ST. PAUL, Mimi, January A Pho
neer Press Seattle, W. T.. special says
Since New Years day there has been
much wrangling between the Knights Of
Labor and Miners Union, two rival or
ganizations at the little coal mining town
of Newcastle, eighteen miles from here.
The trouble arose over Miners Union
man being given preference over a
Knight. To-day the Knights OF Labor
began an attack upon the Miners Union.
A force of thirty Knights cut the tele'
graph lines, stationed sentinels and began
assaulting the men at the mines.
The attacking party afterwards boarded
the O'Clock train at New Castle, armed
with rifles, and rode to Coal Greek. AT
that point the regular force Of the
Miners Union was attacked by the
Knights with every kind of missile. The
train was on trestle and some of the
leaders we're driven and thrown of, fall
ling seventy feet or more.
They then returned to Newcastle and
assaulted the men there again. Fore
man Duncan Ross was badly injured.
Terrence Mularkey was using his Win
chester upon The Unionists, so the
Miners Union brought out their rifles
and opened fire on the Knights. Three
men fell. Their names are not yet
known. The Sheriff, with posse, went
to Newcastle this afternoon, and as the
fighting was very fierce, called for the
militia.
The latest reports are to the effect that
the trouble is now about over. A train
arrived late tonight with one corpse.
Personal experiences were pretty severe,
and s. F. Crobut, of the Miners Union,
who was injured, says he was first saved
by the bad shot OF Knight, and was
then dubbed down with the butt end of
his gun. Others jumped on him. and he
is badly injured. Other experiences were
like this. The exact details are not now
obtainable.
SEATTLE, w. T., January 1.-Two com
panies of militia have been ordered
from Seattle to Newcastle. Sheriff
Cochrape's telegram has aroused fears
that serious trouble is apprehended. A
report reached here tonight that
the miners of Gilman had sworn they
would have ten lives for Ruston, and
we're going over in force tomorrow to
clean out Newcastle.

CARDIFF TO MATCH JACKSON.
MINNEAPOLIS, January A fight to

Jackson, the colored Australian, is one of
the possibilities of the near future. Prof.
John Donaldson received letter from
member of the California Athletic Club
this morning. in which the writer said
the club would subscribe liberal purse
for fight to the finish between the two
men. Mr.. Donaldson says: Cardiff
will certainly meet Jackson if the Cali
fornia Club will make a purse worth
fighting for. jackson is certainly very
good man with his hands, but think

wants if they come together. and l feel

SAN FRANCISCO, January 4.-Inquirv
at the local offices of Robert Dunsmuir &
Son relative to the lockout at the Well
ington, B. c., coal mines, resulted in the
information that nothing new has tran
spired. The local nanager says that
the price OF coal here will not be affected !;
that the supply on hand is considerable,
and that the strike will be of short dura-
ton. The quantity of coal on the way
here is said to be large. and the likeli-
hood Of the strike spreading to other
mines is small. The manager further
said that the Knights of Labor are at the
bottom of the trouble, and that the men
have no reason for complaint, the great
majority of them finding constant en-
ployment in the mines all the year
round at good wages.

Fhe Importance OF the Industry TO
California.
SAN Francisco, January 4.-The BIZ
ennial report of the State Board of Silk
Culture, soon to be issued, states that
during the year ending June 80, 1888,
over twelve million dollars worth of raw
silk was imported through San Francisco
from Japan, showing the importance of
fostering the industry in California.
About 80 900 silkworms were raised and
distributed gratis throughout the State
by the Board during the year. In the
southern part Of the State, particularly
about San Diego, the subject has
been attracting much attention. One
gentleman writes that he has already
prepared ten acres of land to be devoted
to the silk industry. Another writes
that he has made several successful ex-
periments and has decided to devote his
time and money to the silk industry.

SACRAMENTO, January 4.-Many Sem

Whites selection as President of the
Senate. Howe, of Sonoma, is undoubt-
edly the favorite in the race for Speaker
of the Assembly, although Shanahan, of
Shasta is still in the fight. Ostrom.
OF Yuba, appears to have abandoned the
contest, and is for Shanahan if he can't
get the place himself. This fact is re-
garded with much satisfaction by the
friends of the Shasta man. George W.
Pcckbam will contest with X. F. Smith
for Secretary of the Senate. Edward
Leake will doubtless be Chief Clerk OF

understood, withdrawn.

How Hair-CIoth is Made.

Many people understand, OF course,
how hair-cloth is made. but for the
edification of those who do not we will
explain the process. In the first place,
horse-hair can not be dyed. 1t repels
coloring matter, so to make black cloth
it is necessary to secure natural black
hair. The horses, in many cases abso-
lutely wild. unrestrained, are regularly
coralled and shorn. OF course, black
hair is preferable, but sometimes gray
stock is utilized. Not only the tails
but also the names are cut; the hair is
punched. These punches seldom con-
tain hairs of less length than two feet;
some are even three and one-half feet,
and the thickest of the punches is
usually two or three inches. The hair
cloth looms are provided with what we
may call nipper, in place of shuttle,
and the nipper is SO finely actuated
that it travels across the warp and
seizes from the punches one hair only,
the jaws of the nipper being too fine to
grasp more than one. and carries 1T
across the weft threads, dropping it
into its exact place. The action of the
loom mechanically forces the hair next
to its predecessor. the warp crosses
upon it, snugly holds it in its place,
the nipper travels back and seizes an
other, and so on and on. The delicacy
and almost human accuracy with which
each separate hair is placed between.
the warp threads is really incredible.

HYDRAULIC RAMS.
An Invention That Comes Nearer Perpet
uaI Motion Than Any Other.

An Invention Tnut comes Nearcr Hofpet-
uaI Motion Than Any Other.
Very few farmers understand the
method of raising water by the use of
the hydraulic ram, though there are
many places where they can be profit
ably employed. The invention is an old
one and apparently comes near perpet-
ual motion. The ram itself is pear
shaped iron cylinder, placed in the
ground at depth sufficient to protect
it from the effect of frost in winter.
The spring or well which supplies tho
water is situated at some point above,
SO that there will be a fall of one foot
for every eight feet of perpendicular
height to which the water is to be car
ried. For instance, if it is necessary to
force water up hill to the house,
which stands forty-eight feet above the
spring, the fall must be at least six
feet from the spring to the ram. The
horizontal distance has no effect on the
calculation, and it is often carried hum
dreds of feet, and in some cases over
thousand. The principle on which the
water is forced up is by compressed
air. The water passes from the spring
in pipe, say two inches in diameter,
against check valve, which is lifted
up by the force Of the water until it
reaches a certain point, when Il portion
OF the water is crowded by its own
weight into the ram until the air is so
compressed that it discharges itself
into a small pipe, say half an inch in
diameter, which runs up the elevation
to the barn, house or wherever wanted.
In well-constructed rams the power
mas been found to be about two-thirds
of the energy of the falling water.
Wherever small quantities of water
are needed this way of supplying the
want has been found very convenient
The only thing that seems to stop the
working is a failure of the water sup
ply. Night and day, year after year,
the little air engine works away, need
ing no rest, oil or wind, simply water,
and that in abundance. One in Norfolk
County, Mass. has been in operation
for many years and is still at work
supplying the owners house and barn
with water. To one who has never
seen its workings it is very interesting.
No visible power in sight; the little
valve rises to its proper elevation, re-
mains there an instant. then drops to
its base of operations, only to start up
ward again. which is repeated contin-
ually.-American Agriculturist.

SMuGoLED CIGARS.
A Glover Trick That Has Fooled Great
Many Smokers.


The proprietor and few friends
were sitting around the table in an up.
town cafe the other day, when the
door opened and two men, each carry
ing big bundle under his arm, walked
in and took seats at another table.
The newcomers were evidently foreign
ers, Judging from their olive COM
plexion, sparkling black eyes, and fine
white teeth.
They had an animated conversation
in Spanish over small bottle of wine,
and occasionally shot furtive glances
at the proprietor One OF them walked
over to the table where he was sitting
and asked:
"Does Senior Martinez leev In zis
neighborhoodp"
The proprietor replied that he knew
no one of that name, and the Spaniard
proprietor whispered to his friends:
II know what these ducks are up to-.
Just watch and you'll see some fun. "
Presently the Spaniard crossed the
room again. and addressing the gentle
men around the table said:
~ haf got some arteecles to deleever
to Senior Martinez in New York, and !
haf lost hees cart Do none of re gem
tlemen know Senior Martinez He
keep u beeg cafe"
The proprietor repeated that he knew
no such person.
"Ab," said the Spaniard, ''zat ees
too bad. l haf lot of beautiful cigars,
gran cigars, which haf brought from
Cuba, and / must take zem all back
again"
And he cast appealing glances at tie
proprietor's friends.
Seeing that no one was affected by
this declaration, he leaned over, and in
hoarse whisper said: 81 am zee
steward on Cuban steamer, and ]
have smuggled zee cigars, beautiful
Havana cigars. for Senior Martinez.
Haf you got room where can show
zem to youp Beautiful cigars, gran
cigars, all Havana. Can't take 'em
back no more. Let you haf 'em vera
cheap"
The proprietor, without saying a
word, walked over to where his hat
hung on peg and took it off. The
face of the cigar vender fell. He threw
down dollar bill for the wine. and
hastily grabbing his bundle walked
out of the room, followed by his COM
panion. The proprietor laughed and
said to his friends, who looked sur
prised
That's quite an old game. Those
cigars no more saw Havana than l did.
Those fellows make living by getting
people to believe that they work on
Cuban steamers and smuggle the
cigars. The cigars are usually of the
two for five species. These men are
mighty clever, and it takes an old
hand at the business to detect them.
They probably thought just now that
was going to call a policeman, and
thought it best to skip, even though
they were not smugglers. IN. Y. Sun.
