GRAND MARSHAL ELECTED
LABOR DAY PARADE WILL BE In
CHARGE OF GEORGE GORDON.
Max O'Mara VIII BE His Assistant on
that Disqualification at the
State Fair Grounds.

The Labor day committees, which are
making arrangements for the celebration of
Labor day, met yesterday morning in the
Molders' Hall on East Washington street.
The chief interest of the meeting centered
around the election of the grand marshal
and an assistant for the occasion. There
were two candidates for the office of grand
marshal-George Gordon and Frank Colon
bia. George Gordon, of the Iron holders
Union, was elected. Max OMara, of the
Hardwood FiniSherS' Union and business
agent of the amalgamated wood workers.
was elected the assistant. The remainder
of the time was given to the report of the
various committees, all of which reported
that matters were progressing favorably.
The celebration will be given at the state
fair grounds, for which a contract has al
ready been signed with the State Board of
Agriculture. The exact nature of the pro-
gramme has not yet been decided upon. A
later meeting will be held about the LIST
of August to prepare the programme.
However, il is certain that the feature of
the entertainment will be the parade. With
Gordon, who is past master of tactics,
in charge, this part of the programme as
sures it's success. The parade committee
is also making elaborate preparations.
The privilege committee reported that it
had made arrangements for the signing of
privileges at the store of Gribben &s Gray,
l54 North Illinois street. A report was
the unions of that city, of which there are
twelve including about 500 men, will join

STORIES OF THE TOWN.

In an Irvington home there is young
son of five years who is the delight of the
neighbors. His first name is Louis. He is of
much flesh. rosy-cheeked and, like most
boys of bright parents, gifted" with many
witticsms. Although but five years old
Louis has already earned the title from his
neighbors of the sage" His reputation for
bringing to light many things unknown to
older minds has made him respected.
In the household lives Louis's young
aunt. who has a sweetheart. Recently the
young man and his sweetheart were sit
ing on the front porch. Louis and a num-
Der of companions were playing a few yards
down the street. Suddenly a cry went up
from the crowd and instantly Louis ap-
peared from the crowd with his arms over
his eyes and crying loudly. The young man
and LOuis'S aunt went to his rescue. For
a short time Louis could not speak. When
he had recovered his speech sufficiently the
young man asked: Are you hurt?
mo- replied Louis, between sobs.
We'll, what are you crying for?" broke
in the aunt.
Il thought it was going to hurt" replied
Louis.
Most men are of an observant turn of
mind, but travelling man that worked"
this city last week had most of them

his wife he did" the large department
stores. The man was intent showing
his line of goods, while his wife was on the
lookout for novelties in women's dress

went, closely scrutinizing the display of
goods on the shelves and counters. The
travelling man, after transacting his bust
ness with the manager of one of the stores.
accompanied his wife on trip through the
store. The man did not look for novelties
in skirts and uncut cloths He was closely
looking at the discipline of the store. In
this store, by the way, are great number
of young women After the travelling man
and his wife had walked for half an hour
they returned to the front of the estab-

the store.

The Cab Drivers Union held an open
meeting last night in the Iron holders Hall.
on East Washington street. The object of
the meeting was to afford an agreeable
evening to the men and at the same time
create interest in the union by bringing be-
fore the men the objects of the union and
their duties as members. The Cab Drivers
Union is one of the newer organizations in

These men of the Levee who are ever
ready to serve the public, sitting on their
high seats, exposed to the rain, the snow

friends, and that by their union they can
better their hard conditions as in no other
way 1t is notable fact. the cabmen say,
the amount of good that the union has done
in the short time Of its existence.
The Sunday evening meetings are mere
ly social gatherings where the men can
meet and talk over the incidents of the
week. An abundance of ice cream. cake and
lemonade was served last night, after
speeches by the different men.
Merritt Long, well-known character on
the levee, is president of the union and has
the fight his fellow-craftsmen are making
at heart. There are about thirty-fve men
in the union, with several applications for
membership now in the hands of the secre-
tary.
At the Labor day committee meeting yes
terday it was decided that no cabs no,

The Feminine Pose.

New York Sun.
The athletic girl is having her troubles
For several seasons past she has vainly
attempted to stem an increeping tide of
fFill and furbelow, of butterfly daintiness
and cOquettish grace, and this summer she
finds herself confronting puzzling prob

She must cultivate a new pose If she
would bs in fashion, must not only don
fluffy frocks, but also adopt new manner.
Moreover, she may not simplify the situa-
ton by complete and radical transforma-
ton. but must lead a double life.
For sports and outings have not gone out.
Golf and tennis, riding and swimming, all
the athletic accomplishments. still have
their place in the fashionable girls train

Mannishness is no longer smart. This is
the day of the truly feminine, and, though

wardrobe, founced and frilled petticoats,
floating scarfs. billowing lace and mousse
line. fanciful Louis Quinze shoes, flower

school cOquette are in evidence, are the
height of the mode.

FALSEHO0D TWICE TOLD.
West Virginia Lynching Fake and Its
Dangerous influence.

Dangerous influence.
Buffalo Courier.
After one report of a horrible lynching
said to have taken place in West Virginia
had been denied, the story was repeated
with so much detail as to make its probable
ity strong, the telegraphed accounts COM
ing from Bluefeld and naming the town Of
Devon as the scene of the tragedy. Now an
other denial is entered, the Parkersburg
Sentinel certifying that the entire state
ment was lie made out Of whole cloth. No
crime was committed Of a nature to prompt
a lynching; no one was lynched; nobody
had a thought of faying anybody else alive.
The only crime connected with the case
was that of the rascally correspondent,
whoever he may have been, who Hbeled
the community and defrauded the news
buyers By sending out his invention. The
New York Tribune says of the matter:
1T is to be hoped that the romancer who
spread this fiaying tale VIII be found and
can be punished for sending false reports
to the newspapers, which in some States
is a crime, and ought to be in all. Such
reports not only harm the community
which they libel, but by criminal suggestion
they promote lawlessness elsewhere This
lyuching fever seems TO be spreading.
symptoms Of 1t are seen even In New YORK
and New Jersey, and all good citizens
should unite to stamp 1t out as they would

Enough dreadful things are happening to
alarm the country without resort TO the

yoking il is manifestly spreading, and be-
cause the punishment for such crime in
MANY of the States is inadequate. The
black fiend who outraged a farmers little
child i'm this State deserves death, but can
only be imprisoned for term or years.

A THREE-RING SHOW IS COMING.
Wallace's High-Class Circus VIII Ex-
hibit Here i'm the Near Future.

The Wallace shows have completed all
arrangements to show IN this city on July
q. The Wallace show has advanced rapid
ly during recent years until it has reached
the front rank of tented enterprises, and
is one of the biggest on the road 1t adver-
tises a greater number of features than
any other show, and, judging from the COM
ments of the press, the commercial traveller
and others who have seen il, the Wallace
show produces all it advertises. With the
Wallace shows from six to eight acts are to
be seen at one time in the three rings, hip
podrome track, on the stage and in mid
air. The management of a show the size OF
Wallace's does not expect the people to be
able to watch all of the many features,
but they arrange to have several acts OF
various kinds at the same time, so that the
spectator may take his choice and enjoy
those that he admires most. Since people S
tastes differ. ii is necessary for circus
the size of the Wallace show to be cosmo-
politan in character in order that all may
be pleased, and those who have seen 1t
know that it pleases and satisfies the most
critical.

In explaining the low price which recent
~ ruled for French government securities
we stated that the large sales by French
religious houses was a factor which must
be taken into the accounting. According to
a European financial paper these sales have
been very heavy, and, We limited might
be the case, the money derived from the
sale of these rentes is being invested in
British consols. The financial correspond
ent OF a French paper said that large or
ders of consols had been executed i'm the
British market by buyers known to be act
ing for some of the religious bodies that
had been expelled from France. and had
taken up their homes across the channel
The driving out of these orders also re-
suited in the withdrawal from the French
savings banks of quite an amount OF de-
posits- Such movement is but natural,
the religious orders properly wishing to
have their money invested in the country
where they were allowed to establish their
quarters and live In peace.
