AN Excellent sermon by Rev. DR.. sWope
Yesterday forenoon.
The sermon delivered by Rev. DR.. r.
Rush swope at St. Matthew'S P. E.
church yesterday morning was an excel.
lent one. The subjst discussed was,
sabbath Labor and Neglect OF the
Soul" He said, among other things:
A large percentage Of the business men
toll hard through the week and on the
Sabbath day go to their offices, answer
correspondence, look over their books
and compare the weeks business with
that Of proceeding weeks. Then in the
afternoon they talk business with their
iellow.merchants, carefully read trade
papers relating to their affairs, thus
giving the soul no relaxation whatever
and no spiritual exhileration. He re.
viewed the excuses given by some for
non.attend4uce al church, that the
sermons were too long or TOO short, the
church too cold or oVerheated, or that
a man whom they did not like was a
pewholder, and various other excuses,
and closed with an eloquent argument
for more spirituality.

AN AUSTRIAN SuOT

BY the Toll Keeper ON the Ohio end OF the
Union Brldge-rwo Versions Of the
AFFAIR.
Miladin Munyas, an Austrian, was
shot in the left shoulder and had big ear
split by Summer Cochran, toll keeper on
the Martins Ferry end Of the Union
railroad bridge, on Saturday afternoon.
Cochran tells one story and the Austrian
another.
Mr. Cochran, Who'll Is quiet, peaceable
-. .1an, and attends to his own business,
says that Munyas, accompanied by an.
other man, appeared Ot the toll house
about 8 o'clock, presented monthly
tickets and had them punched. They
were intoxicated and boisterous, and
Cochran told them to go on and keep
quiet, there being some ladies near.
The two AustIians used abusive
Language and showed fight, and Cochran,
procuring his revolver and mace, shut
the door and approaching the men, told
them TO 20 on over the bridge or go
back down the stairs.
Munyas struck at Cochran, who in
turn used his club. Munyas then drew
his revolver and shot at Cochran, who
returned the shot.
The Austrians then ran across the
bridge and Munyas fell down the second
stairway on the Wheeling side.
Cochran says he fred his revolver to
let them know that he, too, had a gun,
and did not know that he had shot the
man until so informed latet..%
Munyas and his friend went to their
home, den in North Wheeling, and
DR.. Ulrich was called.
Munyas says the toll.keeper punched
three holes instead OF two. Mnnyas
complained about 1t, as he only had to
punch two holes. The toll.keeper told
him to buy new card for one dollar.
Munyas objected, as he had already paid
for one. He saya Cochran then Bwore
at him, and hit several times with his
mace, and, fearing he would be killed,
he hurried over the bridge. He says he
did not have revolver, aud Cochran
did all the shooting, and that he was
trying to put his pipe in his pocket when
shot.
Officers Terrill and Lukens went to
the lodging OF tho Austrian Saturday
evening and got the revolver. Yester.
day the mark made by the Austrisn's
bullet was found on a post near where
Mr.. Cochran stood. Nor is this all the
evidence, II any more is required, to
prove that Munyas fired first, for several
nao,lo uaus tho affair and nUraa that ha
did 60. Engineer Stewart, at the Top
mill, shouted to Cochran after Munyas
fred, "stoot him! Why don't you
shoot him2"
The Austriars yesterday intimated to
the police that they would be willing to
settle the matter il the doctors bill is
paid. A representative OF tho company
says there will be no settlement. Mum
YES will be prosecuted, and the company
proposes To protect it's attaches and pc.
destrians on the bridge from similar dis
order in the future.
