Southern Business College, of Bristol.

We are pleased to note that the South
ern Business College, of Bristol, has open
ed up well and has bright prospects for an
exceedingly prosperous year. This school
will admit students either by the month
or by tie term, which makes the expense
much cheaper to students that are indus
trious than is the case where students are
received only by the scholarship plan. An
elegant catalogue will be sent to any one
on application. This is easily one of the
best schools in the South and richly de-
serves the success it has won. Many new
students are expected during October.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, October 1.-The coal
operators of the Wyoming, LacEawanns
and Lehigh Valley regions held an impor-
tant meeting in this city this afternoon
and decided to offer the miners an in
crease of ten per cent In wages, and also
to reduce the cost of powder to the miners
from S2.75 to $3.50 per keg.
The whole situation was discussed.
The powder question was the chief subject
Of debate, and next came the recognition
of the union. So far as can be learned,
none of the operators were in favor OF
recognizing the union in any way.
This evening W. A. Lathrop, the chair
man of the meeting, gave out the follow

"Lehigh Valley Coal Company,
Wilkesbarre, Pa, October l, 1900.
"Notice: This company makes the fol-
lowing announcement to its mine en-
ployes:
ut will adjust its rates of wages 80 as to
pay to its mine employees on and after Oc'
tober 1st a net increase of ten per cent.
on the wages heretofore received, and will
take up with its mine employees any
grievances which they may have.
"W. A. LATHRoP,
General Superintendent.
"Note: 1t is understood in the forego-
ing that powder will be sold to miners for
$3.50 per keg, and that the difference be-
tween this rate and the old rate of $2.75
shall be taken into account in figuring the
net advance of 10 per cent noted above
for this class of labor"
Similar notices to the above will be
posted by all the companies represented
at the meeting.
The strikers say that under no circum-
stances will they accept the offer. They
claim it is not as good an offer as the
Reading Company made to its members;
that the union Is ignored and the net in
crease must come out of the price of pow
der.
A prominent operator said tonight that
when the strikers come to examine the
notice posted they would receive it more
favoraby. "a ten per cent. increase is
granted all employees outside Of the miners,
and, with powder reduced to $3.50 key,
the miner will earn in a month ten per
cent. increase"

there was an issue in the coming election

Vice Consul George H. Murphy. at
Magdeburg, writes to the State Depart
ment under a recent date. giving informa-
ton as to a new method adopted by Ger
man merchants for packing butter for ship
ment Shipments of butter have been made
from Melbourne to Kimberley by this meth
cd and have arrived in a very satisfactory
state. The method. which is extensively
used in Australia, consists In placing the
butter in a box formed of six plates of Or
binary window glass whose edges are
closed with gummed paper; the glass box
is covered with a layer of burnt gypsum
(plaster of paris) about one-fifth Of an inch
thick and is wrapped in specially prepared
waterproof packing paper. Gypsum being
a bad conductor of heat, regular temper
ature is maintained inside the glass box.
There are made now cases that will easily
hold 100 Kilograms (220 pounds of butter.
The consul thinks the plan would prove
of great value to American shippers who
are engaged in shipping butter and other
such articles to tropical countries, and the
method of preserving delicate articles may
be found of great use even In the home
markets.
