Pittsburg, Aug. 31.- Under the leadership of Emma Haas, the Joan of Are of Camp Isolation, twenty-five women, wives of the strikers, marched to the mine back of Center, Pa., at 4 o'clock Tuesday morning and succeeded ir inducing four miners to stay out of the pit. The women were stopped several times by the deputies, but they forced their way past them and went ahead on their mission. The campers went to bed hungry Monday night and started out without breakfast Tuesday morning because of a mistake in shipping provisions to Sandy Creek camp instead of Plum Creek. A liberal supply of provisions was arranged for later.
