CHICAGO, Dec. ga number Of daring
daylight. .robberles OF ladies have recently
been perperated in the vscinity OF Prairie
avenue and Twenty-second street. which
have never been reported by the police.
No arrests have been made, and in the
circle OF families In which the outragcs arc
known, the ladies go out upon the streets
in terror. Not long ago = lady was knock
ed down in the afternoon and robbed just
opposite the Jewish synagogue on Indiana
ayenue. Two well dressed men rushed
around the corner, grabbed her bag tore
It away from her, and disappeared down
an alley. The lady was overcome with
fright and was with difficulty gotten to
her home.
a few days ago the wife oil rich Board
Of Trade broker, Mrs. r. w. Robson, was
attackethby these galroters directly op-
posite the elegant residence OF Mr.. John
b. Sherman, at the corner OF Prairie
avenue and Twenty-frst street. Her ex.
perience was precisely similar 10 that Of
the lady who was robbed opposite the
Jewish synagogue. Two well.dressed gar
rioters rushed around from the alley, tore
the wallet she was carrying from her
hand, and then disappeared down the
alley again.
Within radius OF few yards OF the
scene OF the garrotings a dozen million

the robbers are two colored poachmen

the miners is said to be nearly at an end.
O. @. Neil's men are digging right along
and at all points where men are working
everything is quiet. Some wild rumors
are floating around, but there is no
foundation for any of them. The miners
Of the Second Pool are wavering. A
number Of them had caucus and sent
delegates to all equipped mines little
distance below Pine Run, to ascertain il
there were any men working there. They
returned with the information that fifty
men went TO work there yesterday at q
cents. The effect OF this report could not
be learned, bpt it is anticipated that some
diggers will go to work. Many say that
an effort will be made to get tho men now
working to come out.

A Demand Made for Ten Cents Advance.
The Outcome OF 1t.
ALLIANCE, o., Dec. S.-The miners Of
the Scott and Black Diamond coal mines,
located at Diamond, Ohio, few miles
north Of here, left their mines yesterday,
demanding an advance OF ten cents per
ton. They also demand that their wages
be paid every two weeks instead Of month
ly. The operators refuse to accede to the
demands, and the miners are likely to re-
main idle. The miners Of the Palmyra
Coal Company say they will also so out
on Saturday unless the advance is granted.
Mr.. John Filler, manager OF the Scott
Coal Company, in conversation with
reporter, said the advance asked for by
the miners will not be granted. "We
now pay on basis OF sixty-fve cents,
which is as much as rs paid elsewhere, and
rather than grant the request our mines
will lie idle. For the past month or two
we have been run to our full capacity ow-
ing to the Massillon mines being closed,
but since they have resumed operations
the demand for Palmyra coal is not so
great" Therequest for payment OF wages
every two weeks will probably be granted.

Fish in Monterey Bay.

A notable fact in connection with the
counting up of the years products is the
unusual quantity of fish and marine an
imals with which Monterey Bay has
bedn crowded during the entire season.
School after school Of herring, sardines,
smelt and other small fish have swarmed
the waters. breaking the nets of the
fishermen and furnishing food to swoop-
ing clouds of sea-gulls. The larger food
fish-rock-cod, barracuda. founders,
skate, etc.-have been taken in the
greatest abundance and in the last few
weeks whales, large and small, have
spouted and plunged and foated, to the
delight of all admirers of these great
marine mammals. Latterly great
schools of seals and sea-lions have Wis
tied the bay, and last night bevy of
seals came in around the piers and kept
up a constant barking like so many dogs
after q chicken thief. This morning
they kept well in shore and saluted
everybody they saw with . friendly bark.

son in the north, and this cause, COM

Advice to Farmers on Securing . Good
Water Supply.
The we'll of the house should be situa.
ted near the kitchen door. Don't place
it a few rods away simply because
grandfather" or somebody else had
well at that distance. Remember, this
age has done away with the .'old oaken
bucket and thirty-foot sweep. If
suction pump is to be used, then place
one in the kitchen sink, extending the
pipe diagonally or on curve to the
water in the well. 1t will usually be
found economy to have pump of some
sort in the same well out of doors.
1t sometimes happens that when a
well is dug the water is found to be clear
and of good flavor, but soon after being
stoned up disagreeable taste is detect
ed. This is often thought to be caused
by new vein of water discharging into
the well. but nine times in ten the cause
could be traced to the dissolving or
chemical action of impurities in the
stone composing the wall. This trouble
may usually be removed by pumping the
well dry two or three times at intervals
of several DAYS.
For wells less than twenty feet to the
surface of the water, rubber-bucket
chain pump is perhaps best, the action
of the chain passing rapidly through the
water thoroughly aerating it-a point of
no small importance. But there is
great liability to freeze unless the well
is protected, making the use of an anti
freezing pump or windlass almost a ne
cessity. In an article of such universal
use as pump or water-drawer inn
provements are looked for, and are made
every year by the hundreds, as the Pat
ent office record shows. But somehow
they fail to present points of value of
sufficient Importance to induce their uni
versal adoption. Nearly every farm has
relics of some inventors scheme for
raising water. But for shallow wells
the general verdict is that the old-fash-
Toned wooden or chain pump is the best.
Where a great amount of water is to be
pumped, especial for stock or irrigating
purposes, a power of some kind should
be employed, the cheapest of which is
the Windmill. Iffavorably placed, they
readily raise water from deep wells

No matter how sloppy the food
given to pigs, they should have daily
good supply of clean, fresh water This
is especially needed in summer for pigs
kept in pens and with little green food.
But there is scarcely place where pigs
can be kept where more or less green
food can not be had as part of their
daily ration. Weeds from the garden
are excellent, especially the pig-weed
and purslane. both of which are very
nutritious. Y Times
If the covers of the cushions in
baby's carriage have faded they may be

One of the most satisfactory coverings
is of sateen, the cotton sateen. Do not
remove the old cover, but take the
braid off, and after lacking the sateen
to its place put new braid over the
edge, or the old one if not worn may be
turned wrong side out. If you are care
full to put the tacks in the same places
that they were in before it will look

Sockets, the Same rs Those Which
Nature Placed There.
A very important surgical operation
was performed in this city yesterday, the
ultimate results ofwhich promise to make
a stir in medical and surgical circles.
Heretofore the best that surgery has ac-
complished in replacing destroyed nat
ural ewes with false ones has been to
put in the injured members place a
glass eye, which, however skillfully
made, can always be detected because
it has no motion, but remains stationary
while the healthy organ is gazing from
point to point. The purpose OF the new
operation is to give to the artificial eye
the same motion as that of the natural
eve.
: The operation was performed yester-
day morning by DIR. Roland ID. Jones.
