the big politicians. Another casue
assigned for it is that it is a scheme
between the leaders on both sides of
the controversy to raise the price of
coal and wages at the same time.
Whether or not there is an element
OF truth in any of these rumors re-
mains to be seen.
The following accounts of the de-
velopment of the strike come from
newspaper correspondents in the re-
Gfons affected.
Number of Men Out.
The anthracite coal miners strike
has started in the four great districts
which supply practically all the hard
coal of the world. President John
Mitchell asserts that he has reports
showing 10000 men are out, and that
more will join the strikers ranks
within few days.
The operators, on the other hand,
declare that while many men are out,
the United Mine Workers union has
not made the showing it promised,
and that the miners cannot hold out
Nong for lack of funds and because
they cannot stop all operations.
The hard coal region is divided into
four great districts-the Lackawanna,
Wyoming, Lehigh and Schuylkill re-
gions. In the first two, representing
nearly 10000 men, the tie-up is prac-
tically complete. Only one mine en-
ploying a few hundred men is being
operated, and this the strikers say
they hope to close soon.

THE USEFUL ANGoRA GOAT.
Bred in the West for Various -oft-

From tie New York Tribunee.)


The problem Of clearing the land from
which trees have been removed and of ex-
terminating the persistent growth of shrub
berry has been solved by a Texas farmer
whose chief aid in the enterprise is the
goat A man who has studied the subject,
speaking of the work done by the browsing
goat, said that the animal shows his gen
crosby by giving his relation, the sheep,
an equal share Of the pasture, and mag
unanimously turns over TO the sheep all the
rich and succUIent grasses. The goat also
acts as the protector Of the sheep.
I'VE have never given the goat his Just
deserts" said the expert, and have failed
to give him credit fer his moral worth and
bis physical usefulness. In Roquefort
France. the dairymen combine the milk Of
the sheep and Of the goat in making the
most delicious cheese, which We import at
four times the price OF cur own dairy
cheese. however excellent We also import
millions of kidskins tanned. and in French
gloves, for both of which we pay high
prices to the detTiment Of home indus

Near Kansas City man has taken ad-
vantage OF the Texans discovery, and has
started TO clear up with Angora goats a
thousand acres of brushwood.
The value of the goat seems to be appre-
ciated by the residents OF the Western
States. a fact which was demonstrated at
the fair of the last month in Kansas City.
About 1900 goats were exhibited They
came from Kansas. Iowa, Texas, Mis-
souri,, and New Mexico, and among them
were some Of the finest specimens in the
country. Many people who visited the
fair had never seen an Angora goat be-
fore, and all listened attentiveiy to the
papers which were read on the subject of
