TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE
MOON PLAINLY VISIBLE
Hundreds of Citizens Watch
the Phenomenon.
Bank Of Clouds Obscures at the
Beginning and Ending Of the
Eclipse.

IA total eclipse of the moon was
plainly seen by hundreds of Marion
people Thursday evening. The moon
arose shortly after 1880 o'clock to-
tally eclipsed but was hidden be-
hind an embankment OF clouds.
Shortly after o'cloyk, the moon
could be seen quite high in the south
east with the shadow passed over
half way, so that the full moon ap-
peared as q crescent. The eclipse
passed and the shadow of the earth
was off apparently by 10 o'clock.
AT 10:30 o'clock the eclipse was en-
tirely over. Never has there been an
eclipse here. according to local star
gazers, which was so plainly seen,
and 1t was watched by hundreds OF
people. The shadow OF the earth
was upon the moon SO that it could
be plainly seen here fci over an hour
and half. As the time approached
for the shadow to pass off an en-
bankment OF clouds again covered
the face OF the moon and the final
stages could not be seen so clearly.
On the evening of June II, there
will be a total eclipse OF the sun as
1t sets. 1t will be the strangest
eclipse of the sun for over 400 years.
For a few seconds IT will be an an
nual eclipse and will then change to
a total eclipse, the nback TO an an
nual eclipse again. 1t is also unus-
ual that an eclipse occurs just as the
sun goes down so that II can be
seen on this side of the continent
setting eclipsed and rising eclipsed

The Tip Top restaurant, located
on East Center street, which for the
past several weeks has been conduct
ed by Mr.. +. +. Keesy, closed its
doors to the public Friday morning
after very unsuccessful career

six months ago by William Rhoads

Demand More Money For
Handling Erie Freight.
TRANSFER WORK IS HINDEREO
Men Say They Will Stay
Out Until Point is Gained.
Local Erie officials Fear the Strik.
ers will Resort to Violence II
Other Men are Employed.

Over one hundred Italian laborers
employed at the lo,al Erie transfer
went out on a strike this morning
and the trouble promises to be
quite serious. The laborers want
more money for their work and they
declare that they will remain out on
the strike until they gain the point.
The foreigners are under the super
vision of G.. IL. Strong, who Is in
charge OF the transfer, and for
some time past they have SHOWN a
disposition of rudeness to those who
superintend their work. Thursday
evening, council was held and the
result was that the lalborers went
out this morning and refused to re-
turn to work unless gwen more
money. They are now paid an ay-
erage Of $40 per month and work
only about eight hours. They claim
that the road Is not paying them
what they earn.
When the trouble first became SER
ious this morning, Agent WI. w.
Sanders notified Detective Jerome
Ho1tetter, who went to the scene
but was helpless to do anything.
The work at the transfer was
badly tied up here today and prac-
tically nothing could be done, 1t is
feared that if any attempts are
made of employing others, the Ital.
ians may become angry and use vio.
lence. II is believed here that 9
concession must be made with the
laIborers If the trouble does moi
spread to the other bands who are
employed at other WORK.
LAt the transfer the work of the
Italians Is to separate the shipments
coming in here from various points
and arrange it so that they may bt
shipped to their destinations in one
carr The foreigners live near the
transfer in freight cars, which ar,
furnished as houses by the railroad
for their accommodation. Up unit
noon today, nothing had been done
in checking the progress of thu
strike.

Erie Railroad Bettered Ia.
dustrial Conditions.
improvements Made During Hard
Times Furnished Work
for Thousands,

Without any intention OF confirm
Of the Erie railroad as to the amount
Of Improvement that Is being done
by that company, the State Labor
Commissioner OF New York, in ac-
counting for the falling off in the
demand for labor for the year 1903
as compared with former years, says
rlhat If IL had not been for the
thousands of men employed 1y the
Efe Railroad company last year in
making improvements IN this state
and in New Jersey there would
have been much suffering among that
class of laborers who depend for a
living upon railroad construction.
Thus from an unexpected source, the
Erie road gets confirmation of the
fact that while the upstate Public
Service Commission was considering
whether or not it should permit the
company to issue $50, 100000 worth
Of new bonds for redemption and i'm
provements, the company was going
right along and making the better
ments anyhow, confident that in due
time the commission would see the
wisdom of permitting the company
to capitalize its necessary work Of
expansion. When the Erie has
completed its general plan of i'm
provements in the way of cut-offs
and easier grades 1t IS estimated that
the betterments will effect wonderful
economies in the matter of hauling
freight and thereby increasing both
its gross and the returns from an
enlarged freight business, not to
mention the increased passenger
business that will naturally follow.

RUN THROUGH LYNDON.
Missouri Pacific VIII Relay Its Main
Line Tracks.

Lyndon, Kan, Sept. 3.-When the
missouri Pacific starts the reconstruct
ton of the main line through KAN
sas, 1t is likely that the route will be
changed so as to bring the road di-
rectly through town instead of run
ming two miles north of town as is
now the case When the road was
first projected the town defeated the
bonds and the Missouri Pacific in a
spirit of retaliation routed it's line
north of here. In the twenty years in
which this road has been operated
so much trouble has been experienced
TO both the road and the Lyndon ship
pers, that the road is ready to over
look the defeat of the bonds and give
Lyndon better service. On this account
the line will undoubtedly be routed
through the town.
