VINO were active participants in the
great struggle. 1t is the verdict Of
this generation that the wartime feuds
and hatreds should be laid aside. and
that everything should now he ,lons

IN fact as well as in name. united ana
forgetful Of the old sectional differ
ences. 1t is the opinion Of this gener-
alton that the return of the confeder-
ate flags will work towards that end.

Harper's Weekly. a few weeks ago.
in an interesting editorial discussion
of the flag incident, said it had noticed
only one northern newspaper which
had found fault with the action of
congress, and that was an obscure
newspaper in northern New England.
Already the war department has be-
gun the return of the flags, and the re-
Spouse which this brought from the
southern men is all congress thought
1T would be. Confederate veterans and
associations, from the commander in
chief of the confederate veterans or
ganization down to the humble men Of
the rank and file have spoken appre-
ciatively and properly of the action of
congress, and officers of the army. who
for many years have favored the re-
turn, declare congress has, by this one
act done more to remove sectional bit
terness than has been done by the
north since Appomattox.
There were IL republican members
of the house military committee in the
last congress, seven of whom were
born too late to participate in the war.
One member was old enough to enlist
Richard Wayne Parker Of New Jer-
sey-but he was in Princeton univer-
sity until after the war. The other
four republican members saw active
service. One of these Mr.. Capron,

passage by unanimous consent, "at
the request of the gentleman from
Virginia (Mr. Lamb, one of the DEM

was raised and the joint resolution
was passed without division.
Before the distribution authorized
by the joint resolution was begun.
there were stored in the attic rooms
of the war department 544 flags of
the different states. In round numbers
100 of these flags belonged to union
regiments and the remaining 440 were
confederate flags taken at the close
of the war. Previous to 1887, % flags
had been returned by secretaries OF

THE MEAT CUTTERS AND EN-
PLOYERS ARE STILL HAVING
SERIOUS TROUBLE
Union Men Assert That the Employ.
ers Refused to Sign the Wage
Scale Yesterday.

The differences between the meat
cutters and the proprietors of the meat
markets in Walla Walla are still un-
settled, and from present indications
there may be something more doing
in few days.
For some time there has been diff
ference over the wage scale and the
length of hours that the butchers shall
be required to work. Several confer
ences have been held, but the employ
ers and employees have been unable
to reach an agreement whereby the
trouble could be settled.
At first the employees presented a
scale calling for $3.50 per day, which
was submitted to the propiretors.
This scale was not acceptable
and the employers offered to
pay So per day. The matter
was reported back to the union when
it was decided to accept the So per
day scale, provided the hours of labor
were reduced. This concession was
agreed to by the proprietors, and it
was the general understanding that
the matter was closed, and it looked
like a strike at the time was averted.
When the scale was presented to Gus
Harras, however, he signed it without
offering any objection, although ne
claimed when taken to task by the
other proprietors, that he did so I'M
der a misrepresentation.
Believing that the differences had
been amicab1y settled a committee of
the union called on the proprietors
yesterday and presented them with a
scale for their signatures. Much to
the surprise of the committee the en-
ployers refused to sign the agreement,
claiming that they had given their word
that the wage scale should be paid,
and that was all that should be requir-
ed of them. The union committee still
insisted that the agreement be signed,
but the proprietors held out and abso-
lutely refused to attach their names
to the document. When this action

FOUGHT WITH HER HATPlN
New Clues Are Developing in the Annie
kintop Murder Case

LITTLE FALLS, Mimi, April u.s.
Joseph and William Kintop, brothers
of the late Annie Kintop, went to the
scene of the murder and made an ex-
haustive search of the place. They
found the missing fur boa, a pair of
side combs, the girls prayerbook, and
railroad track.
They also found bloody hatpin on
the railroad track which may furnish
an important clew, as the girl told
her brother Joseph some time ago, when
he warned her to be careful, that
if she were ever attacked she would
use her hatpin.
A story of heart-rending interest Is
connected with the arrival of the girls
brothers, who have claim near Be-
midi. Their claims lie IS miles from
the railroad station, and Will Kintop
walked there, arriving Saturday to
meet his sister.
When he reached the place he re-
ceived word that she had been muir
dered, and Immediately walked back
without stopping to eat. For day
and a night he walked crossing the
ice on a three mile lake at night, feel
ing his way with a walking stick, and
when he arrived again retfaeed his
steps accompanied by his brother JOSS
eph, walked the IS mile stretch for
the third time without stopping.

THE NEW METHODIST HYMN
 BOOK.

oOOA&S
 The Hartford Post has this regarding the way Hartford Methodists greeted the new Methodist hymn book: ] "Old time Methodists gasped in amazement when they looked over the new hymnal of their church, which was yesterday seen for the first time in Itheir houses of worship.
 There were new hymns by writers who had. no degrees in divinity, and the composers were of the modern school, who gave a decidedly florid touch to many of the scores. Every hymn called in Amen" fact which had al- ready caused communicants of the old school to protest, for they declare that such finale is ritualistic and is too much like the services of the Roman Catholic and Protestant Episcopal churches.
 Among the innovations there was a new tune for R. Heber's '"The Son of God" composed by Henry F. Cutler. Another musical setting, that by Spen- Ger Lane, was also provided for 'In the Hour of Trial'
 The putting of Amen" to Methodist hymns has already stirred up grave discussions among the churches of Ire land. There is feeling among some of the older followers of John Wesley that Amen" should be spoken rather than sung.
 It is also surprise to the conserya- tive element to observe the scope which has been shown in the selection of hymns, for the one hundred and three writers include Roman Catholics, Uni tarians, Presbyterians, Episcopalians, lMoraVians, Lutherans and many whose exact belief is not known at all.
 Rudyard Kipling is represented by his "Recessional," and Tennyson's The Crossing of the Bar" has a prom inent place. Richard Watson Glider has written a hymn especially for the volume, entitled "To Thee, Eternal ISoul, Be Praise"
 The Rev. Dr. Maltbie D. Babcock. a. Presbyterian who committed suicide while in delirium, has place in the collection with his hymn, Be Strong we are Not Here to Play, to Dream, to Drift The late John Hay, secreta- ry of state, who was never known as a hymnologist, is the author of No. 4os, Ientitled Defend Us, Lord, from Every H."
 Among those who are not famed as religious writers yet who are we'll rep- resented in the hynnal are John Green lleaf Whittier, William Cullen Bryant, Mrs. Browning, Sidney Lanier Sir Waltsr Scott and Dr. J. G. Holland. John Wesley still has the principal place among the sacred music writers, and Isaac Watts has many hymns cred ited to him yet.
 k It is noted that all of the writers Iwhose 'stanzas told of an averaging God have baen retired, and that there is a general note of cheerfulness prevailing the volume. Cardinal Newman's Lead Kindly Light" has new tune com jposed by Sir Arthur Sullivan, who, although his fame as composer rests Izupon comic operas, wrote much sacred ] music in his old age.

CLANS AT CLINTON,
Men There Make Living Digging the
 BivaIves

&Ae" ""eFe MaKe a Living Digging the BivaIves. The long clam industry has been and l is a marked feature in the life of Clin- ton, and the man with the hoe and bas- ket is familiar sight on the streets. Winter and summer at ebb tides the long brown sand flats are dotted with men at work. The work of clam dig ging has it's experts as well as any oth. CT craft. and some men busily fill their baskets while others dig slowly and crack many clans by awkward hand ling of the hoe.
 Formerly clans were more nlent;fuI in the flats than now, and a man dur. ing an ebb tide could dig bushel and a half.
 father and two sons, who lived in Clinton over sixty years ago, were such famous clam diggers that their record is still remembered as digging six bush els jointly at one tide.
 The price of long clans then was b1t two shillings @ bushel. or thirty-two cents, in ordinary seasons, but in mid winter a bushel brought seventy-fve cents. Now clams bring forty cents a peck.
 The man who makes clam digging his regular occupation, digs his daily amount and is through work for the day in a couple of hours.
 The large clans called Counts" are dug in late winter and early spring. when, due to the winds, the tide some times falls two feet, lower than usual and makes it possible for the men to approach places where the clans have had a chance to grow.-Hartford Cour- ant. "5T
