The incident of the afternoon session
was slight tiff between J. j. Heating

dressing the convention, used the word
comrades and explained that from that
time on they would drop the term broth
ers," which they had formerly used in ad-

at this point, and seemingly without wait

interferes with the cause of Ireland"
Soon after the opening of the afternoon

new Irish song composed by Mrs. Teresa
Beatrice O'Harc, of Cleveland, called

gates arose and sang America and
''God Save Ireland"
There was q conference at McCoys hotel
during the afternoon of delegates VINO
have had experience in military affairs.
This meeting was held behind closed doors,

tails would be left to the officers and
executive council.
After lengthy discussion last night the
executive council decided that headquar-
tcrs OF the new organization would be at

LOUISVILLE, Sept. 27.-The members OF
the Brotherhood of St. Andrew, in con-
vcntion here, are all young men and most
of them are members Of the Protestant
Episcopal church, though any baptized
person whether churchman or not may
belong to il. It IS unlike the Christian
EndcavOr, Epworth League, etc, in not
Deing in any sense whatever u social Or
ganization. and in not admitting women.
1t is body OF workers. None are ad-
mitted except after a long probation, and
even after admission if any cease activity
they are expelled.
Its objcc. il to bring young men within
hearing of the preaching of the Gospel
not of necessity the preaching of it from
Episcopal pulpits, but from any pulpit.
Its members are business men and they
werk among other business men. Unlike
the Young Mems Christian association,
members of it rarely speak in public and
they have 10 buildings. Their work is
man to man, whenever and wherever OPP
portunity offers The brotherhood is about
fifteen years old and has about 5000
members, chiefly in the United States and
Canada, though the movement here is at
tracing attention in England.
The convention is not n legislative one,
for the order has no legislation TO do, but
spiritual retreat, and to discuss the best
way to induce more young men to 60 to
church on Sunday. The meeting is the
tenth annual one, and that Of 1885, which
will probably be held at Buffalo, N. Y, is
to be u joint American and Canadian con-
vcntion. From ! 900 to 800 young men
will he there, none of them visitors, but
all delegates, who are required to report
back to their fellow members in their re.
spective chapters.

to improve the same. The supply of the
latter town is expected to give out entirely
unless It rains. The report of the committee
as to the best means of improving the water
supply is awaited with much interest not
only by the residents of Ashland but every
town in the region that has suffered from a
like cause. 'Tis true that Shenandoah has
had sufficient water for all necessary pur-
poses, yet there seems to be an universal
opinion in favor of the erection of another
storage reservoir. The water committee of
the Borough Council has had the matter
under discussion for some time, but no
definite action has yet been arrived at. The
present drouth is an exceptionally severe one,
and the probabilities are that the region will
not witness such dry spell within num-
Der of years, yet there is an increase demand
for water with each succeeding summer 1t
is a commodity that is never drag upon the
market, and the supply cannot be too great
and will never equal the demand The
Borough Council will be upheld in every
effort it makes to improve upon and increase
the capacity of the present plant.
