on the choice of the proposed arbitra-
ton tribunal and desires the president
to have an absolutely free hand in the
selection of members of the commits
sion to be charged with an adjustment
of future relations between the en-
ployers and employees. He laid special
stress in stating his objections on the
proposition that one of the commits
sion should be a judge from the East

very insistent in some Of his objections
which he voiced In what might be
termed counter proposition to that
of the operators.
Executive Boards to Meet.
the Miners union had exchanged
views freely and gone over this coun-
ter proposition of Mr.. Mitchells, a can
was sent out by President Mitchell for
joint meeting tomorrow of the exec
utive boards of the Mine WorElrs'
| union for the three anthracite districts
of Pennsylvania. At this meeting, it
is believed, an agreement will be
reached on a statement to be officially
promulgated by the union in response
to the proposition from the operators.
President Roosevelt, having ascer-
tanned the views of Mr.. Mitchell at
once communicated with the operators
and initiated effortsi.to reconcile the
differences developed and to have the
| operators make some further conces-
sions, his aim being to reach a COM
mon accord between the miners and
| operators whereby the labor dispute
| may be finally composed and the min
| ing of coal resumed.
Talks With Gompers
| When the last conference had been
concluded Mr.. Mitchell left the White
house, and after a brief conference
with President Gompers, of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, and some
other local labor leaders, departed for

to Washington was Bby invitation of
President Roosevelt, who asked the
miners president to come in order
that they might discuss the terms Of
the proposition submitted to the pres
ident last Monday night, by the coal
railroad presidents in the hope that
the miners and the operators might be
brought into agreement as to the APP
commission to arbitrate existing diff
ferences. -
The discussion of the situation
was entirely amicable. Mr.. Mitchell
was in conciliatofy mood and the
president was very Jealous in his eff

FIGHT TO A FINISH.
Rather and Roadrunner Meet In Hat
tie Royal from which the Bird
Emerged Victor.

From a story in st. Nicholas we
take this exciting picture of a ISxan
outdoor battle:
Harry, who was leading, stopped,
and motioned them to be still. A Pc
culiar harsh staccato call came from
some bird in their front, followed by
another, and another. This was ac-
companied by a steady sharp hum
ming, which reminded Ralph of the
noise made by a typewriter when the
carriage is dragged over the teeth in
it's rear Peering cautiously through
q fringe of catclaw, they saw a small
open glade not ten yards across, and
in it's center a huge notified rattle
snake was coiled, ring upon ring, its
wicked dark head raised six inches,
and waving slowly to and fro. Its
small eyes cleaned like carbuncles,
and its tail vibrated so rapidly that
the tip could not be seen. 1t was in
an extremity of anger. Five feet
away, its head lowered nearly to the
grass, its bill extended, it's wings half
raised, and sharply elbowed, a chapar-
ral-cock hoped slowly up and down.
A battle to the death was on, and the
boys watched it st~rainingly, Harry
with never-failing interest, the broth

ers almost in terror. They had never
before seen the dreaded rattler.
Like a flash of light, the snake
launched itself forward, and its head
struck the sward a good seven feet
from the spot where it had been
coiled; but with equal rapidity the
cock had leaped a yard aside. No
human eye could follow this stroke
or it's avoidance. One instant the
reptile was punched, and the bird
nearly stationary. In half the next
instant the reptile was at full
length, and the bird out of danger.
1t is the weakness of the RATHER
that it must coil before it a resume
the attack. 1t endeavored immediate
ly TO %recoil, but was not fast enough.
With a lightning-like spring, the
paisano alighted squarely upon it's
neck, two inches below its head. The
sharp bill descended twice. Then it
hoped two yards away and uttered
a squawk of triumph. The RATHER
threw itself into a spiral and struck
blindly its full length. This it did 20
times, coiling and %springing with in
conceivable rapidity. Both eyes were
destroyed. Its thuds were audible
yards away. Always it Kissed
venomously. The increasing slowness
of its motions showed coming ex-
haustion. Then, after a spring, it lay
stretched for a second or two. In
that time the chaparral-cock, which
had not ceased to dance about and
call loudly, fastened once more upon
it's neck, and drove it's bill into the
brain. There was a culver of the
long body-no more.
"That was worth looking at, Ell Z"
asked Harry, stepping into the glade,
and turning over the snake with his
foot. The road-runner instantly van
ished.

blowpipe, but If not you al get il
made easily and at a small cost.
To make it, get a piece of glass tub
ing and heat it in the flame, then draw
out the heated part until you have a
tube as small as a pin. Break it off at
its smallest part and you have a pin
hole burner.
Get a piece of rubber piping, which
you must attach to an ordinary gas
jet, the other end to the thick end OF
the glass tube. When the gas is
forced through and lighted it win
burn in a long, thin flame.
If the room is quite free from
draughts and all present are silent,
the flame will be steady, but if q
watch is held near, it will wabble
and flare back and forth, keeping
exact time with the ticking of the
watch. If you will call out in q
loud voice it will leap to one side
as though you had frightened it, and
if you keep up a conversation in a
loud voice it will dance about as
though in excitement.
To make a gas jet speak, or to
cause it to transmit sounds like a
telephone, you must surround the
pinhole burned with a tin tube hav.
ing a small hole in one end, through
which the burner projects a little
way. The bottom of the tin tube
must be made to connect with "a
speaking tube, which may be in an
other room or on another floor. \
Speak into the tube, no matter
how far away from the gas burner,
and the sound has to escape through
the hole through which the burner
projects, and is, therefore, forced
against the base of the gas flame,
which is always more sensitive. The
fame will take up the wave sounds
and magnify them so that the words
can be heard all over a very large
room, and if you attach a phono-
graph trumpet to the burner the
sounds will be still more increased in
strength and loudness.
To prove that it is really the gas
that does the talking, turn off the
gas and instantly the sounds cease,
though the person at the other end
of the speaking tube continues his
conversation.
If you force the gas through a
square or wire mesh, very fine and
raised above the burner, by holding
a lighted match above the wire gouze
the gas will burn only above it, max.
ing a conical flame.
If you sing Or play, whistle or tall
on a level with the fame it will
dance in perfect time and you car
make it perform all sorts of antics
by changing from whistling to sing
ing, or from a funeral march to 9

OF Ralph NJ. EasIey, secretary of the
National Civic federation, to strike
headquarters and his conference with
President Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers is the only incident of any
Importance that has claimed the atten-
ton Of the labor leaders and others
since the strike was declared. As nei-
ther MI Easley nor Mr.. Mitchell would
say anything regarding their meeting
there was much speculation as to the
object Of the visit of the secretary of
the Civic federation. Mr.. Easlcy laugh
ed at the stir which his arrival caused
and said there was not the slightest
significance attached to his trip here.
He reiterated that he came here mere.
ly to look over the ground and to keep
himself Informed of the general situa.
ton. He denied that he brought plans
for settlement Of the strike or message
from Senator Hanna or any other
member of the Civic federation.

KILLED BY
WR0NGED GIRL

South birmingham, Mass, May
1S-Prompted by jealousy and des.
peration because she had been
wronged, Nina Danforth, a hunch-
back girl of % years, whose home
is in West Newton, at midnight last
night shot and killed Andrew J.
Emery on the doorstep of his house
here. She then coolly awaited the
arrival of officers, who had been
summoned by the wife Of her vic
tim. She declared then she had no
regrets.
From remarks she made to-day
it is believed that she and her victim
have been on terms of intimacy for
about year and half, and that
she did not discover that he was
married and the father of four chill
dren until recently. She became
insanely jealous Of his wife, it is
said, and when she fired four shots
at him last night, she also aimed
twice at Mrs. Emory.
She called at the house early in
the evening and asked to see Emery
but was told he was not at home,
and when she again called just be-
fore midnight, he came to the door
attired in his underclothes. With
out a word of warning she began
firing and three shots took effect.
Emery was about 80 years old and
a fireman on the Boston aud Albany
Railroad. His run used to be through
the Newtons, and it. was while on
this section OF the road he met Miss
Danforth and was often seen in her
company. Although % she dresses
and appears like agirl of 7 years, and
for nearly twenty years has been a
sufferer from spinal troubles. She
lived with her father and mother.
