adult males. n+arl. 5000 are boys of

ing the remainder of the time. In
newer mines there is but one set of
men who work IL hours, with a short
intermission. Other mines aIlot An
employee As hours a week-6 hours on

work is generally carried on both hav

shifts, one from 6 A NJ. t. 6 +. NJ ard
the other from 6 p 81, with a rest of
an hour or two. In thu iron mines

Profit Sharing BY CUal Company
Three years ago the Campbell 8
Creek Coal Company, in the Kan.
awha Valley, commenced the sharing
of profits with its men, and OH the
first occasion divided something over
5000. Last year the amount was
much less, because the profits were
smaller. The result this year is
shown in the announcement that on
September 10Th the company will
divide ~, 500 among the men. The
money is given out in proportion to
the amount OF wages the men earn,
aud the next distribution will give
each man All average Of about 500
Besides sharing the profits the COM
pahy does sort of insurance business
among the miners in novel and
commendahle manner. In that dis
trict the miner is "dock-d," or for.
felts a certain amount OF his wages
when the coal he turns out has over
y Fixed p-rc~ntage Of slate. The
company mentioned takes the dock
age acc"rding TO the general custom,
but that amount, instead of going to
the company, is put into a fund ter
the benefit of the men. From this
fund the men are entitled to draw "a
Der week when sick On several &C.
cmsions, WHEN through numerous DE-.
mands this fund has become ex-
hausted, the firm r. p'enishedi' temper
ariIv. In another wa> this company
and IT. employees have moved tog' th-r
for the common good. In that To-
cality tie public schools are op""
oniv about four months i" the year.
To continue the schools for niue
months each year the miners pay each
twenty cents per month into a private
school fund. The effect of this plan
of sharing profits, and the mutual
good feeling between tn" men aud
their employers, Is plainly apparent
The men are contented ant steady;
t,ey have improved morally and
oh, sicaHy.

Startling Suicide Of a Girl.

letter received at Charlotte, n c., brings
the particulars of an unusual occurrence in
Grayson county, Va, just across the line Miss
Amia Curtis committed suicide under rather
remarkable circumstances, as we'll as in re-
markable manner. For several days she had
been attending prayer meeting in the neigh
borhood. Much local interest had been aroused
by the meetings. At several recent services
Miss Anna went forward and knelt as a peni-
tent at the mourners' bench. Last Sunday
morning the young lady arose as the services
were about to commence and said she hoped
all would pray for her, as she could not stand
any longer the burden of sin which she was
carrying on her soul. The congregation prayed
for her and the preacher tried to speak words
OF comfort to her, but still the burden was not
moved. The meetings were held in an old
school house building and in the yard was
well As feet deep. While the congregation was
singing a hymn Miss Amia quietly arose from
her seat, and leaving the building went quickly
to the well and began to climb upon the cover
This alarmed some of the congregation. who
were watching her movements, and they rushed
out toward her, but before they could reach
her she gave a cry, You needn't pray any
more!' and plunged into the WELL With ter
rible splash the body of the unfortunate young
lady struck the water 45 feet below. Three
women tainted and q dozen others had to be
carried home. Miss Curtis was eighteen years
old, Of excellent parents and there was no
blotch on her character. When the body was
recovered life WAS extinct

The senator was in the governors office in con-

Maglnnis when the officer endeavored to arrest
him. At o clock two democratic senators appro-
peared in the chamber, and communication
was received from the governor relating to APP
prlations necessary to carry on the state gov
ernment. The same communication was re-
ceived by the democratic house. Secretary of
State Rothwill has refused to affix the official
state seal to the certificates Of Senators-elect
Clark and Maginnis. The governor has issued
the certificates and the two democrats will leave
tor Washington probably next Monday. The
republican Senators-elect are expected to leave

BRlCE IS AHEAD.
Belief That He VIII be Nominated on
the Second Ballot.

The democratic caucus at Columbus, Ohio,
to nominate candidate for United States Sem
ator to succeed Henry B. Payne will meet to-
night in the house OF representatives. Tie
caucus will be an open one. There has not
been much change in the situation in the past
few days, except that many members Of the
legislature who were non-committal few days
ago have now declared themselves. The Cleve-
land kickers are out in force, headed by Judge
Biandin, who says that Brce can be beaten. In
this opinion he stands alone, however. Virgil
P. Kline, Martin A. Foran. and others are in
Columbus working against Brice.
The first ballot will stand about as follows,
interviews with legislators showing Brice "a,

McSweeney 2, Baker 8, Hunt 6. Geddes /, Nc

ond ballot Mr.. Brice will probably be nomi-
mated. He will receive on this ballot, his friends
assert, 81 votes, and 40 will nominate. Enough
members who are casting complimentary votes
have signited their intention Of voting for him
for second choice to nominate. Thomas talks
OF Withdrawing and has promised to transfer
his votes to Mcmahon, but they will not be
transferred as Thomas cannot deliver the goods
