Met in Bellaire Yesterday to FIX the
Deadworlk Scale. y
The coal mlners Of Ohio sub-district
No. 3. embracing the counties OF Bel
mont, carroll, Harrison Jefferson and
ruscarawas, met at Bellaire in the
painters labor hail yesterday afternoon
to formulate the deadwork scale in &c
cord with the Ohio mining scale, and
to-day they will have Joint meeting
with the operators. The Panhandle
district in West Virginia will also be
admitted to the conference.
The president of the Ohio sub-dis-
trict, Alexander Smith. of Mineral
Point, and Secretary John Stevenson
Of Barnhln, were both present with
delegates from about all the mines in
the territory named. None Of the men
seemed to anticipate any trouble at
all, but 1t was very generally remarked
that it was the best attended conven-
ton of miners they had held in the
district for long time.
The conference with the operators to-
day will settle the matter, unless there
be some hitch. which the men indicated
was not probable.

laush the natIon Of 7O.009O00 people

though the nation of 7O.OO9OOO people
was weeping in tears OF sorrow.
The wounded sailors were given the
best wards in the Havana hospitals,
continued the lecturer. The ground for
the interment of the dead sailors was
donated by the bishop OF Havana, and
Father Chadwick, in eulogizIng the
bishop, scored some American newspa-
pers for incorporating him. The
bishop. although spaniard, was above
all man, who in the great hour OF
trouble made no national distinction.
Impressive Funeral.
The funeral Of the dead sailors was
a great occasion, and when returning
from the cemetery the Spanish band
played Yankee Doodle" the tune was
singularly prophetic. Father Chidwtck
said he didn't care to repeat the grue-
some scenes at the hospitals or Gene
terry, and he went on to speak Of other
phases of the affair, He was sure all
his audience had heard of Brave Bill
Anthony, and he said such instances
of courage and GOODNESS were not I'M
common. The fortItude of Terry
o'shea, VINO died in u Havana hospl-
tai, was depicted pathetically. Captain
sIGsbee, Lieutenant Wainwright, later
Commander Wainwright, and other
senior officers were warmly praised for
their SIKH and tact, especially Captain
sigsbee for his telegram after the ex-
ploslon, in which he asked the people
at home to suspend Judgment until the
facts were learned.
The board of inqutry's finding that
the explosion came from without the
ship and was not accidental was taken
by the speaker to indicate treachery.
The war was not hastily brought on;
It was forced by spaIn's refusal to al
low American intervention when there
was need of a staying hand in Cuba,
and 1t was not declared merely to re-
venge the Maine, for calm wisdom re-
fused to rush into war at that venge-
full cry. And God blessed America in
the war, as shown by the marvellous
victories Mt Manila and Santiago.
The. conclusion of his lecture con-
tained an eulogy of the work done as
nurses in the war by the Sisters Of
Charity. The speaker also eloquently
praised the herolsm Of the mother who
gave up her son in sacrifice on the
altar Of her country. In raising shafts

FOOD RULES COMPLICATION.
Medicines of No Avail When I'm
proper Food is Persisted In.


A young lady whose first name is
Blossom, and who was for many years
misnamed, but is now properly named,
tells some interesting facts about her
efforts to clear up her complexion,
which in spite of all sorts Of medicines
and washes, face bleaches, etc, ETC.,
were Ineffective, because Of the root OF
the difficulty was not removed.
Her own story is interesting. From
childhood up l, with my sisters and
brothers, have been allowed the Use OF
both tea and coffee. After 1 became a
young lady of course 1t was no more
than human that should wish for a
beautiful complexion like several OF my
companions. but which did not have.
Many different courses were taken TO
accomplish my end, such as applying
face bleach, taking bottles and bottles
OF cleansing medicines, ETC., all to no
purpose.
MY older sister had learned before
me that coffee was the root Of the diff

water. ! tried II, but could find little
satisfaction in so weak and unpalatable
beverage, While visiting friend one
day accepted q cup OF coffee Gas l
supposed), when l noticed that this par
ticular coffee had a hundred per cent
better taste than the coffee we had been
in the habit of using. Upon inquiry for
the receipt OF this very pleasing beVer-
age learned that had partaken of the
noted Postum Cereal Food Coffee.
II had struck the goal at last. This
was the morning beverage that / want
ed, and this, It turned out, was the Sc
cret Of the beautiful complexion Of my
friend, OF course we Immediately COM
menced using 1t In our home, and /
want to say that to-day not a more
healthy, robust family Is to be found in
the United States, and the fact Is at
trlbutable to our abandonment OF cof-
fee and the use OF Postum Cereal Food
Coffee" We do not feel disposed to
publish the full name OF Miss Blossom,
but the name can be given to those In
tcrested, by letter to the Postum Cereal
Co., Ltd, Battle Creek, Mich, The
young lady lives near Traverse City,
Mich.
1t may be OF interest to know that
many Of the young ladies' semlnaries
throughout the country have dIscon-
tinued the use OF coffee and are using

exhorted the women to train their boys
to grow up to be good fighters In every
sense of the word. presume that most
| of them went home and for days after
wards pondered on that advice. The
question as to whether they should
spank their boys for fighting or spank
them for not fighting undoubtedly be-
came conundrum to them. The gov
ernor was quite right Browning would
not have advised differently. He felt
strongest against the man who 10 too
pusillanimous, too cowardly and shrink
ing to fight whenever necessary. These
are times when all Of us shrink with
horror from the word war" But what
shall be done to people who have no
grip at all In the world. or, If any, the
society sort Of grip-the people who
shake your fingers and hand them back
to you? Well, there is only one thing
to do-be content that it Is not your

In closing, DR.. Slicer read several Sc
lections from some of the most noted
works of Browning.
In reference to DIR. Slicer and the al
fusion he made to Governor Roosevelt,
the following from the current issue Of
Frank Leslie's Magazine Is of interest:
One of the most eloquent clergymen in
New York city at the present time is
Rev. Thomas r. Slicer pastor OF All
Souls church. Although compare
lively newcomer in the metropolis, hav-
ing removed here from Buffalo three or
four years ago, Mr.. Slicer has already
made large place for himself in the
religious, political and civic life Of the
city. He Is one of our best after-din-
ner speakers, and is in constant de-
mand for functions Of that kind. An
excellent example of his style and trend
of thought is furnished In the follow
ing paragraph from his sermon on
Thanksgiving day. The first business
of every American" said Mr.. Slicer, Us
to be first for America. He may regard
1t as a good stand for business to en-
rich himself, but being enriched he is
the trustee Of those riches, and not their
opportunity in which to be free, but the
only purpose of freedom is to live the
higher life I believe in the sovereign
ty of the people in the great democracy
which is working out lite salvation and
the salvation of the world" DR.. Slicer
is actively engaged in aiding the move
ment in favor Of municipal reform and
is one of the closest and most connden-
tial friends Of Governor Roosevelt.

As earnest of what
the big Store has plan
ned for the coming year, it
fttingly starts off the very
first business day of the
new year with the most
momentous event it has
yet announced.
On Tuesday, promptly
at 9 A. NJ, the great Janu-
airy Muslin Underwear
Sale will open. The press
of tomorrow and of the
days following, will give
complete details. Remem-
boring that through the
great industrial combines,
prices of muslin and lace
and ernbroideries of the
machinery which makes
them and of all the needs
of the manufacturers
prices have literally leaped
to the highest point re-
called in trade history

pressed with the merchan-
dising power that can bring
about q sale in which singu-
larly enough, low prices"

The Big Store" sends
to its public, greetings
and wishes it a very happy
"a very bright and pros
porous New Year.
Eighteenth inety-nine, up
on which Time has just
closed it's doors, takes with
it the banner for the big
gest year in our history.
We believe we have accom-.
plished much when we can
say this. But the biggest
achievement and the most
satisfactory, by far, is the
closer relations established
with our public, which has
become a more partisan
public than ever.
By keeping faith, by bring
ing together the greatest
showings of dry goods, by
blazing our own price paths,
by addressing our store
news in a dignifled, unseen
sational manner, but in a
way adequate to the inn
portance of the occasion
we have won confidence in
our words and in the store.
And we propose to hold it.
