son, Bishop Spalding and Parker sat
on the left in the order Of their names.
The proceedings covered about two
hours time, and were given up entire
ly to a discussion Of the time and
method Of proceeding with the pro-
posed investigation.
Will First Go Over the Ground.
The commission decided to begin its
work next Thursday at a. m., the
first days of the investigation to be
devoted to a physical examination of
the mines and the homes Of the min
ers. starting in the vicinity of Scran-
ton The entire anthracite field will
be covered. There was considerable
discussion over a proposition made by
the commission to have expert ac-
countants appointed to audit the state
ments of wages and classification of
miners to be made by the operators for
the use of the commission, but no re-
suit was reached on this point beyond
the announcement by the chairman of
the commissions intention to appoint
such an accountant In case his Sery-
ices should be found necessary.
Basis OF the Miners Demands.
During the progress of the meeting
Mitchell, as the representative of the
miners, presented copy of the orig
inal declaration of the miners, as
formulated by the Shamokin conven-
ton as the basis of the demands Of
the miners. This demand is-first for
an increase of 20 per cent. in wages
of those not engaged by the day; sec
ond, q reduction of 20 per cent. In
working hours of those engaged by the
day; third, the payment for coal mined
by weight at a minimum rate of GO
cents per ton of 2,24O pounds; fourth,
wage agreement between the opera
tors and the miners for an adjustment
of wages.
Baer's Objections to Mitchell
Baer. on the part of the coal op-
orators, took exception to Mitchell's
appearance before the commission as a
representative of the United Mine
Workers, but said that he had no OBJ
lection to his presence as q represen-
tative of the strikers, as such, in their
individual capacity. The commission
made no attempt to settle the contro-
versy. but 1t was made apparent that
the recognition of the miners union
will be an important and knotty prob
lem for the arbitrators Mitchell stated
that he was here as the representative
of the anthracite miners solely.

Club women who are expecting to
attend the sixth biennial of the gen.
eral federation of women's clubs,
which meets in Los Angeles the first
week in May, are particularly inter-
ested In the fact that many railroads
east Of Chicago have practically de-
termined to give a round trip rate
from any given point for one-way
fare; the round-trip rate between
Chicago and Los Angeles on eacn
transcontinental line has been fixed
at $50 Therefore, the exact amount
of railroad fare can be easily estl-
mated.
The time limit on these round-trip
tickets-two months-will give visit
ors an opportunity for some sightsee-
ing after the biennial meetings are
over and one delightful excursion dur
ing biennial week is already ar
ranged.
This will be given May Z, compl1-
mentary to all officers, delegates anu
the program committee. This out
ing. requiring only the greater part OF
one day, will nevertheless AFFORD a
unique opportunity for a comprehen-
sive glimpse of the southern country
and a view of the Pacific.

An Irish lace collar. covering the

A novel notion is corset cover

more becoming to the average woman.
Parasols Of figured and novelty silk.

Large stars OF narrow velvet ribbon
with long ends, finishing with tassels
of the same velvet, find a place on

A popular article Of jewelry is the
pear-shaped pearl, which is worn sus-
pepded in short neck chain and ap-
nears in connection with every kind

Money Made with Sailing Vessels.

A seven-masted steel schooner OF
II 600 tons displacement is among
the ships under construction 1t
Quincy and when built it will be the
largest sailing vessel in the world
This is of interest not only as show
ing that the sailing ship still has
future, but as bringing out the prac-
teal possibilities which have been
developed in the way OF handling
large masses of tonnage under SAL.
Not many years ago steamship OF
so great size as this would have been
deemed wonderful. Now the big
schooner of 5000 to 10000 tons dis
placement are becoming quite COM
mon. They are said to be exceeding
ly profitable. Some of them which
have recently been built on the New
England coast have been earning from
25 to 40 per cent year-something

sive moive power is incapable of do
