SCoTTDALE, Pa, May 2S.-The rush Of
old men for work at the various plants
continues. In most instances, however,
they are turned of with an excuse and
given to understand that their services are
not needed. Hundreds of the old miners
are drifting from one works to another in
the vain hope of finding work, but every
where they 90 they are met with the same
statement: NO work now" This simply
means that the blacklist has gone through
the regions aad man re-
fused at one works is certain to
be refused at another. As a
result they are either preparing to
leave the district for another field
or are drifting aimlessly about. More
homes have been broken up by the strike
that has Just closed than by all the strikes
that have preceded this most gigantic
failure. Reports are coming in hourly oil
the hopeless destitution of hundreds OF
families. Heretofore many of them have
been given credit at the stores, owing to
the idea that at some time or other they
would return TO work. When the opera

were at ;Aeir wits eRe,s. .-aAFith 10 work,

them are today in far worse condition
than they were at any time during the
strike. Hundreds OF others are living on

miner takes pride in-before this, they
would have been obliged to do more than

The Iron and steel Scales.

PITTsBURG, June 1.-The annual conven-
ton of the Amalgamated association OF
iron and steel workers will open in this
city tomorrow and will remain in session
at least two weeks. The wage committee
has been in session for three days prepar-
ing a scale for presentation to the conven-
ton, and from the progress made it is safe
TO say there will be no change in the
price of making iron. The roughers and
catchers are again agitating the question
as to the proportion Of the product they
should receive. They now get % per cent
of the earnings and want 30. 1t is not
likely the committee will agree 10 this
The committee on the steel scale is also
preparing its report. There is a general
feeling among steel workers for a sliding
scale. similar to those in vogue In South
Chicago, Joliet and Homestead, and as
there is a corresponding desire among
manufacturers it Is thought some such
general plan will be adopted. 1t is Rener-
ally believed that manufacturers will ac-
cept the current rate for the new year
without attempting TO reduce it, as has
been suggested in some quarters. The
outlook for the year is not particularly
good, but sufficient business Is in sight TO
obviate any excuse for a reduction on this

CAUSE OF SUICIDE.

Gambling Causes More Self-Dcstructl0n
Than Any Other Woe.
"If We could but obtain accurate statia-
tics We should find that gambling Was Of
all vicious habits, not even excluding hard
drinking, the one which most predisposod
it's victims to suicide. YET" continues this
writer in the Contemporary Review. 'ons
does not quite see at first why gambling
should 80 greatly predispose to suicide.
The gambler prima facie ought to be q man
titude." This, of course, Is true only II
there be nothing in the very conditions OF
his life secretly d~isintsRrating that forth
tude.
Let us see. II in probable that an intel
ligent iary will always account Tor the
10 contaminated the awful deed he
had come under the resistless control
Of temporary insanity. Hence We must
try to discover those facts in the
gamblers inward history which lead to this
insanity. I believe they are of W classes,
light of ethical or of psychological or ply
Biological laws. In the region of moral con-
seriousness l do not think We need seek far
for the cause of insanity. The loss of the
mans whole possessions by gambling must
work upon him like a sudden accident upon
n Or0nken nAu-lt hWAkeub Nun. Anu now,
as he looks ut tho result of his cat eer, at
the obligations he has ignored, the relatives
has wronged, even the riches he has lost
in pursuit of the gamblers passion, only
ons word can rise to his mind, and that is
Fool" As he glances around. the men
whom he has been gambling look at
poor foolv' The very servants who have
watched his ruin now gaze at n poorer
than they, and call him in their hearts,
Poor FOOL"
I believe that this word Of scorn, echoing
within or without. filling the atmosphere
Tor that mans ear, accurately describes the
shame which he feels. Ashamed, crushed,
rained, despised by the associates who need
no longer. and called to no new and
,ongenial surroundings by any human
,oice, the wonder is not that so many become
insane, but that every ruined gambler is
lot drawn in the hour OF his awakening
nto the terrible vortex of insanity. The
nan who loses his all in a legitimate COM
nercial undertaking retains at least his
elf-respect, and self-respect is the soul of
iortitude. !

BOTTLED BEER.
How to Pour q Brew That Lots of People

--
How to Pour q Brew That Lots Of People
Take To.
AT dinner, not long ago, some gentlemen
who we're sitting at table with Hugo Blanck,
the noted chemist, observed that he exer-
cised the greatest care in pouring out a
glass of beer. says the Pittsburg Dispatch.
He tilted the bottle gently and slowly, 80
that the liquid passed from the bottle to
the glass without the least disturbance,
and when the glass was full ithad no collar
of froth at all.
II could have understood your case"
said one, "if YOU had been drinking Bass
ale or Guinness stout, that go on a RAM
page if not Ringerly handled, but I confess
I can't see why you bother SO much about a
glass of lager"
Mr.. Blanck cast a kindly look of com
passion upon the critic and said: II
thought every beer drinker knew that it
should be poured SO as to avoid froth.
Surely such a simple yet imrortant fact is
generally known. No? TIM astonished.
Why, If you pour out lager beer headiong
into q glass, allowing foam to fill half the
measure, you lose the best ingredient in
the beer. the invigorating, lively tonic
oarbonio acid gas. Pour the beer slowly
and so,' and Mr.. Blanck illustrated his
meaning by holding glass and bottle in
clined together, land you retain the car
bonio acid gas in the beer. In the old
country more attention to this essential
p]reoaution is paid, but I thought every one
knew about it here, even if they overlooked
its Importance"
