BIen Who Have Become Famous Run
ming High Jumpers.
The most popular style Of leaping is the
running high jump. 1t is also the easiest
jump to practice, because the ground on
which it is done needs no preparation be-
yond being dug up so rs to give soft
place for the jumper to land in. The ap-
paratus used consists of two uprights
pierced with holes one inch apart, from 8
to 6 feet in height from the ground,
and cross bar from TO II feet in length
and about an inch square. Anylevel place
is suitable for the jump, although the best
is we'll rolled, sunbaked clay, which con-
tains much elasticity and yet is very firm.
Good grass is the favorite substance in Eng
land on which to contest the running high
Jump, but in America grass cannot be
found good enough to stand the wear.

The dancing master still plies his trade In
the ireland of today, despite the fact that
politics occupies the mind OF the Irishman to
an absorbing extent In the prosperous, or

southern counties the squeak OF "a cracked

serious race than thcy generally have credit

ever carried out with the solemn sense of re-
sponsibility belonging 20 an Irish jig; the
cheeks may be flushed and the eyes sparkle,
but tho lips keep their stern gravity, and,
except for an occasional whoop when the
heels strike the ground, and the subdued
more power of the audience the dance is
conducted in silence.
IL must be tho responsibility OF the steps

ScoTTDALE, Pa, April 21.-The strik-
ers are very angry over the news that
five hundred Pinkerton men will he
placed on guard in this region tomor-
row. Their coming means further
trouble, which will certainly follow,
owing to the hatred in which they are
held. A meeting of the executive board
of mine-workers this evening made
preparations in financial and other ways
to prolong the fight. Five or six hun
dred Italians are also on the way here to
take the place of the strikers, and this
causes more bitterness.
A dispatch from Uniontown says a
noted socialist, named Jones, is coming
into the region tomorrow to hold mass
meetings. The labor leaders say they
are not in sympathy with him, but it is
known the socialists are the most deter
mined of the strikers.
