blockade at Sayre, Penn, and Wav-
erly, n. Y, was virtually raised Sat
urday. About 1880 the ball was SET
rolling at Waverly when freight
on the Philadelphia & Reading from
Sayre WAS stopped in a switch by
the strikers. The military were no
titled aud they marched to the rail-
road tracks and formed line ten
abreast aud marched up the track
to clear the crowd. Hundreds of
people blocked the tracks and banks
along the railroad yelling and guy
ing the military. A picket line was
formed, but while they were form
ing the fire in the engine was mys-
teriously dumped and the pins were
pulled. The fire was rebuilt and
one coal and iron policeman turned
the switch as no switchman dared
to do IL. The train pulled out on
ihe Erie tracks and passed the depot
all right, closely followed by del
egatiun of strikers Lines of mill
tary guarded the train on either side.
1t was soon found that some pins
had been pulled and the train stop
ped again but eventually got of
without further trouble here. Three
trains more passed, but between
lines of military, and the company
claim the blockade Is raised. Mich
ael McNamara, leader OF the strik-
ers, was arrested on the charge
of interfering with the
moving of trains and was re-
leased on bonds Of $1,000 for exam.

THE PRODUCTION Of an abundant

from the use, by those who have become
bald OF gray, Of Ayers Hair Vigor;
al was rapidly becoming gray and
bald but after using two or three
bottles OF Ayers Hair Vigor my hair
grew thick and glossy and the origi-
nal color was restored. M. Aldrich,
Canaan Centre, N. III.
"A trial Of Ayers Hair Vigor has con-
vinced me of its merits. Its use has
not only caused the hair Of my wife and
daughter TO be abundant and glossy, but
il has given my rather stunted mus

81 have used Ayers Hair Vigor for
the past four or five years and find 1t o
most satisfactory dressing for the hair.

center of interest for explanation of this growth

sources of the states, which are fully set forth
In three folders entitled Western Washington

Queer Corruptions.

''Siwash" is the common name for the
Indians in Vancouver's island and in
neighboring British possessions. 1t is
nothing more than a corruption of the
French savage" the name given to
the Indians by early French settlers in
the northwest. The Indians, on their
part, have adopted and curiously cor
rupted English words and phrases.
With one tribe the. ordinary form OF
salutation sounds somethinglike 'sClack-
awaya," and it has been traced to the
fact that the Indians hanging about a
military post were accustomed to hear
the soldiers salute a post trader named
Clark with CLARK, how are your
which phrase the Indians adopted and
corrupted.

STRONG MEN WANTED.

New Ideals Locked For-The Man Of the
Future Will BE Up in Kn"wle dye.
The times are favorable, we think,
ideals. Strong men of the old type,
iron handed warriors and stern legisla'
tors are out of date. On the other
hand. the want Of frmness and princi-
pie in connection with political affairs
was never more conspicuous. We want
a new race of strong men, in whom
the gamester element shall be wholly
absent, and who shall aim to accom-.
Slish their ends not by personal tours
de force, nor yet by craft and Aattery,
but by steady adherence to principle
and patient efforts to awaken the
public to sense of their true interests,
says writer in the Popular Science
Monthly.
The strong men of the future will be
strong in knowledge and in social sym.
pathy, and his strength will be spent,
not in efforts to perpetuate his personal
ascendency, but in efforts to develop all
that is best in the society of the time.
The true strong man, as we conceive
him, will have no greed for power: his
greed, if such it may be called, will be
for usefulness, and he will show his
strength by his willingness to retire at
any moment from q public to a private
position rather than prove unfaithfu1
to his convictions or do anything un.
worthy of a man of honor
!. Strictly speaking, a man who with ad.
equate knowledge and intelligence tries
faithfully to serve the public can never
be obscure. though offices should not
his name. The public at large will rec
ognize and honor his efforts, and his in.
luence may be greater in a private sta
ton than that of score of average leg
islators.
