A STRIKE THREATENED.

blacklisted men came home from
school at noon to-day with their books
In hand and declared that they would
never 60 back. They say that this
morning on the play ground other
children twitted them by saying
"Your pa is no good. He is on the
black list and don't pay his debts,
while our papa pays his debts and is
somebody"
To say that the parents of these
children were mad don't express the
idea. The father of the children
claim that be got behind while his
family was sick and he has MT been

has paid all of his surplus
earnings on his debts every month

The railroad man while speaking to
a BAzoo reporter about the matter

be strike of right against wrong and
We won't quit work to win it either"
ShOpmen in the Missouri Pacific
shops say they don't care how much
dead beat is black listed, but they OBJ

have always paid their debts until they
were overtaken by misfortune, treated
like deadbeat. There is consider

Harvesting the Ocean Wave:

The problem of utilizing the force
of ocean waves has been solved to a
certain extent by an invention of Mr..
n. o. Bond, of Fairfax Court House,
Va, which is now in use at Ocean
Grove, n. j. Mr.. Bond has mounted
gates in such a position out in the
water that the wave coming in beats
against them and shuts them. When
the wave retires it opens the gate, to
bang it shut again at the next advance.
Connected with the gates are piston
rods working the force pumps, and
pipes connect the force pumps with
tanks elevated to a height of forty feet.
The device is success. Not long ago
10000 gallons of sea water were
pumped into tie tanks for use in lay
ing the dust OF the streets. The au-
thorities hold that the salt water is
better than river water for laying dust
Mr.. Bond is of opinion that b7 the use
of big floats. instead of gates, he can
get results six times as great But
the pump operated by g gate is prac-
teal device which is destined. it APP
pears, to have wide use.-Boston

ABOUT ORIENTAL RUGS.

How These Popular Articles of Utility
and Elegance Are Made.
One sometimes confounds the rugs of
Karabagh with those of KAYAK. mas
much as they resemble each other in
appearance and designs, but when one
considers that the former are always
rectangular and the latter square their
distinction can be readily determined,
despite the similarity in general APP
pearance.
The looms of the people of Afghan
istan and BelOOchistan vary much in
dimension, but in those from the lat
ter country the length is always pro-
portionate to the width. One does
not find rugs here greater than three
or three and one-half meters by two or
two and one-half meters. The rugs
from Afghanistan are made on looms
much of the same character as the
Karabagh loom, and therefore the
width may not surpass a certain limit.
In Oushak. Gordez and the other
countries of Turkey, fabric is made
of almost any dimension. according to
the means at their disposal and the
progress which this industry has
made in the Asiatic provinces of the
Ottoman Empire. The operation of
weaving as practised in Asia Minor
does not differ essentially from the
methods in use in the Caucasus, but
the popularity of Smyrnas can best be
attested by the fact that there is ex-
ported annually of these rugs about
three hundred thousand square meters.
This process is carried on, OF course,
without the aid of the shuttle, the only
utensils requisite being an iron comb,
a large clumsy knife. a stick of wood,
tokmak Ga kind of mallet) and a pair
of scissors. The fringe, which one
often sees at the two eXtremities of a
rug, are the two particles of thread
which are bound around the bars of
the loom, and which are cut On COM
pletion of the rug.
One can hardly form an idea of the
enormous work and monotony in the
weaving of rug, which, as is ex-
planned above, is made by the union
of millions OF knots by the hand. So
familiar do these women become with
the operations of weaving. that it is
with difficulty one can see their hands.
so quickly do they manipulate the
threads.-N Y. Mail and Express.

GOOD BEAR STORIES.

Told by a Man Who Has Hunted Bruin
Under Peculiar Circumstancos.
l was once present at a great fair
at the capital town. While at it's
height bear was viewed on the
neighboring hillside. 1 hurried up
with my rifle and shot him from above
between the shoulders, but instead Of
dropping. he rushed headlong into the
middle of the fair and squatted in a
bush. The people foolishly crowded
around, and so prevented my getting
a shot Presently he rushed forth,
and passing grain dealers shop. he
gave the owner a slap in the face and
passed on, but that slap took out a
semicircle of his jaw with seven teeth
attached. The mans nerves were SO
little affected that he presently held
up the piece of jaw with pride for our
inspection when we visited him at the
hospital, and he was at his work again
in few days. The bear was soon DIS
patched after he left the poor grain
dealer. Though the deadly wound
l gave the bear failed to stop him, I
was more fortunate with another bear
which got a shot at going at full gall
lop, and / rolled him over with one
shot so that he never moved again.
He was a big one, but doubled up just
like rabbit. Stalking bears is just
trifle tame as they are so easily APP
preached and afford SO large mark,
but driving them is more exciting.
There is all the excitement of noise
and numbers. and it is more difficult,
of course. to hit them. In the Hima-
layas we had some wonderful spots for
bear driving. In one drive ten bears
were secured. A quaint old planter
used to join in these battues. He had
perfect armory of guns and rifles,
but none of them modern or precise.
He used TO take his blacksmith out
with him, who would. on the spot, ad.
just the bullets to the required gauge
and hammer them home when a tight
fit His many and cratic weapons
caused us more anxiety than the bears
He had a way of claiming as his tro-
phies all that were shot He could
not tell. / suppose, what he had not
hit -Murray's Magazine
