GET 80 CENTS A DAY.

The Anthracite Coal Miners Get the Low
est Wages Ever Reached.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 2O.-A dispatch
from Shenandoah, one Of the principal
coal producing points in the anthracite
region Of this state, says the news that
the anthracite miners are rapidly enroll
ing themselves with their bituminous
brethren in the United Workers Of
America is received with incredulity
there. The labor leaders acknowledge
that Organizers Fahey and Him have
established about sixty Assem- blies
embracing small mem bership
but they say that instead of increasing
the movement is steadily losing ground
On the other hand, a prominent labor
leader said to a reporter of the Associa-
ted Press today that the United Mine
Workers organization is rapidly adding
to its membership in the anthracite re-
gions.
Fifty-seven Assem- blies have been or
gained with an average membership
of 200 to $50 each. The condition of the
anthracite miners steadily grows worse.
Statistics which have recently been
gathered prove that their wages average
50 cents a day, which is the lowest figure
ever reached.

FEAsTED ON HORSE FLESH.
A Veterinary Surgeon Gives a Banquet

A Veterinary Surgeon Gives Banquet
to show How Good It Is.
New YORK, Dec. 2O.-A banquet Of
horse flesh was given by veterinary sur
Reons at the house of James d. Hopkins
OF Newark, last evening The kitchen
was given over to the chef and his as
sIstants, the dining rooms and parlors to
the guests, the ladies OF the doctors fam
Hy having been bAnished 10 the upper
regions.
Three walters kept up constant com
munlcatiOn between the table and the
kitchen and the doctor kept his place at
the head of The table throughout the
evening greeting each new conner and
urging him to eat or repeating the his
tory Of the horse they were eating and
telling how wholesome horse flesh is and
how he expects il to take its place in the
markets Of the country in a short time to
be sold on its merits
The most practical argument for the
introduction Of horse meat, however, was
the manner in which il was served up on
this occasion and it seemed certain that
the rich as we'll as the poor would be
convinced of its merits if they could
get it cooked as DR.. Hopkins
had it prepared last night There
was horse tail soup, soup richly
navored and nOurishing; boiled saddle Of
horse with horse radish sauce and brOiled
fenderlOius Of horse. while the piece de
resistance was rib roast.
1 here was pot roast and plenty of
broiled steaks, and Dreaded outlets with
all Imaginable soups and relishes ard
variety Of vegetables. There was q great
deal Of jocular conversation at the
table and all sorts Of horse talk
but not the slightest indication of qualm-
lshness. Every body went there with
the intention of eating what the doctor
had prepared, and the first taste Of the
palatable soup encouraged all to 60 on
with the courses.
The verdict was generally expressed
by comparisons with beef, though some
said the meat reminded them of elk and
venison, but all seemed to agree that 1t
was better than the average beef in
flavor and texture.
DR.. Hopkins explained how he got the
horse that inspired him to get up the
banquet, and did not disguise that the
animal WAS old; that It had been in the
possession of one man for twenty years,
and was at least six years old when he
bought it. The owner did not want to
sell il into a life of hardship and asked
the doctor 10 kill it. The doctor
then decided to give a horse flesh
banquet and he had the animal killed,
bled and cut up by butcher. The meat
WAS hung in refrigerator for two weeks
before it was served
The soup was made of the tail and
shins and the choice parts were cooked
in the various ways by one Of the leading
cooks Of the city Then at least one
hundred invitations were issued and
fully one half Of those who were invited
attended the feast

NEW YORK, Dec. 2O.-A mass meeting
was held in the Hanson Place Baptist
church last night at the call of the
league for the enforcement of the law in
Brooklyn. and the crowd which filled the
house was treated to a surprise.
The agents of the society had pressed
the hand camera into service and there
we're shown up on a mighty screen with
the aid Of stereopticon some big repro
ductions of snap shots taken last Sunday.
The exhibition was given by 4. DeQuincy
Tully
The greater part Of the views were
saloon exteriors, showing uniformed po-
Icemen standing idly in front of the
doors while children with beer cans were
entering by the side door or coming out
with froth- crowned pitchers.
In more than one instance the lecturer
explained the unerring camera had
taken the policeman's number The
figures on the official shields were indis-
tinct on the scene, but it is said that the
mum bers have been a matter of record
for use elsewhere.
The utter uncOnsciousness of the fig
ures IN the picture to the presence Of q
camera fiend was one OF the features of
the collection.

BRYAN ON THE ssPLAN.'
How the CapitaIistic Glass Is Favored
Against the People.

Against the People.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 2O-"The president
has endorsed Mr.. Carlisles plan and the
banking committee will probably report
a bill substantially along the lines laid
down in the secretary's report" said
Congressman w. j. Bryan Of Nebraska.
today lit will in all probability pass
the house, but may not get through the
senate. The silver sentiment is relatively
stronger in the senate because the west
ern states are for silver and are equal IN
votes to large eastern states IN tho senate
but are not equal in the house. Aside
from the fact that the adoption of the
presidents plan would delay the
restoration of bimetallism and raise up
q multitude of people who would op-
pose free silver lest it might inter
fere with the profitable business Of issu-
ing bank notes, the plan is fundam entail
" wrong in principle and dangerous in
policy, and will be found full Of objec-
tions in practice. In giving the banks
the right to issue money upon payment
Of one half Of per cent on the circula-
ton. it virtually loans to the banks at
that rate of interest the difference, IS
per cent Of the capital and the 30 per
cent of that amount to be deposited in
green backs and Sherman notes. In other
words. the government would loan
@52. 500 on a capital Of 100000.
AT time like this" he continued,
when the masses are criticising
the government because Of favor
itism in legislation. we cannot afford
to loan to the capitalist at one-half
of / per cent, and then say to the less
fortunate. we cannot loan to you, but
You can borrow of the capitalist At from
6 to 10 per cent The farmers aud bust
ness men have as much reason rs the
bankers to ask for the right to issue
money. There is no other objection
equally strong. If the banks issue money
they control the volume of the currency
and can expand or contract it at viii.
Such q power is too enormous to sntrust
to private parties, who may use it for
their own pecuniary profit. The cry has
gone up that the government must go
out Of the banking business.' 1t ought
to be met by the response that the banks
must 60 out of the governing business.
