Blueheld Items.

Business has been dull, owing to the
strike in the coal fields. In nearly all
branches of the railroad service some
men have been cut off or time reduced.
Cashier & Curran have allowed some Of
their men to 60 home on vacation, but
their salaries still go on. The average
coal shipments OF this company have
been about fifty cars day lately, where
they used to ship 700 or 500. The strike
does not affect the growth of the town.
and bulldogs are being erected in all
portions Of the city. The drug stores
are running just outside the corporate
limits since the city council refused
permit for obtaining license.
The Armour Packing Company will
start branch here in the near future.
The Rev. Mr.. Lindsay. formerly Of
Bay View, Va, took charge of the
Presbyterian Church here last Sunday,
and the Presbyterians will have service

THE wEINMAN CASE.
John Weinmsn is Sent on to the Grand
Jury.

John Weiumsn Is Sent on to the Grand
Jury.
The first case called in the notice
court this morning was that Of John
Weinmau, charged with the killing of
Walter p. Wills. Yesterday the Justice
dismissed the case against Willie Vein
man, and took under consideration that
OF John Weinman, and when the case
was called this morning announced
that he would have to send the accused
on to the grand jury.
Mr. Harrison arose and suggested to
the justice that before deciding finally
he would examine the physicians who
had attended Willis and get from them
their opinions as to the cause Of death.
1t was perfectly clear from the testi-
mopy that had been introduced that no
case had been made out.
The justice in reply said that the
testimony had been sufficient to arouse
suspicion that the man had been
murdered, and that this was sll that
was necessary to make it his plain duty
TO send the case on. No evidence had
been forthcoming to show any other
cause for death than thai of blow.
Apparently 1t was murder, and there ia
absolutely no other course for him to
pursue.
mr. harrison salo In reply to thl8,
that Mr.. Terry had been consistent in
his statement to the effect that although
Wills had fallen against him, he had
nevertheless continued falling to the
ground, and 1t must have been with
some force. and blow with the fist
could certainly not kill man.
The justice said that was question
for Jury to decide, that he was not
there to determine the merits of the
.-Lynchburg Advance.

there was one side that was not get
ting any representation. There was
some things that should be charged
home TO the churches. and he told how
he had been authoritatively informed
that the police commissioners of Wich-
ita were endorsed for appointment by
w. Z. Stanley, superintendent of the
Methodist Sunday school in that city,
and Colonel Lewis, the eX-banker, who
is an elder in the Presbyterian church

asked, and answered his own question
by saying that those men were in bust

business by doing otherwise. Rev.
Pinch said that about all that was left
in Wichita anyway was the whisky
traffic, and he scored that place. Atchi-

THEY CAN'T HELP THEMSELVES.
Boston Terminal Lines Paralyze r Western
Lines scheme.

Chicago, July 5.-The Boston ternin-
/ al lines today took a hand in the fight
over the arrangements for the Chris
tian Endeavor convention, and the re-
suit is such as TO give the 500 line and
all others who have been promising
long time return limits on all their tick
cts very black eye. The Boston lines
decided in special meeting that the
time limits for Christian Endeavor and
Christian Union tickets viii be strictly
enforced, regardless OF a printed or
promised condition made by connecting
lines 10 the contrary. Round trip tick
cts for these conventions Will only be
accepted by the terminal lines for the
going passage from July 10 L inclu-
| slVe and the return portion will be ac-
cepied only from July II 10 81 inclusive
The tickets presented the terminal
lines contrary 10 these dates will not be
accepted.
There is no way that the 500 line and
the others which have been promising
return limits on Christian EndeavOr
! tickets as late as September l and l.,
can get around this thing If the termi-
nal lines adhere to their resolutions
and there Is no doubt that they viii do

| Topeka, July disqualification to-
wards the last Of the great Temperance
! pow-wow here the true scheme of the
convention came out II was the call
for cash-a long. shrieking, plaintive,
whistling nasal bray for more fodder.
After the convention had listened 70
the dreary resolutions which were ba-
byishly impractical in all their suggest
ions and mildly denunciatory of every
thing and conmandatory of nothing,
and after a Rev. Hammond of Baldwin
Kansas. had thrown himself into a
spasm which he intended for oratory
and after Governor Morrill, had made
his honest straightforward speech TO
the humiliation Of his hypocritical
enemies, and after Rev. Pinch of En-
porla had with great and painful eff
fort at humor announced that every
body, but the ministers and prohibition
lists in Wichita. were drunken sots. af-
ter all this the real and unmistaKable
purpose OF the meeting poked it's nose
out of the hole
The committee on ways and means
by ). w. Forest, its chairman, reported
that no great work could be accom-
pllshed without money, that money was
now absolutely necessary for needed
work, and appealed to the friends of
law and order for assistance. The re-
port urged that $4,000 be raised at
once by subscription as follows: 1000
persons subscribing s. each, 1000 sub
scribing 81 each, and 5000 subscribing
81 each. A direct appeal to this con-
ventiOn was recommended, and also
that the executive committee be author
lied to employ two agents to travel
over the state and organize auxiiiarias
The life membership fee was fixed at
SO and an appeal was made to the news
papers to assist in the work. The re-
port was adopted and the appeal to the
convention for contributions was made
forthwith, resulting in the raising of
cash and subscriptions TO the amount
of almost $500
WHAT THEY RESOLVED.
The resolutions adopted were as fol-
lows:
Resolved. That this convention de-
sireS by ITS action to emphasize and ac-
celerate the common temperance senti-
ment Of the state-that is that general
opinion among all good men which at
the last creates and maintains public
opinion.
''Second-That in the laws of the state
both constitutional and statutory. we
find the most undiSputable sentiment
of the state. There can be no higher
or truer index of what the people be-
lieve and esire than that enshrined in
the fundamental law of the state and
the acts made TO enforce this organic
provision.
'Third-In the constitutional prohibit
ton of saloons and dram shops and
the statutory enactments designed to
