ut would be impossible to give in read
ing any adequate impression of 'Resur-
Tection, for II is as full of incident and
experience as life. Nekhludoff. the princi-

spiritual temperament has been stified by

tragic incident reveals to him the chasm
between the aspirations of his youth and
the moral lethargy of his manhood With
that incident the free spiritual being
which alone is true. alone eternal, was
awakened in him, and from that moment
there began for him a new life The

sewing aud singing.
Chicago, Oct. 22-While his wife
worked at her sewing machine, singing
with light heart in anticipation of
the return of the children from school,
John Pfeiffer committed suicide by
hanging himself from hook in the
door casing. So quietly did he go about
his work of .self-destruction that. al
though in the same room, his wife
knew nothing Of his intentions until
he was dead several minutes.
Mrs. Pfeiffer's first knowledge that a
tragedy had taken place came when
she arose from her work to begin pre-
pairing the evening meal AS she
turned to go to the kitchen she saw
her husband hanging by the neck and
dead. Her screams of fright was heard
by the neigbbors, but before they
reached the house Mrs. Pfeiffer had
cut the rope, and was making vain at
tempts to revive her husband. Pfeiffer
lived at 5S4 Larrabee street and was a
cigarmaker. He had been out Of en-
ployment for some time and was de-
sDondent.

NO PARTIAL RESUMPTION,
What President Mitchell Says About the

What President Mitchell Says About the
Miners Strike.
HaZleton, Pa, Oct. 22.-President
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers
practically admitted to a representa-
tive of the Associated Press that if
every operator in the region were to
post notices similar to those that are
now being tackled up by some Of the
mine owners this action would in it.
self probably not end the strike. He
was asked if all the companies We're
to post such notices what his next step
would be. At first he hesltated and
then replied:
under the conditions laid down by
the Scranton miners convention there
could be no partial resumption Of
work"
When it was suggested that his re-
ply did not answer the question, he
said: "Well, all l will say is that if
all the companies post notices it would
clear up matters considerably. 1t
would remove some of the obstacles
that now present themselves"
This is the first public statement
that Mr.. Mitchell has made bearing
on a settlement of the contest since
the operators at Scranton took their
decided stand that the reduction Of
powder price must be considered in
figuring out the advance in wages.
Notices similar to those already posted
by individual operators in this region
have been issued by three more com
panieS.
