FLYING JIB A FLYER.
Hitched to a Running Mate He PAGES
a Mile in l 80 Ia.

Chilliclothe, o., Sept 3O.-The name of
Flying Jib is on the tongue of every horse
man here tonight on account of the won
derful mile paced by this celebrated geld
ing at the kite track to-day Flying Jib,
hitched to a running mate, paced a mile
in the phenomenal time of 59l5, lower
ing the record of 2:0l$ made by West
mont in Chicago in 1884 at this style of
racing by Pa seconds. The performance
does not constitute a record, as this meth
cd of pacemaking is not recognized as
legal and has no bearing on Robert j. S
vPEd record of 2:0ll5.
At / o'clock Jib was brought on the
track, and in the presence of 1000 people
was sent a warming up heat in 2:l5. In
a few minutes he again came on the
track, driven by Andy Mcdowell, and
after scoring once, his driver nodded for
the word go" Up the track the fleet
footed animal went without a skip,
while the spectators held their breath in
amazement. He came on the home stretch
faster and faster every step. When the
time of :59i5 was announced the specta-
tors could scarcely believe it, and still
more dumbfOunded were they when the
last half of the mile was announced as
being made in 5Sl6 seconds.
This demonstrates very clearly that the
Chillicothe track is undoubtedly the fast
est in the country, it being as smooth as
table. All the visiting hOrsemen here,
and the city is full of them, say If the
weather is favorable this week more rec
ords will be smashed at this meeting than
at any meeting held this year.

Fal River, Mass, Sept 30 Since tho

published in the local papers there b,s

Iule operatives. The overwhelming senti-

Vi the conference between the
Splnners and manufacturers. have com-
pINeu TO make much hard feeling and
nave led to many bitter eXpressions on
tue part OF the men who are in close CON
tdcJ with the working people. To-day
many people have the idea that it is the
tnyeu1loh OF the manufacturers to fight
yhe splnners' union, and more particu-
larIy 10 Tight Robert Howard. their suc-
CesSIul leader. At the conference
Oe.Ween the representatives of the
spiuuers and manufacturers it was
houceaole that Secretary RouusviIe
was not so courteous as usual towarde
Gne popular secretary of the spinners
1nls seemed so striking that it was after
WARDS remarked upon by the labor rep
fesentatlYes who were present, Secretary
howard among the rest At the meeting
OF the WeaYers Secretary Howard was
denounced because he sought a hearing
Tor the splnners before consulting with
Ihe Amalgamated Association.
THREATENED POLITICALLY.
So bitter was this feeling that one
weaver called upon those assembled to re-
mem Der Secretary Howard S action when
his name should be brought forward for
political honor. This sentiment was not
only allowed by the presiding officer. but
IL was met by the general body with
many demonstrations of approval 1t is
rumored that certain mill Oyerseers are
dong much to foster this feeling against
Secretary Howard, and it is believed thew
are simply rejecting the opinions
OF the manufacturers employing them
Secretary Howard regards this
feeling as of very little consequence so
lar as he Is concerned personally. He
states that he is hired bv the mule spin
ners union to do the best he can for it's
interests. If the weavers' union, or the
Amalmagated association cannot obtain
hearings before the manufacturers he
believes 1t results simply from lack of
firm organization among the people sup
posed to be fully represented.
HOWARD STILL STRONG.
That Secretary Howard still retains
much of his old time strength here.
ueSplIe Uhe tdlk now so prevalent against
him, IS shown by the warm words spoken
of his course by business men and prop
erty owners who are feeling the discom-
forts arising from tue prolonged Idleness
of 10000 people.
An attempt was made last evening to
induce the Globe yarn mule spinners to
return TO work. Compromise prices were
offered some weeks ago. A meeting of
the Globe yarn men will be held during
the week, probably tomorrow. These
attempts are being made by the over
seers of the mill, not by the union au,
thorities.

RESCUE OF THE MINERS.
The Escape of the Men at Simpson a
Most Miraculous One.

Scranton, Pa, Sept. 3O.-Rescued from
what was believed to be certain death on
Thursday, when portion of the work
ings of the northwest colliery at Simpson,
near Carbondale cayed in, William
Mitchell, George Arney, John flaming
and Andrew KlRpkOwski are today the
objects OF demonstrative rejoicing in the
village
When the cavern occurred their death
was regarded as certain, but on Thurs
day Light the rescuers heard responses to
their tapping and it was believed there
was one man u escape the fall. Yester-
day when it became 3 eertrinty that all
four were alive, the agony Of Thursday
was turned into almost uncomfortable re-
JolGlng. The rescuers pushed their work
more vigorously than ever and they
pierced the black wall that had made the
prison almost five hours earlier than ex-
pected.
RESTORED TO THEIR FRIENDS.
The imprisoned men were faint from
lack Of food and drink, but these in stlm-
ulating quantities were supplied them,
and they were shortly after midnight
TINS morning restored to their friends,
hundreds of whom stood massed at the
m1ne's mouth to receive them. They
were taken TO their homes in wagons with
demonstrations of Joy greeting them along
the way.
Their escape from death is regarded al
most miracle, considering the extent of
the cave-in, and the fact chat they were
at work right beneath it. They had
heard the warning of the cracking roof
and fled TO a place of safety before the
faIl reached where they were.
