1t seems to be the ambition Of all
young wives to look well when any one
calls. A young bride heard ring n
the front door. The maid was out, and
she rushed upstairs to " tidy" little
before admitting the caller. There was
. moment of lightning work before the
dressing table. Quicker than it takes
to tell t q ribbon was fastened to her
throat, flower stabbed into her hair,
flmh of powder ON her face, and shs
was at the door-all smiles and bushes.

CHARLESTON, 5. g., August a.
The damage to the wharves by the
cyclone will probably reach half a
million dollars, but large gangs of
hands are at work, and in few days
sufficient Accommodations for all posi-
BILE business will be provided. There
is even now no interruption nor any
additional expense to shippers. A
heavy rain yesterday afternoon az
gravated the annoyances to persons
whose roofs were blown oil, but will
not increase materially the general
loss. The total loss of the phosphate
companies In and about the city, is
now estimated at $4,000. Reports
from Georgetown say that rice is not
seriously injured. A Norwegian
named George McirhoH and man
named John Lanster, went shrimp
ing Monday. Their boat was
capsized and Lanster was drowned.
Late last evening the Italian bark,
Mariana, Captain Sugler, arrived at
tho bar. The captain came to the
city on a tug and reported that iifty
miles from Charleston the vessel was
struck by gale and lost masts, sails
and rigging, and that one seaman
was washed overheard and drowned.

GALVESTON, August "a. The strike
has a, last reached Galveston, and to-
day took shape by the leaving, almost
in Il body, of the entire laboring ele-
ment of the Gulf, Colorado Il Santa
Fe railway. The first ~ mptoms of n
strike were manifested at 10 O'Clock
by the withdrawal of the carpenters
aud groasers. In quitting work this
element of the labOring forco, stated
that they had no grievances, and they
only withdrew In conformity with the
orders of the council making the Wa
bash strike general on all roads where
there is just grievance. Two aud
half hours later all the remaining
hands followed suit. alleging that the
Santa Flo IL not pay ing Ms much as the
Missouri Pacific for tho same labor.
and that, furthermore, the employees
all along the road have not been dealt
with honestly. when the santa Fc
folks went to make up the passenger
tram, which IL due TO leave here at
$40 p. M, they found the passenger
coaches in the sheds, blockaded by a
pair of trucks. The strikers permit
ted the train men TO take out the mail
car but refused to let any passenger
coaches go out. Employees of the
road summoned II squad OF po-
lice, who rolled the wheels out
of the way aud the train was made up.
The strikers offered no violent oppo-
sition, in fact, did not manifest them
selves. Some trouble was anticipated
IN getting out freight trains this even
ing, but the fears proved groundless.
In an Interview with one OF the
officials of the Santa Fe, high In au-
thority, he commended that the road
had always paid just rs much wages
and more than the Missouri Pacific /;
that the lowest they have paid for day
labor has been Sl.l5 day, against
which the Missouri Pacific have only
been paying 81 per day, all summer
In conclusion he said that vacancies
were rapidly being filled and the road,
considering that they had always re-
wardcd the works of their employees
AS far rs they thought just and right,
would not make any concessions un-
less absolutely compelled to, which.
in view of the paucity of labor, was
not likely. On the other hand, the
strikers are determined and say they
will use all means to impede traffic
on the road until their reasonable de
inands are complied with with.

CHARLESTON, 5. c., August 81
The "News and Courier" publishes an
extended general review of the cy-

the weather bureau and the prognos-

nothing OF the severity of the storm

even anticipated after II began.

was blowing from the southeast al the
rate of about thirty miles All hour,
with frequent gusts reaching to about

from the northeast. At q O'Clock the
wind was pretty lively and the rain
