The premature ripening due TO the
hot dry weather is responsible for part
OF the heavy movements OF cotton to

Philadelphia. Sept. 24.--1he tragedy
that has been looked for since the coal
workers strike begun came suddenly
and unexpectedly At Shenandoah this
afternoon. A posse, hurriedly gathered

stantly killed and several others fell
more or less wounded. Sheriff Toole
lost no time In calling on the National
Guard general 10 send troops 70 aid
him. After consultation, the su.
thorities decided TO send troops TO the
turbulent region tonight.
Shenandoah's trouble was precipi-
tated by the closing Of six collieries
there this morning through the efforts
OF strike leaders. More will close 10.
morrow as q voluntary act, 1t is said,
on the part OF the Reading Company.
This 10 done at the request of Sheriff
Toole. who hopes In this manner 70
avoid further rioting. The outlook at
midnight, however. Is dubious, as the
foreigners are In an ugly mood after
the days happenings.
Elsewhere the situation Is quiet, but
people are looking for an outbreak in
the Hazleton district. and armed sher-
IFS deputies are much in evidence
there.
The Reading COMPANY has about
discontinued the sale OF coal for iuture
delivery. and tonight's rioting almost
certainly means the shutting OF OF
coal handling all over the anthracite
4 field, at least.

In the Persian language the pesang.
Its legs are longer than those of the
common goat, and its horns are very
much longer. The common goat has
existed as q domestic animal in
oriental countries from the very ear
lest times. From there it spread all
over the world. manifesting a remark
able adaptability to climate and cir
cumstances. In this diversity of sur
roundings great diversity of breeds
has appeared, such as the Angora
goat, the Syrian goat, the Cashmere
goat the Guinea goat of Africa, and
many others. No quadruped, except
the dog, has shown such susceptible
fly OF variation These differences
show most markedly In the quality
and quantity of the hair and in the
relative abundance of the two coats,
the long silky outer covering and the
softer wool1y hair beneath it.
Among the Greeks and Romans, the
goat was sacrificed to Bacchus be-
cause of its tendency to injure grape
