Mig strike Innugurated.

Pittsburgh, Pa, July 5.--Industrial
circles are much excited over the de-
velopment in the situation among sew
cral important trades. On the verge
of the declaration of coal miners of the
Pittsburgh district TO take the lead In
the general suspension Of the coal min
ing industry came the concession OF the
tin plate and Amalgamated Association
of the Iron and Steel Workers. The
miners officials here say that idleness
will prevail in the majority of all the
rail and river mines i'm the Pittsburgh
district. They claim that the struggle
for higher wages will be of short durn-
tion and that by reason of the great
demand for coal for the lake trade at
this season OF the year they will be
granted an advance before the oper-
ators lose large contracts for the flu
tire delivery Of coal. The officials
claim that conservative estimate fixes
the number of men who will go on
strike in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio
and Illinois at 100000. They hope TO
increase this number as the strike
sentiment grows.

The globular and ford old gentleman, az

became as assiduous as a mother with her

But for some inexplicable reason the old
gentleman grew more and more dissatisfied
as his meal progressed, until, as he arose
from the table, he simply scowled angrily at
the expectant waiter.

the old fellow, great and portentous calm
enveloping him. Now, what does this

breaker, sir" replied the waiter, suavely.
'Mutilating the currency is crime, and
you have mutilated dollar bill. Therefore,

As the waiter pocketed the dollar, he
smiled.-Cincinnati Enquirer.
