TIE FEDERATION OF LABOR.
The Call for the Annual Convention at
Chicago.


Chicago.
The thirteenth annual convention Of
the American Federation of Labor will
be held in the Common Council Cham
Der, Chicago, December IL, commencing
al 10 a. m. The official call says:
in calling this convention your at
tention is directed to the grave situa-
ton which confronts the toiling masses
of our country. In land varied in
climate, Astounding in wealth, all ma
ture smiling upon it, with willing hands,
we vet see hundreds of thousands Of our
fellow human beings anxious to fashion
and produce wealth, the necessities ana
the luxuries of life, yet unable to find
an opportunity OF being so employed.
"Never in the history Of the world
has SO large number Of people vainly
sought for an opportunity TO earn a
livelihood and contribute 10 the support
of their fellows. In society where
such abnormal conditions prevail there
must OF necessity be something wrong
at the basic foundation, and 1t requires
but little study to come to the concluS-
ion that the ownership and control OF
the wealth, of the means Of production,
by private corporations which have no
human sympathy or apparent response
bility, is the cause of the ills and wrongs
bourne by the human family.
Tho right to life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness should be guar
antee that employment, remunerative,
safe, and healtful is accorded to all.
Wherever these rights and guarantees
are denied it becomes those devoted to
the interests Of the people ard the pro-
gress of our race to take such action as
will necessarily make these declara-
tions actualities and not meaningless
phrases. The forthcoming Convention
will afford an excellent opportunity for
the wage-Workers OF our country who
are more directly interested than all
others in the solution of the great prob
lens confronting our people, to declare
for and TO take such action as will crys-
talize, develop and attain the noble
purposes Of our organization.
ITO protest against the violations OF
law, and to the omissions TO enforce
other laws, enacted in the interest Of
the tOiling masses to demand the pass
age Of laws protective and progressive
in their character, TO WELD the bonds
of unity and fraternity more firmly
among the wage.earning classes Of our
country, and'to review the events OF the
past wear, as we'll as to profit by our
experience, are among the matters
which will necessarily come before the
Convention.
"For the ABOVE reasons, as well as
countless others, all affiliated Unions
are cordially and fraternally Invited to
be fully represented st the Chicago
Convention of the a. L. of L."

A GREAT. GOOD WORK.
The Rearne Tabernacle and the Way the
Poor Are Cared Eor.

Interesting meetings were held yes
terday at the Hearne Tabernacle. Kew.
b. C. Bartlebach, who has been secured
at the Tabel Iacle, is an earnest worker,
and addressed large assemolage last
evening. The meetings are growing In
interest and new faces are seen every
evening at the regular nightly SER
vices. The distributors OF suits. 70
the needy are continued, and wear
ing apparel is being received from
the charitable of the city. Ii
persons have clothing, a pair OIL shoes
or anything OF that kind, 1t Will be
thankfully received at the Tabernacle,
as 1t will help some of the city's Needy
to bear their poverty with stronger
heart. In short slime the lunch coun-
ter will be established and suitable
site for it is now being looked up. 1t
will probably be located on the South
Side, on TwentV-frst street. 1t will
probably be so arranged that cent
ticket will entitle the holder to good
cup Of coffee with bread, or a good
lunch for a nickel. These tickets
will be sold to anyone, and the charlta-
BILE persons OF the city VIII
be expected to take large numbers OF
them and distribute them among the
poor, whom they know are in need. 1t
is expected that many thousands OF
these can be sold when the restaurant
is opened. This plan seems an excel
lent one, and is meeting with general
favor. The poor who apply at the Tab
ernacle and are found deserving, are
aided, given something to eat and a
place to lodge. Aid from all parts OF
the city is solicited for the continuing
of the good work.
An evangelist from New York City
will be present at to-nights services.

UNDERWEAR!
What's an underwear fit?

All decent Underwear fits the body-no
trouble about that But-well, say one man in
five has to roll up his sleeves and drawer legs;
another man in five has to get his drawers too big
around so that the legs will go down to his socks
and two more men can't see why their wrists and
ankles are cold
OF course not heartrending grief, just an
annoyance. Our Underwear gets rid Of this an
noyance.
Come, We particular and expert scrutinize,
criticise You Shall say how skillful we are. We
are surrounded by piles of Elegant Clothes like
ed and Domestic Fabrics, we prove from day to
day, from month to month, from year to year,
that the Star Clothing House sells the best of
everything at the lowest prices.

Nicaraguan Revolution.

WASHINGTON. May 1.-The Nicaraguan
revolulionists have practically overthrow
the government and are in complete posses
sion of the Nicaragua canal. A dispatch re-
ceived at the State Department today tells OF
the victorious progress OF the revolutionary
forces and indicates the complete overthrow
of the late administration.
The dispatch received by Secretary Ores.
ham was sent from San Juan del Sur, port
on the west coast of Nicaragua, by Mr.. New
ell, who is consul at Managua, the capital of
the country.
Ii is learned from another authentic source
that the revolutionists are in possession of
the Nicaragua canal, and it was on this in
formation and that contained in the dispatch
from Mr.. Newell that Secretary Gresham
applied to Secretary Herbert for another
vessel to be sent 10 Nicaragua. The Atlanta,
now at New York, has already been ordered
10 proceed to Greytown, on the east coast,
but as the revolutionary movement is nearer
the west coast, in the neighborhood Of the
capital. it was deemed best to dispatch yes.
sci TO that part of the country. Accordingly,
orders were sent by telegraph today to the
commander Of the Alliance, at San francisco,
directing him to proceed at once with his
vessel to point on the west coast. The Al.
lance will probably make her headquarters
at San Juan del Sur. The canal company
has considerable property which might be
damaged, but no fears are entertained at
present

SPORT IN HOWARD.
Trials of Speed and set-too Between Two
Colored Men.

A letter to the Baltimore american says a
crowd of sporting men, numbering ever a
hundred, from Howard, Montgomery, Carroll
and Baltimore counties, gathered al Cooks
vile, in the fourth district of Howard county,
last Saturday to witness trial of speed be-
tween number of local thoroughbred horses,
and also decide the merits in sparring match
between a we'll known colored pugilist from
Glenweod, Howard county, and one of equal
note from Sykesville, Carroll county. Before
the Civil War Cooksville was noted as place
where horse racing was of usual occurrence,
and where the speed of some of the finest
stock in the adjoining counties was tested.
Excepting the boxing contests, which proved
most exhilarating innovation on the older
sports, the scenes of Saturday were a vivid
reminder of the ante-bellun days.
The principal race was for purse of $50,
best out of three beats, distance half a mile.
There were three entries, comprising horse
from Unity, Montgomery county; one from
Cooksville, Howard county, and one from
Carroll county. The COoksville horse was
the winner A number of minor races, for
smaller stakes, were afterwards run. The
prevailing interest seemed to center in the
boxing contest, and on which, it is said, con-
siderable money changed hands. Both the
men were powerful fellows, and showed after
wards in the desperate bouts that they were
not altogether void of science. They had
their managers on hand, and after the rounds
were given the same attention as is given to
any regular prize fighter. In the seventh
round, after several clean knock-downs, the
Glenwood man received blow under the
right ear, which sent him over the ropes. He
was unable to come TO time, and the Sykes
william was accorded the championship. They
fought without gloves.
1t is stated that several boxing contests and
races, in which number of thoroughbreds
will be entered, will take place at Cooksville
in the near future.

summer school for Priests.

There is to be held in Westminster at the
Holy Cross House school for priests from
July 10 to -.
The idea of summer school is not new
one The Concord School of Philosophy and
the Plymouth School of Applied Ethics are
we'll known examples. The design of these
schools is to draw together persons whe are
interested in the subjects treated of and to
furnish special advantages for study. The
summer is chosen as it is time of leisure
with many classes of people, such as professors,
teachers, undergraduates of colleges and 9th
ers. In choosing location great regard is
paid to healthfulness of climate, beauty of
scenery and convenience of access. 1t is at
once evident that Westminster possesses these
elements in high degree. The Order Of the
Holy Cross has undertaken to organize i'll
this city Summer School for Priests. 1t
has secured in the various departments pro-
fessors specially qualified for this work. In
addition to regular courses in Homiletics,
Morals, Liturgies and Catechetical instruc-
ton there will be FIVE lectures by prominent
gentlemen on topics of general interest
Among them will be lecture on "Pauperism
and Crimnality' by Mr.. John Glenn of
Baltimore, an acknowledged authority on
these questions, and one on .Theosophy'' by
Mr.. Woodbury. Lowery of Washington. The
use that can be made of the stereopticen in
Sunday school and Mission work will be ex
planned and illustrated. These lectures will
be in the evening and will probably be open
to the public of Westminster.
1t may be of interest to note that similar
undertaking will be initiated this year in Ok
ford, England, where a fortnights school for
the clergy will be held in August
