The Object of the Cokers.


PITTsBURG, Aug. 13.-Reports received
this evening from the coke region are that
several of the independent operators posted
notices to-day that they will pay the wages
demanded by the new scale and an effort
will probably be made to start some of
their plants tomorrow. 1t was ascertained
to-day that several non-union men were
working at Rainey's Meyer works, guarded
by Pinkerton men. The executive beard
X. of L., to-day issued a manifesto to
the cokers in the Connellsville region
in which they state that up to date
firms controlling 10000 ovens have signed
the scale. and many Of the remaining 5000
ovens are idle, not because the operators
owning the plants refuse topay the wages,
but because they refuse to sign the scale.
An appeal is made for an assessment of 81
per man to maintain the workmen who will
be idle until the scale is signed. The post
ing of notices that the firms agree to pay
scale wages will not be accepted-the scale
must be signed. The object of the strike
was as much for unanimity as for an ad-
vance in wages

ers from the East.
STREAToR. Ill, Aug. ia new phase of
the mining situation developed here to-day
which will give the striking miners more
trouble than they had previously antici-
pated 1t is said on good authority that
the Star Coal Company, whose mine is To-
Gated at Kangley. near here, had completed
arrangements by telegraph by which a full
quota of men to run their shaft will inside
of thirty days be landed here from West
Virginia. This company employ yed during
the last year something over 400 men. The
Chicago, Wilmington a. Vermilion Com
pany, which has always given employment
to at least 1000 men, is also
said to be negotiating for men
from other points. This company
operates mines at Braidwood, Lasalle,
Seatonville and other places, and has
grown tired of the repeated strikes. If the
miners of these places desire to resume
work they will have to do it quickly, the
operators say, as they do not propose to
take all the contracts and lei the market
for their produce be forever destroyed.
Many of the miners own their own homes
and are willing to go to work at the prices
offered, but are prevented from so doing by
the more radical element and the hOt-head-
ed foreigners, who are In the majority.

An OId-Fashioned Girl.

writer in the Fitchburg Sentinel, q" and
1 want to tell you something about
her."
Her dresses, etc., were made in
modern style; but, bless you! she was
so old-fashioned that she arose in the
morning when her mother did, helped
set the table neatly, and cooked one or
two dishes daintily, her ''Own self
She had graduated" yet she did
not think that because of that fact
that the kitchen was not good enough
for her, D, MOI She was SO much be-
hind the times that she actually wash

and then began preparations for the
pudding for dinner. Now, wasn't she
absurd. when she following the ac-
customed rut) should have been lying
on the parlor sofa with the latest novel
in her hand and her pug dog beside
herP When her little brother came in
crying because his kite was broken in
stead of calling him n ''hOrrid boy" as
is the fashion to do in some homes,
she helped with her own hands to
mend it. How could she be in such
small business?
After dinner had been cleared away
she proceeded to mend the family
stockings. Shocking! After her task
was completed she accompanied her
mother on Il shopping expedition, and.
although she met many tne-looking
gentlemen. she did not hirt with any
of them, for. don't you know, she was
SO antiquated she would have been
shocked ut the idea. As if it wasn't
elevating to the intellect to be on the
watch for some masculine person to
fascinate!
The girl of whom | am telling you

fresh color in her face, brought on by
plenty of exercise in the open air and
in the kitchen. But L can't begin to
tell you half this queer girl did. for you
know she was so old-fashioned that she
did whatever good deeds came into hel
heart to do; and her heart was such an
antique affair that only pure, noble
thoughts entered it. Her home was
made bright aud sunny by her pres
ence, aud yet she was not so perfect

was going up the mountains for pine

started up the mountain as the team
approached.

back to the cub, and, giving it nudge
with her nose, started up the mountain
again, expecting the young one to
follow.

old bear then came back the second
time, and, taking the cub in her arms,
gave him several cuffs.
