THE STRIKE.

The big strike among the miners is
spreading rapidly and at present the
situation is great deal worse than at
any time since its start. In several
places hundreds of men and their
families are starving and violence is
sure to follow. The West Virginia
miners have all gone out and coal
famine is threatened in the industrial
centers. The workmen are all of one
voice and are determined to stay out
until the question of wages is settled
The situation is grave one.

The Espy base ball club went to
Light Street last Saturday and de-
feated the ''crack" team of that place
by the score of IL to 10. The
Light Street correspondent to the
DAILY, in his evident desire for sensa-
tionaiism, has chosen to score the
Espy players for their "ungentlemen-
ly" actions, but we are surprised that
IN his eloquent attack upon the Espy
team, he should allow himself to be.
come so prejudiced as to forget the
repeated dirty tricks played upon
Espy by the several half drunken
players of the Light Streetteam. We
are acquainted with the author Of this
misleading communication from Light
Street, but never considered him a
person who would allow himself to
become so far influenced through a
desire to see his team win, that he
could not write a fair and impartial
account Of the game, In his eager
desire to roast Espy, he does not ex-
plain why Espy left the field in the
last inning. He does not tell how
one of his home players, in the las
inning, baked an Espy fielder, pre-
venting him from catching the ball
which, with the double play which II
all probability would have followed
would have retired the side and wo
the game for Espy. The Espy tear
f will be pleased to arrange anotne
, game with Light Street to be playe
on neutral ground. We do not oil
ject to this young scribe's boastln!
, but in the Light Street base ball clu
! we can see nothing over which
! become enthusiastic. II.

BASE BALL.

Lock Haven came to town Thurs
day for a two days stand with our
boys. The first game was an easy
victory for the Blue Birds, who out
stayed their opponents both at bat
and IN the field. Both pitchers were
batted rather hard, but Sperlin OF the
visitors received great deal the worst
of it. There were three home runs
in the game, Hallman, Goodhart and
Splain each having one to their credit.

A green and black. fancy wool mixture

IL can be fastened in the bnok, or under

worn over various blouses. The jacket is
of green velvet. finished on the edge with
a fril of changeable taffeta ribbon, head
ed by simple braiding pattern in black
and gold soutaohe. The girdle, stock
collar and waist frills are of the taffeta.
