MINERS AT WORK.

Knoxville, Tenn, Sept. miners
are at work in the Jellico district to-
day Notwithstanding the operators
and leaders of the miners have been
unable to arrive at any agreement.
Several men are digging in the mines
of the East Tennessee company and
operators are now confident that by
next week all of the fifteen mines
in the Jellico district will be in opera
ton. Miners occupying company
houses and refusing TO work win re-
ceive notice to yacate at once. This
plan is more readily effective on the
Tennessee than on the Kentucky side,
thirty days notice being required on
the blue grass side. Local operators
are confident that the national labor
organizations will be greatly surprised
at the large number of union men who
will be at work in few days.

POISON IN EGGS.

Metropolis, ILL.,, Sept. IA whole
sale poisoning occurred in the family
of Henry Miller, living in the suburbs
of this city, The poison was said TO
have been administered by Nora Mil
Ter, daughter of Mr.. Miller, in scram-
bled eggs, at breakfast. Only one
death has occurred up to this hour,
that of a baby girl aged rs months.
The others of the family who are in
a very serious condition are Henry
Miller, his wife, Simon, Albert, Oscar,
Jake and Agnes Miller, and Sophia
Schafer, a servant.
Nora Miller is generally thought to
be demented. She was not affected
by the poison. There is little hope for
the recovery of the father, and it is
possible that two or three other mem
bers of the stricken family will lose
their lives.

To Stop Election Bribery.

Mr.. George r. Gather, Jr. is making a
study of the bribery at elections with the
intention of the preparation of a bill 70"
introduction into the next Legislature de-
signed to correct the practice of using
money at elections to influence voters
While there is law covering the question
as far as purchasers of voters are concern
ed, there is none to include the sellers.
Mr. Gather designs that adequate punish
ment be mcted out to those who would
sell their votes. The bill will also require
candidates to file with some State official
an itemiZed account of money expended
for campaign expenses. Committees and
others having in charge candidates. cam
paign will be compelled to perform similar
service. This is feature of the New York
law. Still another feature is that if it
should be proved that any candidate re-
turned as elected bribed voter to vote
for him, or if a voter was bribed by some
other person, the candidate receiving this
vote shall be isbarred from assuming the
office to which he had been ostensibly
elected. This is the main feature of the
English law. Mr.. Gather said that brib-
erv at elections in this State is becoming
so rampant that some step must be taken
to stamp out the practice, or the safety of
our institutions will be endangered.-B Bal

Discussing School Matters.

The annual meeting of the School Com
missioners of Maryland was held at the
State Normal School building last week.
Col. Charles B. Rogers, secretary and eX-
aminer of the Baltimore county School
Board, was present and on Wednesday
gave an able review of the conditions at
present prevailing in the county public
schools and condemned the disadvantages
of the grading system where the depart
mental system could be easily introduced.
He said that the departmental system had
been tried in eight schools in Baltimore
county and that the results had been most
satisfactory. If he had it in his power, he
declared, he would introduce the system
in all schools having three or more teach
ers. The paper was discussed at consid-
cradle length.
Mr.. H. A. McComas, of Hagerstown,
took position in favor of the consolida-
tion of country schools and the transpor-
tation of pupils from a distance at the ex-
pense of the county where the local or
district schools were poorly attended. He
cited the practices of several New England
States in support of his views, and claimed
that the adoption of the plan would not
only furnish such pupils the advantages
of graded school, but that the expenses
of the transportation would not be as
great as the expenses for the support of a
separate school for such children.
Mr.. James L. Bryan, of Dorchester
county. Endorsed Mr. McComas' views,
and said that he was sure that the system
would be advantageous for his county.
