 STRIKE AT WHITE HOUSE.
Painters and Decorators Called Out.

Painters and Decorators Called Out.
 Washington, Sept. 16.-Thirty mem bers of the Brotherhood of Painters, Decorators, and Paperhangers, at work on the White House improvements, and affiliated with the American Federation. of Labor, were called out on strike this morning by Daniel Lear, the Washing ton agent. This was done because four painters belonging to the Amalgamated Association of Painters of New York city are employed on contract in the White House.
 Bitterness between rival organiza- tions thus threaten the progress of the White House work. The contractors profess to have no idea how closely other labor organizations here are af- filiated with the Brotherhood. The thirty strikers have no fault to find with Norcross Brothers, the contractors who are rebuilding the interior of the Whiet House, or with S. F. French, the firms representative. Their grievance is solely against four Amalgamated painters, who are working on a small contract wlniel14s was awarded to MT. Marcot, a. New York painter. Norcross

Brothers have the contract for prac- tically the entire work of rebuilding the interior of the White House, but a few details were reserved by the architects, of which MT McKim is the head, to be let out to other specialists, Two of these commissions were placed in New York, one with Marcot, and the other with Mir. Hostetter. The latter, recog- nizing the bitter antagonism between the AmaIgamated and Brotherhood Painters, brought only Brotherhood men here with him, and six of them are now employed at the White House.

A New Fashion.

Many men and women like to waltz. not for the dance, but for the posi,ion and he chance to hug and be hugged. In the east fash ion has decreed that sitting" out q waltz Is the correct thing. The position is the same and the hug ging facilities vastly improved. You sit beside the lady, your arm around her waist. your left hand holds her right, her left hand on your shoulder, her head resting lovingly on your bosOm-and the music goes on the same. This is much better than galloping a mile to get a hug. There certainly is no more harm sitting on a sofa hugging to music than rushing around and squeezing the lady every time you turn the corner.
 The above item from one of Oul exchanges seems almost too good to be true. We hope that the new fashion will travel West soon When i, reaches Valdez, look out for dances every night.

Chamber of Commerce.

The Chamber of Commerce met last Friday night in the court room and .ransac.,d considerable business. Th.re Sas a iarge a. tendance, bu, mos, of those present were miners and lrospectors, only a few of the merchants of the town having interest enough ia its well fare to attend the meeting. Quite a number oi strangers arc taking an interest in public affairs. and no doubt q good. live organization will be the result.
 It was decided by the Goa nbcr to admit all new applicants free of charge during the present mon'h, and it is hoped that a large num- ber will take advantage of this offer and become members. The follow ing members were elected: Sam. $. Lynch, Peter Herbert, R. H. Par ker, Dr. John Tiedman, B. K. Skin- ner, w. H. Hawes, A. K. Crawford, J. F. Bradley, A. Amman, E. G. Ames, A. J. Kelsey. Chas. West, Chas. Rudolph and Willcughby Clark.
 The ma,;er of the payment of Rudolph Bros'. bill for building bridges and rail the past summer came up before the Chamber again and discussed at some length. The contractors claimed that they had tXl4nG,d over $4m on the trail and jerry. and had moi received cen, from ,nll charges as hey had ascer.ainrd il,ai 1t would no, pay to run ,thc ferry, il,c travel not be- ing steady, and ih,y oft, red 10 lake in settlement the $lS5 that had hecn -uhscril.cd hy the citizens. Rndoil'h Bros. agreed to place the ferry on the cable and turn it over To the Chamber, which proposition was rccep.ed and motion was made and carried to pay them $l S5.
 President Brown named the foI- lowing committee, as he had given oiice that he would do at the pulp lie n.tc'ing las week. Committee ,o draw up local laws and regula- tons for miners and prosrectors in the Valdez Recording District: Vim. T. Scott, Dan. Grcnnig, John Beck, Chas. Schlosser and Wm. f.nIcai
