tons of coal.
NOW that the company has played its
card and showed its hand that it intends

what to expect. and will make the next
move. Ihat they have something up
their sleeve there is no doubt. and ii is
safe to assert that they will not sit pass

The company is paying off at the new

engagements to ship in 400 miners, and
that they will be mere in a few days.
They will be paid the new scale of wages,

as the Old scale.
More deputies arrived today, and more
will be in, and as far is the is
concerned the strike is off. Tn pay roll

ADLAL.

Hall Adlai may find that he has under
taken a little too much when he meets D.
A. Mcmillan IN the mat at the Grand OPP
era house next Wednesday night. Here
tofore Hall Adlai has wrestled mostly
with men weighing not over $50 pounds.
Mcmillan weights in the neighborhood of
30 pounds. and in all probability will find
him harder to handle han any man he
has met in America.
Hall Adlai has had a victorious career
ever since he came to this country. He
has made Isadore the Russian champion
look like a baby at a game of wrestling.
The Turk is prodigeous in size, scientific
in skill, and may be able to accomplish
the task he has undertaken. but it is safe
to predict that it will be the best exhibl-
ton of wrestling ever witnessed In the
northwest. -

CHARACTER GONE
Sc0tty Pearson Dropped Dead
Last Evening.
A TENDERLOlN MINSTREL
Who Had OUTLINED His Usefulness.
Coroner Will InveSti-
gate.

John Pearson. better known among his
dropped dead in the Grandon saloon on
lower Main street, about Z o'clock last
evening.
The circumstances surrounding the
sudden demise of Pearson would indi-
cate that his death was due to some
heart trouble. The case will be inveSti-
gated by Coroner Julien.
"Scotty" occupied a cabin in the rear
of the Grandon and much of his time
was spent in the saloon. He entered the
saloon about $50 last night and shortly
afterwards those who were in the bar
room heard a fall in the passageway
leading to the wine rooms in the rear Of
the place. Several went to the passage
way and found 'Scotty" lying on the
floor. He was carried into a wine room
and a physician summoned, but died
before the doctor arrived.
In the old days of the camp "Scotty'
prospered. He was something of a vio-
mist and played in the hurdy-gurdy
houses and furnished music for the social
functions occurring in the old Tenderloin.
The evolution of the camp into the city.
and the coming of better musicians, was
the occasion for the passing Of "Scotty.'
and his fiddle. The Tenderloin demand
ed better music than Scotty could fur
nish, and his vocation was gone. OF
late years he has been earning a pre-
carinus living doing d jobs around
saloons.
Pearson was about IS years of age.
The whereabouts of his relatives are
unknown.

of refrigeration, when the meat IS Kept
cold until il reaches the consumer.
After the Spanish war began. there
was a sudden demand for fresh beef.
1t was sent ~ vessels which were bad
ly equipped with refrigeraing process
ses. Vessels could not be quickly pre-
pared for this peculiar service. The
Comm. ssary department did the best
it could under the circumstances. the
meats imperfectly refrigerated became
worthless in a tropical climate, and
the troops suffered. The result was
precisely the same as It was in the
British experiments.
Instead of taking advantage of these
costly British experiences the govern
ment, under the great demand for fresh
meat, undertook to do just what the
British undertook to do, and failed
The canned meats also under the con-
dIticns which existed, quickly deteri-
GRATED, as they did in the British eX-
perIment.
Mr.. Wiley says that the only safe
method of preserving fresh meat, for
use in the tropics, is to dry it. 1t
may not be as palatable as meat which
is not dried, but it will be quite suitable
for food.
The investigations of the War Com
mission, and the evidence on the in
quiry as TO Gen. Miles attacks on the
"embalmed beef" ration, only bring 10
the knowledge of the government and
the people, what was well known in the
British war Office. Many lives have
been lost, because the troops have been
improperly fed. There is not much
consolation for the poor soldier in the
hospital, dying from bad food, IN the
reflection that his death will be due
| to the ignorance OF his own country
men, and that he has done nothing for
humanity.

MORE ABOUT EMBALMED BEEF

MIR. D. Allen Wiley, a mos! compe-
tent authority, furnishes the N. Y. In
deuendent with a clear statement on
the "embalmed beef" controversy.
He says that the British government
has, for years, made experiments IN
the preservation of beef and other
meats in fresh state, for use in the
tropics These experiments made at
large expense forced the conclusion
that refrigeration preserves the meat,
and aside from that "jerked" beef, or
dried beef alone gives satisfactory re
suit. Mr.. Allen explains at length the
experiments and their failures. Al
though experiments have been made
also, in America to some extent, none
have proved satisfactory excepting that
