WHAT'S IN A NAME?
(Benson's Plaster Is Pains Masfer.)

In the days Of wild cat money in the
West, the Ames shovels were used as chr.
rency. They were as stable as gold: their
price did not vary q cent in twenty wears.
The very name of Oliver Ames & Son. was
q synonym for honesty. It was current ali
over the world.
On the same principle Benson's Porous
Plaster is the universal standard external
remedy. To say it is ''good'' plaster does
not describe it; it Is the best possible nzQstsr.
For every disease in which an external rem.
edy is available, Benson's Plaster is used
almost as matter Of course. .o-
Benson's Plaster quickly relieves Ard
cures where other modes Of Treatment ara
either e1asperatingly slow or have no good
effect whatever. Coughs, colds, lumbaeo.
kidney trouble, rheumatism, lame back
etc., are at once benefited and soon cured.
Capsicum, Strength and Belladonna
plasters have none of the curative virtues
of Benson's. More than 5000 physicians
and druggists have commended Benson's
Plaster as remedy in which the public
may have implicit confidence; while, in q
comparative test with other plasters. BEN

st. Petersburg, March 19.-Answer.
ing a question Iof the correspondent
of the Associated Press competent
official said:
* e,"It is not fact that Russia has
Yielded to the representations of any
powers and modified her demands re-

sentations have been made. Every
tentative attempt to address the Rus
sian government on the subject Of
our pour parlers with China has been
categorically declined. Russia is a
great power and has the right to hold
negotiations with any other govern
ment and no other power has the right
to interfere. Tentatives made in a
friendly spirit have received friend
ly answer But plainly stated, Russia
cannot receive inquiries regarding the
above"

Hazleton, Pa, March 1.-THE Unit
ed Mine Workers convention ad-
journed during the afternoon after
instructing the national executive
board to negotiate for another joint
conference with the operators, failing
to secure which the board has decided
to declare a general strike in the an
thracite field. The strike, If no con-
ference is held, probably will be or
dered to go into effect April 1, al
though the time may be changed by
the board If it deems fit.
1t has not yet been determined
whether the national board, when
called to negotiate fN another confer
ence, will meet at Hazleton or else
where, President Mitchell gave out
this statement:
'This resolution was unanimously
adopted at the forenoon session of the
conventions:
Whereas, We have on several oc-
casions invited and implored the pres.
idents to meet with us in joint confer
ence to mutually agree upon and es-
tablish scale of wages and condi-
tions of employment for the term of
one year; and
Whereas, They have repeatedly ig-
nored our invitations and treated us
with contemptuous silence, scornlng
our invitations and demands alike,
and
Whereas, We believe that we are
entitled to much more consideration
than we receive and we are fully en-.
titled to meet with those who employ
us and who are our equals Under the
law and constitution of the country,
and with them discuss and decide
matters Of mutual interest; therefore
be it
Resolved, That we authorize our
national president. national executive
board and officers of Districts 1, and
8, to negotiate, If possible, for joint
conference of miners and operators
between this day and the list of April,
1901. In the event of their failure to
secure joint conference they may,
by majority vote, decide the policy
of our movement, even If it is neces-
sary to resort to a suspension of work
to force the justice due us as pro-
ducers Of wealth fully equal with our
employers.
"A motion was then made and unan-
imously agreed to that all anthracite
mine workers would respond to call
for suspension of work should the
executive officers fail to arrange a
joint conference with the operators.
It was agreed that If the operators ig-
nored the overtnres of their employees
and forced the miners to engage in a
strike the officials of the organization
were empowered to request all men
employed in or about mines, strippings
and colleries to cease work."
