A CALL FOR MEN.

The moment of duty is the moment of
need.
Then away with that sham, the conven-
fence creed!
When pillows are high in tempestuous
roll,
IT'S the man of the bravest, most heroic
soul,
That stands firm at his post, at the helm
mid the storm,
And though wild tempests rage, falls
not till the calm,
To stem angry blasts with courage and
deed
The moment of duty is the moment of
need.

Not Much Doing On the Surface
In Connection With the
Steel Strike.
PEACEMAKlhG EFFORTS TALKED ABOUT.
The Combine, 1t IL said, Will Make
Aggressive Attempts to Start
More Mills This Week-TyvO More
Mills at Painters Put in Opera
tiOn.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 27.-Develop-
ments in the steel strike are meager.
Probable renewal of efforts at peace
making by disinterested parties was
again discussed, but nothing definite
could be learned.
Peacemakers Busy.
Henry M. White, of the Garment
Workers of America, and Ralph M.
Easley, of the National Civic Fedora
ton, who took part in the conference
in this city last week, left for the
east Sunday night, and it is reported
that they went to New York to make
another attempt to have negotiations
between the contending parties re-
opened. President Shaffer, however,
says that he knows nothing of the
proposed venture, and his association
has authorized no new steps for
peace.
The Combines Intentions.
The combine, it is said, intends to
make aggressive attempts to start
more plants this week. They were
successful in putting two more mills
in operation at Painters Monday
morning, and now have four mills,
with force of 400 men at work. The
mills started were No. bar mill and
No. Z cotton tie mill. The manage
ment says that the work being turned
out is up to the standard and is be-
an nlo ha l,.ly Of "a
officials announced that he had three
more crews engaged, but that they
would not go to work until all the
men necessary to operate the six
mills had been secured, and then the
plant would run at night. He said
he was almost certain the entire
works would be running at night be-
fore the end of this week. More men
were taken into the Star plant, of
the American Tin Plate Co., and at
the Lindsay & McCutcheon works, of
the Steel Hoop Co. These mills, the
combine officials say, they expect to
have in full operation before Satur-
day.
Impossible, Say the Strikers.
The strike managers assert that
the resumption of these plants in full
will be an impossibility, and say the
claims of the steel people are not
borne out by the facts. They say they
| scored a victory over the manage
ment of the Star mills by preventing
seven men from entering the plant.
and that the plant is not running at
all now.
Nice-President Pierce of the Anal
gamated association said there were
less men working in the local mills
Monday morning than for over a
week. President Shaffer had heard
nothing from Chicago up to noon. Mr..
Tighe, he said, did not go out there
to get the men to strike, but just 20
attend the meeting.
Affairs at cKeespOrt.
Advises from McKeesport are to the
effect that no attempt was made TO
start the Demmler works Sunday
night. The furnaces were fired and
the plant lighted, but no men ap.
peared. Ten regular policemen and a
large force of pickets guarded the
mill all night, but there was no dis
order. The situation at all points is
reported quiet and no trouble is ex-
pCcted.

CHORUS.
They we're both rum votes,
And sanctioned the license plan,
But one was cast by cunning old
brewer,
And one by a Sunday-school man.
The sunday school man; no man could
be truer,
Kept busy all summer denouncing the
brewer;
But his fervor cooled off with the change
of the weather
And late in the autumn, they voted to
gether.
The Sunday school man had always
been noted
For fighting saloons, except when he
voted;
He piled up his prayers with holy per-
fiction,
Then knocked them all down on the day
of election.
The cunning old brewer was cheerful
and mellow;
Said he. IL admire that Sunday-school
fellow;
He's true to his church; to his party he's
truer;
He talks for the Lord, but he votes for
the brewer"

tiOns to the Triennial knights
Templar COncIave Arrived.

Louisville, KY, Aug. 27.-The rush
of visitors to the triennial conclave
of Knights Templar in this city be-
gan in earnest and by night the Ken
lucky metropolis was completely in
the hands of the invaders.
Trains poured into the city all day
bringing sir knights and their ladies.
AS the trains travelled in sections and,
therefore, proceeded with unusual
care, they were generally behind
their schedules. The streets were
filled with marching detachments and
the air fairly trembled with the music
of numberless brass bands which es-
corted the various communicates to
their headquarters.
Gorgeous Decorations.
Scarcely a building is without its
streamers or gorgeous dress of
bunting. Even shop windows are
trimmed in masonc emblems, and
street takers, not to be outdone, have
painted Maltese crosses on the toy
balloons they hawk about. At local
headquarters the opinion is expressed
that the conclave, which begins Tues
day, will prove the most notable
ever held. 1t is estimated that there
are fully $4,000 visitors in the city
already.
Arriving Communicates.
The Chicago communicates, travel
ing in trains of five sections, arrived
at noon and made an imposing sped
taele as they marched to the custom,

quarters. Other communicates ar
rived from Kansas City, Charleston, S.

other states. Many visitors came on
regular trains and joined their com
rades here. The Pennsylvania, nli-
nois, Wisconsin and Ohio delegations
are numerically the strongest here

The Work of the Day.

that he will come on September 20. The press
