The time was when boy choir in cas-
socks and cottas was looked upon as the
mark of n certain grade of Craftsmanship,
and such choirs were only to be found in
rituallstic or high church parishes, but in
Massachusetts at least, they have at length
ceased to he regarded as marks of church
mauship and are to be found wherever the
means are at hand for their equipment and
training. They are a. often found in broad
church as in high church parishes, and they
are regarded as Il great accessory in religious
worship. The professional and recessional
hymns give dignity to the beginning and
to the close Of ritual W orship, which is APP
preciated by everybody, and the beauty and
richness of the service where these boy
choirs are engaged are very attractive to
those who listen to them. 1t is great
gain in religious worship over the perfume
tory and often overelaborate renderinCs of
che musical part Of the service by church
quartet, and the value OF these boy choirs
Is moro and more appreciated.

THE DELANEY MURDER.
Mrs. Thorner and Mrs. Bartholomy Make
Statements.

BUFFALO. Juno 16.-Hundrcds of poo
pie visited the morgue to view tho remains
of William T.. Delaney, tho murdered law
yer, which lay upon marble slab cover
ed with q sheet. The features werc com
posed and natural. 1t is now definitely
known that two women were in Delaney 5
room when tho shot was fired, while still
another saw tho assault from u doorway
across the hall. One of the two women
who were in the room was the companion
of Bartholomy, who guided him to the
place, and the other was Bartholomy s
wife. The Inference is that the first acted
as an informcr upon the other, prompted
perhaps by jealousy. Her name is Mrs.
Thorncr.
Bartholomy himself is still at hcadquar-
tiers, noncommittal except rs to his first
statement that he did the shooting He
has been recognized as the assassin by
several who saw him going to Delaney s
room or coming away, a smoking revolver
in his clutch.
Mrs, Bartholomy has been arrested and
taken to police headquarters as witness.
She refuses to talk about the tragedy, Is
does her husband. The other woman,
Mrs. Thorner, who eluded the police and
made her way to Victoria, Ont, Is want
ed, but she refused to come back with the
detective who went after her. n warrant
accordingly has been issued for her arrest
on the charge of murder as accessory, and
the police will cooperate with the Cana
dian authorities to secure her presence In
this city. Mrs. Thorner, before leaving,
made statement to the police and dis
trict attorney. Mrs Thorner said in sub
stance that Bartholomy met her on the
street and told her that his wife was up
in the Ribbed building with Delaney. He
asked her to go over with him as n wit
ness. They went over and went into the
room together. She says Bartholomy pull
ed out his gun the moment he entered the
room and kept Delaney covered with 1t.
After parley she went after paper and
ink, and while she was gone tho men came
together Just as she came into the room
Bartholomy fired. Mrs. Bartholomy does
not add much additional light to tho sto-
ry. She admits that she has been intimate
with Delaney for at least two months.

The Value of n Good Address.

Young men should study to talk well
to state their propositions with clear
ness and force that will make their hear
ers feel that the speaker has reached the
gist of the matter. and that his opinion is
of some weight You will notice man
coming into the Office. There is some,
thing in his very appearance and the
way he carries himself that commands
respect and attention. a canvasser for
a book came into my Office only yester-
day who was splendid illustration of
it. had no intention of buying his cy-
clopedia. But he was well dressed and
intelligent. He seemed to understand
my wants, and In five minutes we were
talking busily together. He sold me $3.50
worth Of books.

Ign, New York. Boston, Philadelphia,
Washington, Baltimore and Chicago, Tho
expenses of tho trip were SIS, 900, leaving
$24, 900 to be divided between the two
clubs, tho players receiving very large
part of these profits, which nctted each
member of the two mines an average of
$400 or $500 extra and above his salary.
That was the most profitable of all the
worlds series ever played. In 1888 tho
New Works and st. Louis teams, tho re-
spectivo champions played 10 games to o
little moro than $24, 900, SIG, 900 of which
was profit. Tho players in this series each
got 5000 of tho money.
In 1880 tho New Works and Brooklyns
played ntnG worlds series games before
Sc, 600 pooplc, which made tho gross 10
coipts about tho same us they wcro in 1888,
and the players OF the two mines proiited
thorchy to tip extent u several hundred
dollars apiece. Then came the Players
League fight and tho r>lr'lion OF the Amer
ican ,ssAocint:osl, which wiped out these
profitable worlds series After the In
diannpolis consolidation In tho winter of
1891 there WAS OF course an end to tho
post sCSlSou games, and to the winners of
the pcnnnt nothing but the empty honor
attached during 1870, 1891, 1892 and 1893.

WIMAN FOUND GUILTY.

victed of Forgery.

victed of Forgery.
NEW YORK, June l6.-Erastus Wiman
has been found guilty of forgery in the
second degree. Up to the time of his ar
rest in February last everybody. or nearly
everybody who ever heard or read of this
philanthropist would have staked their all
on his reputation, but today he is the in
mato of a fclon's cell in the Tombs prison.
The maximum penalty for the otfense is
10 years at hard labor in state prison I'm
dor the recent laws passed by the logisla-
turc the minimum penalty has been abol-
ished, and Mr.. Wiman may be sentenced
to u term of imprisonment from one day
to ten years.
The jury, after listening to tho very i'm
partial charge of Judge Ingraham, retired.
Every one in court was on tiptoc of ex-
pcctation. Tho majority of them, how
ever, were confident the jury would dis
agree on the ground of the absence of proof
that Wiman committed the alleged for
gcrios with criminal intent
The first shock that the defendant re
ceivod was when Deputy Sheriff Brown
placed him under Arrest tho moment that
Judge 1ngraham began his charge to the
jury
Wiman's sons sat beside him, and n
number of his friends sat around. He
movement showed that he was confident
of an acquittal or at least a disagreement
Just an hour and So minutes after they had
retired tho jury filed into tho courtroom.
Tho clerk then said to the jury, Gen
tlcmcn, have you agreed upon verdict
Yes, we have" said Foreman Murray.
Il am sorry to say we find Mr.. Wiman
guilty of forgery in the second degree, but
we recommend him to the mercy of the
court.
AS soon as tho verdict was rendered the
counsel for the defense asked that the jury
be pollcd. This was done. Then Judge
Ingraham remandcd Wiman for sentence
until Wednesday, June 20, and discharged
the jury. Deputy Sheriffs Brown and
Kelly then stepped up to Wiman and es-
cortcd him out OF the courtroom to the
ToInbs prison. His sons accompanied him
and babe him an affectionate goodby at
the prison gate. Wiman bore up bravely
through the trying ordeal.

WOOLEN MILLS CLOSING.
There Is But L:ttIe Encouragement FOR tn

NEW YORK, june lU.--R. G. Dun &
Co. 5 weekly review OF the trade, out to-
day, SAYS:
The stlikc of bituminous coal miners
Will end Monday wherever tho authority
and advice OF their general organization
can end it, anu There is little room to
doubt that the co III famine will then be
gin to nhatp. But the agreement seems to
be angrilr rejected by most of the miners
in Ohio and by some in othor states, and
it Is in terms conditioned upon its general
acceptance in western Pennsylvania,
where some of the operators reject it.
Probably local struggles may continue,
but the miners will gradually see that
they have little chance Tor getting more
than their committee has secured. Some
time must clapse before supplies of fuel
will enable all works to resume that have
no other reason for suspending production.
Meanwhile the demand for products is so
slack that it seems questionable whether
as many hands will find employment he
fore the end Of June as were employed in
April.
The actual output of pig iron weekly
June l was only G2, 5l7 tons against 1875,
732 April and ia, O3a 8 year ago. but
the reduction Of PAS 552 tons in unsold
stocks indicates that quantity nearly
double the output has been taken for con-
sumption. If there were orders to con-
tinue manufacture at that rate, rcSump
ton OF over two-thirds Of the full capaci
ty Of works would not be long delayed.
But the eastern demand is on the whole
disappointingly small, and in the central
region the termination Of the coke strike
is essential, hut not yet assured. Many
boot and shoe shops have stopped, but
shipments from the cast arc 10 per cent
larger for June thus far than last year.
The demand Is mainly confined to low
priced goods and has recently been more
narrow for womens shoes.
The wooden mills arc closing rapidly.
1t la asserted that scarcely any have orders
to occupy them beyond July l in mon S
wear, but in tho demand for dress goods
a somewhat better tone is perceived. Sales
of wool in two weeks have been 5, 626, $50
pounds against 3,637,17 last year and
II, SEQ 100 in 1899. Tho New York and
Philadelphia markets are dull, and ut Bos-
ton n slight decline is seen in prices, with
n large sale of territory wool ut so cents

Horseshoes have been found in tombs
that date back to the sixth century.
Over s, 900 varieties of postal cards have
been issued in the world within So years.

1t came upon you so quietly, in the be-

You ought to have known when you

you grew so irritable without cause, that
there was serious trouble somewhere.
You ought to be told that indigestion,
