The main audience room of the church
was we'll alled and all who participat-
ed in the exercises acquitted themselves
creditably, the parts being sustained
mostly bv the youngest children of the
school. The decorations were tasteful
and novelty was introduced in the
substitution of huge stocking, ten or
twelve feet in height, in place of the
time -honored tree. Smaller stockings
contained some of the gifts, of which
goodly number were distributed
The family of the pastor, Rev. F. w.
Lewis, received abundant evidence of
the generosity of the people in the
number and character of the presents
which fell to their share; the parson
himself received a fine sleigh, hand
somelv upholstered, to take the place
of the one that was burned in the fire
of last August; while nice silver
butter dish to Mrs. Lewis from the
members of her class in the school
and liberal purse of money, were

The Christmas exercises at the Con-
gregational church last Tuesday night
were very enjoyable and largely 81
tended, the parts by the children being
particularly pleasing and well rem
dered, especially the singing by little
Master Sargent.
Christmas is particularly interesting
to the children not only because of the
almost universal practice of giving
presents, hut because of the secret les
sons that come from the account of
the Christ child, whose birth It cele
brates. While much is made by them
of Kris Kringle, the beautiful trees
and the presents thereon, these other
lessons cannot all be forgotten. Miss

others, as abe always does, by the in
imitable way in which she rendered a

THE MINERS BACK DOWN.

They Ask the Operators for Conference
Which They Refused Two Weeks Ago
The Miners Are Divided.
Pittsburg, Pa, April 19.-The larg-
est district convention since the strike
was started was held here to-day,
sixty mines being represented. The
miners, however, are divided among
themselves. Even the committee on
resolutions was div yided, some wanting
a compromise, others asking for q gen
eral suspension of all mines and the
balance desiring TO continue the de-
mand for the 69-cent rate. AS a re-
suit. the committee reported that 1t
could not agree. Then the convention
instructed the district officers to ask
the railroad operators for a confer
ence tomorrow. This was back
down for the miners, for they refused
a similar offer from the operators two
weeks ago. The convention voted to
continue the strike for the 69-cent
rate, pending the action of the confer
ence and the convention then ad-
journed until tomorrow morning.

SEEKS UNITY
Of the Catholic and Anglican
Churches-~Th2 Pope Addresses an
Encyclical to the English People.

London. April 19.-The papal ency-
clical in regard to the union of the
Anglican and Roman Catholic
Churches, which will be published
here tomorrow, is addressed to the
English people who seek the king
dom of Christ in unity Of faith 1t
opens with the expression of long
cherished desire TO address them in
a special letter and thus give the illus
trious English race a token of sincere
affection. Continuing, the Pope says:
God is our witness to how keen our
wish is that some effort of ours might
tend to assist and further the great
work of obtaining the reunion OF
chTistendOm.
mo thought could be more welcome
to our soul" the Pope says, than that
happy unity of faith and wills, for
which our Redeemer prayed in earnest
supplication. for unity which is use
fuI at all times, even for temporal in
terests. both at home and abroad. The
time cannot be far distant when we
must appear to render an account Of
our stewardship to the Prince of Pas
tors. How happy and blessed should
we be if we could bring him some
proof, some realization OF these, our
wishes, which he inspired and sus-
tanned. In these days our thoughts
turn with love and hope to the English
people.
The Pope turns to all in England to
whatever community or institution
they may belong, desiring to recall
them to this holy unity.
His Holiness grants to all who pi-
ously recite the prayer to the Blessed
Vigin appended to the Encyclical an
Indulgence of three hundred days,
and he moreover grants plenary in
diligence. to those who for a month
recite it daily. The encyclical, which
abounds in biblical quotations, con-
cludes by calling the blessing Of God
upon the English people.

that the dealers are so rushed with
