PRACTICALLY OVER,

But Fears That There May Be Another
outbreak-works Starting Up Again.
USioNrowy, Pa, April 6.-The strike
is practically over and ignominous de-
feat marks its coming collapse. The
movement was a miserable failure and
not point was gained by the men.
They are in worse condition now
than before rs the companies are start
ing their works with Enslish-speaking
workmen to the exclusion OF tho for.
eign element. All the works in the
southern end Of tho region are either
running or preparing to start up be.
tween this and Monday, while those in
the northern end are in full operation.
The Frick officials at Scottdale report
everything quiet at all their plants, and
they do not fear any moro trouble.
Similar reports come from Raincy's
general office Mt Vanderbilt. None OF
Frick plants are in operation owing to
the death of Chief Engineer Paddock,
but they will DO fired up tomorrow or
Monday. Many OF their plants were
charged with coke when Paddock was
killed, and this coke is being drawn as
soon as it Is burned. No miners are
working at any of their plants. OF the
Rainey works Mt. Braddock and Elm
Grove arc idle. Although tho opera
tors SAY the strike is ended they arc
preparing for possible outbreaks at any
time.
A STARTLING DISCOVERY.
1t has just been discovered that tho
strikers have stolen 1000 pounds OF
dynamite from the new reservoir being
constructed on the mountain east OF
Dunbar and great destruction OF prop
erty is expected. The dynamite was
stolen while the workman on the rescr-
voir were absent, tho robbers breaking
open tho storage house. Tho robbary
has caused great excitement, and many
believe preparations are being made for
n renewal Of hos,ilities. President
Davis, who is in Jail, said to-day he
would not withdraw his cali for con.
yention on Saturday and urges tho
board TO report at the meeting and ar
range ior O continuance OF the strike.
He, however, condemns the rioting and
says that it must be stopped. This
afternoon an ugly feeling is developing
and there arc indications that trouble
will break out anew after. il not before,

the miners district union, was captured

There was no alarming change in tho

commenced to move again in this sec

Portraits Gathered from tho Ancient
Tombs of Egypt.
A collection OF portraits, two thou
sand Years old. makes an interesting
exhibit, not only to art connoisseurs,
but to everybody curious enough to
know what manner of men and women
once inhabited this old earth. The
Theodor Graf collection of unique

Academy Of the Fine Arts, gives for
the first time an idea OF the work Of
the portrait painters Of the second and
third centuries B. c. These paintings

lcries" of old Egyptians. proud of their
ancestors, but were mummy faces"
1t was the ancient Greek custom to
represent the countenance of a dead
person ut the head of mummy or cof-
fin, somewhat like the Indians of Peru,
and in the Greels-Roman epoch. for the
plastic head with conventional features
was submitted real portrait of the
dead.
One entire "face mu mmy" is here
shown in this exhibit, brought, like
the other faces" from the cave ceme-
terry of Rubayat, in central Egypt.
Ages ago thieves ransacked this cele-
brated metropolis, throwing away these
painted pannels upon desert sands.
The ninety-six exhibited in Crafts col
lection are thin pannels Of wood, many
now cracked and Scared, bearing the
faces of few Egyptians, several
Syrians or Phenicians, and many
mixed features of that Greek epoch.
They mostly belonged to the higher
classes, Us is evident in the abundant
jewels of the women, the golden laurel
wreaths of the men, the ribbons, Pam
peiian-like shoulder stripes and Isis
buttons, and even the "Locl of Youth, "
the ancient badge OF the sons of the
Pharaohs. The colors have mellowed
like those of old masterpieces, and
Rembrandt himself would not be
ashamed of the strength shown in the
best of them. Some of the pictures of
the oval-faced Egyptians and the dark,
Acknowledged Jewesses are modern
enough in spirit and treatment to put
upstairs with the sixty-third annual
exhibit of the academy. The rich col
oring and delicate tints awakened even
Meissoniers admiration.
The collection reveals, Also in the
most interesting manner, all the
technical expedients employed by the
ancients. They devised the art of
painting with variously-colored wax
and the process of burning it in. 1t
has thus gained the name of ''encaus-
tic painting" The wax was laid on by
means of "a lancet.shaped cestrum, or
spatula. A brush was used sometimes,
as we'll as this craving tool, and there
are exhibited several remarkable ex-
amples of distemper. - Philadelphia

girl held her mother prisoner the en-

the child was little more accustomed

so tightly to her mothers dress. The
mother took advantage of this, and
said: "If you let me go out for little

MODERN LlFE-SAvERs.
Types of Boats Now Used in the United
States Service.

States Service.
There are many kinds of lifeboats
and many other devices for effrcting
communication by lines between
wreck and the shore. The type of
boat in most general use in our service
is distinctively known as surfboat.
1t is made of white cedar upon a white
oak frame. 1t is from twenty-five to
twenty-seven feet in length, with it's
other dimensions proportionate. 1t is
propelled by six oars, and will carry,
besides the crew, from ten to fifteen
persons. The excellence of these boats
is shown by the record during the
eighteen years they have been used in
the hands of the 'life-saving crews
They have been launched in actual
service six thousand seven hundred
and thirty times, and have safely
landed from wrecked vessels six
thousand seven hundred and thirty
five persons. They have capsized but
fourteen times, six of these accidents
being attended with loss of life. OF
the boats crews, twenty-seven were
drowned, being one for every two hun
dred and forty lives saved.
A "self-rig hting" lifeboat is largely
used in the English service, and in our
own to a limited extent by way of ex-
pertinent This boat is constructed
with air-chambers at the bow and
stern and several hundred pounds of
iron in the keel. These cause the boat
to fright" itself when capsized by the
waves. 1t is Of necessity heavy and
cumbers some, and the record for actual
service is on the whole favorable
to the smaller and lighter surfboats
adopted by our own government. The
proportionatc loss of life from capsiz-
ing is considerably less with the surf
boats. The self-riehting boat is four
fold heavier than the other, weighing
about four thousand pounds. Boats

ing for self-bailing, by which water

HlNDoo BEAUTIES.
Fine-Looking Women Among the Middle
Class.


Class.
Many of the women of India, and
especially those of Kashmir, are very
beautiful. The worst of it is that not
only are the most beautiful ones seldom
seen, but even their portraits are diff
cult to obtain. Either they or their
husbands appear to look with rooted
fiistrust on the photographer, and even
when their photographs are taken they
rarely give permission for copies to be
sold. In typical Hindoo beauty the
skin Is just dark enough to give rich,
soft appearance to the complexion, the
features are regular the eyes mild and
black and shaded by long, sillsen lashes,
the hands and feet are small and ele-
gantly formed, the demeanor is modest,
the manner gentle, the voice low and
sweet. Such a combination of good
points may not often be met with, but
when it is who shall say what havoc is
wrought among the hearts of the be-
holders? There are fine looking wom-
en- occasionally among the middle-class
Hindoos, as we'll as among the upper
ten, and even among the low castles
the faces are sometimes very pleasing.
Many Hindoo woman. who has per-
haps little pretensions to beauty of
face, has nevertheless the step and
carriage of a princess; and If one is not
too fastidious about perfection of eyes
and months and noses. her figure, as
she walks down the street with her
load on her head, is truly beautiful
object. Jewelry is often worn to ex-
cess in India, asamong other orientals,
and the nose ring is sometimes SO large
thatit has to be fastened buck of the ear
by u delicate chain to keep it from in
terfering with the mouth.-Pittsburgh

ODD THINGS Asour CENTS.


Among Othcr Thing. Ther Are Quite F.S.
tensively Counterfeitcd.
From time to time one sees references
In the daily papers, referring to the
difficulty experienced by the ferry com-
panies car lines, etc, in disposing Of
enormous Accommodations of ordinary
copper cents. The reader is very apt
TO remember this, particularly IL in ex-
change for q dollar bill he is returned
ninety-fve one-cent pieces by con-
ductor.
AS matter OF fact, there is no excuse
for the item, much less for car con-
ductor or change taker in unloading
his weight of copper upon the always
more or less abused passenger. The
United States sub-treusury, at Wall
and Nassau streets, makes, and has
made 1t a practice for years, of ex-
changing minor coin for United States
money of large denomination, and it
has many regular customers who are SO
served.
There are a number Of curious things
about cents as they come to the sub
treasury. In the first place, they are
quite extensively counterfeited. This
may seem strange, as the profit in a
counterfeit cent is necessarily small.
1t is true. however, nevertheless. and
is supposed to be the work of Italians,
who, more largely than any other ma
tionality, seem TO favor the imitation
of our minor and subsidiary coin.
The Brooklyn and New Jersey ferry
companies, the elevated railroads OF
both New York and Brooklyn and the
various slot machine companies are
regular customers for the exchange of
cents for other money at the sub-treas-
urv. At times they turn in enormous
quantities, the slot companies alone
ranging between one hundred and
twenty-five dollars and seven hundred
dollars day.
As might be expected, all sorts of
oddities in the way of coin come in

times, metal discs and foreign copper,
Austrian money predoninnting. AS the
copper cent is simply q token, no mat
ter what its condition is, it is redeemed
at par if it can in any way be identi-
fed as United States money.
The popularity of the slot machines
a year or so ago brought about a
curious condition of affairs in the
country. This was nothing short of a
''cent famine" The headquarters OF
the company is in New York. and all
the agents sent their cents here for
redemption, which drained the coun.

minor coin vaults of the sub-treasury

Annexation Treaty.

WASHINGTON, June Naturally
the advocates of the Provisional
Government in the Senate, and
especially the Senators from Maine,
are delighted with the result of the
Turpie Resolution, particularly as
the Senate, by its vote, practically
declared in favor of considering
some project of annexation.
1t is believed that the Provisional
Government will be encouraged by
its friends here to propose treaty OF
annexation with this Government
later, on the assurance that if the
President sends it to the Senate it
will have a two thirds majority
there.
