fered financial reverses and could not

Strikers Growing sulIen.

d 8
CALUMET, Mich. July 25.-The ar.
rival Of each detachment OF troops
was welcomed by most OF the resi-
dents here, for among the Americans
the strike Is unpopular. On the other
hand the mood of the alien strikers
has undergone a great Transformation
since yesterday. Then the strikers
were joyous and hilarious. today
there Is tone OF sullenness becom-
Ing more noticeable as each company
of troops arrives and marches
through the streets to the Calumet
armory where most of them Will be
chartered. Today there were few
open clashes between troops and
strikers. It was pointed out that one
reason for this absence of warfare
was the fact that about half OF the
copper country militiamen included in
troops from Houghton, Menominee,
Calumet and 500 are themselves mine
workers and most OF the remainder
work about the mine shops. II act
ual conflict between the troops and
miners start, 1t is expected here 1t
will not come until after the troops
from the south peninsula who are
entirely out of sympathy with the
mine workers, arrive.

This paper made mention In a
lengthy item the other day about the
swindling of two or three local par
ties, whose names were not divulged
because OF the "guying" 1t was
thought would surely follow. The
Kahoka information contains the
method OF procedure employed by old
man Barton, both in the Clark county
town and at Keokuk The letter
says:
An old man giving his name as
Charles Barton and his home as Bow
en-. Ill, is being held by county off,
Gals on charge OF obtaining money
under false pretenses. Barton came
to Kahoka day Of last week and
upon his arrival inquired for rear
estate man and was directed to the
once Of ]. T. Townsend & Co. He
stated that he had $4,000 which he
wanted to invest In Clark counsy
land. He was shown a number OF
farms and finally decided to buy the
Overhulser farm near Ashton. He
proved to be good mixer and soon
made many friends, to four or five
OF whom he volunteered to SEND i
bushel OF peaches each and to one
nice smoked ham If they would onry
prepay the express charges They,
came through" with 75c each and 4
letter was written to "Mollie,' his
supposed wife directing her to for,
ward the peaches and ham.
About this time his friends" be.
came suspicious and on Wednesday
evening Mr.. Barton was discovered
trying to make his escape. He was
arrested at Luray by Deputy Sheriff
Townsend and brought to Kahoka
where he languishes in jail. It is said
that he is wanted at Keokuk on a
similar charge.
Some are inclined to think that the
old man is demented, while others
think he is a smooth swindler. AT
any rate he is held pending further
investigation. The men who gave up
their coin with the expectation OF get
ting somethoing fine In the way OF
peaches will have to content them
selves with the thought that the
touch might have been worse.
