room. The need of another lodge
meeting place is so apparent and
so many requests were made for

MASS MEETING
is POSTPONED
Chandler Men Continue TO Work
without Interruption.
COAL CREEK MINE WORKING

No meeting of the miners will
probably be held for the present
in regards to the colored men
working at Chandler Creek. AT
least this is the decision of the
Coal Creek men.
The report which was sent to
this office from Rockvale yesler-
day seems to be little premature.
The Coal Creek men are work
ing today and it is understood that
they will work for the rest of the
week.
The miners at the other mines
may not take any decisive action
for the present because the condi-
tions at Chandler are different
from what they were when the
bunch of japanese were imported
there the early part of the
yeer, inasmuch as the miners who
were employed there have nearly
all left the place and have secured
employment elsewhere, Had the
old Chandler miners remained in
camp the matter would have been
taken up and disposed of at once

Priests Lead Movement.

There was started in the Panther
Greek valley last week a movement de-
signed to effect the withdrawal of the
troops from the region and chiefly to
nave the cause of the miners placed in
what is termed its true light before the
American public. 1t is headed by three
priests, Father Francis Brady, of Tam
aqua; Father McCannan. of Summit
Hill, and Father Norton. of Coaldale,
all of whom have spent years in the
coal region and know the situation
thoroughly.
They declare that the soldiers are un.
necessary to preserve order, and that
instead of suppressing riot, they incite
It. They also assert that the miners
should be set in their proper light be-
fore the public.

AID ASKED FOR
STARVING INDIANS

Washington, Sept. 16.-The Indian Of
fee today received from Senator Raw
Inns a petition from the citizens of
Bluff, San Juan county. Utah. asking
that further relief be extended to desti-
tute Navajo Indians in that vicinity
and that Howard r. Antes of Aneth
and Jens Nielsen of Bluff be desig-
mated to assist Samuel L. Shoemaker in
distributing funds made available by
the Indian office some time ago. The
petition states that Indians within a
radius of fifty or seventy-five miles of
Bluff have suffered from lack Of water
for several years past and need speedy
relief.
Tnasmuch as the Indian agent insists
there is no unusual suffering the Indian
office will take no further action at
this time. 1t is admitted that there has
been suffering among the Indians in
that vicinity but there is ample en-
ployment awaiting them if they are dis
posed to work. and the department is
not favorably inclined to completely
support those in a position to help
themselves. The petition commences

ice at the Stratton residence will take

s Stratton, the northumberland of
this city, owner Of the famous indie
pendence mine in the Cripple Creek
district, died at his home in this citv
ct 9.35 o'clock tonight, after an illness
of several months.
He had been in a critical condition
70. several weeks and his death was
expected at any time today. He had
been unconscious throughout the day.
and the relatives, including a sister,
Mrs Jennie Cobb of San Jose, Cal,
who is the only near relative who sur
wives Mr.. Stratton, did not leave his
bedside at any time
Mr. Stratton was born in Jefferson
vile Ind, July %, 1S4S. He was edu-
Gated in the schools of that city and
at the age Of II took up the carpen-
ter's and draughtsman's trade. which
he mastered. He has resided in Colo
rad Springs for thirty years, having
come here in 1872. During all this
time ne has been more or less inter
ested in mining, being a prospector in
various camps of Colorado as long as
fifteen years before he opened the ia
nous independence bonanza.
In April, 1891, having seen some
specimens of gold ore from the Cripple
Creek district that impressed him ia
vorably. he went to that camp to
prospect. On the Sd of July, after
weeks of fruitless prospecting, a man
who agreed to grub stake him having
disappointed him, Stratton decided to
go to Cripple Creek and stake out a
claim on his own account. He rode
the thirty five miles from this city to
the camp on horseback and on the
morning of July 4, 1891, staked out
the Independence and Washington
claims, in honor Of the day and the
Father of His Country. The Independ-
ence gave original assays of $3.50 to the
ton, and in 1892 he leased and bonded
the Washington for $4,000.
The Independence yielded Stratton
millions and in 1898 was sold by him
for $10000,000, he retaining, however, a
very. considerable interest. even after
receiving that sum of money.
He was a man whose private chart
ties were boundless and his interest
in the public welfare was without lin
It, He was the owner of the Colorado
Springs street railway system, on
which he has spent $1.5OO,OOO in the
past two years. His wealth is esti-
mated at anywhere from SIS, ZOO, 900 to

assistance had been received, nearly
100000 acres examined, and ga plans
made. Not only does example set by
each plantation affect the neighbour

a public agitation of the question of
tree planting, and extensive planting on
the other land has frequently followed.

born Americans are entering the army
in good numbers The ratio for the
wear was Sc native-born men to Ia

OF foreign born recruits in 1901, Ger
many supplied 616. with Ireland a close
second with GOT. England furnished 1872,
Canada 2S6, Russia 120. No other
country gave more than 100 men. Nor
way sent &c, Scotland AZ, Switzerland
as, Italy 40 and France 81; while the
foreign born recruits from all the rest
of the world, numbered 1,190. Minors
accepted as soldiers numbered 3,261:
1915 men We're between the ages of 81
and 80, 1850 were over 80 and under 40,
and 63 were over 40 when they enlisted.
Some Of the recruits were laborers,
farmers, soldiers, clerks. machinists and
engineers, printers, carpenters, cooks
and shoemakers. Their trades will be
of use to them in the army; and when
they have served their enlistments, the
recruits of the year will find that their
military experience will be of use in
their trades.
