One of the most foolish Of all fool
things is fooling with sin.
Sin would not be so deadly II the
devil could not wear a mask.
n the world likes you right well, it is
a sure sign that you are like the world.
The kind Of righteousness that takes
people to heaven is not the kind that
brags On itself.
Those who would know the Lord
we'll must not mingle too much with the
concerns Of the world.
Some preachers never seem to think
II worth while to work at their trade In
the middle Of the week.
II may be set down as fact that
nudity in art is from the devil, because
it does the DEVILS work.
A good many boys have turned out
badly because they had fathers who
made them work with a dull hoe.
For the heart to consent that any
kind Of wrong shall live, is vote foi
the devil to be prince Of this world.
One reason why there Is not more
good being done is because so many
people want to wait until tomorrow u
begin.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox does not have
much faith in the idea of woman
marrying man with the hope of re-
forming him afterwards. She says
1T is my belief that man who has not
the self-respect to save himself will not
respect any woman enough to be saved
by her. l do not think any man should
marry until he is thirty, and il he has
not reformed at that age it is a very
unsafe experiment for any woman to
attempt to reform him. His moral
vision is very limited if he has not
discovered by that time that there is
nothing in dissipation but degradation
and DEATH"

A great problem which the next G

A great problem which the next CEN
tury will have seriously to take in hand
and finally solve is this: Are rich men
likely to prove of any real social use, or
will 1t be better to abolish the institu-
tiOn? The day may come when the
world will have agreed to abolish rich
men altogether as an absolete institu-
tion. And certainly no anarchist or
communist is working so desperately to
hurry on that day as are the rich men
themselves. During the whole of an
tiquity the entire art education of the
people, and their amusements, specta-
cles and luxuries, were provided for
them freely by the wealthy. During
the whole of the medieval period vast
resources were spent for the public ben
eft in the way of churches, religious
offerings, ecclesiastical and academic
endowment. The cathedrals, ministers,
churches We're the gifts of the rich and
were themselves free museums, CALLER
les of art, music halls and even theatres.
When the medieval world ended, much
was done of the same kind, but in less
noble and muni6oent ways, by the
kings, princesses, courtiers and gran
dees. In our age the pOssessors OF
hereditary wealth are mostly inclined
to spend it on themselves and their per-
sonsl friends. Frederick HARRISON, in

Coke Strikers Were Prepared 90 Blow
Up Big Plant.
MOUNT PLEASANT, Pa, May 9.-The
first attempt to introduce dynamite In be-
half of the coke workers was frustrated
here, thanks to the vigilance of General
Superintendent Ramsay, of the Southwest
Connellsville Coke company, and the
prompt action of Sheriff McCann. A
week ago Mr.. Ramsay got reliable in
foamrtion that the strikers intended blow
ing up his company's "A" plant at More
wood. Mr.. Ramsay at once consulted
with the sheriff and as a result suspected
parties were put under the closest sur
veillance, which ended In locating them
while putting the finishing touches on the
bomb in the woods on Sand Hill, a half
mile north Of town and less than mile
from the shaft which the internal
machine was intended to destroy.
The sheriff took six Of his most trusted
deputies on duty at Morewood and drove
to the woods. The little party quickly
surrounded the suspected point, closed in,
and the astounded quartet of plotters
were handcuffed prisoners the next mo
ment. The bomb, metal ball, wire GOV.
cred and filled with dynamite, was found
hidden in a pile of rails, and was taken
along with the prisoners to the Greens
burg jail It's weight is given at over
twenty pounds. The prisoners are Ed
ward Davis, a younger brother of the i'm
prisoned United Mine Workers president
William McCracken, both of this place
the latter not yet of age and two for
eigners. Davis and McCracken claim
they had no hand in making the bomb
and were present by accident.

THE RIOTS CONTINUE.
Cleveland Police Fight a Mob Of
Two Thousand Rioters.
WORKING MILL MEN ATTACKED.

They Are Driven from Their Factories by
Howiing Mobs, which Are Finally Put
to Flight by the PoIice-nIany of the
Gang Severely CIubbed.
CLEVELAND o., May 3.-The disorders
which began Tuesday with the May Day
demonstration of the unemployed cul-
minated yesterday In open riots. There
were three separate and bloody conflicts
between the police and the rioters, and to-
day the police are under arms ready to re-
spond to call in case of an emergency. The
worst is believed to be over, however.
The trouble began in the forenoon, when
mob of about 1000 started to raid the
factories on the fats and drive from work
the men employed therein. The first at
tack was made at the Variety iron works.
The windows of the factory were smashed
with stones and bricks, and the workmen
fled in panic. A force of seventy-five po-
lcemen was then called in. The rioters
proceeded to the Upson bolt works, where
1900 men were induced to quit work be-
fore the officers arrived When the police
came upon the scene the men made a
stand and hurled bricks and stones at the
officers. Orders were given to charge them
with clubs. The rioters ran like sheep at
the first assault, but their leaders sue
ceeded in rallying them upon the Abbey
street viaduct
Squads Of police coming up at both ends
of the bridge penned in the crowd, and
they were forced to fight their way out.
They made a rush for the officers, but at
least score were dubbed numerically
before they finally succeeded in getting
away. During this conflict two anarch-
lists were arrested after terrible struggle
on their part. One of them, Thomas
Moore, an old man, was dubbed into sub
mission and taken to the station in pa
troll wagon, cursing the police and declar-
| ing that this was the happiest day Of his
| life. The firmness of the police had a
| good effect, for 1t resulted in scattering
the rioters in all directions.
| In the south end of the city, at the same
time, mob of 800 men drove the work
| men away from the United States Salt
works and were about to make raid on
the Cleveland rolling mills. They were
met by Police Director Herbert and q
squad of ten policemen, who dubbed them
until they were glad to run. At least
thirty men were injured in this melee,
but the mob was dispersed.
Mayor Blee issued a proclamation COM
manding people to not assemble on the
streets, and at the same time he called
upon the Cleveland Grays, the Gatling
gun battery and the resident companies
of the Ohio National Guard to assemble
in their a1mories and await his call.
There was a ready response to the call,
and at least 500 men are under arms await
ing any emergency that may arise
