A VERY UNIQUE DEMAND.
Letter to the President from n Prospective
Father of Twins.

Fathcr OF lWiub.
WASHINGTON, May es. --Ever since some
wng put forth story that the president had
given present of money to the parents OF
twins or trlplets, tho White House mail
has been filled with letters of application
on TINT score, and it is estimated that at
least $1,000 day might be dlsbursed thus
at the rate of $500 to each applicant. A
sample Of the kind Of letters that come in
the mail to the president is the following
sent by man from Texas, who addresses
the president as "Mr. President Glove

P1TTsBuRG, May 2S.--Thcre is a general
resumption of work in the mines of this
district, the strike having been declared
lost by the United Mine Workers officials
The strikers are trying to get their foSmer
placas back again and most of them have
succeeded. A majority Of the river mines
%sA@ closed down, owing to low water,
and there are plenty of minors for all the
work. This may lead the operators to take
advantage of their victory to dictate terms
to the mon. 1t is thought they will not
offer less than sixty cents per ton butthey
may insist en- iron clad contracts and hold
back 10 per cent, to insure fulallment
