Six thousand men are now on strike. There is 'only about a fortnight's aupply of potatoes on hand, and a month's supply of oats. The Labor Defence Committee, in order to prevent unemployed accepting work are providing them with board and lodging. Mr Dibbs, leader of the Opposition, has given notice of a Bill to establish a Court of Conciliation in labor difficul ties. Melbourne, August 22. The wharf laborers have struck. The Shearers' Union number 25,000 members. They will stand by seamen. The President states if capitalists go to extremes he believes the dispute •will end in open rebellion, for the men are determined, if they are locked out, to obtain supplies somehow.

THE UNION COMPANY'S STEAMERS.

Wellington, August 21 It is rumored that during the present strike the Union Company's steamers will discontinue calling at Hobart. The Hon. G. McLean left for Dunedin yesterday in connection with the labor troubles.—"Press." Dunedin, August 21. The Union Steamship Company have received information that the wharf laborers at Sydney refused to discharge the cargo of tlie Taieri, which arrived ♦here this morning. The crew of the Waihora discharged that vessel, and she was to leave for Newcastle to-night.

THE BRUNNERTON DIFFICULTY.

Grbymouth, August 21. 'The loss in wages since the Brunnerton lock-out is £700. The loss to the Rail ways is also considerable. Thero is no sign of a settlement, though it is reported tlfe Company have written to the Miners' Association, asking them to go to work at 20 per cent reduction pending the appointment of a Royal Commission. A .number of grocers have shut up, and ot.hers are following suit. The fires at the .Brunner mine will soon stop for want of coal. All coal rubbish lying about the Coalpitheath and Wallsend mines is being carted to the Brunner mine to keep the boilers going. It is expected the Rail way Department will run only three trains per day shortly. It is reported that there is only about fourteen days' coal for the engines. The miners seem to think the Company will raise the price of coal, so as to be able to work the 1 mines without loss.

For some time past the drags and omni buses have run the Tramway Company a hard race for patronage on the Christchurch streets. The close competition had the effect of reducing tram fares and 'bus fares to merely nominal figures. The drag and "bus proprietors have been the first to show •ignals of distress, and a few days ago a deputation of their number waited upon the Tramway Company's Manager with a view to an agreement to raise the fares. The' Manager, however, refused to change the figures, so that the public of Christchurch will still enjoy their cheap street travelling. At the rehearsal of " Patience" last evening by the local company of amatuers there was a very good attendance of both male and female voices. The solo parts are now all filled, and close attention is being paid to these by the ladies and gentlemen in the cast, while the chorus is undergoing hard drill under Mr J. H. Brooks, the con ductor. The tenors have been recruited by one or two fresh voices, among whom we are pleased to notice that of Mr E. Higgins, who has returned to town after an absence of three months, and will be a great acquisi tion to the chorus.

THE SIGNALMAN ON THE MID LAND.

There are probably about a million men employed in various capacities on the Railways of Great Britain—a number large enough, if they were soldiers, to overrun Europe. Upon the intelligence, fidelity, and physical condition of this vast army depend the lives of multitudes who are constantly travelling by rail. Any sudden and serious disability happen ing to 1 one of them may result in a disaster which would put hundreds of families in mourning. Accustomed as it is to safe and swift conveyance from point to point, the public scarcely realises this fact. The following hrief narrative, which is strictly true, will therefore be read with interest: On the midland railway, twenty-three miles south of Carlisle, there is a little station called Culgaith. Here there is a signal-box in which Signalman Andrew ' Agge ia to be found on duty daily. As is the case with all other signal-boxes, this one contains the levers and the usual complicated electric and mechanical con trivances for making and receiving signals. Mr Agge is on duty nearly every day, and takes his luncheons without leaving his post. He is a sturdy man of thirty five, in good health, and no complaint has ever been made against him by the Com pany or by the public ; yet an incident occurred a few years ago that came near depriving him of his position and his life. For some time he had not felt well, the worst and most dangerous phase of his indisposition being a kind of giddiness that would seize him unexpectedly and' as he described it, " set everything to moving and twisting round and round." The doctor told him frankly that it was a symptom of a still more radical complaint brought on by too much confinement, and by his irregular habits of pating and sleeping, and that he had better abandon his work for a while, and try n change of scene. But this was easier said than done. He had a family to support, and couldn't afford the luxury of a vacation. He knew no oLher business, find could not risk the loss of his place. His work was always done, however, no matter how he felt. But it is only fair to say he had many anxious hours over it. His airment, which ho had discovered t'P be indigestion and dyspepsia, now set up more alarming symptoms. A physician at Appleby as sured Agge that there was serious trouble with his kidneys ;md bladder. "It is," said the doctor to the Signalman, "the result of the condition of your digestion. Your blood is poisoned by your stomach, and every organ of the body is crippled by it." This was a miserable outlook for Agge, who went back to Culgaith with small courage for his work. He took hold, though, as well as he could, and kept it up until one morning several weeks afterwards. He was jln his box as usual when of a sudden a sharp pain shot through him as though he had been stabbed with » knife, He tumbled down on the locker in the 4gnal-box, and lay there all the forenoon in acute distress and agony. For the time his work was a ! secondary consideration. Unable to re main jin that position any longer, he laid down and rojled on the floor. The pain in his hips and back was so intense that he compared it to being mt wjth dull knives, and pierced with hot irons. Agge was alone when the attack came, and as nobody except railway officials are allowed in the signal boxes, it was some time be fore his plight was discovered, Finally, however, the station-master came in, the neighbors were summoned, and the suffer ing man was put into a trap and taken to his house, half a mjle way. There he waa ill for weeks, part of the time uiir conscious. When the physicians had avowedly got to the end of their resources it was agreed that the signalman's end was only a matter of a very little time. This was the situation when a singular thing happened. Two or three years before, when Agge was feeling the earlier symptoms of his disorder, he had taken a medicine that helped him ; getting better, he put the bottle aside, still half ful}, and forgot it altogether. Now, aft he was almost in ft dying condition, his memory flashed up one day, and he distinctly recalled where he had put it. A search was made, and then it was found. The prostrate Signalman began using it, and to the astonishment i of neighbours and doctors, in a few clays was able to get out of doors. We may mention that the medicine was the well known preparation, Mother Seigel's Cura tive Syrup, although to advertise the article is not the chief motive for this little narrative. As a matter of fact, Signalman Agge kept on doctoring him* self with it, and it cured him, be its nature what it may. He wont back to his box long ago, and this incident is pr'nted in order that the reader may know more of the character and experi ence of a large and faithful body of public servants, _„»_«»

STARTLING EVENT IN A VILLAGE

To the Editor of "Saturday Night,', Birmingham, I recently came into posses sion of certain facts of so remarkable a nature, that I am sure you will be giad to assist in making them public, The follows ing letters were shown to me, and I at once begged permission to copy them for he Press. They come from a highly responsible source, and may be received without ques tion. MESSAGE from Gkoroe James Gort i,i?:«, L.D.S., R.C.S.I. .Ph. C.1,, Licentiate in Pharmacy and Dental Surgeon, Stowmarket, July 18, 1889. To Mb White, The enclos9il remarkable cure should, I think, be printed and circulated in Suffolk, The statement was entirely voluntary, and s genuine in fact and detail, —G.J.G. "To the Proprietors of MotherSeigel's Syrup." " Gkjttkkmbu-.— Tine following remarkabl* cure was related to mm by the husband, Ma y Ann Spink, of Finborouglj, Suffolk, was for 'over twenty years afflicted with rheumatism and neuralgia, and although comparatively a young woman at the time she was attacked (she ia now fifty), she was compelled, in censequeuep, to walk with two sticks, and even then witji d/jh'culty and pain. About a year and a half ago k!i# was advised to try Mother Seigel's .Syrup, and aft<:r taking threg bottles and two boxc3 of beigel s Operaauig Pills, the vse of her linih was rcxtomf, and si»o is now able to walk three miles to Htowmarket v/ith ease in tliree quarters of an hour. Any sufferer who deubts this stoi'.y am fully aac.er.tajn its truthfulness by paying a visit to the village and enquiring" of the villagers, who will rectify to the facts." "Appended is the husband's signatu to the stetement. " (K. Spihk), G, S, Sostling,

Ipßwich Street, Stowmarket. This is certainly a very pitiable case, and the happy cure wrought by this simple but powerful remedy, nmst move the sympathy of all hearts in a common pleasure. This poor woman had been a cripple for twenty of her best years; years in which she should have had such comfort and enjoyment as I jlie has to give. But, on tlie contrary she was a miserable burden te herself and a source of care to her friends. Now, at an age when the rest of us are growing feeble, she, in a manner, renews her youth and almost begins a new existence. What a blessing and what a wonder it is ! No one who knows her, or who reads her story, but will be thankful that the good Lord has enabled men to discover a remedy capable of bringing about a cure that reminds us if we speak it reverently—of the age of miracles.

Our specialty is well-known to be our ability and knowledge of the horse's foot. In a well ordered shoeing forge the following standard rules -will always be observed ;— 1. A shoe should n«ver be removed without first cutting off the clinches, because by simply turning back the clinch in drawing the nail a piece of the clinch is often loft in the foot, endangering the horse when the new shoe conies to be driven on. 2. The frog and bars require no cutting in a regularly attended foot. And in a healthy foot where there are no symptoms of navicular disorder, the solo should not be cut. 3. The shoe should have a level bearing upon the wall pi the foot, and should not be sprung at the heel, as is too common, thereby acting as a fearful lover upon the tendons, 4. The nails should be driven level and uni form, and only on the toe side of the inside quarter, the toot being thinner upon the j inside and the greater weight of the body being sustained there. ; 5. There is no comparison in points of quality between the hand-made and the machine made shoe. The machine-made shoe is of a coarser material, softer, and is imported, andit should be insisted upon that they be not used in the colony.



Certainly the Most Effective MEDICINE in the world is SANDER and SONS' EUCALYPTI EXTRACT. Test its eminent powerful effects in Coughs, Colds, Influenza, etc.; the relief is instantaneous. Thousands gave the most gratifying testimony. Read this certificate:—" 24th April, 1885 — Messrs Sander and Sons.—lt is with the greatest of pleasure that I testify to the excellence of your. Eucalypti Extract. Having had inflammation of the boiie of the leg, which came on after a severe attack of low fever, I was attended by Dr J. Boyd, who had made strenuous efforts to save my leg, but without success. He found it necessary to amputate my limb. Having heard in the meantime of the wonderful cures worked by the Eucalypti Extract, I obtained a bottle, and the extract had not been applied more than an hour when I began to feel greatly relieved. After applying the extract every four hours for nine or ten days it was out of all danger. I would persuade all who may be effected with any such disease to give the Eucalypti Extract a trial, and I am convinced that they will find it the most wonderful of medicines.—Yours, etc., E. J.
