Bad Place For Girls With Bangs.

There are two classes of girls who
are Supremacy happy at Bar Harbor-
the girl with naturally curly hair
which waves itself into fluffy little
rings and tendrils when the wind blows
in from the sea, and the maiden to
whose cast of features straight bang
is unquestionably the most becoming.
These two are satisfied; they have no
further favors to ask of Nature in the
matter of couture. But wo to the
damsel to whom that same tickle fort
une has given straight locks and at the
same time implanted within her breast
desire to possess by the art of curling
tongs and crimping pins the waving
locks of her more favored sisters. In
her soul there is room for little else
than deep, dark despair. In the
sanctity of her maidenly bower she is
prey to green and yellow melancholy
for she cannot trust herself to 90 on
yachting parties, take late afternoon
strolls along the sea wall, or sit down
on the rocks for one of those pictur-
esque looking f1irtations with youths
in striped flannel suits, lest in mo-
ment, while she is in the properly senti-
mental mood, and the striped flannel
youth almost up to the critical point,
pouf! comes one of those salt little
breezes, and away goes the work of
hours. put it to anyone if it would
not be rather a damper upon the most
ardent admirer to get into the thick of
Irritation with girl whose bang waves
and curls upon her forehead, and then,
suddenly, while stretched out on the
rocks at her feet, gaze up to find this
same bang hanging limp and straight
as a porcupine's quill. There is liter
ally no medium course to be pursued
in this matter at Bar Harbor, and the
girls may as well make up their minds
to it before they decide to come here.
The place is charming; there is no
question as TO that, but it is, neverthe-
less, place where the straightforward
girl has got to stand on her own merits
without the aid of an artifcially be-
frizzed couture. HGrb0r Letter.

were evidently Americans. One of them
engaged tie cashier in conversation. while
the other stood by carelessly leaning
against the counter. At the same instant
they drew their pistols, and, throwing
them in the bank officers faces, ordered
them to throw up their hands, which they
did. The robbers then hurriedly grasped
any money in sight, mounted their horses
and fed They were in the bank at the
same time President Temple ID. Smith,
Judge A. O. Alexander, Mr.. Wahrmund
and Mr. Keyser.
As the bandits went out of the front

had only about fifteen minutes start. 1t is

Intense excitement prevails, as 1t is the
boldest affair of its kind on record in this

A POLITICAL QUESTION.

President Strasser, Of the Cigar
makers international Union, is in
favor of the internal revenue on ci-
CARS, and the last convention of the
International Union passed resolu-
tions to that effect. As result he
desires all local unions to appeal to
the members of Congress in their re-
spective districts to oppose the aboll-
ton of the tax. a recent letter from
Mr.. Strasser to Union No. 90, New
York, warned them that members
should be proceeded against who OPP
posed the resolution. Union 80,
through its corresponding secretary,
L. Jablinowski, replied that they
could do nothing in the matter, hay
ing no authority to restrict members
in the expression Of their opinion
outside the Union, nor would Union
90 presume to infringe upon the
rights of its members as citizens in
regard to the internal revenue ques-

SPANISH STRIKERS.
Capitalists Use Cavalry and Infantry.
The Strikers Fight.

A reduction of the wages Of miners
in the employ of English capitalists
operating mines at Rio Tinto, Spain,
caused strike, and the men watch
ed the mines to see that others did
not take their places. The capital
lists easily influenced the government
to let loose the "dogs Of war" upon
the miners who made a gallant re-
sistance, and nearly succeeded in
routing the troops, A number of
citizens were killed and wounded.
The newspaper reports endeayor to
cast blame upon the Socialists, as
usual, by asserting that they were
furnishing the strikers with arms
and dynamite. Aside from the un-
truthfulness of such reports, it may
be observed that the right to fur
nish destructive weapons is peculiar
to capitalists and their government
tools.
At any rate, the company has ac-
cepted sound advice, and the wages
of the miners will not be reduced.
The Socialist movement in Spain
is making progress, and such expert
ences as those recited will only help
the workingmen III forming correct
opinions and organizing on a sound
socialist basis.

THE MINERS STRIKE.
An Unfortunate Alliance which Por.
tends Failure.

Notwithstanding the outspoken
opinion prevailing among many of
the striking coal miners, that the
notorious Executive Board Of the
knights of Labor should not be
mixed up in their affair, it is reported
that some one, whether authorized
or not, has sought the endorsement
of the little tribunal. The result
will in all probability be that the
bosses will be invited to "arbitrate,"
and if they are satisfied that they
can get the best of their employees
by palavering with Powderly or one
of his lieutenants, they will do so.
Observers have only to look back a
short time, and review the South
west strike, the Chicago packers
strike, and one or two other affairs
of the kind in which the Executive
Board has been allowed to interfere,
and they may picture to themselves
what the probabilities in this case are.
If it becomes generally known among
the organized wor kmen that the re-
port is true they will not feel Ike
wasting money on forlorn hope.
As for the miners, they might as
well make up their minds to accept
the fate of others who have dallied
wit the Executive Board
1t is possible that the rumor is
false, and it is to be hoped there is
no foundation for it. If so it would
be we'll for the striking miners to let
their friends know that they have
not called upon the Executive Board
of the Noble and Holy Order of
Knights of Labor, and if these peo-
pie should attempt to interfere, ig-
more them.
Strikes are at best a risky thing,
and not generally to be commended
but when once entered upon they
should not be placed under the lead
ership of incompetent botches. And
this IS said without intending any re-
Election upon the small minority in
the Executive Board, in whose integ-
rity the best men in the Order still
have some faith.

rich reward will be his in the "life
beyond" that is, after necessary
period of probation in some inter-
mediate place.
So let the workingman be of good
