AN IMPRESSIVE BURIAL,

The Bodies of Mrs. G. f. McCIeane and

Many Friends Testify to Their Love for
the Dead People.
That was pathetic funeral in Allegheny
Yesterday afternoon when Mrs. George f.
McCleane and her granddaughter, Majorie
Brown, were taken to their last resting
place. There was no show, no long services,
and that led much to impressiveness Of the
occasion, in view of tie sad manner in
which the two had met their deaths.
AT the family residence No. 346 Ridge
avenue. Rev. w. r. Mackay held a short
funeral service. There was large gather
ing of friends of the family in the parlors
just before and after the services. Mr.. Nc
Cleane was able to attend the funeral, but
mad TO be assisted TO and from the carriage
The shock to Mr. McCleane has been so
great that since his arrival from Cincinnati
he has kept his bed.
The body of Mrs. McCleane was in plain
black coffin, and that of. the granddaughter
In one OF white. A long line of carriages
followed the two hearses to Allegheny cem-

IN MEMORY OF REV. ]. DARsIE.
His Allegheny Friends VIII Hold Memo
rial Services Tomorrow.

rial Services Tomorrow,
The First Christian Church, of ALLIE
gheny, will tomorrow morning hold SER
vices in memory of Rev. James Darsie, as
sistant pastor of that church, who was
buried at Braddock on Thursday. MIR.
Darsie was one of the well-known pioneer
preachers of Western Pennsylvania. He
was native Of Scotland, being born at Ed
inburgh, September 13, 1911. His parents
came to America in his infancy, and, after
his fathers death, in 1921, the future home
of the family was in Pittsburg. Mr.. Darsie
became Chr istian at the age Of IL, and two
years later entered the academy of Walter
Scott, a preacher and teacher of emirepce
among the then new religious denomination
known as the Disciples of Christ" Soon
after the lad began to exercise his gifts in
the meetings of the little congregation, and
in a few years became well-known as an
able and faithful proclaimer of the gospel.
AT the time OF his baptism the people known
rs Disciples" were not over 500 in number
in the United States. Now they rank fifth
in number among the great religious bodies
of American Professionalism, being not less
than 800, 900. With the exception of a few
years Mr. Darsie'S work as a minister was
spent in Western Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Darsie left large family of children
snd grandchildren 10 mourn him. Three of
his sons are able preachers of the gospel,
and one of his daughters is the wife of sue
cessful pastor in Cincinnati. His second
wife also survives him, his first being buried
by his side in the Monongahela Cemetery.

Master Workman Kerfoot Says the Clear
field Men May Strike.
Yesterday the Scale Committee Of the
United Mine Workers held meeting be-
hind closed doors. The situation was dis
cussed at length, but the decisions could
not be ascertained. There is danger of the
strike exten ding to other regions.
Ex-Master Workman Kerfoot made the
following remarkable statement on the sub
ject yesterday: 1.-THE strike will certainly
be extended to competing districts, if the
producing companies do not stop furnishing
orders which were really intended for this
region. We have the most positive evil
dence that the operators of the Clearfeld re-
gion are getting slice of the orders as we'll
as the operators of the several West Virgil
MIA felds. They will be invited to refuse to
fill these orders, and in the event OF their
refusal, every employe will be asked to lay
down his tools. The organization of the
United Mine Workers covers both of these
fields, and Will act promptly through the
assistance of the national officers, Messrs.
Rea and Mcbride. The movement has
been under the advisability by our craft for
some time, and unless the coke strike soon
comes to a successful termination, decisive
developments can be expected.

TIE PUBLIC WELFARE.
Subject for Lecture Before the Trades
Council Tonight.

Subject for Lecture Before the Trades
Council Tonight.
Rev. William Robertson will lecture be-
fore the Central Trades Council this even
ing. His subject is 'The Public Welfare
the Chief End of Civil Government"
Mr.. Robertson is fluent talker and is
said to have given the labor question deep
study and thought. The gentleman s idea is
that the law-making powers too often grant
privileges to corporations that are exercised
to the detriment of the people; in tact, the
corporations extend the powers granted them
beyond the limits of law and justice, and
become burdensome and oppressive to their
creators, the people, usurping their rights
and privileges by levying an onerous tariff
upon the consumers OF their products or for
the use of the privileges furnished the pub
lie. Mr.. Robertson maintains that gov
ernment which fails to furnish EN- ployment to
men who desire to work and are deprived of
the opportunity is not discharging its duty
to the people, and should be SO changed as
to accomplish that end.
The Trades Council has arranged for
series of open meetings, such as this one
will be tonight, having adopted this course
for the purpose of awakening the working
men of this city to the necessity of discussing
economic and social questions.

BROKE ITS RECORD AT LAST.
A Railway That for Once Failed to Run on
Schedule Time.

Railway That for Once Failed to Run on
Schedule Time.
The proud boast of Superintendent Rodg-
ers, that the Montour Railway was the only
one in the country which ran on schedule
time, train starting from Imperial and
running to Montour Junction and back the
same day, which boast had become sober
fact and not poetry, is at last relegated to the
waste lumber room of oblivion, along with
the other wrecks that line the shores OF
time. During the early part of the week
not only did trains fail to make connection
with the Pittsbure and Lake Erie, but the
road went into retirement and let Montour
run have full sway. 1t didn't make
much difference, however, for hay is so low
in price that farmers up the valley are not
able to do much riding on railways less than
20 miles long, the owners of which can make
the size of the fare optional.
This railway is the triumph of engineer
ing science. For a considerable portion of
the distance along it, passenger may sit on
the hind car Of train and watch the loco
motive coming head first toward him. 1t is
said the idea was gotten by watching the
progress of snake, which travels by throw
ing its body into convolutions.

James Russell, Benjamin Kane, Thomas

Crehon and Cox who moved an adjournment
to the Glenwood station house on a implica-

party had to put up $40 and costs for the pas

CLEANING OUT CELLARS.

Tho Lack of Gas in the Flooded District
Causes Inconvenience.
Along Penn avenue yesterday in the
flooded district people were busy at work
with hand pumps sucking the last of the
water out of their cellars. A jerky stream
was pouring from the basement of the
Duquesne Theater, and the spasmodic
spurts indicated that the water was about
out. Upstairs Lew Dockstader was anus
ing small audience in his
famous character "Mishts." The
house was warm and comfortable, and
has not been soiled in the least. Manager
David Henderson came to town in the
morning, and was pleased to see that the
pretty theater had not been damaged great
deal, even If the parquet floor had received
costly scrubbIng.
At the Anderson the stationary pump on
Sixth street was throwing out heavy clouds
of black smoke. but the water is almost
gone. Yesterday afternoon it was not down
low enough to allow the fires TO he built
under the boilers, but they expected to have
plenty of steam to-day. The natural gas is
still turned off in the flooded districts, and
this causes the greatest inconvenience. Tho
tireplaces have been changed for coal, and
