do not know what to do with IT, They speak with
too much force and their voices sound like that OF
the oracle itself when In reality they may be the
most modest and retiring OF mortals; or they go
to the other extreme--try TO speak softly TO save
their voices and pinch up their throats in doing IL
which. of course has effect directly opposite
to the one intended. If they would only acquire
their threats. she said they might their voices

not only would II not hurt them. but II would be

which speaking and singing were combined. for
they could then talk in the same key In which they
II would not put them out OF voice or sound rldcu-

PITTsBURG, Aug. l6.-A leaden sky
and fitful showers contributed to the
feeling of oppression which existed at
the miners camps at Turtle and Plum
creeks during the day. The men hud-
died together for shelter under the COM
missary tents, and, having nothing else
to do, put in the time smoking and dis
cussing the strike in all its phases. The
spirit of ggressiveness, however, has
largely died out. The same grim de-
termination to stick it out until starva-

tory is apparent, but there are no prop
ositions to attain their ends by force or
to 60 contrary to the sheriff's orders.
The march into Westm oreland county
will begin as soon as the injunction is
settled in court. Much anxiety is ex-
pressed as to the outcome. The men
stake everything OH their ability to
show their right to assemble and march
ON the public road.

SuubonnetS for Horses.

LONDON, Aug. l6.-The straw manu-.

big business in sunbonnets for horses,
owing to the instigation of the govern
ment, and the Society for the Preven-
tion Of Cruelty to Animals. The hats
are shaped on the Bordeaux model, hav-
ing high crown and a broad brim, like
the straw bathing hat used in the
United Staaes, with holes for the horses S
ears. The use of the bonnets has
greatly decreased the summer mortality
among horses in France.

PRINCE HENRI OF ORLEANS.

domen. Prince Henri was taken to the
residence of the Duo de Chartres and re-
ceived medical attendance.
The condition of Prince Henri of Or
leans is as satisfactory as could be ex-
pected. The doctors, after consultation,
have expressed the opinion that no i'm
portant organ was touched, but absolute
rest is necessary for recovery.
The duel grew out Of certain criti-
cisms made by Prince Henri of Orleans
upon the conduct of Italian officers and
soldiers while prisoners of Emperor
Menelik in Abyssinia.
Fighting Sharp and Determined.
The details of the duel show that the
encounter was very sharp and deter
mined. Immediately on the crossing
of swords Prince Henri vigorously
pressed his adversary. The Count of
Turin retreated to the limit of the
ground, and then resuming the offens-
i've, touched Prince Henri in the right
breast, though the weapon did not PEN
citrate the thorax. On the strength of
the report of the doctors the seconds
decided that the combat must go on.
The second assault was stopped be-
cause the combatants came into close
quarters.
In the third assault the Count of
Turin was hit in the back of the right
hand, but the wound was slight.
In the fourth assault the umpire,
Major Leontieff, declared that the
sword of Prince Henri was bent and
stopped the engagement long enough to
furnish the prince with new weapon.

In the fifth assault the combatanrs
again got into close quarters and were
Immediately stopped. Prince Henri, in
q counter blow, was hit in the right
lower region Of the abdomen. The doc
tors ON both sides examined the wound
and declared that by it Prince Henri
was rendered clearly inferior to his an
tagonist Major Leontieff and NJ.
Mourichon proposed that the combat be
stopped, and this was done by common
accord. While his wound was being
dressed Prince Henri, raising himself
upon the ground, extended his hand to
the Count of Turin, saying:
ALLOW me, monsqgnier, to shake
hands with YOU"
The count extended his hand.
After his wound had received a pre-
lminary dressing Prince Henri walked

his seconds, left Paris for Italy during
