Pittsburg, Pa, September THE
Efforts to evict the striking miners OF
the Pittsburg & Chicago Gas Coal
company at Orangeville, one and half
miles from Gastonville, resulted in a
b riot of no mean proportions, and the
utter failure on the part of the COM
pany to accomplish its object.
When the news that the evictions
were to be attempted the whole vicinity
about Finleyville, Gastonville and
Orangevile became wildly excited.
About o'clock last night twenty
deputies from Washington, Pa, in
charge of Chief Deputy Joseph Hemp
hill, reached Finleyville, where they
were met by large crowd of strikers
and their friends. Each deputy was
armed with a Winchester rifle and a
revolver, but in spite of this the strik-
ers, headed by 100 Polish women.
closed on them, and the deputies re-
ceived rough treatment. They were
gradually forced back and finally re-
treated to Gastonville, where they were
followed by a crowd of about 200 men
and women. At Gastonville, the dep
uties took refuge in the office OF the
company, where they were kept all
night during which the building was
bombarded with stones and bricks and
an occasional shot was fired. At z
o'clock this morning the trouble Of the
night reached a climax when the depu-
ties sailed forth from their besieged
quarters and started to march to
Orongeville.
Each one carried his Winchester in
his hand and his revolver was exposed
but they had no terror for the besiegers.
Headed by the women the strikers
rushed On the deputies with stones,
clubs and pick handles, and blows fell
thick and fast.
One of the big women wrested the
rife from deputy's hands and struck
him on the head with it, inflicting
serious injury. BY this time one thou
sand men, women and children had
joined the crowd. They came from
Snowden Calamity and Finleyville.
The derdties slowly made their way to
Orangevffle,> taking all of the insults
and injuries, but never firing shot.
They finally took refuge in a vacant
house, closely followed BY the mob,
which quickly surrounded the build
ing and threatened to burn it.
Finally one of the strikers ap-
preached the house with flag of-truce
and conference was held. The depu-
ties were ordered to leave the town,
and after short parley decided to do
SO. They emerged from the house
badly scared lot of men, and walking
between the opened ranks of the strik-
ers, started for Gastonville. Almost
every man in the posse was cut and
bleeding and several were seriously
hurt. One had his right hand almost
severed by a sharp stone AS the de-
feated deputies ran the gauntlet they
were greeted by Kisses and curses and
ridicule. The strikers then closed be-
hind them and marched them to the
station, where they took the train for
Washington, Pa.
After their departure the mob dis
persed, and everything is quiet now.
The officials Of the company say no
further attempt will be made to evict
the miners for the present.

''Do not, let me beg of you. be afraiG of so called failures. said well known artist addressing his class. "They are only stepping stones to success, the premiums we all must pay for expert eDce l may say, without vanity, that I have been fairly successful ill my pro fession, and yet to one canvas that suc- oeeded there have been as many IS 40 which 1 have seraped down with my palette knife ill disgust Even if a stu dent never succeeds, his very failures may be noble ;
 1t is not only to art that this exhorta. tion might apply. In every carear in every walk in life, the same point of view should be taken. Failures are not failures really-they are lessons; they are stepping stones They should not be associated for moment with despond eney or hopelessness. Just as child tumbles and picks himself up as . mat ter of course and runs gayly on, so should we children of larger growth regard the ups and downs of life, never losing courage, however often we tum- ble. Young people especially should be taught that it is not always success Go succeed and that disappointments should be taken philosophieally Tho idea of booby prizo i'll games is good one.

QUEER LAKE SALAWlk.
Its Waters Grow Warm in Winter. ana
 Men Can Fish There With Clubs.

 This lake, which is 90 miles long and about 10 miles wide, is perhaps the on. iy one i'll all that extreme northern re. glon which does not freeze over durino the winter No communication has been discovered between it and the sea, nev. ertheless at high water upon the ooasta ot the northern ocean the level of the lake rises, and it falls again at low tide.
 Thls sympathy with the sea does not extend to the point of making Salawik 3 salt lake. On the contrary, its waters are good to drink But another of it's peeuliarities is that it's temperature rises Ill winter and falls ill summer. When all the water courses of the neighboring country are completely frozen over, Lake Salawik becomes so warm that # -' AS'tAA1 P4SdettliU tO DdUtie Ill It.

 This Fcculiarity makes it i'll the win. ter time q Mecca of fishermen. The abundance .. fish i'll the lake is so great that q person can almost catch them with the hand and can kill large ouan. titles with 3 club. Here for the miners IS a source Of food supply which they had not counted upon and which cer- tainly will contribute to diminish the cost of living, especially during the winter in that inhospitable region. h an hour man can get enough fish to supply himself for month, and of the very best quality, including salmon ranging from 90 to 50 pounds in weight
 It will not be astonishing if some fine day we may see upon the shores of Lake SalawIk ono of those fashionable hotels which are the glory of American watering places. s.-Lewiston (Me. Re

 spools and Shoe Pegs.

spoOlS anu shoe 1eSF.
 "Oxford county, Me, turns out near ly all the spools on which the sewing thread of this country is wound, D said a wholesale dealer ill such articles to the writer ..Tho spools are made from white birch timber, and they are pro duced by the million in Oxford county. There are many other parts of western Maine, also, where the industry is inn portant There arc numerous sawmills ill that part of the state which are kept busy all the year round sawing white birch logs into strips 4 feet long and from to 2 inches wide and of the same thickness. These strips are sent to the spool factories, where they are quickly worked into Spools by the most ingen. ious labor saving machinery.
 "The strips of white birch are fed in- to one machine, and they are not toueh- ed, ill fact, are hardly seen again, until the spools, all finished for market ex- cept polishing, drop out by the bushel from another machine several rods away from where tho strips started in. Tie spools get their gloss by being rapidly ravolved i'll barrels turned by machin, cry, the polish resulting from the con. tact of the spools i'll the barrel
 @In the backwnods villages of Ox- ford county one sees scarcely any other industry but spoolmaking. and every person ill the neighborhood IS i'll some way interested in the business. The fac- tories have been eating ints the Maine birch forests for years, but there still seems to he enough of the timber left t@ feed the machinery for many years to come. Hundreds of thousands of feet of logs arc cut and sawed iato spool tim Ser annually.
 "Shoe peg factories arc also an tm- poctant branch of business once peoui- far to Maine although it has of Late heen followed to some extent ln other eastern states and is spreading ta the hard wood forests of northern Pennsyl- yania. Maple is used largely in the manufacture of shoe pegs, although white birch is used at some factories Shoe pegs are sold by the bushel and are worth all the way from 75 cents to s1 a bushel, according te quality Mora l than S150, 000 was received by Malp@ shoe peg factories last year for gootia

Reginald Hanseomb stopped in tho ball and nervously fumbled at the rim of his hat, meanwhile gazing into Pc cahontas Poindexter's E eyes with fond ness that the beautiful girl could not mistake.
 He opened his lips as if about to speak, but tho words that he sought to utter would not come, and the fair maiden gave low, sweet sigh that was calculated to fill his heart with blowholes.
 Yet he stood there, and she stood fin front of him, looking and longing and wondering why he hesitated
 Once she was almost tempted to tako him back into the parlor and tell him thnt it was all right; that she knew how he felt about it, and that she would just take it for granted without the usual formality. But hor maiden modesty rose in rebellion, and she said to herself:
 "No. If he is too timid, too cowardly. te say the words, 1t will perhaps be bet ter for us both if we take diyerging ways. !"
 Then, speaking aloud, she said:

 But half a minute later she heard aim returning. Her heart gave a glad leap, and she rushed to the door to ad- init him.
 Ho stood looking down into her sweet, expectant face for moment aft CT the door had swung back, and then. clearing his throat he said
 Some peslsy kid punctured my tire while l was inside. I wonder if I could borrow your mending outfit for about two minutes?''
 "No," she replied My repairing outfit is up in the attic, and I can't find it tonight Walk home It'll do you good.
