Great Strike Impending. From the Wilkesbarre Record. Unless all indications are deceptive a prolonged and devastating strike is imponding in the steel industries of the United States. The efforts made to bring the great Steel Corporation and the Amalgamated Association together have failed. Arbitration was suggested but declined, and there is now, appar ently, only one way to a peaceful settle ment of the differences between the con flicting interests, and that is by concilia tion. It ought to be possible for a disinterested third factor to Interposo with propositions of mediation, with a view to conciliating the warring factors. That the leaders of the Amalgamated Association realize the magnitude of the threatened strike, as well as the in evitable consequences of such a suspen sion, Is manifested in the statement pub lished by authority of President Shaffer. The representatives of the Steel Cor poration, on the other hand, claim that they are lighting for the right to them selves control the business of the great industries in which they have invested millions and tens of millions of dollars. They charge that the Amalgamated Association is endeavoring to control the affairs of their employers as well as their own, and that the employers will resist to the death any such demands. In this strike the question of wages and hours of work do not figure at all. The union scale of wages has been and Is being paid. It is not even a strike over the right of the workingraen to unite, for the corporation has recog nized this right. The question of recog nizing the union is not at issue either, for the corporation has recognized the organization in frequent conferences and agreements. It would seem to the impartial and dispassionate observer that there is an opportunity here for intervention to bring together these warring elements. The Steel Corporation and the Amalga mated Association are surely not so far apart as to render conciliation impos sible and compromise impracticable. In such a contest as is here threatened hundreds of thousands of worklngmen, and hundreds of millions of money, will be affected, apart from the men and the capital concerned in the steel industry. One of the great evils of such contests as that now being precipitated, is the injury done to those who are in no wise interested In the particular industry in volved. Unless the differences between the Steel Corporation and the Amalga mated Association are adjusted prob ably 150,000 steel workers will he thrown into idleness. That is bad enough, but the suspen sion of these mills will be the means of depriving of employment possibly a million of men in other Industrie* that are, directly or indirectly, dependent upon the product of the steel mills for their employment. The great industries of a country like ours are so interwoven that they are largely dependent upon each other to keep the great Industrial machinery in motion. This great pending strike can still bo prevented. Those who have the power to avert this strike and fail to exert that power are assuming a frightful responsi billty. Hot Correlative. Mrs. Ilousekeep—Do you really mean to say you are looking for work? Harvard Unshorn— No, lady; that's neither what I said nor what I meant to say.

They ap pealed to ttle monarch, who, like Solo mon, awarded, "I/et the eldest go first." Such a dispute was never known after ward. . In the fourteenth century the slaugh ter of women and children after a town or caatle had been taken by storm was one of the most common occur rences of war. The rooster makes two-thirds of the Boise, but the ben does all the work.-* Chicago Newt. A Startling Sermon. Once when Father Ilonore, a cele brated Capuchin of the seventeenth century, was preaching on the vanity of the world he suddenly produced a skull, which he held up to view. "Speak!" be cried. "Were you not per haps the head of a magistrate? Si lence gives consent." Then, clapping upon the skull the cap of a Judge, ho continued: "Ah, ha! Hast thou never sold Justice for gold? Hast thou never been snoring many times during a hear ing, etc.? How many magistrates have sat under the fleurs-de-lis only to put virtue at a disadvantageV 9 Casting aside the skull, he held up another, which In like manner be ad dressed, "Wast thou not perhaps the skull of one of those beautiful ladles who occupy themselves only with catching hearts after rhe manner of bird catching?" Then, arraying it in a headdress, ho continued: "Ah, ha. Empty head! Where are those lovely eyes which cast such fascinating glances, that pretty mouth which shap ed such gracious smiles, that made so many unhappy ones to weep In hell? Where are those teeth which chewed upon - so many hearts only to inako them more tender for the devil's eat ing?" and so on, bringing forth skull after skull and appropriately decking them to receive his reproofs. Knrope'n Ice Supply. Few perhaps among the tourists who visit Norway for the pleasures of Its scenery are aware that here they are at the headquarters of Europe's lee sup ply. To the mountain lakes of that country the continent looks for Ice. The Ice Is of the finest quality, for the lakes are of crystal clear water, high up In the mountains, and are surround ed by very tall pities. The Ice supply Is controlled by syndicates. After having been cut Into great squares by plows tbc blocks of Ice are sent down the mountainside on slides. On the way they acquire amazing ve locity and plunge into an Inclosed pool beyond which are the ice ships await ing their frozen cargo. It sometimes happens that through delay In the starting of the vessels or the cutting of unusual quantities from the lakes to supply exceptional de mands the supply runs short. Then It Is that Ice becomes dear and even In winter time Is a luxury that must be indulged In sparingly. Hut Ice is used In Europe far less commonly than in America, and a deficient supply does not occasion the sense of loss that it would cause In this country.—Youth's Companion. Gilbert iNlandn Tipple. Neither tea nor coffee is drunk in the Gilbert islands, but liquor named kar ofee, or toddy. It Is the Juice of the cocoanut tree, from which it Is drawn daily at sunrise and sunset. To ob tain It the natives climb up the tall trees and while extracting It keep up a constant yelling to let those below know that they are at work. The sap when fresh Is A harmless and delicious beverage, but after it has been kept a day or two fermentation sets In, and it becomes Intoxicating. Knrafee does not, however, fly to the head, but a man who drinks It to excess loses the ( control of his legs. However, when this befalls a native he has sense j enough to remain indoors and shows ' his face to no one, for if his chief should ever hear of It he would be tried and sentenced to hard labor and a heavy fine. In former days a native found Intoxi cated was tied to a tree and received a hundred lashes, the blood fairly stream ing down his back. Besides this, all his lands wore confiscated to the king forever.—Overland Mont lily. Witty IJnrrymore. Talking of Maurice Barrymore re cently, a man who knew him well told this story of him: Once a wine agent Intruded upon a party of which Barrymore was one. The agent told Barrymore he was a man of good taste, and ail that, and wound up by saying: "When you want a bottle of wine In future, will you not gratify me by ask ing for my wine?" "Why, of course," answered Barry more most graciously. "1 shall be de lighted to ask for j-our wine. But, heavens! Suppose they should have It!" Beverages. Tommy'* Mlntake. Father—Come, young man, get your Jacket off and come witli me. Tommy—You're not going to lick me, are you, dad? Father—Certainly. Didn't I tell you this morning that I should settle with you for your bad behavior? Tommy—Yes, but I thought it was only a Joke, like when you told the grocer you was going to settle with him.—Tit-Bits. Pinched on (he llnnnc. Jack- I Just saw your wife, old man. She was simply stunning. By the way, you're looking rather miserable your self. What's up? Tom—Don't get enough nourishment; that's nil. You see, I arranged with my wife a month ago to give her a certain amount each week, out of which she was to pay household expenses and buy her clothes.—Philadelphia Press. The Piny. Henry J. Byron, one of the wittiest of English playwrights of a score of years ago, remarked on one occasion: "A play is like a cigar. If it's good, everybody wants a box; if it's bad, all the pulling in the world won't make it go." "Why did you leave your last place?" "Master was too sarcastic." "How was that?" "Well, I told him I seen a snail on the garden path, and he says to roe, 'You must have mot It.' "- -Moonshine. The Big Day Out! Saturday, August 21,1901.

Almost distracted by its constant crying', and worn out with weary, anxious care and watching, ahe trlca every thing possible to obtain even relief for the little sufferer. With what comfort and delight alio aeea her little one drop off into a deep peaceful lfaltli-giving slumber, after ite little clogged bowel* are clcarrd of their poisonous burden by a aingle doae of Laxakola, the great tonic luxaiive and motlicr'a remedy. l.axakola is a pure, gentle and painless liquid Inxative, and contains valuable tonic projierties which not only net uimn the bowels, hut tone up the entire system and purify the blood. A few drois can be given with safety to very young babies, which will often relieve colic by expelling the wind and gu9 that cause it. Great relief ft ex perienced when administered to young children suffering from diurrluea, accompanied with white or green evacuations, as it neutralizes the acidity of the bowels anil carries out the cause of the fermentation. LAXAKOLA will aid digestion, relieve restlessness, assist nature, and induce sleep. For constipation, simple fevers, coated tongue, or any infantile troubles arising from a disordered condition of the stouiuch it is invaluable. I.axakola, the great tnnir laxative, is not only the most efficient of family remedies, but the most rem" d 'li ,I,rcl^ ni j s ' ,;iia, h' c and tonh . and at one price. No other HINTS FOR FARMERS ripTM ns n Dairj- Adjunct. As pork products arc commanding better prices than for several years, It will be for the iuterost of farmers keep ing cows, and especially where there Is a supply of milk the year around, to pay more attention to keeping of swine, says a writer in American Agricultur ist. As now, more than formerly, light weight hogs are more in request than heavy ones, It becomes possible with good management to raise and fatten two broods of pigs In one year, as at 0 months old they will be ready for mar ket and at good prices. This will allow of a good number of pigs being grown and fattened with a moderate sized dairy. To make the business most profitable brood sows should be kept on tin l farm and the pigs raised for use, thus sav ing the cost of buying, besides having such breeds as are best for the pur pose. Advnntnfrcn of Farm Life, One of the advantages of farming is that the farmer never becomes either very rich or very poor, neither of which is desirable. Extreme poverty degrades and groat riches have an equally had effect In creating extravagant liuDits and general selfishness. Farming is all right as an occupa tion, hut could be made much more pleasant than it is If farmers would take more pride in it and themselves. The farmer has as much right as any one to wear a good suit of clothes and adorn and beautify his home. In fact, CASTOniA. Boars the 1,16 Kind You Have Always Bought It Is his duty to do so. It is also putt of his duty to furnish good reading matter for the family. Wo should strive to so elevate and dignify the business that any man could be proud to say, "I ain a farmer."—J. M. Terrell.
