WAGE SCALES ARE FIXED THERE WILL BE NO STRIKE IN ELWOOD TIX PLATE MILLS. Refutation of a Canard Heavy Demand for Duy Laborers Renlta iu Steady Increase of Wanes. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. EEWOOD, Ind., July 23.-For the first time in years the new wage scales of both the Amalgamated Association and the Tin Plate Workers Protective Association havu gone into effect In the tin mills without a strike or shutdown. The new agreements, which were signed up before the expiration of the old ones, were practically renewals, as but few changes were made and the wages will remain the same. A report was sent out last night that the men employed in the mill here were preparing to strike on account of the hot weather. It was a canard, pure and simple, for while there has been a serious deflection from the ranks of the men during the heated term the idea of a formal strike on such grounds is out of the question. The unprecedented demand for day laborers on the street and other public improvements inside the city and the new traction extensions round about has forced the wages they received from Ji :'j up to J1.60 and $1.75 a day and there are indications that the $2 mark will be reached before the summer is over. Contractor O'Brien, who Is building the North B street improvement here, has nearly a hundred men employed and advanced them to $1.60 a day to hold them and complete the work within the time specified by the Council. The water compuny is paying its laborers $1.7").

George Trindle, a boarder at the California House, was arrested last night by Patrolman Anderson and slated at the police station on a larceny charge made by Miss E.nma Apple. Miss Apple told a pitiful tale to the prosecutor when she swore out the warrant for the arrest of Trindle and said that her action was breaking her heart, hut she was doing what she considered her duty. She was engaged to be married to Trindle, she said, and the wedding date was et for June 20. All the arrangements haci been made for the wedding and friends or both families had been invited to be present at the marriage ceremony. She had worked for weeks and with her own hands had made the gown in which she was to appear as a bride. The day et for the wedding came and as the hour approached for the uniting of the two Trindle went to her and asked her to loan him her umbrella as it was raining outside. She gave him the umbrella nnd he started out, but a mom r t later came back and said that he had left his money in his other clothes and asked if she would let him have $3.50 for an hour or so. Anxious to please the man she had resolved to marry, she gave him $3.50 of her hard-earned money, kissed him and told him to hurry back, as it was nearly tjme for them to be Mtrrtsd. The hoUjT for the marriage came, the relatives and friends assembled and the preacher arrived, but the groom failed to put in his appearance. For two hours the party waited but the groom failed to come. The guests went home and left the brokenhearted bride to her own misery. Since June 20 Miss Apple has never heard one word from the man who so cruelly mistreated her and several days ago she decided, that she had been made the victim of a swindle to the extent of $3.50 and her umbrella so she swore out the warrant for Trindle'8 arrest. Trindle has been in the city ever since June 20 and says he merely decided that he did not want to be married and forgot about the umbrella and money. He will be given a hearing in the Police Court this morning. FRANK SHELLHOUSE HUKT. Thrown from Hin Trail in Collision vrtth Another Ria.

Dear Sir: You buy your horseshoes and sails; your grandfather, if he was a blacksmith, made 'em. You can't afford to hammer them out by hand, when yon can buy as good, or better, perhaps, ready made to your hand, for a little more than the cost of the iron. What do you think of a painter Who goes on buying his linseed oil and white lead, and mixing, and tinting by hand, and charging his time for work th-t is fur better done than he can do it; done by machinery; done us your horseshoes and nails are made. Mistake isn't it? He is waiting his chance in th world. There is no better stuff to do business with than good horseshies and paint; and no better work than putting them on. Oood horseshoes well put on: It's the putting 'em on thai makes you a blacksmith: no matter who makes 'em. Who wants to go back to old times, and make his own horseshoes? Between us two, that painter don't know how to make good paint he used to; but paint has run away from him. Yours truly, F. W. DEVOE A CO. 1 S.
