The OrrstaI class Works.

In giving his reasons for offering to
start the Crystal Glass Works at a tenn
porary reduction Of 25 per cent, the
Secretary says he was panied TO learn
that many glassworkers are working on
the streets Of Martins Ferry, Bellaire,
Wellsburg and other places at 81 to
81 so per day, so he decided TO offer
them something better. Besides, il is
well understood among glass men that
25 per cent. reduction will not reduce
their weekly pay very much, If any, II
they abolish their limit on moves.
We hope to be in the swim again by
January l, and will pay the ruling
& whether the men are willing TO
work now or not; but If they are will
ing TO take something now that is much
better than working on the streets and
paws cash every Saturday, the Crystal
is the place TO apply for it. II they get
a Job now they will have it when bust
ness opens up next spring al as good
wages as other factories pay.

Henry Hartman, q neighbor, who is an
employe Of Waterhouse Bros. Henry
got badly worked up, but screwed up
enough courage to approach the stable
and lock the door. He then hurried off
for a police. BY this time the stable
was surrounded with persons. The
story went broad cast, that dangerous
characters were locked in the barn.
1t didn't take Henry long to
GO to Thirty-seventh street and return
breathless with Officers Minkemyer and
Riddle, while young men were stroIling
about the barn yard with shot guns,
ready to do the supposed desperate
characters up. The stable was unlock

Armed to the teeth they assembled TO
the loft. They found there Mrs. Sorg's
son with his hound tied beside him.
The young man had decided to get an

wish to wake the household at an early
hour. 1t was n Sheepish looking crowd
that left the barn yard near IL o'clock.
