..Hnt Time In the Old Town.

"There'sa hot time ln-the old town
of Martinsburg. Recently the coun-
Gil determined to have the corporation
ordinances reprinted, making a book
of some 200 pages. A committee was
appointed to let the contract, and bids
were called for from the printing Off
ces of that city. -Four bids were re-
ceived. The Herald was the lowest
bidder, with the Statesman one cent
higher, while the Democrat was the
highest of all. It's bid was ia cents
a page more than the lowest, making
difference of $35 on the job. The
committee, in spite of the fact that
they had solicited bids from the other
Offices, promptly gave the work to the
Democrat, for personal reasons which,
according to the Statesman, were in
spired by the mayor, who doesn't like
Editor Boyer. The newspapers that
have been so shabbily treated are
making things warm for the committee
and Mayor Henshaw, and the pub
Usher of the Herald threatens to sue
the corporation for damages. The
whole affair seems to have been an
outrageous and corrupt affair in which
the taxpayers are fatty robbed. The
Democrat Office, by the way-a bum
establishment with bum proprietor
is said to be unable to do the work
and will have to send it away, thus
taking the work from the town.

Unfermented grape Wine.

A friend sends us the following re-
cipe for making unfermented grape
wine:
Pick the grapes from the stems, put
into a porcelain kettle, add little
water, cook thoroughly till stones and
pulp separate, press and strain through
a thick cloth, return to the kettle, and
for every ten pounds of grapes add
three pounds Of sugar; simmer short
time, seal up hot. This makes one
gallon of wine. 1t is improved by
adding one-third water or crushed
ice before drinking.

New Color for Postage Stamps.

The Secretary of the Treasury and
the Postmaster-General, after consul
tation with the President, have de-
cided to change the color Of the cur
rent two-cent postage stamp from car
mine to green of the shade now used
on government notes. The ten-cent
postage stamp, which is now printed in
green, will be changed to some other
color, possibly carmine. 1t is thought
that the green is more desirable color
than carmine, besides saving the gov
eminent about $4,000 in the differ
ence in cost between the two inks.

They Hear . Bugle and Break Away From,

At long and infrequent intervals a car
drawn by two horses orawls ulong Broad
way, New York, in tho northern part of
the annexed district. 1t Is run by tho Un-
ion Railroad company simply to hold tho
franchise for road from Kingsbridge to

Until recently the history Of the two
old horses used there was secret. They
were hauling the Cur drearily along past
Van Cortandt park, where the troopers
of Squadron A were cavorting through
spirited drill.
Suddenly the blast Of a bugle was heard
and the aged car horses prioked up their
ears. Then came the buglcr's call to
"Chargo!" In an instant the horses
plunged toward the crowd, pulling the old
chr of the tracks and Dennis Murphy, the
driver, over the dashboard. Tho traces
broke and the tenn galloped up Gunhill
road and dashed upon the parade ground
right in tho midst Of the troopers Of
Squadron A.
The troops didn't know whether they
were being charged by tho enemy or not.
So they broke ranks and fled until Dennis
Murphy came rushing up. Then tho troop
ers reformed and swept down upon the car
horses and made them prisoners, and the
trip to tho city line was resumed.

TROUBLE MAY RESULT.

Two Thousand Strikers Preparing tn
March ON the Allison Mine.
P1rTsBURG, July 2l.-The attention
of the miners of the Pittsburg district
is now riveted on the Allison, Boone
and Enterprise mines near Canonsburg.
The strikers fear that if the Boone and
Allison mines continue in operation it
will induce the Enterprise men to go
back to work. The programme OF the
strikers is to make another march on
the Allison mine. Tho leaders said
during the afternoon that more than
1900 diggers would be massed in the
Panhandle district and another march
made on the mines. II the march is
made the time will be kept a secret.
Just at this stage Of the strike sensa-
tional developments are expected. The
men are beginning to feel the pangs OF
hunger and want and are in condition
bordering on desperation.
It was learned that A5a<;o ors have
been secretly at work among the miners
of the New York and Cleveland Gas
Coal company for several days. One of
them was served with an injunction to
remain off the company's property and
leave the men alone. AS nearly as can
be learned concerted effort will be
made in the near future to bring out
the men at Turtle Greek, Sandy Creek
and Plum Creek. Just what procedure
will be resorted to has not yet been de-
ciGled.

FIRST DAYS PROGRESS.

Conference Report ON the Tariff Bill
Taken Up in the Senate.
WASHINGTON, July 2l.-The tariff
conference report was presented to the
senate during the day, but little prog.
ress was made OH it beyond the formal
reading of about two-thirds Of the re-
port. There was no indication Of when
the final vote would be reached. Dur
ing the day Mr.. Tillman openly threat
ened to flibuster until next December
if cotton bagging and cotton ties were
not restored to the free list. The sugar
amendments occasioned long debate
during which Mr.. Allison stated that
the conference rates were lower than
those of the senate and largely a concea'
sion to the house. Senators Vest, Jones,
Berry and White questioned this state
ment, arguing that the sugar trust Sc
cured larger benefits from the confer
ence schedule than from any prcvi-
ously offered. The lumber amendment
also brought out animated criticism
from Senators Teller and Pettigrew.

Difference to their opinions and wishes

is out of the way the currency message
will be sent to congress.

Wine Prices Cut.

A heavy cut has been made In the
prices Of wines for shipment from San
Francisco to New Orleans. Heretofore the
price has been 26 cents a gallon without
cooperage for all dry wines In barrels
The latest price list was announced at ID
cents, with cooperage, which amounts to
II cents without cdoperage.
The average shipments monthly to
New Orleans are 100000 gallons. The
out means loss to California winenakers
of as, 900 monthly. 1t Is the work Of the
wine dealers, who have antagonized the
winemakers.
In this fight The dealers have been aided
By the Italian Swiss company, which has
undercut the prices Of the association In
New Orleans, Chicago and New York.
The outlook for California winemakers
10 bad, as the falling of in the consump.
ton Of their wine In the east has been 20
