MINERS UNION TO TAKE 1T UP
Demand of Men at Fernie Refused
by Mine Officials.

Denver, Colorado, July 16-News
has reached the headquarters of the
Western Federation of Miners today
that the Crows Nest Coal company,
operating the coal mines at Fernie,
b. c., has refused to permit the sur
vivors of the recent disaster at that
place to rescue the bodies of eight
miners that are still buried in the
mine. The Federation officials are
indignant over the action of the com
pany and President Meyer will go to
Fernie at once to take charge of the
strike, which is the reason for the
company's refusal to allow the min
ers to enter the workings. The strike
at Mitchell, B. c., in which 300 men
are involved, has been settled, the
companies there agreeing to recog.
nize the union.

In the Day Of
the Press Gang

In 1858, when English fortunes were
at their lowest. and many deemed
them altogether desperate, there was
the hottest press for seamen on the
Thames since the war began, no regard
being had to projections. Eight hum
dred men were swept away. The crew
OF the Prince of Wales. letter Of
marQue, stood to arms and saved them
selves" In the following year war
rants were issued for pressing seamen
and a~ble-bodied landsmen. The terms
OF the warrant set forth that it was
absolutely necessary in the present
critical situation Of affairs. and in the
face OF a threatened invasion, to equip
the feet" Greenwich pensioners were
summoned from their well-earned re-
pose to man the guardships. Thirty
pressed men fought their way out of
the tender at Sunderland; they were
confined below and the hatchway lad
ders removed, but they contrived
among them to hoist their leader on
deck. He wrested a halbert from the
sentry, and kept him of with one

overpowered the tenders crew. In

do you know the difference between
a pie and a tart?" How often have
you heard this asked at a dinner ia
BILE when the conversation languishes.
and how fruitful of argument the ques-
ton invariably is! Half a dozen "cor-
rect" answers are given in as many
minutes. The fact is, the point is not
capable of such an easy explanation as
might be supposed.
"a pie contains meat, a tart fruit"
say some one. Quite so, but who
eve would deny the existence of ap-
pie pie? The famous Lord Dudley was
heard to remark at a sumptuous, din
ner given by Prince Esterhazy, God
bless my soul! No apple pie" And
he should certainly have known what
he was talking about, for this was his
favorite dish. Further, there exists a
volume dated 1869 entitled THE
Compleat Cook" wherein are to be
found descriptions of how to make a
partridge tart" and an "olive pye."
History may thus be said to veto the
'meat-and-fruit" theory. Mrs. Beeton,
by the way, who should be the SUI
preme court Of appeal in a matter OF
this kind, ingloriously describes her
recipe as an apple tart or pie" Next
comes an even more plausible explana-
ton. "A pie is closed; a tart is OPEN;
thus pronounce by far the majority OF
the oracles on this momentOus sub
ject. There is admittedly much to be
aforementioned Lord Dudley, who was
once questioned as to his correctness
in speaking Of apple "pie," held to the
"closed-and-open" theory, while Lord
Alvanley's apricot tart" was an up
rooted structure, although sometimes
ornamented with a grille Of cross
pieces. But the word pie as any au-
thority will tell you, Is, in it's origin,
an abbreviation of the word pastry"
And we have yet to meet a self-respect-
ing tart whose basis was other than
(more or less ~indigestible) pastry"
Wherefore any tart may be correctly
called a pie, though not every pie, as
we shall now demonstrate, can be de-
scribed as tart. The whole thing turns
on the origin OF the word tart. The
French tourte gives the clue. 1t leads
us to the Latin torta-English twist
ed" A "pie" is that which is made
of pastry. whatever its form or con
tents. A tart" is that which is made
OF pastry twisted. The merest twig-
gle of culinary art on the summit Of
an otherwise unornamented pork pie
confers upon it the proud right to the
title of tart. On the other hand. con-
ceive, il possible. a totally plain dish
OF fruit supported On a slab of bald
farinaceous pastry. and, despite all
preconceived ideas to the contrary, you
may unhesitatingly label it pie

as early as March or April, as, OF
course, they want to get a good store
dry before the winter. Private cutters
rarely begin before May or very early
in June. A really clever turf cutter
can always command a good wage dur
ing the season. 1t requires some Skill,
as 1t is important that the peats should
be cut fairly even and OF n size
throughout, as the sale is effected by
measurement more than by weight.
The turf is cut out in solid blocks OF
about the same depth in such a way
that the air can pass through them.
These little heaps are called hoyles by
the west country folk. After they have
stood some days like this they are
piled up into 'ruckles" (small stacks),
and left thus till it is time to r them
away to house for winter. A wagon
load of turf costs about 16 shillings on

purchasers expense. Peat Is never

There are some people, however, who

matters little or nothing to them, for
the vast peat moors provide them with
an ample supply OF fuel, which they
can have for the trouble of cutting it
and carting it home. Nearly all the
crofters have a piece of peat moor in
cluded in their holdings, where they
can dig out sufficient peat for their
own use. But there is plenty OF peat
to be had in many parts of England as
we'll. 1t abounds in Yorkshire, in
parts of Devonshire, North Cornwall,
Somerset and 7 believe in some dis,
tricts in Wales.
In the west country proper-that is
to say, in the County Of Somerset-it
is very plentiful. There is an almost
unbroken line of it from Glastonbury
to Chiffon. On Shapwick Moor, which
lies between these two places, most is
cut, for here is the happy hunting
ground Of the peat merchants, or. as
they are termed locally, turf mer-
chants" The Somerset peat is Of a
very superior quality, very black and
excellent for burning. All over the
country Of Somerset people of most
classes burn peat. The smell is in no
way unpleasant and the dust is not
worse than that caused by some kinds

makes and once it is alight requires

quisitively tilted. He shifted at Billy
and then backed of. Evidently he was
not prepossessed. Billy dived into his
pocket for his lunch and held 1t coax
ingly between the palings, but the pug
was not to be baited with coarse bread
and ham. He had never eaten so
mean y meal in all his petted, well-fed
life. Billy did not consider this a bad
beginning, however; he was so accus-
toned to being snarled at by the surly
country dogs.
Billy finally broke the Ice in this
wise. Having heard of the pug's pre-
objection for candy, he determined to
play his trump card. He had long
carried in a safe inner pocket a nickel
which he kept partly for the lack Of a
suitable investment and partly because
the consciousness Of ownership ex-
pressed in dollars and cents is so sweet
to a boy. Now Billy had so fallen un-
der the spell Of the pug's entertainments
that he cheerfully spent his nickel
penny by penny, for the toothsome
commodity which was the price Of the
dogs good will. And the weeks of
joyous fellowship that followed left
Billy nothing to regret In his bargain.
Billy's new-found happiness came to
q sudden end, however. when he saw
sinister signs Of departure about the
rectory. The rector's guests were go
ingt and the impending separation
from his dear, canine playfellow filled
him with despair. Now, Billy could
not know that the dog had been given
to the rector's wife. He assumed that
as 1t had arrived with the strangers, it
would also depart with them.

History Of the Art Traced Through

The earliest paper was doubtless that
made from Egyptian papyrus. whence
all similar writing material is named.
The papyrus paper used to be described
az being made Of the thin pellicles ly-
ing between the ind and the pith; now
1t IL known to have been made Of
slices Of the cellular pith laid length
wise side by side wherein other lay
ers were laid crosswise, the whole
moistened with Nile river water,
pressed and dried. and smoothed by
being rubbed with ivory or a smooth
shell. The papyrus paper was super
seeded in Europe by q paper Of other
ibrous matter gradually between the
10th and the 18th centuries. At a re-
mote antiquity the Chinese made paper
of the mulberry tree, sprouts OF the
bamboo, and Chinese grasses. The Chi
nese first wrote on bamboo-boards; but
for 800 years before the time Of Christ
the usual paper Of the Chinese was
made OF silk-waste, solidif1ed In some
way that has not been described. The
inventor of paper made Of vegetable
iber raj the statesman Ts'ai Lun,
born In Kwei-yang. in the province of
Human. who In SO A. D. was in charge

per Of bark, OF hemp. Of rags and Of
old ishing-nets. The governor Of Sa-

expedition into China in 751 A. D.
brought among his prisoners Of war ar
tisans who enabled him to start q pa
per mandatory at Samarkand. Per-
slams learned the mystery, and soon
were making paper Of old linen cloths.
The demand rapidly increased and In
795 new works were set up at Bagdad,
where the manufacture was carried on
until the 18th century. The first man

In Spain under the Moors: in 1854
there was q mill at Jativa. Soon after
traces Of paper-making are found In
