Two Popular Materials

Crepon and crepe de chine are two
materials that never go absolutely out
of fashion. but are always used. For
the moment they are not considered
especially smart or new, and conse-
ouently they are cheaper than when
they are in style. This is more in
reference to the crepon, for crepe de
chine has an immovable place in the
fancy of some women, who, like the
graceful, clinging folds of this fabric,
and who use it for day or evening
wear and always for tea gowns. A

CAR MEN ON STRIKE
Trouble in Union Pacific Shops
at Omaha Caused by Piece
Work System

Omaha, Neb.. Aug. 1S.-Two hundred
carmen, including carpenters. coach
builders and painters, employed in the
Union Pacific shops here, unexpectedly
went on strike today against the piece
work system. The leaders say that all
the carmen on the system will be asked
TO quit work. The action was decided
on at meeting held yesterday, but 1t
was kept secret until the men walked
out today. Some time ago the carmen
completed an agreement with the Union
Pacific road which included what was
known as the premium scale. and
which put the men on piece basis
The understanding was that no man
was to receive less than his time would
amount to at the regular hour wage
scale, and were to have premium for
extra work accomplished over certain
amount. The agreement created dis
satisfaction and internal friction in the
Carmen's union, and today's strike is
the result.
For the company the following state
ment was given out:
We entered into the contract with
the carmen in good faith on July for
a period of twelve months. and. so far
as We know, everything was satisfac-
tory No grievance committee has Wis
tied us. and if the carmen will not
stand by their agreement, there is moth
ing left for US to do. We do not ex-
pect men at other points to Qiut work
without notice. and to stand by their
contract until new one is made. The
effect of the strike here will cause little
trouble, as there is little work to be
done at this season There are enough
men left to meet the present require
ments, and new men for car shops are
not hard TO obtain"

stories as to what actually brought on
the clash, but just before the deputies
entered the place a shot was heard ana
Sharp dropped to the ground The bull
let entered his body close to his heart,
and he died almost instantly Wit
nesSeS say that the shooting was done
by McElmoyle, and that he stood only
six or seven feet from Sharp when he
fired his revolver. Only one shot was
fired.
The deputies Immediately withdrew
to the coIliery. and a large crowd gath
cred about the place. When il was
learned that Sharp was dead there was
the greatest Indignation among the
strikers and other tOwnspeOple, and for
a time it looked as though serious
trouble would follow. Cooler heads
among the mine workers, however, pre-
vailed upon the crowd to disperse, urg-
ing the argument that if there is any

persed and the town soon Gained

both men were undoubtedly very tired.
and had just been separated by the
referee. Root started in with a left
jab for Gardeners face, and started
back TO avoid a return for the wind
that always followed. Root misjudged
the distance in retreating, which cost
him the fight.
Gardner, following with head down,
sent right and left full-aTm upper cuts
for Roots stomach. His last lead hit
the mark as squarely as if aimed at
a stationary point, and Root sank to
the floor as if hit by some powerful
battering ram. Greggains rushed into
the ring, and. picking Gardner up, EN-
braced the winner over the man who
had lowered his colors scarcely two
years ago.
The fight, from start to finish. was
marked by fast and furious work on
the part of both men. At different
sta ges of the game it looked like either
mans battle, then punch would for
a time weaken one of the contestants
to the advantage of the other. The
minutes rest, however, brought up
either man as fresh as ever, and he
would again rush matters as if anxious
to settle the fight in one blow.
Root seemed the cooler from the
start until the finish, and while at
times he seemed somewhat anNlou, yet
that look of self-confidence never left
him. His blows did not seem to land
as fairly as those delivered by Gard
ner. but they did they had plenty of
steam behind.
Root was the aggressor the greater
part of the time. and depended almost
entirely on left jabs to do the work.
He bored into the Lowell man with a
vicious Iunge, and almost always fol-
lowed the lead with a right swing for
the jaw Gardner, on the other hand,
depended on wide swings when he led,
many of which went wild. In the clinch
