NEVER kNEELEo IN CHURCH.

Washington once said that on the
preceding Sunday he had received
very lust reproof from the pulpit for
always leaving the church before the
administration of the sacrament; tnat
he honored the preacher for MS IN
tegrity and candor; that he had never
considered the influence OF his ex-
annie: that he would never again
give cause for the repetition or the
reproof: and that, as he had never
been a communicate were he to De-
come one then it would DE imputed TO
an ostentatious display of religious
zeal arising altogether from his eie-
waited station. Accordingly he AFTER
wards never came on the morning OF
sacrament Sunday. though at other
times a constant attendant in the
morning.
Nellie Custis. too. tells us that
Washington always stood during the
devotional part of the Service, and
Bishop White states that his behay-
ior was always serious and attentive;
but, as your letter seems to intend an
inquiry on the point of kneeling dur
ing the service, | owe it to the truth
to declare that ! never saw him in the
said attitude"
Probably his true position is des-
cribed by Madison. who is quoted as
saying that he did mot suppose that
Washington had ever attended to the
arguments for Christianity and for the
different systems of religion, or in
fact that he had formed definite opin-
ions on the subject. But he took these
things as he found them existing, and
was constant in his observances of
worship according to the received
forms of the Episcopal church, in
| which he was brought up"

wAsHlNeToN's BIRTHPLACE.


Mount Vernon has become a great
mecca fer the American tourist; at
Yorktown and Valley Forge stand
stately reminders of the first gentle
man of America, while in every part
of the lay the smallest mementoes of
his life and actions are religlously
preserved, but in magnificent decay on
the lower Potomac lies Wakefield
farm, which was associated with his
early life. A simple granite shaft
marks the spot where George Wash
ington was born, and few bricks and
stones are all that remain of his early
home.
The old country mansion was
burned early in the last century. but
the brick chimney. within whose arch
four people could sit, and the corner
stones, with a portion of the founda-
ton, were saved. Shortly before the
civil war the historic farm passed into
the hands of a family which at first
showed some appreciation for Its as
ISOLATION. A succeeding generation,
however, tore down the chimney and
the remnant of the walls in order to
secure the bricks. A marble slab
bearing an inscription giving the date
of Washingtons birth and other in
formation, which had been set into the
great arch, was removed to the old
family graveyard; but in placing it
beneath two ancient fig-trees planted
by the mother of Washington it was
broken, and its fragments lie there to-
day, mossgrown and vine-covered.
1t was in 1895 that the national
government erected at Wakefield a
miniature copy of the Washington
monument with the inscription

STREET CAR MEN CROSS
Possibilities of Strike that May
Tie Up Chicago's West and
North Sides.

Chicago, Aug. 26.-Grave possibilities of
a strike that may tie up all the street rail
way lines ofthe W est and north sides
confront the oXcials of the Union Trac-
tion company. To-day by an oVerwhelm-
ing vote the local union of the Anaga
mated Association of Street Car Employees
refused to accept the proposition made by
President Roach several days ago. The
overtures Of the company which included
an increase of 1c an hour in wages, the
dissolution of a rival employees associa-
ton and the employment OF none but
union men, was ballotted on by nearly
5000 men, yesterday. The votes were
counted this morning and although no
public statement was made it was esti-
mated that the radical men carried the
referendum against the company by nearly
ten to one. .-
An agreement between the union and
the railway company exist whereby dis
agreements shall be settled by arbitra-
ton. William Mahon, international presi-
dent of the street car men, tried to exert
his influence to avert any strike action
and to urge that the union live up to its
laws. A rupture, however, occurred be-
tween the local officials and President Ma
hon and he left their meeting with a
statement that If the men struck without
trying arbitration the general union would
not support them in the issue.

ABRAM S. HEWITT'S VIEWS.
He Says the Strikers Deny the Rights

He Says the Strikers Deny the Rights of
Employment and of Labor.
Bar Harbor, Me-, Aug. 2s.-Abram S.
Hewitt, when asked. whether arbitra-
ton was not the only means that re-
manned whereby the great anthracite coal
strike might be ended and whether or
not it was an equitable solution of the
difficulty, said:
What is wanted to end this destructive
conflict is not arbitration but the stern
repression of violence and the assured
protection of the miners who desire to
earn a livelihood for themselves and their
families. To this protection they are en-
titled and the government which fails to
afford it is. a reproach TO republican in
stitutions. 80
ITO rule or ruin is not policy which
commends itself to the American people,
who believe in the old-fashioned rule that
he who demands equity must first do
equity. ..-
"The operators cannot yield without be-
ing dlsloyal to the owners of the property
and to the Workmen who carry on the
operations. 1t would be far better to aban-
don the business Of mining anthracite
coal than to concede the demand Of any
men or set of men who deny the rights of
employment and of labor upon which the
whole structure of free government is
founded, and to which this country owes
its phenomenal progress. In my Judgment
therefore, the operators are only doing
their plain duty in declining to arbitrate
a question: which is in the domain of con-
science and involves the personal liberty
Of the Individual. =. 81
''The only solution of the trouble is for
Mr.. Mitchell to order the strike off with
| out delay. When this is DONE. if there be
| grievances to be abated, they will be
| promptly adjusted between the local op-
orators and the local unions

HOLDS TO HIS VIEWS
Mayor Jones Still Thinks He Can
Best Serve the City by Not
Becoming Candidate.
Has Made No Formal Answer to Pc
tition of Citizens-But Will
Do So Tomorrow.

Acting Mayor David P. Jones has in no
wise altered his views as to what are his
duties toward the city of Minneapolis. He
does not believe that it is his duty to run
for office at this time. He Is as much
convinced to-day as he was a fortnight
ago that the police department needs a
thorough fumigat tion that a moral Obli-
cation rests upon him to superintend the
work and that the work would perforce
be neglected to a greater or less degree
If he should give some portion Of his time
thought and energy to the exacting de-
mands Of a political campaign.
There is, therefore, to-day, very little
chance that Mr.. Jones will become a
candidate for mayor. He has not said
this in SO many words. but that is because
of his consideration for the many citi-
| zens who have interested themselves in
the movement to induce him to enter the
race, because he wishes to put his ans
wers to them in as formal manner as
their petition came to him, having given
it full consideration.
A delegation representing the committee
| which was behind the movement to bring
! Mr.. Jones out as a mayoralty candidate
| called on him this morning. They pre-
| sented long petitions which had beer
| gathered in one day laid before him the
results of several straw" votes and urged
| him to recede from his stand and come
out as candidate.
AS the matter was presented to Mr.
| Jones thus formally he felt that forma
| answer was due and this he will prepare
! this evening at Lake Minnetonka in th'
! seclusion of his summer home. This il
| itself indicates clearly that he does no
intend to become a candidate, in tn
light Of the ruling of the county audito
| his affidavit should be filed to-day.
! When seen by J rna reporte
this afternoon Mayor Jones had nothln,
definite to say. AS on the day before h
expressed a lively appreciation of tn
work done by such men as E. J. Phelps
H. B. Gardner, Q. B. Kinnard, Walter Eg
geston, J. T.. Wyman, A. G: Paul an,
others who had devoted so much of thei
time to the movement. but he could no
see his way clear to fall in with thei
plans and desires. .-.. ..

weather. Not a third of the small grain
has been threshed, and very little stack

raised from an acreage that exceeds Dy
one-fifth that Of any previous year. 4

wages are high. Threshing has begun In
a small way, but will not be in full swing
until the first of September. Owing to tho
late spring the flax acreage is about one
half larger than last years, covering more
than half of the cultivated area, and tho
yield will be proportionate. Feed crops
are more in evidence this year, due to the
high prices. -.s, .-<
Humboldt, Iowa, Aug. ga careful ex-1
animation of the grain fields in all parts
of this county shows a condition close to
calanitous In the fiat sections a large
acreage was too wet to be entered with
binders, and many fields have been utterly
abandoned. The tiling was wholly unable

! two months. Everywhere great stretches

| most every bundle exposed shows the
green growth Of the rotting grain. Very
little stacking has been done and most

fered from wind and rain and are heating
and giving off the odor of decay.
