wash up the dinner dishes the method SO
often suggested by people who theorize
about housekeeping while they them
selves live in NOTES.-THE method. namely.
of help from the outside, with stated
hours for the performance Of stated serv-
ices, would be really practical. Perhaps
there would still be dishes 20 wash IL
there were no cooking. but surely there
could not be so many of them. and pots
and frying pans would be swept from the
earth forever.
We should have 20 have prettier dishes
and daintier linen and more elaborate
table decorations than ever, to remedy
the ocular gap that the departure OF crisp
and comfy preparations would leave. but
then there would be plenty OF time TO
look after such things IL there were no

THE NINETY AND NINE.


The Savior knew that ninety and nine
Were safe within the fold:
But His heart went out in tenderest love
To the one out in the cold.
He babe His SHEPHERD waiting there,
To so and ird his sheep;
BE knew the tharns along the way.
And all the dangers It would meet
And He knew the one from cut the fold.
II left TO find the way
wifh0u; a guiding hand or voice
Would surely go astray.
The ninety and nine were not enough
He yearned for the one alone;
And the ones that were safe within the fold
For the lost could not atone.
And he bids rs all who have heard His voice.
And know Hs loving care
To 90 out IN the world and hnd his sheep,
The lost ones, everywhere.
And gently lead them back 70 the fold,
To the Shepherds tender care;
Away from the paths Of ain and vice.
From the mountains II despair.
And He locks on their with tender lore.
As He kindly leads them In:
He knew the way was rough and hard,
In paths so fraught with sin.
And the Savior reioices more I trow,
Ger tn one rescued from sins dark way.
Than over all the ninety and nine.
That had never gone astrsy.

hundred angry men, women and chill
dren assembled near the Cameron
colliery Friday night and as the non
union workmen left for home they
were assailed by volleys of cobble-
stones. Although every one of the
workmen had been sworn in as spe-
cial policemen and were armed, they
did not shoot into the mob, which
was led by four women carrying
American flags. In escorting Paul
Klinger, the breaker boss, from the
mine his brother, Constable Joseph
Klinger, fired one shot at a crowd on
bridge because they hurled rocks
at the pair as they traversed a rail-
road. Following the shot part of
the mob chased the brothers into the
city limits. Miles Dougherty, an Of
ficer of the local miners organiza-
ton, hearing of the riotous demon
stration, hurried to the scene and in
brief address persuaded the mob
to dispense.

France, Russia, japan and United
States Have Not Accepted the
/ Anglo-German Agreement.
NO CONCERTED MOVEMENT BY TEEN
Two Constructions Seem to Be In
volved In the Position Relative to
Taking Territory In China.
Either One IL Such That the Powers,
Not a Party to the Agreement,
Could Not he Expected to
Bind Themselves.

Washington, Oct. 27.-In diplomatic
quarters there is felt to be some sig
nificance in the fact that France,
Russia and Japan, as well as the
United States, have not yet accepted
the invitation to accept the princi-
pies of the Anglo-German alliance.
1t is understood that this nonaction
of the powers is not due to any con-
certed movement among them, al.
though each appears to be halting on
the third clause. A diplomatic Off.
cial said Friday that, on mature con.
sideration of the third clause, it was
seen 10 involve two constructions,
first, that If any power took terri
tory in China as a result of the pres
ent trouble, then Great Britain and
Germany would also take territory,
territory In China, Great Britain and
Germany would seek to prevent this
action or otherwise jointly act against
the country seeking to extend its
domains.
Powers May Reject the Agreement.
ClbutT COlSJI uCliOll, IL was punt
ed out, was such that the powers not
party to the agreement could not be
expected to bind themselves to its ac-
ceptance. Under these circumstances
it was said that the powers would
probably seek TO learn Russia's views
on the third clause, as Russian APP
proval undoubtedly would remove
the idea that there is any possible
menace intended. But it is recognized
among diplomatic officials that it
would be extremely difficult TO secure
an expression from Russia on this
point, as an unfavorable rejoinder,
which she might be expected to give,
would amount to declaration that
she had some territorial designs on
Manchuria, and a refusal TO answer
would be similarly open to such con-
struction. The impression is grow
ing among the representatives of
these powers that the present non
action will continue for some time,
and that the agreement will be con-
fined to Great Britain and Germany,
at least until there is a fuller under
standing of the third clause than
either of these governments has given
thus far
