The STRIKE
IS STILL
UNSETTLED

Scranton, Sept. TO- Resumption Of
negotiations yesterday between Gov.
ernor Stone and officials representing
the operators, with view of ending
the strike, Is regarded here as sign
OF settlement in the near future.
This with existing rumors that no.
tees will be soon posted at all mines
announcing an advance in wages,
make the miners and merchants more
hopeful this morning In Lacawanna
valley, than for some time past in
spite OF the fact that the Governors
motion proved futile and superintend-
ents of the local colleries deny any
knowledge of posting notices. Lead
erS OF the united nine workers refuse
to talk on the situation for lack OF
official statements from headquarters.
Wilkesbarre Sept. l0-Mitchell this
morning denied any knowledge Of
plans for resumption of work. He
has not heard from Governor Stone as
to the result OF the latter's visit in
New York. He denies that In this
region they say they will not return
to work until ordered by Mitchell.
Plans to return at 10 per cent ad-
vance will be favorably considered if
the national president gives his con
sent but the miners wholly object to
the other plan contemplating their
return without any concessions to
await the good will or pleasure Of the
operators to concede something or ar
Nitrate.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN,

Tie missing trees in a young orchard
should be replaced with thrifty young
trees of choice varieties.
Wire is better than wood Of any kind
for a grape trellis. The tendrils get
hold of wire more readily.
1t takes plenty of sunlight to grow
and ripon the choicest apples, pears.
peaches. plums and cherries.
Burn all old rubbish, prunings, etc.
about the garden, orchard and small
fruit patch. They harbor vermin.
When the trees are growing in tops
so much as to exclude the sun, they
should be cut oft SO as to give a good
circulation Of air.
One of the very best implements to
use in cultivating the orchard is the
disk harrow. 1t can be run close to
the trees with very little risk Of injury.

PENNIES ON The CEILING.
4 New Method Of C0llecting CHARITY
Funds.

The landlords Of some of the public
houses In the poorest districts in the
east end Of London have invented u
new method Of collecting money for
the hospitals, says the London Graphic.
They recognize the fact that the aver
age man is usually charitably disposed
when he Is In public house, and So
they give him Il chance to do some
good with his money. Incidentally
they also furnish him with little
Innocent amusement. While the man
Is slipping his drink the landlord Os
tcntatiously takes a penny from his
till. He next produces a thin slice
from cork with tin tack run
through the center. He then places
the piece OF cork on the top of the
penny and wraps them in piece OF
thin colored paper. The paper is
screwed up tightly 70 that the point
OF the tin tack pierces It and is twistc~,
In the form of tail"
When the landlord has completed
these mysterious preparations, hs
throws the penny wrapped In the papes
up to the ceiling. The tack goes int
the ceiling and the penny in the col
ored paper remains up there. Some
times the tail Is cut into ribbons and
sometimes two or three pieces Of pape,
Of different colors are used. In any
case the customer wants ito have
try" The landlord furnishes the colk
and the tin tack and the colored paper.
The customer finds the penny. With q
very little practice any one can make
a penny stick on the ceiling. and so, in
course Of time the ceiling becomes gay
with colored streamers Of paper. When
the ceiling is full, the pennies are
pulled down and sent to a hospital,
and the fun begins all over again.

Got what He Gave.

An army officer tells the following
anecdote suggesting its application to
recent events: "A campaign against
the Sioux was on foot, and enc of the
columns was composed of three squad
rons of cavalry. There were present
as field officers a colonel, lieutenant
colonel AMI a major The colonel was
a pleasant, easygoing commander up
to certain limit. The lieutenant
colonel was a cantankerous, fault
finding man. and generally made him
self disagreeable to the major The
major had to take 1t, being the junior,
but waited for his opportunity. The
day came when on the march the lieu
tenant-colonel committed some fault
which reused the anger of the colonel,
and he was then and there, in the
presence of officers and enlisted men,
promptly brought to account. The
colonel spared no words, and the CEN
sure was complete. He then departed,
AMI after he had gone sufficient dis
