If pale. aud one hand pressed over his
heart. M. Rivaud, project of Lyons,
who was seated by the president, inn
medately struck the assassin blow
in the face and knocked him off the
steps, preventing his giving second

In studying the statistics of manu-

Of men employed, the amount of raw
material used and the value of the
product have been largely increased
during the last ten years, but there
has been no corresponding increase in
the number of establishments, and in
. great many cases the number is
much smaller than it was ten years
ago. There were, for example, 1,943
factories making agricultural imple-
ments in 1880, while in 1890 there
were only 900. The carpet mills de-
creased from 1876 to 173, the chemical
works from 592 to 563. the cooper
shops from 3,898 to 2, 652, the cordage
and rope works from 165 to 14O, the
cotton factories from l,0O5 to 9O5, the
-four mills from "a, 1913 to Is, 47O, the

Mrs. Mary HAYES JOues.

The sudden death of Mrs. Mary Hayes
Jones, widow of the late Pror. W. P.
Jones, is announced in the Evanston,
Pa, Press of July 21st, last. The North
western Christian Advocate of August
LIST, has a fine tribute to the deceased
from the pen of Miss Frances Willard,
that we regret is too long for our col
umns. Mrs. Jones was born in Connect
icut, December 31st, 1888, and was mar
ried to Prof. Jones February 22nd, 1856.
Mrs. Jones was woman of unusual
qualities. While she possessed rare ex-
ecutive ability and remarkable energy,
she was one of the kindest hearted and
most womanly of women. In all her
trials she was always looking on the
bright side of things, and an hour spent
with her was always refreshing. AL
though herself of decided opinions, she
was never intolerant of other peoples
ideas. She was thoroughly religious
woman, and her long connection with
the Methodist church was always one of
her most valued associations.
A valued friend of the BANNER, who
furnishes us with these particulars says:
Mrs. Mary Hayes Jones began her life
as teacher at Mt. Anthony Seminary at
the Centre, where her father the Rev.
Gordon Hayes, was principal. Her pu-
pills, and all who knew her, loved her,
and she was one who would never be
forgotten. Her mother was sister of
Mrs. Samuel Fay and Mrs. Uriah Edger-
ton, and many happy days Mary had
spent at the old Edgerton house. She
She had just received and decided to &C
cept warm invitation to visit Mrs. Jen.
nings at the Edgerton place, when she
was taken i'll with cholera morbus, and
after twenty four hours of extreme suf-
fering, died at Mt. Morris, where she
had gone with her daughter for a few
days visit. A host of long time friends,
more than hundred, went out from
Evanston, Pa, to the interment at Rose
Hill Cemetery, where she was buried be-
side her husband, her father, mother
and sister, lydia,

answer to the first two questions he might
say that in ward two in this village there
are 10 places where bars are open and
liquor as freely sold as in any place in
New York or Massachusetts.
He might further tell him that in the
village there is total of 25 such places,
none of them run secretly, and that
officers of the law frequent them daily.
He might say in reply to the third
question that such thing as failure or
refusal is unknown. as the officials are

as they have the chance to arrest some
