were well patronized.
John Mitchell, president Of the United
Nine Workers. and Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation OF
labor, In their addresses denounced the
coal operators IN strong terms. Other
speakers were Henry George. Herman
Robinson, John Fahey, Ernest Crosby
and Charles F. Adams.
Resolutions were passed favoring the
formation OF a political party opposed to
all parties controlled by the capitalists
class"
President Mitchell in his address said:
Il feel that I might address you as
fellow victims of the heartless crusade
of the coal trusts against the American
workingmen. I believe that If the coal
trusts had known three months ago that
in order to crush the miners of the an
thracite regions, It would have to crush
the American people, its leaders would
not have refused to extend fair treat
ment to the mine workers.
Il wish to say to the American pub
lie that the mine workers will never re-
turn to the mines until they are treated
as every American working man should
be- The mine owners have sought to con-
fuse the issues involved in this strike.
This is a strike for living wages; 1t is
strike for sufficient wages to enable the
people to live It is a strike to take our
little boys and girls out of the mills and
send them to school where they properly
belong"

VALUE OF TESTIMONY
Greater Than Assertion.

There is none Of us SO hardened but
that when we have been able to aid our
fellow creatures by comforting a benefit
or bringing a little comfort into their
lives we like TO have appreciation shown.
This generally affords more pleasure than
the performance of the act itself, and
in this connection the following letter
from Paris, Texas, lady is of more
Tan usual interest: Dear Friends-I
address you as such for you have been
such to me- l suffered for three years off

temporary relief. l came west thinking
the change of air and water would bene-
fit me; five months ago the bleeding piles
came back on ne. and bled so much that
l thought ! would die I have had four
of the finest doctors in this section of
Texas all they did was to finally near
ly let me go to my grave; all they want
ed was a big sum of money from me and
to operate on me. l said no. no surgeons
knife would enter me; If 1t was my time
to die Cog knew 1t. and when I died |
would die all together. | began hearing
about your medicine l had no faith in
you. but l sent and got a box of your
Pyramid Pile Cure; in two days the blood
flow aad slackened to one-half the
amount and in one week l felt so much
better l walked four blocks and did
little homework. l was not bleeding then
in three weeks l was well. God bless you
for putting such a wonderful medicine
within the reach of suffering men and
women. I shall never cease to recon-
mend your medicine or be without it:
also I used your Pyramid Pills. Sallie

But even if figures were at hand the
number who used transfers would not
be indicated by the number of tickets

was really in operation. This was no

transfers without having use for them
stepped off the cars they threw them
away. The novelty will wear off in
day or two. and then only such per-

Death of N. II. HAYDEN.


Hastings (Mich.) Herald: The sad in-
telligence reached this city yesterday
morning that former Superintendent N.
II. Hayden had been found dead near
Lawton. The facts, as far as the Her
aid has been able to learn them, are sub
stantially ss follows:
Mr.. Hayden, as is well known. has
been in the employ Of publishing house
since the first Of January and has been
working for some time in the southwest
ern part of the state. He went to Law
ton Tuesday morning on business with
the school board and in the afternoon
addressed the pupils of the Lawton
schools. He stopped at the Hotel Gid
dings and in the evening, instead OF 60
ing to Kalamazoo where he expected to
join Mrs Hayden, who was visiting
friends. complained OF being indisposed
and retired. In fact, as we are informed,
Mr.. Hayden had not been we'll for sever
al days and was intending to go to Gil
max and take few days rest.
During the night or early in the morn
ing he went ont for walk. 1t seems
that he was seen by the station baggage
man walking along the track and was
passed by the section gang on their way
to work. According to the dispatch in
the mornings Free Press, he was found
about mile east OF Lawton by the en-
gine crew of freight train and when
picked up his body WAS still warm.
The body was identified by the propri-
etor Of the hotel, taken to an undertake
ing room where an inquest was held and
a verdict rendered that the deceased
came to his death from causes unknown.
The probable cause of his death was
heart disease.
Mrs. Hayden was notified Of her hus-
bands death by Chief Of Police Green
field Of Kalamazoo. Word was also sent
here to Mrs. Morton, sister of deceased,
and her so1 went to Lawton on the
morning train. Mrs. Hayden returned
here on the 3:45 tt ain, intending to have
the remains sent here, but after consult
ing with friends she decided to have the
funeral at Climax where her own people
live. Consequently she returned on the
next train south, accompanied by her
son Bruce. The funeral will be held to-
morrow afternoon at Climax, conducted
by Rev. H. Il. VanAuken Of this city.
Mr.. Hayden had been for many years
prominent in educational circles. He
was born in jackson county and was 46
years old. He had taught very success
fully in several Michigan towns. among
them Hudson, Constantine and Hast
ings. For several years he was in Colo
rado filing superintendencies at Silver
Plume and Grand Junction.
The writer OF this sketch has known
MIR. Hayden for many years and knows
him to have been man OF unusual in
tellectual gifts. OF refined nature and no.
BILE aspirations; a true friend, a warm
hearted, generous man, responsive to the
higher and purer influences that enter
into and affect human action. His
stricken family have the sympathy OF all
in this community in their deep and
sudden bereavement.
Editors Note-Prof. Hayden was
elected supe rintendeat OF the schools in
May OF 1895 aud remained in charge
three years. He was generally liked by
the public and was energetic in his
schol work
