as a representative of the miners
union. Mr.. Thomas objected to the
use of the word arbitration" as he
considered the work. of the Commits
sion merely an investigation, but
Judge Gray said that the President
had pronounced it an arbitration.
Mr.. Truesdale, about whose manner
there is a suggestion of bulldog ten
acity, stated that his company, the
D. l.. and W., hoped their employees
would appoint a committee to repre-
sent them, that all differences should
be taken up between the committee
and their employers and only such as
could not by them be settled should
be brought to the attention of the
Commission. He evidently desired to
exclude Mitchell from participating
the settlement and the latter frown-
ed as Mr.. Truesdale outlined his
plan. General Wilson inquired if the
tour of inspection of the mines would
also afford the Commission an oppor-
tunity to see how and where the
miners lived, and Mitchell replied it
would, and that he considered that
most important, at which Baer made
some remark to his fellow operators
evidently expressing ~displeasure.
Judge Gray presented a plan which
had apparently been suggested by
Mr.. Mitchell. It was that each par
ty to the controversy appoint a rep
resentative and that these two com
pare any figures the operators had
to offer with their books and then
ahx their attest thereto so that the
actual figures might not be made the
subject of disputation before the
Commission. This would involve too
great recognition of Mitchell, and
might afford him or his representa-
tive an opportunity to inspect too
closely the operators books, there
fore Baer objected, as did the other
operators by assent, and it was final
ly determined that the Commission
should appoint an expert who should
make such comparison and furnish
the proper attest. A. B. M.

In sections where it will thrive,
there is no better tree to plant in
odd corners or waste pieces of land
than the black walnut. I can point
to 500 acres within a radius of five
miles of my place in Virginia made
up solely of abandoned lots and va
cant corners which have not had a
paying crop for twenty years, I
should say, that could be well plant
ed to forest trees. In three years
from the seed the black walnut will
take care of itself-it never calls
loudly for any care-and if those va
can't lots had been planted to this
tree twenty years ago, their trunks
would have been large enough to en-
able a man to discount their COM
mercial value. The wood from the
black walnut is becoming more and
more valuable; every time it swings
around "into fashion," it is worth
twice as much as it was the couple
of decades previous.-Guy E. Mitch

THE COAL STRIKE ARBITRAToRS.
Who They Are and How They Are
Working.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer:

+bracite Coal Strike Commission,
which took place in the court room
If the Interstate Commerce Com
mission on Monday afternoon, was
extremely interesting. Promptly at
9 o'clock the operators, headed by
President Baer, entered the room
which was already well filled with
about $50 newspaper men and half
as many spectators. A brief interval
before the Commission entered af-
forded an opportunity to study the
parties to the controversy, Presi-
dent Mitchell, accompanied by Dis
trict-President Fahy and DR.. Weyl,
an expert in the Geological Survey,
having entered Immediately after
the operators. Mr.. Baer does not look
the pu~rse-proud, arrogant individual
he has been depicted, but rather con
forms to the type of a Western rail-
road man. He wears an almost con
slant smile which renders it difficult
to read his thoughts. Mr.. Wilcox,
vice-president of the Delaware and
Western, looks like a shrewd lawyer.
John Mitchell is small and clean
shaven and suggests the young divin-
ity student. He was calm and self
possessed and the greetings he ex-
changed with the operators were afa-
non both sides. The Commission
poered with all the dignity of the
Lha)reme Court, the audience rising
as it did so. The session which last
ed barely two hours, was taken up
with preliminary arrangements and
it was determined that the Commits
sion should make a personal inspec-
ton of the mines and homes of the
miners to begin with this morning
when the members will assemble at
Scranton.
Judge Gray, who was formerly a
United States Senator, is the typical
jurist. General Wilson sat through
out the session bolt upright and con-
ductedSsSself with military bear
ing. B3sAop Spaulding glanced from
face to face with an alertness which
suggested the nervous quickness of a
fox terrier. Mr.. Watkins, the man
experienced in coal mining and sell
ing, suggests the railroad conductor,
and Mr.. Clark, who is a railroad con-
ductOr, might be mistaken for a law
yer, as might Mr. Parker, the Geolog-
ical Survey mineralogist.
Some forecast of the difficulties
with which the Commission will have
to contend was furnished by Mr..
Baer's statement that the operators
could not be dealt with as an indi-
vldual but each would present his
own problems and their solution. He
further said that a large number of
operators were not represented be-
fore the Commission and were not
party to the agreement made with
the President. An effort will be made
to secure their attendance and par
ticipation in the work. He said no
objection would be made to Mr..

II is scarcely credible that faithful servant

waiting. but here is an anecdote which shows that
he had a very human side
Brown very fond Of fishing, and one day
when he had fine salmon on his hook there came
q message from the castle on Deeside desiring ms
presence at once. Queen Victoria was gong Tor
her afternoon drive. and it was Browns duty 70
attend her, he always did sitting in the rumble
of the carriage.
Tell her majesty that I'll be quickly" ne said
But the salmon was strong and could not be
landed at once Another and more urgent message
reached him
I'll be in in few minutes
Still the salmon held out, and third and I'M
perative command arrived.
Tell her majesty" shouted Brown, that it's
not possible for me 10 leave without the salmon
Nor did he But whether the Queen knew enough
