An Easy WAY Of sayine Meu,v.

The saving in an ordinary family Of five
by using Walkers Wax Soap. instead Of any
ordinary soap, is fully 10 cents per week on
the actual COST of the soap, and probably
five times that amount on the wear and tear
of the clothes, estimating the total saving ar
go cents per week, that would be s31 II per

The Journeymen Brewers Decide Not to
strike for Ten Hours.
The journeymen brewers of the two cities
who are organized in the Brewers Union,
held meeting yesterday afternoon in Ar
beiters' Hall on Ohio street, Allegheny, to
take action in regard to the impending

lengthy one and did not adjourn until after
6 o'clock. Master Workman John O'Shea,
of the Ice Drivers Assembly, knights of
Labor, was present and made an address to
the men. He advised them not to strike for
the present on account of not being fully
organized. In Frauenhein 81 Vilsack' s and
Pier, Dannals & Co. IS the men are not men,
bers of the union. Committees were ap-
pointed to get these men in. When this is
done the journeymen will be in better po-
sition to en- orce their demands. 1t was de-
cided not to strike for the present.

Beneficial By.Laws.

The Bylaw Committee of the Brother.
hood of Machinists met at their old hall, 1O2
Fourth avenue. yesterday, and drew up a
series of laws of beneficial character. The
society was started about two weeks ago, and
now numbers 70 members.
The members state they are practically old
Assembly 791, K. of L.. now defunct. They
claim that within the past nine years they
paid $4,000 into the order, for which they
received no direct benefit.
AS result of division there are two
rival bodies of machinists in Pittsburg.
There are about 5000 machinists in the city,
but so far no steps have been taken to form
a coalition. The brotherhood has not vet
decided to form another association, but its
members are looking around for strong
organization to tie to. The Federation Of
Trades has been suggested, and the chances
are they will connect themselves with this
body.

Some of the patrons of the Fifth Ward
School, Allegheny, complain that Principal
Snyder severely beat their children. The
marks of the rattan can be plainly seen on
the back of Thomas Porter, a e-year old son
of the Penn avenue grocer. Mrs. Porter
says her son came home from school crying,
and when the principal was asked why he
beat the boy, he replied that it could not be
done without leaving marks.
Albert Steits is another boy who COM
plains of being drubbed too hard by the
teacher. Mr.. McHenry, one of the direc-
tors, THINKS the matter has been exaggerated,
but the parents are highly indignant
Agent Dean said last night that he had
heard he would be called to investigate the
case, but as yet he has not been notified.

New YORK, October ga special cable
to the World from st. Pierre, Miquelon,
says: The transatlantic steamer Geog-
raphy, of the Rossiere line, Captain
Paused commanding, bound from Mon
treal to Southampton with cattle, sheep,
and cargo of general merchandise,
which left Sydney, Cape Breton, on
Tuesday, collided with the Nova Scotia
sailing vessel Minnie Swift, forty miles
off st. Pierre, yesterday morning. The
Minnie Swift sunk within two minutes,
drowning, as nearly as can be ascer-
tanned, two women, three children and
ten men. The others, with part of the
crew of a Norwegian vessel who had
previously been picked up. got on board
the steamer, which, despite all efforts
also sunk at II o'clock. Two boats, con-
tanning about thirty-fve persons, which
put off from the steamer early in the
morning, are still missing. The thirC
boat, with the Captain and fifteen others
was picked up by the schooner Sistel
Bell, and brought to st. Pierre.

Deep water wanted.

TOPEKA, Kan, October 3.-+When the
Deep Harbor Convention met today, the
report of the Committee on Resolutions
was submitted, majority and minority.
The former favored the establishment by
Congress of deep water harbor on the
northwest coast of the Gulf of Mexico.
The minority report asked for the con-
struction of three deep harbors, one ON
the Texas, one on the Louisiana coast,
and another at some place to be deter
mined hereafter. The majority report was
finally adopted.
The majority report states that it is the
sense of the convention that it is the duty
of Congress to appropriate permanently
and for immediate use whatever amount
is necessary to secure deep-water port
on the northwest coast of the Gulf Of
Mexico, west of the ninety-third degree
of west longitude, capable of admitting
the largest vessels, and at which the best
and most accessible harbor can be Sc
cured and maintained in the shortest
possible time, and at the least cost. The
convention adjourned sine die.

THE slender Republican majority in
the House of Representatives has been
greatly recruited by the result of the
elections in the new States. At the
present writing there seems to be clear
addition Of Ave members to the Repub.
lican strength in the lower house. These
elections remove all doubts of the
ability of the administration to organize
the House of Representatives. Repub-
licans find themselves in undisputed
possession of all three branches of the
government, Executive, Legislative and
Judicial, and encountered by RESPONSE
bility which they will be obliged to ham
die with signal prudence and skill to
escape shipwreck. In addition to de-
termining the complexion Of the House,
these elections add six Republican Sem
ators to the upper house, against q pos
sible addition of two to the Democracy
from Montana.

GROFF,S FIRST DECISION.
A Straw indicating the Policy o.
the General Land office.

WASHINGTON, October 3-Commis-
sioner Croft, of the General Land Office,
rendered his first decision today. 1t was
the case of Johannes Frederick VS..
Fred Hanselin, on appeal from the de-
cision of the local Land Office at Benson,
MINI. The decision appealed from holds
that Hanselia failed to comply with the
letter of the Homestead law, in that he
did not establish his actual residence
upon the land within six months after
entry, only digging cellar and building
a foundation. The entry was accordingly
cancelled.
Commissioner Croft overrules this de-
cision, and in a review of the case finds
that Hanselin, who was poor man, was
getting along as rapidly with the i'm
provement of the land aud the construc-
ton of house as possible. The Com.
missioner adds that the six months rule
is not to be insisted upon where evidence
of mans good faith towards the Gov.
eminent is sufficiently shown, or where
his acts are not inconsistent with an
honest purpose to comply with the law.
He sees no bad faith in this case.
The decision is regarded as important
as indicating the policy of the General
Land Office with respect to this class OF
claims.

New YORK, October 3.--The Pan
American excursion train reached Jersey
City at 8 :15 O'Clock this afternoon, hav-
ing been delayed by hot boxes. The
run was otherwise uneventful. Secre-
tary Proctor occupied a seat in the Car
Columbus" having decided at the
last moment to accompany the party as
far as West Point to view the military
parades. There have been some changes
in the list of excursionists. The dele
gates from the Argentine Republic were
absent. Messrs Estee and Hanson, of
the American delegation, who had in
tended to join the party later on, con.
cluded to embark at Washington. Dele
gates Pereira, of Brazil, Navarro and
Limantour, of Mexico, Guzman, of Mic
aragua, and Andrade, of Venezuela, who
were set down as of the party, declined
to 20 at the last moment. 1t appears
that many of the delegates to the Con-
gress, presumably unacquainted with the
luxurious surroundings and conveniences
of the modern American palace Car, were
fearful of fatigues in store for them dur
ing tour lasting forty days.

The Decay Of the Rural Home.
While there will always be many
rich. beautiful and happy city homes,
the evidence accumulates that the
country ought to rehabilitate itself in
this regard. The city that man has
made is growing at the expense of the
country that God made. This is an old
plant, as we'll as a true one. Virgil's
swain heard the moaning winds whisper
the decay of his rural power, and the
ill-boding crow from his nest in the
beech tree also predicted it. He told how
often his crops had been sacrificed in the
city's markets, and her affairs imbusd
with the blood of his focks.
But wider plant is abroad now.
From all the East it comes in the solemn
form of official tabulation. In fourteen
counties OF New York the State Assessors
say there is constant decay in farm
values and thrift. This is true in nearly
all the sparsely settled regions of the
Eastern States, and the New Highlander
of quarter of century ago would open
his eyes very wide if he were to examine
and compare the facts of today with
those of his boyhood. Little farms that
once sustained each it's small
family, have declined everywhere
in value all through New England,
and many are being abandoned every
year. Attempts are now being made to
get Scandinavian families to come in
and occupy these deserted farms. many
of which have comfortable buildings and
beautiful situations, but this offers small
hope of relief, since there is no way to
deal with so many small and scattered
owners.
Perhaps the case Of Vermont is the
most striking Of all as she has always
been an agricultural State of the sturdi-
est type. What makes the matter still

LAKE MoHoNK, NsY., October Sat
the opening session Of the Indian Con-
ference, J. W. Davis, of Boston, reported
for the special committee ON giving aid
to the Mission Indians OF California.
Philip Garrett said the results accom-
plished far exceeded the outlay, and the
committee was continued for another
year. Professor Painter, of the Indian
Rights Association, read lengthy paper
pointing out grave defects Of recent In
dian legislation. He said, in substance,
that the allotment Of lands in severalty
was a step in the right direction, but
under the limitations OF an act sufficient
to take the Indian out of his own condi-
ton. An interesting paper was also
read by ex-Judge Strong, of the United
States Supreme Court, in which, refer
ring to the question of the education Of
the Indians, he thought Congress should
provide funds for the purpose by paying
to the States a sum equal to the amount
which would be raised if the lands
allotted in severalty were taxable by the
States.
