EACH CARRIED A SMALL FLAG.


LEBANON. Pa. Aug pa committee
of the striking employees of the American
Iron and Steel Manufacturing Company
called at the office of Manager Lord to-day
and demanded that the colored nonunion
workmen from Reading and other men
who had been sent here be relieved and the
old hands taken back. This refused.
The committee then returnd and reported
the matter to their leaders, and a few mo-
ments later the men still at work, some
1,S00, were told to come out. The order was
obeyed almost to a man, and promptly at
o'clock all left the big plant. Each carried
a small American flag. When the men filed
out they We're greeted by their friends on
the outside. In the crowd were a large num-
Der of women. Only the foremen Of a few
departments and few blacksmiths re-
manned at work.
The plant, when in full operation, en-
ployes nearly 5000 men and boys. When the
first strike occurred, about sixteen weeks
ago about SOC men quit. The others
mained at work. Now the entire plant is
idle with the exception OF that portion
manned by the newcomers.

OTHER WILD CREATURES.
Spoke Briefly at Newport, N. H., in the
Morning, and Scorned Umbrellas
to Keep Of the Rain.

NEWPORT. n. H.. Aug. 29.-President
Roosevelt was to-day entertained in a
manner to his liking Instead of making
numerous addresses, meeting committees
and indulging in handshaking, he plunged
into the forest of the late Austin Corbin' s
preserves in the Croydon mountain region
and hunted big game, and just before dark
succeeded in shooting a boar. In few re-
marks preliminary to his talk here he had
disclaimed any intention to go hunting but
Senator Proctor, who, like the President,
is a good shot, induced him to alter his de-
termination.
The President arrived shortly after 10
o'clock this forenoon, and after being
driven through the principal streets de-
livered a short address in the public square.
The town had an air of expectancy, since
the Presidents coming had been looked on
as the most notable event in its history
No sooner had he concluded his address
than rain began falling, and the President
and those of his party got a thorough
drenching. The President refused all offers
of umbrellas, saying that his macintosh
would be sufficient to protect him.
The arrangements included a visit to the
Corbin mansion, where Mrs. Corbin, widow
of Austin Corbin, received the President.
After a short stay the long procession of
carriages moved over to the home of
George S. Edgill, who. with Mrs. Edgill,
entertained the party at luncheon.
The President was given hours start
ahead of his party in order that he might
VISIT the clubhouse and don a hunting cos
tune. Several times the party caught up
with him, and finally he and Senator Proc
tor entered the woods and became lost TO
view Darkness was coming on when the
party returned here. and soon after their
arrival Secretary Cortelyou telephoned in
that the President had shot a boar Upon
their return from the woods they spent the
night at the clubhouse, and it is not i'm
probable that the President will try again
for large game early in the morning.
During the morning the members of the
Presidents party put in their time fishing
and boating on Lake Sunapee. or in various
other ways enjoying themselves. 1t was
nearly the time scheduled for the train tc
leave Newbury when the President and
Secretary Hay reached the station. Sen
ator Redfield Proctor, of Vermont, was
waiting at the station. He is to accom-
pany the party through Vermont The
meeting was most cordial between Senator
Proctor and the President.

who are doing moderately large business,
