SOLD OUT AND OUT.

SOLD OUT AND OUT,
"And be sure to bring back a bot
tie of sea-water with you. They say
as how it's so good for the rheumat-
ics,' remarked old Mrs. Giles, by way
of final exhortation.
Then, moment 6ater, the excur-
sion train steamed out of the station
on it's journey to the coast, bearing
among it's human freight the aged
form of Thomas Giles, a true son
Of the soil.
But at the seaside, although amaz-
ed by the vastness of the ocean, he
did not forget himself so far as to
neglect his wife's behest. So, observ-
ing two mariners standing on the
sands, he approached them, and In
quired of one of them the price Of q
bottle of sea-water.
"a quarter a bottle, SIR" replied
the salt, with knowing wink toward
his companion.
Cheerfully Thomas paid his quar-
ter; then retired inland to see the
sights and get food. Some two hours
later, having examined the church,
the aquarium, the museum, and
local eating-house, he returned again
to inspect the sea.
But, 10 and behold, where the sea
had been now stretched miles Of
sand. Hardly able to believe his eyes,
Thomas fastened to his old sailor
friend, and
"By George! You've had busy
day." he cried enthusiastically. "Sold

CUTTERS STRIKE
HALTS GRANITE
CONSTRUCTION
Trouble Spreads; Contractors, Fighting
Wage Increase, Hire New
Men

New York, June ~. Construction
throughout the city where granite is
used was affected by the strike of the
granite cutters yesterday,
Members of the Granite Manufactur-
hulk of granite construction contracts,
have decided to resist the demands of
the cutters and employ new men.
The strike is to enforce demands of
the granite cutters for an increase in
wages from $3.50 to S5 day.
The granite manufacturers said yes
terday that the strike of the men at the
yards opposite cemeteries on
Long Island is only an incident of the
strike. They have sent a committee to
tie headquarters of the National Gran
ite manufacturers in Boston to ask for
higher wages. A meeting of the local
association will be held day to hear
the report OF the committee.
A representative of one Of the largest
association firms said last evening that
" hen the wages OF the granite cutters
were fixed at $3.50 a day the granite
went as far as they could
20.
I'VE are competing with granite man
lfacturers in towns where cutters are
,aid $3.50 day or less he said "Since
he general strike began nine firms in
he association have opened their yards
9Th new men and by the end of this
eeek we expect the other members of
he association. of whom there are be-
ween twenty-five and thirty, to do the
Al
rdy OF being left out in the cold unless
he strike is called off at once"
He added that this is bad year to
nforce demand for higher wages in
be building trades.
Granite cutters have quit work at the
yards near Evergreen, Cy
ress Hills, Salem Fields and Mount
ion cemeteries. The yards near Green
God and Holy Cross cemeteries are not
ifected.

morning of April II last caused the
death OF seven persons, was arrested

the officers for two other persons, who,
II is expected, viii be apprehended soor,

at $1,000. which was furnished, and he
was released.
