The Ex-ConEressman's Family Alarmed
 Oyer His Condition.
 ERIE, Pa., Aug. 6-Ex- Congressman W. L. Scott lies very sick at his resi- dence in this city. His physician is very rsticent, but there can be little doubt but that MT. Scott is suffering from his old stomach trouble.
 Two weeks ago, on the recommends. 8. tion of his physician, he went to the Cambridge mineral springs, but the water. instead of beneflting him, aggra- vated his sickness, and he returned hom @ to take to his bed, from which he has scarcely risen since.
 The members of MT. Scott's family are all here, and though but little is given to the public regarding MT. Scott's con- dition, they cannot disguise their an xiou g concern, nor the conviction that he is a verY sick man.

SEDGWICK,
HIS Bank St, and IDA So. Main St.

The store No 93 Bank street (now 115) which have occupied for the past SIX years being too limited to accommodate the steady increase of trade, necessitated more commolious quarters, consequently have leased for term of years the store directly in the rear (Meigs' new block) and running to South Main street, and have just completed an addition connecting the two stores. making it one continuous room extending from Bank to South Main street, with an entrance on both streets.
 The new store in Meigs' block has been nicely fitted and furnished, making it the most elegant Fine Tailoring parlors in New England, and will be used exclusive y as a Custom Department.
 The front store has been extensively i'm proved and will be occupied as Mems Furnishing Department, making two dis tinct departments and making each de- partment attractive and roomy.
 The Mems Furnishing department is now overhowing with all the novelties of the season. The goods are Fresh, New, De- sirable and Cheap, and as an especial in ducement for those who desire Fancy Shirt for spring l am offering Cluett & Coon's Crown Monarch Shirts which have always been sold for $1.50 at 95cents.
 The Custom Department as usual is stocked with a more extensive and elaborate line than any tailoring establishment in Conn, consisting of all the latest and most desirable Suitings, Overcoatings and Trouserings the market affords, (My trous erings are unusually fne) and no effort will be spared to please. The garments will be turned out in the most approved style, and made by the most skilled work men.
 The public are invited to call and look at my mammoth stock and beautiful store It will be pleasure to show you.

NEWS comes from Newport that is indeed refreshing. On Sunday last the new parochial school building of St Joseph's church in that city, was dedi- cated. The edifice is a beautiful structure and the arrangements for its dedication were most elaborate. This, in itself, is not unusual, but the fact that the school, costing 1000, was the gift of an unknown donor, whose name was to be made public at the exercises, added interest to the event. Various conjectures were made as to who could have given such munificent gift, but all went wide of the mark. The donor was none other than George Babcock Hazard, a Protestant gentleman. The announcement was greeted with ap- plause in which both Protestants and Catholics joined. MT Hazard went to Newport poor man, and by thrift accu- mulated large fortune. Although an active Protestant he has always been liberal enough to see the great good that 1 the Roman church has accomplished. Religious bigotry he drowned upon and by hls action he showed that he had no fear that the Catholic system of educa- tion would conflict with the state. A few such examples as his would dissolve the mists of bigotry that hover over many parts of New England.

THE immigration commissioner has decided that Welsh tin plate workers can be brought to this country under contract without violating the alien con- tract law. A more outrageous decision was never made, but to say nothing of that, which was no more than was ex- pected of republican officials, will some body kindly explain where the benefit to American workingmen comes in in making tin plate in America, if the makers of it are to be imported from Wales? The employment of a large number of Americans in this industry would have furnished at least a sem blance of an excuse for the increase of one dollar a box in the price of tin plate, which will be entirely lacking when it is known that the so-called American tin plate is being made by Welshmen brought to America for that purpose. This decision was so bad that Secretary Foster had seen the wisdom of modify ing it to a certain extent.

GALE IN GREAT BRITAIN.
The English Channel Ravaged-Shipwrecl
and Loss of Life.

The English Channel Ravaged-Shipwreck
and Loss of Life.
LONDON, Nov. 12.-Another furious
southeastern gale is sweeping the
British coasts and is causing an inn
mense amount of damage. From a
number of points already the news has
been telegraphed that ships are ashore
and that their crews are in danger of
drowning or are drowned.
Following so closely upon the many
recent storms which spread death and
destruction on the coasts of England.
Ireland and Scotland, and which have
done an immense amount of damage to
the crops besides flooding whole dis
tricts and destroying railroad embank-
ments, this latest storm is really more
than even the most sanguine British
farmers can pass through without de-
spondency.
To give an entire list of the wrecks
reported this morning would be diff
cult task. A dispatch from Hythe,
Kent SAYS that the French schooner
Edrimi has foundered off that place
and that the vessels captain, his wife
and son were drowned in spite of the
efforts of the life savers, who were en-
abled to take of the rest of the crew.
The captain of the Edrimi, however,
refused to leave the vessel and his wife
and son refused to separate from him,
preferring drowning with the gallant
sailor to being saved without him
The efforts to save the crew of the
| B1envenu, driven ashore at Sandgate,
have resulted in serious loss of life.
The Hythe lifeboat which finally got
afloat after a dozen fruitless efforts,
has been capsized while trying for the
honor of reaching the shipwrecIed
crew of the Rienvenu Several life
savers have been drowned. The exact
details of this disaster have not yet

seems all the more Incredible from the
fact that it goes up in small lunches
One place consumes on an average Tor
the midday lunch to business men L oOo
sandwiches, Is cans of milk, 10 dozen
pastry of various kinds, S5 pies ana
$500 to 2,OOO oysters served IN every
style. Besides these some 500 persons
get not dishes of almost every descrlp-
ton at the lunch counter. Gracious
heavens! Eighty-fve pies represents
$40 pie eaters in one resort among hun
dreds of the kind This is not con-
sidered a great place for pies either
What pity that Superintendent of the
Census Porter did not include in his
stupendous conglomeration OF facts
and fancies some statistics about pies
A carefully arranged tabular statement
of pies and pie eaters Of the United
States would be of more use to the
health authorities and more interesting
to the general readers than a mono

the New York Baker, German trades
paper. Inspector of Police Hubbard,
accompanied by Lieut. Gibbons and a
squad of officers in citizens clothes,
were seen to quietly approach the stage.
They ordered an American flag placed
among the flaming banners.
Instantly there was a profound sem
sation in the motley audience and the
police were Kissed from all parts of the
hall. Mrs. Lucy Parsons, who occupied
a chair in the rear Of the hall, shouted
out:
Hang the murderers of my hus-
band!'
In a second pandemonium reigned,
hundreds of excited men pushed for
ward cursing the officers, and seeming
ly only wanting nod or look from
leader to precipitate a fearful spectacle
of carnage Nevertheless Inspector
Hubbard unfinchingly ordered sus-
pension of the meeting until his COM
mands were obeyed. Through the din
the half hundred police could be seen
placing their hands on their clubs and
revolvers preparatory for fight
which seemed inevitable 1t was
fully ten minutes before order
was restored. The flag meanwhile
had been reluctantly hoisted to a
place over the stage, a proceeding only
accomplished when the officers were
found ready for action and cooler
heads among the excited audience and
| spectators had time to exercise some
| influence.
The meeting had been taken COM
pletely by surprise or else more Sc
rious result might have followed. The
| first the crowd knew of the police be-
| ing present was when Inspector Hub
| bard with his detail entered from a
side door under the stage, having come
| up by private entrance.
When he ordered the hosting of the
| American flag, the tension was some
thing almost unprecedented Hiss
| after hiss and yell after yell frantically
rose until the audience seemed thou
sand demons instead of human beings
| The leaders of the meeting say that
the gathering was only to show regard
| and reverence for the men who per-
| ished while laboring for the benefit of
| humanity.

finally obeyed, another meeting was
