f Raleigh, N. C , August 3.- A spe?
cial received here to night states that
a strike of plumbers began in Greens
boro, N. C., to-day, precipitated by
unusual canses. Fourteen plumbers
and several helpers walked ont of the
J. E. Albrieht establishment because
of disagreement over a new by-law of

icnv^plnmber from riding a bicycle
from the shop to a job to which he has
been assigned to work.
5 At a meeting to-night the master
plumbers decided that they wonld not
reconize the by-law, but rely upon the
contract signed with the anion recent?

senseless, and that they have a right
to harry workmen to jobs daring work
hoars, especially when property is be?
ing damaged by overflow from bnrsted
water pipes etc. The fight attracts

SOUTHERN COAL FIELDS.
What is Doing in Eastern Kentucky
-The Railroad Lines Interested
-Millions Spent on Short
Lines.
By the extension of the Chesapeake
& Ohio Raillroad from White House
to Elkhorn City, in eastern Kentucky,
there has been opened to development
an entirely new and vast field of the
best steam and coking coal unsur?
passed in Pennsylvania or anywhere,
and there has also been made possi?
ble all the activities which usually ac?
company railroad construction into a
country heretofore isolated and unde?
veloped, but rich in timber and other
resouces. The conditions here are
of large commercial significance, and
are interesting from every point of
view. Tims writes Albert Phenis from
Pikeville, Ky., in the Manufacturers'
Record.
"In the remarkably accelerated de?
velopment of the West Virginia coal
fields there has been a notable rail?
way construction, both of branch
roads and new lines. Here in this
section there is seen the more extra?
ordinary spectacle of $4,000,000 being
spent on a road but 76 miles in
length, whose construction at this
time was brought about almost sole?
ly as a feature of the development of
a coal field from which not one pound
of coal has as yet ever been shipped.
"It is easy to believe that all the
roads of the south would like to get
into the Elkhorn coal fields, and there
is plausibility in the project announc?
ed having that end in view. Without
now taking up each case separately
and in detail, it may be stated as al?
together in keeping with the logic of
the situation and in harmony wdth
surface indications that the syndicate
which has bought the Carter inter?
ests in che South & Western road, in
operation between Johnson City,
Tenn., and Spruce Pine, N. C., to?
gether with the Clinchfield coal prop?
erties, will carry out the Carter plans
of building On through the Breaks of
the Sandy in one direction, and in the
other to a connection with the Sea?
board Air Line at some point in North
Carolina.
"Thus there would be secured to
the Seaboard the great advantage of
access to the Elkhorn coal field and
to the cities of the north, and, through
connections with the Chicago, Hamil?
ton & Dayton, Detroit, Toledo & Iron
ton (formerly Detroit Southern,) Erie
and Big Four roads, a new and most
direct trunk line would be establish?
ed between Cincinnati, Chicago,
Cleveland, Pittsburg and other cities
of the middle west and the Caroli?
nas, Georgia and Florida.
"The activities of the various inter?
ests which promise at least a consid?
erable construction of road to develop
not only the Elkhorn fields, but those
of Wise, Dickinson, Buchanan and
other counties across the border in
Virginia, are. significant as showing
the wide extent of the present interest
in southern coal lands."
The petition for a Brice law elec?
tion in Darlington county to vote out
the dispensary has "been signed by
1,064 voters out of the 2,500 qualified
electors. The election will be held
in September.

Perhaps yon have the most stubborn
and fatal disease the doctors know about.
?Perhaps you've suffered untold agony
and daily torment.
Perhaps you are unable to look after
your daily work, maybe not well enough to
give it a fraction of the time it needs.
Perhaps you're discouraged with life
never expect to get back your youthful
vigor again-lost your ambition, take no
interest in your business, no longer enjoy
old pleasures, find home and friends less
attractive. The above are the usual penal?
ties of disease suffering.
Perhaps you've tried a dozen doctors
and a dozen different medicines. Then given
np with disgust. It's a common experience.
Do you expect to stop trying and risk the
fatal end? Or are yon still open for a posi?
tive cure? Tour confidence, no doubt, has
been shattered before by a dozen trials, but
because you nave grasped at straws in the
past, will you refuse now to try a proven life preserver? Won't
you bolster up your faith ic human nature and try again? A
positive cure depends on your answers.
