DO BATTLE
WITH DEPUTY SHERlFFS
SIX STRIKERS wouNDED-Two
WILL PROBABLY DIE. ,

PERTH AMBOY, N. Y, Nov. 90
A pitched battle occurred yesterday
at the factory Of the National Fire
proof company at Keasby, near here,
between strikers and deputy sheriffs
and the national guard were in charge
of the city last night, patroling the
streets.
The deputies fired on the strikers
and the feeling is intense against
them, as it is claimed that they had
no justification for shooting at the
men. Two of the strikers are dying at
the hospital and six are wounded.
A general strike is in progress at
the plants at Keasbey and a number
of other towns along the Raritan river.
The men demand an increase of
wages from $1.3O to $1.5O a day. A
majority Of the men on strike are for
eigners and those who remained at
work at the plants are Americans.
The deputies claim that the strikers
stormed the plant and that they were
forced to shoot for their own protec.
ton.
Although the strikers made no dem
onstration today and evidence accumu-
lated that they were mot likely to
use further violence, vet it was de
cided this afternoon not to withdraw
the troops. All the wounded men were
reported tonight out Of danger.

"Fifty Miles From Boston,"

Fifty Miles from Boston" would
have been better as a drama than a
musical comedy. The plot a clev-
erly conceived and we'll carried out. It
is a pretty love story. In the pre-
sentation, the cast was splendidly bal
anced-for a drama. The attempt to
make a musical comedy Of it was q
failure, for the reason that the must
cal numbers we're miserable, and the
large, well voiced chorus, was, at dis.
advantage, in addition to being poorly
drilled. With the exception Of one
piece there were no tuneful airs. The
play was pretty with the exception
noted.

CHANGE
Of CLIMATE

Observations teach us that the eli
mate is constantly changing. There
was a time when Greenland and the
extreme northern part Of Asia were
covered with heavy forests through
which roamed large beasts, some larg-
er than the elephant. The remains Of
these forests and animals may be
found there today, though these lands
are but fields of ice and snow and
in many places the ground is frozen
sixty feet deep. The Esquimeaux
dogs, when travelling over these coun-
tries, often dig up the meat of these
ancient animals and feed upon it. It
has remained frozen up in a fresh
state for perhaps thousands of years.
This would indicate that the change
from a s~emi-tropical to a frigid eli
mate was sudden. What caused this
sudden change no one knows.
There is now unmistakable evidence
that the warm temperate zone in the
United States is gradually spreading
northward. The warm Japan current
bending southwark from Behring Sea
has changed it's course some 600 miles
nearer the American coast, consider
ably affecting the climate in the west
ern part of the United States. This
change has been made in the last few
years. But the gradual changing of
the climate has been going on longer
than this. Forty years ago farmers
settling in Iowa were disappointed to
find they could not raise corn. The
nights were too cool and the summer
too short. That condition gradually
gave way to more favorable seasons
and today Iowa Is one Of the greatest
corn states in the Union. The corn
zone has gradually drifted north. At
this time the south half of Minnesota
produces large fields Of corn. This
season corn making t~hirty-hve bush
els per acre was grown about thirty
miles east Of Miles City. No doubt
the day will come when Fergus coun-
ty will be dotted with waving fields
OF corn and large old apple trees will
flourish to be robbed by the school
boys as they meander along the shady
lanes. For what is true of corn is
also true OF other forms Of vegeta-
tion.-Judith Basin Farmer and Stock

Mrs IT. C. Groves tells an amusing
experience she encountered last week
in company with Mr.. Groves, when
they started to attend the political
rally at Green Springs. They started
from Tampa and took boat at Port
Tampa for the springs. They had not
gotten fairly away from the dock ere
IL ey ran into another boat, disarrang-
ed their machinery, which left the
boat at the mercy of the waves which
were running high and no help at
hand. The excitement ran high and
II was added to by the report that the
collision had started leak and the
boat was sinking. To add horror to
this scene the life preservers were de-
posted on the roof of the boat. For
tunately the tide was coming in strong
and floated the boat to shore, where
the men jumped out and assisted the
ladies' to land and Mrs. Groves said
the amusing and comical part she
played was being rescued through a
window which was all too small for
her person to pass through, but after
heroic efforts she was safely landed.
She says she believes she would be
still sticking in that window had she
not lost during the past four months
pounds. This is Mrs.
Groves third experience on board
