THE MILNEsVILLE STRIKE.
There Is No Change in the Situation
from That of Wednesday.

Wilkes-Bar Oct. 27,-There is prac-
tically no change in the strike situation
at Milnesville, and the prospects for
an early resumption Of operations at
this time are very remote. The com
mittee appointed by the miners and
the bosses met in the office at Mines
willie yesterday, and were met by Frank
Pardee, the manager He informed
the men that he desired all the EN-
ployes to be treated alike, and that
the present difficulty should be ad-
justed.
The members of the United Mine
Workers held a meeting last evening
to receive the report of the special COM
mittee which was appointed to confer
with Superintendent Harvey. The
committee decided to remain out un-
til he was restored to his former posi-
tiOn.

TT DOES MOTE.

| Nevertheless, it does move,' said | Calico after he had weakly sworn 1t l didn't So said those who saw the Burmese band-stand move yesterday after they had strongly sworn that it was never likely to move. Yesterday executive ability showed oratory aside and snaked the band-stand out of the way of that fine new hagpole which will be put up within thirty days" if nothing happens to prevent.
 So far so good The discussion of the final disposition of the band-stand con- tinues with unabated fervor and 1t is to be hoped that the fervor will con tinue unabated until the band-stand is abated The latest suggestion is that it be moved down to spot on the Green in front of the city hall and be made to serve as reviewing stand. It can fairly be said in favor of this scheme that the lovely structure is as fit for reviewing stand as it is for a band-stand. But wouldn't it be better to abandon all sordid ideas of making it useful? It has never been useful. It has only been beautiful Why try to condemn it now to a baser existence? We think it would look well as a moonlit ruin on the site of that Par thenon which Is not yet fading mem- ory It would also look well as a dis tributed ruin. A piece of it might be given to each ward in the city, a piece to Yale university, and the remains to the Historical Society. Or the stu dents of Yale might like pieces of it. If it is decided to keep it together, and if it is. thought best not to have it an undistributed ruin on the Green could nit the fitness of things be preserved by moving it to East Rock park where

A HERO WHO WORE NO UNIFORM

Near Maple City in Cowley county
 one day last week Farmer John Stev- enson and his hired man went down Into well to clean it out Both were overcome by foul air and were stone dead when taken from the we'll. On the same day, at the little village of Cath arine, In Ellis county, a similar catas- trophe resulted In bringing forth hero whose name is worthy of enrolment among the best and the greatest. Paul Meis went down into his fathers well after a fallen bucket. He was overcome by the gas and became unconscious. William Pelzel braveIy went down after Meis, and he in turn succumbed to the deadly vapor Then Paul Keoner went down after the other and met simi- lar fate and this was the situation when Henry Karlin arrived on the scene. Without hesitation Karlin had a rope tied beneath his arms and a silk hand kerchief over his face, and he was low cred in the well carrying an extra rope
 Reaching the bottom he hastily tied the loose rope around the leg of man and the man was hoisted to the surface. Twice this operation was repeated, and then Karlin was hauled out he having become unconscious just as he finished tying the rope on the last man. All four remained unconscious for a long time but doctors finally succeeded in bringing them around. Neither Pelzel

the ordinary way Is hindered by the fact that the water is extremely deep, with twenty or thirty feet of mud at the bottom. In order to solve the prob lem, 1t is proposed to suspend or float tunnel about thirty-flve feet below the surface of the water, allowing uninter- rupted passage to vessels of the largest tonnage. The Golden Horn has no tide The tunnel Is to be a wrought-iron tube about ten feet in diameter and 1,20o feet long, and the gradient at each end would be fifty. It would weigh about 600 tons; maximum weight of any tram, 400 tons; concrete and lining, to over come the buoyancy of the tube, 1,7O0 tons, and water displacement 2,Wo tons.

4 MEETING OF THE CIT.ITAS CLUB,

The Civitas Club is Brooklyn insti. tuition, and a very fourishing institu- tion it is too. It held it's first meeting for the season the other day, and it's proceedings were so voluminous and impressive that we call special atten- tion to them as indicative of the men, tai activity and scope of Woman at the present day.
 The New Politics" was the subject set for discussion at the meeting. 'The New Citizen was the title of Mrs. E.. w Aliens paper The speaker said that woman is, of course, this new cit izen, and although by becoming so, she may have lost some of her soft color less sensibility, yet she is capable of doing much more real good. "We have not yet reached our highest develop ment by any means,' she said we are passing through our high school. but our college is to come.' "The Making of President" was discussed by Miss F., S. Doughty. Miss Doughty spoke of the way the election of president was meant to work. She de- plored the fact that New York State submitted to the tyranny of bosses.

Golf capes are worn by almost every one. In price there is wide range and l there is an equally great difference in the capes. Double-faced goods prevail. | The better capes are free skirted with out being shaped out in exaggerated bell-fa shion. They are woody and warm, have no variegated fringe, and except | for the lining of the hood no trace of the plaid inside shows outwardly Even the hood is likely to fall so that only a flash of it's lining shows. Stone gray, with double face of black and white check, is handsome. Blue with blue double face crossed with dully lines of purple dull green and brown was an- other distinguished looking garment
 Miss Flip Flaps golf cape may be white with double face of brilliant pink, blue and scarlet check This may turn up in a gray facing all around the cape From the top of the facing variegated fringe may turn back, the hood being a great flat expense of the buging plaid with lots of fringe. Or her choice may be brilliant scarlet with showy plaid inside and smudged well up over the outside edges, of course. The cape will probably be of excellent material, and surely curved out in bell pattern. Some few capes are dull plaid outside and are lined with plain color. These are commendable. Then there are a lot of half-price horrors in otton-adulterated stuffs and eccentric effects. A few golf capes are modified a bit in shape and are lined with silk.

l The third paper by Mrs. A. F. Bab 1 cock, was devoted to consideration O Possible Politicians, the Hon, Theo | dore Roosevelt, and the Hon. Sam. M Jones as Types.' MT. Roosevelt was spoken of as man who held to his convictions with wonderful degree ot courage, and whose standard among honored men was high one. "I will give him until 1904 to become Presi- dent" said Mrs. Babcock.
 Poor Mans Law Suits was written upon by Mrs. Nellie A. Dearborn, and read by Miss Perry The measures taken by the city of New York to en- able the penniless to secure justice were ably presented. Miss A. Coutan read a paper on Municipal Labor Bureaus, showing that New York has more of these bureaus than any other city in the United States, Buffalo coming next With single exception all of these dio pIINdle, HoL puUllC lHSlllutlOllS. Miss Mary Campbell's paper was upon Highways" and the paper was read by Miss Jadwin. Regulated Funerals were pleaded for by Mrs. Frank Ander- son, and the practise of expending sums for the interment of the dead out of all proportion to ones means for the sake of public opinion, emphatically condemned Miss Nina Clement ad- vocated the establishment of municipal abattoirs, such as nearly all nations but China, Japan and the United States already have. Mrs. Tunis G. Bergen followed Miss Clement, and told of the highly beneficial effect that the music and singing introduced in children's play grounds was known to have. "Art and Citizenship" was the theme of Mrs. Walter Brewsters discourse. The Art Commission created by the Charter as step toward making the city as beautiful as that of Paris or ancient Rome. Municipal Pawn Shops" were considered by Miss M Louise Burtis, as indispensable necessities of the poor man and the systems on which they were run at homo and abroad ex- plained.
 ''The Meaning of the New Politics." was presented by Miss Van Anden. "In former times politics did its work" said she, "by prescribing and proscrlb- ing, and now it seeks 10 do 1t by pro- tecting and providing" As a fitting conclusion to the programme, Mrs. K. c. Baldwin recited several poems, sug- gestive of the new politics. Her se- lections were The Average Man. by Hamlin Garland; Labor" by Mrs Stetson, and Kipling's "Recessional"
 We have not read lately of any mans meeting that exceeded :his meeting of the Civitas Club in the number and size of the topics treated. It is an eye opener to those who have been wilfully blind to the wonderful progress that has been made by Woman since she started out to show what she could be and do

ToTING MACHINES.

The voting machine is making itself
 appreciated. In the elections Tuesday
 225 voting machines were used in the
 State of New York, distributed as fol-
 lows: Buffalo 10S, Rochester 7S, Utica 26, Ithaca 10, Albion 5, Canisteo and
 West Winfield i. The Rochester Demo- crat reports that high praises of the machines come from all quarters. They have met every promise of convenience to voters, speed in voting, automatic and instantaneous footings of the total number of votes cast for each candidate and promptness in announcing the ag- gregate result in city or village pro portioned to the quickness with which veyed to a central point and tabulated. Ithaca seems to be the banner town in this last respect, with record of sev- enteen minutes in gathering and adding the figures from ten machines Of the 225 machines used mishaps were report ed to only seven and these were due in three cases to malicious vandalism and breakage by violence, in three cases to a displacement of keys by election off, cers, delaying the unlocking of the ma chimes promptly at the appointed time on election morning, and in one case to the strong arm of an ignorant fellow who gave the voting lever a fierce wrench in the wrong direction. In none of these eases was serious delay caused, nor did a single citizen lose his vote.
 In addition to their speed and accura- cy the machines are so constructed as to make it impossible to cast a defective vote, to repeat or to commit any fraud or irregularity. It is evident that voting machines will soon be generally used

FASHION NOTES.
Golfcapesin severn, Sorts.

Two sorts of cape prevail, the golf and the airy affair of elaborateness that gives no warmth. Aside from these, the fashions in winter outsides will turn to coats and jackets. Two jackets appear here. The cloth one was in tan shade, and was prettily ornamented with em- broidery of havana brown silk floss and soutache. The other was Persian lamb The cloth garment was loose in front only; the fur one hung straight all around It had black velvet collar, which, with it's shortness, was its feat ure of newness. A Persian lamb gar ment doesn't need to be strikingly new in appearance to figure near the top of the price list.
