Fresh and DisturbtnS Feature IN the
Mining Situation.
PrrTsBrRG, May ll.-Yesterday sixty COL
ored coal diggers were landed at Robbins
mines, Panhandle road. They came from
New Lexington, Ohio, and many brought
their wives. The delegation were given
possession of the houses made vacant by
the strikers, and went TO work to-day.
Some eight years ago the Walnut Hill
mines of W. z. Rend X Co., on the PanHan.
die road, were the scene OF the liveliest sort
of a row between striking miners and lot
of Italians under one Guscetti. The bullets
flew between the opposing forces, the news
papers sent reporters TO the scene of the
trouble, and for time
BIoodshed Seemed Inevitable.
The experiment cost the operators $50, 900,
and Guscetti soon after divided his men
between charcoal burning and chicken
raising. To-day finds almost parallel con-
ditions out the Pan Handle at Midway,
some twenty miles from the city. This
morning sthe colored miners, above re-
ferred to, went to work and up 70 the pres
ent time no troubles are reported. From
an Association source il was learned that
the Colored diggers were becoming dissatis-
fed among themselves, and that one big
African had vowed NenSeauCe upon tue
colored brother who led the gang TO Mid
way.

serve us now. You may state that the Pan

ton, foreign labor will be placed IN the

years, who hardly looked up when l
entered, but remained bent over their
work, picking up the threads with
their nails. which are kept long ana

and the children arc taught very

bought q piece of wild land near Lake

natural curiosity which the land agent
pointed out TO him. 1t was . palmetto
log wedged into the branches Of .

log in the tree. Oae day last week he
solved the problem. 1t rained a. 1t
rains only In the Everglades, turning
q food of water from the n w-grass
region down into Lake Hickpoehee,
and his neighbors heard him shouting

night long, and next morning they
went over In q boat and brought him
out. He was sitting In the top OF the
tree with his feet in the water. and
with . long pole, WAS keeping on
Hoating palmetto logs that were en-
dangering his seat by wedging them
selves In among the branches. Inc
