Washington - Miners and En-
ployers Striving to Agree.

Pittsburg, Nov. 24.-The French and
Belgian glass workers at Arnold. Pa,
near here, met last night and decided
to go to Washington and join Debs
Social Democracy. On March 1 next
81 men will leave, and about a month
later the entire colony of nearly 600
persons will follow.
The wOrkmen complain that here in
the east the glass industry is so IN
certain and the market so fuctuating
that they are working only about half
the year, and SO average no better
wages than they made in the old cOun-
try. On the western coast they think
they would have an absolute new field
as the materials for glass manufacture
abound there. The glass workers all
have some money, each of them hav-
ing saved up from $500 to 81, coo, and it
is their plan to put their individual
savings into a large four-tank CO.

The Turkey Market.

The turkey abdicated his position as
king of the barnyard yesterday to become
the monarch of the local market. He was
here in very great abundance and there
were very few homes to which cOrn-fed
cobbler did not find his way.
The market was almost surfeited on &C
count of the large importation from Kan
sas. but during the whole day there was
no lack of sale for the largest and fat
test of the flock For all that, the sales
were hardly as large as had been ex-
pected by the local sellers, and before the
dav was over the price of Herr Turkey
had gone down 2la cents.
This does rot mean that the latest
gobbler will not be smoking on JQany
thousand Thanksgiving platters today,
fo- there are few dealers who have any
but lean and hungry-looking fowls hang
ing on their market hooks.

never give Walcott another chance, in
spite of the fact that his brother, who
acts as his manager, virtually agreed
to o Rourke's proposition that the men
meet at 1877 pounds. Lavigne says that
he has twice demonstrated his superior
ity over the Boston fighter, and will
not meet him again.

THE FOOTBALL GAME.
Young Mems Christian Association
Against the University of Utah.

Roast turkey and it's attendant gas
tronomic relishes will have a secondary
place today in the Thanksgiving minds
of the football enthusiast. With the
coming OF the dawn his first thought
will be of the gridiron contest between
the Y NJ. c. A. and University athletes,
which is booked for this afternoon at
100 O'Clock.
The game will struggle for the blue
and the white. The Y. NJ G. A. team
will lack the generalship today of Jerry
Cross, who was disabled yesterday for
athletics by a severe chill. 1t is hoped
by his admirers that he will be in con-
dition for the game, but if he does
not, Alb Howell will perform the duties
of quarter back for the team. He went
through . successful practice. and is
expected to give satisfaction in an
emergency. Another 7. NJ. C. a. ac-
QUESTION is Howard, the giant center,
who drifted into the city recently. Paul
kimbau will also be used in one of the
halves as Roberts alternate at full
back.
In the absence of Cross. Mart Allen
will be captain of the team. The lar
gest crowd of the season is confidently
looked for, particularly if the weather
is cot recalcitrant.
