Large Number of Railroad 3Ien Are
Leaving the Country.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Aug. 21.-As a re-
suit of their connection with the re-
cent great strike q large number of
railroad men in this city are
making arrangements to leave
this country, claiming they have
been placed on the blacklist of all the
railroads and can secure no places, no
matter whether there are vacancies
or not About forty of these have
made preliminary arrangements to
go to the Cape of Good Hope and JO-
hannessburg, South Africa, and others
are talking quite seriously of going
to Brazil. Hard times here, work else
where and cheap transportation
largely influenced them, although
they claim that the principal
cause is that they are marked men
and have no chance whatever
of employment in this country. The
men are given notice by each road for
which they worked stating they have
so worked, but in notices now given
in many of them occurs the phrase,
LEFT the service on account of the
strike of June 80, 1894" The men
have no other form of recommen da-
ton, and say that this is simply q
warning to other companies not to en-
ploy them.
State Boiler Inspector Clark, is Civ
ing the men, for their use in foreiVn
countries, a note stating their protect
ency as engineers and fremen, and
with each a letter from Governor Nell
son confirming their citizenship as
Americans. Many of the engineers
have secured certificates from Inspec-
tor Clark. and will run threshing ma

State Convention to Be Held An
Illinois to Discuss Grievances.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Aug. 22.-The
coal trade in Illinois is in such an
unsettled condition and miners are
working under such varying prices
and conditions that the industry is
improbable to both owners and
miners. In the hope that ''order may
be brought out of chaos as Presi-
dent Crawford puts it, state conven-
ton has been called to adjust the
scale of mining rates throughout the
mining districts, to establish and
maintain a sub-district organization
throughout the various fields of the
state and to propagate a state
organization.
Crawford says that in period of
twenty years. during which time he
has been connected with the business,
he has never known the business to
be so unss t-sfactory as at present.
There is no uniformity in prices, and
the demand for the products of the
mines is so light that if all the mines
in the state were run to their full ca
pacity one and one-half days per week
the result would be sufficient for the
market.

WHEN THE HEARTS INIrs PRIME

rne Suns on his throne, and the Wind on

Like wandering minstrel DER meadow and

The day and the season are both in their
prime,
And youths at It's sweetest and tenderest
time.
The buds are In bloom and the birds sing
their best.
The trees are in Leaf and the orchard is

With clustering fruits for the years in its

And youths at its ripest and tenderest time.
Too soon shall the clouds cover sunshiny
The voice OF the minstrel be hushed to a
sigh;
Too soon shall the day and the season de-
cline,
And clustering fruit shall be melted TO wine.
The petals shall fall and the songsters de-

The foliage fade like the youth OF the heart !;
FOR swift runs the current or pitiless time,
And always the swiftest when life's In its
prime.
The birds and the blossoms and fruit shall
appear,
With summers return and the turn OF the
year,
The breezss shall be sweet and the sun be as
fair;
Alas but the prime Of my youth is not there.
Each month Of the year has its prime, but in

There's only the prime in the season OF

Though hearts love again, and shall love for

There's only one love when the hearts In its
