WHO GAVE THE ORDER?
Intense Excitement Over the Bloody
Affair.-Arrival of State Troops
Intensifies the FeeliDg.-Strikers
Admit There was Disorder.

HAzELTON, Pa, September H.
There was little sleep here last night
During the evening sheriff's deputies
fired into miners gathering, killing
16 and wounding 40. There is subdue
but in tense excitement, and the strai n
kept Hazelton's $4,000 people awak
and restless. This morning the arrival
of troops and the rapid mobilization at
the mines adds new features to the
ing trouble over, that order is now to
be restored; others, knowing the des-
perate feeling of those whose friends
or relatives are dead or dying from
yesterday afternoons encounter, fear
the presence of the soldiers may incite
them to violence. Public feeling is
strong against Sheriff Martin and his
deputies, though he has defenders who
urge that extreme measures were JUS
titled. The sheriff himself says he
intended no such killing as took place
One story has it that deputy and not
the sheriff gave the order TO
fire. He says he told his men to fire in
Sst v.
Friends Of the strikers admit there was
disorder and that sheriff's Command to
dispense was not promptly obeyed. Since
the stri 'e began there has been a good
deal of marching by the strikers but
up to yesterday the strikers were al
lowed to dc. pretty much as they pleased
and were in the main peaceable. At
noon yesterday the march of the
Hszelton miners was stopped aud two
leaders were ARE sted and taken to the
city. Later there was marching, and
the sheriff shouted for them to scatter
and waved his arms. In one hand he
held a revolver. The men remained
Indifferent and would not disperse.
Then he pulled the riot act out of his
pocket and read, with no better results.
Then his men fired, with awful slaugh-
ter.
The Ninth regiment of Wilkesbarre
and the Thirteenth of Scranton, arriy-
ed here this morning, and by noon the
entire third brigade of the national
guards of Penr sy lvania will be mobil-
lied here. The coming of the soldiers
was rumored, but the strikers were not
informed of the calling out of the mill
| tsry, and did not know it until the
train bearing these regiments ran into

A Check on Dancing Catholics.

CHICAGO, September 1.-THE action
of Rt. Rev. H. G. Messmea. Catholic
bishop of Green Bay, Wis, onsin, in is
suing public condemnation of the
Catholic Order of Forresters for signal
izipg the close of their state convention
with a dance, has created considera BILE
comment in lay and clerical circles of
the faithful in this city, and the sug-
gestiou of the Wisconsin prelate that
indulgence in a dance is something
akin to venal sin is regarded with
considerable surprise. For years past
dance music and the dancing pavilion
have been regarded as a neces-
sary adjunct of Home Rule,
II, bernian and other purely Cath
lie reunions and picnics in
his cisy, and il the local faithful were
prohibited from taking part in the
numerous danes that are hsld nightly,
and especially on Saturday night in
different parts of the city. the major: ty
of the local orchesiras would, like
Othel1o, find their Occupation gone.
| The local clergy are chary OF CRITICS
inc the Off vial condemnation of Bishop
Messmer, but the opinion is expressed
| that it was probably not so much the
dance as a failure to obtain permlss on
| for it. beforehand that has aroused the
| ire of the prelate. His declaration
that partic patton in a dance shows
true lack of Cath Ollie spirit is not taken
seriously by local Catholics.

The Colorado Wreck .

NEWCASTLE, Colo, September H.
Nine bodies have been identified and
six unidentified thus far. A barrel Of
bones and flesh was taken out this
morning. 1t can never be positively
known whose they are. Four
teen injured passengers were taken
to their homes en- a special train
this morning. 1t will take until late
Sunday to clear the wreck. Through
trains are being run over the narrow
gauge via Marshall Pess. The report
that Ostrander, the engineer of the
stock train ran away is unfouuded, and
it is believed his body is under the
engines, which are locked together.
He paid the forfeit of his negligence
with his life. The coroner is holding
rigid investigation. Conductor Bur-
bank, of the stock train is present. No
doubt that the jury will find that the
entire responsibility rests on Burbank
and Ostrapder.

Match 1t, Who Can.

The late Samuel Colt, well
known here, was one of the original
org anizers of THE MUTUAL LIFE IN
SURANCE Co., Of New York. At the
time of his death he held policy No.
1876, which was originally written for
only $1,000. There were So, 700 90 divi-
dends added TO this policy during his
lifetime, of which he drew and used
during his life 81, 399 %, leaving cal
ance of So, ,301 in dividends which were
added to the po icy ard paid at his
death, his hers thus receiving in cash
Sc, ,301 i, or more than double the amount
of the original policy If Mr.. Colt had
used no dividends during his life his
estate would have received SS, 70O.O9, or
nearly three times the amount of the
original insurance. What other COM
papy can show such a record: Mr.. Colt
drew out and spent in his lifetime divi-
dends amounting to four ffths of the
face Of his policy, and his heirs at his
death received in cash more than
double the amount of the face of his
policy.

W. T. Stead, writing of Queen Vic
toria's reign in the Review of Reviews
pays this acknowledgement to the work
of women: ''The reign has produced
no greater novelist than George Elliot.
No better incarnation of organizing
ability and divine tenderness than
Florence Nightingale. In Mrs. Bar
rett Browning it has seen the greatest
female singer since Sappho. In poll
lical economy it has given us Harriet
Martineau and Mrs. Fawcett. In tho
distinctively creative gift of inspiring
enthusiasm, of compelling conviction,
it would be difficult to name three men
who could be compared with Mrs.
Butler, Mrs. Booth and Mrs. Besant."

A BOOK.
Bishop Arnett Furnishes a Bible for
Inaugural Ceremonies,

The Bible on which Mr.. Mckinley took
the oath as president of the United States
is an unusually handsome and costly
copyright of the Testaments made espe-
cially for the occasion IN Ohio ard pre-
sented to the new president by Bishop
Arnett. of Wil5arforce colIege, a colored
institution in the Buckeye State, on be-
half of the African Methodist Episcopal
church. It's cOyers are of blue morocco.
with satin Innings, satin panels and gilt
edges. A gold plate in the center will
be engraved with the following inscrip-
ton: william MsKinley, President of
the United States OF America. %Inaugu-
rated March 4. 1897"
The book on which lie was sworn into
the highest office within the gift of the
people was a matter of quite decided sem
timent with President Gle veland. Mr..
Cleveland asked the privilege of being
sworn on ii little red Bible which had
been given to him by his mother in his
boyhood, when he first left the family
roof-tree, and he took the oath at the
beginning of both his terms on this
book, which he treasures fondly. The Gus
tom, however, has been for the United
States supreme court to furnish the Bible
on which the president takes his oath of
office, and this tradition has been carried
out by the clerk of the court since that
tribunal was established, except on the
two occasions when President Cleveland
was installed IN office. Mr.. Mckinney,
clerk of the supreme court, who has held
the Bible on which Garfield was sworn
and every president after him, has al
ways marked the verse which the presi-
dent touched with his lips, and after the
inaugural has presented the book made
historic by this event to the president
or his wife. When Mr.. Mckinney pre-
scented to Mrs. Hayes the volume on
which her husband had been sworn, he
inquired what passage he had kissed. The
OF In - tL.A N.
mics e~ncompassed him like bees. but he
would destroy them Mrs. Hayes re-
marked that President Hayes would de-

At the second Inauguration of President
Grant the clerk opened the Bible and
handed it to Chiee Justice Chase. who
held ii to the lips Of the president. They
rested upon these verses from the olev-
Cnth chapter Of isiah:
"And tho spirit OF the Lord shall rest
upon him. the spirit of wisdom and un-
Outstanding, the spirit Of counsel and
might. the spirit of knowledge and Of
the fear of the Lord"
"And shall make him of quick under
standing in the fear of the Lord; and he
shall not judge after the sight of his
eyes, neither reprove after the hearing
of his ears"
The first inauguration of George Wash
ington in the federal building in New
York on April 80. 1889, was delayed bv
the failure To provide a Bible. Just as
the arrival of Washington was announced
to congress Chancellor Livingstone dis
covered that there was no Bible in the
building. He was master of st. John No.
l of Free Masons and happened to re-
member that there was a Bible i'm the

sent to bring the book and Ii Is preserved
