Quito an interesting question has arisen
between the boss bakers. the bakers be-
longing to the local assembly and the
drivers Of the bakers wagons, in reference
as to how matters can be arranged SO that
the two latter organisations can take part
in tine Labor day parade and the public
not be inconvenienced.
A conference will be held today between
representatives, Of the three bodies, in
order to agree upon a plan which can be
carried out without friction. The journey
men bakers have already determined that
they will not work at all on Labor day,
and If this determination is adhered to
there is big obstacle in the way of a
compromise.
1t has been suggested that the older en-
ployes in the bakeries set the sponge at
say O'Clock on the night before Labor day,
and have the bakers begin work at mid
night. By that arrangement the drivers
can deliver all the bread by or $50 a M,
and while 1t would be little late the bread
would still be fresh. The drivers are
especially anxious to do nothing to incon-
venience their customers. but they are also
DESTROYS, and intend. to take part IN the
parade.

The Russian Volunteer Fleet.

According 10 thu London Daily News the
Russian volunteer fleet Is rapidly develop

larry flotilla to the imperial navy. All the
volunteer steamers are SO constructed and
fitted as to be readily converted into fairly
well armed and fast cruisers. The latest
addition to the fleet is Vladimir. vessel
of 1880 tons displacement and nineteen
knots speed, which reached st. Petersburg
last week from Denny Brothers yard at
Dumbarton. There are now three other
steamers OF similar displacement, carrying
capacity 100000 poods), and speed under
construction In British dock yards, and a
fourth order has just been placed in Eng
land for a st Gamer capable of running
twenty knots. The first three vessels men
toned are to be delivered early in the
spring, and the last, which will be called
the Kherson, is to be delivered about the
end of next year. Last year the volunteer
fleet made twelve trips to the far east; this
year sixteen journeys are being made, next
season twenty one voyages will be accom-
plished and in 1897 it is expected that thir-
ty-six outward and homeward passages
will be made by the increased f,otilla At
present. and for some years past, the vol

INDIAN TERRITORY MINES
Report Of the Inspector for the Last Fiscal
Year.
The Law Generally Complied With as
to NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
and Output.

The report Of L. W. Bryan, United States
mine inspector for the Indian territory, for
the fiscal year ended June 80. 1895, has
been received at the Interior Department.
Mr.. Bryan says that he has found gen.
eral disposition on the part Of the mine
owners TO comply with the law. Sugges-
tons as to improvements not specifically
required by law havc been, as a rule. adopt
ed. The ventilation in nearly all the
mines has been increased, and the air
courses have all been well-timbered and
cleaned. Metallic speaking tubes through
the mines have been everywhere adopted,
but in the larger ones they have been
found useless for long distances. Safety
catches and covers have been provided for
all cages and are periodically inspected.
The rule prohibiting the employment of
children under twelve years Of age has
been rigidly enforced. Strict attention has
been given to the law providing that only
experienced competent and sober men
shall be placed in charge Of machinery,
and to such good effect that I'll ere has been
but one accident from machinery during
the past year, that one being from entire
ly accidental causes.
Owing to the volatile character of the
bituminous coal III the territory, shot
firers have now been employed who do not
enter the mine or fire any shots until all
the miners have left 1t. In all fire-damp
mines careful men are appointed, who in
spect each working face before the men
enter 1t.
The law does not state how soon after the
opening up Of new mine all the provis-
ions Of the law must be complied with
1t is apparent that in one commenced on
a small scale. and with a small capital
much work must be done before the venti-
lating and other shafts are needed. In the
case OF mines started up after having been
idle for long time. much time Is required
to inaugurate all the details required. In
these cases. the report says, some discre-
ton has been observed. there being gener-
as soon possible.
The Indian territory mines employ $500
men. The output for the year ending June
80, 1895. was DOB. 40 tons. The total num-
Der of accidents was forty-six. six of which
were fatal Most OF the others were slight

They fought for twenty minutes, when

Inc SHitaSO 4TlDune.
A fact remarkable to our civilized women
is the one that Alaska squaws make their
ages public. They wear a piece of wood
OF bone in the lower lip, the size of the CT
nament indicating the age of. the owner.
When girl marries her lower lip is pierre
ed and peg Of wood or a piece of bone
the size of pea is inserted. AS she grows
older this is increased in size. until it is
almost as wide as her chin and one-fourth
Of an inch high. The result is naturally
most Ursightly. There is on interesting
family at Fort Wrangel, which illustrates
perfectly this peculiar custom. 1t includes
four generations. A young girl may be
seen sitting at one side of the one-:oomed
square frame house, while her mother.
grandmother and great-grandmother are
squatted on the earthern floor near the
door. Offering mats and baskets to the

There IS no disfiguring ornament on the
girls chin, but there is a big one on the

The Excise Board Making 1t interest
ing for Saloon Men.
Washington has developed into a model
city, as far as tho liquor business is con-
cerned. and other large cities would do well
to emulate it," said a prominent District
official today.
AS matter of fact. the excise board Is
dealing out stern justice to the liquor men,
and those who violate the law or regula-
tons will find themselves confronted when
the 1st of November rolls around with
some knotty questions to answer before
they get their licenses. The inspector is
out every night and reports promptly to
the board any dereliction on the part of
liquor men.
The excise board meets but cnce a month
these days. The second Wednesday OF
each month Is set aside to hear LIQUOR
questions. When the new license year
rolls around more meetings will lie held.
The board has determined not to issue any
new licenses. and this -ule is being strictly
adhered to.
