Pittsburg, Aug. T.-"No pie no work"
The messenger boys employed by the
Western Union In this city are on strike
again. Forty of the boys walked out at
noon yesterday because their dinner menu
did not include pie. Patrick McClintock,
president of the sometime messengers

him that pie was the worst thing in the
world for the stomach.

AS for Facing the Music" IL is undeni-

shows Mr.. Ingersoll to be particularly

Miss Winslow is also worthy OF great
praise. She looked especially attractive
and played with that earnestness which
is the true spirit OF farce comedy. IT may
truly be said that Miss Winslow has not
been more charming all season. Miss

played with admirable vivacity and
humor, and was especially pleasing in

that admirably fitted her. and the audience
seemed to like her as much as they always
do. which is a great deal. Mr. Harris, as
the young curate, assumed the sancu-
monious manner with a drolery that was
irresistible and he was responsible for
much of the mirth of the evening. Mr..

last week as Pete, this week again scores
such hit that one regrets he was not

Stamford, Conn. Aug. 27-The plan
OF the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad company to begin
the operation OF electric trains be-
tween Stamford and New York city on
Sept. is not likely to be accomplished.
1t will probably be about the middle
OF the month before the shift to cleo

delays which have been experienced
Is the wiring over the Mianus river
which will not be completed for several

or as to their running time. will be
greatly changed when the electric
