WESTERN COAL STRIKE
TIE-UP OF MINING OPERATIONS
MORE COMPLETE THAN EXPECTED.
Alleged Attempt to Blow Up a Power
House-Single Men Leaving the
Colorado Fields.

DENVER, Col. Nov. 10.-The tie-up in
the Colorado coal fields, in consequence of
the strike order issued by President Mitch
ell, of the United Mine Workers of Ameri-
ca, is more extensive than operators or
union leaders had expected.
In Las Anemus county, the principal bat
tleground, the union leaders assert that
only 100 of the 5000 men employed in the va
rious camps arc working to-day The op-
orators, however, declare that they still
have about 1,0o0 men in the mines. In
Huerfano county there are 1880 miners, of
whom more than 1000 are already on strike
and the union leaders are confident that
they will succeed in inducing the remainder
to come out. Practically all the 500 mil, .rs
in Fremont county are idle. In the north
ern field 1850 miners are on strike, and
about 400 are working on small independ-
ent properties at which all the demands OF
the men have been conceded. In western
Colorado about 1000 miners are working,
but organizers busy among them
Union leaders at Trinidad say that so per
cent of the miners in New Mexico have
gone out In Wyoming and Utah the strike
has not vet become effective. No evidences
of disorder have been reported in the coal
region.
TRINIDAD, Col, Nov. 1O.-Sheriff Clark
returned tonight from Hastings, where he
investigated the attempt to blow up the
power house of the Victor Fuel Company
and stated that no damage was done ex-
cept the breaking of few windows in the
building. Eight extra deputies have been
put on guard, and no further trouble is an
tieipated. Miners have arrived here in
droves to-day from the various camps
Nearly all single men are leaving for other
coal fields The sheriffs Office reports no
further trouble in the county tonight and
that the situation can be handled without
the aid of troops. The miners union es-
tablished camp of several hundred tents
in Trinidad to-day. where all idle men can
eat and sleep. A fierce snowstorm is rag
ing throughout this section tonight.

WITHOUT FIRING A SHOT.


COLON, Nov. 10.-The steam launch sent
10 Bocas del Toro Thursday last to capture
that place in the name of the new Repub-
lie of Panama has returned here and the
officers report that the place was cap
tured and the flag hoisted without shot
being fired No difficulties whatever were
encountered. The majority of the officials
of Bocas del Toro are natives Of Panama
and they expressed themselves rejoiced
at the course affairs had taken on the
isthmus. The people OF the town were
jubilant at the news and only a few per-
sons were found to be dissatisfied with the
situation. These latter were brought to CO.
ion but not as prisoners.
The provisional government of Panama
has received a telegram from President
Marroquin, of the Republic of Colombia,
giving assurances that the Panama canal
bill would most certainly pass Congress
next August and that General Reyes was
mis- way TO the isthmus to make pro-
posals looking to peace and the saving or
the national honor. The provisional gov
ernment has sent letter TO General Reyes
which will reach him on his arrival at
Savanilla advising that ii is useless for
him to come to Panama, as his mission is
hopeless one.
The United States steamship Atlanta has
just arrived from her cruise along the
coast.

college athletics:
Sly and underhanG practices are eneour-

To the average schoolboy the college ath-
lete is a hero and this man. 1 regret to say,
often spends his time in teaching this de-
ceit to lads of the preparatory schools. 1

hours TO teaching young followers how
they may ceverly disobey rules of the game
without risk os detection. and think | am

ONE SMALL GUN ENOUGH.
How the NashviIIe's Commander Pre-
pared for Action with the Cartagena.

NEW YORK, Nov. 10.-When the steamer
Yucatan, which arrived here to-day from
Colon, left that port but little was known
of the revolution in Panama beyond the
fact that rumors were afioat that 1t would
shortly take place.
Joseph Peet, the Panama agent of the Pa
cifc Steam Navigation Company, who was
one of the passengers, said he knew that
there was trouble coming before he left.
The declaration, in his opinion, would have
been made before had 1t not been for the
arrival of the Colombian gunboat Carta-
gena.
William Demstet an engineer from Glas-
cow, who is returning to England, said that
the prison there was full of civil officers.
when the Nashville arrived he said,
''for some reason the Colombian gunboat
Cartagena cleared her decks as though
for action. Some one told this to the cap
tain of the Nashville. 1t was given as
warning. but the reply Of the captain is said
to have been made without seeming to have
been impressed The captain pointed to
enc OF his small guns, and, ordering it
aimed at the Colombian vessel said that he
thought that would be enough"

Ehrstein spent the greater part of yester-

LETTER TO B. B. TOOTHAKER
BELFAST, MAINE.


Dear Sir: Here's what "wears longer
means.
D. T. McGown, Cooperstown, n. Y,
built house in 'S5 and painted DevOe.
The paint lasted ten years.
A year or two later, neighbor built a
house and painted it lead and oil. The
neighbours house was reprinted twice in
the same time.
This looks as if the neighbours house
was painted three times in eight or nine
years, and McGown's once in ten years.
We are not quite sure-we tell the tale as it
comes to US.
1t is enough to say that Devoe Lead and
Zinc lasts twice as long as lead and oil
alone. The reason: white lead is soft and
chalks off zine is hard; and, when thor
oughly ground into the lead, prevents its
chalking and makes it more durable.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvOE & Co.
Is New York.
P.S. Mason & Hall sell our paint.
