The Striking Glass Workers.

Bridgeton, N. ], April 1.-THE
strike of the window glass workers in
sympathy with and to aid the strik
ing bottle blowers will force the cut
ters and hatteners into idleness after
they shall have finished up the work
now on hand. These latter workmen
had no voice in the strike and do not
approve of 1t. They will stand by
their contracts with the manufacturers
as long as there is any ware for them
to work on. The Cumberland, the CO.
hansey and the More-Jonas factories
refuse to unionize their bottle factor
les, despite the action of the window
glass men. The situation is very
grave.

Hur" is to be dramatized under the
supervision of Klaw & Erlanger, and

and its religious features protected.
He is now satisfied this can and will
be done.

Awrn1 Mrcck NnrrnmIr Arerted.

Cleveland, o., April ia hundred
passengers on a Cleveland, Canton and
Southern railroad train had a narrow
escape from death yesterday. The
train was crossing a drawbridge over
the Cuyahoga river, when the engine
and the three cars left the rails and
ran several feet on the ties. The en-
gine crashed into the supports of the
bridge and was thus saved from top
pling over into the river, about 30 feet
below. Had the train not slowed down
on a signal, nothing could have pre-
vented it's going through the bridge.

When spring time comes, after the dull,
heavy winter weather, we all feel the need
of something to tone up the system. For
merly this was done by the use of bitter de-

ocean beach, and the practice of spending q
few days on the Shore is finding more and
more devotees every year. so much so that
the Seaside Hotels make extra arrangements
to accommodate the early Spring visitors.
Atlantic City, with its numerous open-all-
the-yesr hotels, sun parlors and magnificent
boardwalk with a southern exposure, giving
promenaders splendid view of the ocean
