Pathetic Side of Great Strike. Haxkltok, (Pa ), Sept. t. drove out thit morning through what wa meant by nature to be a series of beauti ful valleys in and about llsxdlon. In the breakert where coal Is cleaned and broken lino-commercial aires, the chil dren are accustomed to work at picking slate. Along tbe valleya are artificial mounds, mountains of coal refuse or clum. Black, grim bluff they are, sul len and blemishing. Where the raw earth ttarta between these piles It called etrippingt. Among these hills, ugly and gaunt, rite little villages. Rowt and rowt of black shanties rise in a ragged edge againtt tbe tky, making a weird outline picture. The day waa cold and raw. Few peo ple were In tbe streets, but tbe windowt were crowded with facet. "Stop here," I taid to the driver, "I am going to make tome calls." A moment later I stood at the door ofamlner'a home. A women, wltb a baby on one arm and leading a little boy by the hand, met me at the entrance, at though to prevent further progress. She waa a young woman, an American, and ehe wat proud. Her cheekt flushed and the color spread over her brow, down to tbe calico band at ber throat. Never theless, when I asked if I might come in, tbe ttepped back with native courte sy. x"It it not much of a place to come In to) It'a aa bare a home aa you're likely to have teen, but aocb aeit It you're welcome." The inalde of the house wa lett elo quent than ita back exterior; it appear ance wat even a more intense witness to poverty. The bare rafter of tbe ceilings were whitewashed. Some cheap printa were on the wall. "I had Intend ed fixing np a little," eald the young matron. "I wa going to get eome calico to tack on the rafters, but I can't doit now, of course; my tuan'e on a etrike." "Oh, yee," tbe went on, "we have enough to eat Just yet, but the company etoree can't be expected to give truet during a strike, and the ttoret at Ilatel ton eay they ain't going to trust any. They hain't shut down on us yet. I oppose we'll get some money from the onion, but it' certain to be short ra tions." "Do yoa worry about It?" I asked thoughtlessly. "Worry, ma'am," and she looked ber answer. "Me and my man we could get along, but it'a tbe children ; I tell yoa that hart." Tbe blue-eyed baby stared aolomnly and sucked it fist. "At long a any neighbor ha got any thing," put in a cheerful-faced Irish woman, who waa talking it over in the kitchen, "she'll tetltout and we'll all there alike." Father Phillip told me tbit morning to teek the light aa well at the ehadowt. He warned me that in visiting the vil lage! I ihould find poverty, but he de clared deatitution did not eiiat, at tbe charitiet reached oot to prevent that. Theeviltot the village! of Lehigh valley minet," said the Father, "are caused by the aame reasons from which suffering in Ireland came about absen tee landlordism," I have talked to one striker. At Wilkeabarre I stepped off the Black Dia mond special ot the Lehigh Valley rail road to get the local running down tbe valley to Hatelton. I bad been riding n the observation car watching with de light the beautiful valley viewt off through the hills, scarcely realising that the coal fields were growing into the environments at we whirled along. In tbe atatlon at Wilkeabarre I aaw a row of children sitting alone in their neat little gingham pinaloret and kiltt. One child, scarcely thirteen, wat acting at a mother; the tmallett one waa a baby In her arms. Wbat. eoven babies I" I cried. "All alone! Where la mother T" "Mother gone to look for work," an twered the biggctt girl. All the children looked peekid and pensive. Not one wriggled out of bit teat in play. At a near-by counter old fashioned ttickt of candy could be had ; I bought tome, and no sooner did every child clutch eagerly at a ttick ot the proffered sweetmeat than a father and mother harried In breathless, just re turned from a vain search for work. "Thank you, lady," taid the father, "for being ao good to oar little ones," and the mother' face brightened np with pleasure at the trifling attention Are you a trikej7" I asked with sudden inspiration. I am, lady, God help as," answered the man, passionately. I wattmaxed at hie tudden flaring excitement. "There, there, Jim, don't Cry," mid the woman, quickly- moving to hit aide with awkard eympalhy, "Haven't alwayt stood by yon and ain't I going to now? I can get work, never four. He'a an aw (ul good man tome and hii ehil dren, ma'am, and 'deed I'm strong and can work. - I want to work. I want to help, I only want blm to stand with hit mates till they win this right against the Injustice which baa held tbem down tor live yeare." "Yes," said the man, who picked np hi! spirit with hi! wife's words, " We've had bad treatment. Yon ain't got time to listen to much, bat I'll tell you this I've been in tbii valley fifteen yeara I've alwava worked hard and faithfully I'm coining out ot the valley with notb ing but a bog of rag and my wife1 seven children.
