for at % cents an hour.

work eleven hours day, to pay twice as
much for board as Fitzpatrick said it
would cost him and he received only 25c
an hour for overtime. \ strike was in
augurated 'but Hachmuth's employers sent
for fifty soldiers, who conducted the
strikers 10 the vile prison in Merida.
They remained there without food or

Wendover, acting on the suggestion Of Capt

Capt. Reid wanted all the stars grouped
into one big star. Mr. Wendover did not
press the adoption OF this feature. lie sue

other to limit the stars TO the Old thirteen.
