THE ZEAL OF CoNvERsIoN.-Joseph
Medill Patterson, in a late New York
speech to stock-yards workmen, said
that the enormous working capital left
him by his father enabled Chicago
packer, to literally compel labor "to
work for him or starve." His la
borers are paid from 81 to $l3 per
week, and ]. Ogden Armour pays
himself 100000 per week. He en-
ploys $4,000 people who he compels to
drudge without intercession or hope OF
relief. as waning energies come on by
age or disease. The Patterson plan is,
however, to elect . Socialist President
and q Socialist Senate and House,
which is about as practical or possible
as control OF wind or tide.

T,,r PoprI.AND GAS COMPANY RE-

THE PORTLAND GAS COMPANY Re-
SORT TO SLUGGING.-The managing
editor Of the Oregonidn, E. b. Piper, it
seems, has piped to some purpose
against the Portland Gas Co. when
they send thug to assault him in his
Office. The assailant is q lawyer and
his name is" johnson. He is clerk
in the office OF 10 Teal, counsel for
the gas company in the investigation
now being carried on by the Oregonian.
and there is scarcely any doubt but
that the assault was understood, if not
suggested, by the company. Such
methods Of conducting dispute only
weaken the side OF the assailant, and
it is surprising that everybody cannot
see that it can have but that effect.
A resort to personal violence can only
be excused by passions OF the moment,
and deliberate resort TO the meth ode
of brute force place the aggressor be-
yond the pale of respect.

A LIVING BUD OF PRoMIsE.-Those
who have wealth at their command,
are enabled at times TO create beauti-
fully artistic surprises for entertain.
ment OF their guests. An account OF
one lately given by Mayor Miller, Of
Franklin, Pa, at the Hoffman House,
New York, was unique in several
respects. The guests were seven men
of title and rank, princes, counts, a
duke and a two baron, and the ladies
were from Mrs. Astor's "79." The
floral decorations cost fortune, and
one Of these was surprise. An i'm.
mense American Rose was carried in
by four walters and deposited on the
banquet table. 1t gradually opened
its petels disclosing q beautiful, be-
jeweled, blonde woman, who emerged
and took a place OF honor with the
wondering guests at the table.

\ BEACE of Hon TONED HoLD-Crs,
1t seems that neither wealth nor
rank go for much, at times, even in
tie lands Of titles and exalted defer.
ence to station. W. X. Vanderbilt
WAS twice refused admi,tance while at
Monaco. Italy, at the famous Monte
Carlo gambling resort, by the obse.
quious ushers at the entrance Of the
gambling rooms, during his late tour
by auto. His first exclusion was on
account of the color of his cravat, and
the second because his pants were
turned up at the ankle. An explana.
ton was probably unnecessary for the
first disciplinary rule, for it is said,
whether truly or not, \ gentleman is
known by the tie of his cravat," but
the latter condition was explained by
the valet, in response to Willie's in
dignant protest. He said: "Mon-
sieur must know that coins sometimes
fall from the tables, and they might
get caught in the turned up end of
monsieur's psntaloons." So much for
the Vanderbilt wealth. Now for the
kingly indignity: Prince Henry, of
Prussia, ran his automobile into
farmers team, near Schwerin, a fort
night ago, badly frightening the horses.
The Prince compensated the owner
literally, but after he had passed on,
the latter telephoned the police at
Schwerin, who stopped his Royal
Highness. He explained the situation,
but as they seemed to be in doubt.
Prince Henry departed. with the re-
mark "You know where live"

HOLD
MASS WITHOUT
LEGAL AUTHORITY
Must Answer for
Their Actions

PARIS, Dec. 18.-sfnce six o'clock
this morning masses have been held
in all the French Catholic churches at
frequent intervals. Except for the
evident strain and expectancy, there
was nothing beyond the unusual
crowds to indicate the crisis. At all
the churches government agents were
present to get the names of the off,
Ciattng priests. Later slxtynine
priests were summoned to the perfec-
ture of police to answer the charge Of
saying mass without legal authority.
Both sides are doing everything pos
slble to win public opinion. "Perse-
cution" and "Confiscation" are the
words used by the Catholic party.
Patriotism" and mo outside inter
ference with affairs of Frenchmen'
are the slogans of the autl.clerical
party.
Anxiety now centers on how far the
government will proceed against the
priests.

WAYNEsBuRe BANK CLOSED
TEMPORARILY, BUT WILL
OPEN AGAIN SOON.

The closing OF the doors OF the
Farmers and Drovers bank at Way
resburg yesterday caused much talk
in this city, but upon due inquiry it
was acertained that none of our banks
are in any way involved, nor does
the closing affect any local people so
far as known, except that one person
here owns a small amount Of stock,
says the Morgantown Chronicle.
Bank Examiner Cunningham arlrv,
ed in Waynesburg on the 10 o'clock
train yesterday and by order Of the
comptroller of the currency closed the
doors Of the bank. There was no ex-
citement about it and no one believes
but that thet rouble is only temporary
aud that the banks condition is safe.
The trouble came by loaning up too
close to the margin in the present
tight condition of the money market.
The banks capital stock is 100000
and the directors are personally liza
BILE for twice that amount, The sur
plus and undivided profits are $780,
COO, which makes safety fund Of
S95O.OOO, which is almost equal to, the
amount Of the deposits so that this
makes the depositors safe.
The bank has about $l,60O,OOO on
loans, and has but a small amount
of overdrafts. The loans are only $780,
900 beyond the reserve. The total
resources of the bank are considera-
bly, in exces OF $2,OOO,OOO.
The general opinion is that there
was no necessity of closing the bank
as its condition was better this morn
ing at the opening than for several
days past.
There is no cashier at present, ]. B.
z. Rlnehart having resigned some
months ago and his successor not yet
being elected. Senator D. S. Walton
is president; ]. B. F. Rinehart, vice
president, and Harry George, a cousin
Ct Bank Examiner Cunningham, is as
slstant cashier.
All believe the bank will be open
for business again soon

He evidently fell near the door while
endeavoring to get out Of the burn

done to save the life Of Mrs. Gerber
