of the fssderh
Yesterdays session, Of the nailers con-
vention, it ID learned vas devoted entirely
to the discussion Of the nail feeders demands.
The feeders committee was called in again
and good deal Of argument was INDUCED
in on both sides. The nailers would not
agree to allow the feeders any con
css ions but would give no definite reason
for their refusal. The feeders insisted on
an answer. but received no satisfaction, and
the committee left and it is supposed that
the convention returned to the discussion OF
the matter.
A night session was held, and about 8
O'Clock the f teders were given their final
answer, which was to the effect that their
demands would lot be complied With.
A reporter met Q feeder shortly sftef-
wards and he said that be could not see

ton, and but moment passed when
there appeared upon the stringer in
front of the wharf a large Newfound-
land. He saw the little fellow in the
water, and with a low wall he ran to
and fro along the wharf for a moment
or two, and then, to the surprise of
every one present, he sprang into the
water and at once swan to the terrier,
seizing him by the neck with his teeth,
and after swimming about for some
time he sighted the new sea-wall extern
sion about hundred yards distant, for
which he headed. He was eagerly
watched by the admiring crowd until
he reached his destination. when every
body started on a simultaneous run
toward the rescuer. Upon landing his
burden on terra tirma the Newfound-
land gave two or three sharp barks and
seemed to be proud of what he had
done. 1t was some time before the ter
rier was able to gain strength to walk
away, One of the witnesses of the
strange sight took his handkerchief
from his pocket and tied it about the
neck of the Newfoundland, saying
This dog is mine, and 1 would not
take 81 900 for him at this moment"
