SANDY HOOK STRIKE OVER.

Sandy Hook, March 27-The en-
ployes of the New York Betting and
Packing company who are out on strike,
held meeting, this morning, with the
committee which conferred with Su-
perintendent of Factories Blanchard.
The conference resulted in an agree
ment satisfactory to both sides. The
strikers will return to work, to-mor-
row morning. The result is a victory
for the workmen, whose wages will be
increased from ten to twenty-five cents
per day. The company also agreed to
pay all boys who are doing mems work
$1.50 per day. They also conceded the
demand of the men that certain OBJ
noxious rules, which have been in force
for several years. be done away with,
One of these rules provided that an
employee who was late in the morning
lost three hours time. Another was
that an employee who remained away
from his work a day without notice
in advance, lost a weeks pay. Both
ides expressed themselves satisfied wit

Not the Same.

A neat example of the retort admon-
tive was recently made by a young
Colorado mining engineer whom we
will call Morton, principally because
that is not at all like his name. Seated
i'm a chair in Denver barber shop, I'M
dergoing shave at the hands of a fa-
vorite barber who although an excel
lent craftsman sometimes committed
the mistake of becoming too familiar in
conversation. the talk turned on the
case of man who being on trial for
murder, had been recognized by visitors
to the COURTROOM a a young theological
student from Middle State, where he
had been the possessor OF a spotless rep
utation aud totally different name.
The conversation thereupon drifted to
the subject of changed Identities.
Morton's barber rubbed the razor on
the strop rellcciively, and said: Yes,
its surprising how many men change
their names after they get out West.
By-thc-way. Morton, what was your
name back East?'

of average well-read men that one finds

there is widespread education of the

At any rate, England carries very
heavy proporlionate rate OF the world :

This NAV seem like a bold assertion 20

ally in use for its treatment as nasty cod

Of malt, whiskey different preparations of
hypophosphites and such like bdllidiizcS.
Although by many believed 10 be incura-

living witnesses to the fact that iii all its
earlier stages, consumption Is a durable
disease. Not every case, but large per-
ceHLdge Of cases, and we believe, IHiLY o8

has progressed so far as 10 induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering

ing tuberCular natter great loss OF flesh
and extreme emaciatiOn and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by " Golden Med
ical Discovery " were genuine cases Of thr
dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for 1t. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly preiudiccd and advised against
a trial Of Golden Medical Discovery, I"
but who have been forced TO confess that
il surpasses, IN curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy emulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed 20 bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
a short time. Extract Of malt, whiskey

Washington. April There is good
authority for the statement that the

clslon I'm the income tax case until after

lore the first Monday in May. That

postpone the transmission Of their re-
turns. Returns under tie law must be
made on or before the 18th of April. at
which date the tax becomes payable.
and the taxpayers are given until the
FIRST of June TO make payment. So long
as the court renders no decision on the
case the law stands There are many
suggestions as 10 the cause OF the delay

eral one being that the court will de-
termine that the law is constitutional or

necessarily uphold the law and cause 1t

by MT Joseph 1T. Denck both in his great creation of Joseph von Hartzmann, the marvellous one-arm pianist. and in pro- pria persona. assisted by MT. Monte Pick ems, the fayorite southern violinist, and Mrs. Mayline Corbett, who gracefully appeared as accompanist on the occasion.
 The playing of MT. Denck as Hart2- mann was truly marvellous. It is hardly credible that one hand can accomplish what is done with Hartzmann's left hand. One has to hear and see this in order to believe it possible. With closed eyes almost anyone would suppose that two hands were being used. The first part of the programme last night con sisted of seven numbers, which were all for the left hand alone.
 Between the first and second parts MT. Monte Piclkens played De Beriot's Third Air" in a highly finished and artistic manner, and was vociferously eneored, to which he responded with an original arrangement of "The Mocking Bird. which brought down the house.
 MT. Denck played the second part of the programme as Denck, the virtuoso, with two hands, and fully sustained his reputation as one of the leading pianists of the day
