Still Fighting Around Parks.

The morning dispatches brought en-
couraging news of a revolt against the
notorious Sam Parks at the meeting Of
the International Association Of Structural
Iron and Bridge Workers in Kansas City.
The success with which this convict, tenn
porarily out Of prison on technicality,
maintains his hold and his prominence In
the labor world is disgusting. He is evil
IDENTIFY one of those impudent rascaIs who
never know when they are squelched. He
took no hint from the contempt for him
shown by the majority Of his fellows on
the occasion Of the Labor Day parade in
New York City, but has continued his eff
forts to keep himself prominent In labor
circles-and with no little success.
If those Pittsburghers who are leading
the fight against Parks succeed they will
do the cause of union labor a great good.
Organized labor cannot afford to leave it
possible for impression to be received by
the public that it has open arms for Jail
birds convicted of crimes against ITSELF
No one has greater interest in the pres
ervation Of law and order and the admin
istration Of Justice than the man who
earns his daily bread by daily toll. 1t Is
not the wealthy and powerful who have
the most to fear from a condition Of an
archy. 1t is the man who has no one to
look to for protection except himself Such
a man is the wage Garner when he no
longer has the protection Of organized So
citey. Yet the honoring Of jailbirds is one

= When the ghost walks, as synony-
nous with salary day, is a familiar term,
but never yet saw in print an explana-
ton Of its origin said a veteran actor
Like most Of the technical expressions
of the stageland, this phrase comes from
England. In the days Of Macready, a
provincial company was playing Hamlet
at Lavenham, in Suffolk.
Salaries were constantly in arrears,
and the suspicion began to grow among
the members of the company that the
manager intended to defraud them.
"On the last night Of the engagement
the performance went along smoothly
enough up to that passage of the tragedy
in which the ghost disappears, and Ham
let says: 'Perchance twill walk. again
Then from behind the scenes came the
ghosts voice in a tone distinctly audible
to every one: No. this ghost will walk
no more until his salary is paid

WAS cLAssMATE. OF GRANT

Father Daselon Of New York, who has
been chosen as the head of the Paulist
Fathers for the ensuing nine years, was a
classmate Of General Grant at West
Point. He had then no thought Of enter
ing the priesthood and greatly surpassed
Grant in all his classes. While he has
given up his soldierly ambitions, he is
still interested in military matters, and is
keenly. alive to the progress of military
science. AS a disciplinarian he is like all
great commanders, indulgent Of individual
temperament, but exacting in his de-
mands for the perfect execution of tasks
assigned.

STRICKEN in PULPIT
Rev. T. +. Allen Suffers Stroke Of
Apoplexy While Preaching
to His People.
Pastor Of Thirteenth Avenue Metho-
dist Church Is Suddenly Called
From Earth.

Standing in the pulpit of the Thirteenth
Avenue Methodist church yesterday morn
ing, Rev. Truman f. Allen was suddenly
stricken with apoplexy. He was taken to
his home, 926 Thirteenth avenue s, and
died three hours afterward.
Mr.. Allen had been pastor Of the Thir-
teenth Avenue church for six years and
was greatly beloved by the church mem
bers, who had requested that he be re-
turned to them for another year. The
Anoka Methodist church, however, had
extended unanimous call to him and it
was expected that he would be assigned
to that church at the conference which
meets at Duluth this week The minister
had just spoken of that fact with some ex-
preston Of regret yesterday morning
when the people sitting near the pulpit
noticed that he was in pain. With a con-
.yulsive effort Mr.. Allen extended his
hands saying, Sing and then dropped
back into the pulpit chair.
+ The sick mans daughter, Mrs. Lundin,
rushed to the platform. Her father re-
tanned his presence Of mind long enough
to tell her about some papers he wanted
collected and to bid her and his wife fare
we'll. He then passed into a comatose
state in which he remained until his death
three hours later.
Rev. Truman F. Allen was born in Yer
mant. 60 years ago. He never had any
other desire than to make the ministry his
other work and in. this he was entirely sue
cessful. Before coming to Minneapolis he
had charge of a church at Anoka. He was
later assigned to the Lake Street M. E.
church of this city. Since then he has
served other Methodist church in Min
neapolis and leaves a. host OF friends and
admirers among the church going people
Of this community. 49,
The deceased was a chaplin Of the, APP

Significance of the New York Cam
paign.

In some ways the municipal election
In New York this fall Is Of more I'M
portance than the one that gave Mayor
Low his splendid triumph over Tammany
and permitted of the great reforms that
have been accomplished in the American
metropolis The Importance of the strug-
gle is not confined to New York alone
but every city and every state in the union
will be affected by the result
Enthusiastically there has been a great
awakening Of the people in the last two
or three years to the prevailing corrup-'
ton and inefficiency Of American munlcl-
pal government, and In all quarters siren
nous efforts have been made to Gust the
grafters and replace inefficiency with eff
ficiency. So far the reformatory move
nnent has been so successful that 1t Is
now sharing in the success that is wont
to reward success. 1t is popular with
those with. whom every winning cause is
popular.
The time is at hand when the real
strength of the reform movement Is to
be tested. We are to find out whether
y SOeSANAASSN -
that will enable it to win in campaigns OF
reason and fact, as well as In campaigns
Of excitement and public evaporation

and morally and the city government has
become remarkably efficient. Because of
what has been accomplished, there is lit
tie opportunity; for the fusion forces to
make such an appeal as they could two
years ago. Tammany has been out Of
power, and has therefore had no oppor"
tunity to make votes for the other side
by exhibitions of it's lack of principle and
its intimacy with corruption. There is
no longer that repulsive spectacle of the
alliance of the police and crime which
spurred men to infiict retribution thru the
ballot
The test the good people Of New York
now have to stand is whether they can
be as Jealous in unfolding good govern
HlenL dis. Luey were dTQeIlL III overthrow
ing bad government; whether they can
be as grateful for good service as they
were indignant at faithless service 1t
is to be a test of their stability and stead
fastness. Heretofore, every time New
York has rebeled against Tammany it has
gone back to the beast at the next cleo
tion-Tammany encountered only rebel
lions, not revolutions.
Is it a revolution this time or rebel
lion? The coming election will tell. II
it proves to be a revolution the men and
women who are SO earnestly laboring
everywhere for the improvement of gov
eminent in America will be encouraged
If a rebellion, they will be discouraged
H&Low is reelected the reform movement
will receive a new impetus; if he loses
the movement will experience something
Of a setback.

GROUP OF
MINES SOLD
Twenty Claims in Kennedy
District Purchased by Phil
adelphia Capitalists.

Charles H. Wander of Salt Lake
City has closed the largest actual min
ing deal that has been recorded in
Humboldt county. Nevada, for several
years.
The transaction involves twenty
claims and a consideration Of $4,000
Of which purchase price a substantial
cash payment was made through the
First National Bank Of Winnemucca,
Nevada.
The group in question is situated in
the Kennedy mining district and is
partly owned by Mr.. Wander and the
Blossom estate.
In November last Mr.. Wander sue
ceeded in interesting a strong Peiladel-
phia syndicate, headed by one no less
than William Cramp, OF the great
shipbuilding firm Of Cramp & Sons,
along with John w. Grange, a retired
banker, Samuel B. Stinson a shoe
and leather manufacturer, and George
P. Schober a wollen manufacturer,
who, after a critical personal examina-
ton Of the property and the inspection
Of smelter returns amounting to sever
al thousand dollars, decided TO pur-
chase the property.
The splendid gold values Of the ore
ranging from $40 to $1CO along with
$l2 to is per ton in silver, proved to
be the attractive feature of the prop
erty.
Mr.. Wander, who served his time
under the tutorship of the late Marcus
DAILY, at the Anaconda smelters, Mon
tana, has been retained as Superin-
tendent Of the company's entire hold
ings, with orders to spare no expense
in opening up the company's domain
in the most approved fashion.
1t is the company's intention Of pro-
viding the property with a splendid
plant in the future. In the meantime
the high grade ores will b. shipped to
Salt Lake and the low grade ores kept
at the mine.
Mr.. Wander has put twelve men to
work and as soon as bunk room can be
provided the force will be increased to
fifty.
The outlook for Kennedy at present
is very bright and the possibilities that
it might be one OF Nevadas large gold
producers is very assuring.

that [ did not think to be able to take
any duties the next day, rs my voice
was almost ohoked by the cough. The
same day / received an order from you
for bottle of your cough remedy. 1
at once procured a sample bottle, and
took about three doses of the medicine.
To my great relief the cough and cold
had completely disappeared and 1 was
able to preach three times on Easter
Day. / know that this rapid and effec-
