When Marsery Lost Her Pennies, She
Did Better Than Cry.

Little Margery had two whole
pennies Of her very own. Father
had given them to her that very
morning, and now the question was
what should be done with them.
Should she buy doll? She had
seen some very nice ones in shop.
They had lovely cheeks and beauti-
full brown eyes, with ringlets to
match; but, then, even two whole
pennies mightn't be enough to buy
them, for they were real beauties.
Perhaps it would be better to get
two penny tops, and then she could
give Bobby one, and they could have
some fun together with them, or
some chocolates. It really was a
long time since she had tasted any
so long that she almost forgot what
they were like. But chocolate drops
would soon be eaten up, and then
there would be nothing left Of her
two pennies.
No; she would not decide too
quickly. She would go down to the
village and have good look round.
So she put on her hat and ran to-
ward the village. Before she had
gone very far she stopped at a pond
BY the roadside to watch some ducks
which were swimming about on the
water.
There was little railing round
this pond, and Margery climbed on
to it and then felt in her pocket to
see if she could find some crumbs to
give them; but, alas, in pulling out
her handkerchief she pulled out her
pennies, too, and down they fell to
the bottom of the pond.
Poor little Margery! What do
you think she did?
cob, cry" you will say. No;
she got down from the railing and
turned rather sorrowful face
homeward. AS she went along she
said to herself: "Never mind, Mar
gerry. It's better'n if you had tum-
bled in instead of the pennies"
And | think she was right. Don't

AID is REFUSED
UNITED MINE WORKERS IN oP-
POSITION TO THE STRIKE OF
STATIONARY FIREMEN.
LATTER MUCH PROVOKED

Firemen Who Are Affiliated With the
Mine Workers Union Are Ordered to
Remain at Work, but Many of Them
Have Been Induced to Quit the Or
aanization-No Change Apparent in
the Steel Strike Situation.
Scranton, Pa, July 19.-The firemen
who are members Of the United Mine
Workers will not be called out to sup
port the men who have now tied up
half the mines Of the Lackawanna val
ley and rendered idle at least 10000
men in the territory from Pittston to
Forest City. This was the outcome OF
an informal conference here between
District President Nichols Of the Mine
Workers and State President Mullahy
of the Stationary Firemen's assoc1a-
ton. The f1remen are provoked over
this phase of the situation and are get
ting their fellow workme0 to give up
their membership in the miners
union and join their own trades organ
ization. It is asserted that LOO men
will do so before the day ends.
The. situation among the idle mines
is practically unchanged. The Della
ware and Hudson company got the
Won Storch colliery into operation dur
ing the morning with the cooperation
CT the miners who decided to go
work and to help man the boilerrooms.
None of the other companies show any
increase in the number Of mines work
ing. The indications are that other
local unions of the Mine Workers will
take action similar to that of the Won
Storch men. At the Offices of the sew
eral general superintendent in Scran-
ton there is buoyant feeling that the
strike cannot continue much longer.
Meanwhile coal shipments from this
region are being stopped in order to
be ready for any emergency that may
arise.
Later the executive board Of District
No. /, United Mine Workers Of Amer
lea, adopted resolution providing that
all stationary f1remen, members Of the
mine workers organization who have
quit work because of the strike Of the
International Association of Station
airy Firemen, shall be ordered back to
work by District President Nichols.
Many of these men had already de-
serted to join their trades organiza-
ton. The action thus clearly defines
the position of the United Mine Work
ers and emphasizes the decision OF
Monday that there will be no sympar
thetic strike ordered.

Why Spiders Are Not insects.

The spider is not an insect,
though probably nine people out of
ten would class it under this term.
With scorpions and mites spiders
form class in the animal kingdom
known as arachnida. This name is
derived from a mythical parsonage
called Arachne, the daughter of a
purple dyer of Lydia, who was
tabled to have challenged Minerva
to trial Of skill in spinning. So
indignant was the goddess at this
act of boldness that she forthwith
transformed the hapless challenger
into a spider, presumably in order
that she might have the best posi-
BILE opportunity of practicing the art
on which she prided herself so
much.
Spiders differ from insects in five
main particulars. Their eyes are
simple instead of compound, they
have eight legs in place of six, they
do not pass through the metamor-
phoses which are characteristic OF
insects, they have no antennae, and
their breathing is accomplished by
means Of organs which combine the
functions Of lungs and gills, instead
Of by tubes per7ading their bodies.
These points of distinction are suffi-
Gent to determine the fact that it is
impossible to class spiders as insects

STEEL STRIKE SITUATION
Efforts Confined to Organizing Nom
Union Plants.

Efforts Confined to Organizing Non.
Union Plants.
Pittsburg, July 19.-There were no
features visible upon the horizon OF
the strike situation during the morn
ing which in any way indicated when
ing forces will be reached. While
there is no doubt that the Amalgamat-
ed people are making strenuous eff
forts towards organizing those mills
that are acknowledged to be non-union
and are meeting with some success,
the other side is not resting and is
endeavoring to Illustrate these efforts
at every point.
The AmaIgamated people denied
that the mills at Wellsville could be
started up, but in spite of this asser-
ton dispatches from that place report
at least partial resumption. 1t ap-
pears, however, that the officials OF
the Amalgamated association will
make a strong play by holding mass
meeting at Wellsville, by which
means they hope to bring all wavering
forces over to their side.
AS to talk of mediation on the part
of the Ohio state board of arbitration
nothing definite has been accomplish
ed as yet. Secretary Joseph Bishop OF
the arbitration board has offered to
mediate, and President Shaffer has
admitted his willingness to submit
the matter at issue to mediation. h.
not to arbitration. President Shaffef
says there the situation rests for the
| present until Mr.. Bishop has been able
to confer with the other members Of
the arbitration board upon the stand
| he has taken.
