out of employment. The foreman. who with the
apprentices are still at work at the factory on

be no probability Of compromise between Mr.
Weber and his employees. The strikers are supported
by the PianOmakers Union, and claim to be able to
continue out of work for six months II necessary.

The brick arch work of the oil vault and
warehouse, which is being built for Mr.. F.
McNulty, fronting the railroad, west of the
freight depot, caved in yesterday morning,
while the workmen were engaged on the
building. Two carpenters, Mr.. Hayden,
white, and Van Aleck, colored, were inside
the vault, under the arch, taking out the
staying, but the brick work was too green
to support itself, and gave way with crash.
Hayden was standing about the center of
the vault, noticed the break, gave the alarm
and he himself jumped out of the door just
in time to escape the falling brick, mortar
and timber. Van Aleck jumped the other
way, against the Lack wall, and was
fortunately protected by the planks and
timbers, which shielded him from the
brick, but wedged him in pretty tight. His
fellow workmen didn expect to see him
alive but he notified them that he was safe
and they went to work with will and dug
him out.
1t was truly a very narrow escape, and, as
it was, he received pretty bad cut on the
head, and was otherwise bruised up, but
nothing serious. The boss carpenter,
Sandy Kelly, took him to a physician, who
found him to be all right, and then to his
home. Work was then commenced clean
ing out the rubbish, to rebuild the arch.

family gatherings that ever occurred in
this country. The reunion was held three
days the II, Is and 10, and there were in
the neighborhood of 600 Collins, relatives
and descendants present, representing many
States of the Union
During the session of the reunion. which
was gotten up systematically, with officers,

A daily paper was published, called the

sprang from Tristram Coffin, who was born
in 1905, in England, and came to America
in 1912, settling at Salisbury, on the banks
of the Merrimac, in Massachusetts

Homicide at Cleveland.

From Capt Will Hannum, who came up
from Chattanooga last night in charge of a
freight train, we learn of homicide which
occurred at Cleveland yesterday, in which a
negro man was killed by another. We were
unable to learn the names of either of
the parties Our information is
that one of the negroes approached the
other near the depot, accusing him of init
macy with lis (the assaulter's) wife, and
dealt him some terrific blows with stick,
which laid him out cold. The perpetrator
of the deed then took to his heels and
escaped. He was afterwards pursued, but
whether captured or not we could not learn.
