Chicago, Sept. 2.—Organized work men in Chicago and vicinity celebrated Labor day with numerous picnics and r huge parade today. The demonstra tions were blessed with clear skies ana pleasant temperatures. The parade was about 3 miles length and it is estimated that 25,000 trades unionists and musicians were in line. Buildings were not decorated, but banks, the board of trade, the Stock Ex change and business houses generally were closed to allow full observance of the day. The South Chicago Steel workers, who refused to obey Shaffer’s strike or der, were not invited to participate in the demonstrations. They enjoyed themselves at a picnic arranged by their employers. A feature of the parade, although not observable to spectators who lined the sidewalks, were the union label attached to ever garment, cap and shoe worn by the marchera A critical committee had seen to it that the parade should repre sent dyed-in-the-wool unionism and even the horses were not allowed to march until it was shown that their shoes had been put on by union smiths. Among the speakers at the picnics were Senators Mason and Cnilom of Illinois, Mayor Harrison ana Samuel Alschuler, former Democratic candidate for gov ernor of Illinois. HEAVY MONEY SHIPMENTS.

Calhoun, Ga., Sept. 4 —The care of Russell York, charged with kidnaping, came up in the superior cccrt here yes terday and attracted wide attention. The conrtnonse was crowded by an im mense throng, bent o:i herring a.l the evidence in this unusual cr.se The prisoner was found guilty and sentenced to four years in rho peniten tiary. York is a yonug man of aDcut 25 years of age, and has a wife in this county, irota whom lie has been sepa rate.! about one year. For some time he had been working for Joe Campbell,- who runs a saw mill near town.

Atlanta, Sept. 3.—With a parlor rifle, that he held upon his shoulder, Roy Wilkes, aged 11, shot and killed his sister, Loraine, aged 15, at their moth er’s home, 68 Hood street, late yester day afternoon. The killing was accidental, the boy not knowing the rifle was loaded. The circumstances of the tragedy made it peculiarly pathetic. The girl whose life went out at a brother’s hand had but a moment before gone to him on an errand of sisterly kindness. He had playfully pointed the rifle at her and she had “held up her hands” in playful surrender. The rifle was low ered, and sister and brother proceeded to sapper. She paused to close the door and was walking behind the boy when he pressed his fingers against the trig ger. There was an explosion not louder than that of a scrikiug match, for the fatal bullet was nothing more than what is known as a B. B. cap; but, small as it was, it blotted out the life of a fair and sweet young girl, the very idol of her widowed mother. No. 68 Hood street is the home of Mrs. Emma Wilkes, the widow of the late Benjamin W. Wilkes, who died two years ago at LaGrange, this state. She was rhe mother of five children. Lo- raiue, the girl who was killed, was the second child ami the second daughter. Roy, whoso hand caused the tragedy in his home, is the oldest boy and the third child. Sills '• V <*i K Gi t il riug.

Sensational Claim Made by Opposing Counsel In DeLoach Case. Augusta, Ga., Sept. 4.—In the mo tion for a new trial in the case of Mrs. Susan DeLoach versus the Bell Tele phone and Telegraph company, before Judge W. F.
