WEST vIRGINIA's STRIKE.
The POcahontas Miners sun mt work
Under Protection,

Bluefeld, W. Va, May 2-The strike
situation did not change much to-day. The
Pocahontas miners worked as usual, under
protection, and the output was about 100
cars. All the mines between that point
and WEIGH were closed down tonight. A
mass meeting was held at Simmons, at
which one faction expressed a wish to
resume work at the reduction. They were
in the minority, but their attitude was
significant. The big Pocahontas mine is
the key TO the situation. If the men there
can be induced by fair means or foul to
come out the strikers will have a good
chance to succeed. Both sides are alert
Charleston, w Va. May 2.-There is
nothing new at the capital relative to the
strike along the Norfolk and Western rail
road, but Gov. McCorkle is ready TO act
at any moment. United States Marshal
Garden notified Supt. Hippey of the Nor
folk and Western railroad that he could
not act unless an injunction is issued from
the United States court prohibiting the
strikers from interfering with mail trains
or obstructing interstate commerce.

THE GULF STREAM.
How Its Course Could ne Diverted 20
the Pacific Ocean.

From the Scientific American.
The course Of the Gulf Stream could be
changed by cutting across the Isthmus OF
Panama a channel Of sufficient size to ad-
nit the passage Of the water forming it,
The stream would then iow into the Pa
cihc ocean and no longer cross the Allan

does. The Gulf Stream is an equalizer OF
water as well as heat. If the water re-
manned equally distributed. there would
be no ocean currents.

shores north and south.
The islands forming the Caribbean sea
act on the principle of hreakwater or

The warmth of the stream is accounted

counter currents also. This theory rests
upon the assumption that the water is

continent of America so 1t will lie east

IL there We're no other land on the globe
than America there would be no ocean
currents except those connected with
America. but such Is not the case.
Africa has her nose in the way, Aus
tralia and New Zealand intervene. and
Asia is there TO stop tides and make ocean
currents In the Pacific ocean. So when
we find large bodies of land directly in the
path Of the tides we find ocean currents
also. All large oceans have their coun-
ter currents or eddies. The water that
has been carried west by the tides has no
return as currents to supply the dehcien-
cy, thus impartng the eddy motion. The
tides and the winds, with the land and its
formations. will produce every circum-
stance connected with the ocean currents.
The peculiar formation of the land has
a good deal to do about getting up the
Gulf stream.

THE SHAKERS IDEAS OF MEDl-
CINE.

Nowadays when a man goes to his doc
tor, he is usually told that he has some
unheard-of disease with long name, and
when he leaves the office he does not
know whether it is st. Vitus' Dance or
consumption that is gradually undermin-
ing his health
the Shakers, for their very simplicity
commands confidence and respect, and we
have the further satisfaction Of knowing
that they have devoted themselves to the
study of disease and its cure for more
than a hundred years
The venerable old man whom the writer
saw was only too glad to discuss his pet
subject. He said that strange as IL might
seem, very few doctors realized that
three-quarters of the most prevalent dis
eases were all attributable to faulty diges-
ton.
He then went on to say that a child Of
average intelligence knows that putrid
meat or decaying vegetables are poison
Gus, and must be avoided, and yet these
ach in the freshest possible condition,
soon decompose unless digested and alb
In such cases the resulting poisons en-
ter the system, when aches and pains
weakness and debility soon follow as a
natural consequence.
1t was recognition Of this that led the
Shakers to devote their energies to the
perfection of product which would slim
ulate the digestive organs and assist
them to perform their proper work.
The hrst symptt IN OF dlsordered dtges-
ton is loss Of appetite, and the Shaker
Digestive Cordial is wonderfully eff
Gent in supplying any deficiency in this
respect, at the same time it relieves all
distress after eating. Furthermore as
was carefully explained by our venerable
friend il is absolutely harmless.
Better evidence of the Shakers conf
dence in 1t could not be found than in the
fact that they have placed Decent sam
pie bottles in the hands Of all druggists
assured that if once tried il will produce
such immediate and marked benefit that
