The FRENCH SEEKERS.


PARIS, Nov TO- Dispatches received
here to-day from various places in the
Department of Pas-de- Calais show that
the striking coal miners are gaining
many accesstons to their ranks.
The strikers now number 36, 000 and
no doubt is entertained that in a very
short time majority of the men still
remaining at work will quit and join the
great body of strikers, -..l
The authorities are taking every pre-
caution to guard against disorders, and
though in some places ithe m ners dis
played a very bitter feeling, there has
as yet been no serious disturbance of
the peace, but only a trivial outbreak
here and there that has speedily been
suppressed.
AS in all labor troubles in France,
there is danger that the Socalistic ele-
ment may incite riotinS, and, as a
matter of fact, prominent Socialists are
at work among the discontented and
striking miners, spreading their lawless
tenets They are closely watched, how
ever, and upon the least indication of a
general resi- stance to the law they will
be speedily lodged in Jail.
To prevent the patrols appointed by
the strikers from approaching the pits in
their endeavor to induce the workers to
| quit, and also to guard against an at
tack either against the men working or
upon the property of the mine owners,
strong detachments of cavalry and in
fantry have been stationed about the va
! rious pits.
/ The presence of the troops, it is be-
lieved, will have the effect of keeping the
| strikers, as body, from making a riot
! Gus demonstration.
This is the fourth dayof the strike, and
both the miners and their employers are
confident of victory.
No hint of concession is made by
, either side, and from present indica-
tions the struggle will be a long and Bit

Blanket Your Horse.

Now that cold weather is at hand it is t.
the interest of every person to see that his
stock is properly cared for. Every one
knows how he feels when he is not per.
fectly warm and protected from the colds
and draughts, and how apt he is to catch
cold. There is no animal which is So
susceptible to draughts and chills as YOU
horse. At night when sleeping his blood
becomes sluggish am he is liable to catch
cnld. In recent years it has become the
fixed rule with all owners of good stock t.
carefully blanket their horses not only
when out Of doors, but also in the stable.
1t has been found that horses eat less to
keep warm, are Kept in better condition,
and are more valuable by being banketed.
One Of the most essential features which
should be looked At when purchasing a
horse blanket is its strength. Too much
credit cannot be given to the manufacturer
of the celebrated 5-A Horse Blankets, VINO
for years, have insisted upon put ing strong
blankets upon the market, believing thai

What They are Good For.


Brandre.h's Pills are the best medicine
known.
First-They are purely vegetable, in fact
a medicated food.
Seeond-The same dose always produces
the same edect-other purgatives require
increased doses and finally cease acting.
Third-They purify the blood.
Fourth-They invigorate the digestion
and cleanse the stomach and bowels.
Ftth-They stimulate the liver and
carry off yitiated bile and other depraved
secretions.
The first two or three doses tell the story.
The skin becomes clear, the eye bright, the
mind active, digestion is restored, costive-
ness cured, the animal vigor is recruited
and all decay arrested.
Brandre!h's Pills are sold in every drug
and medicine store, either plsin or sugar
