WORDS OF WISDOM.

ONLY about one prayer in Thousand
offered in church has any real meaning
in it.
THE right kind of a good man is all
the time telling somebody something
about God.
THE love that men have for little sins
is the same kind of love that devils have
for big ones.

Death of Mrs. Paul,

The remains of Mrs. j. w. Paul, of
Dothan, Ala, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
w, I. Arlington, of this city, arrived
here on last Saturday for burial. The
death of this young vie was peculiarly
sad one, in that one 50 J oun. and in Joy
full anticipation of Il long and happy life
should be cut off SO suddenly. Mrs.
Paul was model wife, and the bereaved
husband has the heartfelt sympathies of
all of our people in this sad and great
loss She passed peacefully away
to that Father who watches over his
flock. Then, loved ones, weep not, for

MI. Peek has voluminous scrap book.
and the anecdotes that he used with con-
summate skill and profusion indicate
that he has carefully studied several
books that have been prepared for the use
OF circus clowns, and minstrel end men.
Mr., Peek is certainly we'll pleased with
his own powers of eloquence, as he sneer-
ingly referred to the democratic speakers
who have met him, and elegantly ex-
claimed:
"Consarn EN-, 1 amt afeerd of none
of en-"
He fed the flames of discomfort among
the negroes by telling them that their
poverty was because they did not Get
enough for what they made, and that the
price paid for their labor was not enough.
Among his many absurd statements
were lhat the democratic party was re.
sponslble for every law passed by con
gress within the last thirty years, and
that currency in circulation today was
only 50 per apita His speech was in
good humor and was enjoyed by the
democrats as well as the third partyites.
Colonel Peek received liberal applause
throughout his speech. He made no ar
gument, however, his speech being com
posed of bold assertions backed up by
anecdotes, some ofthem being decidedly
of the vulgar order.
he is by no means a dull speaker, while
he lacks great deal of being a strong
one.
Significant Event.
One of the significant events of the day
was d republican standing at the door
urging the people to stay and hear Peek.
All Satisfied.
The democrats were we'll pleased with
the discussion and the third partyites
seem to be satisfied, SO all parties are
serene.
A Grand Day.
Altogether t was grand day for de-
mocracy in Terrell. The Democrats are
proud of their party, and will roll up a
big majority on election day. There is
no doubt about that.

A POLICEMAN DESERTED.

Pretty Mrs. Ketter Disappears From Her
Home and Leaves DoIeful Letter.
After year of welded life, Nettie, the
wife of Police Officer Joseph Ketter with
out explanation deserted him. The officer
says he went to his home on Federal street
last Saturday morning after being on duty
all night and found his house deserted.
His wife was in the habit of visiting her
folks at Brookville frequently, and suppos-
ing she was paying them a visit, Ketter
thought little OF her absence
When Monday came and she had not re-
turned or communicated with him, Ketter
became anxious. Making an investigation,
heltound, to her astonishment, that his wife
had taken all his clothes aud belongings
In bureau drawer he found . letter signed
by his wife, informing him that she had
left him for good. No reason was given.
but he was informed that if he desired to
communicate with her regarding their
household goods he could do so BY writ
ing her name on the envelope and leav-
ing the address blank, the letter to be
stamped and mailed as any other letter.
This implied that some person in the post
Office was acting in collusion with his wife
to keep her whereabouts unknown to Ket-
ter, and he is now investigating to find out
how she could receive a letter without an
address, Postmaster Mexican will be called
on to assist in the Investigation.

Three SOuthside Boys Arrested for Making
Midnight Assault-They Attacked and
BrutaIly Beat q Man on His Way Home
All Old Offenders.
Reilly Burns, James Butler and Harry
Mahoney, three Southside boys, are in Jail
| on charge Of aggravated assault and bat
terry preferred by Michael Mitensiner.
They will be given hearing to-day before
Judge Succop. The boys were taken from
their beds Tuesday night and lodged in
the Twenty-eighth ward police station. In
default of bail they were sent to Jail
yesterday.
The assault for which they were arrested
was one of peculiar brutality. Early last
Sunday morning, it is alleged, they lay in
wait for Michael Mitensiner at the head of
South TweLty-seventh street, and as he
passed along on his way home attacked and
beat him in a terrible manner. One of the
boys knocked him down, while the other
beat and kicked him until his clothes were
nearly torn off and he was covered with
blood. He was left on the street uncon-
scious.
After laying there for some time the as
saulted man came to and managed to get
home. He was unable to leave his home
for day or two, but on last Tuesday went
before Judge Succop and made information
against his assailants. There had been bad
blood between them and he had easily recog-
nized them when the attack was made. He
was still suffering from the effects OF the as
sault and was weak from the loss of blood.
Wednesday night soon after 9 o'clock
Officer Brown went home, changed his
clothes and went out TO capture the boys
He waited until they had gone home and to
bed: He caught Burns shortly after mid
night and the other two were sent to the
station house two hours later.
The prisoners are about II years old and
are supposed to belong to gang that has
caused so much trouble in Brownstown and
the Southside for several months past
Frank Shay, now serving term in the
penitentiary, belonged to the same crowd.
The police have been trying to break up
the gang for some time, but have only par
tally succeeded. Burns is said to have
served term at Morganza and all are well
known to the police.

WILL DECIDE TODAY.

The Allegheny Street Railway Officials to
Meet and Probably Combine.
The stockholders of the Manchester
Traction Company will meet to-day to de-
eide whether the consolidation scheme with
the Pleasant Valley line shall be carried
out At to-day's meeting the question
on which vote will be taken
is whether the capital stock shall be in
creased from s.. 600, 900, the present capital
ization, to 81, ,OOO, 900. If the majority vote
affirmatively. and there seems no reason to
doubt but they will, the next point to be
decided will be whether the Pleasant Valley
line shall be leased. The Board of Directors
must be authorized to carry the scheme into
effect
The Manchester Company's charter and
ordinances authorize it to lease and operate
other lines. The Pleasant Valley
Company is capitalized at 81, 400, 600
By the consolidation scheme proposed
it is figured the value of the line
will be increased to 100000. The ratio
of the old stock to the new has not
been definitely fixed, but it is ex-
pected that for each seven shares of their
old stock the Pleasant Valley stockholders
will receive ten shares in the consolidated
company.
A meeting of the Pleasant Valley stock
holders authorizing its directors to carry
out the scheme will be necessary before the
deal can be contaminated.

A conference was held yesterday at the
rooms of the Amalgamated Association, No.

great weight in bringing about a settlement
of the present strike in the Carnegie mills

mills at Homestead, Twentv-ninth and
Thirty-third streets and Beaver Falls at
tended. There were also a number of the
officers of the Amalgamated Association
present President Gompers, of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor. had been sent for,
and met with them to discuss the situation.
The conference was held with closed
doors and lasted throughout the afternoon.
Every member present participated in the
discussion and expressed his opinion on the
outlook. The advisability of placing a
boycott on the product of the Carnegie
mills was one of the questions considered.
After q thorough discussion it was resolved
to hold the matter under advisement for q
few days The general sentiment of those
present was favorable to such a move, and
should it be done it will be indorsed BY the
Federation, so that all the trades embraced
by this organization would be amenable to
the order. The subject will be taken up
and decision 10 expected to be reached
within q week.
President Gompers was seen after the
conference, and when asked as to the pros
poets for the Amalgamated Association

The eclipse to-day will be distinctly no.

that can be observed during the eclipse are
numerous. By observing the sun and the
shadow an idea of the moons tremendous
velocity can be gained from them. Her
actual rate in orbit is nearly 2, 100 miles an
hour, but this is apparently reduced to ], 800
miles by the earth's rotation in the same
direction. On account of the source of
light being no longer circular during the
eclipse the images of Light; such as that
passing through foliage, which were before
circular, will become of crescent form. The
quality Of the light during the eclipse will
be more like limelight than sunlight

servatory, when asked about the eclipse
said: 81 will take time upon it, but it is
impossible to get view of the corona I
have some computations relating to the
phenomenon which, with this sketch, may
be interesting, made by Prof. Breading
Speer, graduate student of astronomy at the
Allegheny Observatory. Although the
method employed is only an approximate
one, the times of contact are probably cor
rect to within one minute, which is suffi-
ciently accurate for all practical purposes
of observation.
''The moon will first appear to touch the
edge of the sun at II hours 5S minutes A NJ,
or only two minutes before noon by Eastern
time, at q point 26H degrees west of the
north point on the suns limb. An observer
not provided with telescope will probably
not be able to see the dark edge of the
moon until some time after this.
Darkest at 1:29 p. M.
'The eclipse will then gradually increase
until log P. NJ, when the moment OF
greatest observation is reached. At this
time about six-tenths (0.59) of the suns
diameter will be hidden. The moon mov.
ing eastward in its orbit the eclipse will
then diminish and end at 2:59 p M. East
