MINERS WAKE DEMANDS.
Grievances and Requests Submitted

WILKESBARRE, Pa, Feb 1.-THE
mine workers employed at the Noting
ham coiliery OF the Lehigh and Wilkes
barre Coal Company, at Plymouth, have
forestalIed IN a way the convention at
lIazleton by issuing a series of demands
and requests, and submitting them To the
company. There are eight grievances
and the remedies desired, and FIVE re-
quests, three of which are for an in
crease in wages.
The company has given no answer Yet
to the statement " lille the grievances
are purely local, there are many OF them
that apply to other mines 1t is ex-
pected that other local unions at other
collieries will do the same thing. The
action, 1t is understood, is independent,

beneficial. The smallpox patient
should eat very little, and especially
should he be guarded after the fever
subsidies and the eruption begins, as
then he becomes very hungry and
death may result if fed literally at
this time. The alimentary canal is
now filed with the pustules, and food
only adds to the gravity of the case.
Vinegar given to the patient in tea
spoonful to tablespoonful doses from
the beginning of an attack greatly
modifies the severity of the case, while
many are almost entirely aborted even
when there was no opportunity to ad-
minister it as a preventive before or
after exposure. Medicines do but lit
tie good in smallpox, yet good physi-
clan should be in attendance to guard
against complications. After the YES
icles have fully formed and just before
the pustulation begins, a poultice of

called, but procure it from the man
who made the cider. Then take it
diluted well with water.
If exposed but once, as is usually
the case, tablespoonful of vinegar
three or four times daily for week
will do; but in case of a nurse, con-
stantly exposed, the dose should be
somewhat increased until the effect
is felt, such as pricking of the skin
and a nervousness. Then the dose can
be decreased, but continued as long as
exposed, without harm. Isolation and
diSinfection are also important, as the
less exposure the less vinegar needed.
A good and yet simple disinfectant
is to place a pint of vinegar and an
ounce of carbolic acid in a tin vessel
on the stove; the fumes soon fill the
room and are not harmful to indtvid-
uals.
The diet is also important; should
be light, mostly fluid; buttermilk is

A. 81. WAIT, Editor Beacon.
DEAR SIR:-Your letter of inquiry
regarding smallpox treatment re-
ceived. I assure you have no secrets
concerning this matter. / have an
swered thousands of letters in the
same manner. Smallpox in its malig-
nancy, as I have seen it at Lenora and
other places, is so terrible that / could
not Withhold a secret treatment when
it is SO simple and yet so effective as
the one I advocate and use. / con-
tracted smallpox while attending the
disease and the torture underwent
would not permit me to retain d Sc
cret for the alienation of humanity.
I not only question vaccination, but
1 deteSt pest houses. 1 have had much
experience in the care and treatment
of smallpox, and the mortality is
doubled where pest houses are used.
If life is worth an effort, why invite
death by dragging the poor sick-tor-
tured soul from his comfortable home
to a miserable, accommodating, de

barbarous and belongs to the yaccinat-
ing class. The pest house is usually
managed by drunken hirelings who
care nothing for the death of the poor
sufferers who have been dragged from
loved ones at home. Is it a wonder
people dread smallpox with such bar
barous treatment? / owe my life to a
bitter night against removal to a pest
house.
The vinegar treatment obviates all
this. Members Of the family can
nurse each other without fear of con-
tagion. In other words, should one of
the family contract smallpox others of
the family can take the vinegar treat
ment and remain with him, to relieve
his suffering, without contracting the
disease. Be certain that the vinegar
is PURE APPLE CIDER VINEGAR;
not store 'appIe cider vinegar" so

the size of the regular standing army

question of time when the draft will
have to be resorted to to fill up the

Plantagenet to Hanover.

A correspondent, describing the
ceremonial of prOclaiming the acceS-
sion of Britain's new sovereign, says:
''It was a formality which only few
thousand witnessed. The actors there
in seemed to be some strange crea-
lures, come down from far off age.
Their marvellous dress and accoutre-
ments suggested, more than anything
else, the figures on the court cards of
a playing pack suddenly incarnated. "
The name of the new king, Edward,
also seems to have come down from a
far off age. 1t wears about it the sug-
geStion of medievalism. The last
monarch who bore it before it's as
sumption by Victoria S Son--the con-
sumptive boy who played his brief
part on the kingly stage-lived in the
dying glow of the fires of chivalry.
His distinguished father, Henry VIII,
was in his prime fond Of the joust and
the tournament, and famed as one of
the principal participants in the tour
ney between the knights of France
and England on 'EThe Field Of the
Cloth of Gold.''
Before Henry's son, for three
months ruled the young prince, Ed
ward V, whom his cruel uncle, Rich
ard III, deposed and caused to be
murdered in the tower.
But the historic Edwards, whose
reigns are filed with such tales of
war, adventure and intrigue, as to ex-
cite the imagination and stir the
blood, are the first four of that name
whose careers link together the years
stretching between the last century
of the middle ages and the stormy era
that followed the success of England'S
arms in France.
Edward l, Henry III S son, account
ed the w4seSt and best of the Planta-
genets, has been decreed by history to
be great, brave and sagacious ruler.
In the thirty-fve years of his reign
1912 to 13O7-he addressed himself
with undagging energy to the task of
! bringing the whole island of Great
Britain under the dominion of Eng
land. He was only partially success
full in this endeavor, but he succeeded
admirably in his other favorite pro-
jects, the establishment of a stable
monarchical system and the improve
ment of practical measures of legisla-
| ton.
The second Edward S reign was prin-
cipally noted for two eventS-his dis
astrous defeat by Robert Bruce at
Bannockburn and his subsequent de-
position and murder by order of his
wife.
Edward the III, who reigned from
1927 to 1877, was, as statesman and
a warrior, the best of his time. The
victories won by himself and his son,
Edward 1.-THE Black Prince" at Crecy
and Poitiers, would alone have been
sufficient to render his name illuStri.
Gus for all time.
The fourth Edward was far below
the standard of the first and third
wearerS of the name, and, while bis
stormy reign brought to the surface
the fact that he possessed both energy
and courage, history has branded him
as cruel and a absolute monarch.
The present Edward is far remove
from all of his predecessors of the
same name. He is not great man
but he may prove a safe and conServa
tive sovereign, steering middle course
between the remarkable achievements
. and the egregious faults and weakness
es of the Edwards who preceded him
