An Open Letter to the Christian Churches of liaucouk County.

DEAR BRETHREN: It will be with a great sense of pride that the Desciples of Chri.-t in Hancock couuty, can point to one of the most handsome churches in the State belonging to their brethren. That it is situated in your county-seat, which is becoming noted for its thrift and improvements, will do more to bring the ca.u=se we all love so well before the people than any other one thing that could be done. JUSD .such a house is now completed, we cannot describe it to you so you can realize its completeness and beauty. You must see it to have a true conception of it. It will be dedicated to the service of Almighty God, on Lord's Day, Feb. 23, 1896. Elder Z. T.Sweeney ex-Counsul General to the Ottomau Empire, and pastor of the Christian church at Columbus, Ind., will conduct the dedicatory services for us. You should not fail to hear him. We ask you to dismiss all your services on that day, and make your arrangements to attend without fail. Pledges will be taken payable on the first of September annually for three years. This will not necessitate you paying cash if inconvenient to do so. Think over this matter carefully and prayerfully, and come determined to help the sacrifices brethren in their great enterprisa for Christ. You want to have afellowship in this holy work. This is not written to get you bene to give money, but to every true Christian, man or woman, this is a matter of holy interest. Let nothing reasonable prevent your attendance.

Your Brother in Christ, W. M. GARD, Pastor Christian Church.

ORGANIZED.

NOW DEMANDING UNION WAGES OB NO WOKK.

Mr. D, A. Hayes Vi«e-president of the Bottle Blowers Has Succeeded In Getting the Non Union Men at the Bottle Glaas

Works to Organize.

The non union glass blowers held a meeting Thursday and organized an association of skilled mechanics and informed Mr. Streeter they would no longer work for half wages. The men justly claim that they should receive the ^same pay for the same work as all other men in the glass industry.

D. A. Hayes, Vice President of the Bottle Glass Blowers Association went to Pittsburg today to hold a conference with the Window and Flint Glass Blowers Association.

While here Mr. Hayes has made many frieuds in the trouble with Streeter & Co. his conduct has been reasonable and conservative. In his efforts to unionize the factory he has appealed to Holweg & Reese several times but they refused to aid him. He appealed to Streeter offering to leave the trouble to an arbitration committee of Greenfield's business men of Streeter's choosing, which Streeter would not do. Mr. Hayes went before the public and plainly stated the case. He will return ia about a week and hold another mass meeting aid he hopes to gain the aid of the influential citizens of Greenfield to give their influence in changing the factory from a n*n union to a union factory.

A Chicago traveling man was in J. Ward Walker's Friday afternoon and was astonished at the large number of patrons there and the big business they were doing. He said within the last few weeks his- business had taken him in the big stores at Dayton, and Springfield, O., Richmond and six other cities of the 8ame size. In none of these stores had he seen the amount of business that was then being transacted at the Mammoth store. Full and complete lines of goods, courteous, (air treatment, low prices and continuous advertising have given J. Ward Walker & Co. a very desirable and enviable trade.

Obituary.

Orval Beecher little son of Michael and Lucy Beecher, was born December 13, 1890, and died February 5, 1895 age five years two months and twenty days.

It is so sad to part with one we loved so well so sad to think little Orval should be called away although we knew »e could not get well. It was so hard to speak the last farewell and take the last look upon him but we know his sufferings are o'er and now he is at rest. His loving parents who will listen for hia sweet voice will never hear it again on {earth but our farewells have not been spoken forever. His remains were laid to rest February 8,1896 at Mt. Lebanon cemetery.

But Oh! the little hands are cold, The bright blue eyes are dim For God has taken hi in to rest

To dwell lor God with him. MINNIK M-KIER.
