Pittsburg, Kan, Aug. 4.-The reso1u-

Joint conference of districts IA, II, and
rs, until next year, did not defer the
organization from taking joint action
against the non union companies of the

impression obtains generally among
the miners of this district, but it is not
the situation. President George Rich

Gilmour, both of the executive board of
district A. stated today that the mine
workers of the three districts would
wage Industrial warfare against the

that each district make as good a con-

tricts. These contracts-wil then be pre-

Mirano was accidentally crushed out by
the wheels of a car. Acting on the i'm

and with spade, shovels and picks, pur-
sued them across the river flats and ra-
vines almost to the east side police sta

and with a couple of box cars, started
for the scene of the accident with q
squad of policemen and a number of
trainmen armed with shotguns, pick
handles and other weapons.
On reaching the stock yards the police
found the mob had subsidized and there
was no further demonstra ton.

There was woman on the train that
seemed affected as the train crawled
higher and higher up the peak. There
was some uneasiness felt lest the alti-

Just as the party reached the peak the
woman tainted. Desperate efforts to re-
vive her failed. She was hastily carried
into car. an engine hooked on and the
train started for Manitou. AS the lower
altitude was reached the woman began
to recover BY the time the special

Did she thank the manager of the

result of an injury received while set

and lay down with his head over the well

purchase was by Hector Madison, a ranch

acres adjoining his Ebert county ranch
The other sale was of 1,500 acres to J. D.

they have much difficulty in keeping their

insects which infest the air, beating about
their faces and fairly binding them 1t
has been noticed that some of the stokers
wear goggles to protect themselves from
these pests. The front ends of the loco

of bugs in the air along the road from
remains of caterpillars and other members
OF the insect family, and on some OF the
engines it is particularly noticeable.

railroad must hunt others to repair its
