ELECTION OP OFFICERS 1 The President rihI Treasurer lie-elected by n Unmillnous Vote I.lst of the County Vice Presidents Appoint d Plttston the Place For the Next Convention. The twenty-third annual convention of the Catholic Total Abstinence Union of Pennsylvania closed at noon to-day in the Annunciation hall on South Chestnut street and this afternoon the delegates went to Lakeside accompanied by the An nunciation T. A. 11. band and several members of the town branch of the union. This evening the delegates will leave for their respective homes, Btartlng from Lakeside. President I). T. McCarthy, of Will iamoport, said in addressing the conven tion yesteruay : You have assembled here in this thriv ing city of Shenandoah, under the aus pices of tho St. Patrick's T. A. II. Society, of which there is none more worthv con nected with our union. To report on the Btrenuous efforts your societies have made during the year in grappling with the monster evil of the day, the fearful vice of intemperance, it will bo Interesting to consider with what success your efforts nave been crowned, ami tne means em ployed in each locality to encourage and convince tho-te ol our lattu or the ne cessity of being total abstainers and ardent workers for the principles insti tuted by that should bo patron of his faith, the Rev. Theobald Mnthew. The past vear has been an eventful one in temnerauce circles, and especially so can this be said of our National League, for every advantage has been taken by them to give our urincinlfB publicity and the advantages of membership made plain to an, witntneespeciai-purposeoi increasing the vast armv of total abstainers in America. Hut, with all this, we have but to open our eyes to see tuat tue miseraoio vice Is still very prevalent, for It Is still no uncommon slant to see the drunkard reeling through our streets with the Divine spark of reasou dimmed. If not extinguished within him. The being made to God's own likeness has degraded mm lower man tne unite; tne tears, agonies and heartrending grief of the .t.,.i....i ...tr. .1... u...... poisoned physical condition of his chil dren, uur purpose, wnicn nas received the sanction of the heirarchv of our holv church In America nnd the blesstnir of the Holy See, is to strengthen the crusade airalnst this the greatest social evil of our times, the evil of intemperance on which must rest all questions of reform for the elevation of the whole people. We are well aware that in all human efforts the achievements fall far short of the desired result. Fond hones are brighter than their realization, sp every ardent worker must be prepared to find disappointment mixed with success. How true this is in tne work of a temperance advocate as he has, in many 1 istances, to conquer dis eased human appetite, sordid, self-interest and rise up the noble part of man to soder manhood. Hut on nn occasion like the present, when looking backward, what a me sense of pleasure. If not entire grati fication, throngs our memories on the forceful glorious achievements which are written on tue records or every society connected with the glorious old Pennsyl vania Union. Records which are endowed with grateful nnd blessed tours, and strengtiieneu in tneir lorcemi endeavor by the grace compelling prayers of count less thousands of mothers, wifes and children, who proclaim the euloules of i ms organization wnicn is mentioned with a blessing by all good men forit hits given strength to tho weak, courage to the faltering, inspired with christian hope anu neaven-s rewaru men anu women bordering on the deep abyss of human depalr. It has banished hunger and poverty from many n family; it has dried the glistening tear of sorrow and uuguish on the eyelid of many a drunkard's wife, driven the blush of sliauie from many a drunkard's hild by awakeninir from a helpless wreck a man. It Is thriving to protect the weau. to save tue erring nnd to raise up the unfortunate. The relations existing between this union and Its i-ocletles have been of the most pleasant nature, .Sot one single In cldeut transpiring to mar the existing harmony. The same may be said of the relations existing between societies nnd their spiritual directors, which Is gratify ing news to us. Our members nre all obedient children of mother church. from whom we have received so many blessings, nnd to her faithful clergy, who have always had the best lnterejt of our societies at heart. Composed as we are to-day, largely or young men, both ardent and energetic, knowing and practicing the virtue of total abstinence, and bound to teach to all men by word and example the advantages It oilers, wo cannot but feel hopeful for the future welfare of this grand old union that good and true men labored for years to bring to the degree of perfection that it is en joying at the present time, thelronly hope of reward being the desire to see perpetu ated for all time this organization that keeps her children In close commune with mother church and gives to our country sober, law-abiding, liberty-loving citizens. The convention re convened in the An nunciation hall at eight o'clock last overl ing, The business was of a routine or der, pertaining principally to the receint of reports of committees.

THE E A GLOSE ONE, Shenandoah Started Out With ltush, llut the Visitors Tut on a Check and llecome Dangerous There Were a Num ber of Close Decisions, The Jeanesville nnd homo base ball tennis met at the Trotting park yesterday afternoon before a good-sized crowd of spectators and for nearly two hours strug gled for supremacy. Shenandoah took a decided lead In tho second inning, but Hnfter that failed to score aud tho team was kept busy trying to hold tho visitors down nnd preventing them from tieing the score or taking n lead. The game was a pretty good one and the pitchers of both sides did well. Setley made his re-appearance in the box for Shenandoah and showed that his arm Is not ns bad as some peoplesupposed It was. Harris, the new catcher, made his first appearance with good eilect. He is hard worker. There were several close decisions in the game and the Jennesvllles were Inclined to "scrap" over them, but fortunately there were one or two level-headed men nmnnc them who succeeded in keeping the game going. shiiltz. the Ditcher who was Inlurpil In the game with Ashland, made his re np- penranceon the diamond, nnd ISancroft of Ashland, plnyed with the home tenni. In the eighth Inning the visitors got dan gerously close to the home club by in creailntr their score to seven runs nnd when the home team failed to score in the first half of the ninth Inning the spectn tors prepared themselves to witness n grand wind up by the Jennesvllles, but It inneu to materialize, although ronr ot their hardest hitters were at the bat. Miller succeeded In getting on first bnse through an error by Mulderlg, but wns put out on second on Shultz's throw In to l'omnn and no others got on bases. There were no brilliant features In the game, but the contest wns of a kind that held the Interest of the spectators and kept them In doubt ns to which side would win until the last batter was declared out.

Pottbvillk, June 21. Accordlngltolthe ruling of Judge Weldman, yesterday.Jthe Commonwealth was compelled to rest'.its case with the testimony of HelTnerland limine. After the examination of the latter, the lawyers for the defense raised the point thnt the Indictment was defec tive in that It failed to set forth specific ally what It was proposed to prove by the witnesses, nnd ns a result J. H. Honsber ger, Theodore C. Heller, John Wuensch nnd IJenjnmln John wero not allowed to testify as witnesses for the Common wealth. The court held n private examination of John Woodward, the man alleged tj have approached witnesses for the pur pose of intimidation. Woodward i .1 mlttetl he told Heffner and llonsberger as friends, to he careful what they test fled to, as he overheard a remark that Allen would proceed ngainst those who testified that lie had promised them posi tions. For this service he said he received 10 from Lawyer Ulrich. The Common wealth wanted the court to place Wood man under the chargo of the District At torney. But Judge Weldmnu would not give a decision uutil he had consulted Judge Bechtel. Mr. WUhelm opened to the Jury for the defense. He said the case was creatlug a good deal of noise, but when the defense showed up George Heffner, who was iu his political dotage, nnd had not made much of an Impression upon the jury, Mr Allen would not be ns black ns he was painted. He also said they would show up Charles House, as both he and Heffner have figured frequently in court. He stated thnt the Commonwealth was at tempting to make a criminal out ol a man with n clear record by the testimony of two confessed criminals, as both Heffner and IlntiM had confessed they made pro positions to Allen. Mr. Wilhelm then re ferred to what he termed a class ot men who hod worn nil the hair from the tons of their heads trying to purify Schuylkill county politics. Hn condemned that Re publicnnism which attempted to mnken candidate throw a'iile his manhood and become the tool of chronic ollice-seekers George Heffner, he said, was either in his polltlcnl dotage or the biggest political liar iu the world, and the defense would show him such. The defense would show how Heffner came to introduce Allen through North Mnnhelui township Mr. Wilhelm paid his respects tS Charles House, lie called htm an "old blister" and said he never did nn honest day's work In his life. He lived by his wits aud on the prostitutes of the town, nnd wanted a political Job, and his ap plication for the jitnltorship wns regarded as n joke by those who knew him. Iu closing he said the defense would present witnesses who would dispel ull wrong beliefs which might have been created, when the jury would not be put In the position of passing political judgment upon Charles F. Allen. The first witness for the defenst was Guy E. Farquhar, Esq., who said he hnd known Charles House for about twenty yea rs.and that his reputation for truth nnd veracity was bad In the neighborhood in which he lived. Ex-Burgess Frank J. Alber, of Potts yllle, wns the second witness, who sold he had met House one day previous to the Republican convention, nnd they went to "Jumbo" Trout's saloon. While there Allen came in nnd they had a drink to gether. The latter was introduced to Hause. Witness said there was no truth in tho testimony given by Iiausu as to Allen having had a con versation with Hnuse in reference to an appointment. Witness remained with Allen until ho left PottsvilleforTremont, nnd also denied having told anyone that Hause nnd Allen left Trout's place to gether and alone. The defem. then called a number of witnesses to testify as to the teputntion of Charles H .use, and all swore that his reputation lo;-1 mth nnd verncity was not Iu. mc urn I'Uitiicu umu .uicuaei .uoser, Decatur E.

Cooper, of Friedenslmrg, tes tified thnt on October 13 Allen was brought to his house by 'Squire Fertlg and ot nt his solicitation Allen remained all night. The next morning he took Allen to Schuylkill Haven, aud on the way had a few minutes conversation with Heffner at his home without uny previ ous arrangement. Wellington Hnrtmon wns one of the men at the polls on uleotion day at Mel lots. He saw George Heffner there and asked him If he had voted, and received a negative reply. About n half an hour later Heffner left tho town nnd did not come to the polls during the day after that. Witness said he (Heffner) did not vote nt that election.
