A PARISH HOUSE STORMED.
Lively Fight Over Catholic Church
Property at Plymouth, Pa.

About three months ago Bishop O'Hara of
Scranton deposed Rev. Father warnegari the
pastor Of the Polish Catholic church at Ply
mouth, and afterward expelled hum from the
priesthood for unbecoming conduct. The con-
gregatlon was divided into two factions and
one OF these insisted upon holding possession
OF the church and parsonage. Yesterday after
noon Bishop O'Hara appeared in Plymouth for
the purpose of obtaining possession of the
church and it's property. He sent for Rev.
Father Mack and deputized him to act in his
name. The police were called upon to inter-
fere in case Of trouble, and call was made at
the parochial residence. Upon admission being
refused the officers were ordered to forcibly
enter the building, and q moment later they
battered down the doors and arrested six Of
the inmates among whom was Martin Which. q
saloon keeper, who acted as the leader Of those
on the inside. A fierce fight ensued while the
prisoners were being removed, and in the
struggle Chief Of Police Michael Melvin had his
leg broken and back injured. number of
other persons we're hurt in the melee, but
none are fatally injured.

an invitation to attend the laying of the corner
stone of the soldiers and sailors monument in
Brooklyn October 80, President Harrison
writes:
81 beg to assure you that If it were at all
possible for me to accept this invitation
would do 30 without hesitation and with great
pleasure. These memorials, in the form of

Please express to your associates my thanks for
the invitation extended to me, and my sincere
regret that engagements here will deny me the
pleasure Of being present on the occasion"

Waiting for the End Of the World.

Considerable excitement prevails in the
vicinity of Screamerville, Spotsylvania county,
Va, at the Adventists' camp meeting. Those
gathered there predicted that the world would
come to an end last night, and, if not then,
certainly before the end of the month. A num-
Der of farmers have left their homes, turned
their stock out on the commons, and are living
at the Adventist camp. Others refuse to work
and only go hume at night. Many have not
sown their fall weat, and say they win not put
9 single grain OF seed in the ground, as the
Lord is certainly coming this year. About
fifty persons are living at camp, waiting pa-
tiently and confidently for the end Of the world

The belle of Deadwood, South Dakota, is Q
young and dashing girl who turned her nine
teenth year on Monday last. Her name is
Margaret Sanford and she is an orphan. Who
her mother was no one seems to know. Her
father entered a mining camp about twelve
years ago, footsore, ragged and almost starved,
having walked across the canyons from Nevada.
The miners gave him food and clothing and be-
gan to constitute themselves little Margarets
body guard One night the old man was found
dead before his door, which the drifting snow
had fastened SO he could not enter. The child
was asleep inside. After the funeral she be-
came a sort Of a wanderer, going and coming
at will, and making many valuable discoveries
of IRE. She learned to use the rifle and re-
volver, and became one Of the crack shots Of
.he camp With two exceptions she was never
moiested. and there was a funeral after each Of
these attacks. A year ago she struck an ore
bed richer than most of those in that vicinity.
and again led the miners to the spot This
time they made q voluntary contract to give
her one-fourth Of the yield. They kept their
word and she is now rich woman. She is tall,
slender and good looking and wears long,
golden hair streaming down her back. On

A Fortune Loses Its Owner.

Jose Antonio Gonzales has just arrived in
the United States from Spain in search of his
uncle, Francisco Grandes, formerly of Santa
Clara, Cuba, and offers $500 for his address if
living or certificate OF death if dead The last
known of him was on the 29th Of September,
1864, at which time he embarked on the steamer
Roanoke for New York; the steamer was cap
tured the same night by a band OF confederates,
and although none of the passengers were mo-
Tested Senior Grandes had mysteriously disap-
peared when the passenger list was made up
short time after in Nova Scotia. He was then
a sugar planter at Santa Clara, but his home
was in Malaga, Spain, and an estate Of two
and halt million reals-a real is worth about
ten cents-is awaiting him upon his return.
Henry A. Parr of Maryland, whose present
whereabouts is unknown. was the confederate
officer who captured the Roanoke. During the
fight several shots were fred, and it is sur
missed that Grandes, who was Of q nervous,
tlmId disposition, either jumped overheard or
was killed and thrown overheard. together with
several members Of the Roanoke's crew. Hi
relatives have been searching for Grandes ever
since, as the laws of Spain call for absolute
proof Of persons death before his estate can
be given up to presumptive heirs.

MaJor Bnrssdale's Withdrawal.

The hot and bitter contest in Laud-
crdale county between the Lee and
Barksdale factions, which eliminated
on last Saturday in n victory for Lee
in the mass meeting 10y majority
of 137 votes, seems to have con-
WINGED Major Barksdale that his
candidacy for the Governorship was
mistake and decided him to with
draw fiom the field.
Major Barksdalc started into the
race seriously handicapped. There
was strong aversion on the part of
thousands of the best Democrats in
the State to selecting any Jackson
man tor Governor, oil any one that
might he controlled by jackson intiu
cnccs. Scores of the best men in
every county in the State who admir-
eel him for his personal worth and
past services, openly opposed or gave
him u duubting and half-hearted sup
pol; because they feared his admins
tratiou might be dominated by self
seeking schemers and political trick
stcrs. He is known rs man who Is

for him, il ~ known that he has some
very unscrupulous friends, as well as

Under the circumstances, we regard
Major Bark sdalc's withdrawal as both
wise and patriotic. The opposition
TO him would have increased ill bit
terness and intensity as the date of
the Convention approached, and
though he might have gone into the
Convention with strong following,
IA deadlock and his ultimate defeat
were inevitable. Had he by any pos
sible turn have captured the coveted
prize, much bitter opposition and
distrust would have still survived
and his administration, however mer-
itorious in itself, would have been

can be a united Democracy. With

BARKSDALE WITHDRAWS
In the Interest of Peace and
Harmony in the Democratic
Ranks.

JACKSON, Miss, June Hon. E.
Bark sdale, candidate for Governor OF
Mississippi, tonight authorizes the
following statement to the press:
proceedings of county conven-
tions as far as held are, to my mind,

test for the gubernatOrial nomination

is concerned, by Withdrawing from

which it will tend to produce"
His outstanding political appoint
ments are cancelled.
When questioned regarding his
withdrawal from the canvass Major
Barksdale said that his action was
without consultation with any one
and is irrevOeable. In reply to the
question as to what he thought would
be the effect of his withdrawal as to
other candidates in the field, he said
that he did not know; that he does
not withdraw in the interest of any
candidate, but solely in the interest
of harmony in the Democratic party.
