Marks O'Myerx says In tile Labor Tri bune that after the big strike of 1812 Was over there was a great scarcity of coal, and within two wiks after resumption the miners were voluntarily paid 12 pence a day extra to Increase their output, as coal was high and tho owners wero making big money. I ho production was decreased and wages wero raised lo 5 shillings a day after the employers saw they could charge what they pleased for the outpil "But after u little time new operator opened other mines, and wages fell again, and Ihe men had lo do more work, so that the oiieratom could compctu wllht the new niincp, In IS 10, however, wnges were again raised with out a strike to 11 nhlllings and 0 penco a day from 20 pence and 2 shilling before tho big lost strike A company with a capital of $1 ,000,000 will develop 20,000 acres of iron and timber lands in Cherokee county, Tex. The pro duct of the iron beds, they say, cannot be excelled. A furnace operated by convicts has been established three ) cars, and the output has been sent all over the West. The new Slate House at Austin used 1,000,000 worth of the prison'; output. Canada's production of iron ore In 188C was 41,388 tons, ami Ihe rokc output was 31,004 tons. There are five blast furn aces in tho Dominion, two on coke iron, and ten rolling mills ou making nail nlate of scrap and puddled bam, and one on butt- weid pipe. The labor organizations of MinnciijKilis, Minn., will probably win their demand for conductors on all the street-earn.

No other artlclo of human food has ever received such high, emphatle, and tl versal endorsement from eminent chemists, physicians, scientists, and Boifd ttf Health all oyer tho world. v Notb The above DuorcVM Illustrates tho oompar&llvo worth of various Bit Use Powders, as shown by Chemical Analysis and experiments mado by Prof. Schedler.' A pound can of each powder was taken, tho total leavening power or tolas bi each can calculated, the result befog as Indicated. This practical test for wortfc by Prof. 8chedler only proves what every observant consumer of the Royal BaMng Powder knows by practical experience, that; whllo It costs a fow cenU per poaml moro than ordinary kinds, It Is far more economical, and, besides, affords the adrift age of better work. A single trial of tho Royal Baking Powder Trill convince y fair minded person of these facts. . Whllo tho diagram shows somo of the alum powders to be ot a higher degrM ' of strength than other powders ranked below them, It Is not to be taken as tadioat. Ing that they have any value.
