Mr.. R. M. Carley of Golden, has on ex
hibition at the fair, cabinet of fine min
erals from different parts of the world,
some of them are very beautiful as well
as rare, especially the native copper and
silver, and free gold specimens. One of
the mineral displays that is attracting
much attention, is that from the Gold
STANDARD mine at San Pedro.
Quite lively fracas occurred the other
evening, between Brakemen Fl. j. Buch-
anan and A. Deuer, of Conductor Keith's
crew at Bernalillo. Full particulars of
the fracas have not been obtained, but it
seems that Deuer, being the smaller of
the two, used knife with telling effect,
to equalize the difference. Sixteen stitches
had to be taken in Buchanan's face after
his opponent got through with him.

WOMEN TAKE A HAND.
Three Hundred Men Forced to Quit
work by The ir Wives and Daugh-
ters-Strike Situation in
Pennsylvania.

Hazleton, Pa, Sept. 1.-two hundred
and fifty women made more trouble this
morning than 10000 striking miners have
caused since last Fridays shooting. They
were foreign women of the McDoo and
Audenried districts, and armed with clubs,
rolling pins, pokers and any other weapons
they could fnd, they invaded the wash
cries which hitherto have been working
and forced 800 men to quit work. As
most of the men were husbands, sons, or
brothers of the women they made no resist
ance, although this is the first successful
move made to get them out. There is
not now a oolliery of Importance in op-
Grafton in the district.
MULE DRIVERS CAUSE THE TROUBLE.
Hazleton, Pa, Sept. 16.-Originating
as it did in petty disagreement between
Lehigh & Wilkesbarre company's mule
drivers and their employers, and having
spread until it now effects nearly 10000
men, and most principal operators of the
middle coal felds, this strike has been one
of the most peculiar ever inaugurated in
the region. The miners have no organi-
cation. In many instances they do not
know exactly for what they struck, OK
cept that they felt that they we're unfairly
treated and wanted more pay. In SO per
cent of the idle collieries the miners are
at loss to cay how much they want, and
in such cases they quit work without even
asking for an increase.
RETURNING TO WORK.
Pittsburg, Sept. 16.-Between $4,000
and $4,000 coal miners in the Pittsburg
district returned to work today in ao-
cordance with the action taken in yester-
days convention, authorizing the men to
resume work in all the mines complying
with the provisions of the scale of 65
cents per ton adopted at Columbus. The
remainder of the $4,000 miners in the
district will be at work before the close
of the week. It is estimated that the
strike, which lasted 65 working days,
cost the people of the Pittsburg district
from $5,0O0,0OO to $7,O00,00O; of this
amount the miners lost $2,500,O00 in
wages.
The strike against the DeArmits will
continue indefinitely, arrangements hav-
ing been made to assess the working
miners 5 per cent of their wages to defray
the expenses Of keeping up the fight until
the 65 cent rate 10 made uniform through.

TYPHOID In ALASKA.
Miners at Dawson Dying from Fever
The Sickness Increased by
Bad Water.

San Francisco, Sept. 16.-John Sibley
Webb, the attorney at Washington, D. G.,
for the Alaska Commercial company, who
made visit to the Dawson and Klondike
mining district for the sole purpose of
informing himself of the conditions of
living there, and in Alaska generally, has
returned, and in speaking of what he saw,
says: development work on the creeks
was follwed by the washing down into
the river at Klondike and thence into the
Yukon above Dawson, large quantities of
filth and refuse. Sweeping as it does by
the very doors of the inhabitants of Daw-
son it is no wonder there should be sick
ness and death. In the little cemetery
there lay no less than 20 victims of ty-
phoid fever, and now the number has no
doubt been increased considerably.
Drinking water is very bad, and this adds
to the Sickness"
