a relative of Tot" Mullen, who Is

the first battle, saying:
1T was pretty hard fight for
awhile. but when we charged and let
out one of our Yankee yells It was
more than they could stand. In one
charge our regiment killed slxty-four

many are lying in the jungle. ] went

Yesterday afternoon very handsome
collection of altar linens, and vest
ments worn by tie Roman Catholic
clergy, was placed on exhibition in the
ladies' parlor of the Carroll Club. The
articles are shown at this time on ac-
count Of the presence of so many cler-
gymen of the diocese of Wheeling, at
the Holy week services at the Ca,she-
dral Ladies will be particularly pleas
ed with the exhibit, as the vestments
were all made by hand. The active
members of the Tabernacle Society
of st. Joseph's Cathedral, cordially in
vite the inspection Of ladies and all
others who may be interested, during
this afternoon and evening.
The display includes very hand
some benediction set Of brocadsd sat-
in, trimmed with gold lace. There is
also a set of vestments of black bro
cade satin, for celebrant, deacon, and
sub-deacon, of solemn requiem mass.
Another benediction set is OF purple,
as worn by the clergy during the
Lenten season. Another set OF vest
ments is reversible, dark on one side,
and white on the other, designed for
priests who are engaged in mission
work, and who are unable to carry
many vestments about with them.
Besides these pieces there are altar
linens, and innumerable smaller vest
ments.
This work was all done by half
dozen of the active members OF the
Society since Christmas. 1t is mag
nificent specimen of fine needle work,
comparably very favorable with the
most costly vestments made anywhere.
The Tabernacle Society is engaged in
a very commendable work. 1t has
been in existence only about eighteen
months, and has already disposed of
a large number of vestments. 1t is its
purpose to supply all the clergy of the
diocese of Wheeling, at cost which
is much less than would be paid if $
cured elsewhere. The Society also
furnishes, free of cost, all necessary
vestments to priests who have poor
missions, or are unable to afford pay
ing for the vestments. The ladies
were particularly gratified yesterday,
afternoon and last evening, to hear
many expressions of pleasurable sur
prise from the ladies who examined
the articles.

About ll:45 the young man broke the
fastening from inside with Ratchet
and opening the door to come out was
confronted by the officers with drawn
pistols and placed under arrest. There
vas nothing found on him and nothing
Was taken from the store. The prisoL-
er's statement was that ne had been

been in the habit of going in at all
