Hard Proposition.

San Francisco, Cal, June To-.
Mrs. w. Walters of Oakland broke
a bone in her right hand when she

three others were wounded.
The man killed was Steven Du-

The strikers succeeded in setting
fire to part of the fence surround

driven back by the officers. After
retreating out of range they held
parley and the strike leaders declar-
ed that they would make another
charge and get inside of the works

HAVE EXPENDED BIG SUMS.

Muscatine, June 15.-The Musca-
tine button workers trouble is not
over. This fact was discovered by
the delegates to the annual CONVEX
ton of the Iowa State Federation OF
Labor who were here representing
10000 men and women workers OF
the state. The Muscatine button
workers strike was the one big
thing on the minds of the delegates
while in Muscatine. They had
heard of this strike trouble for fif-
teen months.
The stories told here differ. The
friends of the strikers say one thing
and the friends of the manufacture
.ers another. However, all are feel
ing bad. The strike has not been
settled. There are said to be some
1900 or 1900 people at work in
the plants. Before the strike there
were said to be nearly twice this
number.
The workers who are back in the
factories went back voluntarily. The
question of unionism, it is said, was
not raised by the manufacturers
when the workers were taken back.
The leaders, however, are not at
work. Emmett Flood and Miss Cath,
crime Finnegan, the two American
Federation of Labor organizers, We're
here. Both addressed the federation
During the last fifteen months
these two leaders spent $4,000,
more or less, in an effort to win the
strike. During that time the work.
'ers, Flood says, lived principally on
beans and rice. Two hundred and
f1fty-nine cases of soap, 2 tons of
rice, 16 tons of beans, 5 tons of
rolled oats, 80 barrels of salt, 10
tons of sugar, tons of coffee. so
tons of flour, 1853 cases of milk. 3SS
cases of syrup and 10 cases of sar-
dimes We're among the foodstuffs
purchased for the strikers during
the trouble.
Then Flood and number Of his
associates were indicted on con-
spiracy charge. At trial few
days ago in Davenport they were ac-
quilted. All of the unions debts
have been paid. The workers have
a clear field and are ready for sec
ond strike.
Labor leaders, however, do not
believe that it will be necessary to
call second strike. They say that
they will win their fight, which has
been declared one of the greatest in
the history of trades unionism in
the United States. They believe that
the button manufacturers will come
to them and make peace. Flood
and others say that their informa-
ton is that during the strike the
eastern button manufacturers Sc
cured a large pare of the business
and some of the best of the local
statesmen. The re-
suit, they say, is that the manu-
facturers have been left high and
dry. There is but one way they can
get business. That is to make peace
with the unions and have the unions
of the United States spread broad
cast the words: "Muscatine but
tons are fair-buy them"

After he had been discharged,
Jim Hunter threatened to shoot his
brother. On learning this the liv-

home and got a revolver. Accom-
panied by his wife he went to a
lawyers Office and had his will made
out, saying that Jim was "going
to get him." He told the boys in
the barn good-by and stepped out
into the yard where his wife was
arguing with Jim. After brief ar
gument the two began shooting,
emptying their revolvers at each
other.

Villisca, Ia, June 15.-The mys-
terry surrounding the tragedy here
has not been lightened in any quart
er. The community has quieted
down, and yesterday no new rumors
disturbed the people. The authors
ties have not relaxed their efforts,
however.
A report is current. that the Illi-
nois suspect has been discharged.
Attorney Ratcliff, Fay Van Glider
and her mother left for Monmouth
Thursday night to see if he could
be identified as the man who asked
her where the court house was, and
who was said by Mrs. Moore to have
passed by her home. There is no
specific thing known connecting him
with the crime. but if the stranger
can be found he would be required
to explain his presence in Villisca.
Sheriff O. E. Jackson is still in
Creston and vicinity investigating
the story about the lunatic who is
said to have escaped.
Colorado Springs, Colo, June 49,
officials who are in con-
slant touch with the Villisca auth
critics, find added parallels in the
Moore and the Burpham-WayneI
murders, which are difficult to ex-
plain except by the theory that the
same person or persons committed
both crimes
In Villisca the murderer hung
skirts and aprons across the win
dows to prevent any one from look
ing into the house; at the Wayne
and Burnham homes bed spreads
were stretched across the windows.
In Villisca he covered the heads of
the victims with bed clothing, WHIP
ed the blood from his ak, and re-
moved the stains from his hands |
and clothing; and this, too, was the
case here. Here, as in the Iowa
town, the doors were locked, an
unfastened rear window in each in
stance affording a means of entrance
for the axman.
A national fund for the employ
ment of detectives with federal pow
er is suggested by the police as the
best means of running down the
crimes.

NETWORKS ON TREES AND
SHRUBS,

Webworms on trees and shrubs
are very abundant and conspicuous
during the middle and latter part of
the summer" said State Zoologist
II. \. Surface in his office at Harris
burg, this week. He then proceeded
TO discuss this subject in a plain,
practical way, giving the results of
his own experience during several
years. He said "Webworms are
commonly but wrongly called Tent
caterpillars.' The latter live in lit
tie tents at the forks of branches Of
only few kinds of trees, and craw'
out from under the tents to feed on
the leaves, returning to the tents for
protection. Webworms spin loose
silken webs over the leaves and
feed beneath them. These are not
firm tents and are not constructed
in the forks of the trees. The Tent
caterpillars feed in the early part of
the summer, while the Webworms
begin about midsummer. The lat
ter feed on many kinds of trees and
shrubs, and effect a great deal more
destruction than do the Webworms
for the reason that they remove the
foliage at a time of year when ii is
especially needed to help form buds
for next years fruit or leaves. A
second growth of leaves and twigs is
liable to occur where it has bsen
defoliated by Webworms, but this
may be so late and tender as to be
killed by winter freezing easier than
twigs that were formed early and
became hard before winter. 1t is
certain that Webworms show gross
oarele ssness on the parts of own ers
Of shrLbbery and orchards. These
should be removed promptly as soon
as seen.
"The best treatment consists in
stripping them from the trees where
they are found. This can be done by
hand, either with or without a
glove. Pruning off the infested part
is allowable, only when it will not
deform the tree"
