The oldest bell-tower In the United
States is not in any Of our Eastern
colonial cities, but, according to report,
in Tacoma. Wash. The church was
built in 1873, but the age of the tower,
by fairly conservative estimate, is
at least 900 years. The fact is that the
tower is the lofty stump Of a giant
tree. Ii is now covered with ivy.

Rumors that cOllieries are about to

that such stories have been i'm exist
ence Tor more than two months and vet
not colliery has been started. The
mine workers officials continue to OK
press themselves as confident of sue

II is fully expected in this vicinity
mat the suspension of mining will last

tude of the strikers. Local unions i'm
all sections are meeting every day.
and the men are voting to stand to.
gether to the end. The mine workers
ofhcials, from President Mitchell down.
are all in the field, working to keep
the men together and prevent a posi-
BILE break.
The peace of the Mahanoy valley.
particularly Shenandoah, remains un-
broken. If any further disorder oc-
ours, it is looked for at places not Gov
cred by troops.
The national guard officers are keep
ing an eye on the situation to the north.
in the vicinity of Wilkesbarre. where
there has been some violence during
the past week.
The likelihood of the mine workers
strike continuing for some considera-
Die time has led the officers and men
of the national guard in camp here to
believe they are in the field for long
period. 1t is probable the militia will
be kept on duty to the end of the
strike. This is not welcomed by the
citizen soldiers because they are sacri-
ticing personal interests in being com
PEELED to remain away from their bust
