pretty fair evidence that the vegetarian
lunch there given was a success. In fact.
one OF the ladies in charge said 1t was
bowling success.
There are about ten families in Washing
ton who are the nucleus of the vegetarian
reform theory. They got together some
days ago and suggested to the executive
committee OF the woman's Benericeni So
ciety of the Peoples Church, that one of
the three days iuncheons for the benefit
OF that church be devoted to the experiment
OF vegetarian lunch. Mrs. William Tin
dali, chairman of the executive committee,
who is a vegetarian in principle and prac-
tice, adopted the suggestion and so did the
committee.
Yesterday was the Vegetarian Day and
as the most practical proof OF the success
OF the experiment, the reports from the
kitchen showed that nearly all the special
reflections had to be made over again sew

large was tile crowd of disciples of this in

Louisville, KY, April 4.-Joseph j. Will

manner.
While oiling the machinery he was caught
by ny-wheel that makes about 200 revo-
Iutions a minute, and was dashed against
the wall and ceiling of the room, crushing
him to death INSTANTLY.
A peculiar fact connected with his death
is that Mrs. Willis told her husband this
morning before he went to work that she
had presentiment that something would
happen to him. He laughed it off, and
went to his work. where he met his death.

FOR BNDBAvoRERs' COMFORT.
Chairman Smiths Pan TO Give Them
Good Acoustics and Fresh Air.

Chairman Smiths Pan TO Give Them
Good Acoustics and Fresh Air.
Proper ventilation and the best possible
acoustics viii be important considerations
in the erection of the four mammoth tents
which are TO be used for the sessions of
the international Christian Endeayor con-
vention at Washington in July, 'e6. The
seating capacity of each tent will be about
10000, and Mr.. w. 81. II. Smith, chair
man of the committee of '96, has evolved
and VIII soon have in blue print plan
which Will relieve the host OF Endeavor
ers of much uncomfortable heat, and at
the same time enable them to hear each
speaker distinctly.
MIR. Smiths plan has been submitted
to a number of experts on this subject
and they have declared it TO be the most
practical idea OF its kind ever proposed.
1t is, in brief, as follows:
The sides OF each tent VIII be fastened up
about three feet from the ground all around.
The arrangement OF seats viii be milar
tothat in Madison Square Garden. Stretch
ing over the entire extent OF seats and about
eight feet from the top of the tent viii
be coarse wire netting covered with
Western building paper, which is OF straw
composition and oHe-eighth OF 0n inch in
thickness At frequent intervals in this
paperlarge air holes VIII be cut. There Will
also be a number OF these holes cut in the
canvas roof around the ridge pole. Sus-
pended from a flag pole above these latter
holes viii be an immense canvas hood to
keep out the rain and sunlight.
Mr.. Smith claims that as the maximum
OF cold is below. the cold air viii pass into
the tent through the opening caused by
lifting the sides from the ground, forcing
the hot eir above through the openings
in the building paper and out through the
holes under the hood. Thus there VIII be
a continuous current of air, and the visit
ing Endeavorers may be comfortable
during the hottest days of a hot summer.
The space between the wire netting and
the top of the tent viii act as a sort of
yentilating shaft, and the building paper
will take the place OF a sounding board.
Mr.. Smiths plan was informally but
favorably discussed at the meeting of the
committee of '96 on Wednesday afternoon,
and it is believed viii be ultimately
adopted. The necessary drawings are
being prepared, and it is said the plan VIII
be adopted by the committee in charge Of
of arrangements for the Boston convention
Of 80, which occurs in July.

JUDGE AND JURY INsULTED.

Anarchists and Their Sympathizers Cut
Up High Jinks in Courtroom.
Brussels, April 4.-There was an exciting
scene in law court here to-day following
the trial of two anarchists who were con-
victed of writing pamphlets. etc., denounc-
ing the military and upholding anarchy.
The prisoners were quiet enough during
the progress of the trial. but when the jury
returned verdict OF guilty, they arose,
and in the most violent language, insulted
the judge and jurymen.
Many friends aud sympathiZers of the an
archists were in the court room and they
joined in shouting imprecations against the
court officials. The attempts of the judge
to restore order were without avail and the
uproar continued until gendaunes cleared
the court room
