AMONft THE WAGE WORKERS,
An Interesting Batch of Labor Kotos Special
for To WorUngmen.
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. Their
members will not put their nickels In Ihe
box, and other people lire following their
example.

Tho Royal Baking Towdcr rccclvod tho highest award over all competitor
the Vienna World's Exposition, 1873 : at tho Centonnlal, Philadelphia, 1S7B ! at tilS'
American Institute, New York, and at Btate Fairs throughout the country.
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. AH alum powders, no matter how high their atreetrttu
are to be avoided as dangerous.
