A PHILADELPHIA ssImDrASsion :,

Philadelphia Record: There never was
a more surprised and dumbfounded manin
Philadelphia than certain well known
merchant whose wife presented him a short
time ago with little Chinese baby. my
- IN he exclaimed, when the nurse de-
posted the newborn infant in his aims,
where did you get this ~ .sIt is yours,a
emphatically declared the nurse. The be-
wildered man gave one atfrighted glance at
his baby's queer little pigeon eyes, high
cheek bones and bald pate with dark shad-
owy tuft at the crown and nearly tainted
away. He tried to persuade him
self that he was the victim of
some horrible nightmare, but the
evidence Of his senses was too convincing.
He flew to his wife's bedside to find her
also in most distressed state of mind over
the advent of the miniature All Sin. SIT
is all due to that wretched Sunday school
class of yours,' he could not,help moan
ing. For long time his wife has been a
Jealous teacher in one of the local Sum
day schools, and has been endeavoring to
instill the gospel into the benighted minds
of a class OF Chinese. Her labors among
then. had so impressed their features upon
her mind as to produce the disastrous re
suits. Whether or not she will now give
up her interesting class is matter unan-
nOunCed.

Eight Car Loads Of PinkertOH
Men Brought In.

ScoTTDALE, Pa, April 22.-The strikers
are gathering their forces to overcome
the last and most powerful issues brought
to bear by the operators. They are
face to face with two hated and feared
institutions the Pinkerton detective
forces and an alleged invasion of import
edlabor. About 800 Pinkerton detectives
will be brought into this region tonight
and distributed around the different
works where the most strenuous efforts
are being made to resume. There are said
to he no less than eight car loads OF them.
Their coming means farther trouble
which will follow, owing to the hatred in
which they are held. A batch of $50
linkertons arrived here today and will
be placed on duty at Leisenring No. 2,
where extraordinary efforts will be made
to start in the morning against protests
of strikers.
The meeting of the executive board OF
mine workers was held here this evening
and preparations IN financial and other
ways was made to prolong the fight.
There are 500 or 500 Italians on their
way here and they will he stationed at
both Frick and Mcclure works. This
importation of Italians simply means the
beginning of a wholesale importation OF
foreign labor that has beer threatened
for long time by the operators.
