THREE MEN KllKED IN A RIOT

Tragedy at Miners Meeting Near
Johnstown, Pa.-Asssassin Escapes,
Johnstown, Pa, April 17.-At a
speak-easy at mine 81 of the Berwind-
White Coal company, near Windber,
Somerset county, a riot occurred short
ly before midnight, in which three
men were killed, one being shot and
stabbed to death, and another man
was so badly stabbed that his recov-
cry is doubtful One Italian is suppos-
ed to have done the killing. He is
said to have fled toward this city and
the police are on the lookout for him.
The killing is said to have been the
elimination of drunken row, which
is the outgrowth of trouble that has
been brewing among the miners at
Windber for several weeks, due largely
to the influence of employees from
mines outside this district. An at
tempt was made to hold a meeting at
Windber one week ago in order to
create sympathy for the strikers ut
the Horatio mine of the Berwind-
White company, but the meeting failed
and the Windber mines have been
scenes of tumultous gatherings.

REPORT OF BoER DEFEAT.
English Capture and ImprIson Several
Men.


London, April 1.-THE Cape Town
correspondent of the Daily Telegraph,
telegraphing Sunday, says:
"An unconfirmed report is in circu-
lation here that Gen. Brabant has in
flicted a crushing defeat upon the
Beers at Wepener, capturing and TAX
ing prisoners"
April Is, says:
Col. Dalgety wired yesterday: All
well. Enemy apparently slackening
attack
Gen. Chermside's division is en-
camped seventeen miles east of the
railway. Beers are supposed to be in
the vicinity, but an attack by them is
improbable"
A special dispatch from Bloemfon-
tein, dated April IA, says: "A patrol
of Royal Irish, with whom was Lord
Rosslyn, has been captured. Lord
Rosslyn has been sent to Kroonstad."
This is important but as to how
many men were in the captured party
the brief dispatch is silent This is
taken as bad sign, for unless the loss
was serious the censor would un-
doubtedly pass the figures minimizing
the bad news. 1t is supposed that Lord
Rosslyn, who was a newspaper corre-
spondent, was attached to the detach-
ment, the members of which were Roy
al Irish rifles. Except for reports from
the Boer camps the night has brought
little news of the situation at the
front. These dispatches would indi-
cate that the Dutch forces operating
in the southern part of the Orange Free
State are holding their own, despite
statements that their recent moves
were unimportant. The situation in its
chief points is apparently unchanged.

A HINT FOR SPRING.
When Housekeepers Are Frightening the
Interiors OF Their Homes.

Now that the backbone OF this re-
markable winter is broken, housekeep-
ers are remarking the dingy look of
the home interior. The question of
new wall coverings is up. Paper is
dear and short lived; kalsomines are
dirty and scaly; paint is costly. The
use of such a cement as Alabastine,
for instance, will solve the problem.
This admirable wall coating is clean,
pure and wholesome. 1t can be put
on with no trouble by anyone; there
is choice of many beautiful tints; and
it is long lasting.
