Pittsburg, Aug. 30.—Redoubling their vigilance throughout the strike district of the Pressed Steel Car com- pany at McKees Rocks the Pennsyl vania state troopers are taking every precaution to prevent a recurrence of rioting and bloodshed. Admittedly the situation is extremely tense. ‘Wholesale desertions of imported workmen and subsequent stories told by the men of alleged brutality ac- served to create decided resentment among strikers and their sympathiz- ers. Troopers, deputy sheriffs and spe- clal police are content to remain close to the mill. Targe gatherings of men along the Ohio river bank, near the plant, are not disturbed by the troop- ers, who claim the workmen are out- side their jurisdiction. During the forenoon thirty men who arrived from Chicago were taken into the mill and no further desertions ‘were reported. Cards threatening death are being recelved through the mail by minor officers of the company. YOUTHFUL BURGLAR ACTIVE Confesses to Blowing Eleven Safes in a Month.

Dainty Drinks at our Fountain Special- ists Blindfold Buying The man who rushes blindly into the first yard he comes to when he buys lumber will never get round shouldered carrying the money he saves by such tactics. Those who reason that all lumber is alike because it looks alike, have several more guesses coming. There’s as much difference in lumber as there is in shoes or clothes, and you don’t buy those with your eyes shut, do you? As lumber is supposed to last a long time, quality should be the first consideration in buying. Your money talks here, of course, but what you get for your money, talks more yet, Our rule of quality first—then price—satisfaction always—doesn’t leave any chance of blindfold lumber buying at this yard.
