LOOKS FOR A SETTLEMENT.
President DebS Thinks the Great North
ern Management viii Come TO Terms.

-
ST. PAUL, MINI, April 3O.-"We ex-
pect TO win this strike within forty
eight hours" was the way President
Debs stated his views to a reporter to-
day. He said he made the statement
on the authority of the general mana
ger Of another road who told him that
Mr.. Hill would grant the demanded ad-
vance to all remaining classes OF en-
ployes within that time. Passenger
trains are sent out as usual to-day ex-
cept that the Breckinridge train was
held on the river TO take on 100 deputies
for that point. President Deos claimed
to have received Information from both
trement and engineers that they would
stay by the union Notwithstanding the
raise in wages promised by the company,
but the latter claim TO have messages
from them promising to stand by the
company. The conference was In ses-
sion in Minneapolis this afternoon be-
tween Mr.. Debs and representatives of
the commercial bodies, OF the two cities
looking to settlement by arbitration.

PIrrsBURG, April ao.-Colonelw. p.
Rend returns 10 Chicago tonight with
out having succeeded In getting the
coal operators to agree to conference
looking TO . settlement OF the strike.
He says: "A number OF mine owners
are willing TO compromise bv allowing
portion OF the demands, but
many OF the principal operators OF
Indiana and Illinois practically declare
they will have nothing whatever TO do
with any interstate sgreemen: fixing
the prices OF labor. In Pennsylvania
several of the largest mining companies
refuse TO join In any plan contempla-
ting an advance in the rates OF mining
regardless OF a coal famine or any
other consequences that might occur.
IL is evident then, that the operators
cannot be brought together
IN GENERAL CONVENTION.
The strike must be stopped soon TO
avert serious injury. In this crisis "a
is imperative that concessions be made
on both sides. The miner Is entitled TO
better pay, but a. the same time the
operator has been forced TO reduce
wages through intense competition and
over reproduction. have suggested a
compromise which will give the miners
an advance OF Is TO 20 per cent on prices
paid at the time OF suspension and afull
restoration OF rates when times will
justify"
Colonel Rend denies that he is about
TO surrender to the miners except on
the compromise basis suggested above.

DICKENS FIGURES IN REALIZE
Suicide of Woman Like Character
in Great Expectations"

L AJL4A L4C 1@OlluOu Odlly news.
Fuller details are now given out about
the suicide of Mile. Alice Pinard Doges
whose death has caused some sation
in Paris. The lady was not so young as
at first represented. She was a musician
of talent, and about ten years ago, when
in the bloom of her beauty, attracted the
attention of an. ex-senator, who is a mem
Der of the League for the Suppression of
Indecent Exhibitions in Public Places. an
association which has been subjected to
much sarcasm and denunciation during
the past two years. 1t is said that the
ex-senator who was a family man when
he fell in love with the lady, spoke about
divorcing his wife, and, on the strength
of an alleged promise of marriage, the re-
lations between the two became very in
innate. Four years since the ex-senator
was divorced from his wife and married
another woman.
Quite lately Mile. Pinard- Doges heard
of her friends marriage She accordingly
went to the ex-senator's residence and he
refused to receive her. Regardless of
the attempts made to prevent her en-
trance, she reached his study and VIC
lently unbraided him for his conduct. In
returning to the door by which she had
entered the residence, Mile. Pinard-Doges
had to pass through the dining-roOm
she stopped for few moments and cried
out that she was going to kill herself, but
that before she died she desired 20 in
woke the divine malediction on the house.
Mile. Pinard-Doges then went home,
dressed herself in the white wedding
robes which she had prepared in view of
her marriage, and suffocated herself by
charcoal fumes. Such is the true history
of the latest social tragedy in Paris The
Inflated lady lived at Neuilly, where she
was known as "Peternelle tiancee," owing
to her habit of dressing in white. She
left seven letters behind her One was
addressed to the local COmmissary of
Police, who was asked to prevent post
norton examination, as the deceased did
not want a secret to be divulged which
she intended to carry with her to the
grave. The other letters were directed
to the sister OF the deceased, who is in
Austria, to a lady friend, and to the ex-
Senator
The funeral of Mile. Pinard-Doges took
place according to the rites of the French
Protestant church. The ex-senator, who
was also once pastor, has made a state
ment to the effect that he never promised
marriage to the deceased, and that he
broke off all relations with her five years
ago. He further adds that he never
made any mystery about his second mar
riage, for it was announced in the news
papers.

ETYMoLoGY OF A DISH.
Welsh Rarebit is Not a "Rarebit'' at
All, But Rabbit.

Caterer Murrey, of the House restau-
rant, insists that a fragrant misapprehen-
sion prevails in regard to that high-spiced
dish Welsh rarebit. 1t appears from the
result of Mr.. Murrey's profound re-
searches that the rarebit has been con-
sumed by millions from time immemorial
under fatal misnomer.
at is not rarebit at all y said he to a
group of friends yesterday, mot a bit of
it. The proper spelling of the word is
Welsh rabbit and you will find it on the
bill of fare of this restaurant
Some one asked for the etymology of
the word.
well, you see," said the popular res
tarauteur, many of our standard dishes
had their origin in nicknames on the
dishes of the barons, by which the poor
diners of Great Britain and those who
often had nothing but potatoes on their
tables sought to apply leveIng influence
to their condition and that of the rich
whose tables groaned under the weight of
delicious viands A Norman capon, for
example, stripped of its high-souuding
appelation becomes an humble herring
A 'capon-in-poi was prepared in this
wise A dish of mashed potatoes was
placed in the middle of the table with a
herring standing upright in the center.

at the herring and the mother and father
ate the herring. l could go on in this way
without end and illustrate to you how
these names arise in culinary nomencla-
ture, but as l am the author of a CASTRO
nomic dictionary, which explains the
science in detail under proper heads,
these examples will suffice"
But as to the etymology of Welsh rab-
bit, persisted the questioner.
las to the etymology of Welsh rabbit,
the explanation is this, began Murrey,
but here the culinary expert of the House
restaurant was interrupted by business,
which called him to another part Of the
ROOM and the explanation is still due.
"I'll tell you how it is" said the man
who wanted the etymolOgy of Welsh rab-
bit. "Murrey has written a gastronomic
dictionary, only the sample pages of
which have made their appearance. 1t
will rival the Century dictionary in vol
ume, and he is now working up public
curiosity on subjects treated of in order
TO sell his book. Welsh rarebit is good
enough for me, until get an explanation
why it should be spelled rabbit
