search Of men to fill the places of the
strikers. Four train loads of new en-
ployes were taken to the yards before
darkness set in to join the non union
men already established inside the
plants. Stockades have been erected
at all the different plants to protect
men whose work exposes them to dan
ger from mob violence. All through
the stock yards there were not only
evidences of preparation for long
and bitter struggle, but superintend.
ents of the packing establishm
police officers and union leaders gave
expression to anticipation of troublous
! times to come.
Chief fof-Police O'Neil. who spent
the day making plans for tomorrow,
said: NO one knows what will
happen. The opportunity is here for
one OF the greatest labor contests in
the country and apparently there is
no hope of averting it. The police
will be able to handle the situation,
no matter what happens.
Chicago, July 27.--Ljttle if any
advantage was gained by either side
in the stock yards strike yesterday,
and there was no hope last night of
any immediate settlement of the diff
Guilty.
Realizing that they have one of the
hardest propositions to contend with
in the history of the packing industry
the packers are leaving nothing un-
done to gain the upper hand in the
struggle with their 30, 600 union en-.
ployes who are on strike. All day
long workmen from outside points
were rushed to fill the places of the
strikers.
Last night it was announced by the
packers that 1000 new men were now
installed in the different plants at the
stock yards. With these men and
with the new arrivals that are expect
ed each day the packers expect to get
their affairs in such shape that the
strikers will be compelled to seek
truce in the hostilities, and seek
peaceful settlement at the dictation of
the employers.
Chicago, July 27.-All the team.
sters are out today. The packers de-
clare they will not attempt to move
meat by teams but will send practi-
cally all the meat to outside points by
rail. No disturbances are reported
today.

 In the vehicle department is a rubber tire machine of the latest pattern.

"Wizard" Edison was asked by a
New York newspaper to state what in
his opinion, would be the greatest de-
velopment of the new year, and he
quickly wrote the one word "Radium'
and signed his name. The new ele-
ment has created an unparallel sem
sation Ia scientific and reading circles,
and it is fortunate that our city is to
be the first in the state favored with
an exhibition and demonstration Of
the remarkable qualities Of Radium.
A supply of the precious mineral is
guaranteed by contract, and an easily
understood description of the expert
ments will be given by splendid

demonstrates several other entertain

There are at least two recorded in
stances in which bees have been used
as weapons of defense in war. When
the Roman general Lucullus was war
ring against Mlthridates, he sent =
force against the city of Themiscyra.
As they besieged the walls the
inhabitants threw down on them
myriads Of swarms Of bees. These at
once began an attack, which resulted
in the raising Of the siege. These
doughty little insects were also once
used with equal success in England.
Chester was besieged by the Danes and
Norwegians, but its Saxon defenders
threw down on them the beehives of
the town, and the siege was soon
raised.
