close down the North Franklin colliery at
Trevorton until after the strike was set
tied.
Foreman VIM. r. Luckenball was noti-
fed to inform the men the colliery would
be run as usual today. At five o'clock the
whistle was blown. but not over a dozen
miners appeared on the streets In their
wording clothes.
They had not gone far on the way 10
the breaker before they were stopped
BY men who had worked yesterday. Az
ter little persuasion all the miners re-
turned home. saying they would not go
into the mines until the trouble was end
ed.

tho colliery last night by 1900 Mount Car
mel men was sufficient to cause the
North Franklin employees TO quit. not

OF over i00 deputies and coal and iron
policemen, armed with Winchesters.

A GOOD SHOW.

The people of Rutland have seldom
seen a better circus than the Wallace
show, which exhibited in this city yes
terday. 1t differs from some of the
'grcateSt shows on earth in being

BILE for circus to be free from fakes.
Exaggeration is the traditional Ian

siblitieS from his extravaganza claims.
The Wallace show presents all the
familiar circus features and many new
ones besides. The performers arc all
first class and some of them probably
uncxcclcd in their line. The general

Mrs. l.. L. Smith secured an IN
junction against the city yesterday to
prevent them from crossing her prop
crty at the extension Of Elm street.
Judge Watson of the supreme court
granted the injunction.

purchase Of the blacksmith shop and
land purchased by the city from l.. j.
Bolster, and for which they paid 500
last week. Mrs. Smith has plans and
all other necessary appurtcnances
through which she alleges she has a

if the city wants it they will have to
pay $500, which is the amount of her
claim.
The injunction was served last night
and her son Immediately rebuilt the
fence around the property.
