After Illegal Fishermen.

- CLEVELAND, Aug. 16.-Stats Game and
Fish Warden Buntaine, OF Dayton,
swooped down on the Lake Eric fishermen
again yesterday. Eighty nets wero seized,
but the owners were on the spot, and a
struggle ensued, which resulted in tho re-
covory of number Of nets. The others
were copflscated by the warden. This
seizure, following upon the heels of the
arrest of numbe of the fishermen earlier
in the day, caused much excitement, and
there is promise of a bitter legal struggle
before matters are adjusted.

TO suppress the Santa Crur indians.

MERIDA, Yuoatan, Aug. l6.-Thore Is
great enthusiasm here over the intention
of President Diaz, as announced from the
City of Mexico, to occupy Baclar with q
strong force of troops. The Santa Cruz
Indians are filled with dismay, because
they now realize that their depredations
are to be severely punished. Many of those
Indians are fleeing to Belize to accept
British hospitality among the people who
for many years have been furnishing them
arms and ammunition. 1t is not believed
that the leaders of the Indians can bring
over 800 into the field against the Mex,
lean troops.

CHARLESTON, w Va, Aug 18.-All the
miners of Loup Creek, with the exception
of those at Glen Jean, struck yesterday.
About 800 are out. Those employed at Glon
Jean, about 900, refuse to quit, and al
most an equal number at McDonalds say
they will go in again unless the Glen Jean
men quit 1t is probable that the matter
will be settled. New river operators have
notified their men they must submit to q
reduction of from forty to thirty cents for
mining IL the Loup Creek strike is un-
successful. Loup Creek operators pay
higher wages than those of New River,
but the coal of tho former can be mined
much cheaper and has been supplanting
the latter in the market.

Upon examination Of the Indians

The fame OF these incidents spread
all over Mexico, and through the aid
of devout Jesuits the worship af-
forded the pagan "Mother of the

of the Christ mother, the affections
Of the Indians being thus easily trans
ferred from the divinity to another
without much changing of the scenes
or OF the necessary forms and rites.
Within the tabernacle, and in
frame OF gold aud silver, inclosed
with plate glass the miraculous
image is preserved. The material
upon which the picture is wrought is
OF coarse textile material, the figure
itself being somewhat conventional
in type, good in point of artistic
effect, and though $50 years old it
still retains it's original freshness and
strength OF outline. An examination
of the garment plainly reveals it's
material, but no scientific test to
which the picture itself has been sub
mitted has yet revealed any trace of
the medium by which the picture
was transferred to the cloak of the
Indian. It is not distemper, nor
water color, nor oil, and this strange
contrast between the material used
and which has baffied the ablest
artists and all known or ordinary
methods of painting, has furnished,
even to unbelieyers and practical
men, a strong and irrefutable proof
of the supernatural character of the
miraculous incident from which has
sprung national divinity and the
ceremonial that are now the en-
bodiment Of Mexican independence
and a resistance of Spanish rule.
The church takes its name from
Nuesta Senior de Guadaluph, a name
famous in the church annals of
Spain, and who endowed it in 1533.
1t was specially built for the hous-
ing of the miraculous image. In
1873 the Church of the Virgin on
Guadalupe was rebuilt and enlarged.

little variation performed in the

The tradition runs that one day an
Indian, in going up the side of hill
to consult the doctors of Tonantzin
about sick uncle, saw a phenomenal
atmospheric disturbance and heard
the voices of choir of angels sing
ing. While gazing in wonder and
amazement, beautiful lady was
evolved out of the clouds, who told
him she was the Mother of God, and
who commanded the Indian to go
and see the Bishop of Mexico and
advise him to build her church upon
