The hot weather in the north is oil-
ing up a heavy death roll. On July I
there were 18 deaths from sunstroke
in Pittsburg, Pa. Boston 11, Philadel-
phia 14, Baltimore 9, Cleveland 21.
A strike among the operatives of the
American Steel company was inaugu-
rated yesterday. 35,000 men have laid
down their jobs and refused to obey
the orders from the bosses. Tbis Is
just the beginning of a movement
which is expected to involve every
rolling mill iron foundry and machine
shop in the nation.

organizations, and kind words from
their pastor encourage them. 1 think
the label should be on every ticket
printed by the church for an entertain-
ment. I will ever remain firm in the
union, and assist them in doing what-
ever is right, wherever I possibly can."
The Ohio Republican State Conven-
tion has lifted again the banner of the
bloody shirt. It would deprive the-
South of its representation in Congress
to the extent that it has disfranchised
those who have heretofore been voters.
It has nothing to say of the wholesale
disfranchisement in the New England
States, and particularly of Vermont.
There the voter must have the personal
endorsement of the authorities of the
town that he is a proper person, be-
fore he is allowed to cast his ballot.
Men are making money in Mexico
The Thieves' Exchange. This is
about what the public will put as an
estimate of the New York Clearing
House, unless it gives the facts, and
all the facts, about the insolvent banks
belonging to that organization.
A dispatch from New York says that
in the clearing house officials made a
statement, covering the $938,0000 debit
against the Seventh National bank, de-
claring that, "All banks have settled
their balances satisfactorily. This de-
posed of all rumors."
GENERAL NEWS.
Carnegie has opened hte our to again
This time it is $750,000 for a public li-
brary at Detroit, Michigan.
Senator Kyle, late Populist represen-
tative from South Dakota, died at Ab-
erdeen on Monday last, of ntlarial fe-
ver.
On July 1 more than 100 persons
were prostrated by heat in New York.
The death rate from this cause is un-
paralleled.
As a result of the combing in lin-
seed .oil, an advance of 15 cents per
gallon has been made during the past
thirty days.
Samuel Gompers, the national labor
leader, fell from a street car in Washing-
ton City last Thursday and sustained
injuries which are pronounced fatal.
PRINCESS HELENE OF RUSSIA. *
The name of Princess HeUne of Russia is again eoupled with stories of an attempt that
is to be ma«lo to restore the empire in France. Some months ago it was announced that she
was engaged to Prince Louis Napoleon, the military man of the Bonapartists. Later comes
the story that the two have been secretly married. The point to *his announcement hinges on
the hope of the lloimpurtists that they may secure Russian aid to their restoration schemes.
Christopher Butts, a farmer living
near Atchison Kas., discouraged be-
cause he could not gee hands to help
him harvest his wheat crop, commit-
ted suicide last Monday by blowing out
his brains with a shotgun.
by the disreputable method of counter-
feiting American silver dollars. But
perhaps this is not so wicked after all.
These dollars have the same amount
of pure silver that the regular dollar
has. and go just the same. There are
doubtless millions of such counterfeits
In circulation in the United States go-
ing through the banks every day. In
fact, it is not counterfeiting in the
proper sense of that word, but it is a
very questionable enterprise.
