FIRST BLACK" FAST
IN THIRTY YEARS
POpe'S Jubilee Order Is
News in Washington.
ANNOUNCED IN BROOKLYN
Waiting for Cardinal Gibbons Cir
cular Letter of In
structions.
ANNOUNCED IN BROOKLYN

I In letter read to all Catholic parishes
4 in Brooklyn yesterday Bishop Melon
I nell of that diocese has enjoined upon
members of the various congregations
strict black" fast in conjunction
with the recent order from Pope Plus
regarding his jubilee.
J Bishop Mcdonnell announced in his
letter that the Pontin has ordered, in
addition TO confession. communion and
visits to the cathedral or parish church
a black fast which is to be kept for
one day.
No Meat or Eggs.
A black fast means no meat or eggs
to be eaten. In its strictest sense it
means going for an entire day without
anv kind of food. Members of the
Brooklyn churches may observe the fast
any day in Nay or June or within the
month from September to October 8.
Nothing is known in Washington OF
the order for a black" fast which. ii
Is said. has been proclaimed in this
country. Catholics have heard unoff-
cially OF the Pope's jubilee but no cir
cular letter TO that effect has been is
sued by Cardinal Gibbons. according to
the custom of head of diOceses. 1t IS
expected that the letter will be issued
at an early date, but the announcement
OF the condition Of a black fast is news
TO Washington pastors.
First in Many Years.
Such an order has not been proclaim
ed since the early seventies. Its issu-
ance is rare thing 1t is rather asso-
ciated with. the early days Of the church
when strict penances were imposed by
Catholics Of the Old World
should its insertion in the Pope's or
der be authentic ii will be a departure
from the regular order of things which
VIII make the observance Of the jubilee
more difficult than 2ny of recent years

GENERAL PAY DAY
 AT PRATT CITY
LARGE CROWD OF MINERS RE- GENE THEIR ENVELoPES-MAY BE LAST PAY DAY FOR SOME TlME-oTHER NEWS.

Pratt City. July 16.-(speciaL)-rhis is general pay day at the mines in the Pratt City district and unless the miners and operators agree on scale in the next few lays, it will probably be the last on. fol scme time to come.
 'roday large crowds assembled before the ay office of the Tennessee Coal, Iron aDd hallway company and the men one by one received the envelopes containing their pay. As this is the last pay that the miners have in the office it is prob able that the office force will be reduced or clt off entirely.
 The situation remains unchanged, rela- tive tc the miners and the operators. Both sides are very quiet and neither will give out anything.
 Next Wednesday the people will hold a mass meeting under the auspices of the Commercial club to hear the reports of the committees appointed to investi- gate the placing of convicts in the mines by the Tennessee company.

 The outlook at the different mining camps throughout the county at present IS very encouraging, notwithstanding strikes are threatened at many places It Is learned that the mines generally have not been running on more than half time orders for coal being very late coming in Wmle strike at this time would be very hurtful to condition generally. if is believed that the operators would suf Ter very little from it. At Calumet the men all came out, and when the opera tors learned that they intended to call a strike they were promptly given their time and allowed to go. At Gamble mines the men have not yet formally called a strike, though there has been no worix there for several days
