Prof. o. c. Marsh says that the re-
searches OF the last twenty years have
confirmed the opinion that the animals
called edentates, which include sloths.
ant-eaters, armadillos. etc, originated
In North America. and afterward NIL
grated TO other parts Of the world.
Some OF the edentates Of former times
were creatures OF immense size, such
as the extinct glyptodon, whose great
convex shell was remarkable for
strength. why such a form as the
glyptodon should have failed 10 keep

Attempt to Evict Striking Miners Results
PITTsBURG, Sept. S.-The efforts to
.vict the striking miners OF the Fits
burg and Chicago Coal company at
Orangeville, resulted in a riot OF no
mean proportions and the utter fall
ure on the part of the company to &C.
complish it's object. Each of n ~
deputies was armed with a Winchester
rife and a revolver, but in spite OF
this, the strikers, headed by 100 Polish
women, closed in on them, and the
deputies received rough treatment.
They were gradually forced back and
Snally retreated to Gastonville where
they remained in the company's office
all night. In the morning the dep
uties sailed out from their besieged
quarters and started to march to
Orangeville. Headed by the women,
the strikers rushed on the deputies with
stones, clubs and pick handles and the
blows fell thick and fast. This attack
continued for some time and several OF
the deputies were seriously injured, but
they refrained from firing on the mob.
Finally, by the use Of a flag OF truce,
a parley was held which ended in the
deputies agreeing to leave the town,
which they did, being marched to the
train by the strikers.

Pittsburg Delegates to the Columbus Con-

PITTsBURG, Sept. S.-The convention
of mine workers to select delegates to
the Columbus convention was one of
the largest ever held and probably has
not been before equalled in excitement
and Importance. The future of thou
sands of miners, their wives and chill
dren, depended on the action of the
gathering. Although the rank and file
OF the delegates seemed imbued with
the idea that the operators were ready
TO throw up their hands and pay the
B9-cent rate demanded by the strikers,
President Dolan, by excellent diplo-
macy, tact and perseverance, kept the
miners so well within bounds, hat the
delegates from this district will go to
Columbus with instructions to use
their discretion in settlement of the
difficulty.
President Dolan will use every en-
deavor to bring the convention into line
for the acceptance of the compromise
rate and knows he has a task confront
ing him. Many delegates from other
states, notably Illinois and Ohio, will
go into the convention with a deter
-mination to hang out for the 69-cent
rate in spite of the wish of the national
officers.

1HE END PREDICTED
President Ratchford Believes
Miners Will Accept the
Compromise Rate.
Means an Increase in Wages
of at Least 100000
for the Year.
UninStructed Delegates to the
Convention From Pitts
l. burg District.

MAssILLoN, O., Sept. 8.-President
Ratchford of the miners Organization
has started for Columbus to attend the
Nass convention there. He said he be-
heved the miners would accept the 90.
cent rate and return to work.
'.The miners will meet the PROPOSE
ton like men," he said, "and will be
guided by their Judgment rather than
their desires. Our executive council
was unanimous in its recommended
tons, each member like myself feeling
that it was his duty to make known the
actual condition and recommend &C.
cording to his Judgment. With this
done the case rests in the hands OF the
miners, and if they see fit to continue
the strike the responsibility OF their
failure will be theirs and not their Off
cials. I do not, however, anticipate
any such continuance. The miners
will accept and resume work in a few
days.
Have aimee Millions in Wages.
"The advance demanded is 10 cents a
ton. The proposed compromise gives
us II cents a ton, or 4 cents less than
our demand. The gain to the Ohio
miners alone by the increase would
amount annually to ST., 45O, 600. Add to
this a proporionate advance to all
branches of labor around the mines and
st will increase the amount to nearly
50, 600, 900 to be divided between $4,000
= 49,
alone. Garry this line of reasoning to
the other states and it will be found
that the total gains to the miners OF
those states will exceed $4,000, OOO. On
Jan. l another increase, in my judg-
ment, will take place, though Lam I'M
able to say what the amount may be-"

the few representatives of the miners

ton, states that he cannot vote to &C
scept the proposed settlement Of the
strike. He refused to sign the propo-

he cannot do otherwise than oppose the
settlement, since the Illinois operators
have notified him that they will not

Carson thinks that if the agreement is
