London, Oct Gin connection with
large American orders for coal the
president of the Miners National
Union, Mr.. Burt, N. r, in circular
to the Northumberland miners refers
TO the coal strike in the U. 5. thus:
apparently the strike of 10000
miners is coming 10 an unsatisfactory
ending because the men are returning
TO work in small patches, probably
starved into acceptance of employers
terms. They were the poorest and
lowest paid laborers in United States. e"

President Reached tn. Linn.

Washington, Oct tit is not yet
known whether President Roosevelt
will issue q statement commenting
upon the result of the conference with
the mine operators. Some of the cabi-
net members win advise against such
a course. There is a disappointment
that the efforts of the president met
with no better success, but it seems to
be the opinion of those cognizant of
the situation that the administration
can do no more. GOOD offices" was the
limit Of the presidents power.

NECESSARY TO The HOME.
letter from Congressman WHITE, OF North Carolina.
PE-RU-NA is A HOUSEHOLD
SAFEGUARD.
No Family Should Be Without 1t.

nERUNA Is a great family medicine.
The women praise it as well as the
men; it is Just the thing for the
many little catarrhal ailments of child
hood
The following testimonials from
thankful men and women tell il direct,
sincere language what their success has
been in the use of Peruna in their fam
lilies:
Louis j. Scherrinsky, loa Locust
street, Atlantic, Iowa, writes:
al will tell you briefly what Peruna
has done for me. l took a severe cold
which gave me a hard cough. All doc
tors medicines failed to cure it. i took
one bottle of Peruna and was we'll
Then my two children had bad
coughs accompanied by gagging. My
wife had stomach trouble for wears.
She took Peruna and now she is well.
Il cannot express my thanks in words,
but recommend your remedy at every
opportunity, for l can conscientioUsly
say that there is no medicine like Peru
ma. Nearly everyone in this town knew
about the sickness of myself and fam
lily, and they have seen with astonish-
ment what Peruna has done for us.
Many followed our example, and the
result was health. Thanking you
heartily, 1 MI. j. Sherrinsiy.
Mrs Mamie Wallace, Tulare, Cal.
President of the Western Baptist Mis-
Sionary Society, writes:
II consider Peruna an indispensable
article in my medicine chest. 1t is
twenty medicines in one, and has so far
cured every sickness that has been in
my home for five years consider it of
special value to weakly women, as it
builds up the general health, drives out
disease and keeps you in the best of
health. Mrs. Mamie Wallace.
Peruna protects the family against
coughs, colds, catarrh, bronchitis, ca
tarrh of the stomach, liver and kidneys.
1t is just as sure to cure case of catarrh
of the bowels as it is a case of catarrh
Of the head.

CLEMSON COLLEGE CHAT.
THE BOYS ARE ENG: RlY ANTICI-
pATiii A VISIT TO THE FAIR
Victorious Career Of Clemson's Foot
ball team-Cadet epps Home
or Sick Furlough.

CLEMSON COLLEGE, S. c., Oct,
n, 1902. Special-It is now a set
tied fact that if the uniforms arrive
in time the corps will attend the
Fair this year. 1t is the intention
of the authorities to leave here We'd
nesday afternoon, arriving in Col
umbia that night about nine O'Clock,
and then to 90 into quarters imme-
diatelv after arriving in the city.
The old Agricultural Hall has been
obtained for the quartering of the
cadets. 1t is very probable that ere
this is read, Columbia will be
crowded with the 'wearers of the
orange and purple who will cheer
the Clemson ''Tigers" on to victory
over her formidable rival, Carolina.
During the past week or two, the
foot ball team has won some bril-
liant victories, notably among which
was the defeat of the following in
stitutions: n. G. a. 4 NJ. College;
Georgia School of Technology; and
Furman University. The boys are
playing hard for the Southern
championship.
More interest is now being taken
in the drills than ever before. The
co.nmandant certainly deserves much
credit for the high standard of dis
cipline which he has already lnau-
gurated.
DR. Nesom, the college veterinarian,
has just returned from Chicago,
where he purchased large number
of thoroughbred beef cattle. 1t is
his intention to inoculate them with
Texas fever, and after they have re-
covered, sell them to the farmers of
the State.
DR.. Nesom thinks that cattle
raising would be very profitable
in this State, especially since
the price of beef has advanced so
high.
We were very sorry that on ac-
count of i'll health, Mr.. 6. Ollie
Bpps, had to leave college. Mr..
Epps had to 90 home last year on
account of his health. He will be
missed very much among his college
associates, as he was one of the
brightest men in his class. We hope
that he will soon recover from his
malady, and be able to resume his
duties at college next year.
The many friends of Mr.. l.. II.
Mccullough, one of our last years
graduates, were surprised to learn
that he had entered into the realm
of matrimonial bliss. We wish for
the young couple a long and pros
porous journey through life.
