est in that denominations work at Ha-
vana and nearn that their missionaries
also receive large salaries, more than
most people ever expect TO get. yet per
iodlcally go back to the states and tell
OF their sacrifices for the Lord and his
work usually giving lectures and begging
for contributions for the poor and or
phaned. Now I have not written this
article in a spirit Of criticism, but it is
simply a statement of facts that can be
substantiated by any one who cares to
do So Many people who are actually
struggling for a living are constantly be-
ing asked to give TO these causes and
believing it to be their duty give the
money that is 50 much needed at home
Even during the hard times of a few
years ago the different missions, over
looking the fact that every town and
even village contained at least one fam
lily where a little money expended in the
right way would have been of more bene-
fit than going to pay the salaries of peo-
pie who receive in one month more mon
ey than some families have IN whole
year.
Believing that charity begins at
home" and knowing that there is little
information is to be obtained upon
this subject and that many people believe
that their contributions actually go to the
relief of the heather, who would other
wise look nearer nome for charitable sub
jects have written plain statements OF
facts that have been under my observa-
ton for months that they may know in
giving just what becomes Of their money
I do not mean to fnsinuate that those
seeking contributions are dishonest, but
are themselves deceived by the reports
Of the missionaries I shall always take
with several grains of allowance the
statements of returned missionaries, who
state that they have given their time to
the Lord until I have received positive
assurance that they received less than
800 per month. J. D. RHOADES,

RAISE THE WAGES
READING COAL COMPANY WILL
GIVE 10 PER CENT.
LOOK FOR END OF THE STRIKE,
Increased Wages Will Satisfy the
Men and Bring Peace
Once More.

New York. Sept. 21.-The Tribune
prints the following: The Philadelphia
4 Reading company yesterday decided to
take a step looking to the speedy ter
mination of the coal strike. That was
the determination to raise the wages O
its employees ten percent. 1t is under
stood that the advance will begin imme-
diately, from this morning in fact. The
effect upon the strike situation will be
far reaching n according to operators,
who were seen last night, it will tend to
undermine the strength of the whole
strike movement. Since 1896 the output
of these mines has been restricted be-
cause of an agreement between the
worker whereby the output of anthra-
cite was wide after the manner of rail-
road people in traffic arrangements, in
Guiding the following percentages, Phila-
delphia \ Reading 20.50. Lehigh 500,
Delaware & Western 1875, Central of
New Jersey ITO. Pennsylvania 1872. Del
aware 4 Hudson $50. and 1880 divided
among other smaller producers. 1t will
be seen by these figures that the Phila-
delphia & Reading obtained by far the
greater part OF the Output and 1t was
the removal of this restriction that they
have sought as their capacity would en-
tDle tuSul 10 turn out Il lar greater per-
centage The Reading company will not
hesitate to break the agreement. In
point OF fact it is aid that operators,
whose mines are closed down are willing
that the agreement be set aside pend
ing the settlement of the wage question.
The motive which incites this attitude,
according to report, Is that the operators
who are mostly involved in the strike are
imbued with the idea that the Readings
output. supplemented as it will be by
large quantities o focal from other mines
yet working, will serve to avert any, re-
ally marked coal famine and that there
by the conditions will be improved. 80
far as the operators are concerned and
public suffering will fail of realization
In making the 10 percent advance in
wages. the officials of the Reading COM
pary DO not take the ground that it is
a submission to the demands Of the
workers. The Reading workers are paid
on what is known as a sliding scale and
the earnings Of the miners are regulated
by the amount of work they accomplish.

A CUBAN CONSTITUTION.
It Will Have to Be Approved By

New York. Sept. 20.-Congressman John
nalzeil, of Pennsylvania. is in the city.
HIS was called to the state
ments OF Cubans elected Tuesday as
members Of the constitutional onven
ton. that the convention would adopt
and follow an Independent policy
throughout and would not be influenced
by any representative of the United
states. He said: The idea of interview
ton provided hat Cuba should have an
independent and stable government
There was nothing in the resolution
which would confine the Cubans to the
establishment of any particular form of
government. but they must form a gov
ernment which will give every assurance
or stability. AS to just how the United
States government will act in working
out Cuban independence it is Impossible
to say. The problem is a new one to
us n each phase of it will have to be
met as It comes up. Thus far no mis-
takes have been made, and I think the
republican party can be trusted to work
out the problem successfully and honor

PLAN TO AVOID STRIKES.
French Decree to Establish Compul-

New York, Sept. PA special to the

This decree creates bodies to
be known as labor councils. whose duty
it will be to settle disputes between labor
and capital. The ~ouncil are to consist
of an equal number of worknlen and en-
ployers, but the workmen must belong to
recognized labor unions. This last clause
is likely to create difficulties. as the ma
jority of French laborers do not belong
to unions. If this defect can be over
come, it is believed that these councils
will provide a ready means of settlement
of labor disputes. thus avoiding strikes.

WHERE THEY WILL WINTER.
DISPOSITION of the Allied Armies in

Pekin. Sept. IA. via Shanghai, Sept. 10.
Gen. Chaffee expresses a preference in
favor of the tents for the winter camps
rather than ~insanitary buildings.
The indications are that ten thousand
of the allies will winter at Pekin. Thu
German force will be the largest. Som
of the trops will probably be distributed
in the surrounding cities to relieve the
strain. The Japanese will withdraw the
most of their force to Nagasaki. The
Russians will retain at least 1000 here.
A Joint expedition to Pao Ting has
been planned by the British, German
and French forces. The dowager en-
press has expressed her willingness to
return to Pekin if guaranteed protection.
The generals in command and the min
listers of the powers are unwilling to
assume such a responsibility.
A umbe of small and of Boxers
