"a Pair of Country Kids. y

"There is enough tragedy in life,
when we go to the theatre give us
something to laugh at" That is the
trend OF public mind to-day, it is more
1t is the public command, and it is in
obeyance of that command that the au-
thor wrote "a Pair Of Country Kids"
which will be at the Reynolds opera
house Monday night, October oath.
Comedy predominates, yet there is a
highly sensational plot of rare heart in
terest interviewer in the play. Hi and
Trixie, pair of country kids, are the
principal mirth makers. The smooth
hammered villain is very much in evil
dence, while Uncle Ezra and Aunt
Melinda have hand in all that hap
pens.

Almost Buried Alive.

John Stauffer, of this place, who was a
member Of Company A, rs Regiment,
had an experience during the Civil War
that he would not care to repeat. In
February, 1862, he was in field hospi-
tai at Green River, Kentucky, suffering
with typhoid fever, when he was thrown
into cart with four dead men. Those
whose duty it was to send out the dead
for burial mistook Mr.. Stauffer, who
was unconscious, and whose vitality
was very low, for a corpse. 1t was rain
ing hard at the time and while on the
way to the burial place Mr.. Stauffer
was thoroughly drenched. This reviv-
ed him, and when he realized that he
was being carted out with the dead he
naturally began making all the noise he
was capable OF producing. He soon sue
ceeded in attracting the attention of the
driver, when he was taken back to the
hospital, aud from that on his condition
improved. 1t is not improbable that
the cold bath Mr.. Stauffer received
saved his life as well as preventing him
from being buried alive.-Punxsutaw-
ney Spirit.
John Stauffer is brother OF D. B.
Stauffer, of West Reynoldsville. He
visited in this place last Sunday.

strike Of the Rockmen VIII Crowds
pute as TO wages Paid.

The officers Of the Rookmen's and Ex-
cavators' Union and the allied trades,
which started a series Of strikes last week
against the Contractors Protective Asso-
citation, denied yesterday the statement
that tine men have been getting higher
wages than they demand.
The strike committee will enter on
number OF new strikes this week which
will throw thousands Of mechanics in the
building trades idle and delay work on
dozens Of projected buildings. Vincenzo
Vecchio. the walking delegate OF the Rock
mems and Excavators Union, said yester-
day;
We challenge the Contractor associa-
ton to prove that the men are getting more
wages now than they demand under the
new agreement II the employers can
prove that they are paying more than we
demand we will call the entire strike on
If we hear no word from the employers
we will go right ahead and order strikes
right and left against every employer who
refuses our demands. The wage demands
do not signify so much TO US as recognition
Of the union, and recognition Of the union
we must have If work IA stopped on every
building in Greater New York. The reason
we did not order the %, 900 members Of
our union out at first "a because we know,
and the employers know, too, that IL would
stop all building and throw thousands Of
mechanics in other trades idle. We will
give the employers the chance by ordering
strikes a few at a time, to avert a general
strike Then, II all building in New York
Is tied up the employers will be to blame
The e1cavators believe that the general
contractors will bring some pressure TO
bear on the Contractors' Protective Asso-
citation 70 make II settle with the union In
order that the building season may not
be delayed.
Matthew McConville, walking delegate Of
the Safety Engineers Union, whose mem
bers are on strike with the rocknen and
Excavations, said yesterday evening that
the strike would center at the Jerome Park
Reservoir. The strikers have established
two strike headquarters, one near the
reservoir and the other at Marconi Hall,
ii4th street, near First avenue.

Next TO the Atlantic in favor is the Tn
dymion and this boat has fine record. she
has crossed the ocean several times and
holds the record from the Needles to Sandy
Hook 10 days 20 hours and SO minutes.
The best days run on that trip was 1s2
miles and her poorest l44 miles. The best
DAYS run ever made by the Endymion
was 3s8L5 miles and in three consecutive
davs she made OO2 miles, averaging $50

from New York TO Bermuda in 7lH hours,
averaging ten knots an hour. In race
from Newport TO Sea Gate she beat against
a southwest wind and made the tnp in
?Sl, hours This will show what the En-
dymion can do. She Is good in all sorts OF
going and many good judges pick her to
win.
The Hamburg IA third choice. This
boat sailed over a 81 mile course on Cowes
in So hours, averaging IL miles an hour.
She is wonderfully fast reaching.
Next comes the Ailsa. This boat won
race over the New York Yacht Club course,
SO milea, in 3 houns s seconds. She won the
Aston cup in a hard blow and a rough soa
over a SIS mile course in 3 hours IS seconds.
The Hidegarde Is a dark horse. She IL
known to be fast and a fine sea boat. The

Is moderate and she has reaching breezes.
The Thistle h good boat in fresh TO strong

good boat in any kind Of going, but 1t IA
thought that she is empowered by the

MITCHELL REPLIES TO c. F. T..
Defends CIVIC Federation, but May Have
Eaten NOn-UniOn Bread.

President John Mitchell OF the United
Mine Workers replied TO the charges made
against him some time ago at the Central
Federated Union, when a committee was
appointed 20 investigate the Civic Fedora
ton.
The reply took the form OF a letter TO
NJ NJ Richter. secretary Of the committee,
which was read at yesterdays meeting OF
the Central Federated Union. The main
charges we're made by Morris Brown, the
Socialist delegate and were that Mitchell
was guilty OF eating non-union bread and
smoking non-union iRars at the annual
dinner Of the Civic Federation In the Park
Avenue Hotel.
In his letter Presi dent Mitchell gives
several instances In which the Civic Fedora
ton was the means Of lettering the oon-
di,ion OF the anthracite miners, and de-
clares that the charges that the Civic
Federation was inimical TO organized labor
were absolutely unfounded.
In reference 10 Browns charges, he
tHad Mr.. Brown Investigated he could
have easily ascertained that ! did not
smoke non-union cigars. II may be true
that non union bread was served, but IL
this WAS 30 / know nothing about Il. Il il
unnecessary to, say to your committee
that the label il not placed on every slice
OF bread served. / am not sufficiently
churlish 10 rise and ask at a banquet II the
bread bears the union label
