BUTCHERS STRIKE.
a Number of Men Quit Work Yesterday
Morning


At the meeting of the Journeymen
Butchers Union. of the A. +. of L., held
at Schenk's Hall, on South Market
street, Thursday night, it was decided
to submit contract TO the boss butch
ers yesterday morning, and il IL was not
signed, TO go out on strike at Z o'clock.
The scale provides for workday Of l2
hours and 20 cents per hour for over
work for journeymen, and Is cents for
second hands"
Yesterday morning the Journeymen
Butchers committee, consisting of Pres
ident James BOgard, Secretary Am
brose Schafer, Jr., and Jos. Williams,
waited upon about four-ffths of the
butchers in Wheeling, Fulton and Mar
ms Ferry, and induced the following
firms to sign; Schenk e. Sons, Hess &
Lennon, Peter Felsheimer. Yingllng 81
Riethmiller, of Martins Ferry, and
Louis Gearing. The firm OF Z. Schenk
Il Son was the first to sign. AT their
slaughter house aud pork packing estab-
lishment in Fulton, about 40 men are
employed, or nearly one-half OF the
Butchers Union. 1t is probably the
OuI1 OuICueI uIm NulCu uAoS d oSipu-
lated number of hours for days work,
which can easily be done considering
the amount OF work performed.
All Of the other butchers employ from
one to four men each, and some who are
in the retail trade do not employ any,
doing all the work themselves. One Of
the butchers yesterday said: sit is i'm
possible to regulate the number of
working hours per day for butchers, as
cattle must be killed when IL comes in,
and more must be killed upon some
days than others. One day man will
not be expected TO work twelve hours,
while probably the next day he will
have to work longer"
A REGISTER reporter talked with
President Bogard yesterday regarding
the situation. He said: 1--WE have seen
a great many of the toss butchers to-
day and have induced several TO sign
our agreement There are about 90
men in the union, and 20 are now work
ing, including the 40 men employed at
Schenks. Only about or are out on
strike. The other members Of the
union are men who are out Of employ
ment"

,lononrrh coal BOYCOTT.

. George Crumbscker states 10 the pub
lie that the Monongah coal is the best,
and that the sale OF il Is increasing, and
that the miners Of it are paid as well as
coal miners are paid anywhere, which Is
false in every particular. The factssre,
their miners are not paid the District
price. The sale OF Z has decreased from
five cars per day 70 less than one-hslf
car per day since the boycott was placed
on Mr. Crumbacker and the Monougah
coal by the o. V. T. and l.. A. II Is no

STANTON & DAVENPORT are having
quite "boom" in the sale OF the com-
plete sets of PEALE's REPRINT OF the
ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA. Being
able to get all the 25 volumes at one de-
livery seems to suit many persons better
than buying one volume at time, es-
pecially when liberal discount is the
result.
The SARGENT'S ROTARY Book CASES
seem TO attract the same persons as a
handsome and convenient receptacle for
the set OF BRITANNICA, two being sold
yesterday for that purpose.
Remember that PEALE's REPRINT is
the latest and decidedly the best.

Of Memory

What a blessed thing is memory!
How it brings up the pleasures OF the
past, and hides It's unpleasantnesses'
You recall your childhood days, do you
not, and wish they would return? You
remember the pleasant ASSOCIATIONS
while the unpleasant ones are forgotten.
Perhaps to your mind comes the face OF
some friend. 1t was once a pale, SAD
face. 1t showed marks Of pain, lines OF
care. 1t seemed to be looking into the
hereafter, the unknown future. And
then you recalled how 1t frightened, how
it recovered its rosy hue, how it became
a picture Of happiness and JOY. Do you
remember these things? Many people
do, and gladly tell how the health re-
turned, how happiness came back, how
the world seemed bright. They tell
how they were once weak, nerveless,
perhaps in pain, certainly unhappy.
They tell of sleepless nights, restless
days, untouched food, unstrung nerves.
And then they tell how they became
happy, healthy and strong once more.
You have heard it often in the past,
have you not? You have heard people
describe how they were cured and kept
in health? You certainly can remem-
Der what it is that has so helped people
in America. II not, listen TO what
Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller, who is
known universally as the great
dress reformer, says: six years
ago, when suffering from mental care
and overwork, received the most pro-
nouncsd benefit from the use OF that
great medicine, Warmers Safe Cure"
All, now you remember. Now you re-
call how many people you have heard
say this same thing. Now you recollect
how much .you have heard of this great
Cure. Now you are ready to admit
that memory is usually pleasing, that
the highest pleasure comes from perfect
health and that this great remedy has
done more to produce AMI prolong
health than any otner discovery ever
known in the entire history OF the
whole world.

Tanning Leopards in India.

The Cheetah is tied in all directions, principally from a thick grummet of rope around his loins, while hood fit ted over his head effectually blinds him. He is fastened on strong cot bedstead, and the keepers and their wives and families reduce him to sub mission by starving him and keeping him awake. His head is made to face the village street, and for an hour at a time several times a day his keepers make pretended rushes at him and wave cloths, slaves and other articles in his face. He is talked to continual ly, and women's tongues are believed to be the most effective antisoporifcs. No created being could resist the ef- fects of hunger, want of sleep and feminine scolding, and the poor cheetah becomes piteously, abjectly tame Beast and Man in India.

SOUNDING JARS IN CHURCHES.
A Queer Idea of Architects of the Middle
 Ages.

A Queer Idea of Architects of the Middle
 Ages.
 One of the most singular features of the older churches in England and western Europe is the presence in the walls of large numbers of jars. They, are imbedded in the masonry, with the, neck turned toward the interior of the church and the mouth opening into the audience room. For long time the openings were supposed to be holes in the walls, but a closer examination a number of years ago on one or two of these old buildings disclosed the fact that the openings were the necl1s of jugs, and led to no little speculation as to why they had been placed there. All old churches-that is to say, churches erected from the eleventh to the seven- 3eenth centuries-have them, and in some they are present in great mum bers. A church in Leeds, En- gland, has over fifty, while this num- Der is considerably exceeded in some of the old French churches, nearly two hundred having been counted in the cathedral of Angouleme, in France. The explanation of their presence is easy. They are placed in the walls | with view to the bettering the acous- tic properties of the building. The idea is as old as Vitruvius, who, in work on the Roman theater, advises that earthenware jars be placed in the walls for the purpose of increasing the reso- nance of the building. In several Ro- man structures such jugs have been | found, used in the way afterward adopted by the architects of the middle ages. As to the efficiency of the device it's employment is open to question. For increasing acoustic properties of the rooms the jugs are probably use less, but no one can certainly say that they are so until the experiment has been tried of constructing two rooms, with jugs in the walls of one and the walls of the other solid. A test made under these conditions would determine the question, which otherwise must re. main unsettled.-St. Louis Globe-Demo. craE.

A TANGLED TALE.
The Young stenographer Got Matters {: Little Mixed.

The Young stenographer Got Matters , {; Little Mixed.
 There are stenographers and stenog- raphers, and there is as great a differ ence between them as there is between flock of geese and an oil we'll i; MT. Grippe, who travels for whole sale house located in this city, knows this as thoroughly as anybody. While on trip into the 'trooral deestricts" recently, he stopped at country hotel in which a stenographer had opened an office for the convenience of the public, says the Chicago Times. He knew he ought to write to his wife, but his time was so taken up with business that it was just train time, and he hastily dictated the following to the young lady amanuensis:
 "Dear Wife: Reached here all right and am feeling like real trump. I'm after business this trip and will not re- turn until get it. I'm burning my bridges behind me SO that can not re. treat. You will pardon this short let ter, but one sheet is all that I have time to get off. Your loving husband. '
 Instructing the stenographer to type. write the letter and mail it to his wife's address, MT. Grippe hurried after his train. When he reached home few days ago his wife met him with 8 strange look in her face.
 ''Are you sober?" she asked.
 "Yes, dear; quite so," he answered.
 "And perfectly sane?"
 "Why, to be sure!''
 "Nothing wrong with your mind at
 'No, and what in the world induces you to ask such a question%'
 ''Well, your letter of few days age led me to believe you had been drink. ing or went crazy" and she laid it be- fore him:
 "Dear Wife: Reached here all night and am feeling like a real chump. I'm after business this trip and will return until get it. I'm burning mybreeches behind me so that can not retreat You will pardon this short letter, but one shirt is all had time to get off,"
 Hereafter MT. Grippe will never be in too great a hurry to read proofs of his letters typewriter by promising but not thoroughly competent stenogra' phers. They sometimes get their notes mixed.-N. Y. Journal.
