Clay County Miners All Out.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
BRAZIL, Ind. July 10.-The block coal
miners held a mass meeting in the court
house yard to-day. 1t was largely attended
and from the reports of the various COM
mitees it was shown that all the mines
in the county are at a standstill with the
exception of No. 1, belonging to the Brazil
Block Coal Company, in which five men
are reported to be working. A committee
was instructed to visit the mine and induce
these men to stop work. 1t was decided to
organize a relief committee and proceed at
once to solicit aid for the destitute, sew
eral cases were reported where families
were in actual want of food. The miners
executive committee, through William
Thompson, treasurer and secretary,
will issue credentials to the men sent to
solicit aid.
Mr.. Wells. of Clay City, was present at
the meeting and said all the miners in the
southern part of the county were out, and
determined to remain out until the sus-
pension was declared off. The men are
confident and more determined to fight a
winning battle now than they have been
since the inauguration of the strike. Con-
the labor commissioners who met the oper-
ators here on Thursday and heard the opeT-
ators side of the difficulty. did not meet

meet the commissioners and give a state
ment of their side of the case. However

Mourning Attire.
.Harner's Bazaar.

Second mourning in olden days meant
black and white or purple gowns. Now the
etiquette of mourning is entirely changed.
Six months is considered all-sufticient for
deep mourning and in many cases for any
mourning, although widows still wear it
for a year; and 1t is quite uncommon to
see anyone following out the old rule of
deep black for year, then lighter mourn
ing and finally puppies and grays. Second
mourning, therefore now remains the pc
Rod when trimmings and different fabrics
are allowed. The mourning silks trimmed
with crepe are very smart gowns both for
street and evening wear, and almost in
variaby becoming. The skirt is trimmed
with a deep band of crepe, while the waist
has folds Of the crepe arranged in surplice
or bertha effect around the shoulders
Chiffon and mousseline de sole are per-
missible in second mourning, and even dull
black crepe de Chine For summer wear
the transparent materials are made over
silk Innings and the lining is cut low in
the neck and without sleeves, making a
cool and comfortable costume; no trimming
save dull black ribbon and belt Is used
Black lawn is effective for summer gowns,
and should be made quite plain with no
lace or embroidery of any kind.
The question of wearing all-white gowns
during the summer season is much dis
cussed and never settled In ones own
home all white is quite permissible, but It
certainly does not seem suitable in the
street or at any watering place, even when
the skirt and coat style is worn with black
shirt 1t is best to wear all black even in
summer when not in ones own home.

of honor and loyalty, if they themselves
were not so capriciously bewitching, and
from an economic point of view so much
less expensive than wives. That they injure

sTAGNATED ATMOSPHERIC.
Weather Bureau Explains the Cause
of High Temperature.

WASHINGTON, July 10.--The intense
heat of the past several days in the CEN
trail valleys, due in part to the stagnation
of the atmosphere, has been broken by the
forward movement of the trough of low
pressure from Kansas to the lake regions
and by the advance of the high pressure
area from the north Pacific coast to Col
orado. A fall in temperature of 20 de-
grees in twenty-four hours has been re-
ported from Sioux City and Concordia. The
area indicating the fall in temperature has
advanced to the eightieth meridian and
covers the whole country from that me-
ridian to the Rocky mountains. except in
northern louisiana extreme northeastern
Texas, Georgia and South Carolina, where
the temperature has risen degrees. 1t Is
probable that this cooler weather will
reach the lower lake region this afternoon
and the Atlantic States Sunday afternoon,
giving cooler weather for several days.
