Near Waldron, Ind, resides M.

days. After recovering enough to sit
up for a few days, concluded he was
we'll enough to get out about his work.
He went out too soon. Most all pa.
tients do that. He had a relapse and
was confined to his bed for several
weeks. His old disorders became
greatly affected. The efforts of his
physician, who had been attending
him all the time, proved unavailing.
The doctor was dismissed. Several 9th.
ers were tried but their treatment was
useless.
Mr.. White doctored himself and used
many remedies said to be good for his

BIG STRIKE MAY SOON End
A CONVENTION MAY BE HELD.
The Men Themselves Decide ON Re-
cent Raise in Wages-OffciaIs of
Unions VIII Not BE Active in Con-
vention-DeIay to BE Avoided.

Hazleton, Pa, Oct. 8.-A conference
which is believed to mark tho tegin-
ming of the end of the anthracite coal
miners strike, which enters on its
fourth week tomorrow, was held at the
headquarters Of the United Mine Work
ers here Sunday afternoon. Fred
Ditchell and the presidents of the Lack
awanna and Lehigh Valley divisions,
John Fair, Schuylkill valley and others
were present. Although no informa-
ton was given out, it was known that
the question of calling a joint conven-
tion was the prominent issue discussed.
The conference will be held at Scran-
ton unless something unforeseen should
arise between now and the time of issu-
ing the call. Besides taking up the
matter of call for a convention 1t is
understood a basis of representation
was considered. The three district
presidents made full reports of the con-
ditions in the respective districts. Pres
ident Mitchell after the conference said
he would have something to say to-
morrow in regard to the convention.
II the date. has been fixed only Mr..
Mitchell and his colleagues know it.
President Mitchell says that not one
official of the mine-workers will take
hand in any action the convention
might take, as the men must them
selves settle everything that comes be-
fore them. The belief is general that
the miners will accept the increase.
Most of the mine owners who have
granted the wage concessions don't
specify in their notices how long the
advance shall remain in force, and it
is not likely that an attempt will be
made by the miners in convention to
open negotiations with the operators
looking to a concession in the matter
President Mitchell and other leaders
are strong advocates of an annual wage
schedule similar to that in force in the
bituminous coal fields. If this propo-
sition and that relating to the aboli-
tion of the sliding scale are brought be-
fore the convention and negotiations
with the mine owners are opened 1t
might considerably delay the settle
ment of the strike.
Convention Ordered.
Shenandoah, Oct. S.--President Mitchell
has issued call for convention of mine
workers of the three districts comprising
the anthracite field to meet in Scranton,
Pa, on Friday next. The text Of the call
is as follows:
Temporary Headquarters United Mine
Workers, Hazleton, Pa, Oct. S.-To all
Miners and Mine Employees of the Anthra-
cite Responsibilities: In view of the
fact that the mine operators have posted
notices offering an advance in wages for
merly paid, and believing it to be our
plain duty to consult your wishes as to
our future action, we deem it advisable to
ask you to select delegates to represent you
in convention.
You are therefore notified that con
vention will be held in Scranton, Pa, begin
ming Friday, October IL, at 10 a. m.
The basis Of representation will be one
vote for each 100 persons on strike, or If
desired, one delegate may represent as
many as 500 mine-workers, but no dele

IRON IS TORTURE

Eczema is caused by an acid humor in
the blood coming in contact with the
skin and producing great redness and in
fammation little pustular eruptions form
and discharge a thin, sticky fluid, which
dries and scales off sometimes the skin is
hard, dry and assured. Eczema In any
form is a tormenting, stubborn disease,
and the itching and burning at times are
almost unbearable; the acid burning
humor seems to ooze out and set the skin
on fire. Salves, washes nor other exter-
nal applications do any real good, for as
long as the poison remains in the blood
it will keep the skin irritated.
