AN ASSOCIATED PRESS FAKE.
It Is Rejected With scorn by q Member
of the Organization.

SANDUSKY, o., December 29.-The
Register, OF this city. which is owned by
l. +. Mack. member OF the Associated
Press and for many years a member of
the western organization, says editorial
ly: "The managers OF the Associated
Press are sending to members a state
ment to the effect that twenty-five OF
the forty Southern Associated Press
papers have abandoned that organiza-
ton and the United Press, and have come
into the Associated Press. There may be
members Of the Associated Press who
will swallow that lie. but we are not one
Of them. Having kept close track OF this
fight. we have discovered the loss OF two
members from the Southern Associated
Press and corresponding gain to the
Illinois association. and II Is safe TO say
that for every dollar thus gained by tho
Illinois association II viii pay two. II not
three. as the cost OF serving raw re.

Chief James j. Bresnan and Assistant
Foreman John l.. Rooney met death early
this morning while fighting a fire In Cas-
slday Sons & Co.'S gas and electricity
ture works in west Twenty-fourth street.
The fire was on the NTH and sixth
floors, and Chief Bresnan, surrounded by
men from engine companies Nos. II, Is,
and 10. was forcing his way up the stair
way leading TO the fourth floor. Without
warning the oharred beams OF the fifth
floor gave way under the weight of a
heavy piece OF machinery. which carried
away the stairway. Bresnan and Rooney
were both pinned under the machinery
as 1t struck the fourth floor. and both
were probably instantly killed.
Half dozen firemen were also pinned
down on the stairway leading from the
fourth 10 fifth floor. but they managed
to cut their way out in advance of the
flames. Four OF them were painfully, but
not seriously, burned.

the archbishop approaches them, attend

ecclesiastics bears golden ever, with a
narrow neck, IN which is scented water,
and the other a basin and napkins of
fine damask linen. A footstool is before
each old man. The basin is set on it by
the archbishop. This done, the person
whose feet are to be washed withdraws
them from the canvas slippers and holds
them over the basin His grace then
pours few drops Of water over each
foot. This done, towel is handed to
him, and he wipes the water away.

A.
gantic lion in the throes of death An
arrow has pierced the heart of the beast,
and between its feet is a shield on which
IS device of Bourbon lilies. The figure
has been cut into the face of q preeipice
20 feet high, the whole face of the rock
having been carved out SO as to leave
the lion standing IN bold relief. Though
the lion is dying, there is evidence OF
strength in the figure, and the whole
monument is exceedingly impressive. 1t
Is situated IN park ON the outskirts Of
Lucerne- The precipice rises abruptly
out Of the water, and the visitor views
the memorial from the other side of the
lake
The Lien of Lucerne" is % feet in
length That of Atlanta is o feet long,
and 1t is a faithful reproduction Of
Thorwaldsen's great work in all re-
spects, save that instead of Bourbon ill
les the device upon the shield is the
Confederate battlehag The monument
Is wrought entirely of Georgia stone,
the lion being carved out Of block of
wt1te marble and resting upon a base
of gray The work of the sculptor is
well done, and the finish Of the monu-
ment Is really admirable.
