THE MEN HESITATE TO RECORD THEIR VOTES. - - - --Tho local committee at Bethesda meet daily, and they state that already 1,300 of the workmen have recorded their votes on the question of the resumption of work on the terms offered by Dir. Young. A good many, however, decline to sign the voting papers, expressing fear that their opinions will become known to the union on the one hand and to the management on the other. In view of this the question is being seriously considered by the committee as to whether it would not be a wise step to invite two independent persons to examine the votes and afterwards destroy the papers after the counting, which will take place on Thursday and Friday. An inquest has been held at Bethesda von the body of a quarryman named John Jeremiah Williams, who eon:emitted suicide on Sunday minting by cutting his throat with a breadknife. The jury returned a verdict of " Snicide while temporarily  One of the "Die-Huts" A SEQUEL TO INDIA AND THE ZULU Wilt. There aro many famous regiments with equally famons nick-names, and of the latter, none is perhum more famous than the " Die-harde," the let Ilattalieu Middlesex Regiment (the old 57th), whieh woo name at the battle of Allmers.  A reporter (according to the Warrington Exanoinv) recently had a conversation with an old " Die-uard" Mr. M.

(Fran& a photograph. by Park ialon, iVarringtort.l  "I was down four months there," said he, and had two months more of it at Netley Hospital when I came home. I blame my illness for the horrible pains I have suffered since. The doctors told me it isaii acute indigestion and spasms, and that I most be very careful. I tried ail kinds of medicines and spent pounds, bat until recently! dared not eat meat or drink tea. About two months ago I read about the cures effected by Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people, and immediately got a box from the company in London. The pills did me good at once, and I have taken them ever since. Just before I began to take them I had had a seizure, which came on like lightning, at the office here, and everyone thought I MIS going to die on the spot. Bat now I feel ever so much better, and eau take both meat and potatoes. The pills are a wonder and no mistake."  "Do yon know of anyone else who ha benefited by taking them?' .• My wife," said Mr. Shanghtimasy, " has been taking them for indigestion lately, and they have done ber good too. I have never bad any medicine which has done me so much good as these pills." Many people think that indigestion can be cured by purgatives. It cannot. A purgative simple sets up s new ailment, which we should call iliarrhcea,.and hike medicine for. if we had not brought it upon ourselves by our own foolishness. Indigestion, and a number of other disease—bile, rheumatism, paralysis, St. Vitne' dance, Immehitis, anemia, consumption, and ladies' characteristic ailments have been cured by Dr. Williams' pink pills, price two and ninepence iron chemists or stores, or post free at same price from Dr. Williams' medicine company, Holborn Viedect, London. If purchased at a shop, it is necessary make sure that the wrapper bears the full name, Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people; them words. if they are all there, are a safeguard against sabatitution.  ;3. ~, cliol Cir e6l 421.-Mo.. e --.....
