HARD LINES AT srREAroR.


Operators Unable to Sell Coal 1t Profit
and Pay Living WagoA
Hon. Fred Y. Wines, of the Illinois state
board Of charities. who has been making
an investigation into the Streator mining
troubles, Is quoted - saying that he does
not think the arbitrators proper, Nessrs.
Williams and Rend. will reach an agree
ment. One thing has been shown with
conclusiveness, that many Of the miners
are working for less than living wages.
But the operators have also introduce
strong evidence to show they can not in
crease wages; that they can not renew old
contracts at old prices, and that the new
price leaves them no margin at oil. Both
sides have strong points and it is o diff
cult thing to adjust.
Rlotous procee 'ings Of the striking
miners at Kangley has caused considerable
apprehension. Headed by 15O women, the
whole mining population of the town
marched to the shaft Of the Star coal COM
pany. and armed with various weapons
dared the miners at work below to come
mp the shaft. When three men climbed to
the mouth Of the pit they were roughly
handled, and the others were afraid to
come up. The deputy sheriff wLo went
from Streator 10, isperse the mob could do
nothing TO quiet the excitement, and had
it not been for the extreme lightning and
rain storm which came MP serious trouble
would have resulted. A renewal of the
riotipg is feared.

The Legislature, therefore. will Getelnine

The committee on Legislative appOrtion
MSent reached an agreement on the sen to-
TlAi apportionnent, BY which the number
" districts is fixed at forty one and &c -
tOrs at forty five: the latter being the limit
provided IN the constitution. The arrange
mont Is practically in accord with the ap-
pOftionment agreed upon some time ago,
being one senator for every 1900 voters or
major fraction thereof. The report Of the
committee was not unanimous, standing
13to .. The minority object to tn Il num-
bef OF senators MS being too great for the
pre- sent population.
A long. sharp, pointed and for the most
part interesting debate occurred on the
24th over the report OF the Judiciary COM
mittee on the apportionment Of the iu-
di.ial districts. The minority report con-
templated the putting Of Beadle, Sphinx
and Brown countics into different circuits,
and therefore recommended a different
formation of the third, fifth and sixth
E, istricts. The majority report was, how
ever, adopted.
NC coMIntttee on rules reported that
ce titicates be issued to members and en-
p!oyes for rtr dion after the federal ap-
propfia'ion of $4,000 become exhausted.
The other new reports submitted were
Tor submitting the minority representa-.
tion clause and the prohibition .lange as
separate articles. Also the report OF the
on revenue and finance.
The committee on legislative apportion-
mont has made its report. The senate is
given fo,ty-iive members and the house
l2a. Tho committee has given to each
county at least one representative indcpen-
dent OF any other county aid as many
mord ms its vote-counting 600 voters or
major fraction thereof-will entitle il to,
The apportionment is as follows:

Tobacco Crop Status.

The farmers in this county now havc in their barns by far e best crop ot tobacco that it has ever been our recol- lection to see housed in Trigg. It + large, has been well handled, and W, ascertain from planters that it has been well cured. Some of it has been stripped, but little prized, anG scarcely none sold The subject of non-production next year has some weight with farmers a, tO when will be the most desirable time to sell. The scarcity of money will doubtless cause some to put their crops on the market earlier than they otherwise would. We have not heart of any large number of planters draw. ing money upon their crops. Up to Q recent date warohousemcn did moi seem 10 be as anxious to risk money on tobacco aS they had heretoforo, but oi late there has been an offer from a number of reliable houses to furnish a reasonable amount, and some hayt accepted. -Cadtz (hy.l Telephone.

TURNING THE TABLES.
How s Thoughtful Lover Outwltted Ills
 Best Girls Father.

Mir Hummer had appeared to be nervous for somo time.
 Ever and anonymously he would lower his paper and look over his spectaclcs at the clock, and his face would take on more cruel and deter mined expression.
 Mrs. Hummer said nothing, as she rapidly piled her needle, but occasion ally she also would cast furtivc and anxious glances at the clock and her husbands face.
 Neither the husband nor the wife broke the silence, until the old-fash- toned clock on the mantle-piece had a mysterious inward convulsion, and chimed out the hour of eleven. Then. with sudden gesture, Mr, Hummer threw down his paper, and turned to his wife, with suppressed tierccness in his manner, and asked:
 "ls that young Beauman in the par Tor yct?'
 Mrs. Hummer could only nod in re- ply, while her face assumed an even more anxious expression,
 A moment Mr Hummer hesitated, and then, rising with but poorly con cealed anger, he drew upon his good right foot the heavy boot which had covered it during the day, and while dear, timid little Mrs. Hummer con- cealcd her face in her handkerchief, tipped softly out into the front hall, and as silently closed the door.
 All was still. The silence seemed almost painful to the tender hearted little mother waiting in the living room, and she longcd to warn her daughters lover of his peril.
 Minutes passed, which seemed as hours, but there came to her ears no sounds of violent altercation. The sus- pense was terrible
 Suddenly the door opened softly and old Mir. Hummer tiptoed in again. ike the "Son John of history. witE one boot of and one ooot on, and stoOd be. fore her
 For full mindle he stood gazing silently at his wife, with puzzled ex-
