brothers, who came from Wales, settling
in Pennsylvania and North Carolina be-
fore the revolutionary war in which they
took part. Members of their families emil

advances of civilization. They intermar-
ried with the McNees, the Coxes, Baileys,

represented yesterday. The oldest man of
the family present was Henry b. Cox.

that he regretted the fact that the Ger

expressed the hope that the virulence of
this feeling might be ameliorated. His
Majesty added that he would contribute

The situation certainly is most unpleas-

VOW TO REMAIN SINGLE.
Bachelors and Old Maids COterie
Established by New Workers.

WILLIAMSBURG, N. Y, Sept 6.-With
solemn vows not to fall in love with each
other and rigid bylaws forbidding the
wearing of jewelry, frills and furbelows
and waxed moustaches. the Bachelors and
Old Maids Coterie has established itself
in Williamsburg. Ten young men and ten
young women living there have taken the
VOW to remain single all their lives. The
members betray their lack of faith in the
binding force of this VOW by turning the
fines into a fund which will be the only
provision for the members when they shall
reach old. age and helplessness. They
have placed the age at sixty-five. each
that age is reached being entitled to a
pension from the fund. The old maids
wear a uniform of solemn black. without
ornament, and white collars and cuffs and
bonnet of black. But they can't hide their
rosy cheeks. their saucy, merry eyes and
their tempting rosebud lips from gaze, nor
can they help being charming.
The first meeting was held at the house
of Chief Bachelor Alexander, 210 Graham
avenue. 1t was ordained, not without some
faint protest from certain ones, that should
any member discover any symptoms of a
tender feeling by a member toward any
person of the opposite sex, charges must be
preferred, and If conviction is had on a
trial by the full club the guilty one shall be
fined. The maids wear a pin in the form
of wishbone sand sheaf of hay, while
the bachelors wear a wishbone and min
iature pipe in their scarfs. The club had
hardly organized when counter-plotters got
together and organized a secret conspir-
acy. the purpose of which is to court the
"old maids and capture the 'old bache-
lors.' IL possible, and thus the new or
ganization will have a fight with an or
ganized opposition from the start.

the empire and the next year in some other
location and are for the working out of
fresh combinations on a great scale.
The operations now beginning will be
extended over territory which is. roughly
speaking. thirty miles wide and fifty miles
long. The hostile army, the Blues, is

cavalry and comprises four regiments Of
field artillery, attachments OF horse artil-

telegraphists and a commssary depart
ment. The advance of the Blues is pre-
sumed to have crossed a line marked by
the river Obra, a tributary to the Wharf.-The
and to be seeking to gain the left bank
of the Oder and possession of the railroad
junction at Observation-Disclosures.
The defending army, known as the Reds,
is made up of the Third Army Corps and
the First Division Of the Guard. 1t is some
what more than 10000 strong and composed
of $4,000 infantrymen, Il, 1000 cavalry, five
