 The committee will take up these two scales, and from the demands and pro- posals they contain arrange new scale for the coming years work. The strug- gle betweens the two forces in the com mittee room will be very stubborn, and 1t is hard to forecast result. It is prac- tically certain that few concessions will be granted by the operators other than those contained in the present Pratt scale. It is not generally believed that strike will result, but the opposing factions ex- press hope of an early agreement.
 Yesterday Mornings Session.
 The meeting of the miners was called to order at 9:S0 o'clock, at which time President Flynn introduced T. l., Lewis, national vice president of the United Mine Workers from Bridgeport, O.. and w. D. Ryan, secretary and treasurer of the Illinois district No. 12. MT. Lewis made speech advising prudence and caution in making demands on the oper- ators. MT. Ryan's address was along the same lines as that of MT. Lewis, only he advised the miners to get all possible and to secure a better organization for next years demands.
 President Flynn then appointed a com mittee consisting of W. D. Bynum, W. A. Turner and Sim Banks. colored. to notify the operators association that the miners were prepared to meet with them in joint session. The convention then Adjourned to executive session, discussing some minor changes in their demands to the operators.

At the Spenazuma.

VIM. Hawkins was in Stafford
last Monday and reported that the
work, of which he was in charge,
of doing the annual assessment on
all the claims owned by the Spena-
yuma company both in the Black
Rock and Clark districts, has just
been completed.
Mr. Hawkins has great conf
dence in both of these districts
and says that in the incline of the
Baby mine at Black Rock very
rich copper ore was encountered
and that rich gold and silver ore
was found in the tunnel on the
Marguerite. He is confident that
the ore bdies encountered are very
extensive.

In reviewing number of court
martial cases in the Philippine
Islands recently General Chaffee,
military governor of the islands
said: "History affords no parallel
of whole people thus practically
turning war traitors, and in the
genius of no other peoble was
there ever found such masterful
powers of SECRECY and dissimula-
ton, but it is needless to say that
no powerful state was ever erected
on such immoral and Enlightened
foundations" This proves that
the statement made by those op-
posed to the United States holding
the Philippines, that Uncle Sam
was simply buying q repetition of
the American Indian wars, to be
correct.

party did fairly well during the
election when the Bmy,tin passed
as q Democrat and fought the
party's nominees, it can certainly
take care of itself now that that
sheet is scarcely anchored on the
side of the Republicans. You

We Now Grow Giant Bats.

With the Philippines we have ac- quired quite remarka ble addition to our zoology in a giant bat that far exceeds in size his cousins on this continent. He is d repulsive looking, stupid, slow-fying creature, that often reaches the measurement of 30 inches from tip to tip of his demonic wings, says the New York Herald.
 With all of his horrible appearance he is not only harmless, but to some extent useful, in destroying noxious insects and in furnishing small amount of not very appetizing food. In the evenings these bats swoop through the streets of the towns, in large numbers, slowly, and apparent ly without ability to dodge objects that present danger, so they are read fly struck down with clubs. They are sold in the market at less than two cents each, being bought only by the very poor natives, who get lit- tie quantity of meat off each side of them under the wings. The rest is too tough and strong, even for poor hungry Filipino.

Life Near the Euuntor.

Rev. Father Grison, of Stanley Falls, Africa, writes that Europeans have a very inaccurate idea of tropical tenn peratures. He passed eight years at the equator on the Pacific coast, he says, and never saw the mercury above S5 degrees, while at Stanley Falls the maximum is 90 degrees, and the nights are deliciously cool. On the other hand, there are frequent tenn pests of indescribable violence, and Fa- ther Grison has counted 66 lightning flashes in one minute, the thunder be- ing continuous, and has seen ten thun- derbolts strike within radius of a few hundred metres in the space of two hours.-Youth's Companion.

 The czar is known to be the richest sovereign in the world, but he is probably also the richest man, as he has an income of at least $10,0o0,00 per annum.
 The sultan of Turkey annually gives away great many presents, most of. which. are made in a special workshop in Constantinople; half a hundred men being constantly em- ployed in the work.
 King Edward and his family are very fond of Lord Leicester's family and their wonderful home, which out wardly is cross between the British museum and the National gallery and internally is veritable storehouse of artistic treasures.
 The young sultan of Johore will spend the summer in Europe and is now in Paris with large party. The sultan was born in 1875 and succeeded to the sultanate on the death of his father six years ago. He is fond of sport and has large string of race horses, his eolors being well known on the courses in Singapore and Cal cutta.
 There are said to be many heart burnings in Italy at the frmness of the king and queen in refusing to ac- cept any of the gifts usually offered by the people on the occasion of the birth of royal heirs. Even some beau tifully made little garments, which it was hoped might be regarded as harmless, were sent back, like reject ed manuscripts, with thanks"
 Many theories have been put for ward with regard to King Edwards choice of name; that is, the dropping of the appellation "Albert." It is, however, no secret that the king never liked the name of Albert" and it was only in deference to his moth CTS wish that he signed himself Al bert Edward.'' More than once he asked to be allowed to sign himself Edward" but the queen was ob- durate. The king knew that the name of Albert" would not be con- genial to the British nation, and as soon as Queen Victoria had passed away he communicated to Lord Sails bury his wish to be known as Ed ward VII.

She Knew.

Mildred, who is wee mite in years and stature, is the sunshine of cer- tain home. It is frequently the cus- tom for her father to read aloud from the daily papers to the family mem bers when he comes home in the even- ings. His, business has to do with the wholesaling of books, and for that reason he is much interested in the benefactions of MT. Carnegie in es- tablishing free libraries. These arti- cles he always reads aloud, and Mildred has come to know in a vague way about the philanthropist giving away so many free libraries. It so happened that on a recent evening her father noticed an advertisement in the paper which he thought might in- terest his wife, and he read 1t aloud. The advertisement was headed "A Picture Given Away Free" Mildred listened closely, and after he had finished she said:
 T bet know who giv's tn pickter away"

 'It has always been understood that Mir Mckinley was absolutely lacking the sense of humor. That understand ing no longer holds good" says Washington correspondent. Whether it was the wording of some of the congratulations showered upon him for his declaration that he would not be third term candidate that aroused the sense of humor in him, doesn't matter. The fact remains that he now has it. His first exhibition of it al- most frightened several members of the cabinet, but they have become ac- customed to it now and find it an agreeable change The exhibition was in connection with some of the con- gratuIations MT Mckinley received during the past week. He has a little bunch of them on his desk from his would-be republican successors that are particularly fulsome in tone. The first man he showed them to, with a perceptible chuckle, was Secretary Hay, who loves joke as well as the next man, notwithstanding his digni- fled and frowning looks, but who could not hide his astonishment at MT McKinley's quiet enjoyment of the congrat tulatIens of these men for hay ing taken himself out of their way. However, it soon spreads, ahd no one of those congratulations will meet MT Mckinley or any member of his cab inet for a long time without arousing an inward laugh.
