MINES SHUT DOWN
STRIKE ON IN PENNSYLVANIA
DISTRICT.
j IS EXPECTED TO Be COMPLETE
Strike Presagcs a str lggle Between Men
and Operators That Many Fear May
Lead to Disturbance and Perhaps
worse-Other News.

The much talkcd-of strike of the
anthracite mine-workers in the coal
regions of Pennsylvania, under the
auspices of the united mine workers.
and affecting about 145 900 union and
n%on-union workers, is practically in
a%ugurated and reports received from
the various sections indicate that
when the strike officially begins
according to the strike bulletin
issued by the president of the
mine-worlkers union, very few mines
will be in operation. just how many
men will obey the strike order cannot
be %conjectured. The union officials
steadfastly assert that all the union
men will remain away from work and
will be further strengthened by a large
majority of nonunion men. The OPP
orators on the other hand are conf
lent that the proportion of striking
miners will be greatly exaggerated.
Reports from Luzerne, Lackawana,
Schuylkill, Carbon and Northum ber-
land counties, where the most import
ant coal workings are, pressage a
struggle between the operators and
their men that many fear may lead to
disturbance and perhaps worse.

created intense satisfaction and has
materially accelerated the movement

A REMARKABLE PILGRIM.
Aged Woman Determined to See Pa

Aged Woman Determined to See Paris
Exposition.
An almost incredible story m
from France of the resolution and en-
ergy Of an old Alsatian woman who
was determined to see the exposition,
She was found, exhausted by hunger
and fatigue, on a road in the depart
ment of the Marine. When her
strength had been restored somewhat
by medical treatment and food she told
the following story: She was born in
Alsace on January 2, 1897, and is there
fore 103 years old. Seized with a burn
ing desire to see the exposition, she
mad left Alsace two weeks before, in
tending to walk all the way to Paris,
for she had a horror Of railroads, and.
besides was poor. She had accom-
plished more than half the journey and
had walked more than $50 miles. On
her shoulders she carried her luggage,
two bundles weighing 1fty-nine liyres
(pounds). Her money, which she car
ried in a handkerchief, was a triHing
burden, as it consisted of one 2-franc
piece. In this financial condition it Is
needless to add that the courageous old
woman had resolved at the outset not
to enter an inn or restaurant during
her journey. She subsisted entirely on
bread and cheese, slept in barns when
she could or in default of shelter passed
the night under the trees by the way
side. AS o o as she had recovered
her senses-for she was unconscious
when found-she wished to resume her
Journey, and 1t was difficult to make
her understand that Paris was yet a
long way off. At last she understood
and seemed resigned to her failure.
