CANTATA Is GIVEN
By the Pupils Of School No. S-NO. los
Programme.

Last night the pupils of school No. s
gave delightful concert under the direc-
ton of Mr.. p. w. Dykema at Plymouth
Church. They presented the cantata, THE
Holy Child" by Thomas Adams, a pro-
gramme of Christmas-tide music. Before
the concert began Mr.. Dykema explained
why the Christmas music was presented at
such late day. He said in the first place
there was not enough time to prepare such
difficult music for the holidays and in the
second place he thought it very good idea
to prolong the Christmas spirit and good
cheer through the month of January. He
said that about half of the children on the
stage would graduate into the High School
this week and Ii was also a sort of grad
uating offer for them.
There was a chorus of about three hun
dred voices on the platform, and the rem
dition of the music was splendid. The OPEN
ing number was THE March of the Mali
by the organist, Mr.. Kent. Mr.. Dykema
asked the audience TO study the music

done is to send postal cards or letters to

police officers receive a large number of
communications OF this sort, and but few
attract more than passing notice. Last
night, however, one from Brighton. Mass,

WOMAN'S CLOTHES ABLAZE.


Jessie Snyder. the keeper of resort at 333
West Market street, was seriously and per-
haps fatally burned about o'clock yester-
day afternoon. She had a colored woman
working for her, and after some trouble
between them told her to take her things
and leave. The colored woman did not
seem to be in hurry, and the Snyder
woman then insisted that she get away
from the place without delay. The servant
then asked her to go to her room while she
packed her things, to see that she took
nothing that did not belong to her. giving
as her reason that everyone who left the
house was accused of stealing things.
Jesse Snyder got lamp and accompanied
the colored woman to her room. They had
not been in there long before the quarrel
was renewed, and finally, the colored wo-
man claims, the other threw the lamp at
her. 1t struck her in the back and fell to
the floor, breaking and scattering the oil
over the carpet, which at once took fire.
The colored woman ran down stairs, and
before she reached the door heard Mrs.
Snyder scream. She hurried back and
found her late employers clothing all
ablaze, it having ignited, it is thought, in
her efforts to step over the fire.
She pleaded with the colored woman to
put the fire out, and a piece of carpet was
picked up and hurriedly plunged into pail
full of water. The colored woman tried to
throw this around the other, but Mrs. Sny-
der ran with outstretched arms, as IL to
embrace the colored woman, who became
frightened and ran again down stairs, fol-
lowed by Mrs. Snyder. Every portion of
her clothing was ablaze by this time,
and after rushing into the kitchen and
frustrating second attempt by the coll
ored woman to throw something around
her to smother the flames. a Iail
of water was held over her head and
poured upon her, but not until every par
ticle of clothing but her shoes had been
burned off. The woman suffered terrible
agony, and the efforts Of DR.. league, who
was called gave little relief for some time.
She was burned from head to foot, her
hands suffering the most because of using
them to tear off the blazing garments. The
physician thinks there is a chance for her
recovery, but her injuries are too serious
TO judge well until the effects of the shock
are known.

The Miners and Operators Cannot
Agree on What Is Just.

Several operators in the Denison corridor
yesterday afternoon said they were willing
to make any reasonable compromise with
the miners on the scale question and go
home at once, and the intimation was
given that a scale somewhere around 10
cents above the present price would be
acceptable.
This was told to several Of the promi-
nent miners, who laughed at it, saying that
10 cents would be nothing like the in
crease they would get.
al suppose that is what might be called
a feeler," said one of the miners talked
to, but it won't do. Why, Stephenson
has just reported general advance in the
West Virginia field of from to 10 cents
a ton and those fellows are not even in
the interstate agreement. Well get more
money than that and you can take my
word for it,.
Stephenson is a national executive COM
mitteeman from West Virginia and re-
turned from those fields yesterday, where
he says the advance in price is varying
according to the quality of coal mined
He says, however, the advance is material
when it is considered that only few
months ago the miners received 16 per
cent. increase in the West Virginia fields

took the first step by saying that he re-

which he lost control of himself and mace

said he. lis my apology to the convention.
Then, TO help the good work along. Dele
gate Ryan. who clashed with Chairman
Boyle the day before, arose and said he
had no wish to retard the work OF the
convention. but that he felt that ne had
been given provocation sufficient to make
his words excusabie.
AS soon as this was said some operator
moved to adjourn, but the miners fought
the proposition at every corner.
John =. Reese, of the miners. went
througf the form of making another at
tempt TO have the Iowa delegation seated.
and he was again unsuccessful both the
miners and operators we're again put in
bad frame of mind.
H l.. Chapman. an Ohio operator, moved
TO allow the national officers places on the
scale committee, but Chairman Boyle
stated that such a provision had already
been made.
Chairman Morton. of the scale committee
then announced that the committee would
hold its first session at once in the Denison
and asked all members to attend This set
things in motion again, and as the MEM
bers of the committee from both sides filed
cut a miner removed the rest OF the diff
Guilty by moving to adjourn. Everybody
seemed TO DE ready to go. as the hall was
cold and it was evident that nothing could
be done.

made a member of the committee in place

FROM VARIOUS POINTS
COME STORIES CONCERNING THE
SMALLPOX SITUATION.
Reports from the State University Elk.
aggerated, 1t Is Said-ColOred
FamiIy's Troubles.

A dispatch from Bloomington in refer
ence to the smallpox situation there says
that two cases of the disease have devel-
oped. 1t is asserted that rumors sent out
on Wednesday night concerning the situa-
ton were greatly exaggerated. The dis
patch says the disease has been traced to a
student by the name of Goshorn, who went
to Bloomington from Clay City and re-
turned home sick several days ago. The
houses where the disease exists have been
quarantined, also those who may have
come in contact with the sick before the
nature of the disease was disclosed. 1t is
said that President Swain, of the univer-
sity, and the city officials have taken all
precautions and there is no excitement
either in the university or city and no
cause for alarm.
Information came from Bedford last
night to the effect that DR.. ]. T. Freeland,
secretary of the City Board Of Health. was
summoned yesterday to Maui Ridge, near
Springville eight miles northwest Of bed

opinion was upheld.
COLORED FAMILY RUN OUT.
A dispatch received from Jacksonville
last night says: George Mason, colored
man, with his wife and five small children,
lucky, having been run out of Washington
county for the alleged reason that they
were supposed to come from a smallpox
neighborhood in Ohio county, Kentucky.
Mason says it was reported in the neigh
borhood that his family had the small
pox and he was ordered to leave. This
he refused to do and the next night a
bundle OF switches was left at his door
the door was drawn a skull and cross
bones. The next night Mason watched,
and thinking that he saw some one ap-
preaching the house. he fired. The intruder
then disappeared. The following night his
house was set fire and burned to the
ground. The occupants managed to escape
with part of their furniture. When in

FEW DAYS OF COLD.
However, the weather Man Does Not
Expect IL to Continue Long.

The prospects for having few days OF
real winter weather are very fiattering.
The weather man said last night the
weather to-day will be even colder than
yesterday. and IT may last for a day or
two. In the extreme Northwest the tenn
perature was rising last night and for this
reason It Is not believed the cold weather
will continue here very long.
The weather man says II is time for
winter weather January Is PA degrees
too warm this year. This is the total
number or degrees above named for
the twenty-five days based on an
average OF January weather for
the last twenty-five years The
weather man does not look for any ex-
IRENE cold weather this winter. but SAYS
we are likely TO have a good sample OF
zero weather before long.
