SHERIFF CALLS Fur TROOPS
Fears That Strikers WilI Burn az
Illinois ViIta0e.

Fears That strikers HiU Burn an
Illinois Viltage.
HILLSBORO, ILL, Aug. 17.-In the
mining village OF Gotten to-day, in spite of
the procla amation of President Traylor,
600 strikers marched triumphan:ly
through the streets. During the morning
boasts were made by the strikers that
they would enter the village, and Sheriff
Randle ordered twenty extra deputies on
duty. At 2 o'clock this afternoon the
deputies saw coming up the highway the
600 strikers. marching eight abreast, a
band bringing up the rear. The twenty
Deputy Sheriffs, armed with muskes,
wese stationed across the road, about 100
yards inside the corporate limits.
The line stood with fixed bayonets while
General Bradley's army drew near
President Traylor of the village board
stepped in front of the deputies, and when
the strikers came up he ordered halt.
Bradley, disregarding the com mand, or
dered the men forward and they obeyed.
They pushed Traylor forcibly aside, and
when the deputies were reached their
guns were seized and they, too, were
forcibly thrown aside, while the march
continued. No order to fire was gwen,
and none of the deputies were willing TO
fire without orders.
Traylor shouted TO arrest Bradley. Two
Deputy Sheriffs seized him and before he
could be rescued they rushed him through
a side street. placed him in carriage and
hastily brought him to the Hillsboro Jail.
Meanwhile, the victorious army of
strikers moved into the village. As soon
as Sheriff Randle saw that the deputies
were overpowered, he formed them in
picket line around the coal mine, and or
dsred them to shoot any one attempting
t0 come on the property of the coal COM
pany without permit.
The strikers remained near the elevator
until after the men had quit work at 5
O'Clock, hoping to have meeting with
them, but the workin1 miners went home
as soon as they had quit work, and re-
fused TO parley with the strikers.
The Sheriff has asked for troops, as
trouble is feared tomorrow. but Governor
Tanner has refused until 1T is shown that
the Sheriff is unable to cope with the
strikers. The Sheriff fears that the town
will be burned, and has SO wired the Gov
ernor.

a we!l-known young railroad man, with a
friend, visited the house OF Anne RagbY,

In the meantime other scenes were
being enacted at both Orlewtz's and
at Hollanders. Orewitz imagined that
all Harlem had gone stark mad. Peo-
pie were rushing in at intervals and de-
manding to know what he wanted,
only to be met with, II didn't call YOU"
or nobody called you from here"
At Hollanders they looked on each
victim with pity. I'VE have no tele-
phone here. Go next door, in the cigar
store"
Jolly Harry Fellows, the son of our
district attorney, was as pliabe as his
predecessors, and his supposed con-

He succeeded gradually in raising his
voice up to it's highest pitch, by an
swering back. II can't hear you, speak

The man yelled till he was red in the
face. He nearly dslodged the wicked
funnel from its fastenings.
William Early, pleasant-face ced

o'clock in the evening until the store
closed and he declared with emphasis
that Cunningham (by wnom he was
supposed to have been called) could
hang himself. I'll be darned If I'll hunt
for him any more. Now I've been over
to Hollander's, to Orlewitz's and to the
Republican club three times They all
swear he isn't there, and think I'm
jollying them"
He was kept in ignorance of the truth

of the actor by that name, nearly put

Sir Lewis Morris looks forward to the
time when the Welsh University will
have two thousand students. After, all,
this will not be a great number. Wales
by that time, probably, viii have a pop
ulation of 100000. AS half of the two
thousand are likely to be drafted from
England, the number of students in pro-
portion to the population in Wales will
be one in every two thousand,
