This is to be an immense affair. Not much short of a thousand young Methodist workers will be here to take part and enjoy the great gathering You cannot well afford to miss hearing some of the representative speakers that are to be present. Among them will be Dr. Joseph F.

Berry, of Chicago, editor of the Epworth League Herald; Bishop W. F. Mallalieu, of New Orleans, and Bishop J. M. Thoburn, from India, and many others.

The convention will be opened at 2 30 on Tuesday afternoon.

Time Has Wrought a Change and a Big One Too. Ever since our opening in the millinery department we have proclaimed the fact that we had on exhibition 1,000 ready-to- wear hats. Our claim, made in good faith and an honest representation at the time tbe advertisements were issued, does not now hold good.

Time and Altoona alert buyers nave wrought a big change in the situation. Last evening there were only a little over half a thousand bats on the stands despite the herculean efforts of our big and busy trimming force to keep pace with the great inroads made by the buyers on the hat stock. The tremendous rush of orders for trim-med-to-order hats has crowded everything else to the background. It is utterly impossible to keep pace with the purchases of the ready-to-wear stock. Every inch of the work-room is crowded with expert and active milliners, whose nimble fingers have done wonders the past few weeks.

Notwithstanding the extraordinary rush, we will say that it is our desire to cover every lady's head in Altoona who favors us with her patronage. To accomplish this we will exert every effort, work over-time and make every stroke count for the people our patrons. Come in, place your order and be content to take your turn. -it-Last night Mr. A.

S. Helfrich, manager of our great cloak department, left for the east to make an additional purchase of furs and coats and capes which we didn't think would be necessary so early in the season. As in the millinery department we have found it utterly impossible to keep pace with the buying. More furs gone already than in a whole season before! More coats sold in a week than we expected to sell in a month this year. It's easy to do business when you please the people.

At 5 38 yesterday afternoon Alexander Bice, an elderly man of 64 years, when walk ing between the rails on the railroad track at Carlim station, near wiinamsDurg, was struck by train No. 426, receiving severe contusions of the face and body and having his left arm taken off a little above the elbow.

The old man was a little deaf and the train came upon him before he had time to get out of the way. He was brought to Altoona on the same train tnat naa so near ly taken his life.arriving in this city at 7 08 p. m. The ambulance conveyed him to the hosDital where he had an amputation ui tne left arm and his other injuries were cared for. Late last night he was getting along as well as could be expected.

A Citizen Assaulted.

When W. C. Stearns, of 1406 Eleventh avenue, 'was pausing tnrougn tne cuiverc last evening at 5 30 last evening he noticed two men ahead of him tormenting a little cripple. He reprimanded them for their action and passed on for some distance. Happening to turn around he noticed a small group of people had gathered near the men, and thinking some new violence was being offered to the little boy he went back.

When he came near the place where the men were he heard the one reproacn tne other for his actions. He also spoke to the fellow, telling him he was a coward to misuse a poor cripple in the manner he had done. The man replied that it was his own boy and that he had not hurt him. The last thing that Mr.St-earna remembered from this time until he woke up atJiis boarding place was the fact that he turned to go on down Union avenue. One who saw the whole affair says that Mr.

Stearns had not gone more than a few steps, when the man he had been talking to passed him. ust as he did to Mr. Stearns stepped into a hole in the boardwalk and stumbled again-1 him. The fellow walked on a few steps, but suddenly, as if his anger had gained the mastery over turned suddenly about and struck Mr. Stearns, knocking him from the boardwalk on the hard pavement.

For several minutes he was completely unconscious. When he bad revived somewhat he was taken to his home where he recovered. The worst effect of his unpleasant experience is a bruised and scratched face. A Memorable Event Ended. Last evening the three days' "opening" advertised by that stirring Cook, Salmond Cowden came to a close.

Every person found a place ready for him and got what we wanted in short order.

Morrow, are tasteful and elegant. There are ten arches formed of cheese cloth in pink, blue, orae, green, red or white white colors, so arranged that the general effect is that of perfect harmony. Two thousand five hundred yards of this cloth were used in the decoration. The lace cur tains, which adorn the windows, were also furnished by Mr. Morrow.

There are two large arc lamps and nu merous gas jets for the illumination of the Bcene In the hall are fourteen tables, decorated with flowers, eaeh one having a large banquet lamp upon it, and being adorned by rare China and silver.

It does not seem right a man who owns a property half a mile from this sewer should help to pay for it. This is the way the average cmzn reasons on the subject. They mita.ke,however,the "district sewer from the local sewer. This district sewer is built to receive the drainage from all parts of the Second and Eighth Wards, and any person living along its line who taps it must pay the same assessment that every one in the district pays Besides he must pay an amount equ-il to what it will cost any other property holder for his share of the cost of a local sewer, by which access is gained to the main sewer.
