rades and brother officers of Rutherford B.
Hayes have something mere from him than
letters Of coincidence when the father is
stricken with death. He is often visitor
at the bedsides in sickness, and a present
mourner with the family and comforter
when death comes.
1t will be remembered that ex-President
Hayes has been an intelligent and syste-
matte worker for the education of the
southern freedmen and for prison reform
He is trustee of the Ohio state university
and is an earnest and effective laborer for
the prosperity of that institution He has
given special attention and work to the
subject of industrial education, in which
he is great believer, and of which he is
an earnest advocate. In these and other
fields of practical usefulness he employs
what might be the idle leisure of his re-
tirement.
The Birehard library, pictured in the
cut, was presented to the town of Fremont
by ex-President Hayes. 1t contains large
collection of books and museum of his
torical records. S. f. FAIR

There are several things that look
feasible enough which would suggest
themselves to you at once, but, sir, none
OF them is feasible at all except on one
condition-that both You and your wife

plan is feasible enough. Any plan is
feasible then But how many out of the

this morning called the roll of names Of
200 citizens summoned to serve as posse
to go TO Homestead. Only twenty-three
responded for service. All were prominent
business and professional men. The sheriff
announced that as they were unarmed and
he had no arms to give them, there was no
use of going 10 Homestead, therefore hs
would excuse them for the time being.
When he gets there the strikers will ask
him some questions, among them, il, as re-

tonight by the board of education. Gault
had heretofore intimated that the board
should prepare Worlds fair educational

and recommended that Miss Bowman,

stead of $3.50. He said also that because
of threatened re-arrangement of salaries
teachers were not in a propitious frame of
mind to prepare an exhibit.
The board resented this by declaring
Miss Bowman's position vacant because

asking Gault for plans of an educational

Were the Pinkertons sworn as Deputiesf

PIrrsBURG, July S.-The statements as
to whether or not the Pinker.ons were
sworn as deputies are very conflicting.
Sheriff McCleary says they were not, but
the Carnegie people insist that they were.
T.. Il. Spear. one of the wounded Pinker-
tons, says they were sworn in by Deputy
Sheriff Gray. The latter admits he was
with the party. but asserts that he did not
administer the oath to them. This ques-
ton will be an important one in settling
the question of responsibility.
HARRISBURG, Pa, July s.-A prominent
citizen of Pittsburg passed through Har-
rsburg this morning. He said there was
no question about the Pinkerton meE hav-
ing been properly sent to the Homestead
works, under approval of the sheriff. A
letter was sent by the counsel for Carnegie
Il Co., to the superintendent of the Home
stead mill, placing the Pinkertons under
control of Chief Deputy Gray. This letter,
he SAYS, was read to Sheriff McCleary, who
approved the arrangements. They were
regular deputies and so recognized.

PIrTsBURG, July s.-A startling rumor
is being whispered about the south side
tonight 1t is to the effect that as soon as
an armed force appears on the ground at
Homestead dynamiters who have been
employed will be prepared to hurl bombs
into the mills, and an effort made to destroy
the entire plant. The reliability of the ru-
NOR is doubted. Every labor organization in
Allegheny county is holding meetings and
adopting resolutions of sympathy. offer
ing moral and financial aid. and COM
mittees are being appointed to act with
committees from Homestead. The matter
of combined action on the part of labor
organizations is being discussed.
