4 Remarkable Scarcity of Them On the
Monopgahe'as
PrrT.BURG, May 2+-There is such
scarcity of miners on the Monongshels
river reported, that less than one-third OF
the mines bstveean Mckeesport and
Brownsville are 10 iall operstiop. The
operators give several reasons tor this con-
di,ion af affairs. Some attribute it to the
fact that during last years strike, large
numbers of miners obtained other employ
ment and did not return to the mines after
the strike, WLiIe otheFs pgt 1t down to the
long dry spell. The miners explain
the fact By stating that the
difference OF one-fourth of q cent in favor
of the railroad miners has caused 8 large
nioration from the river to the railroad
Another Ieascn given by them is that
miners in Euglapd, scotland and Ger
m.ny have been 30 well posted By their Ie-
tprn;ug frisaSs aa the present state OF the
American labor market tSst :hs stream Of
immigration bas practically stopped.
Many miners from thesS countries who
had been on the river tor several years,
have returned home disguSted st the low
rates Of wages now ruling.

The wheat yield in North Geer-

third. In Southwest and East
Georgia, where a small acreage is
given to the crop, the yield is
much better, amounting to about
three-foarths of a crop.
The yield Of eats compared to
an average crop in the State is
about two-thirds.

gia, 80, and in the whole State, SO
The condition falls below that of
last month in all the sections ex-
cept that of Southeast Georgia.
The crop has fallen off 4 points in
the State, on account Of protract-
ed wet weather and the conse-
quent grassy condition Of the
crop. The lands and crops in
nearly all the counties have suf-
fered from excessively heavy rains,

He remained there FIVE weeks and
escaped by climbing the side of

off his track by wading in u creek
for five or six miles.
Near Eutaw he met a tramp and
chummed with him; but one day
the tramp gave him away, and q
large crowd of citizens came up
with him and one hundred shots
were fired at him, but he lodged
away in the swamps unhurt.

farmers saw a man riding on the
lost mule. They demanded that
he yield to them, but he resisted
and attempted to shoot, when one
of his pursuers endorsed him
with load Of squirrel shot.
When the latter was asked why
he didn't use buckshot, he replied:
That was a skeer gun;[ was goin'

HER SWEET OLD THING.

When Grover came home t'other day
From off his fishing trip,
His frankie met him at the door
And carried in his grip.
As Grover dressed himst If to dine
His wife, with merry shout,
Unlocked the grip and set it down
To take the contents ont.
A last weeks Shirt pair of socks,
A garment, white and wide;
A collar and pair Of cuffs,
A tie that had been tied
These things she took from out of the grip,
And then delayed her task,
As from the depths she brought to sight
An empty, battered flask.
ooh, Grover, what is this?" she cried,
And Grover looked and smiled.
Then blushcd and hcsitating said:
"Why, that's bait can, child"
"a bait can, dcar?'' she questioned him,
What makes it smell SO quccr?'
''Oh--ah," he said, "that's spirits to
Preserve the bait, my dear"
"You sweet old thing" she softly said,
With other loving terms,
How good and kind You are to those
