THE REPUBLICAN LABOR LEAGUE.
Platform Set Forth by the New Pauy-Iu
President Here.

Platform Set Forth by the New Party-Its
President Here.
President A. A. Carlton, Of the recently
formed Republican Labor League" il at
present sojourniDg at the Home Hotel. He
is here to make survey of the field and
ascertain how local sentiment is apt to
travel regarding the league. He says he Is
very we'll satisfied with the prospects of the
movement, and excepts to establish branch
office here within short time.
Tie league claims to be wing or branch
ofthe Republican party, and believes that
it will in time crystalize the sentiment of
labor organizations, on the questions which
1t is agitating for redress, into such solid
and veighty mass as must count for con-
siderable factor with aspIrants for political
honors. Its platform declares for reform for
labor by the ballot; the maintenance of q
protective tariff; no surplus of labor, even If
immigration be restricted to prevent it;
trusts and combinations must not encroach
upon the rights of the people; demand for
legislation to improve the condition of the
wage-workers; progress and improvement
and equal rights, equal burdens and equs
privileges for all.

SHE KISSED THE SINNER.
How a Tailor. Made Girl Paid Him for

How a Tailor. Made Girl Paid Him for
Shining Her Boots.
She was dspper little tailor-made girl,
and as she walked. up Fifth avenue yester-
day afternoon, holding her silk umbrella in
the latest fashion and gaily chatting with a
male companion, she was the cynosure of
all eyes and many young dudes standing at
the postofice corner would have given any
thing to exchange places with the young
man at her side The couple crossed Fifth
avenue, and at the Pennsylvanis Railroad
ticket Office stopped. The object of their
remarks seemed to be a young and none
too-cIean newsy and bootblack.
The young lady's escort smiled, as if in
answer to something, and then called the
"shiner" over to him. The young arab was
tickled at the prospect of getting job, but
he almost fell over in his astonishment as the
tailor-made girl stuck out her foot The lat
ter was encased in a neat-fitting boot, which,
if the truth be said, did not have a polish
glossy enough to reflect the character of the
owner. The "shiner" seemed to be
struck all in a heap, but as soon as he
recovered from his astonishment set to work
on the neat-ftting boots. When the job
had been completed the young man, who
the lady, laughingly asked the arab what
the charge was. The "shiner" replied that
be wouldn't charge de lady nothin'," and
asked her tor one OF the flowers she wore in
her corsage. She willingly gave it. and, stoop-
Ing down, kissed the young gamin before
the latter had chance to get away. The
color of his face was only equaled by the
hue of bis hair as he broke away and ran
down Smithfeld street. 1t was fully half
an hour before he came back. The young
lady lives in Allegheny.

rHE WORLD GROWING BETTER



Rev. G. &. Locke Argues That Chrisiianity is
Making Rapid Progress.
Rev. Charles Edward Locke, pastor OF the
Smithfeld Street Methodist Episcopal
Church, delivered an eloquent discourse last
evening on the subject, us the World
Getting Better ?" Rev. Mr.. Locke selected
for his text /. Kings, xix, IL: go forth
and stand upon the mountains" He argued
that civilization went hand in hand with
evangelical Christianity. Said the rev.
erend gentleman: "There is not q
civilized nation on the earth
where the banner OF Christianity waves, in
which slavery exists. Prior to Christian
civilization man was but the vassel OF super
cause of the aggressiveness of the Christian
church. The trouble has been caused by a
lot of pessimists. who prophesy evil and
who predict that Christianity is losing
ground. This is not true" continued Mr..
Locke. "In 1910 there was one
Christian out of every IA persons in the
United States. In 1890 there is one Chris
tisn for every four and one-half persons In
the q nited States, thus showing that evan
gelical Christianity is numerically lncreas-
Ing"
The burthen of the speakers argument
was to show that Christianity was being
rapidly spread throughout all heather
lands, and he added: "All heather
religions except .Mohammedanism are
surely losing their grip" From
this he reasons that the world is getting
better, and that by the year 1900 there will
not be an island in the sea or part of the
globe where the people will not have had
an opportunity to embrace the Christian
faith. The subject of Mr. Locke's dis.
course next Sunday will be "Some Danger
Signals"

PASSENGERS SEVERELY INJURED.

Another of Those Accidents at the Citizens
Traction Power House.
An accident occurred yesterday on the
Citizens Traction line that resulted in sew
eral persons being slightly injured and one
quite severely. The accident occurred
about o'clock in the afternoon, and was
caused by the grip of car No. 10Y running
into the vault at the'pow house on Penn
avenue, between Thirty-third and Thirty
fourth streets. The car was crowded with
passengers. and number were thrown vio-
lently from their seats to the floor of the car
by the force of the shock.
Among these were Mrs. Paisley, who
lives in the Eighteenth ward. She was cut
in several places about the face and head.
Miss Ella Dwyer was knocked insenslble,
and, it is thought is internally injured.
She was removed to DR.. Clarke's Office,
where consciousness was restored, and she
was then driven in a buggy to her home on
Butler street, near the Sharpsburg bridge.
Her condition is considered as serious. The
injuries of Mrs. Paisley were dressed in a
drugstore. A number Of other passengers
were slightly cut and bruised, but their
names could not be ascertained.

LOOKING TO LABOR DAY.
b Arrangements for a Big Turn Out Progress

Arrangements for a Big Turn Out Progress
ing Satisfactorily.
A meeting of representatives from the
Building Trades was held in the Trades
headquarters yesterday, to further arrange
ments for a general turnout on this day
week-Labor Day. Everything seems to be
going on smoothly for proper observance
of the day, and the indications are that
Pittsburg will, at length, show other cities
that she has due appreciation or the holi-
day. An interesting feature yesterday of
the arrangements made was tie pres
eGce in the hail of several ladies represent
. ing the Progressive Union, the Southside
organization of young women. 1t is under
stood that the uEion will take active par
ticipation in the days proceedings, and
make a characteristic display on floats.
This idea is in line with similar demonstra-
tions in Eastern cities, where the young
women engaged in the tailoring and other
businesses ply their trade on properly
equipped floats during the progress OF the
procession.
The building trades have determined to
do their duty by the day, and it remains for
craftsmen of other trades to take as active
part in the arrangements to insure a thor
oughly successful demonstration. So far
all the organizations invited to take part
have not signifed their intentions, so that
1T cannot be said whether general turnout
OF the organizations Will ensue The day is
legal holiday, and so very lew trades have
any excuse for holding aloof. Contingents
from outside towns will swell the number
In parade, and it is expected that probably
10000 or Is, 900 people will march in pro-
ceSsion.

other two were Mr.. and Mrs. James Milton,
