BREAKING Up.

For the last three months great many
people have been housed up, because they
have not felt able to withstand the stormy
wintry weather that has prevailed. But
unfortunately the confinement and the close
air of modern houses during the winter
season, is very enervating, and the system
needs help to enable all the organs to do
their proper work. If these organs have
been inactive the consequences are show
ing themselves in the bilious condition of
the system, or in constipation of the bowels
or in disorders of the kidneys, with all the
aches and pains that accompany these
complaints. If You are in this condition
from any cause you should make a faithful
trial of that well known remedy Kidney
Wort. 1t acts at the same time on the
kidneys liver and bowels, and is therefore
especially fitted to correct this torpid con-
dltion of the system.

Miners Ask for More Paw.

CUMBERLAND, Md, April 17.-At
meeting of the miners from the
different mines in the Cumberland
region, held some time last we k, it
was decided to ask the companies to
increase the rate of mining coal from
40 to SO cents ton, the same as paid
before the reduction last December.
The presidents of the different coal
companies were to-day notified by
letter of the increase asked for by the
miners. In addition to the increase,
the letter asks for compliance with
the laws of Maryland in reference to
hours of labor, The increase is to
date from May l.
The miners claim that the reason
for asking for an increase is that they
are unable to maintain their families
on the present wages. 1t is also urged
that the men who are required to
work by the day have to work IL
hours without any increase of pay.
On March Is the companies posted
notice that after that date the men
would be required to work from A.
NJ. to 6 p, NJ, with one hour for dinner.
The men claim that they have to
work according to the notice or be
discharged, and that it is a vocation
of the law to ask them to work the
extra hour without extra pay. The
companies maintain that the cOndi-
ton of the coal market will not JUS
tify the slightest Increase. 1t is said
by some of the coal men to-day that
the request of the miners will not be
considered. The companies are still
bound together by their agreement
of 1882, and they have no idea of act
ing in any other way except as a
unit. The merchants, who have
heard of the miners request, claim il
will amount to nothing, as the miners
are not able to strike, not having full
ly recovered from their strike of 1882.
Some of the miners seem confident
that their request will begranted and
that they will have plenty of work
during the season.

81 WISH" said General Lee, "to do

render. it was then that Gen. Grant
Immediately issued the humane Or

to them. And that was not all. l
was giving orders to one Of my sub
ordinate officers. who was making
out a list of the things to be Surren
dered. l told him to include the
horses. At that very moment Gen.
Grant, who seemed to he paying no
attention to what was going on,
quickly rose from the camp-stool and
said: No, no. General Lee, no sur
render of the horses. Not one, not
one. Keep them all. Your poor peo'
pie will need them for the spring
crOps.' 1t was scene never to be for
gotten"
AS Lee spoke he paced the room,
and with tears streaming down his
cheeks repeated two or three times
this incident of the surrender.
L then asked him whom he thought
to be the greatest of Federal soldiers
