HAzLEToN, Pa, Sept. 1e.-The
for0lgn-speaking miners are in the
majority in the Hazleton district,
and most of them are in favor of the
strike. The English-speaking work
men who are in favor of the strike are
not SO numerous. It seems to those
who are in close touch with the sit
uation that all depends on the for
eignars. If tney conclude to stay
away from their work, tho mines will
be SO crippled that operations will
have to cease, thus forcing ldleness
upon the English-speaking workmen.
The territory south of Hazleton is
well organized, and there is some ap-
prehension here tonight that disturb
ances might occur in that locality.
Some of them have made threats Of
bodily harm against any one who
starts work in the morning.
PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 16.-That the
strike OF the mine workers in the an
thracltc coal regions of Pennsylvania,
which President Mitchell. Of the Uni,
ted Mine Workers of America, has otti-
cialIy ordered to begin Tomorrow
morning. will be one Of considerable
magnitude seems certain tonight from
reports received from the regions af-

they may be short-handed. but whether
they Will be successful only can be de-
termtned when the breaker whistles
sound the call TO work. The operators
generally will have their collieries In
condition to begin operations, and the
whistles will blow. as usual, but q large
number OF the employers admit that
there Is but little hope Of being able
to start.
Mine Workers Orderly.
To-day was one of quiet throughout
the entire coal district The mine
workers were orderly, and their leaders
were busy addressing meetings to en-.

OBITUARY.

Nora q. Noland.

Miss Nora C. holland was born and
raised near Unionville, Iowa, and died
at Iowa City, Iowa, April Is, 1900, aged
25 years.
There could be no nobler and sweet
er woman than Nora. Always true to
duty; ambitious in ways that were
worthy; aspiring, not simply 10 gain
applause, but to be truly great, good
and useful, and in this she fully sue
cefded.
With her various accomplishments,
she combined a pure, unselfish, Chris
tian character. Every one that knew
her, loved her. She possessed the rare
art of making every one she met her
friend. She was intelligent, hand
some, accomplished, and charming
conversa1ionalist. She was leader in
social circles wherever she went. She
was ever ready to do good to every one
and readily won their confidence and
esteem; an untiring worker, complet-
ing the high school course in Des
AIoines, and also graduating from the
| Iowa State Normal school at Cedar
Falls. Teaching in graded schools I'M
til 1898, she was elected assistant prin-
cipal of the Norway high school, which
position she efficiently filled until her
| death.
Two weeks ago the school had a va
cation, and while enroute home to Ce-
dar Falls. she stopped at Iowa City to
visit her brother Harry, who is in
school at the university, and on arriv-
ing BECAME dangerously i'll, her sick
ness being caused by an abscess in
the intestines. She was Immediately
taken to the hospital and the best
medical talent employed. Sunday
morning, April Is, an operation was
performer, but to no avail. Monday
night her sweet and gentle spirit de-
parted to be with God.
! Her remains were sent to Brakes
vile and interment was made in the
Adams cemetery, Wednesday follow
| ing. Flowers were sent by friends
from Norway, Des Moines and Cedar
Falls, as tributes of their high re-
gard.

Churches Last Evening.
GROWTH OF LEAGUE IS PHENOMENAL
synopsis OF Address by Attorney George
F. Heindel on 'sThe Progress OF
the Epworth League and
Its Outlook"
From Mondays daily.

=
The eleventh anniversary of the
founding of the Epworth League was
appropriately celebrated at the First
and Main street NJ. E. churches last
evening. At the former special pro
gram was rendered, while at the latter
general program issued by the
League, and entitled, ''The Marks of
the Ideal Epworth Lacquer in the
Twentieth Century" was participant
ed in by the members of the Main
street Epworth League, after which
new officers were installed.
At the First NJ. E. church Attorney
George +. Heindel spoke on ''The
Progress of the Epworth League and
Its Outlook" He began by referring
to it's 10000 chapters and 1,75o,ooO
members to demonstrate the extent of
it's growth. Mr.. Heindel said that the
mere fact that the League had acquir-
ed large membership did not insure
progress, but that that depended en-
tirely upon the kind Of members. 1t
is not question of size alone, but the
character and work. True progress
depends on how near League members
approach the purpose for which the
society was designed.
He said that the Epworth League
had been kept on probation for eleven
years, but thatait has demonstrated by
its work that it is entitled to full
membership and that all opposition to
it and questions as to whether it is fill
ing the sphere for which it was in
tended have been removed.
1t has made a place in the church
for young members and given them
responsibility which had the effect
of educating them in the doctrine of
the church and its institutions. 1t has
created within them an interest which
could not have been attained in any
other manner. 1t develops the young
people in the church so that they are
prepared to take their places in the
more advanced work of the church.
Miss Maude Uteeht spoke on the
Ideal Lacquer" and Mrs. D. H. Emery
told of the relation Of the League to
the church.

The choir sang ASLEEP in Jesus
after which the pastor read from tie
fourteenth chapter Of ST. John. He
spoke words OF strong hope and great
comfort to the bereaved children, the
aged parents and other sorrow strick-
en- relatives and friends.
Rev. Collins spoke OF his visit to the
deceased during her last illness, of
her tender and intense solicitude for
the welfare of her children, and of
her strong leaning on the Saviour, as
she faced the possible results of her
illness. 1t was this simple impressive
account of Mrs. Cowan's religious
faith and trust, SO true and real that
more than all other words afforded
balm to the sorrowing hearts. (alrs.
Cowan had planned for her friends
a goodbye, and made her wishes
known.
The choir sang "Abide With Me-
and Nearer My God to Thee" after
which all took last look at the loved
form in the casket.
The floral offerings were very beau.
tiful and symbolized more than words

has been employed several years, sent
a cross, and the clerks in the store,
