What the Strike Cost.

P1TTsBURe, June 1S.-A well informed
authority in the coal business estimates
that the coal strike in this district has
cost the miners in wages 81, 500, 900,
taking it for granted that the normal
output of the region had Leen main
tanned. III proportion to the general
output this district mined about one
sixth of the coal dug in the area affected
by the strike. With a reasonable pro-
portion between the prices paid in this
and other districts, the loss in wages
alone, the same authority says, would
be over SO. 600, 900.

The feathered tribes have many Pc
culiar ways and fancies about the de-
tails of their toilets Some birds use
water only, some water and dust, while
others prefer dust and no water. Birds
are often very particular about the
water and dust for their baths Wild
ducks, though feeding by salt water,
prefer to battle in fresh water pools,
and will fly long distances inland to
preen and dress their feathers in the
early morning. Sparrows battle often,
both in water and dust, and are not

teously forward, raising his hat in a
black-gloved hand. He was of medium

his eyes large, deep and full of light.
He spoke mainly in English, but with
