srelkl FOR THEIR PAY.
six Hundred Kentucky Miners Have Not
Seen Money For Months.

Central City, KY, Oct. l6.-A
strike is now on against the coal
miners Of the Western Kentucky dis.
trict. 1t is confined to the smaller
mines, but the movement is spread
ing. There are now about 900 men
out at different places, as follows:
Island, 90; Drakesboro, 100; Bevier,
100; Williams, rs; Carbondale, 70;
Hillside, rs; Powderly, IS. 1t is con-
fined to pick miners and has not been
taken UP by machine miners. The
men demand three cents a bushel
for mining coal instead of the present
rate Of two and one-half cents, and
$l.25 instead of ST. for entry work.
The men average about fifty bushels
each a day.
The principal grievance, however is
the fact that the companies do not
pay off their men regularly, some of
them being three and four months
behind. They use the company
store plan of paying men, which is
very uuSdVlSIdcGOTy 10 Jne miners,
The men are now demanding a reg.
ular pay day and cash payments
every month.
The mines of the Central Coal and
Iron Company at this place and Rem
der are paid off regularly, as desired,
but delegations are here trying to get
the men to go out on sympathetic
strike, aud convention will be held
here Tuesday by delegations from
the different mines. The are several
men here now, some of them showing
statements of credits from their EN-
ployers for August and September,
but who had TO walk here, not being
able to get any thing from their COM
panies but merchandise.

MILLION FOR TWO EYES.
From Far Away India Comes a King OF
Heaters to Work on a Croesus.


New York, Oct. 16.-A mysterious
stranger, DR.. Guelph Norman, ply
stefan from far away India, has tTav-
eled more than half way around the
earth to try to restore sight to the blind
eyes of the multimillionaire, Chas. B.
Rouss. The actual treatment con-
sumed but fifteen minutes.
Mr. Rouss reclined in a big easy
chair in his private Office, and the
long, weird looking doctor from India
commenced operations by feeling his.
pulse. Then he looked upward and
muttered what sounded like prayer.
The doctor gazed earnestly into his
patients eyes and proceeded to rub a
colorless liquid over the lids and
temples with mysterious motions. He.
stroked the back Of the head Each
motion was timed.
When the doctors treatment was
over Mr.. Rouss could see the doctor's
hand enough to tell what it was when
held ten inches from his eyes. At
fourteen inches the millionaire could
only tell that there was some sort Of
an object before him.
DIR. Norman says he will restore
sight to the eyes of the patient within
four weeks, aud, though he has been
at work for several days, the fact was.
not generally known,
The fact that Rouss offers 81 100000
or more to be able to see as other
folks do reached Dr. Norman in his
home in Iudia. He IS an English
man, but has lived in India for many
years. He is not an NJ. D. according
to medical ideas, but he claims to be
skilled in arts of optical cures, which
are almost as old as civilization, and
the one now employed on Mr. Rouss
is said to date back as far as the
Vedas, the book of sacred and his
toric writings, embracing the ancient
philosophy Of the Aryans.

.Dry" Laws stiIIin Force.

Frankfort, KY, Oct, l5.-In the
Court Of Appeals this morning Chief
Justice Lewis handed down an opin-
ion which knocks out the sensational
construction that was put on an old
opinion, and by when it was thought
most of the local-option towns of the
State became wet" September rs
last. He virtually holds all these are
as "dry" as they ever we're. The
opinion is in the case of ,,Stamper VS..
Commonwealth from Carter county.
1t explains the old opinion of Judge
Hazelriggs, in which he says he
didn't mean that all these old local
acts would stand repealed September
IS, but that on that day the penalties
provided in all these local acts must
become uniform. This uniform pen
atty is now in effect, he says, and
consists of fine of from 500 to $500
for each violation of any of these
local acts which do not otherwise con-
hict with the Constitution and which
are still in force.
