to his assis-
tance the officer found him i'll and speechless.
He was removed to the hall and DIR. Ancker
summoned. The doctor pronounced the
patient in Il critical condition from paipita-
tion of the heart and ordered his immediate
removal to the city hospital. From letters
found on his person he is believed o be T. n.

DAVIS AT MACON.
Memories of the COnfederacy Re-
called.

MACON, Ga, May 2.-Mr. Jefferson
Davis passed through Macon to-day, on his
way to the centennial at Savannah. He
was met at the depot by an immense crowd
and rendered an elegant ovation. From the
balcony of the depot he said:
Friends and Countrymen, Ladies and Gen
temen: This visit to Macon brings up tender
and prescious thoughts, around which cling
memories of the closing struggle and most
import events of the Confederacy. When
the struggle ended ana when my wife and
sick infant sought refuge it was here
that that grand old man, Howell Cobb,
received my wife, who was disconsolate
and prosecuted, prosecuted because she was
the wife OF one who tried to do his duty by
his countrymen. 1t was here also that one
good Yankee allowed us to come to Macon
grown into tall woman. (Here Miss Winnie
came forward and received shout of ap-
plause) With his arm around her,
Mr.. Davis continued: '"This ia
my daughter, the child of the
Confederacy, as she was born in the last year
OF the war, and she exuts in the fact that she
was born in the Southern Confederacy. Ap-
plause. Georgia has been redeemed from
the oppression thrown around her in the days
OF reconstruction, when they refused
to let you in. In this, as in the
right fortitude, and at last your labors have
been crowned. You are marching forward to
prosperity, and may God bless you. My heart
is always warm to you. You are confederates,
and love you for it, Applause. Mississippi
is daughter OF Georgia, and am son of d
Georgian. Again, say, God bless Georgia
and her people.

Riotous Strikers.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, May 2.-Yes-
terday about 100 men, who wanted every
one to observe holiday and work only
eight hours day hereafter. marched from
place to place making their demands
known, and receiving recruits as they
marched along. Some carried book beer
banners. On arriving at Fuller & Rices
mill. outside the city limits, they started to
interfere with the workmen. One leader
of the party drew revolver and ordered
every one to stop work. There being hesi-
tation at this demand the procession soon
made a break in body, driving all hands
from the mill. Quickly they were met
by clubs in the hands of the
mill workmen. This changed the aspect
of affairs, and the mob took refuge behind
some freight cars and renewed the battle
with stones. At this point the proprietors
attempted to make the men withdraw, but
they refused, and pitched battle resulted.
During the melee one man was hit in the
abdomen with large stone, and another
was seriously injured. A perfect hail OF
stones was Showered upon the mill work
men by the mob. The police and sheritf's
force were called out, and quiet was re-
stored. The employees profess to be ell
tirely satisfied, and say they had no desire
to strike.

FIRED FROM A CHURCH.
Several Persons Injured i'm a South
ern Church Row.

COLUMBIA, S. c., May 2.-For several
months the congregation Of the Bethel
African NJ. E. church has been engaged in
litigation over the possession of their church
property, and fight occurred at one time
while one faction was endeavoring to force
an entrance. The trouble originally grew
out of charges of maladministration against
the pastor, j. c. Waters. and church trials
resulted, and the matter seeming unlikely of
adjustment on account of the determined
attitude and strong support of Waters,
he was deposed at the last conference
and r. E. Wall assigned to the church.
The trustees refused to let him preach, and
a suit was entered for possession. Last
night Judge Frazer made an order giving
Wall the church. AT a late hour an effort
was made to get into the building, the
trustees having refused to give up the
keys, and it was discovered that party
was inside
FOR THE PURPOSE OF RESISTING.
The attorneys of the party seeking admis-
sion demanded entrance, which was refused,
and a threat was made to shoot if those
outside tried to get in. One of the door
panels was then knocked out with all axe,
when volley of at least dozen shots was
poured through the opening from inside
and shortly after another volley. John
Glisson, colored, who stood at the edge of
the walk. was shot in the knee with buck
shot, and Chris Lee, hackman, got
pistol ball in the abdomen. He is supposed
to be fatally wounded. AS soon as the fir
ing took place the sheriff and his deputy
and the chief of police entered the church
and captured six men, taking from them
their pistols and an army musket The
captives are Reuben Bright, Ben Partridge,
Jim Robinson, Abram Movra, j. G.
Stephens and G. Renshaw. Several others
escaped through the windows.

American Mortality.

WASHINGTON, May 2.-The report of
DR.. Billings, surgeon Of the United States
army, on the mortality and vital statistics
of the United States. as returned for the
tenth census June 1, 1880, has been re-
ceived by the secretary of the interior. 1t
says:
The total population in 1880 was so, 155, ,7ss.
an increase in ten years of 11,597,5l2. OF
this increase, 2S1, ISL per annum may be taken
as due to immigration, the total number Of
immigrants for the ten years being 2,Sl2, ,191.
This makes the mean annual increase due to
excess Of births over deaths S79,522.
The mean annual birth rate for the
United States is given as 36 per 1000. 1t
appears from the data presented in the re-
port that the United States, as whole,
during the census year had comparatively
low death rate, and high birth rate The
death rate is shown to have been higher in
the colored than in the white population,
in the foreign element than in the whites of
American parentage, in the cities than in
the rural districts. The most important
causes Of disease and death were consump-
ton, pneumonia, diphtheria, typhoid and
malarial fevers, and those ILL ll-deiined forms
OF disease to which children under year of
age are subject.

QUIET CHICAGO.
No Demonstrations There WORTHY
of Note.


CHICAGO, May 2.-There was no excite
ment i'll the city to-day. The weather was
beautiful and the masses seemed to be en-
joying the warm sunshine instead of dis
cussing the labor problem. The capi-
talists and heads of the large
establishments seriously considered the
matter and were also attending the
meetings of many labor organizations. The
streets were not nearly so crowed as on
Saturday, and even Socialists headquarters
were well deserted. There was no dis
order at any of the freight houses or in the
lumber districts, but in both taouble is
expected tomorrow. Leaders of
the labor movement expect many
strikes tomorrow at additional
manufacturing establishments and these
were the cause of excitement and perhaps
Railroad men say they will open freight
houses tomorrow with the old men if they
come and new men if they must.
THE GENERAL OPINION
among them is that the roads cannot afford
to pay the advance demanded by the men.
and they will not make any concessions any
how. 1t is thought the seat of war if
any. tomorrow will beat the Burlington
yards. as that company has declared
its intention of doing its business despite
the strikers. An unexpected complication
in the freight handlers strike seems to
have come up in the shape of the reported
refusal of the switchmen of various roads
to handle their cars loaded by ''scabs." 1t
is not certain, however, that such
action will be taken. In the lumber
district some trouble is anticipated
fIom the fact so many of
the employees are foreigners, imbued with
anarchist ideas. Lumbermen declare that
they will not make the concessions de-
manded by the men, and if they are deter
mined to make mischief there is very
large territory to be guarded. The English
speaking element is unit against disorder
and will use all influence to see that the
laws are respected.
