for not making a fight for a temporary

Washington, Jan. 20. - The senate
turned from the grind Of appropria-
tons yesterday to listen to a speech
which partook of the character of an
grafton from Senator Towlc Of Min
nesota. Since he entered the senate a
few weeks ago on appointment of Gov.
Lind, the young Minnesotan has had
little opportunity to display his tai
ents. AS his reputation as an orator
had preceded him there was much In
terest In his speech, which was In ad-
vocacy OF his resolution for q cessa-
ton of hostilities. in the Philippines.
The ioor was crowded with senators
and members of the house of repre-
sentatives, the latter including Repre-
sentatives Littlefield, Mccall, Cooper
and others, who have been prominent

and little progress being made.
In the House.
The major portion OF the day In the
house was occupied in the transaction
Of District OF Columbia business. The
bill TO revise and codify the postal
laws which has been under considera-
ton at intervals for ten days, was
finally passed. The most interesting
feature Of the day was an attempt TO
secure a vote upon the senate bill TO
appoint a commission to consider and
adjudicate the claims Of United States
citizens against Spain arising out OF
the war with Spain which this gov
ernment assumed by the treaty OF
Paris. The matter was settled tenn
forarily by p~ostponing consideration
of the bill until next Monday.

vices were conducted by Rev. Watson
Dana. Then came the reports of the
Sunday Schools, showing that most of
them were in very good condition,
but not working the various depart
ments as we would desire them to do.
Next a paper on "The Power and
Influence of the Sunday School, by
the Field Secretary, followed by a
most excellent address by Rev. Mr..
Dixon, on the subject, why so few
Sunday School pupils attend preach
ing services and what is the remedy"
Again it was referred to the influence
of the home.
Mrs. Rachel Mccormick hada splen-
did paer on Primary Work in the
Sunday School," AS childhood is the
impressionable age and a child
learns to be distrustful only by being
deceived, more care should be observ-
ed at this time in life than any other.
The Rev. Mr.. Petty har a most ex-
cellent paper on Home Department"
in which hersMSRr 1IliSJr sfsess AAhat the
home is really the center of all influ-
ence and that as the home is, so usu-
ally are the inmates.
During the whole convention the
keynote seemd to be the responsible
ity of the parents and the influence of
the home life over the lives of our
boys and girls.
The following officers were elected
for the ensuing year: President, Jas

ident, Mrs. S. e. Hutchinson, Dawes;

The evening was given over to a
talk by the Field Secretary on the
work of the Ohio Sunday School AS
sociation, followed by an earnest talk
by Rev. Watson Dana.
While the attendance was not all
we could desire, the interest was great
and we believe the results will be
seen in greater zeal during, the yeal

New Matamoras, O., Aug. 12.-The
Grandview township Sunday School
convention met with the New Mata-
moras Baptist church Saturday, Aug
ust 10, with Jasper Lisk pesiding Of
ficer. The devotional exercises were
conducted by Miss Anna Brooks in an
impressive manner.
The regular program was then TAX
en- up. A. d. Hopper was down for
the address of welcome, but not being
present, DR.. Brooks most ably filled
the place, and the response was given
by George Mcmahon.
Rev. Mr.. Lanny not being present
to give his address ON THE Value of
the Sunday School in Molding Char
acter," it was opened for discussion
and was participated in by many
present, and it was the unanimous
opinion that the value of the Sunday
School in molding character for
righteousness was beyond all estima-
tion.
The next subject was "The Effect of
the Saloon in Molding Character" ("
and discussion was opened by Alfred
Ward. He said all was told when it
was said that the saloons ruined the
character. An animated discussion
followed and again it was the univer-
sal opinion that the effect of the sa-
loon was evil and only evil.
"How to Keep the Larger Boys in
the Sunday School, was the subject
of an. able essay by Mrs. S. e. Hutch
inson. In the discussion that fol-
lowed, the influence of the parents
and the home life was conceded as the

Coolville, celebrated for it's camp
meetings and for it's quiet, peaceable
citizens, was the scene of a murder
on Saturday night.
At about half past seven, Horace
Dewey, John Burton and man nam
ed Gray, who had been together dur
ing the afternoon drinking and loaf
ing in horse traders alley at the camp
ground, met in the village and went
to an alley in the rear of Harvey Ben
netts house, where they came to a
barn. Here Gray left the other two
men and went around the barn and
what followed was seen by a man
named Jas. Johnson, who had fallen
in with the trio, and by man NAM
ed Meeks, who came running up at
the sound of the quarrel
In this Burton said to Dewey,
you told id lie on me, and
you've got to take it back"
This precipitated fight in which
Dewey was worsted. The witnesses,
Johnson and Meeks, took Burton off
Dewey, who Immediately got up and
started to walk away when Burton
said, I'm going to kill you, and l
might as well do it now as any time"
With that he drew a revolver, bor-
rowed from Gray and Dewey, having
turned about half way around, was
shot twice. Either wound would have
proved fatal, as both passed close to
the herat. Dewey lived about one
half hour after the shooting. When
it was found that Dewey had been
worsted in the fight and he was un-
armed and that in addition, there was
wagon between him and Burton,
mob violence was threatened, but
luckily no one seemed anxious to be-
come leader of the affair The case is
all the more damaging to Burton from
the fact that had threatened Dewey's
life quite often previous to this
event, but Dewey when warned only
laughed and paid no attention.
Burton is about % years of age
and of a vicious temperament, while
Dewey was "a years of age.
Two causes are given for the muir
der. One is that both men were ad-
mirers of certain Mrs. Gray, and
the remark, "You fled on me, etc.
was intended to refer to something
told by Dewey to Mrs. Gray.
The other is that both men are
horse traders and that they traded
horses at one time and that Burtor
got the worst of the bargain. Burtor
has been accused of burglary before
but was never convicted. He is nov
