THE GOLD WATCH.
Who VIII Oct the doId wateh--It's
Free and Open to Anybody
Just Guess the Number
OF Notes--That's All.

There is quite a nice speculation
on now as to who will get the gold
watch being offered by C. C. Patton.
the jeweler. 1t is in connection with
the RECORDS Popular Teachers Con-
test, you know. The one who guesses
closest 10 the number of votes cast
in this contest gets the handsome
watch. The winner gets choice of
gents or a lady's watch, and they
are both beauties. II will pay You
] to see them.
This is open to everybody, and it
adds much interest TO the contest.
Everybody who votes gets guess on
the total; and everyone gets a guess
every time he votes. Vote early and
often, and guess every time you vote.
The voting coupon and the guessing
coupon are both found on page 3.
What will the total be? That's
awfully hard to tell. The writer
would not wager cent that he
could guess within 100000 of the
actual total cast. It's absolutely i'm
possible to figure it out. We figured
up last week that the possible total
was near 1000, 900. but that was
wrong. We overlooked the fact that
each coupon of five votes is a vote
for each of two people. In the total
all of Mrs. Jones votes will be count
ed up, and then Mrs. Smiths and Mr..
Browns, and after all this is done all
of these totals will be added together
to get the gold watch total. So you
see each five votes is really ten, and
every vote counts double in the final
total.
So the possible total is nearly
10000 but probably a great ma
jority Of these will never be cast
Lots of people won't pay for the
RECORD, either because they can't or
don't want to. This will diminish the
total by great big number-hund-
reds of thousands. Then lots of
RECORDS get out of town to people
who are not acquainted with the
teachers. Thus many more votes
will be lost. So it's an awfully hard
matter to guess.
Several guesses from Canon have
come in. The lowest is 1000, and
the highest is l,462, 725-quite a
difference, isn't it?

INDUSTRIAL JOTTINGS.
Mine Workers Officials Will Say
Little About the Conference at
Strike Is Over.

President n. ID. Nichols, Secretary
John Y, Dempsey and the members Of
the board of District No. |, United
Mine Workers of America, returned
yesterday from Hazleton, where they
were in conference all day Thursday
and Friday and Saturday morning with
the officers and board members of the
other two districts.
Neither of the two local officials was
particularly communicative about the
results of the session. In fact, they
remarked that there was little that
could be made known at present of the
happenings at the joint meeting. Gen
eral grievances" said Secretary Demp-
sey, "were discussed during the three
days, and We decided to meet again
in HazletOn, August 27 TO give mat
ters further consideration. Practically
all we could give out for the press was
contained in the resolutions which
have already appeared in the papers"
In these resolutions, the card ques-
tion is fully discussed and the state
ment made that committees Of en-
ployes will wait upon the superintend-
ents and operators to obtain from them
permission to take up the cards at the
various collieries, for inspection at
regular intervals.
The national board, which was in
session for some days at Indianapolis,
has as yet taken no action on the card
question. President Mitchell and the
other national officers have been re-
qucsted to attend the joint session at
Hazleton, where the matter will be
brought directly before them.

No Concessions Made.

The employees OF the Temple Iron and
Goa company have received their an
swer of Superintendent S. r. Thorne,
regarding the matter of doCkage, which
was brought to his notice by a spcial
committee recently.
This committee did not call upon
him Saturday for personal answer,
as had been anticipated, but Mr..
Thorne notified the company's district
superintendents to instruct the men
that henceforth the same rules for
dockage would prevail as in the past.
The superintendent remarked yes
terday to Tribune man that the COM
pany had always treated the men most
generously In the matter of dockagc,
and that the Temple company rules
were most fair. While the men are
docked for all refuse. nevertheless five
hundred pounds of impurities must be
discovered before a mans time is
stopped, according to the present regu-
lations. s&lA
For the first offense A man is stopped
for one day, two days on the second
complaint. and discharged on the
third. Superintendent Thorne de-
clared that all the collicries were run
ming yesterday and no trouble was an
ticipated.

Jenkins Case Argued.

Before the full bench yesterday af-
ternoon argument was heard in the
case stated of George w. Jenkins
against the city of Scranton. to test
his right to the Office of delinquent tax
collector for the city, an office he was
appointed 10 by Former Recorder
Molr.
Attorney A. A. Vosburg appeared for
MIR. Jenkins and argued that his
client is delinquent tax collector and
will continue TO be until he is removed
and that in the meantime he should be
paid.
Attorney II. G. Reynolds, who ap-
peared for the city, argued strenuously
that before the "chaser" to the "rip-
per- bill was passed the power to se-
lect delinquent tax collector was
lodged with councils and that the re
corder had no right to appoint.

LOOKING INWARD.
Could You Look Inside Yourself
You Would See Why the Nerves
Have Such a Wide influence
Over Health.

The influence of Nerve Control over
health was never so fully recognized
as now. 1t is clearly illustrated in the
thousands of cures made by pr. A. w.
Chases Nerve Pills-a medicine that
has ieaped into public favor solely on
its wonderful Nerve restoring proper
ties. The reason Nerve Pills break
down the barriers of i'll health, is be-
cause they restore Nerve Energy-the
main spring of health. They supply
the something that is wanting which
makes the human machinery run
smoothly, they act through that great
network OF human organism, reaching
avery part OF the body-the Nerves.
DIR. A. w. Chase's Nerve Pills do not
let as a momentary stimulant that ex.
.ites and whips up the Nerves for the
time being only-they first stop the
wasting process and then build up
Nerve Energy by replacing Nerve
waste with active, responsive tissue
The kind that vibrates health to mind
and muscle.

This and That.

The Woodward colliery of the Della
war, Lackawanna and Western COM
pany at Kingston is still idle on ac-
count of the employees going out some
time ago when they were refused per-
mission 10 examine working cards at
the head of the shaft.
Many of the carpenters at Auden-
reid have been ordered to Wilkes
Barre, which is taken to mean that the
Lehigh and Wilkes Barre companys
collieries in Hazleton, which have been
idle since Tuesday last, may not re-
sumo operations for some time. None
of the officials of the company will say
what the intention is.
The new LehiGh Valley railroad
bridge near White Haven has been
completed and it Is one of the most
substantial structures along the line.
1t has taken a year and half TO build
It. The work was very dangerous. but
there were no serious accidents, One
