POLICE AND RIOTERS
HAVE A GREAT TIME

Chicago, Aug. e.. Rioters stoned the
Deering Street police station late last
night and for quarter OF an hour
the police battled with the crowd OF
1000 men and women as it charged
the station repeatedly with sticks and
stones, shouting vengeance against the
police.
The trouble started when the police
went to the assistance OF Frank Cas-
tellano, strike breaker employed in
the stockyards who had been dragged
from a street car and severely beaten
Nearly dozen time the police sailed
forth and charged the crowd with clubs
before the rioters were dispersed. In
one Of these charges three policemen
were injured with bricks. At least fifty
rioters were cut about the head in the
hand to hand conflicts with the po-
lice before they finally became sub
dued.

A BUILDING TRADES
STRIKE in NEW YORK

New York, Aug. THE Building
Trades Alliance, made up Of seventeen
unions, declared strike against the
George Al. Fuller Construction Co,
and the work was tied up upon these
buildings: The Times building, Forty
second Street and Broadway; Sturte-
want building, Twenty-ninth Street and
Broadway; Trinity building, next to
Trinity Church; New York Hippo
|drome, Forty-third Street and Broad
way, and Tabor building, Wall and
Pearl Streets.
Philip Weinsheifner, president of the
building trades, who declared the strike
on the subway last week, is respon-
|sible for the strike today The reason
given for calling out the men was be-
cause of a claim that the Fuller Co,
Ehad been using stone from ilon-uriofi
|quarfies and trimming yards. In some
quarters II IS said that the actual rea-
son for the strike was the fear that
|the Buiiding Trades Employers Isl
ISOLATION would declare lockout.

THE PILL MIXERS MET
AT THE FORKS TODAY
They Were Welcomed By Mayor Duls
and the Response Was Made BY
Siegfried of Sanborn Suggestions
In Porterfield's Address.

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug a.-The
North Dakota Pharmaceutical Associa-
|tion convened here this morning. On
account of delayed trans the forenoon
session was not called to order till
|II.4o Mayor Duis welcomed the pill
mixers and the response was made by
ID. F. Siegfried of Sanborn. President
Porterheld delivered the annual adj
dress.
President Porterfeld called attention
to the growth of the association. Sew
en- years ago there were seven druggists
at the annual meeting. Last year there
were 100. He referred to the intricate
conditions OF the trade which requires
THE combined and best thought of all
the members. He highly mSlimented
| the work done by the state pharmacy
board and the eminent success of its
efforts to raise the standard of eff
lciency of those who seek to practice
| in the state. He called attention to
the fact that legislation plays an impor-
ltant part in the business of the phar-
macist's work-it is necessary to pre-
vent unjust and unfair methods from
becoming laws. It has been demonstrat-
| ed that the "Shiels' bill is unsatisfactory
| to the public and to the druggist, in
| fact the law has made the trade a
Laughing stock in the eyes of co1serva-
tive and fair men. He urged the asso-
lciation to appoint another committee to
attend the legislature next winter to
watch things. He drew attention to the
laws relating to poisons and how they
instructed the pharmacists as to how
| they should be handled and marked
lyet two of tile worst poisons knoWr,
| to the trade, Paris Green and Formal
dehyde, were allowed to be sold ad
llibitufn by hardware men and in gen
| eral stores.
| This evening the visitors will be Civ
en- an automobile ride over the city and
tomorrow night there will be drug,
gists' ball Thursday a picnic will be
held at the Town and Country Clut
grounds A large number of drug

One is that the state legislature adopt
ed careful laws governing the opera
ton of mines and the other is that
the mine operators have found it
cheap to use electricity
Some of the mines employ electric
ity for power in hauling everything
A few use it on the main entries and
still use the mules on the cross and
side entries.
These lines are built on the same
principle as the ordinary trolley with
the rod running upon a wire strung
along the roof. Besides the cars used
for carrying coal to the dump, each
mine has a passenger car in which
the men are taken to and from their
work and in which excursionlsts are
taken through the drifts.
Formerly one current of air was
thought sufficient to maintain life and
health. A means was discovered by
which the currents could be split and
one carried over the other. Now
every large mine has from twelve to
fifteen currents constantly circulating
through it and the air is nearly as
pure as on top.
