Germany, in her hunt after the
causes leading up to consumption, has
demonstrated that fifty per cent. of
the cases in that country could be
traced to habitual breathing of dust
tainted with injurious substances. 1t
is possible that untainted dust might
work considerable harm to the breath

NEWS OF LOCAL COURTS
ARGUMENT IN A GAS CASE BEFORE
JUDGE CARTER.
Point in Contention Is whether Gas
Pipes Are Personal Property
Damage Suits Filed.

- Superior Court, Room 5, before Judge
Vinson Carter, argument in the injunction
suit of the Indiana Natural Gas and Oil
Company against Edward B. Ball, the
Matthews and Company, George n. Cat
terson and others, was continued yesterday.
For the plaintiffs in the case appeared w.
H. II. Miller and c. c. Shirley. of Kokomo.
The defendants were represented by Roscoe
Hawkins and Arthur w. Brady. The con-
tention which Judge Carter is asked to de-
termine relates to a matter of jurisdiction
whether the case can be brought TO the
Marion county courts or must be heard in
the county where the property of the plain
tiff is located.
For the gas company w. II. II. Miller and
Mr.. Shirley held that Judge Carter has
proper Jurisdiction in the case since the gas
pipes with which the company seeks to
enjoin interferference are personal property
and may be handled and moved like any
other form of personal property. For the
land company, Mr.. Catterson. Mr.. Ball and
the others whom the gas company seeks to
enjoin, Attorney awkins argued that the
pipes in question are not personal property
in any sense, but are real estate, attached
to the thirty-nine acres of the company
where it's power house is located. Judge
Carter mas, therefore, no jurisdiction is the
of the defendants attorneys. The
argument will be continued.

A Valentine Party.

New York Post.
A novel Valentine party given last year
is available for any celebration OF the day
devoted to this patron saint. The COM
pany included an equal number of young
women and young men. the former seated
around the room, each having a vacant
chair at her side. To this came in turn
every young man. making in the two min
utes allotted him a proposal Of marriage
to the young woman. If she liked the way
he did it she gave him a little red paper
heart, while. If his proposal was not I'D
TO her standard a white mitten was be-
man TO receive the most hearts took the
prize, a consolation trophy being bestowed
upon the unfortunate individual who ac-
cumulated the greatest number of mittens.
Both mittens and hearts were concealed in
tiny sealed envelopes. which the recipient
was not allowed to open, depositing them
all in a little bag provided for the pur-
pose. These bags were turned over to the
committee of award at the end Of the con-
test. In this way the fun was heightened,
and some possible little embarrassments
avoided. The only criticism made was that
the girls had rather the better of the ar
r~angement, and that II would be only fair
for a leap-year privilege to be granted. and
let the young women make the rounds as
suitors.

FROM PILLAR TO POST
PROPOSED MINERS SCALE CAN FIND
No HAVEN OF REST.
Both Miners and Operators
No Agreement.

The scale subcommittee OF the miners
and operators disagreed about 3 o'clock
yesterday afternoon on the proposition OF
the miners and adjourned to turn the mat
ter back to the general scale committee.
The mint met at 4:3O. but the miners
asked for time TO hold a meeting, and an
adjournment was taken until s o'clock. At
s o'clock the general committee met, but
without reporting the text OF the meeting
of the miners again referred the scale back
to The subcommittee. All day yesterday
the miners remained firm in their stand,
while the operators refused to make any
further concession other than the present
scale. Much line was spent in discussing
the proposed increase OF 10 per cent. in
wages, that issue being made paramount.
as 1t affects the entire competitive field.
while the other demands of the miners
only refer to certain districts. On the de-
mands for run of mine and a differential
between pick and machine mining up till
last night there seemed to be no possible
chance of agreement. The operators in
sist that the powder question and check
off system are local issues only and should
not be brought before the joint confer
ence. The possibility Of a disruption OF the
JCNNN "ao
agreement of the subcommittee, which
shows that the operators are standing to-
gether to resist all demands. The demand
for an increase in wages being made the
paramoun issue before the committee
placed the Illinois operators on the same
footing with the others and relieved them
of discussing and debating against their
present system of payment.
The fact that the matter has again been
referred TO the subcommittee without first
entering the general committee indicates
that both sides have decided to try once
more to get together rather than let a dis
agreement stand. The action OF the sub
committee is generally considered final by
both operators and miners, although IL is
not necessarily so, and for this reason 1t
was thought best to try once more before
leaving the matter to the general commit
tee and the joint conference.
The subcommittee was in session about
one hour and half and then adjourned at
the request of the operators 10 meet this
morning at 9 o'clock. The operators then
held a netting TO further consider what
they might have to offer in opposition to
demands OF the miners.

Tea at Afternoon "Teas."
New York Evening Sun.

New York Evening Sun.
The Russian tea is made by pouring boil
ing water over English breakfast tea, let
ting 1t draw for a moment and then adding
a pony of Jamaica rum, with additional
boiling water. after which the tea is al
lowed to steep for a few minute longer.
1t is then served in cups, with a separate
decanter of Jamaica rum, thin slices of
lemon and powdered sugar.
Oscars tea. which became a speciality
at the Waldorf a season or two ago, when
the tearoom used TO be thronged each after
noon from 1 until 6, has often been diIated
upon and It's method OF preparation pleaded
for. In reality the tea was OF many sep
arate brews, Oolong, green, English break
fast and the Ceylon teas being served as
1T was made perfectly fresh for each or
der and was well served with thin sand
witches of brown and white bread and but
ter, which are an admirable a-ccompanl-
ment for afternoon teas.
Too many American hostesses are not
particular enough as to the quality of the
tea or Its preparation. In many cases 1t
is not served hot and In most cases il is
so weak that 1t is very properly passed by.
This probably is the cause of the general
rejection OF the tea at most of these after
noon events.
Tea is served from an urn or samovar
properly and thus can at least be kept hot
and renewed; but when servants hand
around tea that comes up through a dumb
waiter or by the stairs it becomes really
~unpalatable, no matter how pretty the
china may be or how good the music which
serves as the accompaniment.
sandwiches are always more in favor
than cakes at teas. So within the last few
seasons any number OF new sorts of sand
witches have been invented by caterers, both
ornamental in appearance and pleasing to
the palate as well. Thin rolls of bread tied
with narrow ribbon and others cut in vari-
GUS shapes are among those most In favor.
