Railroad Coal Miners Demand Last Years

Railroad Coal Miners Demand Last Years
Wages and VIII Take No Less.
PITTsBURG, April 4.-The railroad coal
miners of western Pennsylvania met here
to-day, and decided to demand the same
wages as last year, viz, 76 1-2 cents per ton.
1t was resolved, however, that no agree
ment be entered into with the operators
until the result of the popular vote now in
progress In Illinois. Indiana and Ohio be
known. If the miners of these States favor
lower rate than 76 1-2 cents per ton, then
the officials are to make the best terms pos
sble with the operators. w. I. Lewis, ma
tional secretary of the Progressive Union.
was present at the convention, and made
an address reviewing the situation. He
said there were some eight thousand miners
in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois
who were voting or had voted upon scale
of wages to rule after May /. A report, he
said. had been received from five thousand
miners, and they were unanimous In favor
of last years wages Nowhere have the
miners decided to accept the ooerators'
terms, which demand a reduction. Mr..
Lewis was asked by reporter as to whether
there would likely be strike, and he replied
that as far as the miners were concerned
they were certainly determined not to ac-
cept a reduction. The coal operators were
surprised when they learned the result Of
the convention. They stated very forclbly
that the wages demanded by the miners to-
day would not be paid, and that the Miners
Progressive Union could order a strike if
they so desired.
Refuse to Recognize the Brotherhood.
ST. LOUIS, April 4.-One hundred and
fifty boss carpenters this morning offered to
meet the strikers and compromise on basis
of S5 cents per hour, and eight hours work.
but declined to recognize the Carpenters'
Brotherhood. The strikers were willing to
compromise, but demanded, in addition,
recognition Of the Brotherhood. The latter
clause the bosses refused to acquiesce in, and
negotiations were therefore again broken

If a man could only stand thirty
or forty yards from the muzzle of a
gun and watch the charges of shot
fly past him he would be astonished
at what he saw. The shot not only
spread out into widening target as
they fly, but they string out one be-
hind the other to a much greater dis
tance than they spread. Thus with
a cylinder gun, when the first shot
of a charge reach a target that is
forty yards away the last shot are
tagging along ten yards behind.
Even with choke bored guns they
lag behind eight yards in forty. This
accounts for the long swath that is
moved in flock of ducks on whom
the charge Of shot fall just right.
About six per cent onlyof the charge
Of shot arrive simultaneously at the
target but the balance of the first
half of the charge is close behind
that a birds muscles are not quick
enough to get out of the way,
although those who have watched
sitting birds shot at have often seen
them start as if to fly when the
leading shot whistles by them, only
to drop dead as they were overtaken
by the leaden hail that followed.

Growth.

Before the altar, hand In hand, as now,
Unquestioning, she gives the solemn vow,
With girlhood bloom and grace and
innocence.
The measure Of all good that in life lies
The being holds in ber impassioned eyes,
Whose lightest words thrill with joy
intense,
Her heart has room for one alone.
OF all the world the chosen one.
Dead leaves above his grave the winds
have blown,
While endless days TO darkened years have
grown.
In life that seemed so fair to youths
fOnd eyes.
Through paths of flaming fire her feet have
trod
The nights that lead up to the tn. one OF
God;
Grown big with its bitter agonies.
Now her great mothers heart can hold
The great worlds sorrows manifold.
