Village Will Pay for SprinkIing the
Streets.

The legal voters of Bellows Falls
corporation, at a special corporation
meeting held Saturday evening in
banquet hall, voted to sprinkle the
streets the coming season in much the
same manner as was done last year.
A tax of five cents on a dollar was
voted to defray the expenses and the
matter was left in the hands of the
board of bailiffs and the superinten-
dent of the streets. This action of
the voters will bring relief to many
people in the village, who began to
think we should have a REPETITION of
the experience of two years ago, when
but very little sprinkling was done
by any one. 1t was also voted to
lay a sewer along the Westminster
terrace to empty into the sewer on
Westminster street below the resi-
dence of Horace W. Thompson, and
the bailiffs were authorized to borrow
the money for this purpose. This i'm
provement has been much needed for
some time.

When an experienced physician offers
to give away $40 600 worth of a New
Treatment for disease of the heart,
nerves, stomach or dropsy, it is cOnclu-
sive evidence that he has great faith in
1t. And when hundreds of prominent
people freely testify to his unusual skill
and the superiority OF his New Special
Treatment, his liberality is certainly
worthy of serious consideration.
That DR.. Miles is one of the worlds
most successful physicians is proven by
hundreds of testimonials from we'll
known people. One patient cured after
failure of eleven Grand Rapids physi-
clans, two after being given up by six
and seven Chicago physicians, another
after nine leading doctors in New York
City, Philadelphia and Chicago failed.
1000 testimonials sent upon request.
The eminent Rev. W. Bell, D. D., of Dayton,
o., Gen., Sec'y of Foreign Missions, writes
we desire to state that from personal ac-
quaintance we know DIR. Miles to be most
skillful specialist, n man who has spared nei-
ther labor nor money to keep himself abreast
of the great advancement in medical science"

treatment | could hardly walk across the

Mrs. w. A. Warren, of jamestown, N. Y, re-
ports: "For years had severe trouble with

RELIEF FUND.
Perfect System by Which Half a Million
People Are Being Maintained.

People Are Being Maintained.
Little has been heard lately of the
relief fund which has been established
by the union, other than the reports of
some Of the amounts which have been
contributed to 1t by labor organizations
and citizens throughout the country.
Predictions were freely made when the
fund was established that it would be
an endless source Of annoyance to the
union and would cause Jealousy and dis
was intended to benefit.
For few weeks after 1t was put in
operation the relief system was crti-
cised, mostly by persons who knew
nothing about its workings, but this
carping suddenly ceased, and for the
past few months not an adverse criti-
cism has been heard.
To those who have been permitted to
examine the relief system, the perfect
methods by which tremendous sums of
money are handled each week and satis-
factorlly divided between the three dis
tricts, and by them distributed to their
locals and by the locals to the individ-
uals on strike or made idle by the strike,
the workings are a revelation and re-
bound with credit to the general officers
of the union who planned tho methods
and simplfied most complicated prob
lem.
The insinuations Of those who are op-
posed to the miners in their struggle,
that the relief money would soon come
to an end, have also been proven false
and groundless, for 1t can be stated that
the miners union has more money at
Its command today than at any time
during the twenty-five weeks since the
strike began. Not only is there more
money In the relief fund than at any
time since 1t was established, but there
are more people interested now In main
tanning 1t at the present high level than
ever before and there is scarcely town
or hamlet In the whole United States
that is not preparing to contribute its
mite towards the fund
II for any reason the mine workers
should be defeated in their efforts to Sc
cure additional compensation for their
dangerous labor, the relief fund will not
be responsible for the non-success of
the strike. The strikers are now re-
ceiving more per week than ever before,
and the arrangements made by the
union are to steadily increase the al
lowance according as the weather
causes increased demands. So far the
relief money has been almost confined
to buying food and provisions, but it is
reported that in the near future the
mine workers will receive special al
lotments to be used in purchasing win
ter clothing and shoes.
To appease the steadily-increasing
wants of over half million people, and
to do 1t In manner which does not dis
criminate and satisfies the beneficaries,
as has been and is still being done In
the anthracite region, can only be ac-
complished by system of distribution
which must be marvelously perfect
and this Is what the miners relief fund
must be conceded.

WORKING FOR A SETTLEMENT.

There Is strong hope In administra-
tion circles at Washington that the
coming week will see plans perfected for
tho settlement of the strike. Negotia-
tions are now In progress to that end.
1t is believed that President Cassatt, OF
the Pennsylvania Railroad, will be a
controlling power In bringing about this
settlement Heretofore he has been
kept In the background, but there is
reason to believe that strong appeals
have been made to him to use his great
influence to bring the operators into a
compliant mood.
Secretary Root did not call upon the
president until last evening, when he
had brief conference. 1t is believed
that the report Of his interview with j.
