TROLLEY PARTIES THE RAGE
Probable That They VIII Invade
Washington During the Fall.
Mr.. Thomas Hayden at President
CIeyeIand's Former Summer Resi-
dence at Saranac Inn.

Washington society has happily not as yet
caught the fever that now RACES in Balti-
more OF entertaining itself with trolley
parties.
Inthe Monumental City ythecOEtagionfrom
the North has taken hold with great force
upon the stay-athome contingent, and the
streets and outlying districts through which
the favorite lines OF cars run are gay with
frequent trolley parties.
The main feature Of such form Of rapid
movement amusement appears TO the out
slider TO be noise. The trolley party making
the greatest amount Of noise seems TO be
the one voted the greatest success.
As everything i'll time comes to Washing
ton, the trolley party craze win Of course
the fashionable and unfa shionable class
viii take hold and test it during the present
autumn.
A trolley car has to be chartered and filled
with The invited party. In many eases this
party is a ''Dutch treat" affair. But
whichever way Jhey are filled, whether by
invitation or pooling OF the guests, they
are run at The highest rate OF speed over
the lines operated. Generally they are dec
grated in The most gorgeous manner with
flags and bunting, with here and there
clusters OF flowers to add to the gaiety
OF GIhcigEeneral appearance. Theneach and
every one OF the trolley party is provided
wilh a horn, upon which all The lung power
possible is expended as thccar speeds along
through the streets or quiet country roads.
An important feature ot the amusenentto
be extracted arises when here and there
along the way people stand waiting On the
street or run out into the roadway franti-
ca,ly waving for the car to stop and take
them on. y
Supper is served at the terminus of the
ride, either in the city or country, as may
ba preferred.

OUR LABOR INTERESTS
STILL ADVANCING.
The Increase in Wages sot Confined to
Special Linas.

Again the matter Of wage restoratlons has
formed the most important factor in the in
dustral history Of the past week, and the in
dications are that tho current week will be
marked with a number Of increases and nd
vances that will exceed those made in the
same length OF time since the better con-
ditioEs began to show themselves. The
spreading Of the evidences Of improvement
In all branches Of industry ID awakening a
general interest. and furnishes encourage
ment that has been longed for by all since
the flrst restoration OF wages were made In
the textile industry, TO which Il was confined
for 30 many weeks.
A very gratifying feature OF the present
advance In wages is that 1t Is not confined to
any special line OF industry. but seems to ex-
tend to nearly all, The coal mining industry
is at present the most Disturbed line in the
country. with numerous Interstate and local
troubles, but even In this branch some as-
yances In rates have been made. The fact
that there lie n general upward movement in
wages is certainly regretted by none, as 1t
will add to the prosperity OF all. And the
fact that the employers OF labor arc not con-
stantly on the watch for opportunitie, TO re-
duce labor is shown In the action OF at least
one company, which voluntarily advanced
its rates over the figures fixed by an agree
ment which runs throughout the year

Starvation in Armenia.

Dispatches from Kars, Russia, say the con-
dition OF the poorer Armonians is distressing,
and added TO the robberles, outrages and
nassacres which the Turks and kurds have
brought upon them, they are now harrassed
by a famine so terrible that many OF them
are dying of starvation. Few crops were
grown last summer, owing TO the fact that
many OF the farmers and cultiyators Were
thrown into prison by the Turks under
charges OF revolutionary conspiracy. Then
tho cattle were stolen by the Kurds, and
what the people had left in the way OF pro-
visions or property WAS seized by the gov
eminent officials Tor taxes. Even the COM
monest household utensils are taken by the
taxgatherers, 30 that the people were left
destitute. Those who we're able to do so fed
10 Russia or Persia. Hundreds OF them died
on the road OF starvation and exposure. OF
these the old women and young children
were the most numerous, but in many cases
strong men broke down under the strain OF
hunger and despair. There will be no crops
planted In Eastern Armenia this spring, Tor
the country Is everywhere suffering from a
reign OF terror. The presence OF the Commis-
sion OF Inquiry at Moosh, and the indigna-
ZION OF the Christian powers of Europe, have
had absolutely no effect upon the conduct Of
either Turks or Kurds in Eastern Turkey.

MURDER ED AT A CHURCH
Bloody Duel in Kentucky, the Result
OF a Forced Marriage.

OF a Forced Marriage
A bloody and sensational duel followed the
dismissal Sunday morning OF the congrega-
tion Of the Presbyterian church at Troy, Ky.
Archibald Riley, well.eonneeted young
man, was shot and killed and George Mont
gomery was so badly wounded that he will
die.
The duel took place just outside the church
door, and that no more persons were killed
Is marvel.
The trouble between the men began three
years ago, when Montgomery made Riley
marry Montgomerys sister, who he declared.
had been wronged by Riley. This was done
at the point OF shotgun. Riley then went
south i'm mes lately after the forced marriage,
leaving his wife here. few weeks ago he
returned TO Kentucky, locating near Nichol-
asvile,

sworn to kill Montgomery. sunday morning
the men attended church, and coming out
met face to face. Both drew aud began FIR
ing. Montgomery shot Ave times and each
ball went into Riiey's body. Riley fired three
times and each ball struck Montgomery. A
brother OF Montgomery also drew weapon
and shot three times, but the bullets Went
wild.
Turning to the crowd OF worshipers who
we're panic stricken, George Montgomery
said " / hated TO do this, ladies and gem
tlemen, but had to do 1t. My conscience Is
now easy"

The statement that highly trained
athletes are short lived is not surpris-

impossible to undergo n high degree
of physical development without sub
jecting the heart to a strain that is
injurious. 1t is doubtful if persons
who are painstaking in developing
their muscles, but who fall short of
high training, have any longer lease
of life than the man of flabby muscles

The medical statistics of this coun-
try have been studied by DR.. John 4.
Billings from tho racial standpoint.
He deduces many curious facts. The
infantile death rate among the colorel
people is very high; the race itself is
shorter-lived than the whites; it is
less liable than the whites to malaria,
yellow fever and cancer, but succumbs
more readily to tuberculosis and
pneumonia. Irish children survive
infantile diseases, but the adult death
rate is high; tuberculosis, pneumonia
and alcoholism cut them down. Ger.
mans are especially liable to digestive
disorders and cancer. Hebrews have
low death rate; they live long their
diseases are diabetes, locomotor
ataxia and kindred nervous all.
