MINERS AT rRosrBuRc.
A Meeting Of knights Of Labor-Talk of
COmprOmIAe.


FRoSTDURG, April 5.-The session OF what
is believed to be the ExccutivcC Committee OF
the knights Of Labor was continued to-
day and no result reached. There were all
sorts Of rumors atloat here us 10 matters
that are under consideration, but nothing
reliable is known. The general opinion is
that the men are now beginning to dis
cuss the question whether or not they
should make any concessions in order
to bring about compromise with the
companies. So secret, however, are the
proceedings OF the body in session
here that there is actually a difference OF
opinion rs to what its character is. Some
say that it is the Executive COMMITTEES Of
the order, while others believe it TO be a
meeting OF special delegates from the local
assemblies. It's sessions will continue sew
eral days, and It is possible that u solution
Of the troubles may ut least be reached
next week. The miners are evidently be-
ginning to realize the difficulties OF Their
position, and It is said the companies arc
even more anxious for the resumption o.
work.
Duripgthe week ending Saturday, April
| 1, 1882, there were 5,22S7 Oh tons Of Goa
shipped from the Cumberland region o
this amount 1900 tons were from tue ELI
Garden mines. The shipment for the yea
10 date is db0,002 Is tons, IN increase o
50. 6O7 tons compared with 1881. Ship
ments by the Chesapeake and Ohio Cana
began to-day.

From the Stage Drivers Seat to Congress
and Back Again.

The New York Times thus speaks of
Frank Page, who was defeated for Con-
gress in the late election in California ;
Mr.. Page, in his brief Congressional
career, has achieved great success. As
stage-driver on the route between
Hangtown and Single Springs, Cal, he
won the goodwill Of all who were privi-
legged to ride on the box with him or
whose commissions he executed in the
mining hamlets through which he drove
a Concord coach In summer and ''mud-
wagon" in winter. Utbane when it was
profitable, but rough and ready when it
was necessary. Page captivated not only
the entire population between Single
and Hangtown, but his fame as fixer of
primaries and forcible orator when
convention was to be bull-dozed, spread
through all the region roundabout.
From Skunk's Misery to Murderer's
Bar and from Blue Tent to Yuba Dam.
he was known as a mighty politician.
When he was announced as candidate for
Congress the bloated aristocrats who wore
"boiled shirts and eschewed tobacco
WINGED a little. But political merit never
goes long unrewarded. The stage
driver threw down his lines, one fine day,
and walked into Congress and took his
seat. Under the present Administration
he became a prime favorite with the
