CYPHER COMPANY Rtferencrs First National Bank. McKeesport, Pa. Treasury Trust Company, Pittsburg, Pa. CALL-BOY LAST WINTER. Son of George Hope, of Near Conneaut Lake Indications Are He was Knocked Into Creek by a Train or Fell in and, Having Only One Arm, was Drowned.

The body of the man reported in Thursday's Evening Republican as having been found in French creek proved to be George Hope, son of George Hope, of near Conneaut lake. He leaves two brothers, William and Frank Hope, and a sister, Mrs. Etta Bailey, the latter of Geneva. His mother is dead. The body wac found lodged in some willows on the bank of the creek about one mile north of Buchanan Junction, by George A.

Gerard, who. with his father, was hunting and fishing. The young man's dog first discovered' the body, and the animal's peculiar actions led to an investigation, following which the proper information was given. In the absence of Coroner Stockton, Sheriff Robert P. Marshall drove to the place and brought the body to W.

E. Byham's undertaking rooms. The man had been dead a long time, from three to four weeks, Mr. Byham thinks, and the body was in bad condition. The face appeared badly bruised, and at first it was thought this might have been caused by blows, possibly by being struck by a train, but later Undertaker Byham, who has seen a number of similar cases, was convinced that the condition of the face was due to the natural action of the water and weather.

In the man's pockets were found a gold-filled watch and chain, the watch stopped at $1.65 in money, a woman's new waist, cards bearing the name "George Hope," and other minor articles. The deceased was well known in Meadville, where he worked last winter as a call-boy for Erie railroad employes. He had lost his left arm near the shoulder, and was apparently about 40 yeais old. So far as has been learned, he was last seen in Meadville about four oeks ago. The mnn's friends were notified and arrangements have been made to hold the funeral to-day and lay the body to rest in Cieendale cemetery.

Literary Monthly Board Selected.

Allegheny College, April 18. A good bunch of students were on the athletic field this afternoon to see the first lineup of the season, and not one of them went away disappointed, for the article of ball put up by the collegians was first class for this time of the year. True, some of the players need to brace up quite a bit to make certain holes on the diamond secure, but on the whole the work of the squad is very creditable to Allegheny. The first team had no trouble downing the second, Benedict displaying his superiority over Brown on the rubber. Mason, the colored, shortstop, surprised the onlookers to-day, both in the field and at the bat.

He handles grounders in a masterly fashion and covers his share of the ground. To make room for him here, Nelson was shifted to second. The only one of the outfielders who is sure of his position as yet is "Boney" Horn, who put up a crack game in the left garden last year. He is doing good work at pitching, too, although he was not used to-day, and will likely be used as a reserve member of the pitching staff, as well as an outfielder. The Literary Monthly board for the ensuing year has been made known recently by the commission empowered to select it.

The commission consists of the editor-in-chief of The Litrary Monthly, W. T. Mackey; the editor-in-chief of The Campus, L. Labounty, and Dr. Frank C.

An attempt was made today to kill Rev. Matthew Yan-kola, pastor of St. Joseph's Slavonic church, here, with dynamite. A heavy charge of the explosive was placed under the entrance to the parsonage and tore out a portion of the porch, shattered all the windows in the house and splintered the front door. There have been factional troubles in the church for some time.

One faction has asked for the removal of the pastor, but without success. Several weeks ago Father Yankola received a letter from the Black Hand threatening him with death unless he left the city. He says the dynamiting is the work of members of the union opposed to his retention. The majority of the male members of the congregation are mine workers.

A reader writes The Tribune-Republican regarding a rare incident In school life which recently came under his observation in Greenwood township.

This little lady is Jennie Bradley, and the writer challenges a better record.

A Woman Tells How to Relieve Rheumatic Pains. I have been a very great sufferer from the dreadful disease, rheumatism, for a number of years. I have tried many medicines but never got much relief from any of them until two years ago, when I bought a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. I found relief before I had used all of one bottle, but kept on applying it and soon felt like a different woman. Through my advice many of my friends have tried it and can tell you how wonderfully it has worked.

The Herald says of star and production Miss Hortense Neilsen opened an engagement at the National theater yesterday afternoon in "Mrs. Dane's Defence," a play by Henry Arthur Jones, the English dramatist. Miss Neilsen is an actress of considerable ability and she gave a highly creditable performance. The role of Mrs. Dane is a.

difficult one and calls for acting of a remarkable degree of ability, but it is a pleasure to note that Miss Neilsen proved equal to every demand. Throughout her work was characterized by an earnest and thoughtful study and it carried conviction in every line. In the stronger scenes of the play she was excellent. In the scene with Sir Daniel, In which she discloses that her past life was stained and that her defense has been made up of falsehoods, she acted with much power and feeling and t'howed the possession of considerable emotional force.
