Union-town, Pa., May 24. A riot oc
curred at Stickle Hollow, in the coke re
gion, this morning. The exact nam Der
. killed and wounded , cannot be ascer
tained yet, aa they were carried from the
ground as thongh mowed down by Win
chester. At least three are dad, and
half a dozen are seriously wounded.
Shortly before midnight 2,000 rioters as
sembled at the Stickle Hollow plants of
the Washington company. Some were
armed, but the majority were not. They
went into camp near the plant. . At 3
o'clock they adjourned to a public road
over which the workmen would have to
- pass. They stopped the first delegation
of miners, who after a little persuasion
turned back. At that moment tb" dep
uties were ordered to shoot at a lange of
about fifty yards. At the first volley the
strikers ran in every direction. The
deputies fired two more volleys, and
were shooting when the last striker dis
appeared. Officials of the company say
four strikers were picked up dead, and
about half a dozen wounded carried
away by their comrades. Other reports
say six were killed and sixteen wound
ed. The company officials say the strik
ers served notice on them that they ext
pected to assault the works, and the
deputies considered the interference with
the workmen the beginning of the as
sault. The strikers had made a demon
stration all night, even threatening to
visit the houses of workmen and give
them the choice to quit work or die.
The shooting was not all on one side.
The workmen were about to comply
with the command, "Go home!" when
the deputies rushed into the midst of
the strikers, got possession of the work
men and marched them to the pit. A
deputy sheriff -fired the shot which
opened the battle. Volley after volley
waB fired by each side at close range.
The strikers' ammunition gave out and
they were forced to flee. It is said the
strikers were advancing on the deputies
when the latter fired the first shot. - .
A large number of the strikers were
arrested today who had guns and am
munition. Five are known to be killed
and eight wounded. The killed are all
strikers. Three deputies are among the
wounded. Rainey has ordered four Gat
ling guns for his plants.
Strikers Wreck a Mine.
Cbntralia, Jll., May 24. Five hun
dred striking miners from the Duquen
and St. John's mines arrived here today
on a freight train, and -at the Big Four
mine, operated by Potenger & Davis, de
molished the machinery, filled the shaft
with about 10 feet of debris, and smashed
all the glass and sash. The total damage
is estimated at $2,000. The Big Four
mines have been running with about 30
men, who yesterday refused to come out
at the request of the local committee.
The strikers left the city on foot for
Odin, eight miles north, to shut down a
mine there. The sheriff swore in 50
deputies, who were equipped with Win
chesters from the armory here and left
for Odin on a special train. The miners
are armed with pistols and have plenty
of ammunition. .
Among Astoria's Fishermen.
Astoria, May 24. The gill-net fisher
men continue to make good catches, but,
on account of the muddy condition of the
jwater, owing to the freshet, the trapmen
and seiners are not so fortunate. Esti
mates of the pack to date, based on re
ceipts at Kinney's cannery, which made
the first shipment on the river, indicate
that the figures are equal to those for
last season at the same time. There
have been a large number of small fish
taken, owing to the greatly increased
number of small-meshed netw in use.
The disbursement of money for the
manufacture of cans will be mneh

sary the employment of additional hands
in this branch of the business. -

The May picnic was attended by a

Bolton's. The day was perfect, and
Mother Xsature bad done all in her
power to make the surroundings attrac

by the crowning of the May queen, who
was personated by little Amy Johnstorr,
after which the May pole was wound by
twelve merry lads and lassies, who wove
the bright colors in and out in perfect
rythm to the lively music of the band.
The next order of the day was dinner,
with which everyone was well suDDlied.
and for some time the air was filled
with merry laughter, accompanied by
the clatter of dishes and the delightful
aroma of coffee. The small boy waq

The Additional Curates' society which
furnished funds to provide curates for
poor parishes where adequate clerical
services are not available, has had

part, if not the whole of their income.
The society hopes for bjetter times this

Mr. Gilbert Parker, in his "Round
the Compass in Australia," describes a
journey across the plains of the Dar
ling river country in time of drought.
From this description we extract a
paragraph, horribly graphic, picturing
the suffering of the horses.
' It is a white and dreary plain. There
is a line of straggling gum trees be
side a feeble water course.
Six wild horses brombies, as they
are called have been driven down,
corraled and caught. They have fed
on the leaves of the. myall and stray
bits of salt bush. .After a time -they
are got within the traces.
They are all young and they look
not so bad. We start. ' They can
scarcely be held in for the first few
miles. Then they begin, to soak in
perspiration. Another five miles and
they look drawn about the flanks, and
what we thought was flesh is dripping
from them.
Another five, and the flesh has gone.
The ribs show, the shoulders protrude.
Look! A poler's heels are knocking
against the whiffletree. It is twenty
miles now. There is a gulp in your
throat as you see a wreck stagger out
of the traces and stumble over the plain,
bead near the ground and death upon
its back. There is no water in that
direction, worn-out creature. .
It comes upon you like a sudden blow.
These horses are being'd riven to death'.
And why? Because it is cheaper to kill
them on this stage of thirty miles than
to feed them with chaff at two hun
dred and fifty dollars a. ton.
And now another sways. Look at
the throbbing sides, the quivering
limbs. - lie falls.
"Driver, for heaven's sake, can't you
see?" ,
"I do, so hlp me God. I do. But
we've got to get there. I'll let them
out at another mile."
And you are an Anglo-Saxon, and
this is a Christian land.
