A gentleman, who has quite a
large farm, stated to the Herald
Monday, thaft instead of the late
pains, followed by clear dry weath-
er, increasing the bowl weevil, it
had been death to them. The
young ones, he said, were by the
moisture in the ground able to
break their[ shells or cysts and had
come tq the surface hy thousands,
but that the hot sun had oooked
their tender bodies and that any
one who would examine closely
would find them dead. The idea,
be said, that the weevil eggs were
only laid iu the eqt^qn squares,
was absUTd. Tl?cy \yere in the
ground near the roots of the cotton,
as all should know.—Hallettsyille
Herald.
The examining trial of Mr. Rob-
ert R. Stafford^ charged with the

Saturday before Justice W. S. Mil-
ler. The evidence would occupy
too much space fqr publication and
developed gome facts somewhat
different from the first version.
Judge Miller held the accused to
bail in the sum of $10,000, which
was given, and he went to Beau-
mont.—Columbns Citizen,

THERE IS PRACTICAL-
LY NOTHING NEW.
Both Sides Ciaim the Lead, With the
Best Show in Favor of the Mills—
Schwab Won't Talk.
Pittsburg, Pa., July 1J>.-—While
Wellsviile was the pivot point
around which all interest in the
great strike was concentrated yes-
terday on accouut of a large mass
meeting held there, two moie
points aro on the map now to which
all those interested in the strike
are looking. These points are Van-
dergrift, Pa , and Duncanville, Pa.
At VVellsville, Ohio, the situation
remains practically Unchanged, or
if there is a change at all, it is in
favor of the mills shortly going into
full operation. Manager Smith
claims to have forty men at work
and he says he will have a com-
plete force by Ifehmday.
Developments are 'aftxiously
watched. A delegate from this
city went there last night with the
intention of organizing the men
and if he succeeds,they will go out,
which means that every plant of
the American Steel Hoop company
will be idle.
At Vandergrift the situation is
•till favorable to the company, al-
though the Amalgamated people
are not leaving a stoneJinlurned to
get men to join thern.^
At the upper and lower non-un
ion mills of Carnegie's, men were
engaged at work as usuil and there
is no evidence of difsatisfaction,
notwithstanding the persistent ru-
mors of the unionizing of these
mills and the probability of a
sympathetic strike.

THE STREET FAIR.
LaGrange is to have a street fair.
—Smithville Times.
Just so, neighbor, but not yet.
decided upon. At the last meet-
ing of the Board of Trade, J. W.
Blaise, Leo Frede and G. A. Stier-
ling were appointed to see into the
feasibility of having that street
fair, but as yet have not been able
to give any encouraging report.
It is the earnest hope of the Jour-
nal that the aforesaid gentlemen
will permit nothing to interfere
with their efforts to interest the
public and make the street fair an
assured fact. And there's no
reason in the editor's mind why
we shouldn't have one.
A fair will attract the attention
of every person iu Fayette county
-x=rwt to say anythiug of adjoining
counties—and many a dollar will
be placed in the hands of th& home
people. A little reminder—ju§t
for argument's sake —will be made
by referring hack to the time when
the ladies of LaGrang^ gave that
three day's fair at the Casino.
15 very body wha could, attended,
and just such a^ucoets can be had
with the street fair, if the proper
spirit is shown and exercised.
The efection of booths, stalls,
etc., will enable the merchants to
advertise their goo^g in an admir-
able and the public will
naturally feast upon the uice ar-
rangements and admire the quai«
ity of the goods and taate of the
buyer, fh&n premiums will be
awarded to the ow ners of fine stocky
poultry, etc., and butter, ohee e
and preserved bruits, not to say
anything of fanoy needlework, will
he prominent features. Numerous
other displays could be made and
the regular routine of a daj^'s mo-
notony would reeeive a wet blank-
et for a short period, while the
people generally would learn to
appreciate the pleasures of life%
Let's make a movement towar<p&
having that st e^ fair.—LaGrange
