On Wednesday the seventy-five en-
ployes at the Rockershousen coal
mines south of Bellaire went out on a
strike for 2 change in the screen bars
and a limitation of the dead work.
1t Is desired upon the part of the
workmen that the bars of the screen
be increased from three-eights to five
eighths of an an inch, and that the
men be paid for taking down the over
head soapstone which constitutes what
is known in mining parlance as dead
work. AS the company is not anxious
to run at present owing to the fact that
further repairs to the works are con-
templated, a speedy settlement of the
controversy may not be brought about
A new coal mine is to be opened at
Benwood Junction by John Brooks, of
Moundsyille, within the next few
weeks. There will be an entrance to
the mines from the west side of the
b. & @. tracks. The structural iron
work will be done by New York par

New Petticoats.

Petticoats are as elaborate as ever,
for they make up below the knee for
their sheath like plainness above There
are some extremely attractive spring
models shown in combinations of black
and white. One is of black and white
striped silk, the stripes being about
half an inch wide. 1t has a hounce of
white silk yelled by founce of chan
lilly, the silk founce being headed
and edged by a small, thick ruche of
white silk mingled with black. Anoth-
or skirt is of plain white taffeta, with
an accordion plated hounce of white
taffeta with a woven dot. This also is
trimmed with black and white ruches.
A petticoat of pink and gold changeable
silk is covered from the knee down
with very narrow ruffies of the same
material, and another, Of pale blue silk,
is yelled with white lace and adorn ed
with blue ribbon bows. The majority
of petticoats have the trimming run
ming upward, more or less, toward
the back.
For women who find silk skirts toe
expensive and not sufficiently durable
there are petticoats of silk moreer
(Which is not all silk almost as pretty,
much stronger and less costly. The
ribbon and less trimmings are usually
omitted on these, but rufies and plat
ings, with fat applications, are used
The silk moreen comes in all attractive
shades, and is to be found both plai1
and striped or figured with designs
similar to those printed on taffeta.
