KANSAS CITY, March 22.-Grand
Master Workman Powderly Thursday
received an answer 10 his telegram to
Col. Hoxie, Of tie Missouri Pacific
asking conference. /--...
Col. Hoxie again declines, aud for
substan TALLY the same reasons as gwen
in his refusal of a few days ago. He
reviews at length the relations exist
ing between the Knights and the com,
papy, and particularly the present con.
troversy, and expresses, as before, his
willingness to meet Mr.. Powderly and
the committee as private citizens
when traffic shall have been resumed.
To this Mr.. PowderIy has replied as
follows:
H. M. Hoxie, FIRST Vice Presiden,
Missouri Pacific Railroad Company,
st. Louis: Since you will not meet
with me as grand Master Workman II
the Knights OF Labor, must deciire
to meet with you il any Other. capacily
and the responsibility for the future
continuance of the strike must not be
charged to the Knights of Labor, since
the executive officer Of that order will
not be permitted to meet and co operate
with you in settlirg the strike.
Ii was my intention, had you cons
Sented TO meet with me to endeayOr
10 make such settlement as would
prevent imposition being practiced
upon The employees of your company
by subordinate officials and put an end
to strikes on your lines for The future.

4 STRANGE LIFE AND DEATH.


Aspsclal dispatch from Gainesville,
Ga, March 16. says: The recent death
Of Rev. Charles N, Thompson, at
Halls Mills, has drawn attention to a
curious history. Thompson belonged
to family of esntle blood ia England,
and a. . secona son was ordained
Chuch Of England priest. He was
kiven one Of the richest livings in Not
tingham, and for a while drew immense
congregations. He became intoxicated
with his success to such degree that
he was forbidden to preach, and while
under Episcopal discipline went to
preaching for the "Ranters." His
family at once disowned him and sent
him to America. A couple OF years
before the war, he settled in Dab
lonega, this State, where he met a
blooming mountain cir, OF plump fig-
ure and thoroughly ignorant OF letters
and society Thompson went to preach.
ing untilthe war broke out, when he
became Colonelof the Sixth Georgia
Regiment. 81 As soon as the ministers
relatives in England heard of the
mesalliance they disinherited him, all
save an old aunt, who, feeling for the
brilliant young man, placed $4,000 in
the, Bank of Eogland for, him, from
which be ives to draw the interest.
Unable to brisg his wife up to his level
he soon fell to her and afterward be-
came q wreck. He, however, preached
whenever he could, although opposed
by his wife In doing SO, and she, to
prevent him, would hide his clothes.
He would manage TO- steal them out,
and, reaching some Of the country
churches, would preach sermons OF
such elcquence as strangely contrasted
with his present standing. He died
on the 2sth Of January, aud 1T was
when Col. Capas, q well known lawyer,
was called-in to see about the Eagiish
remittances. that the whole story be-
came public. Thompson left four chill
dren, and negotiations are now pend

from the c61fdsen and permit them to
take thsIr fathers place in the family.
The present Indications are that the
children will be taken to Europe and

makes great ado about freight dis

es beyond the domain of state legis-

the people believe that it is a CUES

for Congress to settle, it is not a

Tm Philadelphia Bulletin says ::
President Cleveland has sent check
for twenty dollars to the Home for
the mothers, widows and daughters
of Confederate soldiers at Charles
ton. We have no desire to cast re-
Election upon the motives of the Pres
ident's charity. There are none of
US who are not ready to lend help
ing hand to the people of the South
in times of distress without regard
to what their course in the past has
been But no one can help thinking
OF the mighty change in events when
only little more than twenty years
after the close of the war, the Presi-
dent Of the government which Con
federates tried to destroy should,
with the approval of his countrymen,
send his charity for the relief of the
families of those same Confederates.
Yet at the same time it is not out of
place to suggest that Mr.. Cleveland,
when he has occasion again to deal
with Union pensioners, might show
some of the charitable feeling which
he has exhibited toward Confeder-
ates.

Superstition In Snyder County.

A recent despatch from Middle
burg, Pa, says: George Dry, resid
ing near Mt. Pleasant Mills, Snyder
county, lost two horses and COW
last spring, and one of his children
took sick. Adam Chupp, of Oriental
told him that the stock was bewitch-
ed and that unless he would secure
the witch and nail her up all his cal
tie and horses and children would
die. The witch, he said, was Dry 3
own mother, who is past so and SO
feeble that she has to crawl on her
hands and knees up and down stairs.
They nailed this old woman securely
in a dark room, where, it is said, she
has been confined for eighteen weeks.
The terrible condition of the old la
dy was discovered on Sunday last,
when she called to some children who
were passing the house, that they
should tell Constable Woomer to
come, for Gods sake, and take her
out of this hell. Dry said that his
wife had to whip the old lady every
now and then to keep her under sub
mission, and that every time they fed
her the sick child would at once get
noticeably worse. 1t is said that
Judge Bucher had issued q writ of
habeas corpus to have the old lady
taken away aud cared toE ct once.
