 Uncle Sam is spending @, 900. 900 for rocks ani timber to dump on the bottom of Lake Eric in front of BuffAlo When tho work is finished. that city will have ono of the biggest aud fnest artificial hsrbors in the world.
 Having no natural harbor of its own Bntfalo has long been handicapped. Shipping at tho Buffalo wharfs has been exposed to the storms which sweep up the lako AS Buffalo is ono of the most importan, ports on tho great lakes this lack has been severely felt Being the terminus for several lines of rail. roads and situated at the eastern end cf freo lake navigation the port Is as busy a ono as some of the largest on the Atlantic seaboaId. Into Buffalo are brought every year mountains of grain and other produce from the west and its great elevators line the water front for miles.
 To protect this shipping the federal government is building a line of break. waters ga miles in length. They form a sort of somicirele of the water front and are pierced at intervals with ship channels Inside of this line of break waters when they arc finished. the navies of the world can ride at anchor.
 Tho work was begun early in the summer of 1897 and continued until cold weather ltwas resumed last spring and will soon be interrupted again by the closing 0f the season. It will be in- ished in about two years more.
 The bIeakwaters arc of two styles of construction. the timber crib aud rubble mound Tho timber crib style is most in vogue on the great lakes. lt has an advantage in that it is available Co tic up to. but it has disadvantages which will probably soon relegate it Co the r1>, with many Cther old taSnioned ap- puItcnauces of lake commerce. It is neither SD stable nor SO enduring as the fu55lc mound. it is constantly in need of rcrairs owing to decay and injury. and i,s cost .s altogether disproportio3. a'c Co .ts comparative pormanence.

Miners Strike Takes a New
Lease of Life.
Appeals Of Mother Jones Fixes Them
to Further Resist the Operators
They Expect Hot Time Later--No
Out Breaks Have as Yet Occurred -
Wonderful Influence Of Woman.

CUMBERLAND, Md. June 1.-The
advent of "Mother Jones. an elder
II labor organizer. into the Georges
Creek region saved the day for the
organization and prevented the
strike from being declared off this
evening.
Last Thursday the miners OF the
Maryland. Georges Greek, American
and New Central coal companies
held meetings, and by an almost un.
animous vote declared that unless
the organizers called the strike off
that they would do so.
Realizing that something must be
done Mother Jones" OF Chicago,
then at Punxsutawnev, Pa. was
sent Ter and she proved a wonderful
success.
Her first effort to arouse enthu-
siasm was made by marching at the
head of five hundred striking miners
through the region. later addressing
a mass meeting. Her presence set
the miners wild.
The miners wives, daughters and
sisters had been pleadingsfor weeks
with the men to return to work and
when success had about crowned
their efforts, Mother Jones, versed
in the ways of women, appeared
among them and by her persuasion
soon had the women converted to
the strikers cause. Last night she
addressed 1900 miners. In the au-
dience were 500 women who APP
plauded her atterances to the echo.
This afternoon she addressed an
audience of nearly 1000 in a mead
ow near Frostburg, and so marve-
lousy did she win those over that
wanted to return to work that at
2 o'clock this afternoon. the hour
set for the miners to meet at Iona
coming to declare the strike off, not
one miner put in an appearance.
They had all gone to hear Mrs
Jones. An operator of one of the
companies was communicated with
by your correspondent. who said
that Mother . Jones had won the
day that the strike would last all
summer, that the companies had no
other hope
Mrs Jones is over 65. She will
organize the women before leaving
the region.

room. As soon as all we're in, the
door was closed and locked and the
