Armies of Strikers Commit Renewed Depredations In Pennsylvania. McKeesport, Pa., June 7. —Striking tube works rioters marched on Duquesne late yesterday afternoon, and when reaching there the crowd had increased to 6,000 strikers and sympathizers. With yells they attacked the Duquesne tube works, drove all the men at work out of the plant, drew the fires and ran the hot metal from the furnace on the floors. They say the works were using black sheep coal. The assault was witnessed by thousands of spectators. As the strikers left one of the men threw a plank in front of a train, nearly derailing it. They left the mill on a run and started back over the hills to attack the coal pits in Mifflin township. . Earlier in the day the strikers prevented any attempt to start the National tube works by swarming about the place, expected deputies failing to appear. The strikers afterward destroyed tipples at slack piles across the river and at a point a mile above, being impelled to these deeds by the fact that the coal famine has compelled the use of slack.

Nachtrib. j The Democrat of last Saturday in speakking of tbe reception given by the graduating class at the home of Clerk Lenhart, should have used the term ‘'‘Class” insttead of Miss Millie Lenhart. Each class as they graduate holtjl \ a reception and this one was in the regular order. There was a small sized “boss” race on Front street, yesterday afternoon. The horses entered in this race was a Michigan horse belonging to Frisinger & Mangold and the brown stallion owned by Frank Jackson, and the drivers Beery and Jackson. It was a neck-and-neck affair from Borling’s Butter and Egg Exchange to Monroe St., and had the road been a little longer we don’t know which of the drivers would have claimed the stake. As it was the stakeholder made the race a draw, and honors were divided. We have in our possession a copy of the San Francisco Chronicle, of May 18tb, which contains an account of the closing exercises of the Educational Congress held in connection-with the Midwinter Fair. Among other interesting things we find the following which explains itself: “G. W. A. Luckey of Leland Stanford, Jr., University, spoke for fifteen minutes upon ‘An Investigation of the Color Sense in Children.’ To illustrate his remarks Mr. Luckey presented a dozen iarge charts to show how numerous investigations were conducted at the University to determine the preception of color in children ot various ages. His remarks were highly appreciated by those who take a scientific interest in the subject.” o Notice:—Big money to hustlers; easy work and good pay.
