Serious Strike In Progress at Brooks Lo-
comotive Works, Dunkirk. ". ".
DuNKIRK, n. Y, Jan. 30.-A strike wa.
caused at the Brooks Locomotive Work,
here a month ago by the r~iveters in the
boiler department refusing TO work unde-
two contractors, alleging inhuman treat
ment. The lack OF boilers made it neces-
sary to lay off the men in the other de
partments, and now about 600 men are
out of employment.
The Brooks people Saturday brought
philadelphia men here to take the strikers
places. The new men were hurried into
the works and are now quartered there.
Saturday President Human received in
formation that threats had been made
against the works and against the en-
ployes. The protection of Sheriff Jenner
was therefore asked.
That official nj once appealed to Gen.
Doyle at Buffalo for state troops in case
they were needed. Gen. DOYLE has or

Simpler Hospitality.

Several women were discussing recently
a question of reform in hospitality, and
all agreed that there was need of it.
People Of wealth and fashion give such
1ucullus ~feasts, and emulation in that
direction has become so extensive that to
give even a so-cai!ed simple luncheon OF
dinner has become a formidable and ex.
pensive affair. Naturally many people OF
moderate means are debarred from enter
tanning, and rs naturally from accepting
Inequalities which they cannot return.
One of the menus proposed by II member
of them as satisfying and wholesome, but
simple and inexpensive, was clam juice,
hot and strong, as a first course; lamL
chops and peas, or beefstead and mush-
rooms, as o second course, with a desert
of baked apples and cream and a plate Of
sweet waters or small cakes. This daint.
lily served and congenially eaten would
afford an agreeable function within reach
Of many persons who must now shut
themselves away socially.

To the Fair All Things Arc Fair.

At the dressmakers' or modistes'
women are frequently heard to say:
'yiolet and heliotrope used to be such
becoming colors to me; now they do me
scant favor" etc. This is due to the
fact, in many instances, that the crimson
puppies have had their day and the me-
tallic gray and blue puppies are 'in,''
aud to very many persons these colors are
extremely trying. The pure violet,
known as eminence or pontifical, is far
more becoming, but women who nave not
very fair or clear, rosy compilations are
advised to eschew purple in all its color
ramifications, no matter how fashionable
this dye may be.
