"Monday afternoon there camo a vociferous demand from A. L.

And, as expected, this Incident was followed by a lengthy harrangue through the paper which is largely sustained for the use of two or three people who like to have such a thing handy as a convenient means, to use an old-fashioned expression, for In defending its position in the matter, the Courier says, in part: The Courier Monday morning callin! attention to the disgraceful incident, whereupon that paper was called upon to retract what it had printed. The Courier <11.1 nothing of th<> kind, but In this morning's Issue publishes the affidavits of Mrs. Boring and Jamce A.

According to the Courier, Miss Olefin lay at the home of Mrs. Anna Boring two hours before she was admitted to the Dullois Hospital, and then It became necessary to procure a writ of entrance from a Justice of the Peace before she was taken In.

MUSICAL ORGANIZATION PiiuxMUtM wiiey People Meet to Promote Interest In Tilings Musical. SAN FRANCISCO, Cul., July 8— Fourteen tirst-cluss battleships of the ofAmerican navy under command of Rear Admiral Charles S. Sperry, sailed yesterday evening for Honolulu, a trip of 2,100 nautical mil™, and which will form the llrst leg of the voyage which will have its „nd at Hampton Hoads next spring. Responding to the salutes of the Presidio, the stately white vessels drew anchors from the rendesvous ground In San Francisco Hay, steamed out through the Golden date and were lost from view on the western horizon, illmy, tell-tale columns of black smoke being the last visible vlstlgc of the departing llect. At ten knots speed they went, turning their backs oil the city where they were given such a rousing welcome two months ago. Thy following' itinerary han been arranged for the fleet after its departure from Honolulu: Arrive Auckland, 3,850 nautical miles, August 9. f Leave Auckland August 15, arrive Sidney, 1,284 miles, August 20. Leave Sidney August 27, arrive Melbourne, 5 75 miles, August 2U. Leave Melbourne September 5, arrive Albany (King George's Sound) 1,350 miles, September 11.

In fact, the entire cate- . gory of ugly terms then and there 'employed by Mrs. SwJntek all eounded alike to them and all were equally I un.offensive as far as the aeathetlcal I standards of the witnesses were con- I cerned. However, they did object to being awakened at five o'clock a. m., I or thereabouts. But as both women were talking at the same time the witnesses could not designate which of the two, the prosecutor or the de- fendant, was the disturber, and which not. Witnesses agreed that the noise made by the two women last Friday morning was sufllpiont to disturb the Egyptian Sphinx after a protracted deafness of several thousand years, but they were unable to discriminate in the matter of which one produced the major portion of It.

No such candidate. It Is thought, could be secured, and an attempt to draft one, It Is believed, would result in failure. Incidentally the harmony of the program would receive a severe jolt.

In line with the thought of making the Chautauqua "stand on Its own legB," attention Is called to the fact that there Is no hold-up advertising schemo or anything of the kind connected with the prlnteJ matter being issued. The ticket sale Is now on. Mr. Maglnnis says they can use a few more ticket sellers, so the way Is still open for boys and girls to earn some money. The management of the (,'lyiutuuiiua have asked the Spirit to emphasize the fact that no offering will be taken at the Sunday evening meeting. Not that people are not willing to contribute to any worthy cause, but because they want to see the  "stand on Its own legs." They believe they are offering to the people of Punxsutawney who cannot go away for a vacation a week of solid,entertainment and education which will be well worth their time and the small sum it will cost each one, and also believe that when the people realize I what the Chautauqua is the patronage will be liberal and cheerful. The* theatre has been closed until the opening of the Chautauqua, and is being thoroughly cleaned and renovated. Electric fans are being installed, and everything possible Is being done to make the Chautauqua a success. Instead of the usual services In the various churches of Punxsutawney next Sunday evening a union service will be held in Jefferson Theatre. This decided at the regular monthly meeting of the Punxsutawney Ministerial Association yesterday, upon the request of the promoters of the Punxsutawney Mid-summer Chautauqua. The Chautauqua vesper service will be used, enough copies having been secured to give one to each person in attendance. Rev. C. W. Miner, I). I)., pastor of the First Methodist episcopal Church, will preach the sermon, taking as his subject, "Higher Education." The music will be furnished by a union choir under the leadership of Messrs. Frank Beck and Charles j Jenks. That a treat is In store for I our church-going populace is evident. Communicated. TWO tflNEKS CnUSHED. niter. The1 offlcvl* of Uitf xwocltloB.y, M. C.

' KITTANNINQ. Pa., July 8—By a fall of roof coal at Sagamore mines yesterday two miners were crushed. Pletfo Mertano was killed Instantly and Dominic Bordero wu probably fatally Injured.  About forty Punxsutawney musicians were present and an organltatttin was effected with tho following officers, who are to serve for six , monthi". Much enthusiasm for the project was manifested, and a second meeting Will be held In the Baptist Church next Monday night, when a iprge crowd Is anticipated and all arrangements for going ojiead will he announced.W. P. .Coulter, president; F. H. Beck, vice president; W. F. Herpcl, secretary; Joseph M. Williams, treasurer and W. B. Hampson, director. The object of the organization, It was explained, is to study the various cantatas and oratorios and Inspire a conccrted movement for the study of music In this town. Pursuant to n call for a convention to take the matter up and put it on a firm hauls a meeting was held In the Baptist Church and a Choral Society with Prof. W. B. Hampson, of Wilkinsburg, as director, was organised. Steps Monday night were taken which have for their object the arousing of a greater degree of Interest among the musically inclined In Puns, sututvney. As the night wore on the bitterness between the factions In the lobbies increased and several times list fights were only prevented by the interference of bvstandrs. This was particularly so in th cases of New York and Pennsylvania factions. Both Donnelly and Brennan argued that Guffey is the logical leader of the Democratic party in Pennsylvania,] and strenuously denied that he (Guffey) had ever made any deal with the Republican bosses in Philadelphia, whereby they had aided In defeating •the Bryan men in that city. They stated that Guftcy had worked unceasingly for the success of the Democratic party, an declared that were It not for his efforts and his liberal contributions to the party funds. there would be no Democracy In the Keys'one State today. When Pennsylvania was reached Charles Donnelly and William J. Brenrian presented the side of the Guffey men, while J. Berwood Daly and Levi Mc Whist on argued against tho continuing on the roll those delegates who are friendly to tho Pittsburg boss. Daly and McWhlston accused Guffey of selling out the party In Philadelphia to the enemy In return for support at the party primaries. Ther declared that he had personally begged every member of the last State Convention to vote In favor of an un- Ir.structed delegation to Denver as u tribute to his years of-service to tne party. They stated that he had promised absolutely to support Bryan, but failed to keep his promise and radical measures had to be taken by the chairman to keep the peace during the various heated discussions. Throughout last'night and this morning the three leaders, Guffey, of Pennsylvania, Roger Sullivan, of Illinois, and Patrick H. McCarren, of New York, fought hard for the perpetuation of their political power, and when the committee finally began tho preparation of its report the chasms had been so widened that the body Di mocratic in Pennsylvania, New York and Illinois are likely to be sore for a considerable length of time to come. The committee is said to be badlv divided on all questions in dispute, but a:i amicable settlment is expected before adjournment, and there will be no minority report. It now looks as though the Sullivan delegates in Illinois would be seated, and likewise the Tammany allies, from Kings County, N. Y.; that the Guffey men will either be dislodged in the Pennsylvania contests or the votes be divided with the Bryan men. It is probable that the Johnson delegates will be seated from the District of Columbia.It was agreed this morning that the Dubois delegates from Idaho, would be continued on the roll, although a strong fight is being made in Committee to compromise and split tho vote. few of the cases in public, directed z*'(hat all others be heard behind closed doors. ' So severe were the strictures on some of the bosses, that the Com- mittee, after hearing the evldenco In a It Is expected that soon after noon the Committee will be prepared to report to the Convention when it is called to order. This morning the comimttee had been in practically continuous session since live o'clock yesterday afternoon. Most of the time was spent in hearing evidence in several of the contests, and tho early hours of the day were spent In executive session, debating the meritg of the testimony. DENVER, Col., July 8. — After what was probably as stormy an allnight session of a Credentials Committee as was ever held at a Democratic National Convention, the permanent rc.il of delegates Is still uncompleted.
