Any female complaint may produce Mysteries, which
must be regarded as a symptom only. The cause, however,

nerve centers, dispelling effectually all those distressing
symptoms.

STEEL STRIKERS
GAIN ACCESSI0NS.
Men in Trust Mills at Mckeesport and
Pittsburg Join the Amalgamated.

Pittsburg. Pa, Aug. 1.-THE
struggle for mastery between manu-
facturers and men in the steel indus
try is now fairly launched, and on the
first show of strength advantage is
with the former.
The general strike orders issued by
President Shaffer OF the Amalgamat-

cording to the best figures obtain
able The first two preliminary calls
were answered by about 10, 900 men,
so that the total number now out is
in the neighbOrhood of 10000.
The strikers made gains here to-
day over the showing of last night
and their prospects for further aces
sions at both MckeespOrt and Wheel
ing during the week are very favor
able The action of the Amalgamat-
ed men at Chicago. Joliet and Bay

their failure to secure any recruits in

pointing to them. They are keeping
up the fight, however, in a spirited
manner and claim that they have
strength in reserve which will sur
prise their opponents. They assert
that they have gained a foothold in
the Carnegie mills in this city, and at
the time desired the men will come
out.

Sedalia, Mo, Aug 13.-Albert Har-
line attempted to demolish Dan T.

morning with bomb filled with
powder, because William Clifford, the

with free drinks. The bomb was in
geniously constructed of a brass tube
surrounded by thick layer of plast-

Harline informed the bartender
that if he did not furnish him with a
drink he would blow the building to
atoms. The bartender stood pat,
and Harline lighted the fuse and
dropped it on the floor. Clifford
sprang over the bar extinguished the

police. The bomb was dissected at
police headquarters and sufficient
explosive was found to have wrecked

After the work was done the rob-

the matter. The whole affair was
carried out without a hitch, and it is
believed the men have hadexperience

While the robbery was going on
the operator at Caney, hearing the
shots, advised the Denison office that
the train was being robbed. After
holding the train two hours the rob

Patrons: The State Grange COM
mittec on taxation and legislation de-
sire to thank you, one and all for the
earnest work, cordial sympathy and
untiinching courage with which you
have supported us in our work of the
past legislative session. We fully
realize that to your loyal support il is
largely due that the Grange banner
a0W floats proudly in victory instead
Of trailing in defeat.
We also wish to recognize the debt
w owe to our worthy State master
who was with US most of the time.
Wise in council. strong in influence
and cordial in sympathy. he was ever
q tower of strength.
To our worthy state lecturer and
the members of the executive COM
nittce IL due Gpecial mention for hard
work ana nntiring devotion.
To the Speaker of the House. also
are our thanks due for valuable aid
rendered At critical periods. There are
many others who deserve particular
mention but space forbids and we can
only extend to all who assisted us our
hearty thanks.
We shall Of course report to the
State Grange. but it may not be amiss.
at this time briefly to allude to the
work accomplished.
In our report to the State Grange at
Lewiston We mapped out the work we
deemed wise to undertake at that
time Briefly, it was to compel those
corporations created by authority of
the State to bear 4 larger share of the
IA;
tent relieve the real estate and produc-
tive industries. We also believed the.
owners of wild lands were escaping too
easily.
Eecei, ing authority from the State
Grange we presented nine bills to the
Legislature all but one Of which we
succeeded in having enacted into law;
not all Of them as originally drafted.
not always getting what we deemed
full measure of justice. but in every
case establishing the equity of the
grange position and in the aggregate
yielding an additional revenue which
will, according to good judges, relieve
the working classes of about one
thousand dollars day for every
working day in the year.
To us, however. as Patrons. this re-
suit means more than dollars and
cents. 1t means victory for the prin-
cipaIs of our order It means that we
have won the good opinion of all clas-
scs who believe in equal rights and
equal burdens. 1t means that we are
dreaded and hated but respected by
the tax dodgers who have been de-
feated on their own chosen ground. IT
means that it has given US more faith
in ourselves and in each other. and as
a consequence that our order is today
broader, stronger and higher than
ever before in its history.
Again thanking you for your loyal
support. we are.
Fraternally yours,
