and Devlin, of the executive hoard
of the knights of Labor called on
Webb last evening. Toucey was
with Webb, and the four gentlemen
had an interview which lasted tvon
ty minutes. The offer of Powderlv
to submit the matter to arbitration
was refused by Webb on the gropndo
already presented. In other words
he said: "The company was NOT
jumping on the Knights of Labor
They did not discharge men because
they were Knights of Labor but for
good reasons. Neither Depew nor
Vanderbilt are opposed to the
Knights of Labor as an organiza.
ton"
Powderly once more urged that
the matter be arbltrated, but Webb
remained firm. Devlin asked Webb
if he would consent to an investioa.
ton of the causes surrounding the
discharge Of fifteen men. Webb
reiterated there was nothing TO in.
vestigate; that the company was
managing the road, and he did not
see why their actions should be
questioned.
Devlin then asked him if he did
not owe the public and the EN-
ployes Of the road any duty regard
ing its management in which all
were more or less interested.
Webb did not reply.
Devlin then said there was no use
in further discussing the matter, as
the railroad company had declared
themselves in favor of an independ- )
ent course. !
Toucey then said Master Work
man Lee was primarily responsible T
for the strike.
Devlin asked ,Toucey if he would +
revive the question of Lees action
and consider the discharge of the r
other men. Toucey and Webb re-
tired and that ended the conference. .
Powderly and Devlin then with i
drew without making any threats or u
intimating what they intended to u
do. u
Webb gives this version of the in /"
terview and said the whole confer.
ence was carried on in a most pleas t
ant manner. a.
LATEST OF THE STRIKE. eI
New YORK, n. Y, Aug. 21.-
Chief Sargent this morning said a D
of the federation of railroad b
men is to be held at Terre Haute, I
Ind, Saturday with the undoubted
result that strike on the Wander n
bilt system would be ordered. He eC
also said the labor men had decided v
% adhere 10 the stand taken. This il
had been rendered necessary by
Webb's arbitrary methods, and his IL
litter refusal 20 arbitrate the situa- %
ion made it useless to deal with him Vi
my longer. ia
VICE PRESIDENT WEBB STOLID.
Vice President Webb this morn Of
ing said he did not believe the im- v
pending strike would be nearly so +
gigantic as the federation and the "
knights of Labor would have peo- n
pie to believe. Webb did not doubt
that the supreme court of the feder- II
alton would call out the men, but he S
was of the opinion that the number Z
who would respond would not be so Y
great after all. jt

The Church Choir.

Church singing is matter in which
there is need Of reform, says writer in
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat. Choirf
wish the singing to be with smoothness
and grace, 80 the music tends to cold ex.
actness and loses its enthusiasm. 1t be.
comes mechanical and without soul.
Then, too, choir singers get the idea
that they are the only persons who can
sing, or who have the right 10 sing.
Others who have sweet voices and some
degree of musical talent are jealousy
opposed. They who sing poorly are
not helped. II the church abounded
with singers. the excelencies OF the
few would be hidden. HEARTFELT song
dies, and with it the warmth Of spirit
ualitv also perlshes.
The fundamental hidden idea of the
choir seems to be that the choir is to do
the singing and be honored. 1t should
be to help and teach the church to sing.
The choir should be as large as possible,
then those who can sing would be help
ing those who are not so fortunate. By
this method the choir would be, as it
should, the musical training school of
the church. The church would sing in
spite Of itself, and those who were not
singers would hum the tune,

Military Discipline.

A group Of army men were discussing
the other day, says a Washington cor
respondent Of the New York Tribune,
the reverence which Gen. Sheridan at
ali times exhibited toward Gen. Grant.
To illustrate this trait of Gen. Sheri-
dams one of the company related the
following incident:
"Gen. Grant and Gen. Sheridan were
travelling in a steamboat together, ac-
companied by other officers. Among
the passengers was a young English
man who frequently used to take hand
at poker with the distinguished travel
ers. The limit usually was SO cents.
On one occasion the Englishman wanted
to get up to light cigar. and requested
Gen. Sheridan to play his haod, which
consisted of four jacks pat, for him. On
tne Englishman's return he asked how
his hand had PANIED out.
"Oh,' said Sheridan, the General
[meaning Grant bet me so cents. and I
called him and won you the pot
"The Englishman looked at him in
amazement. and then suffered OUT

His Fee.

From the Chicago Tribune.
"Dr. Fyll, you have earned my lasting
gratitude: Without your skilltul, un-
firing and watchful care | feel that I
should never have recovered We are
indebted to you, O SO deeply"
The beautiful young convalescent,
pale, but never more lovely, was sitting
up for the first time since her illness
had taken favorable turn. She leaned
back in her eaey chair, comfortably
propped up with pillows, and looked
with ardent gratitude at the young ply
stefan who had called to make his last
professional visit.
Don't speak Of it in that way, Miss
Winnie,..' he replied. ''In your happy
recovery [ feel more than repaid tor
the exercise of my highest skill"
But it would be unprofessional to let
your feelings be a sufficient remunera-
tion," rejoined the fair Miss Winnie,
with gay smile. "There must be fee
besides, and think you need not fear
to make it large one."
The young physician moved forward
on his chair.
& fear if I should include in nv bill
one item that-that occurs to me, Miss
Winnie, it would be thought presump-
that Isl mean-axofb itant," be ssid
with voice that tremDled and a chin

bic.

she said, still smiling brightly. "that
YOU can ask too great compensation for
your
winnie Greenup ~ exclaimed the
young man, hoarsely, "talk not to me of
fees What are fees to me? | want
something infinitely more valuable than
sordid dollars and cents. I-I-I-
Winnie, may ask your father"
Certainly DIR. PyIl," said Miss
Greenup, haughtily. ''Papa is the one to
present the account to, OF course. He
always settles the bills. Good morning,
sir"
In the privacy of his Office down
town d few minutes later, the young DIR.
Pyle might have been seen, making out,
with most determined expression of
countenance. a Doctors bill that will
simply paralyze Papa Greenup when he
sees it.

The Blessing of Strong Nerves

Is recoverable, not by the use of mineral seda-
tives, but by recourse to effectual tonic treat
ment. Opiates and the like should only be used
as auxiliaries, and then as sparingly as possible
Vigorous nerves are quiet ones, and the most
direct way to render them so is to reinforce the
vital energies. That sterling 'invigOrant, Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, will be found all-sufi-
Gent for this purpose, since it entirely removes
1mpediments to thorough digestion and assimi-
lation of the food so that the body is insured
its due amount of nourishment and consequent
ly of stamina Rheumatic tendencies and affec-
lions of the kidneys and bladder are also coun-
teracted by the Bitters which is besides pleas
ant medicinal stimulant, infinitely purer than
the raw eNcitants of commerce, which react in
juriOusly uponthe nervous system.
