The prescribed treatment for cases Of sun
stroke is as follows;
Carry the patient into q cool and shaded
place, where is plenty of pure, fresh air, and
strip his clothing to the waist, and place him
in recumbent position. Pour cold water
lice water il best upon his head and chest
until consciousness returns. The points at
which the blood may be most effectually
cooled are the wrists, the temples, and the
ears, because at those points it approaches
the surface more nearly in considerable
quantities.
Internally, small doses of brandy may be
administered with success; but in all cases
Of sunstroke the patient should, as soon as
possible, be placed in charge ofa competent
physician. The patient should do no men
tai work for some months, and should keep
free from all excitement Persons who have
once suffered from sunstroke are liable to a
second attack. Insanity, in some Of its va
ried forms, frequently follows sunstroke.
In heat exhaustion give alcoholic stimu-
lants and place the patient in hot bath, so
as to raise the bodily temperature.

PLUMBERS ON STRIKE
They Begin a Fight Against the
Reduction of Wages.
TWO OF THE BOSSES YIELD.
Sourneymen Joined by Jobbers and
Helpers-The Central Labor Union
Opposes Labor Factions.

Inc reduction in plumbers wages decided
upon by the Master Plumbers Association has
resulted IN strike OF all the plumbers in the
city except six employed in Kaufman Bros
shop and two or three in P. V. Dwyer & Bro.'s
shop Those two firms, having refused to stand
py the decision of the association, continue to
pay the former scale of wages
The reason given by the bosses for the reduc-
uon Is that prices have been too high for plumb
Ing, considering the depressed condition of
business all around, and they therefore decided
10 reduce the rate charged Their customers on
december z, from 81 to SIS cents per hour for
eacn Iourneyman employed on a job, at the
same time giving the iourneymen notice of
reduction from $3.50 to 81 per dav in their
wages
The Plumbers Union at its next meeting
promptly voted not to accept the reduction and
notified the bosses to this effect The Journey
men claim that the bosses have been charging
high rates and making money, and if they de-
sire to give the public the benefit OF lower prices
they can afford to do it by cutting down their
own profits, but that they have no right to pre-
tend TO be surrendering something for the pub
lie welfare and then in turn take it from their
employees They say that each shop is allowed
jobber-an apprentice who has half mastered
his trade and receives s.. so per day with an ad-
vance of 10 cents per day every six months-and
for the services of these jobbers they have been
charging their customers 81 per hour for odd
jobs. They do not consider it a strike of the
plumbers, but loek-out-a strike on the part of
the bosses.
There are in all about thirty-fve plumbers in
the city besides the iobbers and helpers, and,
when the plumbers struck, the bosses relied on
the jobbers and helpers to carry on the work
and thus break the backbone of the strike. But
Immediately after the plumbers struck all the
iobbers, and as many of the helpers as knew
sufficient about the trade to be of much use to
the bosses also quit work.
If the strike lasts long it will materially affect
the carpenters employed on several buildings in
which the plumbing has not been done, by
forcing the shutting down of the jobs and
throwing them out OF employment.
