The hay Swindling story from
Steclville has proved to be il can
ard. \ farmer in that town
bought ii bale of hay recently in
which he found $l7.2j in silver
coins. 1t was alleged that the
nun selling the fodder had tried
to swindle somebody by weighing
up silver in the place of hay, when
hay was SO high last winter. II
is now reported that some green
backs were also found in the bale,
which wipes out the suspicion that
there was any attempt at adultcr-
alton.

elOquently reflected in some Of the
music which he has written. This is
particularly so with the Sy mphony

IHEATRICALS.
THE SP A n OF LIFE.

With an entirely new equipment
of special scenery, mechanical and
electrical effects and one of the
strongest companies ever seen in
melodrama, that perennially popu-
lar play, ''The Span of Life" will be
the attraction at the Opera House
tonight, and it will be presented
by an excellent company and with
close attention to detail. The action
Of the piece takes place in England
and Africa. The first scenes are on
the coast of Devonshire. At the
opening of the play an Intellectual
effort is made to blight the existence
of Richard Blunt, the hero, who,
with his wife, goes to the diamond
fields Of Africa. There he is houn d.
ed by an old enemy, Dunstan
Leech, who has taken up the horri-
bic calling of a slave trader Aided
by Arab followers, Leech seizes
Blunt's wife and child, but they are
set at liberty. In the effort to escape
Leech and his Arabs, the mother
fees through an African wilderness
In her flight she reaches a gorge;
finding the bridge gone she resolves
to slay her child and commit suicide.
From this appalling situation she
is freed by three friends appearing
on the opposite side of the chasm--
humble followers of her husband,
but none the less her oic men. Hay-
ing been formerly acr obats in a
circus, they hit upon the remark
able device of entwin ing themselves
lengthwise, then tlinging their inter
locked bodies across the chasm,
forming a living bridge for the
imperiled mother and her child to
cross to safety.

WILL STRIKE TO-DAY.


The union machinists employed at the
this morning for an increase in wages Eff
forts have been made by the Machinists'
Union for some time to make a settlement
with this firm, and a strike has been held
in allegiance for more than week. At the
meeting of the union last night it was de-
cided to order the men out this morning.
While the recent demand of the machin-
lists for an advance in wages is the direct
cause of the strike, there are other griev-
ances that have engendered feeling in the
union. The union once had practically all
of the machinists employed at the plant in
the organization, but Of late they have been
dropping out. The explanation of this is
said TO be that the firm offered better in
ducements and showed favors to those who
withdrew from the union. There are sixteen
union men out of the twenty-six employed
at the plant. Last night ii could not be said
whether any OF the nonunion men will
strike with the union men.
The hammermen employed at the Indian
apolis Drop Forging Company went on
strike yesterday morning in sympathy with
the striking machinists and because they
were required TO handle work done by non
union men, One of the men was asked TO
work on set of dies made by nonunion
machinists and he refused. He was then
told 10 do the work or quit. He took the
latter course and the union then called all
the hammermen out. The unionists say
this practically ties UP the plant but Fer
manned the machines and work will con-
tinue
