Bilbao, Spain, Nov. 2.-Never in the
history of Bilbao has there been a
strike of such momentous conse-
quences to the iron workers Of Spain
as that which terminated Sunday. The
miners will no longer be compelled to
live cooped up in the barracks pro-
,vided by the mining companies and
they will no longer be forced to pur-
chase food from the company stores,
which food has often been declared
unfit to eat; instead OF being paid by
! the month, they will hereafter he paid
every week. They have been refused,
however, the right to organize a union,
and It is believed that this will lead
to trouble in the future.
Thirty-fve thousand men were in
yolved in the strike, which was not

Bresnahan's Batting Advice.

Bresnahan's Batting Advice.
In an article recently written on the
science of batting, Roger Bresnahan,
the New York Nationals heavy hitting
center ielder|gives some advice which
should be valuable to amateur players.
He says:
1.-THE man who stands close to the
plate while at bat and bears In mind
that every pitcher, no matter who he is
or what his reputation may be, must
put the ball over the rubber, can, with
practice, become a good and, I may
say, a dangerous hitter even if he has
not got the natural ability of some of
the great batters of the past and pres
emit. One very bad fault many young
players have il the habit Of pulling
away from the plate, as 1t is called,
when a ball looks as though 1t might
possibly hit the batter. How many
times have you seen a man step back
from a curved ball which a second aft
er '.cut the plate' and was called a
strike, much to his discontinue? The
remedy for this, I think, is a simple
one, which can be mastered by any
young mar possessing the necessary
confidence. 1t is simply to step for
ward and meet the ball before it cross
es the plate. In this way the ball is al
ways in front Of the batter, and he is,
SO to speak, on top Of 1t before it
breaks"

bors at 4 p. m. A hot dinner of three

ready for the evening meeting. There
are to be no afternoon meetings.
There will be street meetings in vari-

held by the Salvation Army, >but will
be similar to them in that there will
be speaking, praying and singing Of
