sembiing Behind the Hiiis.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 1.-THE chilly at
mosphere OF the early morning was begin
ming to be warmed by the rays of the morn
ing sun when the determined men of Home
stead, who had stood on the hilltops about
the town for five weary hours, threw their
rifles over their shoulders aud went back to
the beds from which they had been aroused
by another alarm that the Pinkertons wero
coming This information was received
from such a reliable source that even the
most conservative Of the leaders could not
but place credence in it. The dispatch came
from a trusted agent OF the Amaigamated
association.
1t stated that the Pinkerton forces were
on their way to Homestead and would dis
embark from their train on the disused
Wheeling branch Of the Baltimore and Ohio
at a point northwest of Homestead near the
Carnegie property. and from over the hills
and under cover OF the Carnegie companys
houses endeavor to effect secret entrance
TO the idle mill.
But the hours passed away and no hostile
force arrived IL was disappointment to

thankfully shouldered their arms and walk

authentic asource for that. Notwithstand.
ing the seeming unreliability OF the warn
ing. the leaders believed it was based on
some actual information, and vigilance has
increased accordingly The belief is firmly
liked in the minds Of nearly everybody in
Homestead that Pinkerton detectives are
IN town obtaining information of some
tort, and acting on this belief suspicious has
increased to an almost incredible degree
Every presumed intimation Of an unsympa-
hetic feeling for the cause Of the locked
)ut men is resented, an open attempt to
turn them from their present course would
De dangerous.
One Of the leaders of the strikers was
islSed by United Press reporter what the
outlook is for the advance OF the Pinkerton
force which is supposed TO be assembling
over back of the hills south Of the Carnegie
mills He replied: There is no question
about the presence of armed men south OF
the range Of hills. Our scouts have located
them in dozen places. They are in groups
and are moving about. They are gradu-
ally getting together and win in all prob.
ability make a feint upon some point in our
lines which they believe weak / do not
think their first attack will be a serious one.
They are back from two to three miles from
the river and are evidently waiting for re.
I endorsements.

so that they win not attract notice. Not
one Of us doubts the presence Of these mer
and that they intend to make an attempt tC

How They Secured a Scant Meal
Composed of Barnacles.
In the water off the site of the old
Hatch mill at the railroad wharves,
says the Tacoma Herald, a bunch Of
logs has lain for a long time. The
other day a lot OF sea gulls alighted
on them. Among the flock was a
monster gull who seemed.to be the cap
tain, and who, assubsequent events
revealed, possessed an intelligence
not commonly attributed to sea gulls'
He walked alone to aparticular log,
stood over on ont side of it close to
the water, and then uttered peculiar
cries. The other gulls followed him,
and all stood over on one side of the
log. The submerged side of the loe
was thick with barnacles. Under the
combined weight OF the gulls the log
rolled to one side. Then followingth e
lead OF the big white captain, the
gulls ran from sideto side ofthe log as
it rolled. Before long as they had the
log rolling to the apparently desired
pitch. The barnacles showed above
the water, and the gulls would reach
over and pick them as they came
above the surface, all thetime keeping
the log rolling. 1t was a pretty hun
cry flock of gulls to pick at barnacles
but they wanted something to eat
and evidently they knew how to gel
