Victim of Strikers,

Mt. PLEASANT, Pa, Aug. 24.-This
morning Peter Firmstone, an English
miner, was attacked by crowd of strik-
ing Slavs while on his way to work :,
they knocking him down with a club
and repeatedly kicking him. his assail.
who heard his cry for help, quickly
aroused several of the nelghbors and
went to the rescue. The Slavs escaped,
but before leaving their victim one of
them cut the unconscious Englishmau
across the head and down through the
nose. Another striker almost severed
the left ear, barely missing the jugular
vein. The terrible kicks Firmstone re.
ceived over the heart will probably
cause his death.

ATLANTA THE PLACE
FOR THE NEXT MEETING OF
WATER WORKS ASSOCIATION.
Election of Officers and the Clos
ing Business of the Four
teenth Session.

The closing session Of the fourteenth
Works association was held yesterday
morning and confined chiefly to the
transaction of business of the organiza-
ton. the passing of resolutions expressive
of thanks tor the hospitality extended
by the citizens of Minneapolis and in
dividuals who contributed in one way
and another towards making the session
of the association such success. Two
individuals at least were presented with
a substantial token of the associations
appreciation. This was c. M. Foote,
chairman of the local committee, who
was given an elegant silver fruit serv-
ice, and Inspector James Doyle, who
was given handsome umbrella.
An illustrated paper was read by D
W. Mead, of Rockford. ILL.,. in which
he described the geological formations
con Stitutiong the watershed at the up
per part of the Mississippi valley. j.
L. Farrissey, of Minneapolis, followed
with an explanation of the artesian
wells of the Mississippi valley, using as
basis the data given in MIR. Mead'S
paper. Secretary Milne read a paper
upon Evolution In Water Works Con-
struction and Maintenance.
The following officers for the ensuing
year were elected: President, William
Ryle. Patterson, n. j.; vice presidents,
F. A. w. Davis, indianapolis; G. Al.
Foote. Minneapolis; James H. Harlow,
Pittsburg; w. G. Richards. Atlanta; w.

AUGUST FOR HEALTH.
1t Must Be Whether You
Take a Vacation or Not.
Take Time Now to Strengthen
Nerves and Body.
See That Every Part of the Body Be-
comes Well Fed.

Eleven months for business, for
money-making. for absorbing work.
Take August for becoming strong and
we'll.
Get back to your proper weight; re.
lieve the tired nerves of their irritable
ity; fill the body with rudy, vigorous,
serviceable blood. You will work to
twice the purpose with clear head and
body undisturbed by aches and pains.
Give Paine's celery compound a fair
trial in August.
WEAKNESS and lack of strength IS a
matter of the nerves and brain. 1t is
the exhaustion OF the nerve centers that
produces the feeling of lasSitude and
depression.
Digestion and assimilation are the first
to become affected by diminished nerve
power, and as these functions are SO close
ly connected with every part of the body
the entire system shares in their dis
order. Men and women about middle
age take little exercise. theil blood
becomes slow and impure and all their
important organs sluggish, while con-
stantiy increasing load OF anxiety and
care keeps their nerves from being
properly nourished. Such persons will
find steady gain in health. in vigor
and good spirits from Paine's celery
compound taken steadily through the
month of August.
The reason for the high regard In
which Paine's celery compound is held
by physicians for building up the weak,
the sickly and the nervous, is because
all Its ingredients are known to medical
men to feed the nerves and to provide
pure and rich blood for all the weak
parts of the body. Every trace of nerv-
Gus exhaustion disappears wher the
nerves that govern the functions of the
body are thus abundantly supplied with
their appropriate food.
The disturbances of the nervous sys.
tenn, whether neuralgia. rheumatism,
debility, extreme nervousness or heart
trouble, are due to arrangements in
nutrition. Headache. a sense of weight
on top OF the head, feeling Of constric-
ton about the forehead; these are very
significant symptoms, and should be
needed. Better and more complete
nutrition is demanded for the nerves
and brain. Thin, pale faces, wasted
frames. unhealthy skin and low spirits
tell Enthusiastically of blood too thin and
poor to properly nourish the body.
Paine's celery compound brings an
increased. natural appetite, assists the
assimilation Of the fOod and Quiets aud
restores healthy nervous action.

THE SUMMER SCHOOL.
Largest Held in the Country and
Very Successful.


Five candidates for state teachers
certificates were examined yesterday,
the last day of the summer school, and
in the evening pleasant musical enter
tainment was given.
Supt. Pendergast says that the re-
markable success of the school, which
was by far the largest ever held in the
country, is attracting attention in East
ern educational circles. aud that as a re-
suit the state Is receiving considerable
advertising. He reported that there
were siXty-three Institutes and schools
held in the state during the season, with
total attendance of 7,l55, an increase
Of 1858 over that of last year. The
legislature granted $4,000 at its last
session for the support of these schools,
and a much larger appropriation will
undoubtedly be made at next session.
