more columns Of THE News have been

new dress OF type is evidenced in the finer
appearance OF the newspaper, which to-

There is a strike at the Franklin
Foundry. Yesterday 20 moulders left
work. The cause of their so doing is
said to be the refusal of the company to
restore wages to what they were previous
to the recent depression. One of the
strikers told NEWS representative this
morning that the men had quit work
because the company refused to grant an
increase of 10 per cent. The mans story
of the events that led up TO the quitting
of work by himself and his fellow em-
ployes is that they were promised the
increase asked the first of the present
month"; but when petition was drawn
up signed by all the moulders in the shop
the man who presented II to the foreman
was discharged. Then all came out.
The men were making ~. 70 day and
wanted s2.50. The men who are on strike,
or at least the greater number of them,
have not resided in this city great while.
The officials OF the company refuse to
say anything about the trouble what
soever

A SUPPLEMENTARY SWIM.
The Miraculous Escape o9 Two Negroes
 From a Horrible Death.


 From 8 Horrible Death.
 Word comes from near Tallahassee of Q miraculous escape of two negro fisher men from horrible death h that sec tion there is Q creek that disappears in the ground, then flows under q high mound, and at a distance of over half @ mile reappears with added force and volume This is great fishing place, and scores of negroes are found fishing at the upper end of the tunnel at any time.
 Last week while q party of 12 men were there two of them, Bill Brooks and Josh Gill, fell into the water and were almost instantly whirled into the underground creek by the swift current. Their mortified companions tried to res cue them. but in vain, and they were swept away. The party hastily rushed to the lower end of the land where the creek reappears and waited to recover the bodies. Shortly both negroes shot through. feebly struggling in the swift current, showing slight signs of life. Several men plunged in and brought them to shore, and they were worked over for an hour before they were out of danger.
 This Is the first time that such an es- cape has been made. The negroes regard it as special act of Providence, and re- vival meetings have been started by preachers. Philadelphia Times
