within the last few days, which
ire supposed to be for the new force.
i: Wellsville no men have as yet ap*
eared, but it is reported that they are
bartered at East Liverpool aud will be
ioved from there before Monday morn-
ig. The strikers at Wellsville are
latching all incoming trains and it is
aped that no trouble will take
place when the new men arrive. The
linkers are said to bo restive and what
cay happen when they see the new men
coming to take their places it is difficult
to predict. The company is taking ev
ery precaution to obviate the trouble.

Secret Meeting of Strikers.
A secret meeting of the strikers has
keen called for this evening, which will
be presided over by Vice President
Chappelle.
At McKeesport a force of men are
Kill at work, clearing up aud getting
theDeWees Wood plant into shape for
early opration. It is said that sheet
mill Eight aud Nine and the bar mill
have been completely overhauled and
are ready for resumption at any time.
While it it is not known that any
forks will bo started up on Monday, it
ii generally believed that it is the in
tention of the management to do so.
They have quito a number of men as a
nnclens of a f*rce, who were refused
admission to the Amalgamated associa
tion because they worked daring the
•trike last April, and when a start is
made it will be with these men. Man
ager Cooper refused to say when the
itart will be made, but added, “When
it does come vou can bet the mill will
be non-anion.”
The Amalgamated association officials
have little fear of the company inducing
tbeir men to go back, or successfully re-
•wring operations. President Shaffer
•ays the lodge is twice as strong now as
faring the April strike and he feels con-
that the men will hold steadfast

TRUCE IS DECLARED.
indications Point to Adjustment of
Firemen** strike.
Hazeltox, Pa., July 20.—The leaders
aud executive officers of the United
Mme Workers organization, who came
here to participate in a conference with
the officials of the Stationary Firemen’;
association, have returned to their
homes aud a truce has been declared,
pending a joint convention of miners
and tiremen iu Wilkesbarre tomorrow
afternoon.
There is a feeling among the officers
of the anthracite miners’ organization
in three districts that the strike of the
firemen should not bo allowed to inter
fere with the work in the mines. They
want to contiyl all the workers con
nected with the mines. All the firemen
iu the Lehigh district belong to the
United Mine Work#*r*r (HI ro»r emit oi
tne nremeu or tne Wyoming district
long to the firemen’s organization. Iu
the Schuylkill district 60 per cent of the
firemen belong to each organization.
The miners want the engineers to re
turn to work and defer the enforcement
of their grievances until uext spring,
when the miners’ 1-year ugreemenl
with their employers terminates. This
sentiment may end the firemen’s strike
for tho present and send everybody
back to work. The mine owners feel
that they have the best of tho situation
at present.
Quiet at Beading Shop*.
Readino, Pa., Julv 20.—A calm has
developed today in the troubles at the
Philadelphia aud Reading railway shops
here, due to the fact the 00 imported
mechanics were not put to work. Tin
men who walked out yesterday because
of the presence of the strangers art!
still away, aud the employes who re
mained are awaiting the action of tin
company as to the disposition of the
straugers. The latter remain quartered
on the third floor of the locomotive
shops. The strikers were directed nol
to go ou the company property at any
time aud to at ail times refrain from
acts of violence. They were also cau
tioned to stay away from the saloons.
Strike of Brewers.
New Orleans, July 20.—One hun
dred aud thirty skilled men iu a major
ity of the breweries here struck today.
Their fight is principally for a recogni
tion of the union. The brewers say
their business will not bo seriously
affected for tho present. Nearly all of
the strikers are Germans aud at their
meeting today the proceedings wero car
ried on in the German language. A
boycott lias been ou against some of tha
brewezries by union men for some time.
Later in the day all but two breweriei
suspended work.
Firemen Return to Work.
Wilkesbarre, Pa., July 20.—Opera
tions were resumed today at tho Avon
dale mine of the Lackawanna Coal com
pany, tho striking firemen, who ara
members of the United Miueworkers,
having returned to work. The situation
in this district has improved materially
today.
Internal Kevenue Receipts.
Birmingham, Ala., July 20.—It is
now estimated that the internal revenue
receipts of Alabama collected by the
federal government for the present
mouth, the first of the new fiscal year,
will be $80,000. This would show a
falling off of but $5,000. The falling
off in the sale of revenue stamps in July
will probably amount to $10,000, but iu
other respects increases will be shown
to the extent of about $5,000. It is
figured that the falling off in stamp
sales in Alabama for the ensuing fiscal
year will be about $100,000.
Canal Owners Enjoined.
Phenix, A. T., July 20.—The United
States district court took summary steps
to relieve the condition of suffering
Pima aud Marucopa Indians when it
granted an injunction restraining the
canal owners above the Indian reserva
tion from taking water from the river
aud thus depriving Indians from their
water supply. The acciou will give the
Indians water euough to prevent a
famine like that which caused such a
disaster among them last year.

Velvet Bracelet* and Band*.
Fifty years ago the belles of Paris
used to wear coquet tishly a black vel
vet bracelet, and no one who did not
possess one could 4k? considered fash*
ionable. The ultra fashionables of to
day have revived the style. The up to
date bracelet, however, Is a more styl
ish affair than its predecessor, having
loops and ends edged with diamonds or
pearl ferrets hanging from tho left
wrist, while n bizarre ornament clasps
the band Itself dose around the arm.
Nothing shows off n white hand better
than black velvet, and the same may
be said of the black velvet neckband,
which Is also in favor, studded with

lotto without some form of a band

What the Lawmakers Did at Mont
gomery Today.
Montgomery, Ala., July 19. — The
constitutional convention this morning,
after a short debate, reconsidered sec
tion 27 of tho legislative report adopted
yesterday, which confines tho appropri
ating power of the legislature to esti
mates of tho governor aud auditor for
four succeeding years.
Judge Coleman moved an amendment,
that the legislature may appropriats a >
surplus and provido for capital enlarge
ment independently of estimates.
Judge Coleman presented a petition
from tho citizens of Birmingham, rep
resenting $1,500,000 taxable property,
protesting against the improvement
bond issues authorized by a section of
tho article on taxation.
The article ou local legislation was
read the third time and passed. The
article on state and county boundaries
was read the third time and passed.
The latter leaves the county boundary

Ellen Terry** Hewing Gnltd.
In connection with the Theatrical
Women's guild of London is the Needle
and Thimble guild, which was founded
nearly three years ago by Miss Marga
ret Alston. Miss Ellen Terry is the
president, and the membership exceeds
300.
The guild’s work consists chiefly in
collecting new garments, clothing of
every description and money to be dis
tributed among the theatres! * >~..
Every year two badges are given, one
for obtaining the most new members,
the other for sending the most gar
ments during the year.
In 1899 Miss Terry offered a gold
thimble ns a prize for the sender of the
most garments made by herself. This
thimble was won by Mrs. Arthur Mor
rison, who contributed 112 garments,
44 of which she made herself. The
vice presidents of the guild are Mrs.
Nevill Dundas. Mrs. Arthur Morrison,

Train* Collide—Two Killed.
Evansville, Ind., July 19.—Two
freight trains on the Louisville aud
Nashville road collided at Novtonville,
Ky., last night, killing two mei!i, fatally
injuring two and slightly injuring two.
The accident was due to a conflict of
train orders. The dead: E. M. Corbett,
brakeman. and Cleveland Harrison, a
tramp. Fatally injured, two tkamps,
unknown.
Cap* For Maid*.
In all the best houses, as every ono
knows, the maids are expected to wear
the conventional uniform—light cam
bric gowns In the morning and black
after 12 o'clock, with white caps and
aprons—but there is a difference in the
arrangement for these. The caps and
aprons are always furnished to the
maids, but there are varieties of opin
ions among mistresses as to whether
the gowns should be provided. In
some of the richest houses this Is not
done, though the mistress always
states her wishes in engaging her
maids and requests them to wear light
gowns, and frequently she has a prefer
ence for blue and pink. This, with the
white aprons, adds a picturesque fea
ture to the house. In some houses tho
materials for both the cambric and
black gowns are furnished.
