of the loss of her husband by the sink
ing of the French line steamer La

BILE island, Nova Scotia. has resulted in
a verdict against the company of 1O0-
600 francs.
The plaintiff at the same time was
debarred from claiming any money lost
with NJ ReSal which may hereafter be
recovered. The court found the com
pany responsible for the acts of the
captain, who was declared to be at
fault in bringing his ship to a stand
still after the collision in losing time in
launching boats and in not furnishing
the passengers with life buoys.

MORE MINE TROUBLES.
There Is Now a Demand For Equality
of Treatment For Whites
and Blacks.

Pittsburg, June 2S-A new phase has
presented itself in the agitation going
on among the miners for the past
month. It is the strongest among the
men at the Pittsburg and Midway and
Wear Coal company mines at Vernon.
The object sought by the agitation is
to have the union colored miners work
in common with the whites without
distinction as to places in the mines.
Threats of a suspension among the
whites are openly made if the rule is
not adopted. A meeting will probably
be held in Midway to determine the
sentiment in the matter by a vote. 1t
is thought that it will not be adopted.
1t has been the custom heretofore in
mines which employ colored men to
give them places together and separate
from the whites as far as possible, but
this was before the union was in as
flourishing a condition as now, and be-
fore the colored miners were members
thereof.

FIRST TRAIN RIDE.
A Family Near Cherryvale Which Had
Never Been on a Railroad Train.
[From the CoffeyvilIe JournaLl

TFrom the Coffeyville JournaL1
Visitors to Independence the other
day noticed what struck them as being
mighty queer in this day and age of the
world. 1t was a family which has lived
near Cherryvale for twenty-five years,
but which had never been in Indepen-
dence before and had never ridden on
a railroad train.
When they went to board the train
at Independence to go home, it was
their first impulse to get into the bag
gage car, and they would have done so,
had they not been prevented by the
trainmen. The family was of foreign
descent, which partially accounts for
their unfamiliarity with American Gus
toms.
