The Feast of Corpus Christi to be Observed
on Troy Hill o.Day.
This morning the residents of Troy Hill,
Allegheny, who are parishioners of Rev.
Father Mollinger's church, will participate
in one of their regular old-time observances
Of Corpus Christi day. In the other Catho-
lie churches throughout the city, the feast is
celebrated the tenth day after Pentecost, but
Father Mollinger believes in the old Ger
man manner Of observing the day and al
ways does it on Sunday.
Last night the houses surrounding the
church were decorated with flags, bunting,
lanterns, etc. The streets we're covered with
sweet-smelling tan bark and arches have
been built on the corners. After mass this
morning procession will form at the church
and march through the streets. Upon some
of the latter altars have been erected where
benediction will be pronounced by Father
Mollinger.

ALL EXPECTED TO SIGN.
No Iron Firm Has Yet Agreed to the Scale


of the Amalgumated Association.
No iron firm has signed the new Amalga-
mated Association scale, but all are ex-
pected to do so. President Weihe said YES
terday that the scale was not presented until
late Friday night, and that he did not ex-
pect any of them to sign ii until the expira-
tion of the scale year. He has no doubt
that all will sign, but says that Jones &
Laughlins have not yet affixed their sigma
ture to 1t, reports to the contrary notwith-
standing. A member of the firm said yes
te day that they had not yet received the
scale and did not know officially what it
contained.
No trouble is expected, however, but the
officials say that almost all the firms will
undoubtedly sign before the end of the scale
year.

remarkable experiences we're gone through
with in order to reach New York. Streams
were crossed in boats and by means Of shaky

The journey was finally accomplished
after eight DAYS and seven nights of hard

New York was travelled several times in
doubling back and forth. The experience
is quite unwonted in the history of the
