 Should this proposition be unac- ceptable to the operators, we recom- mend that the convention propose that all questions at issue be submitted to a fair and impartial board of arbitration.
 We would further recommend that under no circumstances whatever should there be a resumption of work at any of the collieries until the oper ators signify their acceptance of this proposition, and until you are notified officially that the strike is ended and all return to work in q body on the same day"

THE CHARACTER OF A GENTLE
 MAN


 It is almost the definition of a gentle man to say he is one who never gives pain .. He carefully avoids whatever may cause a Jar or a jolt in the minds of those with whom he is cast. All clashing of opinion or collis- sion of feeling, all restraint or susplc- ion or gloom or resentment; his great object being to make every one at ease and at home. He has his eyes on all his company; he Is tender toward the bashfui, gentle toward the distant, and mercifu toward the absurd he can recollect to whom he Is speaking; he guards against unreasonable allusions or topics that may irritate; he is sell dom prominent in conversation and never wearisome. He makes light of favors while he does them, and seems to be receiving when he is conferring He never speaks of himself, except when compelled, never defends himself by mere retort; he has no ears for slan- der or gossip, is scrupulous in imput- ing motives to those who interfere with him, and interprets everything for the best. He is never mean or little in his dISputco, never ltihtS tIl uIlldlI dtlNdHl- age, never mistakes personalities or sharp sayings for arguments, or insin- uates evil which he dare not say out. . He has too much sense to be affronted at insult; he is too busy to remember injuries, and too indolent to bear malice. {. If he engages in controversy of any kind his disciplined intellect preserves him from the blund- ering of discourtesy of better thought less educated minds, who. like blunt weapons, tear and hack instead of cut ting clean. He may be right or wrong in his opinion, but he Is too clear-head- ed to be unjust; he is as simple as he is forcible, and as brief as he is decis- i've. Nowhere shall we find greater candor, consideration and indulgence. He throws himself into the minds of his opponents, he accounts for their mistakes. He knows the weakness of human nature as well as it's strength, It's province and it's limits--Cardinal John Hery Newman.

An Old Parisiau Landmark.

One of the old Partisan landmarks
which will soon be leveled = to the
ground is the historic mansion once
occupied by Queen Hortense. Queen
Hortense was so unhappy in her mar.
rage to Louis Bonaparte that she
spent but little of her time in the royal
palace at the capital in Holland. She
resided chiefly in Paris, at No.
II. in the Rue La Fitte, where
she occupied the mansion which
has since been redolent with
the memories Of her life. OF re-
cent years it has been the residence
of the Turkish ambassador, but every
body knows It as the old home OF
Queen Hortense. Here the royal youth
who subsequently became Napoleon Ill.
of France spent much of his early life
The front of the mansion has never
been considered specially beautiful, bu,
on the interior there are still many
traces of the glory which once belonged
to the mansion in former days. The
old building. with the grounds ada
cent, will be destroyed to make room
for another street which Is now being
opened in the French capital.

Ine socrse wnlcn an earthquake runs
is usually very rapid. From the in
slant when the first shock was felt at
Lisbon to the period when all was
over, and many thousands of people
killed, not more than two minutes had
elapsed. Usually from ten to thirty
seconds elapse between the first and
last shocks Of severe earthquake. But
this lightning speed is not always the
earthquakes mode of travelling. While
Caracas, in Venezuela, was almost to-
tally destroyed and 10000 people were
killed in less than twenty seconds by
the great shocks there many years
back. there are cases in which con-
stantly recurring shocks have lasted
for weeks. No matter how brief the
span, the most frightful havoc can be
wrought, and the wave of destruction
propagated from the most distant re-
gions. The rumbling earth sound
travels at the rate of about 10000 to
1900 feet per second, and the earth
wave. on an average, about 1900 feat
in the same space Of time.

A Fiction Of tho Sea.

One of the Oldest maritime flctiona
has received it's death blow by the
raising of the American flag over Guam
in the Ladrone islands. According to
sailors. thousands of vessels cleared
for Guam, from ports all over the
world each year, but none ever arrived
there. Clearing for Guam was done
by ships which wished to conceal their
real destination. According to mari
time law, when once a vessel has
cleared for port it must proceed
thither by the most direct route or give
a satisfactory explanation. Guam was
a closed port under the Spanish rule
and ships could always give that as q
reason for not going there after having
cleared for the place.

EASY LIFE IN NICARAGUA.

When the Family 10 Ont Of Money some
Body Goes Out and Gets Little Gold.
From the New Orleans Times Demo-
crat: when I was in the blanche
district, in Nicaragua, last month";"
said visitor who is largely interesting
in mining In Central America, II had
an opportunity Of seeing how the lazy
natives tap natures till when they
need some small change. Near our
camp by the river was hut occupied
by typical Honduranian family, con-
sisting Of husband and wife, grand
father and grandmother, and a dozen
or so assorted children. The only one
of the crowd who did anything except
rest and smoke was the wife. At in
tervals Of perhaps q week she would
sally out with the family tin-pan, erst-
while used for cooking, and proceed to
an old placer digging on the river
bank. There she would squat, throw
few gourds full Of dirt into the pan,
fill it up with water and begin tho
usual circular motion of gold-washing.
She was very skillful and would keep
little sheet Of dirty water spraying
over the edge like a miniature cataract.
When the water was exhausted few
spoonsful Of sand would be left in the
bottom Of the pan, and, spreading 1t
out thin, with bit Of stick, she would
go over 1t, grain by grain, looking foz
color Whenever she saw a speck OF
gold she moistened the stick upon hel
tongue and picked up the particle by
adhesion. Each bit of the precious
metal was stored away in quill plugg'
ed with clay at the ends, and have
know her to take out as much as 9
quarter Of an ounce in the course Of 9
day. Usually her limit was about 8
and when she got that she stopped
Then the head Of the house woult
arise 1anguidly and start for the near

times he would trade the whole amour
for whiskey, but as rule he brough

There are hundreds of native families
who live in exactly the same manner
in Olancho. Sometimes the woman
will be lucky enough to strike q ricl
pocket, that will yield a dollar or NOR
a pan, but they never dream Of wash
ing it out at once and getting stake
It simply means that they can secur
their usual amount with less work"
