A CONVICT ORCHESTRA.
With ImprOV:sed Instruments Music
ally Inclined Philadelphia Pris-
Oners Play.

In the population of ], 100 in the east
ern penitentiary there is great genius
of many sorts. Since Warden Bussin-
ger has been in charge, leave has been
given the musically inclined prisoners
to organize an orchestra. Fifteen or
20 convicts daily exercise their souls in
vocal and instrumental music, and a
regular programme is being prepared
for performance in the big center of
the prison for the entertainment of the
whole population, says the Philadel-
phia Inquirer.
An Austrian highwayman, with a vio-
lin, is the best musician OF the lot,
and a big colored man, who plays on
five feet of gas pipe for a bass viol,
keeps up the bass. There are banjos,
guitars, mandOlins, triangles in the
convict orchestra. The other day they
were working over the Boulanger
march. The Austrian leader had not
mastered the exact lines of the march,
but he had caught the spirit of it and
seemed equal to throwing in something
equally spirited of his own where he
departed from the composer. Visitors
were SIMPLY GSJOllSIlGO dI the DuuSlC
of that motley combination. The gas
pipe bass player is waiting for the fin
ishing touches to be put on a real
string bass viol which one of the con-
victs has been making, with back and
belly of poplar and the curved sides
out of cheese boxes.
"There's nothing in it for you" said
the Overseer to the musicians when he
went around the cells selecting the best,
without regard to color, and with the
result that three to one were colored.
Nothing in it for us!" said the man
with the gas pipe viol. ''Do you think
this air and sunshine are nothing?'
The time which the rules give all pris-
ers for walking exercise in the yard is
spent by this strangest of bands in the
outpour of their souls in music.
1t is as great a success in lifting the
souls of prisoners up and out of them
selves in the direction in which their
talents flow as the exercise of others
in cabinet work or weaving or shoe
making. This is proved at once to any
one who watches that band.

NOTES FROM THE PARIS EX-
POSITION.

"The Singer Manufacturing Com
pany, of 149 Broadway, New York,
show their usual American enterprise
by having a very creditable exhibit, To-
Gated in Group XIII, Glass 79, at the
Paris international Exposition, where
they show to great advantage the cele-
brated Singer Sewing-Machine which
is used in every country on the globe,
both for family use and for manufac-
turing purposes. The writer was high
ly pleased with this display and OBJ
served with much satisfaction that it
was favorably commented upon by vis-
itors generally.
The Grand Prize was awarded by the
International Jury to Singer Sewing
Machines for superior excellence in de-
sign, construction, efficiency and for
remarkable development and adoption
to every stitching process used in
either the family or the factory.
Only One Grand Prize for sewing ma
chimes was awarded at Paris, and this
distinction of absolutely superior merit
confirms the previous action of the In
ternational Jury at the Worlds CO.
lumbian Exposition, in Chicago, where
Singer machines received 54 distinct
awards, being more than were re-
ceived by all other kinds of sewing ma
chimes combined.
Should it be possible that any of our
readers are unfamiliar with the cele-
brated Singer Machine, we would re.
spectfully advise that they call at any
of the Singer salesrooms which can be
found in all cities and most towns in
the United States"

CHARGES of Discrimination.

Two complaints charging discrimina-

sion. One charges the Illinois Central

Hazleton, Pa, Oct. Snow that the
convention is a certainty, there is a
feeling of relief in the entire region,
and it is confidently expected that
week from to-day will see the mine
workers going back to the mines.
President Mitchell will call the con-
vention to order, and will preside over
its sessions. The secretaries will be
elected by the delegates, and it is al
most certain that the convention will
vote that all of its session shall be
held in secret. In the meantime, the
labor leaders say their efforts to close
up the mines still in operation viii 90

in wages and a reduction in the price

indianapolis, Ind, Oct. S.-W. B.
Wilson, secretary-treasurer of the
United Mine Workers of America, has
issued a statement in which he says
in part:
''All of the coal operators having
now conceded an advance in wages, ii
can be truthfully said that the min
ers of the anthracite region have
achieved a great victory. Yet the dis
pute is not settled, nor will it be,
even though the miners accept the
proposition of the operators and re-
turn to work. The sliding scale, dock
age, semi-mOnthly pay and other
grievances complained of by the min
ers have not been considered in the
proposition of the operators, and the
advance in wages is so complicated
that many of the miners do not un-
derstand it. Under these circum-
stances the surest and best method of
securing a settlement and establish
ing permanent peace, would come
from a meeting of the operators with
the anthracite miners when they
meet to consider the offer of the coal
companies.
Tho anthracite coal field is divided
by its mountain ranges into three dis.
tinct regions, each having geological
conditions peculiar to itself, thus re-
quiring different systems of working
and different methods and employ
ment.
''The only method by which salts
factory explanations can be made is
for the operators to meet the miners
