TO reach the eye by the dust in the air
Of the room. We do not see the sun
by it. AS unimportant as this curious
stuff seems, it plays a conspicuous part
in nature. 1t is what makes the sky APP

we see the dust illuminated by the sun.

1t is to dust that we owe the moderately

MINERS QUIT WORK.

Trouble Over Wages in the Cleveland
District.
CLEVELAND, April 4.-Work has been
suspended in all the coal mines of the
Ohio district. The cause is the fact
that the 10 per cent increase in wages
agreed upon between the miners and
mine operators at Columbus and Chi.
cago has not been applied to the com.
mon laborers in the mines. The oper.
ators say they have not yet had time
to make all the readiustments neces.
sary because of the new wage scale.
A number of them have gone to the
mines from this city to hasten matters
and the utmost confidence is expressed
that the matter will be Strengthened by
the middle OF the week.
