Two hundred men responded to the call
for workmen issued by the company. An
attempt WAS made by union men to pre-
vent them from returning TO work. The
Knights Of Labor held secret meet

lutions denouncing the company for
starting up and requesting the strikers to
stay Away from the mill. Superintendent
Jones was well satisfied with the number
OF men at work this morning and said he
anticipated no trouble in resuming in all
departments next week. No discrimina-
tion will be made between union and non
union men II they return to work and
ample protection will be accorded all.

Two days later Sir Daniers garrison
had grown TO such Il strength that hf
ventured on sally, and at the head Of
some two or three hOrsemen pushed
without opposi ion as far as Tunstau

stirred in the ihicket; the bridge vas 10
longer guarded, but stood open to all

saw the villagers looking timidly from
their doors.

grace, came forward, and with the
lowliest sslutations, presented q letter
10 the knight.
His face darkered ss he read the con-
tents. 1t ran thus:

LIS ANGELES, CAL April ga. j.
Lucas, hesd of prominent private detec-
tive firm, has been arrested On confession
made by William Elton in jail, for bur
glary. Evidence has been found going
to show that Lucas, who, on account OF
his business, had access to stores, resi-
dences, etc, really employed his men, IN
their guise as guardians Of the peace, to
act as burglars, they handing over the
stolen goods to Lucas. II is now thought
that very many Of the burglsries that
have been so frequent Of late are due to
Lucas schemes.

that has reached perfection. He is an
educated man. physically and mentally,
and part of his education IS acquired
under military discipline. He is not SO
dashing IN his appearance as the English
soldier, but he shows In his figure the re-
salt of thorough training in athletic and
gymnastic exercises, and thers is an air
and expression of intelligence and mental
culture ..bout the German soldier not
seen In the army of any other nation.
Bis uniform Is scrupuIously neat and
