PoRrLANp, July 14.-Reports of Il :
startling character from the Caur d.
AIene were expected yesterday, and in
this respect the public were not disap
pointed. Hon. Van B. De Lashmutt, who
is largely interested in the various mines
concerned, and who has been on the
ground since the trouble first began, has
been captured. together with William
Sweeney, the detective, and several
other parties, and hurried away to some
unknown retreat where they are kept by
the strikers, as hostages. What the re-
suit will be no one knows. The author
tiles are determined to restore quiet by
force of arms, and the strikers threaten
to work general destruction ii the troops
appear on the ground. 1t is feared that
if the troops should get into Wallace
every mill of the association members
will be blown up. An effort is now be-
! ing made to hold the troops at Muilan
to avoid the disaster. All the mills OF
the mine where non.union labor has,
been employed have been charged with.
a magazine and a fuse attached. At K
signal, all will be, blown up This how
ever, will be only in the event OF troops
arriving at the scene. CONSERVATION
prevails. A bridge was blown up At
Mullan, and no trains are running be-
tween Wallace and Mullan. The strik-
ers have placed large quantities of giant
powder under the Bunker Hill. Gem and

buildings of those mines, and will blow
up all the properties at the first advance
jof the troops. They have network OF
wires laid, and will ignite the powder

WHAT PRICK SAYS ABOUT WAGES
They Were Higher at Homestead Tina
at ANY other PIace--PinEerton's
Arrangement.

P1rrsBuRG, July 1.-THE talk at
Homestead relates chiefly to prepara-
tions for the resumption of work with
non-union men. AS soon as the works
are ready the company propose to send
the foremen OF the several departments
among the old men for the purpose OF
rendering them the positions IN the mill
which they had previously occupied.
All the higher class of positions In the
mill they thus expect to fill with the old
men, and they expect to be able to sup
plement them by outside help to such
an extent as may be necessary. The
first step that the company is expected
to take will be the introduction to the
mill of sufficient number of mechanics
to make repairs. The services for sew
eral hundred men for at least week
will be required for this work. Unless
they are gotten into the mill quietly
there is general feeling that their ap-
pearance will be a signal for the strikers
| to test the intentions of Gen. Snowden.
! IF the commander OF the National Guard
interferes to protect these workmen, the
strikers will have to decide whether they
will fight the soldiers or surrender.
| The threat that the employees OF the
several mills will strike unless the. COM
pany grants a conference with the
Homestead men will have no effect on
the company. The company will under
no circumstances hold a conference, even
if every man in every mill operated by
the company goes out. At the meeting
of the congressional committee which is
| investigating affairs, Frick said the
wages paid at Homestead We're higher
than at any other place. Chairman
Boatner, of the committee, declared the
scale of wages paid, as explained by
Frick, was the highest wages he had
ever heard Of Capt. Rodgers was ther
called. He told Of the-trip to Home

who went in an official capacity. HI

detailed arrangements with the Pinker

the Finkertons. Frick was not sure
but supposed he had something to d
with furnishing the arms. He coul

Training Race Horses.

Study the iaiosyncrasies Of each indi-
vidul horse. Endeavor that the ground
over which you Try should be as nearly
as possible similar in its gradients to the
course over which the race will be run.
Give your horses plenty Of fresh air and
exercise, but feed aud clothe them we'll.
If it is suggested that they should be
lightly clad In winter consider how you
would like it yourself. Above all things,
remember that a race horse is always
going up or down hill in point Of condi-
ton, and that he is very rarely on the
summit. Change your exercise ground
as often as possible, horses being as la
BILE to boredom as men.--Aondon Satur-

The difference between the use of the
words learn and teach is often insisted
upon, and yet, strangely enough, it is
often disregarded even by persons who
should know how to speak correctly.
The following conversation, which actu-
ally took place in one of the leading
clubs Of Boston, illustrates the way in
which the error is committed:
One member said to another, who was
his friend, and whom he had met driv-
ing during the day:
"Why in the world didn't you lift your
hat to me today when I was with Miss

Rubber Tires for Carriages.

The success Of rubber tires on bicycles
has frequently led to attempts to in
crease the comfort Of buggy and cac-
riage riding by fixing tires on TO wheels,
butan the majority Of instances the at
tempt was not success, as the tire
either came of or wore out in very
short space Of time. Since, however,
pneumatic tires have displaced the solid
ones on bicycles, the attempt is being
renewed, end buggies and other vehicles
are likely to be seen on the boulevards
in large numbers before long as noise
less and free from vibration as bicycles.
Carriage builders believe there is an
immense amount Of money to be made
out Of vehicles with rubber tires on the
wheels, and they are likely to keep on
experimenting until they finally succeed
in producing the desired article.-St.

TWO FIRES AND A NARROW ESCAPE FORM
A GENERAL CONFEDERATION.
Tuesday afternoon fire was discovered
in the engine house attached to the Den
nison Shoe shop. The alarm was flrst
given by Miss Alice Rich. The hose
company were quickly at hand and the
buildings were saved.
Wednesday morning about O'Clock
alarm of fire was again given, this tune
by Mr.. A. A. Hazelton who went through
the village on his wheel, and in every
direction sounded the cry of fire. This
time the fire was in the so called. will
son Block just off Main street, near the
residence of William Bailey. The fire
was we'll under way when the alarm was
given. The building did not burn but
was so damaged by fire and water, as to
be almost total wreck. Had this build
ing burned the village would have suf-
fered considerably-oth buildings must
have also burned. The hose company
just organized did the work of veterans
and much credit is due to Merrill and
Pinkham for their GOODNESS at their new
possible fact is every one worked well
at their places. 1t is understood both
buildings are fully insured. In this con-
nection an efficient fire alarm ought to be
suggested. The tongue taken from the
only church bell in this village on July
4th has not been yet replaced. The
matter should be attended to at once and
the old tongue replaced or a new one
purchased, so that the fire alarm can be
more quickly and thoroughly given.

The haying season is practicallyclosed.
Only a few farmers have not finish
ed. The commencement was later than
usual and the crop large and quality bet
ter than anticipated at the commence
ment of haying. 1t is as large as last
year, quality better and nearly the entire
crop was secured in excellent condition.
On account of the building of the rail-
road, the price of hay will rule higher
than for number of years. The grain
crop is one of the largest and best for
years, and large amount of it is ready
to harvest Other kinds of crops are
looking well. The rust has made its
appearance on the potatoes.
