Wage THE MONSTER STRIKE AVERTED ! Papum KIkiumI Which IiK rcasu lh' AVliffo of a Hundred Thousand tiers In lViiiiHjliiiula, Ohio, Iiiilliina mid Illinois. Pittsbuho, Aug. 3. Tho blRRost victory vor mndo by organized labor was won -ostordny In Pittsburg by tho miners. Almost ovory douuiml was granted nnd tho operators gnvo 11 written guarantee for tholr fulfillment of tho contract. Tho papors woro signed last night, which in creased tho wages of 100,000 minors in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. Tho terms aro that tho present rate of wagos shall continue in forco until Oct. 1, whou every oporator in the Pittsburg district will pay tho 09 confc rato, with a differential of flvo couts In favor of op orators who do uqt havo company stores. Tho agreement for tho others provides for another advauco on Jan. 1. It Is under stood that tho rato will then bo mado 59 cents. W. P. Dormltt has been brought ovor, and will pay tho 01 cout rate, as he does not havo tho company stores. Tho offoct of this settlement is to nd vanco tho mining' rato in Ohio ond Indi ana from 61 couts to 00 conts. It also holds up tho rato In Illinois and brings tho strlko thoro to aa end. It also changes the end of tho scale year from April SO to Jan. 1. This is the first ttmo a differential has been granted against company stores, and It Is expected It will result in having all of them abolished. An ovldonce of this camo whon W. P. Rend, of Chicago, of fored to abolish his company store at Bolslg, Pa., and agreed to loan tho miners money onough to oporato It on a co-opera tlve basis. As another result of tho compromise tho operators proposo to form a now as sociation ok different lines from the old one, and every operator In tho district will be lnuludod In Its membership. Practically all the crodlt for the victory is being given to tho socrotary-treasurer, Pat MoBryde, who mapped out the entire campaign. Another feature of tho miners' victory is that a convention of miners and opera tors Is to bo held annually on tho second Thursday of October to fix the mining rate for the next year, so that the rate for each year can be Bettled before the scale year expires. Tho first joint convention undor this ugroement Is to uo held next October, and tho rate mado then will go Into effeot on Jan. 1, 1890. Aro you a sufferer from that terrible plaguo, Itching Piles?

A shooting that will in all probability result in a double murder and a suicide took plaeo here at noon to-day. Michael Costello, sou of John Costello, of Ashland, and William Grifiith, of Mahanoy City were shot by a saloonkeeper named Harry Fctterman, also of this place. Fetter man then shot himself in tlio abdomen. It is believed the three men will die. Costello and Grifiith were playing cards in Fctterman's place and the three men were drunk. The exact circumstances of tlio shooting are not known, as the victims aro not able to make comprehensive statements and no witnesses have thus far been found, but it appears that a quarrel arose over the game and Fetternmli took a shot gun loaded with buckshot to drive the two others from tho saloon. Fetterman shot Costello in the right knee and tlio joint was so badly shattered it is believed tho leg must bo amputated. It is believed that in such an event tho young man will die. Grifiith, who is a widower 40 years of ago and lias several children, received some of the buckshot in tlio abdomen, and it is be lieved he will die. Fetterman also received a quantity of tlio shot in the abdomen and is in a critical condition. N Tlio injured men aro being attended by Dr. J. C. Biddle, of tho Miners' Hospital, and Dr. Lewis, of Ashland. Tlicy givo very little hope for tlio recovery of any of the victims. Young Costello is a student nt the Jefferson Medical College, of Philadelphia, and was visiting here. A late report states that tlio three men wero struggling for possession of the gun when it was discharged and wero in such a position that all wero injured at tho same time.

A lew days ago m looking over some in surance commissioners' reports for the past ten years our attention was riveted on tho rapid increase made from year to year by what wo consider a great and noble institu tion partly belonging in our midst, namely, Tho Homo Friendly Society of Baltimore. There is no secret about tho success of this institution. Strict attention to business, honestly paying all just claims, proper se lection of risks, and in all cases and at all times straightforward business principles, witli a thorough understanding of tho in dustrial insurance obtained by twenty years' experience lias won for it a most enviable position. In the past seven years it has ab sorbed some twenty companies who havo re tired from business, putting tho members of these companies in immediate benellt and paying tho claims as they occurred as if they had originally belonged to the Home Friend ly Society. Mr. William T. Kvans is the local superintendent for tho company, and his ability and the excellent record of the society for honesty and promptness in deal ing with its members is tlio tuuso of tho so ciety's groat popularity in this region and elsewhere. Now glassware ut Girviu's. It Tito Connections. Tlio work of connecting private properties with the public water works is progressing very satisfactorily.
