THE POPE'S VIEWS
He Discusses the Labor and Other
Questions.

The London Herald prints the re-
port of an interview with the Pope.
In discussing the labor question, his
holiness dwelt upon the necessity of
improving the moral condition OF both
workmen and employers. He said he
intended to have a committee in every
diocese in the world whose duty it
would be to call toilers together on
every fast and rest day and discuss
their duties and teach them and in
spire them with true morality. Sound
rules of life, said the pope, must be
founded upon religion. The com
mittees which he proposes to form are
to consist of workmen or those sym
pathizing with workmen, and bishop
is to be ut the head of each committee.
Referring to the subject OF European
disarmament, he said military life
surrounds thousands of young men
with violent and immoral Influences,
and brushes and degrades them.
Armies drain the countries OF their
wealth, withdraw labor from the soil.
overtax the poor, set people against
each other and intensity national
jealousies. They are anti-christian.
The doctrine of arbitration as accepted
by America is a true principle, but
most of the men controlling Europe do
not desire the truth.

KENT OUTLAWS
They Barricade Themselves and
Defy the Militia.

A special from Harlan Court House,
KY, says u deadly fight occurred at
1:20 o'clock, April 18th, seventeen
miles east of there,i in the Black noun
tains, between detail of state troops,
consisting of sixteen rrlvates, and
about thirty outlaws, who were fortl-
fled in an old barn. Five of the
soldiers were wounded. IL is not known
how many Of the outlaws were killed,
as they still have possession of the
barn. A corporal was sent in after
achievements and knows but little,
as he left Immediately after the firing
began. The troops have the barn
surrounded and it will be impossible
for those on the inside to make their
escape, and the only two roads which
lead from the place of action are cut
off by pickets, who are instructed to
allow no one 10 pass toward town, as
it was thought best to keep the news
OF the conflict from the people about
there until after reinforcements had
reached the place. Captain Gather,
who is the commanding officer, was
informed that a body of lawless men,
some of whom had been indicted for
various otfenses, were fortified against
the law at the above mentioned To-
cality and had refused to surrender TO
the civil authorities. He was asked
for detail Of his men to go out with
some of the civil officers for the pur-
pose OF arresting them, and he at once
sent sixteen privates, in charge of
Sergeant Pullian and Corporal Blantin.
They expected to find the men in the
house near the barn, but instead were
fired upon from The barn. The attack
was not looked for from that point,
and came so unexpectedly that it de-
moralized the soldiers for minute or
two, but they soon rallied and sur
rounded the barn and began firing into
it from every direction, when it was
thought best to cease action and hold
the fort until reinforcements arrived
with more ammunition. 1t is believed
that Il severe fight will take place as
soon as additional troops reach the
place, for the outlaws are we'll armed
with Winchester rifles and swear they
will not surrender, and the soldiers
are determined and want revenge for
those who have been shot down. No
further particulars are obtainable.

TO SAVE THE BUFFALO.
Land to be Set Apart in "No Mans
Land" Tor this Purpose.

The committee in Congress on pub
lie lands has authorized a favorable
report on the Peters bill setting aside
100 acres in No Mans Land and reserv-
ing the same from settlement for 20
years to enable Buffalo Jones'" OF
Garden City, Kan, to propagate buff
faloes thereon. A clause for appropri-
ating 100000 for fencing and other
expenses is stricken out and Jones
must bear the full expenses. Chair.
man Payson OF the committee said:
ut is by no means cerlain that this
bill will pass the house, for there was
opposition to it in the committee, but
in view OF II sentimental idea Of prop
agating buffaloes and improving stocls

thought it best to report it to the house
and let them fight it out on the noor.n

The Green. Barker Eiopement Case
Ends Very Prosaicaily.

The climax of the Groan- Barker
elopement case. which created some
excitement in Bloomington, H., sever
al months ago was reached at Chicago.
Lester Green was at one time acting
mayor Of Blooming ton. He had u fam
lily. Mrs. Barker was the wife Of II
well-to-do engineer who gave her u
liberal allowance OF money, out Of
which she managed 10 save in the
course OF several years about $l,i0O.
She and Green became mutually infat-
uated, and taking the money fed to-
gether. They went TO Whatcom.

OF villagc--a house here and u store

age. People were scarce. too, Those
who were on tho one broad street were
the kind that grow among sage brush
and grease wood--tall, heavily jnwed
men. with an awkward swing TO their
gait and their faded clothing and high
hcoled boots despatched with mud, A
lean, skulking dog prowled along tho
road. aud three heavily saddicd aud
branded ponies were tethercd near the
Ark saloon, There were ESQ people In
tho village but every body who lived
there knew the population exceeded
COO
On this cold afternoon five OF the In.
habitants sat In front OF the Ark saloon.
Four OF them were men who wore soft
hats and colarless shirts. Their coarse
hands and rugged faces showed that
they toiled out Of doors-herding cattle

The dispute had been going on for nn
hour or more. with delirlous talcs OF
gun feats and terrific expressions Of pro.
family. when the mite OF n child stole tim
idly up to the big man. For moment
the child was not noticed. The wind
picked up the ragged hem OF her dress
aud whipped IL about her legs, and the
big sun. glowing with the richness OF u
solferino disk, made the tears In tho
child's great eyes shine as ono has seen
ripping water glitter In q stream OF sun
