In regard to the deac- oness, he could not tell whether an appointment would be made from the Congregations home of deaconesses, or from this state. He said that sev- eral Congregational churches in this city had deaconesses, and the plan was working very well.

These are rugs of the very best makers, which sell regu- larly from $3O.00 to $35.0o.
 The reason for such a radi- cal price reduction is found in the mismatching of the pattern, which in some cases varies a. number of threads, and in some hardly at all.

lain Breaks Into Ring and An
nOunces Hagan's Death.

Philadelphia, June lin a grueling
prize fight in the presence Of officers, ma
rlnes, and sailors OF the United States
ship Mississippi at League Island to-
night. Private Marine Hagan received a
blow over the heart from John Hogan. a
Philadelphia professional. that caused his
death
The final bout OF the smoker that was
being given on board the battle ship was
drawing 20 a close, and the marines and
jackies. perched upon the turret. were
cheering themselves hoarse when the
chaplain. with white face and trembling
lips. burst through the ringside and held
up his hands
Wait" he cried: our friend and COM
rade, Private Hagan. who fought so va
liantly in that last bout. has now passed
into the great unknown. In his pursuit
OF athletics he has died. Let all be silent
while we pray for his departed soul"
The cheers that were rending the night
air a moment before were stilled.
Hagan was a well-built youth. and was
/ the pride Of the Mississippi
! The captain Of the Mississippi said that
the police had no authority within thJ
navy yard. but would probably arrest Ho-
/ gan when found in the city.
