houses fill long past the last degree of
comfort, the English language becomes
an unknown tongue. The Sunday
after pay-day brings out the worst
features. The saloons aro tailed with
drinking men, and the town becomes a
pandemonium. The boarding houses
are the scenes of brawls and murder
over the barrels of beer and the buckets
of polenka."
On the other hand, Mr. J. M. Shrope,
who has worked among the miners for
eight years, teaching their children,,
says, in the Christian Herald, that there
are tens of thousands of miners' homes,
owned by themselves, containing or-
gans, pianos, hooks and many con-
veniences of lifp, paid for with money
earned at the (nines, Some of the
miners have bought good farms with
their wages. "The miserable shanties
pictured as being the homes of the
miners are either uninhabited or are
occupied by persons whom you cannot
get to live anywhere else. They pay
little or no rent for the shanties. 1f we
could only get these people to want to
live differently! They are not there
because they must, but because they
want to. They live cheaply, and save
the money.
At $henandpah, which contains the
greatest proportion of foreign miners of
any of the larger towns in the "Anthra-
cite," last winter a rumor wag circulated
among the Poles, Hungarians and Sia-
vonians that there was some crooked -
nems In one of the largest banking
institutions of the town. The rumor
was false, but the foreign population
came, lining the streets for equal•ee,
and withdrew their deposits, and
almost forged the bank to the wall.
The money on deppsit in the banks of
the mining towns is very largely the
savings of the miners.
"The day after the strike opened,
both banks at Mahony City bad such
heavy drafts made upon them that, had
it not been that the money was again
deposited in the afternoon by the
brokers, to whom the money was paid
for drafts. on Europe, the banks might

Two Goderich Boys Missing
Two Goderich boys, named Otwell
Todd and Robert Carey, aged 12
years, left Goderich on Wednesday
of last week and were last seen in
Clinton at noon. They were driving
a rat -tailed bay mare with square
box buggy. The boys were dressed
in grey suits with peak caps when
they left Goderich. One wore a red
sweater and the other a black over-
coat. One of the boys is a son of
Mr. A. M. Todd, of the Goderich
Star, and the other is a son of Mr. O.
F. Carey, a prominent insurance
agent.
The following appeared in the
London Advertiser of Tuesday last :
" Mr. O. F. Carey, of Goderich, father
of one of the two boys who ran away
from that town last week, is in the
city today in search of his son and
the latter's companion. He has
traced the boys through Clinton,
Mitchell and Stratford, to a point a
few mitea from this city, where the,
boys abandoned their livery rig. Mr
Carey found that the boys had stepped
at the house of a farmer named Rid
ley, five miles this side of Stratford,
where they had a meal, He learned
nothing further of thein until, on
reaching London, he met Constable
Cannons. The latter made some In-
quiries among the farmers and
butchers on the market and found
that a horse and rig had been aban-
doned on Friday night last by two
boys answering the description of
the missing lads, on Oxford street,
north of the asylum. Mr. Carey and
the constable wont to the spot and
found that the boys had been aeon
on Friday evening by a lumber of
Mr. Wm. Webster's family, a farmer,
living on Oxford street. The boys
unhitched their horse, threw the bar -
nese in the buggy and then ran
away. The horse was lett to graze
on the roadside till Sunday, when
Mr. Webster, in the presence of
several nelghbore, took 11 and the
buggy to his own farm. Mr. Carey
found that while the buggy answer-
ed the description of that obtained
by the boys from the Goderieh
livery, the animal did not. The
livery steed was a rat -toile') hay
bay mare, but the one abandoned
by the hada was a dark bay horse,
and an inferior anneal to that se-
cured I y the boys, They had evi•
dently made a trade, and perhaps j
got some money to boot. They had
no funds when they left Gaderieh, I
Mr. Carey is an insurance agent, and
as such often sent his son to the
livery for a horse and vehicle. It
was therefore easy for the lad to,
obtain the outfit."
