Striking Paper Hangers

The boss paper hangers Of the city
complain Of the interference of Phila
delphia journeymen who come to " IL
mingtOn and try to make the journey
men Of this city dissatisfied with tLeiF
wages. A gentleman who carries Oh
the business of paper hanging inform ei
"a representative Of the REPUBII' AN
Office this morning that the wages pad
to jourhevrnen in this city were higher
than were paid in Philadelphia, and yet
these .journrymen have come down here
and have already held meetings try
ing to induce the Wilmington men 70
join and strike, though only about tso
weeks more OF busy season remain
The home wOrkmen as n general
thing are satisfied with the wages they
have been getting but few of them
have been induced to sign papers ASK
ing for an increase in wages
In Philadelphia our informant says
paper hangers pay their journeyinrN
ten cents per piece OF paper and lne
"jours" find their own paste. In this
city prices vary, some paying ten cents
per piece and furnish paste. Others
pay twelve and a half cents aud the
'jour,' find their own paste.
In either case the wages here arc
higher than they get in lfiiladeIphi',
For this reason the bosses complain Of
the interference Of outsiders who -e'
better wages here Than they were abe
to get where they came from.

PlCkELS' GOOD FLOUR
HEADQUARTERS.

The seasons succeed each
other regularly, and we have
changes of heat and cold,
rainy seasons and dry ones,
but in all seasons we must
have food to eat. The laws
of Nature require that our
bodies shall be sustained by
nutritious food. In order
that we may have this good
food Nature makes the wheat
to grow in a perfect state,and
gives the grain a covering
Tor protection. This outside
hull and a little starch is the
only thing in a wheat kernel
not wholesome. The good
flour that | have for sale is
made from wheat with this
coarse hull taken off and the
starchy part Of the grain ex-
tracted. This leaves nothing
but pure, wholesome, nutri-
tious, gluten flour, and this
constitutes our best grades.
You should always ask for
this kind of flour. VIM. ID.

A Girl on a Tricycle..
Eastern Paper. /

The girl on a tricycle. has
already made her appearance at
the Summer resorts. As observed
at Newport, she sat between two
wheels which were connected by
a short axletree, On a kind of a
saddle astride of it, but not so cir
cumstanced as to make divided
garments necessary as in riding
horseback, man fashion. Her feet
reach down to treadles and her
hands are employed in steering,
by means of a device connected
with a low front wheel. Her
posture was not that OF sitting,
however. but her figure was sus-
pended nearly perpendicular,
and her legs are moved great
deal like those of a horse afflicted
with spring-halt or swimmer
treading water. Her knees come
up high, with an action more
productive of good exercise than
of grace. And yet she was "a
symmetrical and pleasing travel
err The prescribed costume is
soft, thin flannel. with blouse
waist and skirt reaching Just to
the gaiter tops. 1t is obvious
that the latter level could not be
