Coal STRiEES.-Another convention oil
coal diggeIs took place on Saturday
night at Parker's Hall similar in
nature 10 those held heretofore. BY
q comparison OF notes it was found
that nearly all the banks represented in
the meeting had acceded to the demands
made on them; had branded their wagons
and were again in active operation under
the new order Of things. The strike and
its effects were discussed in its various
phases with great freedom and also the
relations OF operators and miners at pre-
sent This meeting was probably the
most satisfactory one that has yet been
held, to the miners, who were highly
gratiied at the manifest success Of their
adventure.
The Committee reported a resolution
that permanent Executive Committee be
appointed, composed of FIVE members
from mill banks and six from banks deal
ing in coal generally, said Committee to
be one Of Arbitration, to which should be
referred all questions involving the inter-
esls OF miners, and also to confer with
operators when necessary. Said Commit
tee TO serve six months.
a Committee was appointed to go out
and interview Kasley & Brooks on the
subject of their Crescent Mill bank, and
TO report Immediately. This Committee
soon returned with the report OF gentle
manly reception, and promise on the
part Of the Aforesaid to arrange matters in
accordance with the views OF strikers
against this (Nlonday) morning.
A report was received from Cownn's TO
the effect that his men had come out on
morning, and upon stating their
object in doing SO had BEEN summarily
and an offer OF 40 cents car
had been made against 42 cents which the
old ones had been receiving. The action
OF Cowan'smen was endorsed.
Reports from MarshalPs, Werner's,
Kimberly and others were heard, and va.
rious other matters discussed, aud the
meeting then adjourned until next Wed.
nesday night at the same place.
The Executive Committee reported the

A Remarkable Bank Note.

Not long ago well-known collector
OF curiOsities in Paris, who had devoted
considerable sums of money to the gath
ering together of bank notes of all coun-
tries and all values, became the pos
SCISSOR of Bank of England five-pound
note to which an unusually strange
story was attached. This note was
paid into Liverpool merchants office
in the ordinary way of business sixty
one years ago, and the cashier, while
holding it up to the light to test it's
genuineness, noticed some faint red
marks, which, on closer examination,
proved to be semi-effaced words
scrawled in blood between the printed
lines and upon the margin of the note.
Eventually the following sentence was
made out:
elf this note should fall into the
hands of John Dean, of Long.hill, near
Carlisle, he will learn hereby that his
brother is languishing prisoner in Al
giers."
Mr., Dean was promptly communi-
Gated with by the holder of the note,
and he appealed to the Government of
the day for assistance in his endeavor
to obtain his brothers. release. The
prisoner, who, as it subsequently ap-
peared, had traced the above sentence
upon the note with q splinter of wood
dipped in his own blood, had been
slave to the Dey of Algiers for eleven
years, when his strange mlssiVe first at
tracted attention in Liverpool count
ing-house. His family and friends had
long believed him dead. Eventually
his brother, with the aid of the British
authorities in the Mediterranean, sue
ceeded in ransoming him from the Dey,
and brought him home to England,
where, however, he did not long sur
yive his release, his constitution having
been irreparably injured by exposure,
privations and forced labor in the Dey's
galley.

In a Bears Clutches.

About month ago Miss Alice Corey,
OF New York City, came to visit her
uncle, German, who owns q small
farm in the mountains, six miles north
cwest of this place, Miss Corey is about
bsixteen years old, and her parents are
twell to do. Her uncle has daughter,
Clara, also aged about sixteen years.
Her father having but one son, Clara
has for years helped to do the work on
1.-THE farm, and she has become an ex-
gpert shot with a rifle. She has a mania
for hunting, and she frequently goes
into the forest in search of game,
A few days ago Clara invited her
acousin to accompany her on hunting
expedition. They started from the
house shortly after breakfast Alice
with a double-barrelled gun and Clara
with a rifle. After securing the woods
flor several hours without much sue
fcess they visited " Dark swamp" This
swamp embraces several acres, Is dense
,ly wooded, and bears are frequently
seen there. The girls reached the edge
tof the swamp at noon, and started into
khe thicket. They had gone but short
distance when Miss Corey, who was
walking few yards behind her cousin,
heard cracking noise in the bushes a
short distance back. Looking around,
she saw large black bear coming
5oWard her. Clara, who had frequent
~ encountered these shaggy monsters,
balled TO her frightened cousin to come
TO her. She then drew her rifle to her
ehoulder and, taking deliberate aim at
fhe animal, awaited until it came with
IN easy range, and then fred. The
bear uttered a howl Of pain and fell
bleeding As Clara's rifle was a single
parrelled one, she seized the double
parrelled gun from her cousin and dis
charged both barrels at the infuriated
snimal, in the hope Of killing it out.
light But, with the Disappearance of
lhe smoke from the gun the bear was
cen writhing, but not dead. The
lrave young woman then approached
cautiously TO within reaching distance
# the wounded animal, and, taking
rom a large leather belt encircling her
waist a bone-handled deer knife,
plunged it 10 the hilt into the bears

uonster gave q sudden lunge and fast
med its sharp claws into the girls
ikirts, pulling her down. Her fright.
med cousin ran about wildly and
creamed at the top Of her voice; but,

Afghan Justice.

The method of dispensing justice and
carrying the law into execution in Ca
bul seems to be somewhat primitive,
Judging from the following incident,
which is supplied by u correspondent
of the Lahore paper: In a quarrel be-
tween two artillerYmen, and by a sort
Of accident of a kind that sometimes
happens on purpose, the bayonet of
one man became implanted in the stom-
ach of the other, indicting a wound that
resulted fatally. The friends and rela-
tiVes Of the deceased declared that thev
would only be satisfied by the life of
the delinquent being left in their hands,
and according to the usual custom in
such cases the prisoner was made over
to them to do what they liked with him.
1t was Immediately agreed that hang
ing was the most appropriate, and all
the necessary preparations for the cer-
emony were completed, when one of
the relatives, more blOodthirsty than
the rest, demanded the privilege of
cutting the unfortunate mans throat.
At this interesting period of the tragedy
the Colonel of the prisoner battery ar
rived on the scene with bag of Rs.
900, which obtained an instant re-
prieve for the moribund artilleryman.
