ripe"
The sword has been poetized, and the
world has celebrated tho sword Of Bolivar,
tho sword Of Cortes and tho sword Of La
fayotte. The pen has been properly oulo-
eizod, and tho world has celebrated the
pen Of Addison, the pen of Southey and
the pen of Irving Tho painters pencil
has been honorod, and the world has cele-
brated the pencil of AiurlllO, the pencil Of
Rubens and tho pencil Of Bierstadt. The
soulptor's chisel has come in for high
encomium, and the world has celebrated
Chautrev's chisel and Crawford S chisel
and Greonough' S ohisol. But there is one
instrument about which l sing the first
canto that was ever sung-tho SICKLE tho
sickle of the Bible, the sickle that has
reaped the harvest Of many centuries.
Sharp and bent into samicirclo and gilt

your arm, has furnished the bread for
thousands of years. It's success has pro
dncod the wealth of nations. 1t has had

TWO STRIKES IMMINENT.
NEW YORK IRON WORKERS PREPAR-
ING TO WALK OUT.
NIX. & T. Men Will Also Walk Out if
Engineer Lamas is Not Re-instated
in Five Days,

NEW YORK, May l6.-It is said
another strike will be inaugurated
in few days affecting all the
structural iron workers and bridge
men in this CITY and Brooklyn.
There have. been two strikes
against the Iron league, which is
composed OF employers, in the last
two years and in neither case were
the strikes successful. The union
has declared that the Iron league
has blacklisted a number of men
who were active in the strike last
winter and, also, il the league does
not recognize the union and agree
to adopt uniform scale OF wages,
new strike will be ordered. 1t is
understood If the strike Is begun
the union will take charge Of
them.
The headquarters Of the national
body are in Chicago. A per capital
tax has been levied on all the
members throughout the country
to raise funds to conduct the strike.
The leaders Of the local union in
this city say that the strikers did
not get all demands in the previous
strikes because they had not suf-
ficient funds to enable them to
hold out long enough. The strik-
ers did not have the support OF the
National union before. Thomas
J. Lehan, OF the walking delegates,
said last night that all builders,
architects, contractors and owners
of new buildings would be imme-
diately informed of the mems in
tentions and would be asked to
aid them in obtaining recognition
for the union by the Iron league.
The Iron league is composed OF
all the big firms including j. b.
& j. n. Cornell, Aiken Bros. and
Jackson Architectural Works, that
have control OF the iron work done
on the large buildings erected in
this city, Brooklyn and the vicin-
ity. J. NJ. Cornell is president Of
the organization.
ST. LOUIS, May 16.-A special to
the Republic from Denison, Tex,
says: The most serious strike
ever known in the southwest is
threatening. The grievance COM
mittee OF the Brotherhood Of Loco
motive Engineers, which has been
to st. Louis to lay the case of Engi-
neer William Lamas before the M.
K. & T. officials, has returned. Az
ter a conference the company re-
fused to re-instate Lamas and the
grievance committee entered into
federation with the organization
OF railway men, six in number, and
the whole system has been orga-
nized and federated.
| A committeeman said today:
''you can state officially that un-
less Engineer Lamas is re-instated
in five days there will not be a
wheel turning on the NJ. X. q 7.
We are organized for the fight and
every organization of railroad
trainmen is backing US, that every
wheel shall stop in five days unless
Mr.. Lamas is put back to work"
The ultimatum OF the man has
been sent to the Katy neadqusr-
tiers.
