THE "sFoRsIA yosDsR.s
Miss Lula Hurst Coming Here on
Friday.

sEhaay.
Sandford II. Cohen, manager for Miss
Lula Hurst, has arranged to exhibit in
the Opera House here on Friday evening
next. II Miss Hurst reaches Whining
ton in time, privste exhibition Of her
strange power is promised to members Of
the press, and they are urged by Mr..
Cohen to expose to the fullest any hum
buggery they may detect in the exhibi.
tion. When the party reaches Boston,
her manager says he will invite John l..
Sullivan TO trial OF strength In COM
petition with Luls, and, II Sullivan eau
force chair or billiard cue to the
ground while the girl has her hand upon
the chair or oue, ne will make Sullivan a
free gift OF the total receipts OF the ex-
hibition.
The GAZETTE has previously put-
lished acoounts OF Miss Hurst's strange
power, which her manager declares, in
his belief, Is not attributable to spirit
uslism, mssmerism, or physical strength
As to the latter, he declares that she CAD
not lift squarely any greater dead weight
than most other women OF her
stature. Another strange feature is that
the force exerted, so far as experiments
have gone, is imponderable. When a
chair is placed upon scales, q man seated
therein aud the chair held, despite the
occupants oontortions, by Miss Hurst, IL
has been ascertained that less weight is
registered by the scales than when an
other person attempts to hold the chair
and fsils to do so.
The Baltimore Sun, in which city Miss
Hurst exhibited Monday night, says {:
''The performance opened with the at.
tempt Of well kno Rn merchant to hold
over himself and Miss Hurst su umbrella.
As soon as the young lady touched th .
staff with the palm of her hand the
gentleman became very unsteady aud ths
| umbrella lew violently from his hands.
A gentleman weighing 200 pounds then
osms mp smiling, and was invited by
Miss Hurst to force to the fl ,or & billiard
cue, which she held lightly in her left
hand with the lower end but q
few inches from the floor. The
heavy gentleman grasped the GU,
with both hands, and threw his alder
manic weight upon it, but the cue was al
immovable as II 1t rested upon a granite
foundstion."

THUMEY GETS ms NAME Up.
a Boss Plumber Causes n Lockout
OF 500 JOurueymen.

New YoRk, June 23.-The boss
plumbers to the number OF about as to-
day locked out their 500 journeymen. The
manner in which the lockout came about
ia as follows Two weeks ago a boss
plumber named Twomey discharged one
of his Journeymen for knocking ii work
an hour earlier than he should.
The % journeymen employed in his
shop struck because the boss refused to
re-employ the discharged workman who
they thought had been discharged with
out sufficient cause. The employer be-
longs to the Master Plumbers Association
and this ogRnizstion ordered lockout to
begin to-day OF all the men by the
employers if the men on strike in
Twomey's shop did not return to work.
The lockout began to day and will not
bs ended unless Twomey's men return
TO work. Twomey will not re-employ his
discharged workman, The members OF
the Master Plumbsrs Association refuse
to employ any journeymsu who is a
member OF the plumbers union until the
lockout ia ended. As fast as the mel
were locked ont by their employers they
reported the fact TO the executive
committee OF their union. Before the
day is out the bosses say that every shop
run by member Of the association vii
bs closed. They say they will not yield
an iOts and will not be dictated to as to
whom they will employ.
After. .Twomsy had discharged his work
man another boss plumber offered to en-
ploy him, hut he refused to work TO
anybody but Twomey. ..-

1t is an open secret that the dinner WAS

oussion OF the approaching national
Democratic convention at Chicago, and
Mr.. Baysrd's prospects for receiving the

fully, aided by sincere friends, and bring
ont everything that could possibly be
urged against him by managers OF rival
booms, thus exposing every known Gle.

veution's action.
Personally Mr.. Bayard believes his
record without a flaw, and in this opinion
he ia sustain. by his frieDds and many
prominent Democratic statesmen. This
evening, while sitting at table, the senator
from little Delaware explained his exact
status in the following straighttorw ard
manner:
Rather than be nominated under a

against me by which my party may he

of its sustaining one, | would decline to

WASHINGTON, June 81. In the ebb Of
the Cleveland wave the friends OF Senator
Bayard are reaping much benefit. They
have been in G0naultstion with many of
the party leaders and ara feeling much
encouraged over the reIult. The friends
of tbs Delaware statesman have fully
answered the comments made in certain
Democratic quarters upon his Dover
speech OF 1861, in defense q the course of
his father, then 3 senator of the United
Statot by calling attention TO resolution
Ot the De npcI ttu convention OF the state
ol Nav YJI&, IA jniy 1861, in which
Wal with u. south was decl .rsd suicidal
References is kls0 Inade to ~ 4tch by

Mr. Bayard's irlends declare that at
that time these views were regarded as
d Dmoorativ doctrine, and the question OF
the solution Uf the differences between
the north and the south by peaceful
means or var was the same "a any other
great issu--ths tariil or ANY ythipg upon

Tho friends ni Mr, Bsyard say with re-

supporters Of Mr.. Blaine base their hopes
OF picking up few southern states, which
would be bad outlook for the Demo.
cratic party. Mr.. Bsysrd's triends urge
that against their candidate Mr.. Blaine
cannot carry single state south of Mason
and DixOn'a line, and with a strong Vice
President, Bayard would have an equal
chance with Blaine and Logan of carry ing
New York and Indiana.
Since the withdrawal OF Mr.. Tilden
from the contest the friends OF Mr.. Bsysrd
have been in quiet but active oorrespon.
dence with representative party leaders
in all parts of the south and west and
have received very satisfactory replies
They claim that Mr.. Bsyard will gather

scarcity of aarves, HELM.

Farmers complain OF the great difficulty
in procuring men to assist them in gath
eripg their crops, more 80 this season
than for long time. The owner OF
large property just over the Pennsyl-
vanis line was in this city day or two
ago trying to engsge men to assist in
harvesting his wheat crop. He made a
tour OF the city and met with great
number of men ont of employme
but could not induce but one OF
them to 60 TO work in his fields
They gave many excuses some fearing
a sunstroke, aud others did not care to
20 ont Of the city. The great improve
ments made to farm machinery, however,
will enable the wheat crop to be gathered
without much loss from being overripe
and rattling ont of the heads. Wages
for men in the harvest season, It ia
claimed, are relatively highe than during
the war, Then they were based in a
measure upon the price OF wheat, Que
bushel being an equivalent for day i
work in gathering 1t. Wheat is now
much lower, and it takes quite bushels
at current rates to pay for the same work
and, at that, there Is su aversion to labor
ing in the harvest field.
