little penknives. These facts are undls-
puted.
Over this paragraph the Capital ran
the following headlines:
We're shot down without cause-Such
is public opinion regarding Hazleton af-
fair-Sherih Is cOndemned-Miners are
unarmed and wholly defenseless-Are to
be Osecuted-Warrants issued for Mar
tin and 1O2 deputles-Twenty-one min
ers dead.
The Journals headlines were as fol-
lows:
Official murder-So public opinion
brands the Ha5letOn hOOting-Victims
shot in the back-Fired upon repeatedly
after they started to run--None Of the
strikers armed--Twenty-one are dead
and FIVE others will dle-Forty 90 seri-
Ously hurt that they occupy hospital cots
$500 troops now preserving order In
Warrants for sherifrs and
deputies.
These papers have no word of criti-
cism now when a jury under instruc-
tions from the court denies that these
men "were shot down without cause"
and that the killing was not official
murder" or any other kind of murder.
Shooting unarmed men in the back after
they were running away and while
wholly defenseless, don't seem to be
viewed by these papers as much of a
crime now.

Botkln Is Shut Out.

Department Commander Theodosius
Botkin has had his eye on the Repub-
lican seat in Congress from the Seventh
district for some time. But he says that
he determined not to actively canvass
the field until his term had expired, be-
cause Of his belief that the Department
Commander of the G. A. r. should stay
out of politics. But Chester /. Longs
Congressional committee comes along
and sets the convention for May 8, which
is less than two weeks after Botkin's
term expires. The selection of this date
practically shuts him out Of the race, ne
says, and he thinks that an early date
was named with that object in view

Sheriff Martin, who led the posse which
killed twenty-five miners at Hazleton,
Pa, last fall, has been acquitted, and NO

even found fault with Populist papers
for asserting that the trial was farce.
Yet these same. papers vigorously de-

as is shown by the following news para

Working Butter.

Methods of butter making will al
ways be in order 50 long as people pre-
fer q choice article, says Maine Farmer.
A critical examination of the large and
fine exhibition of butter at the Tops
ham fair brought out anew the i'm
portance of what is known as working
butter. To bring out first-class arti-
Gle of butter it Is not only necessary
to have good milk, but every part of
ish must be done just about right. At
dairy exhibitions it Is now quite COM
mon to find samples of butter that are
not worked much. There has been so
much said. of late, by public instructors
at dairy conventions and dairy schools
about over-working butter that many
makers have gone to the other extreme
and do not work enough. This is more
frequently met In private make than in
the factory product. Several samples
at the Topsham exhibition were faulty
on that account. The same was true
at the Lewiston state fair. Butter not
worked enough is quite as faulty as
that which is over-worked. Writers
may proclaim that butter needs no
working As much as they please. yet
the claim will be untrue 80 long as the
present standard Of merit continues.
Those for whom butter IS made desire
a condition Of the article that is only
secured BY what IL popularity known a
working. Too much Of this working ID
injurious. teo little is defective. In the
making Of good butter there are three
conditions dependent on or brought
about BY what IL termed working.

HATS OFF IN CHURCH.
Cleveland Pastor Thlaks Sc. Paul Kne,
Not Blt HeadSeAf

Cleveland Pastor Thlnk0 Sc. Pa1l Knew
Not Bik HsadSeAf;
Rev. Dr. Carroll Of the fashionable
Hough avenue Congregational church,
Cleveland, holds that had st. Paul
known anything of the towering
denominations as women wear on their
heads nowadays the apostle would nev-
er have declared that women should
keep their heads covered while In
church. Therefore he recently re-
quested the women Of his congregation
to remove large hats during service.
and nearly everyone has complied.
DR.. Carroll had from time to time
been In receipt of complaints from
men that the high hats made It i'm
possible for them to listen to sermons
with any degree of enjoyment. Il was
at loss," says the doctor, Ito know
what to do about it, and SO I came to
the conclusion, after thinking the
matter over carefully, that the best
course would be to throw the respon-
sibility upon the women themselves.
l took counsel of several of the most
thoughtful ladies among my congre-
cation, and they told me that they
would support me in my efforts to in
duce the women to remove their hats
In church. On Sunday evening, there
fore. at the close of the second hymn.
l stood up in the pulpit and stated
that I had q favor to ask of the wo-
men. l told them of the pathetic let
ters that had reached me from the
men who had been shut out from see
ing my face and compelled to listen
blindly to my words and appealed to
them to help me in the matter by re-
moving their hats. Nearly every wo-
man in the congregation complied
with the request. There was no con-
fusion and no levity. One or two we're
a little slow and shy in removing
their hats, but when they saw all the
others doing it they quickly did like
wise. The advantage was very great
to the hearers, and was particularly
pleasing to the speaker. 1t seemed to
bring my congregation closer to me
and made the audience seem like one
big family to see the women@sitting
without hats in unaffected freedom
and homelike simplicity. I hope to
continue the practice until it becomes
custom. l have not heard of any
opposition to the movement and do not
anticipate that there will be any"
