BIG STRIKE GOES On
MiNERS ARE STILL CONFIDENT
OF SUCCESS.
The Strikers Arc Hopeful aud Look
Upon II as Only Matter of Time
When the Operators viii Be Conn
peitcd to Yicid.

As the result Of disturbances in Lack
awanna County. where non-union miners
were attacked by strikers. the Thirteenth
regiment OF the National Guard was call
ed out to suppress the growing lawless-
ness. Attacks upon nOn-union men have
become frequent. and Sheriff Schadt,
feeling that the situation was be-
coming too serious for him to deal with,
appealed TO Gov Stone for the militia.
The Thirteenth regiment OF Scranton
was Immediately ordered out.
Throughout the entire anthracite re-
gion there is a very bitter feeling against
those Of the miners who have returned
to work and their families. A strong
boycott is applied wherever practicable,
and the boycott enters-into every phase
of life. Thus IN Wilkesbarre Sunday
the members Of a Sunday school class
refused to sit on the bench with a girl
whose father is .scabbing' it, Children
have refused TO attend school for some
what similar reasons. and applicants for
the position of teacher have failed OF APP
pointment for the sole reason that they
belong to families some of whose mem
bers We're working in the coal mines.
Meantime the weary struggle goes on
without any hope Of settlement, writes
correspondent ON the ground The min
ers are as determined to-day not TO yield
as at any time since the beginning of the
labor war Instead of being depressed,
they are buoyant and hopeful ard look
upon it merely as a matter Of time when
the operators OF the colieries will be com
PEELED to yield.
Tho frnIc 1ri -, e..
organized labor are sufficient to keep
them from suffering and as long as these
contributions are made it is nonsense TO
speak of the miners weakening All
have enough to eat. and the little garden
patches help much in contributing to their
support. There is no rent to pay. In
d1yldusi owners gladly give the miners
time and the companies have to. The
latter dare not evict, for no one could
be found TO serve the process. Beside
the houses would stand vacant, in case
Of eviction. if. indeed they would stand
at all. The probabilities are that the
houses would be torn down and used for
kinding wood.
The leaders of the strikers are conf
dent that they will win They say they
can and will remain out all winter, if acc
essary. But they do not believe that
this will be necessary. They are con-
WINGED that when the cold weather comes
such howl will go up from the people
for coal that the operators will be con-
PEELED to yield.
The operators on their side are equally
determined. They still hope to be able
to starve the miners into subsection. They
profess to be gaining ground among the
miners, although this contention Is fierce
y assailed. One thing is certain, that
the product Of their mines and cnlm
banks is only as drop in the bucket COM
pared to the public demand for fuel
Three weeks ago the shortage was 2S.-
100000 tons and that shortage is grow
ing greater every day.

Learn How 10 R-sathe.

1t is possible TO exercise ones whole
body, to keep ii strong and well, simply
by breathing properly. Children should
be taught to breathe and to get into
the habit of filing the whole lung spa1e
at each inhalation and Of emptying it
completely at each exhalation. There
is nc better way Of getting to sleep soon
after going to bed than by breathing
properly. Push away the pillow and
lie fiat upon the back, with the muscles
relaxed. Slowly draw in the deepest
breath possible, hold ii for four seconds,
then slowly expel it until the chest sHd
abdomen have collapsed Repeat tliis
until you are tired or fan asleep. There
are scores of ways Of varying this ex-
ercise But this is the essential or
course it IS assumed that one sleeps
with his bedroom windows open.

make themselves at home generally.
To all this we do not object, IL they
are respectable and inoffensive, but
there is one feature that goes little
beyond the limit, and that is rather
exasperating. That is the pilfering.
Penholders, with pens and without
pens, pens new and old, and blotters

quantities. One man | recall used TO

accomplished he folded up the paper

ISLE OF CUBA IN HISTORY.
HsJ Be Divided Into Four Encitin'

EeJ Be Divided Into Four Exciting
and Interesting Epochs.
Since Cuba became known to the
world 400 years ago her story is one OF
romantic incidents and tragic events
and may be divided into four epochs.
The first one can be described as that
of discovery. colonization and conquest.
For 200 years it was the spoil of foreign
foes. Columbus on his first voyage dis
covered the island. and by 1858 pract.-
caHy the entire native population lad
been exterminated by Spanish cruelty.
In 1884 and 15J4 Havana was destroy
ed by the French; in 1924 1t was taken
by the Dutch; from 1850 to 1900 IT was
often ravaged by filibusters, and in 1862
It was taken by the English. At no time
prior 10 1900 was the island safe from
attack by European governments or by
pirates. Then for $50 years or so en-
sued an era of comparative peace. En-
cept for the single incident of English
occupation in 1862. the island prospered
nightly in tobacco and the slave trade,
of which it was the center for Spanish
<NA@SA IA II - Hdtu mat III tue bAAly
haleyon years of this traffic no fewer
than $4,000 slaves were brought into
Cuba.
Along about 1914 began that epoch Of
Cuban history which ended only In the
expulsion OF Spain in 1893. This might
be called the revolutionary period. More
than 10000 negroes persisted in the In
surrectiOn of 1913. The uprisings Of
IS49 and 1851 were led by American
adventures. The Spanish revolution OF
1868 led to An effort for Cuban indie
pendence. which continued with vary
ing fortunes for twelve years. In 1880
the insurrection was put down, but it
lad saddled upon the island q debt of
$S5,O00,000. The revolutionary move
ment which ended In American occupa-
ton may be said to date, in its more ac-
tive manifestations, from about 1893.
When the Maine went down In Havana
harbor the bell rang for the curtain
which was 10 fall for once and for all
on four centuries of Spanish misrule.
The ensuing four years form an epoch
occupation. While much of the work
done by our representatives there is for
all time. some Of 1t Is already in peril
from Cuban incompetence and unrest
The island is accordingly entering upon
another stays Of its existence.

Congress- and was looked upon among
the Wings as d young man of great
promise. In 1919 President Taylor,
pleased with his manner and having con-
tidence in his ability. appointed him Gov
ernor OF the then territory of Minnesota.
In this capacity he acquired large tracts
Of land for the United States by nego-
tiating treaties with the Dakota and
Chippewa Indians. In 1855 he was elect
ed Mayor of st. Paul and was the sec
ond Governor Of the State. being elected
In 1850 and serving four years. At the
expiration of his term as Governor he
was chosen United States Senator and
during the twelve years he was in that
body took a prominent part in its pro-
ceedings. He was Secretary of War N
the cabinet of President Hayes.

BoIEs OUTLINES his POLICY.
Iowau Declares Against Trusts and
Protective Tariff.

Iowan Declares Against Trusts and
Protective Tariff.
Horace Boies of Waterloo accepted the
Democratic nomination for Congress
from his district in letter denouncing
trusts, declaring that the breaking down
Of the protective system is the only meth
cd Of dealing with trusts, and urging a
tariff for revenue only.
Mr.. Boies attacked the steel trust spe-
officially, declaring its failure TO be in
evitable and its policy ruin for the poor
er investors. He also denounced the coal
trust and demanded legislation against
the anthracite mine operators. Mr.. Boies
says that the most important question
now confronting the nation is that of
dealing with trusts. He declared the
trusts, if allowed to grow, would dictate
the price of labor, and he cited the an
tsracite strike as an instance. The rem
edy, he said, was in tearing down the
protective tariff wall.
He pledged himself to any legislation,
whether by Republicans or Democrats,
that would drive out the trusts.

Secretary of War Star Orator at Re-

Elihu Root, Secretary of War. was
the star speaker at the Republican rally
at Peoria, III. He devoted his speech
mainly to a defense of the administra-
ton policy in the Philippines and an ap-
peal to support the President by sending
Republicans to Congress this fall. He
said:
Our position in the Philippines to-day
Is far better than the most sanguine
American could reasonably have expect
ed in those early days OF 1899, when the
Democratic press and Democratic lead
ers were joining with the Republicans in
the declaration that the insurrection
must be put down.

whether they will withdraw from the

PACIFIC CAeLE BEING RUSHED.
Messages from San Francisco to Homo

lulu Within Eighty Days.
Within eighty days messages will pass
over the Pacific cable between San Fran
cisco and Honolulu. This positive state
ment was made by Richard V. Dey, the
San Francisco representative of Clar-
ence II. Maekay, son OF the late John
w. Mackay:
1.-The steam err Silverton, with the cable
on board, is due at San Francisco in
sixty days. There will be no delay here,
for the vessel will steam out to the ocean
beach and in a few hours the cable viii
be brought ashore and safely anchored
or fastened at the station. Once the
American end of the line is made Sc
cure, the steamer will sail for Honolulu.
Fourteen days are allowed for the trip,
so that the other end of the cable may
be carried ashore at the Hawaiian cap
ital and dispatches passed over it early
in December. The remainder Of the
cable will be laid as expeditiously as pos
sible. 1t will touch at Guam and at Ma.
Mia. The cost of the project is about
$12.5O0.OO0."

The Bracelets of
An Ancient Queen

Most magnificent OF all the finds
and the browning feature of Professor
Petrie's last years excavations at
AbydOs. Egypt, was the discovery OF
our bracelets belonging to the Queen
If King Ger. who reigned nearly 5JCO
3. c.
The bracelets were wrought with
he most ingenious and delicate worii
nanship. Even the magnifier did not
reveal the joints. so perfect was the
soldering. This exquisite group OF
jewelry was found in the tomb OF
King Ter the ruler OF the first dynas,
y, and belonged to the Queen. II was
found in hole OF the tomb. in a mum
ny wrapping. Some plunderer had
mutilated the Queens body and being
disturbed. had broken OFF an arm OF
he mummy and thrust 1t into a Grey
Ce OF the wall.
The linen bandages were cut and
20 the great surprise of all four mag
lIticert bracelets OF gold on the mum
ny arm were brought to view. The
finest bracelet Is formed OF alternate
plaques OF gold and turquoise. each
su'mOunted with the royal hawk and
pauelled to Initiate the front OF the
tomb or palace. This bracelet con.
sists Of - gold and II turquoise pla
ques in the form of a facade, whercon
was inscribed the name of the
Queen. The gold was worked by Chis.
el and furnishing.
The second bracelet had a center.
piece Of gold. with amethyst and tur.
quoise beads and bands of braided
gold wire. This is entirely different
in design from the others. Two groups
of beads are united at the Sides by
bands of gold wire and thick hair
probably from tails of oxen. The plat
was made with three gold wires and
three hairs interviewer. The fastan.
ing Of the bracelet was by loops and
button of hollow ball OF gold. with
a shank of gold wire fastened in ii.
The third bracelet Is of spiral beads
OF gold and la2uli, in three groups
The middle of each group consists #
three beads Of dark purple lazuli.
