SILK MILL STRIKE.
Operators at Scranton Harvey Mills Per-
suaded to Stay Out.

SCRANTON. Pa. Aug. 1.-THE ex-
pected break in the silk mill strike did not
come yesterday. the textile workers Or
ganizers prevailing on the operatives of
the Harvey Mills 10 stay out until a gem
eral agreement is signed.
Many of the girls reported for work. but
were told it would be useless to start up
without a full force while the conditions
remained unsettled. An officer said the
Harvey Mills Company would gladly grant
an eight-hour day were it possible; but
unless all the mills did so 1t would be I'M
able to go any further in concessions than
it had already done, a fifty-hour week.
The operators have called another meet
ing, the disposition of the Harvey Mills to
make concessions having set several of
the mill men thinking, and there is now
a belief that they will agree upon some
thing definite to offer the strikers. About
5000 operatives are on strike.

ted total will remain to be devoted to
new construction.
Irrigation works are to nave $685. 300
spent upon them, and f665, 400 repre-
sents discharge of debt under various
heads, which naturally means reporow-
ing unless we regard the anticipated
surplus revenue of f775,O00 as being de-
voted to this particular object.
Already a loan of f2, 900, 900 or three
scores of rupees has been issued
in India, and the borrowings

MILLS CLOSED BY
DRY WEATHER.
Streams Lack Water and the Season Is
the Worst Connecticut Has Had
in Half a Century.

JEwETT CITY, Conn, Aug. 14.-The
present dry spell of weather is proba-
bly, the most disastrous of any during
the last half century. Many factories
in the eastern part of the State have
been compelled to close down on ac-
count of the drying up of streams, and
the cotton mill owners have suffered
heavily. Farmers are compelled TO
draw water from rivers n lakes
many miles away in order to save n
of their crops. No rain of any con-
sequence has fallen in this vicinity for
several weeks.

THE BUYING
OF LOTS HELPS
REAL ESTATE.
Purchase Adds to a Mans
Value as a American
Citizen


when a man buys a lot he adds to
his value as a citizen" says a real es-
tate broker.
The man who lives on just what he
earns never gets anywhere. To get
ahead IN the world man must invest
in something. Investing makes good
citizens.
LAS soon as a man buys something.
IL It is only a lot he has more Of an
interest I'm the community, more Of an
interest IN the stability and welfare
OF things and becomes a better citizen.
This city's wonderful growth. which
is subject for so much comment now.
is largely attributed to it's home maxi
ers. 1t is not alone in its industrial
growth. Many cities throughout the
country are now experiencing a won
derful growth, due to the general pros
perity. but IL gets it's great lead over
them all by being an attractive city foi
home makers. When people come TO
this city, they want to live here, and
although their interests at the time
may be elsewhere they go
ava ywith the idea that some
day they will return to make their
homes here. Their plans centre on that
end They make It the Mecca. That
is why it is growing. People come here
with the idea Of making permanent
homes, because they are pleased with
the city.
1T really IS one Of The best cities i'm
the country, for no matter how high
priced things seem to be, more can
te obtained here FOR a dollar than ip
any otheG city in the United states.
This fact toe, adds to the number OF
its homes"
