wAsHINGToN, Aug 27-An unwelcome
house warming was given the Knights of
Pythias, cncamped in the white city" of
tents around the Washington monument
yesterday afternoon. 1t came In the form
of a fierce thunder storm, which swept
over the city almost without warning
and then settled into "a steady rain until
sunset.
Several tents were dismantled by the
sheets OF rain which beat against them,
and the lightning was unpleasantly sharp.
All OF the discomforts incidental TO tho
storm Were accepted in a hilarious mood
by the Knights, however, after the first
drenching wave Of rain had passed over.
There were reunions and cheers for the ar

"a martial regulation being enforced. Three
thousand men slept on the light cots under
canvas last night

NEW York, Aug o7-Fifteen hundred
persons assembled at Prohibition park,

McGlynn discourse on "A Model Com.
monwealth." Preceding his regular ad-
dress, he gave by request prelude upon
Mgr. Satolli's confirmation of Bishop Wat
terson's famous order
AT the meeting at the park a week ago,
the question was asked II the importance
and seriousness of the ablegate's utter
ances against the saloons were not over
estimated, and IL was also asked II single
representative Catholic could be named
who was opposed to the saloon.
In introducing Dr. McGlynn the utter
ances of Archbishop Ireland, Bishop
Michaud of Vermont and Bishop Messner

Satolli's position Father McGlynn said
there was danger of magnifying Mgr
Satolli's letter beyond the intention of the
writer and beyond it's real effect.

IL that their churches, families and busi-
ness should be SO conducted as to be no oc-
casion of sin.
The letter of the apostolic delegate had
no more force than the order of the bishop
Of Columbus, but IL did not require great
perception to understand how far reaching
would be its effect. The letter plainly in
sinuates that IL each bishop i'm the United
States should issue the same orders as had
Bishop Watterson, and Mgr Satclli
should be appealed to for a reversal of that
order, that he would give the same answer
1t would have an effect in encouraging
the Catholic people and clergy to practise
and to preach temperance. IL would |
cause saloon keepers TO conduct their bust
ness with greater public decorum when
they understood they might be excluded |
from the church for engaging in the
traffic.

A story recalling characteristic trait
of the late Sir Andrew Clark is told by
a correspondent of the DAILY Meas. The
correspondent writes in reference to the
statement in the Strand Magazine that
'as regards fees Sir Andrew Clark al
ways took what was offered" This
statement, says the correspondent, con-
veys false impression. Sir Anc rev
always took what was offered when it
was less than his ordinary fee, but not
when it was more. Then an illustra-
tive case is mentioned with regard to
the physicians visit to Cannes some
years since. On returning to London
the patient he went TO see sent him a
check for $4,000, with Sir Andrew re-
turned, saying he could not accept it, as
it was excessive, his fee being ESQ. not
an excessive sum, considering it took
him away from his practice for week.
The patient paid the fee and returned
the first check, asking Sir Andrew to
employ it for the benefit of the suffering
sick poor, wishlwhich, it is needless
to say, was faithfully carried out.

formidable movement? l believe not. l
think the "anti-snappers" should have
started toward pefeGting their organiza-
ton Immediately after Mr.. Cleveland's
election, without waiting for any word
from him. When the Maynard outrage
was perpetrated they should have
promptly put full ticket in the field,
and would to-day have been immeasur-
ably stronger as an organization for
having done so. Now, however, that
the "anti.snappers" are organized to
fight the machine in this State to the
death, would it not be better to drop re-
elimination, and cease saying bitter
things about Mr.. Cleveland? He is their
friend ut heart,a and may be counted upon,
sooner or later, to come to their direct
aid. Certainly Senators Hill and
Murphy do not consider Mr.. Cleveland
as friendly to them or their machine.
The nomination of Mr.. Peckham for
Supreme Court justice was as severe a
blow as he could give them. In the
men who compose the "anti-snappers"
lies the hope of the future of the Demo-
cratic party in this State. In the exact
proportion to the wisdom and the judg-
ment they display docs the brightness
OF that future depend.
