Why the Miners g
Went Out and the 3
Kind OF Men They g
Are Their Mild g
Eyed, Gritty Leader :?

The strike of 1900 did not bring to.
tai suspension of mining. Several large
companies were little affected. If n
value of 50 per ton be taken for the
coal. then over $l6,500,00O earnings
were more or less totally lost. II is es.
timated that the losses of the coal car.
rying railroads amounted to 81, 800. .OOU
as result of the strike OF 1900.
OF the men concerned in this struggle
no generalization can be made, al.
though the thing is frequently done.
The great bulk of the anthracite mines
are in Pennsylvania, and most of the
miners now on strike are the same men
who struck in 1900. Some Of them are
native born Americans-most of them
or foreign parentage, it is true but
Americans none the less. Some are in.
telligent Welsh, Scotch and English
miners who have lived and worked in
Pennsylvania for many years. Some
are Italians, some Hungarians, some
Poles and some Russians from the
Ural regions.
lneSe striking miners are or all
grades Of intelligence. Some Of them
know not word of English: some are
graduates of our grammar schools.
Some of them live in mere novels; some
own their own neat little cottages and
live as decently as the average Amcri-
can laborer. Some are drunken, law
less men; some are sober, industrious
and law abiding citizens.
Probably the most picturesque and
interesting class among the strikers is
that composed of the breaker boys,
those smutty faced. grimy handed.
alert, quick eyed, ready tongued, mis-
chievous, pathetic little slaves who toll
from dawn TO dark far up in the top of
the great black breakers where the
huge Jumps of coal are broken into all
the varying sizes known to commerce.
The breaker boy is tragedy in him
self. He is always bright, quick boy
because none other will answer the
purpose. He often begins to work
when he is not more than eigh. years
old, and by the time he is fourteen he

which his name was connected, he
spent two years in German prison.
On his release he came to this country
and settled in New York. He became a
lecturer on infantile pathology in the
College of Physicians and Surgeons in
1857. and when three years later the
first chair upon diseases Of children es-
tablished in America was instituted in
the New York Medical college he was
given the professorship.
DR.. Jacobi later was professor of dis
eases of children in the University of
New York, but resigned to become elm.
ical professor in the College Of Physi-
clans and Surgeons, where he has since
remained. A few years ago he declined
an offer Of clinical professorship in the
Royal Medical University of Berlin.
DR.. jacob enjoys an exceptionally
high standing in his profession and has
received many tokens of the esteem in
which he is held. He holds member
ships in and has been president of most
of the important medical societies in
this country and is an honored member
Of many European societies. He has
written numerous textbooks and trea-
tises on children's diseases and other
professional subjects.
1t is a custom in Germany for the
pupils and professional friends of a
great physician to dedicate in his hon
or volume of essays, termed "Fest.

guage can express quite the same idea.
1t stands for the superlative of admra-
ton and gratitude. Such volume was
presented to DR.. jacob on the occasion

LORD METHUEN'S WOUNDS.
British Generals Actions when He
Surrendered to the Beers.

Surrendered to the Beers.
Lance Corporal Martin of the First
Loyal North Lancash regiment, who
was captured by the Beers during the
fight in which Lord Methuen was
wounded, has written a long letter to
his wife at Lancaster from Mafeking
under date March II, in which he de-
scribes the action, says the London
Standard Abiding to Lord Methuen,
the writer says:
'The last gunner, finding himself
alone, was just leaving when he was
shot through the head. Lord Methuen
did not leave the guns till then. He
came over to us and stood about fifteen
yards from where l was. Five minutes
later he got his first wound in his right
side and then tried to mount his horse.
| did not know what he was going to
do, but his horse got shot in the leg.
and he had to get off. A few minutes
later he got his second wound in the
thigh and laid down on the ground rs
II nothing had happened. His horse
was shot dead Immediately afterward,
falling on Lord Methuen and breaking
his leg. The doctor went to him to
dress his wounds, but before he had
half finished he was shot, too, and our
general had to lie until we surrendered.
am telling you this just to show what
a brave and good soldier he is, beloved
by all his men, those who had been
with him from the first. He always
had kind word for every one, and [
hope he will pull through and get all
right again"
