HOMESTEAD, July lG.-The strike is set
Ting down to question Of stamina and re-
sources. The locked ont men, while they
have lost not one inch of ground, vet are
gravely alert TO the situation. They realize
that the presence Of the militia is an obsta-
Gle to even legitimate appeal to non-union
men coming here, and so, while holding
their position with ranks unbroken. their
committee is to-day on visit to Duquesne
for the purpose Of testing the feeling of the
men in the mills thereas to a strike for SYM
pathy. They may be here by midnight and
the news they bring will either materially
rejoice their comrades, or will confirm them
in a snllen resOluteness to triumph or to fall
together.
Futile as any resistance would have been
to the admission Of non-union men into the
mills, the very fact that gang, possibly APP
proximating 100, is within the fence clean
ing the furnaces and making preparation for
4 reopening, has had depressing effec. on
many The policy wss played by the CON-
paay with that very end in view. Did they
put in al once 1000 or 5000 men an era of
iawlessness and reprissl might have fol-
lowed.
TENPrISG THg wAvERISG.
As il is they are tempting back any wa
veFing ones. They slowly augment the
number Of non-Dnion men, and are very
careful to display signs OF activity about the
plant, at the same time Offering places 10 the
locked out men # they will oonle in before
all OF the positions will have been filed.
There can be no question Of the power of
such temptation.
i is that which the association has most
to fear. 1t requires courage of a peculiar
force for man with family to stand out
and see his place open to him, but ready to
be taken by another, aud particularly, as in
the situation at the presenet moment, when
the non union men may enter without fear
Of bodily harm.
The ultimatum Of the company was post
ed to-day on the now famous fortress fence
asont the mills, and Is as follows:
NoricE--IndiyidGa applications for en-
ployment at the Homestead steel works will

The striking mills are in the union and
the scales had Just been signed to the mems
satisfaction. Now, the question is whether
the contract is not broken by the men strik
ing. The men are afraid that the company
may take advantage of this point some
months hence, while they ars working under
the impression that the strike did not affect
their contract. The strikers action is not
approved by the leaders at Homestead.

Tho Sad Part of 1t.

A good soul in Ohio absolutely wor-
ships Dickens, even going SO far as burn
ing candle before his portrait. She
reads nothing but Dickens, and when he
came here to read she wrote to inquire
whether he'd visit the west. Receiving
reply in Dickens own handwriting,
her joy knew no bounds. Her hero could
not leave the east, therefore she deter
mined to go to New York.
Jones, the husband, demurred, but
upon being wakened one night with the
threat that if he did not give her money
to travel like a Christian, she would
walk, Jones succumbed. Mrs. Jones
went to New York, had private inter-
view with Dickens, attended his read
ings, and returned home more rabid than
ever.
When the news came of Dickens
death Mrs. Jones was inconsolable. Not
long after Mrs. Jones' sister died. but
owing to the illness Of this sisters hus-
band, whom she was obliged to nurse,
Mrs. Jones could not attend the funeral.
When the, rest of her family returned
they found Mrs. Jones reading "Pick-
wick" to the sick and bereaved man. AS
relative approached the bed, Mrs.
Jones burst into tears, exclailning: "The
saddest part of it all is to think that
dear Sarah died before l had finished
reading Martin Chuzzlewit' to her; and
nov she'll never, never know how it
endsl Oh, it's too badw-Kate Fields

Electricity in Oyster Culture.

Electricity is about the last thing to
be thought of in connection with oysters,
yet very close association between
them has been established by M. Lacase-
Duthcier, the well known authority on
oyster culture. He makes use of the
electric light in examining the stages of
development through which the spawn
passes. A glass cylinder is mounted in
cylindrical skeleton cage which serves
as a support, and into this glass the
water containing the spawn is placed.
At the bottom is a silvered reflector, and
the cover forms a parabolic reflector, in
the center of which is fixed small in
candescent lamp. The reflector and
sides of the glass cylinder act in such a
way that but few rays of light emerge
from the apparatus directly, hence the
liquid is suffused with soft llumina-
ton which is admirably suited to the
examination of the contents. A modifi-
cation of this little apparatus is now be-
ing employed in various researches into
the life processes of ferments and the
culture of microbes. New York Tele-

A Curf0us Eunrua.

The department of agriculture at
Washington has received from Consul
Jones, located at Chin Kiang, China, a
small bottle containing specimens of a
curious fungus that actually grows from
a species of caterpillar. Unlikely as it
may seem, this fungus literally trans
forms the caterpillar into vegetable,
making the unhappy insect serve the
purpose of root. The caterpillar itself
is the larva of moth peculiar to China
and Japan. When the cold Of winter
approaches, this moth bores hole in
the ground to depth of three to seven
inches and curls himself up to wait for
spring.
While taking his winter sleep he is
often attacked by remarkable disease,
which causes him to send forth shoots
like sprouting vegetable. These shoots
appear and fructify above the ground
like any other species of mushroom.
This remarkable animal vegetable has
no other means Of growth than the curl
GUS one above described.-St. Louis Re-
public.

Slips That Always Raise a Laugh.

S4APD An0e <AAWayb ANnibC u AI0ubns
To few Of us is it given never to make
a slip Of the tongue. On the contrary,
most people have some unpleasant mem
ory or other of some dreadful mistake
they have fallen into, and even although
years may have passed since the fatal
moment when their lips betrayed them,
they are still unable to recall the cir
cumstances without again experiencing
the agony and their cheeks displaying
the blush which followed upon the first
discovery of the slip. Take few exam
pies to illustrate what we have ad-
vanced. 1t was but a very small and
even insignificant change Of letter
which rather spoiled the impressive elo-
quence of a preacher, who, warning his
audience against idolatry, in place of
"Bow not thy knee to an IDOL" made a
false step and said, "Bow not thine eye
to a needle"
In the same way the young clergyman
with the correct Oxford pronunciation
in giving the hymn, "Conquering Kings"
merely stumbled over the first vowel,
but being unable to save himself was
hurried over the precipice and startled
his congregation with the announce
ment, "The hymn tonight will be kin
quering Congs, Kinquering Congs."
Much the same was the pitfall into
which a reverend gentleman walked
when in place of saying "Behold the
fig tree, how it withereth away" by a
simple transposition of two letters he
asked his audience to "Behold the wig
tree, how it fithereth away."-London

A Study of Eyes.

A story is told of the courtship Of the
late Sir George Airy, the famous astron-
omer. By reason of his timidity, he
seemed doomed to be bachelor for life.
But fortune favored him and he drifted
into matrimony in an unexpected way.
An intimate friend remarked to him one
day: "Have you ever observed Miss
IS eyes? They have the property of
double refraction." "Dear me, that is
very odd," he exclaimed; 81 should like
to see that. Do you think might ven
ture to call?'' And call he did, and
begged permission to examine the young
lady's eyes.
The novelty of the situation may have
fascinated him. At any rate he begged
the privilege of second look at the
eyes in clear light; the problem grew
so interesting that he at length came to
the conclusion to make it life study.
The boldness born of scientific curiosity
enabled him ultimately to propose. He
was accepted, and the strange courtship
ended in happy marriage. London
