CHURCH IN POLITICS
RELIGIOUS FORCES FIGHTING
FOR CONTROL OF CITY.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
ALLEGHENY CITY, Pa, February IL
Graft and the brothel must go is the slo-
gan of the most remarkable campaign ever
waged for mayor in Allegheny City. With
the banner of reform raised on high, the
ministers OF the gospel and the church peo-
pie are arrayed in a desperate struggle to
wrest the control of the city from the party
which has ruled it for the past quarter of
a century.
This unique campaign Is sequence of
the anti-graft and anti-vlce crusade which
swept over the city one year ago, and which
resulted in the conviction on charges of
grating of the superintendent of police,
one police captain, street commissioner
and two policemen. and the punishment of
the proprietresses of 200 houses OF i'll re-
pute.
That crusade revealed the fact that IN AL
legheny, which is famous for its many
churches and beautiful public parks, the
city officials collected graft from various
sources amounting to over 100000 annual
ly; that in this city of 10000 souls there
were 4l0 brothels: that the city sheltered
over 5000 disreputable women and 500
known thieves, and that two wards were
given over almost entirely to vice and crime.
These facts were enough to arouse the
ministers, and they have united in an or
Eanizaton known as the Federation of
NIuICIcS III dIl SlluedNbl " IOOl OUT DIdnCH
and stem the city administration at the
coming municipal election, February 90 to
which they attribute this appalling i'm
moral condition of affairs. Each congrega-
ton has been organized as an auxiliary of
the federation. There Is no party and no
creed recognized. Roman Catholics Pres
byterans Methodists. Episcopalians, Luth-
Grams, Congrega tionalists-all are working
together.
The fight is directed against the repub-
lican organization, gwhose candidate for
mayor IS Chas. F. Kirschler, a well-known
banker. The church peoples candidate IS
Geo b. Logan business man unknown in
politics, unframed in its methods and who
never held a public office except school di-
rector
Rousing mass meetings are being held
almost nightly throughout the city, but they
resemble church gatherings more than DO
ftical rallies A minister always presides,
the meeting is opened with prayer and dis
missed with the benediction, and a church
choir of mixed voices relieves the monotony
of speechmaking by rendering such Cos
pei songs as Onward, Christian Soldiers
and Il Need Thee Every Hour"

the Britgeville Tribune.

From the BrldgeVille tribune.
Frequently typographical errors creep into
newspapers. and the result is often humor-
Gus, bringing forth many laugh, even on
serious subjects. The Tribune has had moro
than It's share OF these blunders OF late.
Last week we" got three items "au balled
up" in the rush TO get out the paper. Tho
effect was startling, and If the Tribune had
been believed the laws OF nature would
have had to be suddenly reversed. 1t was
all caused by Transporting a couple Of lines
Of type. J. D. Curry. one of our most
respected citizens, has been I'll for some time
with rheumatism. The Tribune made tho
startling statement that as a result OF his
sickness he had given birth to a twelve
pound boy AS a matter of fact that boy
belonged over In the home of Samuel Cox
In the item relating to the birth Of Mr. and
Mrs Coxs underground boy the Tribune
said it happened while tie whistle blew"
Now, of course, ii is possible that q whistle
was blowing at the time. but We doubt IL.
That line referring To the whistle blowing
should have been under the item about
Riley carrying the dynamite.
The Tribune sincerely regrets the blunder.

Twins Marry Twins.
From the London Express.


An extraordinary marriage will take place
IN Paris next Tuesday, when the twin
brothers Charnteau, both of whom are
painters of repute, will marry the twin
sisters Renaud, two beautiful girls who are
only IS years of age. The best men at the
double wedding will be another pair of
twins who are cousins of the twin bride
groomE.
Aiphonse and Gabriel Charnteau are SO
absurdly alike that they have been the
victims of ludicrous mistakes all their
lives. Their mother is a widow, and on
this account one of the twins was ex-
cused from military service.
Wishing not to be separated from his
brother, he went to live In the town
where his twin was quartered. He was
arrested four times during the first week,
and accused of appearing In public with
out uniform. He had the greatest diff
Guilty in convincing the authorities that
he was not the conscript.
The brothers are so fond of each other
that they had resolved never to marry.
But they both fell In love almost stimuli
taneously Their sweethearts are also al

Both couples will live In the same house

has been planned as an ornament to the
suburb, and, although not very large,

been drawn for much larger structure
and these will be carried out by adding
to the first building when the growth of
the congregation demands it.
Like many other churches, the First
Methodist Episcopal Church of Petworth

Make 1t plain in your opening talk that
the whole field of work before your society
but have faith. and that IL the members
believe Christ's words and but let Him
dwell in them and work through them they
can do all things There would be no such
thing as member saying 1t was of no use
to go after this one or that for they would
know that If they went. after asking the
blessing of the Lord, and earnestly praying
for the conversion Of the souls for whom
they went, they would know that they
would receive that soul as an answer to
prayer.
The last few minutes of the meeting out
line some work that ought to be done by
your society and ask the members TO spend
a season of prayer for strength and power
to do that work and for Gods blessing
upon 1t.
Faith, like a mustard seed, can move q lofty
mountain
And do full many mighty deeds quite past all our
recounting.
a little timely zeal is good. it doth the heart IN
spre;
little spark Eliminates and sets each soul On
fire:
A little charity is sweet, and when In trfbulation
little patience brings the soul large peace and
consolation.
A little daily eheerfulness, little self-denial,
VIII make lighter troubles less and help each

A little union serves to hold the good and tender
hearted,
IT'S irner than a chain of gold, and never can be

For in Gods kingdom, all must know. the least
