have been granted an increase of wages
to the extent of ten cents per day. The
minimum scale paid is s2.75 and the

This was done and the management

on Sunday nights, excepting on spe-
cial days such as Easter. etc.
4. That we favor in our choirs the
rendition Of sacred music in I worship

1t is not the intention Of the ministers
to be arbitrary about the matter and
before any change Is made in most of
the churches the church board must be
consulted, but 1t was intended as an
expression Of the ministerial notion
about church choirs in general and the
hired singers in particular, where such
singers are not christians. The adop-
tion Of the resolutions will doubtless
create a great deal of comment and
discussion among church members.

THE MOTHER
IS KNOWN.
Probable That the Grand Jury
Will Consider the Case.
THEY MAY CALL 1T MURDER
Said That the Mother of the Babe Found
At Alliance Is the wife of a Soldier
who Has Been In the
Philippines.

Thus far no witnesses have been sub
poenaed by the grand jury to relate
what they know of the death of the in
FAINT that was abandoned at the depot
in Alliance recently, and which later
died at the Fairmount home. 1t is
claimed the child died of exposure, and
IL 1t did the crime is murder. 1t Is ex-
pected the grand Jury will look into the
matter before 1t adjourns The ALI
ance Review has the following con-
cerning the case:
The woman who is the mother Of the
infant abandoned here was thought to
be respectable and was employed in
prominent Clevelanl hotel dining room.
Later she made her headquarters at a
house of questionable reputation, hav-
ing been discharged from the hotel
when it was found her character was
not to the proprietor's liking. Since
the arrest of Frances Nichols the
mother of the infant has been keeping
in hiding for fear of her identity be-
sick ever since the event. A Review re-
porter was in conversation with a
Cleveland man who claims to know pos
itively the identity of the woman. He
was reluctant to speak on the subject
but the reporter succeeded in eliciting
information to the effect that the child's
mother is married woman whose hus-
band is now and has for some time
been in the regular army. Sympathizine
friends, who claim to know the facts
leading up to her downfall, are now
caring for the luckless woman.
Her husband is supposed to be in the
Philippines but is expected hom" at Iny
time, and for this reason his wife
sought to hide her shame as quickly a.
possible.

A staff Of eminent physicians and sur
geons from the British Medical Institute
at the urgent solicitation of large
number Of patients under their care In
this county, have established a
permanent branch Office in this city in
the Wernet block. rooms 16 and 1S.
These eminent gentlemen have decided
to give their services entirly free for
three months (medicines excep-
cepted) to all invalids who call
upon them for treatment between now
and May 18th. These services consist
not only of consultation, examination
and advice. but also of all minor sur
gical operations.
The object in pursuing this course IL
to become rapidly and personally ac-
quainted with the sick and afflicted
and, under no circum ances will any
charge whatever be made for any SER
vices rendered for three months to all
who call between now and May Is.
The doctors treat all forms Of diseases
and deformities and guarantee cure
in every case they undertake. At the
first interview a thorough examination
is made: and, II incurable, you are
frankly and kindly told so. also advised
against spending your money for useless
treatment.
Male and female weaknesses, catarrh
and catarrhal deafness, also rupture.
goitre, cancer and all diseases Of the
rectum are positively cured by their new
treatment.

by one or more Of his chief associates,

will never do to close the front doors.
SO to impress the public with the fact
that nothing but wet goods may be pur-
chased after closing hours in the other
departments, the stock in the front
rooms will be covered with curtains.
This may remove gooi excuse to get
into the tap rooms, but the grocers
mean business and their stores will be
closed so far as selling merchandise is
concerned.
The clerks were to meet and organize
branch union Sunday, but there was no
quorum. The clerks have gained their
point on early closing, and they argue
that it would do them no good to organ
ize, especially as the grocers themselves
are in favor of closing the stores at an
early hour

by a freight train on the c., NJ. & st.

did not notice the killing of the man.
and nothing was known of the sad af-

aroused by the discovery of particles
of the remains on various places of the
engine. The regular passenger train,
which follows closely after the freight,
