listening to Miss Lillian Wertheimer,

ena. Her technique Is magnificent for
one so young, her touch delicate and
pleasing. Her interpretation Of Mem
helssohn, Chopin, ETC.. is simply wonder
full and promises brilliant future for
the young artistic. The ease with which
she gides from the dreamy, sensuous
passages to the impassioned, forceful
ones marks the true musician. She feel
what she plays, that is evident at once.
A feature of her playing Is the entira
absence Of effort, every note seems
spontaneous as it falls from her graceful
fingers.
Miss Wertheimer has not appeared In
public at all. but 1t Is hoped that she
will be heard this winter, the music de-
partment of the Woman's club having
determined to induce her to appear be-
fore the club.
She is the only daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Louis v. Wertheimer Of S37 West
Broadway. In addition to her musical
gifts she is also very pretty-hair OF mid
night blackness eyes to match and a
faultless complexion.

Pittsburg, July 1S.-The second day
of the conference between the Anal
gamated association of Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers and steel manufacturers
came to a close last night without an
agreement having been reached. An
other session will be held today and
from indications late last night a set
Element or a general strike will be de-
cided upon. Although the meet
ings were held behind
closed doors, the proceedings
were guarded with great secrecy
and it is learned the entire day was
given over to the discussion. each side
putting in it's best work to gain a
point. Nothing, however. was accom-
plished. When the conference adj
journed all the conferees were APP
pealed to for information as to the
status of affairs. but nothing definite
cuold be learned. Late last night,
however, President Shaffer. of the
Amalgamated association, consented 70

Nothing was actually accomplished
today. No proposition was submitted
by either side to the controversy. No
time limit has been set on the confer
ence but it must come to an end. To-
morrow must settle in one way or an
other. If no agreement is reached
the general strike which was set for
last Monday will proceed. | am still
hoping for settlement"
When asked if in the event of a
strike, it would involve all plants in
the United States Steel corporation,
Shaffer replied every union man in
every plant in any way connected with
the steel corporation would be called
out. About $4,000 men will be affect
ed. 1t is believed, however, by con-
sentative steel men that compromise
will be reached today and a strike
averted. President Shaffer himself
while not stating that he is prepared
o initiate a compromise, intimated
should one come from the other side,
he would gladly meet it half way, and
concede anything not compromising
the interests of his people. The big
independent steel sheet mill of Tug C.
Company, one of the largest mills out
side the United States Steel corpora
ton, has resumed operations after
suspension of nearly two weeks for re-
pairs. 1t will pay the same wages. as
the scale provides.

that have signed the scale will start

Cole, Jim and Bob Younger were
sent to the penitentiary twenty-five
years ago under life sentences for
murder. Bob has been dead ten years,
Cole Younger now is 81 years old. He
had intended before he entered the
war to become minister ana since
his incarceration he has devoted him
self to a study of theology. Jim
Younger, who is 81 years of age, also
has done much reading in the prison
and the two men are said by the war
den to be the best educated and best
behaved of all the prisoners.
The acts for which the Younger
brothers are serving life sentences
were committed during the robbery of
the Mortified, Mimi, bank Sept. Z,
1876, and during the retreat of the
robbers. Eight men were concerned
in the robbery-Bill Caldwell, by
whom it was suggested; Cole, Jim and
Bob Younger; Jesse and Frank James,
Clell Miller and Frank Pitts. They
killed Cashier Hayward, Nicholas Gus
tafson, a Norwegian who did not un-
derstand their command to leave the
street, and DR.. Wheeler.
Miller, Chadwell and Pitts we're
killed during the fight that followed
the raid; the Youngers, literally rid
died by buckshot and bullets, surren-
dered when they could fight no longer;
Jesse and Frank James left the
Youngers still facing the officers and
posse and fought their way hack to
Missouri
Cole had rifle ball under his right
eye, which paralyzed the ortic nerve.
There was bullet IN his thigh, an
other in his chest and eleven other
bullet wounds in all. Eight buckshot
and rifle ball were taken from Jlm's
body. He had an ugly wound in his
shoulder and nearly half his jaw had
been carried away by a ball.
At that time Minnesota had pecu-
liar law. 1t provided that any prison
er charged with murder in the first
degree who pleaded guilty could not
be hanged, but must be sentenced to
state prison for life.
For nearly ten years Cole and Jim
were under the surgeons care in prls-
on at Saltwater. To this day Cole is
employed in the hospital. Bob, the
youngest, and who suffered least in
the fighting, was the first to succumb.
