from a member of the Hargis faction
to ex-senator Hargis, at WinsloW,
said that Belvin Even, who was talk

FIGHT IN CATHOLIC CHURCH
WOMEN AND MEN FOUGHT HAND
TO HAND AT JOLIET, ILL.
The Women Collectors Circulating
Through the Church Started the
neutrality-suspicious. of 1000 in
an Uproar-BIood Flowed Freely
Police Had Hard Time.

Joliet, ILL.,, May 4.-Women and men
Sunday fought hand to hand with
each other and then fought hand IL
hand against the police in the Sla-
vonic Roman Catholic church. The
trouble was started by several women
as the collectors were circulating
through the church. There were 2Oo0
men, women and children in the
church when the fight began. In spite
of all the protests of Father kollar
and others, the church members
fought with fists and pieces of fur
niture, knocking each other right ana
left. Some one ran from the church
and called the police for help. In
few minutes a patrol wagon full Of
policemen drove up TO the church, anu
the patrolmen entered the edttice,
which was filled with whacks, bumps,
din and tumult. Bloody noses and
lacerated faces were numerous. The
men had been penned in by Gordon
of angry women, who pelted the
stronger sex with clenched hands and
books.
Bullets Flew
By the time the police arrived some
of the combatants had fed to the
street. AS the policemen entered the
church those ON the outside returned
to the fight, armed with clubs, stones
and revolvers. Those within left off
fighting with each other and unitedly
beset the police. Those from without
fired into the patrolmen from the rear.
Women and children cried out in ter
ror at the sjghI3 and many men ran
from the church or leaped out of win
dows. Then the policemen drew re-
volvers and threatened to shoot uu-
less order prevailed. The affrighted
complaints ceased fighting and the
policemen began to make arrests. OF
all the persons injured none had to
be taken to hospital. Father Kollar
who entered into the midst of the
fighting in the effort to calm his par
ikhioners, escaped uninjured. Many
arrests were made during the day, but
no one knows exactly who started the
fight or what itwas about. s

Island Pond. TermOnt.

Dear Sir: We hear you're doing a
good business, and we know already,
without your telling us, that you use
good paint and do good work. We've
got big business too-been at it l49
years-making good paint, best paint in
the world, Devoe Lead and Zinc.
"Fewer gallons and wears longer
that's the reason in short. 1t takes
fewer gallons of Devoe Lead and Zinc
than of mixed paints to cover house,
and it wears longer than lead and oil or
any mixed paint.
Smith & WILDER, Cambridge Springs,
Pa, write:
One of our painters says Devoe is the
best paint for painter to use when TAX
ing work by the job, as it goes farther
and covers better than any paint he ever
used.
Here's the experience everybody has
with it. The dealer who sells Devoe
gets the bulk of the paint business of
his town. The painter who paints De-
voc gets the painting of his town.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvoE & Co.,
7 New York.

Special Town Meeting.

The special town meeting held Mon
dav attracted an unusually large num-
Der of voters and taxpayers, so keen was
the interest in the matter to be dis
cussed, namely, to see if the town would
vote to cancel the bond of the u. A.
Cane Shirt Co. and renew the lease OF
the factory building to the company
After Mr.. Cane had stated his position
in the premises very eloquent speeches
favoring the canceling of the bonds were
made by II. B. Amey, Esq, DR.. +. F
Norcross, S. D.. Hobson and Geo. 5
Robinson, each showing Enthusiastically
the value of such an institution to the
town. But this all our people knew
Perhaps they were not quite prepared
for the statement that since the shlr'
factory was established 10 years ago the
GRAND list of the town had increased
5000. 900, but such is the fact. Wher
the all absorbing question was put tt
the voters the walls of the opera house
rang with all emphatic EYES," and the
bond was Cancelled. This action made
necessary new contract between Mi
Cane and the town, and on motion
committee of three, Messrs. Norcr'ss, .
d. Hobson and l.. j. Payeur were elec
ted, with hardly dissenting voice, t'
make such contract, and the meeting
then adjourned. The action OF th'
voters shows that they are keenly alive
to the best interests of the town, ant
with such loyal citizens the town Il
bound to push ahead. Success comes &c
community when its people Thoroughly
believe in it and their works show thell
faith. Let us continue to be active ane
public spirited, encourage every laudaDl'
enterprise, and stand up for our town.

house and now the band meets in the

doing they will clear the rats all out of
the village. Boys come up to Willoughby
Lake this summer and give our rats a
few pieces, and if you can start them
