Mayor Van Wyck Of New York Takes
Out First Few Pounds of Earth.
New York, March 24.-With a silver
spade and in the presence of thousands
of persons Mayor Van Wyck to-day lift
ed from an opening in the city hall
square few pounds of earth which
formally began work on the under
ground rapid transit railway system.
The ceremonies which marked the be-
ginning of this great engineering feat
were befitting an event of such impor-
tance. From cables swung across the
square hundreds of flags fiuttered and
on all buildings facing the square and
in the immediate vicinity bunting flew
in profusion. A great multitude gath
cred in the circumscribed space and
overlooked into the adjoining streets.
Early this morning workmen with crow
bars and picks removed a portion of
the tagging just below the steps of the
city hall, and it was from this spot
that the mayor took the first shovelful

districts, and the strike was not gen.
eral among the upward of $4,000 men
employed.
Indications point to the closing OF
some mines in the last named district
despite the assertions of officials Of
the Philadelphia and Reading Coal
and Iron company and other COM
panies operating the region that they
will continue their collieries in opera
ton.
A Strike without Violence.
With the exception of trivial in
cident at No. 3 colliery Of the Lehigh
Coal company, where a gang Of boys
compelled mule driver to seek cover
by throwing stones at him, the contest
thus far has been devoid OF violence.
The exact number Of men who
struck cannot at this time be told. as
only estimates of the number of men
who did not start work were made.
Reports. received by the United Mine
Workers officials from the entire an
thracite region were to them satisfac-
tory. In this territory, known as Dis
trict No. 7, there are 10000 men en-
ployed in and about the mines. OF
this number II Is conservatively esti-
mated that about so per cent. or 5000
miners, obeyed the order Of President
Mitchell to quit work. Five thousand
Of these belong to collieries which did
not work at all and the remaining g.
o0s to mines which worked short
handed.

CUPID DOESN'T DAWpLE,
Long engagements Productive of Tn
pleasant Difficulties.

pleasant Difficulties.
1t is sometimes said in defense of
long engagements that their duration
enables people ito get to know each
other" But this is absurd. In the first
place, it takes lifetime for people to
get thoroughly acquainted with each
other, and in the second place, Edwin
and Angelina married are perfectly diff
ferent persons from Edward and Ange-
lima engaged. In the first state Edwin
fetches Angelina's slippers, in the sec.
ond Angelina fetches his. History af-
fords many instances of the evils OF
long engagements. Take, for instance,
the patriarch Jacob. He engaged him.
self to Rachel for seven years. There
was apparently no reason for this de-
lay; 1t was a spontaneous offer on
Jacobs part. What was the result?
When the seven years were over he
married the wrong woman! Had the
engagement been of reasonable length
say, three or four weeks-this I'M
fortunate contretemps could hardly
have occurred. Again, to come to more
recent times. look at Paul and Virgin
la. After more or less definite I'M
Outstanding originating in infancy,
Virginia actually lost her life because
she was too shy to allow Paul to res
cue her from drowning before chang
ing her orbe-de-chambre for one Of
her gowns she had purchased during
her tour in Europe. II they had
been married before going away from
their native island the difficulty which
caused that exaggerated difidence
could hardly have arisen, and the ex-
quisite Virginia would probably have
the exquisite Virginia would probably
have lived to a green old age. One
more illustration of the evil of unduly
long engagements may be cited. Her.
cules Jones was engaged to Miss
Sabina Brown for ii years. There
was no special reason for so protract-
ed a delay except that both persons
concerned felt they had plenty OF leis-
ure before them. At the end of that
time Miss Browns two younger sis,
tiers had developed into beautiful wom-
anhood, while she herself was becom.
ing a trifle passe. The unfortunate
Jones fell in love with both the young
err ladies, and, unable to solve the
problem Of choosing between them and
his ancient love, he finally in desper-
alton married a girl of another fam
lily. Instances of the kind will doubt
less occur to every serious-thinking
person who has given due considera-
ton to so important a subject.-Phil

ers.)
the big politicians. Another casue
assigned for it is that 1t 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 IN 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-
gions 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 IL, 900 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
long 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 few hundred men is being
operated. and this the strikers say
they hope to close soon.
In Lehigh Region.
In the Lehigh region the situation Is

At st. Louis anthracite coal jumped
fifty cents higher in the st. Louis
market, making total advance of
fifty cents per ton since the strike be-
gan. The price there is now $7.75 per
ton. Local dealers say the price OF
coal has been advanced to them by the
eastern mine operators and that they
are compelled to raise the prices.
At New York coal jumped to $3.50 a
ton. How much higher 1t will go no
operator or dealer was willing to ven
