Things Worth Remembering.

When you feel a kind of neness

your food does not sit well aud that
you are about to have lit Of indiges-

When you begin to feel nervous and
are unable TO sit sill comfortably
when your clothes suddenly seem to
lose their tit and become too tight in

upon you.
When this fit of indigestion is re-

RIVER STRIKE STILL ON.

The Miners Hold Out but the Operators
Hope to win-Coal Held in the South
ern Markets-More Firms to Be Prose-
cuted.
The Coal Exchange held meeting in the
Iron Exchange building yesterday. The
meeting was we'll attended, and much
interest was taken in the proceedings. The
reports from the river miners were gener-
ally favorable to the operators, though the
miners still refused to return ct the re-
duced rates. The opinion prevails among
the operators that it is only the matter of o
short time when the mines will be in oper-
alton on the same terms as the railroads.
The report of rise in the price of coal
at Cincinnati is causing the operators some
uneasiness, as each reported rise only
tends to prolong the strike and make
the miners more determined in their stand.
While there is considerable coal in tie
Southern markets held by Pittsburg firms
they are generally holding it for better
prices while some few are holding it up
with the expectation of O long shutdown in
the mines. Barge water is not expected
for some time, so that should the supply be
exhausted the Southern markets would
have to be supplied by the railroads.
"John f. Walton & Co. have about Is
barges of coal at New Orleans" said Cap
tain /. N. Bunton, 'and have given orders to
sell at cents a bushel No matter what
the market is they will sell at that. The
reports from the pools indicate an early
settlement of the strike, but I am not both
ering myself much about it just at
present.
The report that the Eclipse mines in the
fourth pool had started up at the reduced
rate is not believed by many of the river
operators They have had nothing to con-
vince them that a start has been made as in
that case general break among the strik-
ers would likely result and the operators
are slow to accept the report

continuance of an organization, including
the representative iron and steel workers

The officers installed were the President
and Secretary with their staff of assistants
The Inauguration ceremony was very brief
and was conducted by Vice President w.
A. Carney, who instructed the new officers
as to their duties, and received bonds from
them on behalf of the trustees of the asso-
citation. The leading officials of the order
were present, and 1t was a very pleasant

HIS TRIP POSTPONED.

Jim Ross Captured on the Eve of His De-

A warrant was issued and Constable James
James went to Ross home in Bloomfield
and found him with packed satchel ready
to start away. He had a ticket to New
York and a passage to Italy. When he
learned the officers business he jumped out
of window and made desperate effort to
escape, but he was recaptured after short
chase. On the way to the Alderman's Of

drew a knife, which was taken from him,
and then he went along quietly. At the
Alderman's Office Ross returned the money
and paid the costs and the suit was with

HOTEL MEN KICKING
Against a Proposition to Suppress Their
Billiard Rooms

Against a Proposition to Suppress Their
Billiard Rooms.
Proprietors of all the frst-class downtown
hotels are exerting their influence to secure
an amendment or the defeat of Chief
Browns poolroom ordinance. The bill
passed Select Council three weeks ago but
was postponed last Monday by Common
Councilman Thorn in that branch. It re-
quires that all pool and billiard rooms
shall be licensed by the police bureau, but
absolutely prohibits hotel or saloon keeper
the privilege of license. 1t is argued that
in so far as it affects the ordinary pool
rooms, where so many boys take their first
step toward the bad, the ordinance is all
right, but as to the respectable hotels who
maintain billiard tables for the use of their
guests and exclude minors it is an injustice
A number of Councilmen have already
promised to assist in amending or defeating
the bill as it now. stands

Bad Water Running Locomotive Boilers on
the B. e. O. and Pemicly Roads.

Bad Water Running Locomotive BOllerS ON
the b. & O. and Pemicky Roads.
In connection with the statement of
President Mayer, of the b so. Railroad,
to delegation of coal men from Pittsburg,
that the use of YouRhiogheny river water
had so injured the eompany's Locomotives
as to seriously cripple their business, 1t
NAV be stated that two locomotives on the
Pemickey road have been rendered unfit
for service from this cause during the past
48 hours, This isn't the worst of it Word
came Yesterday from Scott Haven, on the
same road, that three engines had given out
there. On this line, as on others, the freight
traffic could not be properly handled with
the entire equipment Of the road working
to its full capacity, and the crippling of so
many engines at once puts the road in bad
shape.
Last night several B. & o. engineers said
they were running with locomotives that
are in bad shape and rapidly getting worse.
The only permanent relief is in the compile
tion of Superintendent Holbrook's spring
water scheme. as the other engineers say
that the "Yough" river water has been
steadily growing worse from year to year,
AID in the nature of things will continue to
do so until it is unfit for use except at the
height of floods in tine spring and fall.
