The Big Whale.

1t draws crowds. We find many
of our best citizens winding their
way to the public landing to view
the monster. 1t has been great at
traction in other cities and no doubt
will be in this. To behold a genuine
Whale is sight very few people
ever had an opportunity to 90 even
on the sea coast and it is still more
rare to see one so far from the ocean
as this, but never the less ~ walk
ing to the landing you will find on
the decks Of a peculiar looking boat
a whale in length 65 feet, and when
captured weighing rs tons. The
monster has many very interesting
points of interest to lovers OF natur-
al history and is well worth going
miles to see. Pay the monster a
visit and you will never regret it.

day.
The Rev. T. II. Shannon, former
pastor Of the Glen Easton church,
was summariIy expelled from the
Methodist Episcopal church by the
West Virginia conference In session
at~sNew Martinsyille this morning.
The case has been an absorbing top
ic all through the session Of confer
ence and the decision reached was
not unexpected. The charge
against him was immortality, the
specific offense being committed
with a young girl who was mem
Der OF his congregation.
The case was brought up at for

postponed tffl this year because the
evidence was lost. This time The

ed divine, read the committees re.
port. Bishop Fitzgerald asked Tor
Ethe documents, and then came the
most interesting feature in connec
ton with the report. The Rev. Mr..
Ward as secretary OF the committee
has been the custodian OF the docu=
ments. He arose and asked That
some other person be appoint
ed to take charge of the papers IN
THE future.
The bishop respected his wishes
in the matter aud appointed the Rev
S. k Arbathnot to-look after the
documents. 1t was thought mi
nor1ty report might be made, but i
there was any It failed to show If
and the report was unanimously
adopted There was no demonstra

Wants Miners to Say Whether The,

House Conference.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. THE con-
ference between Mr.. Mitchell and his
district presidents continued until
11.15 p. m. and at 1870 o'clock, five
minutes before the national president
left for Buffalo, he gave to the press
the following statement, which was
hurriedly prepared after he returned
from Philadelphia last night;
"Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 6, 1902.
ITO District Secretaries and All Mine
Workers in the Anthracite Field
you have no doubt read in the
daily papers the proceedings of the
conference at the White House last
Friday, in which your officers pro-
posed an immediate resumption of
work if the operators would agree
with lis to refer the questions at issue
in the strike to the decision Of the
president of the United States and a
tribunal named by him. You have
noted the reply of the presidents Of
the coal carrying roads, in which
they responded to our oyertures by
denouncing your union, its members
and officers in the most vehement and
malicious manner possible. They also
declared that large majority Of the
striker would return to work if
given military protection, and they
demanded that the president send
United States troops to the coal
fields.
+In order to demonstrate to the
people Of our country that the state
ments of the operators are unfounded
and hat the mine workers are law
abiding citizens, the officers of all
local unions should call mass meet
ings of all men on strike; union and
non-union, such meetings to be held
in each mining town at o'clock
Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 8. We
know that the mine workers are not
restrained from going to work by fear
of bodily harm; and if this is the
sentiment prevailing at the meetings,
resolutions should be adopted en-
phatically declaring the statements
Of the operators to be untrue.
Advice to Commit No LawIessness.
I'VE also auvise that acts of law
lessness by the coal and iron police
and by strikers De denounced and the
services of members of the union ten
dered the local authorities to pre-
serve law and order.
Great care should be exercised
that those on strike do not permit
themselves to be provoked by the
coal and iron police into the commits
sion of overt acts. The operators,
failing to break the strike and de-
prive you of your well earned victory,
are now attempting to array public
sentiment against you by making
false claims. that a reign of terror
exists in the coal fields. Be steadfast
and true while this struggle for hv-
ing wages and American conditions
of employment is going on, and we
have no hesitaney in saying that vic
tory Will be achieved in the not dis
tant future. The heart of the nation
beats in sympathy with you and all
good citizens favor our cause.
Do not fail to have resolutions
drafted in plain, temperate language;
telegraph them at our expense to
President Mitchell's headquarters i'm
mediately upon the adjournment of
meetings.
