BOSTON, Oct. %5—Only one disorderly | demonstration marked the third day of the strike of the messenger boys em- | | ployed by the American District Tele- | graph Company. Throughout the day sev- | eral strikers were on picket duty in the vicinity of the Western Union Telegraph Company’s main office on Main street.| | The pickets tried to induce many of the | girl strike-breakers to stop work, but| | genegally without any attempt at In- timidation. { | Later in the day one of the girls was followed by several boys, yelling at and threatening her. The girt paid no atten- tion to the crowd umtil one of the boys struck her and then she struck back. | | This was the signal for an attack on her | | by the entire crowd. which had grown to | | large proportions. Several men rushed to the girl's aid and protected her until policemen, by free use of their clubs, scattered the strikers and their sympa- thizers. The girl dellvered the message and returned to the office under police escort. At @ meeting of the Building Trades Council to-day a committee was appoint- | ed to arrange for an indignation meeting to protest against the employment of | girls. |~ The newsboys donated $15 for the benefit | of the strikers and have declared an as- | sessment of 10 cents a week from each member. Resolutions were passed by the news- boys denouncing the telegraph company for what they termed “tyrannic action in discharging faithful employes without a | hearing and without cause. ———e— | Fire Visits a Summer Resort.

Mrs. Iverson, who is about 32 years old and of Danish descent, has spent most of her life in Sallnas, where she was highly respected. She was of a pleasant dispo- sition and had never given any Indica- tions of Insanity. She was a devout mem- ber of the Danish Lutheran Church, but has never shown any tendency to relig- jous mania.

About three weeks ago, | thinking that a change of scene and afr | might benefit his wife, Iverson took her, with their four children, to Pacific Grove and Installed them in a cottage. | Mrs. Iverson had saild she would be back in Salinas last night and when her | eight-year-old son arrived home llonel both Iverson and his mother-in-law, Mrs. were _thunderstruck.
