HEALING THE UNITARIAN RUPTURE
The Olive Branch Extended by tho Wester
Branch of the Church.

The Olive Branch Extended by tho Western
Branch of the Church.
CHICAGO, May 19.-The most important
item at to-day's meeting of the Western
Unitarians, held in this city, was the passing
of resolutions which close between the
Western branches and those of the other
parts of the United States the rupture
which took place in 1886. These resolutions
were presented by Rev. j. f. Sunderson, of
Ann Arbor, who was one of the first to set
the example of dividing the West from the
other portions Of the country in the matter
of Unitarianism at the Cincinnati Confer
ence in 1885.
The effect of the resolutions was that the
meeting declare 1t to be its common aim
and purpose to promulgate a religion in
harmony with that of all Unitarian Churches
Of the United States. After two hours
discussion the resolutions were passed.
Resolutions were also carried declaring that
the question of granting national aid to the
Worlds Fair should be determined without
reference to Sunday closing, and that a
special messenger should be sent to WASH
ington with a petition to this effect, if
necessary. Another resolution asked for
equal rights for colored and white men.

RICH INDIANS ACT UGLY.
Cherokee Strip Hunter Roughly Handled
by the Civilized Osapes

GUTHRIE, o. T., May 19.-TSpeciaL J.
While Charles McGill was hunting in the
Cherokee Strip he was surrounded by ten
Usage Indians, who bound his arms and
compelled him to hurry along on foot many
mites to their village There he was
kept bound for three days and nights
He slept out of doors in the rain,
was given nothing to eat, and suffered all
kinds of indignities. Twice he was tied to
a stake and painted braves held war dances
around him, the second time cutting off his
hair and piece of his scalp. Finally he
was released, but warned on penalty of
death not to make known his treatment.
He arrived here to-day nearer dead than
alive and told his story Warrants have
been issued for the leading members of the
tribe, and the Government will take steps to
punish the offenders. The Osages are the
richest and most powerful tribe in the
Southwest, and for some months have been
acting very ugly.

exertion he was able to bend the bars of the
cell and reach the corridor Here aid from
outside prisoners evidently came into play,
as hole had been cut In the brick wall
just above Reeds cell. This hole had been
picked out with very clever tools, and all
traces of mortar had been carefully re-
moved. The bricks were then put back in
place, ready to be taken out at any time, as
were the bars of the cell.
1t is not believed that ne had any aid
from the outside tonight, though there is
no doubt that the rope and tools had been
smuggled> into him by friends. The other
prisoners who escaped with Reed are be-
ieved to have made the break only to shield
him in event of a possible hot chase.
No Trace of the Trio Found.
When the news of the escape spread a
crowd gathered about the Jail, and Sheriff
Cherry had no trouble in organizing several
posses to hunt the prisoners down. Up to
l o'clock, however, nothing has been heard
of them, and it Is believed Reed has been
hid by his friends, as he had at least half
an hours start of the Sheriff
Late tonight the County Commissioners
held meeting and offered a reward of $500
for the arrest of Reed, and the county is be-
ing secured for him.
Reed was here awaiting execution for the
murder of Alexander Chappell, at the Bur-
gettstown fair Reed was in love with Mrs
Chappell, and it was shown at the trial that
he had placed bottle OF poisoned whisky
where the husband could reach it. The
trial was very exciting and after receiving
sentence Reed said he would never be
hanged. He was unarmed when he escaped,
but it is believed he is now among friends,
and if caught up with will make desperate
fight.
At $3.50 this morning a telephone message
from Glenwood stated that one of the three
men who escaped from the Washington
county jail was arrested in the Second
precinct and placed in the Fourteenth ward
station house. The prisoner says the other
two are making for Pittsburg

EDITOR HERALD The question of
cleanliness has been more repeatedly
thrashed out of late in the columns Of
your valuable newspaper than any other
subject of modern times and has been
appreciated, for cleanliness gives health
and comfort and is paramount to any other
subject of municipal interest for the
consideration of those whose duty it is TO
properly care for the health Of the COM
munity, l notice, however, that notwith-
standing you have repeatedly called the
attention of our borough officials to the
necessity of keeping our streets and alleys
free from rubbish which breed epidemic
diseases, little or no improvement has been
brought about,
would also call the attention of those
who may be interested to other sources
which contribute towards breeding disease
and that is the piles of ashes and other
refuse lying in the gardens belonging to
people who would feel highly insulted if
you would even hint that they were not
cleanly, not speaking of the unbesrabe
stencil emsnating from the garden houses
which foul the air we are forced to breathe.
A visit throughout the borough will be
sufficient to convince the most skeptcsl
that what have stated is true. Again We
have in Shenandoah property owners who
rent their houses to those who pack four
and sometimes six human beings in one
small room, and at the main door of the
building it is not unusual to find goat pens,
hog pens, and chicken coops for their sur
roundings Is there no remedy to prevent
the overcrowding Of houses in our borough?
Who is to blame? Is there no borough
ordinance that can be enforced to prohibit
such oYercrowding Of houses, and animals

proximity to human beings2
