up an establishment in Eldridge street. On the floor above was a counterfeit
 ers' den, which was raided only week
 before the police got the beggars,
 Here the old beggars organized a sort
 of beggars' securities company. A new
 crowd was to do the begging, while the old ''grafters" were to get the booty It was one of the new beggars whose | crude methods betrayed the secret of the gang. He told where the headquar- ters were, and warrants was secured against the woman for it was known that if an attempt was made to arrest her there would be a small-sized riot. When the place was raided, therefore, one of the charity organization society agents suggested to Mary that she come to court when the case was heard. After the leaders had been taken away, the 'grafters' who were left took eye rything the girl had and left her conn pletely without resources. But she would not desert her real friends, so she marched boldly into court next morning.
 Charity Agent James Forbes recom- mended that she be taken into custody, and this was done. The magistrate was told that the girl seemed to have many good qualities, and it was therefore de- cided to commit her to Bedford reform atory for three years, although the sen tence is really indeterminate. In case of good behavior she may be discharged after a year. When she was sentenced she sobbed pitifully and asked to be al- lowed to see her mother. Her mother was sent for, but was said to be work ing as a washer woman in South Brooklyn and could not be found. Next day the girl was sent to Bedford She had been persuaded by a charity or ganization society agent that it was the best thing for her.
 q hope the place will be happy place to live" she said to this agent. T hope it will show me that girl can be happy in this world. Life hasn't been worth much to me so far. New York Times.

 Hazleton, Pa, June 6.--Riot procla- | nations were posted late this afternoon everywhere on the property of the
 Lehigh Valley Coal Co.,, at Yorktown. The mine workers were advised to-
 night by Sheriff Gombert of Carbon | county that the commissions of the for | ty-four deputies sworn in by him at
 Yorktown during the last two days
 have been revoked as requested by Dis | trict President Duffy. Most of these deputies were picked from the imported elements stationed at the mine. A special train with steam up is at Roan Junction ready to carry a car-
 load of officers to any part of the dis | trict
 Shamokin, Pa, June 6.-The Locust Gap and Locust Spring collieries own ed by the Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron company and when in operation employing 1,144 men and boys, began flooding to-day because of the sub-bosses quitting work rather than keep up steam for the pumps.
 Sheriff Deitrick of Northumberland county was asked this afternoon by the Mineral Railroad and Mining company to protect non-union men from strikers who pelted them with stones to-day while they were at work, The sheriff has taken no action, If the sheriff makes no move the court will be re- quested to compel him to swear in dep- uties. If the court refuses Governor Stone will then be appealed to.
 Harrisburg, Pa, June 6-The miners in the Lykens Valley region threaten to make trouble if the pumpmen and en- gineers do not quit work. During thet past twenty-four hours operators and other mine officials have been burned in effigy in Lykens, Williamstown and Wlckonisco.
 When the men at work left their work at quitting time to-day and started for their homes they were hoot- ed and jeered by the strikers and spoil ed eggs were hurled at them. The an- ger of a serious affray was imminent, but cooler counsel prevaile. Sheriff Reif sent here for deputies this after noon but his clerks could find nobody willing to serve.
 At Williamstown the strikers number over 900 and like number are out at Lykens. Several of those now work ing are alleged to have been members of the Trrited Mine Works, The feeling against these men is bitter and an out break may occur at any time.

A ladybird can travel 2O.0O0.000,00C
times its own length in an hour. In
that time a sloth can only travel fifty
times its own length.
There is no country in the world In
which the raven is not found to be ma

ornithoIogists which is Of such cosmo-

Only one existing reptile can sustain
itself in the air. This is the flying

The common house fly usually pro
