these new works at % per day, and the work

smaller corporations are equally, if not

MILLvILLE, Pa, August 29.-John P.

operating the Whitney Glass Works, Glass
boro, having returned from Europe to-day,
Vice President Dooling and other officers of
the American Flint Glass Workers Union
had a conference with him in regard to run
ming the flint department with union blow
ers. Mr.. Whitney told the officials that the
flint blowers at his works went out last sea-
son to aid the green blowers, and that he
did not intend to run under union regula-
tions again until the green glass troubles
were settled.
"But you need not take any encourage
ment from this remark" he said, because
I never expect to settle with the union green
men," This would seem to settle conclu-
sively that both flint and green departments
at the Whitney works, Glassboro, will run
with non-union workmen this blast.

THE POLICE SUMMONED.

The people became SO frightened that they
climbed out on the portico and stood there
until the police. who had been telegraphed
for. arrived. Blunt was arrested after a
struggle and locked up. No one appeared
against him and he was fined SIS only.
Meantime, Mrs. Engard had requested Mrs.
Dangerield to leave her honse The lat
ter's eyes were black and blue, and Blunt's
finger marks were plainly discernible
around her throat.
She was nearly crazy and begged every
one to say nothing about the assault or
about her. With her trunk she was driven
to the depot and took the first train to
Jersey City. Blunt disappeared after leav-
ing the court room. To-day his stable
was shipped to Sheepshead Bay, and
he has probably gone there too. Mrs. Fitz-
hugh and Mrs. Carroll, who are still at the
Curlew, says that the Blunts are one the

very intimate with their families and with
the Dangerfelds. But that "Ned" is the
black sheep of the family. He is reported
to be very wealthy.

LEADING CHILDREN TO PRAY.

One of the most delightful offices Of
mother is that of leading the minds Of her
little children up to God, as Father. Early
should they be taught that He takes care Of
them every day, and keeps them, safely
every night; that He knows when they are
sick, and pitie5 them; that it is He that
cures them. and gives them kind parents to
love and watch over them. They should be
taught short prayers such as they will per-
fectly understand; and be encouraged to
offer some one of them morning and even
ing. And often, ut these times. will the
heart of the devout mother be gladdened by
the intelligent inquiries of the little chill
dren about the great God. When they
have reached the age of learning these SIM
pie prayers, O new and efficient means lsPut
into the hands of parents for influencing
them to a right course Of conduct. The
often repeated sentiment, that God loves the
good and is displeased with the wicked, will
make an impression upon their docile
minds. Improve the opportunity, when
they have been guilty of misconduct, to tell
them that they have wicked heart and will
never be really good until they have new
one They should be persuaded to 90 alone
and confess their sin, and to ask their heay-
enly father to make them better. The fire.
auent reference of their sins and troubles to
this source, will powerfully tend to teach
that happiness is inseparable from love and
obedience Of God. 1t will make them feel
the importance Of prayer, and prepare them
TO understand their need Of Saviour

The man who thinks to serve God and
mammon, and divide his time and ener-
gies between the Lord and the devil, the flesh
and the Spirit, will be found to have made
grand mistake. No man can be slave Of
two masters. He must have one absolute
ruler and owner. When man has given
himself to the Lord he has nothing left for
anybody else. The world and the flesh and
the devil must stand aside, self must be de-
MED, and Christ must have all. II would thou

o land, so full of breaking hearts,
O'erhung with shadows binding,
Where half the world the other half
In sheet and shroud are winding.
We stretch our eyes away-away
Past this domain of sorrow,
And catch the tintings on the clouds
OF an auroral morrow.
Each year We see the brightest leaves
In autumn's hand the sereSt;
Each year the bird-notes die away,
Which rang for us the clearest;
Each day the cruel mouth Of Death
The lie to life is giving,
And yet We call this fading land
The region of the living!
o angel man, whose silver hair
Is like the ring Of glory!
God bless you for that precious truth
Our hearts repeat the story;
And while We sit in vacant homes
Heavens golden bells are pealing
Along the darkness of the night,
Making the same revealing.
