HOISTED A FLAG.
Fon-Union Men at the Upper Union Mills
Celebrate a Victory.


PIrTsBURG, Aug. 11.--At II o'clock
Tuesday three workmen stepped out on
the roof of the machine shop of the up
per Union mills and quickly ran up a
large American flag to the top of high
flagstaff, amid the cheers of hundreds of
non-union workmen in the mill,
Superintendent Dillon, of the Union
mills, said: 1--WE raised the flag as an
emblem of our victory. Every train of
rolls i'll the Thirty third street mills were
in operation today on single turn, and
before the week is over we will have
men enough to operate the mill double
turn. We have between 600 and 700
men in the mill now
No attempt has been made to start the
Twenty ninth street mill.
New Scale Signed.
The Carnegie Steel company Tues
day gave out the scale it has arranged
for the upper Union mills. The scale is
almost the same, item for item, as this
years Amalgamated association scale
which the firm had signed. There are
but few slight changes made. The scale
Is based on the $685. pudding rate,
which the other Pittsburg manufac.
turers say they can not pay. Each EN-
ploye has signed an individual contract
for eighteen months, so that the scale
will expire at the end instead Of the
middle Of the year.
1t is the plan of the Carnegie company
to have all Its scales expire at the end OF
the year, to be able to know how to fig.
ure on years contracts. The scale
expires Dec. 81, 1894. An official of the
company said Tuesday: 1--WE are will
ing to pay a fair price, but will recog'
nize no organization. We shall fix ouI
scales for ourselves without any outside
assistance

Cows TO be MIXED by a Machine.

A machine was received at The
custom house which it is claimed will
revolutionizc the dairy industry and
DO away with That useful adjunct OF
every well regulated farm, the hired
hand, who does the milking. The
machine was imported from Glasgow,
Scotland.
The machine, il is claimed. will milk
thirty cows in one hour. 1t is con-
structed Oh tie vacuum principle, and
when adjusted to the COW the milk
flows in continuous stream. The
machine does the work without assist
aucc. The apparatus received is said
to be tile first one ever brought to this
country and its Use will be in the
natutc of an experiment at ii st. The
machine is largely used in Scotland,
and its practicaniity has been long
ago demonstrated. The one imported
is valued at so in Scotland, but lii

A hot WEATHER VEGETABLE.

The possibilities of the cucumber, ex
cept for picking or salads, are little un
derstood. 1t is excellent in soup, as vel
as fried, stewed, stuffed, and many othe!
ways.
Cucumber Soup-Cut one large, or two
mediums sized cucumbers into thin slices,
strew salt over them, and place between
two plates to drain. Put them into a
saucepan, with quart and half pint of
some white stock, either chicken or veal,
and simmer gently, without reducing the
quantity, for forty minutes. Season with
salt and little cayenne; thicken with
ground rice, or arrow-root, wet with
milk, and, as soon as it has boiled up.
draw to the side of the fire; add half a
pint of hot milk and the beaten yolks of
two eggs. Serve at once. The safest
way to add eggs to any hot liquid is to
turn little of the latter slowly into the
bowl containing the yolks, beating the
white. When the bowl is full, turn it
all into the vessel containing the rest,
still beating, and when thoroughly hot
pour INTO the tureen.
Stuffed Cucumbers-There are several
ways of preparing these. Peel two large
ones, and with a sharp knife cut out a
piece from the side. With small tea
spoon remove the seeds and fill with nice
forcemeat of any kind; replace the
piece and tie securely with stout white
thread. Line the bottom Of saucepan
with thin slices of bacon and veal, lay on
the cucumbers, then another layer of
veal and bacon, three new carrots.

to cut them in halves, take out the seeds
