occupied by Italians who are working on

have had floating over their huts an Italian

miners there. The other night the miners
assaulted the Italians and demanded that
they draw down the flag and put up the
American flag. The Italians declined and
the miners fred on the flag and drove the
Italians into the shaDties. The flag was
hauled down and burned. The Italians
then opened fire on the miners with shot
guns and pistols. The miners replied and
riddled the shanties with shot. The battle
lasted for half an hour. Nothing serious
resulted. although some of the combatants
were peppered with fine shot. Great ex-
citement prevails, and another encounter Is
expected. Two Of the riotous miners were
arrested. The attention of the Italian

no reason to believe, however, that the
present attack is more serious than previous
ones. What he needs Is absolute rest
There is 10 doubt that Gould over
exerted himself in the week before Thanks

me that on the day after his fathers last
