Reward Got His Breakfast.

A curious story OF fox's temerity and
persistence in tho pursuit of prey IS report
ed from the farm Of William Bunneil, who
lives on the hill back of Big Canon, Pa, on
the line of the Lyccmipg Valley and Pine
Creek Railroad. Like ali localities in
northeastern Pennsylvania that neighbor-
hood has suffered greatly this winter by the
raids Of foxes on the poultry yards of the
farmers. Bunnell's flock Of chickens had
been reduced 10 one hen, although traps
and all sorts of devices had been tried to
foil the raids of the foxes.
A few days ago Bunnell went to n
neighbours to join him in fox hunt which
had been made up for that day, taking
his dog with him. He had been gone but
few minutes when big fox came into the
door ward, where the last member Of Bun
nel's flock OF poultry was feeding, and
chased her past Mrs. Bunneil, who was boil
ing soap at the back Of the house, and into
the house through the open kitchen door.
Mrs. Bunneli ran after the fox, carrying e
clothes FOUNDER IS weapon. The hen ran
up stairs and into a bedroom, and hid under
bed. The fox followed, and when Mrs.
Bunnell reached the top OF the stairs the fox
was coming out Of the bedroom with the hen
flung over his shoulder. Mrs. Bunnell
struck at him with the clothes FOUNDER, and
the FOX resreated into the bedroom and went
under the bed, where he eisurely proceed
ed to make his break fast of the hen. Mrs
Bunnel made him prisoner by closing the
door, and then ran to the neighbors, reach
ing there before her husband and the rest
had started away on the hunt. She told
the story OF the hen and the fox, and the
hunters returned with Mrs. Bunnell to have
some sport with Reynard. When they ar.
rived at Burnel's they found that the fox
bad jumped through a window pane in the
room and escaped. Big tufts ofhis fur were
fast to the jagged edges of the broken glass,
aud trail of blood leading away from
where The fox had landed in the snow show
ed chat lie had not got away with a whole
skin. The trail was followed four miles
Then the fox took refuge in a crevice IL
some rocks. He was routed out, and the
dogs soon killed him.

Newspaper Advertising

Mr.. J. H. Bates, q well-known advertising
agent Of New York city, who has disGursed
many millions of dollars for advertisers in
the United States end Canada in the last
thirty years, in "retrospec.ion' of his OK
perience, says among other things that the
people of this country expend at least thirty
times as nlucn IN newspaper advertising as
they did thirty years ago. The vast in
crease of population and newspapers cx
plains considerable part of this, but it
mostly comes from the more genera! and
freer use made Of the advertising col
umns by the general public. Ali classes
have cone mora and more TO believe that
the newspaper is the most mpersonal, self
respecting, and effective way of getting be-
fore the public with what any Que wants to
say to it, Thirty years ago man who
should spend $25 900 year in the newspa-
pers would attract attention as large adj
vertisvr; now there are houses expanding
almost rs much monthly, right along through
the year without attracting attention.
1T agrees with my experience that news
paper advertising is profitable. As / look
back over the very considerable number of
those whose advertising have done do
not now recall single one who judiciously,
perseveringy, and freely pushed good art
ices, OF whatever kind, in the newspapers,
and did rot make at least a fair success,
while great many have gained ample for
fumes. I will not mention names in support
of this statement, as l could easily do, but
the list is large one. Indeed, it has been
my observation that it is easier for large ad-
verLisers to make money than to keep it.
Often it ccme1 in so fast that the head gets
turned, and lavish personal expenditures
and Improbable investments swallow up
the fortunes which, had they been longer in
making, would likely have been more per-
manent.
when business men come to look on the
cost of steady newspaper advertising as an
investment sure TO pay as we'll as any other,
and not unlikely to be exceedingly pro6ta-
bic, they will use it more systematically
than heretofore, and regard it as necessary
item OF expense"

PALESTINE, Tex, March 30.-At 10 o'clock
yesterday morning Sheriff Davis, with two hun
dred deputies, including deputized conductors.
engineers and trainmen, took possession of the
railway yards, and with yardmaster Tanning
and his assistants began TO make up trains.
While the force of strikers at this place lined
Spring street from the postoffice corner to the
Railroad Hotel, not the slightest attempt was
made to resist the work of making up or run
ming trains. Between 10 and IL o'clock yester-
day three freight trains arrived from the South,
under guard of citizens from Elkhart and
Sheriff Balm, of Houston county. These are the
first trains, with the exception of the regular
passenger trains, that have arrived here in three
weeks. At IL o'clock the first freight train to
leave here in three weeks started out for Hous-
ton, and since then eight long trains have gone
north, south and west Except for trivial often
ses, no arrests have been made and no violence
is anticipated. Trains are still being made up,
and yesterday it was expected that by this morn
ing the yards would be entirely cleared. All
treins are running in charge of armed guards.
Superintendent Heron and Assistant Master
Mechanic Woods, at Fort Worth, have received
about one hundred applications for work, mostly
from men at other points Ten Knights of
Labor were at work yesterday. but none Of them
have been prominently connected with the
strike. Judge Williams will dispose of the cases
of the persons charged with disobeying the in
functions tomorrow Adjutant-general King
is here. None of the strikers have gone back to
work yet and will not until officially ordered to
do so. All freights trains are manned by deputy
United States marshals. One freight train was
sent south without guards. When it reached
Alvarado the engine was killed" and the train

ST. LOUIS March 30-The falling of driz-
zling rain this morning. the disagreeableness of
which is augmented by a cold north wind has
served up to $50, TO keep within doors the strik-
ers, and no crowds, except Of small dimensions,
can be seen congregated within any of the rail-
road yards. On this side of the river no freight
trains have. as yet, been started out, but it is
announced that the Missouri Pacific officials will
make their attempts in that direction to-day as
usual.
Application to the Missouri Pacific headquar-
ters by an Associated Press reporter elected the
following bit of information. Further than this

THE EIGHT-HoUR MOVEMENT.
Probability that Formal Demand Will Be
Made Throughout the Country

Probability that Formal Demand Will Be
Made Throughout the Country.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, March 30 1t is announced that
on the 1st of May prox. the carpenters brick
layers, and other mechanics employed in the
building trades in this city will demand the
adoption of the eight-hour law by their employ
ers, and will strike unless their demands are ac-
ceded to- 1t is believed that this is only the
first step in the most important labor movement
which has been contemplated since the organi
cation of that powerful body, the knights of
Labor. In fact 1t is limited by some of the
Knights of Labor that on the 1st of May blow
will be struck which will be felt from Maine to
California, and from the lakes to the gulf. 1t is
said that on this day the movement which is to
take place in Washington will start in every
city within the borders of the United States and
that on that day formal demand will be made
for the recognition of the eighthour law in all
trades throughout the country. The fear of this
movement has very naturally seriously de-
pressed operations in the building line, not only
in the city of Washington, but in other munici-
palties where the movement is expected to take
effect. There is no doubt that the Knights of
Labor, if they make this demand, will eventu-
ally succeed, but it is likely that the result will
be serious loss to the members OF the organiza
ton we'll as to contractors who engaged in
operations, the profits of which depend upon the
employment of labor on the Ten hour basis.

Troops in Readiness to Move.

SPRINGFIELD. Ill, March 30-The Governor
has been in receipt of numerous kilograms to-day
from East st. Louis. He is reticent upon the
subject, but from occasional remarks he made it
is easily observed that he does not think that
the use of troops is necessary, and is in strong
hopes that there will be no occasion for ordering
them out. Adjutant-general Vance has been in
East st. Louis all day. The Fifth and Eighth
regiments of militia have been ordered to hold
themselves in readiness to 60 at moments
notice. Ammunition has been issued. and
arrangements have been positively made for the
sustenanee of troops. OF the Fifth Regiment,
the following FIVE companies will be started first:
Company B, Taylorvle; Company G.
Springfield; Company D, Carthage; Com
pany E, Petersburg; Company g. Virden.
OF the Eighth Regiment the first battalion to
move will be those companies nearest to East st.
Louis-at Greenville. Vandalia, Sparta and
Marion. The remaining companies it is said,
will be held as reserves. It appears absolutely
impossible to obtain any reliable information
through official sources. All concerned are silent
or evaSve.
The Indianapolis journal., 1886-03-31

men turned theswitch, and twelve freight cars
and the caboose were ditehed and badly wrecked.
They arrested one of the offenders, named Mar
tin Leon, but the other, John Noonan. of Se-
daliS. refused to halt. and was shot in the hip by
police officer. The shooting has caused great
excitement among the strikers Noonan, on
being taken into custody at first asserted he was
plasterer, and happened to be passing and ran
because he saw an officer chasing him. He
weakened later, however, regarding his first
statements. Noonan was car-inspector on the
Missouri Pacific before the strike. His COM
panion gives the name Of Martin Leon. He
confesses his part in the work. When asked
why they did it, he said: ssWell, we couldn't
stop 1t any other way. all the trains being loaded
with police"
The company Is still moving its trains as be-
fore, and without serious interference. A large
crowd of strikers congregated at the yards this
afternoon, but dispersed under the pressure OF
the police.
The strikers are indignant over the shooting
OF Noonan, but have offered no further violence
His wound is in the thigh. and is not considered
dangerous.
Contrary to expectations no freight trains
went out over the Missouri Pacific to-day, though
several carne in No attempt was made to send
second train out after the first one.
A Missouri Pacific passenger train that left
here for ST. Louis this evening was detained for
half an hour between this city and Independence
by obstructions which had been placed upon the
track. The engineer discovered the barrier in
time to prevent an accident.
The two strikers arrested for train wrecking
this morning will be examined tomorrow.
