Church at Pittsburkh.
PITrsHURuH. June l3,-St. Anthony's
day was celebrated at Father Mollinger's
church, the faith cure priest, to-day,
Thousands OF cripples and diseased per
sons were present from all parts of the

church was crowded with the lame, tho
halt and blind, and by noon 1t was al
most impossible 10 pass along the street
in front Of the church.
The results attained by Father Mollin.
ger In some cases were almost miracu-
lous. The method is different with the
various cases. Sometimes he uses no
medicine, but rubs the deiormed limb.
In other cases he uses medicine alone,
and In some cases both. He pretends to
do no miracles; he simply finds out the
malady, and having wonderful knowl-
edge Of medicine and human ills, pre-.
scribes and invokes Gods and the
Saints all.healiag power to aid him,
He will treat none who have not faith,
and does not pretend to make a complete
cure without q reasonable time, in some
cases months must elapse, and In others
the cures are almost instantaneous.

over 16 cents, and as high rs 10 cents

On the basis Of 10 cents the Crushera

ANTI.JGSUIT ORGANIZATION
Erected in Canada-The Plan of CampaiG
AdOptoi,

EHeCtSd in Canada-Ths Plan of Campaign
Adopted,
TORONTO, oNT, June l9.-At yester-
days session OF the Anti,Jesuit Conyen-
ton, the Organization Committee pre-.
sented its report, 1t recommended the
adoption OF the following scheme;
The Provincial. Association is to be
known as the Equal Rights Association,
Branches will be formed In townships,
villages, towns, cities or other munici-
palitles or parts thereof. Each branch
will have a chairman, secretary, treas
urer and executive committee, and will
send delegates to the District Council, OF
which the headquarters will be at county
towns or other equally convenient
places. These District Councils in turn
will send delegates to the Provincial
Council, or the grand governing body,
which will meet annually or at such
other times as shall be deemed expedl-
ent by the Executive Committee. This
committee will be elected by the Pro-
yinciAl Council and be composed Of
thirty members. The formation OF a
Dominion Association on similar lines
was suggested. The report was deferred
until after the adoption of various reso-
lutlons.
The Resolution Committee reported
five more resolutions. The first ex-
pressed accord with the system OF public
schools and affirmed the principle thata
man should be q separate school sum
porter only OF his own desire. The sec
ond affirmed the principle that nothing
schools OF the Province that teachers
should be qualified to instruct In that
language, and that no books other than
those authorized by the Education De-
partment should be used.
The third pledged the convention TO
support for public positions only those
men who would subscribe TO the princi.
pies OF the convention.
The fourth affirmed the expediency Of
the formation OF an association along the
lines laid down by tho Organization
Committee.
The fifth endorsed the action Of tho
Citizens Committee OF Toronto in having
petitioned the Dominion Goyernmentfor g
the disRllowance OF the Jesuits Estates
Act.
The convention adopted the five reso.
lutions and the plan OF organization, and
the Council met and elected Rev. DR.,
Caven, Chairman; s. O, Duncan Clark,
Treasurer, and +, D. Armour, Secretary,
There was rather warm discussion
over the resolutioninsisting that Enpllsh
should be the only medium OF instruc.
ten In thepublic schools oi the Province.
and that every school teacher should be
able TO teach English.
Several members denounced the con.
ditiHon OF things which they declared
existed In the eastern counties. Princi.
pal Cayen, however, said he thought it
would have been only fair II the Ontario
Government had been credited for taking
Q step IN the right direction in the ap'
pointment OF a commissioner TO inyesti.
gate the state Of affairs in the eastern
counties. The resolution was passed
unanimously,

NEW YoRE, June 1S.-Tho steamer
Alene, from Kingston, Jamaica, June 0,
arrived this morning and brings intelli.
gence substantiating the London cable
reports OF Hippolyte's victory and Legi.
times defeat. Chief officer Williams Of
the Alene said that Legitime had
sought the protection Of the American
consul at Port Au Prince. Hippolyte's
officers had entered Port Au Prince and
taken possession OF the town. The
victorious warrior however, Mr.. Will
liams said, was not popular with the
people generally, and could probably
never be President Of the black republic
by the vote Of the Inhabitants. A man
named Marrann, Legitime's Minister ol
Foreign Affairs or an ex.President o.
the republic whose name Mr.. Williams
could not recall, would doubtless appear
as the next candidate for the Presidency
of Hayti.

BIG DISASTER IN CHINA,

SAN Francisco, June 1S,-The steamer
City Of Pekin arrived yesterday from
Hong Kong,yla Yokohama, with Chinese
and Japanese sdyices,
The Shanghai Courier Of May 10, con,
tains news which the paper received
from O correspondent at Chung Kingt 10
the effect that Lu Chow, a city Of some
Importance in Upper Pangtsze, was re,
ported as being nearly destroyed by fire
q month previous, Seven out of the
eight gates Of the city are said to have
been destroyed, and the loss of life, by
being burned and trampled to death, is
estimated at 10000,
Commenting on this the Shanghai
Courier says; I'm case this startling
news Is true, II IS q remarkable fact that
it has not reached Shanghai before now,
as 1t Is Just a month since the fire was
reported to have occurred, Still
this Is not conclusive proof that
a great disaster has not happen
ed, as month is not too long
q time for letter to reach Chung King.
We met q gentleman in Shanghai to-day
who was in Ichang less than month
ago and he informed us that the Man
DARN was a fellow passenger with him
as far as Hankow aud told him about
the fire, mentioning that three,fourths
Of the people OF Lu Chow had been de-
stroyed.
