fore the men started to work. They say plenty of men will be on hand when the time comes to operate the plant
 Attention was called to a former statement made by the officials of the corporation that while delays would necessarily occur in operating the idle plants that it would not deter the of- ficials from proceeding along the same lines and that they were prepared to spend all the time and money necessary to fight the union and make all of the plants non union in the end
 When President Shaffer was seen at his home tonight he said in reference to the days meeting tht 1t was not a preconcerted one, but just happened. President Mitchell, he said, had tele- graphed him that he would like to see him to-day on his way home from the eastern coal fields, and soon after his arrival the other men made their ap- pearance.
 During the meeting, however, the whole strike situation was under dis cussion, but nothing of importance was accomplished MT. Shaffer said that no arrangement had been made to sub init new peace proposition to the cor poration or a further proposal for ar bitra tion, adding, however that he did not know what individual action the conferees might take in the future.
 It is believed that as result of the meeting another effort will be made to induce the corporation to enter another conference. The specific means to bring this about would not be discussed by any of those present.

YALE NO TRADE MARK.

Patent Commissioner Decides to Allow
 Use of University's Title for Belt
 Supporter.
 Washington, Aug. 23.-Actng Patent Commissioner Moore has been strug- gling with the question of the real meaning and application of the Word Yale" MT Moore finally decides that the word "Yale' has geographical significance and is more or less com mon surname and is not such an ar bitrary word as to become the sole property of any individual He there fore refuses the registration of the word as a trade mark in the case Of Alfred H. Peats, who wanted to use the word as a trademark for belt sup porters.
 Acting Commissioner Moore says in his decision. This is an appeal from the refusal of the examiner or trade marks to register the word Yale as trade mark for belt supporters.
 "The word Yale is not an arbitrary word It is true that to many people it would signify the great university at New Haven, Conn.,, named in honor Of the historic parsonage, Elihu Yale. The word Yale has, however, a geographic al significance and is also more or less a common surname. Each of these facts has been shown to be true by the examiner, It is clear then, that the word Yale is not such an arbitrary word as would make it the sole prop erty of any one individual.

THE MIRAGE.
Wonderful Pictures in the Desert
 Country of Arizona.

Wonderful Pictures in the Desert
 Country of Arizona.
 As the mirage is so infrequent in the populous part of our country, and as so ylittle is said about it, 1t is probable that the majority of Americans know it only by name, though they may have read descriptions of the mirage of the Sahara Desert or the Fata Morgana of Sicily and Southern Italy, Occasion ally it may be seen across Lake Ontario, and New York State may look upon a Canadian town pictured upon the sky. This happens but once in many years.
 But the mirage of the Southwest be- comes a friend, a sort of travelling companion. It is not so infrequent nor picturesque in New-Mexico as in Ari- zona and southeastern California. The mirage to this section is said to be much more wonderful and charming than on the Sahara or the Fata Morgana at the Straits of Messina. It combines the beauty of these and adds something to both.
 As the traveller passes through Ari- ozna on the train he sees the lakes coming and going all the time, and wonders if it is not mistake to call it desert. Occasionally he will be as- tonished to see wild animals come so near the train, but when he sees some beasts. larger than the elephant, he be- gins to ask questions and is likely to feel sceptical when told that it is all a fancy and due to the mirage. Our party was growing so used to phantoms that we were confident we could not be mis- taken again. Nevertheless we were.
 We had left the Moqul reservation and were travelling toward the Chiti- quo River, when we beheld a city chiselled out of marble, with cathedrals and towers, with pillars capped with Grecian gods and Christian saints, with streets of marble and a river winding it's way through the city. We believed it real city and thought it was built of marble because it was so plentiful here. It was a city of splendor, but child of the sum- which gave life and beautv to the sand barren desert: and Iol when we look again the magic city, with it's wonderful towers and pillars and river, has vanished like a shooting star. and a feeling of loneliness comes over us as we see once more the sad dened desolation of the desert
 Two days later, ninety miles from where we had seen the phantom city, we viewed the Painted Desert" as it

 or Rayyiew or Joliet, and the situation at those points is considered by them unchanged.
 The conference of the labor leaders at the offices of the Amalgamated as sociation to-day was the leading feat ure of the strike during the day. The officials are pleased with the way things were moving, and one of them said somewhat mysterously: "In another six days you will see decided change in the strike, and that will tell with greater effect on the trust and aid in hurrying the final outcome of this struggle"
 Just what this change is to be was not said, but 1t was inferred strongly that the coming event hinged upon the conference that was taking place.
 Two sessions were held by the con- ferees behind closed doors. After the adjournment of the first session none of the participants would give out any information of the proceedings further than to say that the leaders had been called together for the purpose of hav- ing the situation thoroughly explained to them and to have some action taken looking to the aid of the strikers moral ly and financially by all the organiza- lions represented. There were present at the conference beside the Amalga- mated officials John Mitchell, national president of the National Mine Work CTS of America; J. w. Jenks, member of the industrial commission; Grand Master Sargent of the Locomotive Fire men: Ralph M Basley secretary of the National Civil Federation, and Henry M. White, general secretary of the United Garment Workers.
 The conference ended tonight about g o'clock and the conferees left for their homes.
 The strikers make the claim that very little actual work has been done by the combine in any of its plants since the strike began and that what product has been turned out has been of an inferior character. Notwith- standing this the steel officials declare themselves well pleased with the condi- ton of affairs and say all the mills started are working satisfactorily and turning out good product.
 The postponement of the attempt to start the Demmler plant of the Ameri- can Tin Plate company until next week the officials say, was for the purpose of putting the plant in perfect order be-

 From slopes or ridges of snow men are not likely to fall unless they are overthrown by sudden blast of storm. as has happened once or twice. Even then fall may be arrested by using the ax as a brake if the surface of the snow be not too hard frozen. The chief danger on snow is that you may fall through it into a hidden crevasse. It sometimes happens, after a fresh fall of snow, that a crevasse is completely covered up so that not sign of 1t can be perceived even by the most experts enced eye. Against this peril, however, there is one certain protection. It is the rope tightly used. If the members of party are joined Gas above the snowline the yalways should be) by aE good rope firmly knotted round the waist of each, with distance of from ten to fifteen feet between a man and his neighbor and if the rope be not all lowed to dangle on the ground, 1t will be matter of indifference whether one falls into cervasse or not. Before he is more than waist deep the rope Will hold him. and he will be able to scrann~ ble out without difficulty or damage.
 There is kind of danger which. has not been mentioned. It Is danger from bad weather. In bad weather easy places become difficult and the way may be hard to find. Bad weather sell dom comes on without warning. Wise people take the warning; the foolish sort go ahead and take the risk.

SENSIBLE TO QUIT. Coffee Agrees with Some People, but
 Not With All.

.'Coffee has caused my son-in- law to have nausea and pain in the stomach and bowels.
 Tn my own case I am unable to drink coffee without having distress after- wards, and my son, eleven years old, has had dyspepsia, caused by drinking coffee.
 We all abandoned the use of coffee some months ago and have been using the Postum Food Coffee since.
 Each and every one of us have been entirely cured of our troubles and we are naturally great friends of Postum. I have tried several different ways of making it. but there's no way so good as to follow the directions properly; then we have a delicious drink" Mrs. A. E. Mouble, 331 Lynn St, Maiden, Mass.
