Of a fve-mile motor cycle handicap at

Establlsh Industrial Enterprises.

One hundred and twenty five men have ap

There is half million dollars of idle money
in Snyder county. Read the bank statements

there is easily half million dollars idle. Hun
dreds of men, boys and girls can be secured who

Why not invest this capital in industrial en-

These enterprises will give the banks and every

we import money. We produce from the soil,

tocoRDING TO statements made IN
New York. there is likely to be scarcity
orwork in that city during the coming
win, and consequently distress among
art ans by reason of the determination
or ,otractors TO take no more contracts
until some definite understanding exists
between themselves and the labor unions
This action has been brought about by
the apparent ascendancy of "Sam'
Parks at the Kansas City convention OF
the International Association of Bridge
and Structural Iron Workers. The con-
tractors say Parks will be responsible for
niue, suffering among laboring people
I'm New York in the near future. 1t
is slil that. but for Parks and his
np',n. thousands Of mechanics in the
building uade. of New York would be
earning all the way from So to Sl2 or
sl5 q day by working overtime. Some
who are working are earning these wages
now. flready grocers, dry good dealers
and others in New York are feeling the
effects of the depression. 1t is asserted
that similar conditions will eventually
prevail in other cities, and that the
coming winter will bring with it suffer
iny to thousands who during the past
few years have had steady work at re-
munerative wages. A contractor IN
New York yesterday said "While the
labor unions are run by individuals like
Parks. who are followed like sheep by
the others, stable conditions are impos-
sible."

Lost Lives in Burning Hotel.

Rochester, N. H., Sept. 25.-The
Hotel Brunswick was burned early this
morning, Two lives were lost and four
persons are unaccounted for. There
were between forty and fifty guests in
the house and besides the dead all Of
them except four are accounted for this
morning, and as no trace of their bodies
can be found in the ruins, which have
been thoroughly searched, it is be-
lieved that they escaped safely. The
two who persisted were Mr.. and Mrs.
Harwood, Concord, n. II. There were
many narrow escapes, number of the
guests saving themselves by jumping
from windows. The property loss is
estimated at $15, 1000.

Strike on.

New York, Sept 25.-The en-
ployes of the North Jersey Street Rail
way Co. at Newark, n. j., who went on
strike last night, returned to work this
morning. The company signed no agree
ment, but promised to consider changing
the present Objectionable "split run"
system. The partial trolley strike on
the public service corporation lines last
night did not extend to Jersey City, but
it caused excitement among the trolley
employees. The men asked for p cents
an hour, continuous employment and a
shorter working day. The officials of the
corporation refused positively to grant a
recognition of the union and to agree to
take back discharged men, but left the
question of increased wages to further
consideration.
