FIGHTING THE FIGHT
DALLAS MINISTERS OPPOSE THE
USE OF CARNAL WEAPONS.
Pastors Association of that City Meets and
Passes Resolutions Not at all Compli-
mentary to the Prize Ring or Its Pa
trons--They Give Voice to Their Abhor-
renee of Such Doings--Governor Is
Urged, il the Statutes Don't Reach the
Case, to Call an Extra Session to Legis-
late Against the Coming Contest.

Dallas, Tex, June 10.-The Dallas
pastors association met in the Young
Mems Christian association building al
10 o'clock this morning with Rev. E
L. SpragginS in the chair. The regular
business was set aside and the Cor
bett fight taken up. Rev. Z. l. Sprag-
gins, Of the Methodist church, intro
duced the following resolution:
Whereas, We learn with shame and
sorrow that it is proposed to hold in
our midst contest between two noted
pugilists; and.
Whereas, Such contests are brutaliz-
ing in an unspeakable degree; and,
Whereas, Such a contest will concen-
trate in our midst a horde of blers,
thieves, pickpokets, thugs mad harlots
whose presence, even when scattered
throughout the country is a perpetual
menace to the welfare of the communi-
~, and when concentrated here would
debauch our city and state in an I'M
limited degree; and
Whereas, While we have the fullest
confidence in the integrity, ability and
courage of our chief executive, Gov
ernor Culberson, there is some doubt
asto the adequacy of our statutes to en-
able the state authorities to effectually
interposeS to prevent the besmirching
of the fair name of our CITY and state
in the eyes of the civilized world in
this matter; therefore.
Resolved, That we express our most
emphatic disapproval and adherence
of the proposed outrageous abomnina-
ton.
Resolved, That we call upon the at
torney general of the state for an opin-
ion as to the power given in our laws
10 the executive in the premiss.
They then ask the governor, If he
inds the law inadequate. to call an ex-
ira session of the legislature to pro-
hibit the fight

WAS BLOOD ON THE MOON.
Colored Men on the Wsrpath Threaten
Vengeance a Motoneer.


An old colored man named McCune
and a moternerr on a street car got into
a dispute last night and the moterneer
laid the colored mans head open with
his rheostat crank.
McCune was taken to Or. Fordice's
Office and after having his wounds
dressed was taken home in the city
ambulance. His wound was consider
ed serious but not necessarily fatal.
The fracas occurred at the corner OF
Main and Third streets and In a short
time a large crowd OF colOred men
had assembled and were watching the
passing cars for the moterneer who hit
McCune. None OF them were able 20
name the moterneer but two or three
claimed to be able To recognize him.
The colored men who claimed TO have
witnessed the affair the said that Nc
Cune come from the north on the car
and was intoxicated. He and the mo-
terneer had some words and after Nc
Cune got of the car he said to the
moterneer. You called me Niger"
and applied an epithst TO the moterneer
and that then the rnoterneer Jumped
off his car and did his work
The men at the street car Office said
they were unable 10 tell who the mo-
terneer was. Some claimed that he
was on a Paramount car and others
that II was the Main street car and

McCune was a passenger and not the
mOterneer. The men AT the Office said
they could not yet tell which story was
the correct one or whether any or
them were correct.

"COME OUT OF THAT CLOUD"
Methodist Minister Gives His Brother Cler.
gymen q Singing Rebuke.

Baltimore, Md, June 10.-The minis
tiers of the Baltimore Methodist Epis-
copal conference were surprised today
to learn that Rev. j. Thomas Willhide
one of their brother members, had de-
serted his mother church and allied
himself with sect Of faith healers al
Chicago.
He has sent his resignation and
parchment to Presiding Elder j. st.
Clair Neal, and has given several reas-
ons for levaing the church. One is,
that he is not a married man, and he
refers to a verse of Scripture which
says a deacon should be the husband
of one wife. He says also he does not
find the doctrine of infant baptism in
the Bible.
Lastly, he says the day Of miracles
is not over. He insists that God cures
sickness in answer to prayer, and he
exhorts the Methodist preachers to
"come out from under a cloud of to-
bacco smoke" purify themselves Of
nicotine and stop imputing sickness
and death to God.
He joined the conference in 1888. He
was for time pastor Of the North
Avenue Methodist church.. and of the
Glyndon church.

Old Easter Customs.

Among the many curious customs Oh
the olden times was that called "dahc-
Ing of the sum-" In Ireland the prac'
tice was as follows: About eight or nine
o'clock on the evening before Easter
some morsels were put In the pot over
the fire for the refreshment or the COM
pany assembled the next morning. put
woe unto anyone who should taste II
before the cock crew. At twelve O'Clock
q great clapping of hands was heard,
with laughing cries of "Out with the
Lenty Then followed a season OF great
merriment for two or three hours. All
then retired. to rise again a dawn TO
see the sun dance. 1t was an honest
belief among the people that the sun
really danced in the sky that morning.
They did not realize that one could not
look at the sun when shining brightly
ON any morning, without seeing 1t seem
to dance. In England the practice was
called manipulating, and the people
looked at sunrise for the reflection Of
the sun in spring or clear brook. They
also had an idea that the dancing refiec-
ton was to be seen on no other morn
ing Eggs were Ornamented and used
in various ways at Easter, pretty much
as they now are. The eggs were placed
in hot water for q few minutes, and
while yet warm q common tallow can
die was used as pencil to write names
and dates or to draw designs on the
shell. The warmth of the egg made this
quite easy. The eggs were placed in n
vessel of hot water in which cOchineal
or other dye had been dissolved. The
shell then became cOlOred everywhere
except where the tallOw had been ap-
piled. These marks remained white,
leaving white tracing on a eolored
ground. Eating tansy pudding was an
other Easter custom, and symboli2ed
the bitter herbs which were used by
the Jews at their Passover; but with
the pudding they also ate some bacon
to show that they did not share the
Jews prejudice against pork. An
Easter ball was often INDUCED In. On
Easter Monday and Tuesday twelve old
women would side off for a game Of
trap-and- ball, which continued until
sunset.
