DELEGATES TO CONVENTION
United Mine Workers Conference Be
 gun af Noon To-Day.

Shamokin, Pa. March 1S.-A special train from the upper anthracite coz. region to-day brought here majority of the delegates to the convention or the United Mine Workers of Dlstrlcts l, z and 3, which begins at nooh Many of the delegates from the lower section came i'll yesterday. NeifEer National President Mitchell nor Na- tional Secretary Wilson have as yet arrived, but it is expected that they will reach here during the afternoon. It is next to impossible to obtain clear idea of the intentions of the del egates. District No l, comprising the Lackawanna and Wyoming regions. where there Is said to be much dlssat- lisfaction, practically controls the sltu- alton and should the delegates from that region declare for q strike the re- maining districts would be conlpelsed to accept the inevitable.
 According to Secretary Hartleln of District No 9, the Shamokin district. there are IA, ,000 miners in the anthr;2- cite region and 9S per cent of these are members of the United Mine Workers of America.
 Although official statements concern
  ton are difficult to obtain it is esti- mated by some of the officials that recognition of the union will not hc the chief issue There are many grievances to be considered of lnore importance. it is said, than recoGni- tion of the union as a national body.
 To-day's session will be the only public meeting of the delegates. The important business will be transacted behind closed doors and the proe3 ings announced through the medium oI a press committee.
 Among the matters to be brought to the attention of the convention will be the reports of President Mitchell and his assistants in their efforts to settle existing differences Ntth the or orators, and the replies received wit all be read.
 It is stated that the combined treas uries of the three districts now contain $4OO000.
 Ralph M Easley of New York. sec- retary of the Civic Federation, ar rived here to-day. He said his visit had no connection with the miners convention. His object, .hs said, was to meet President Mitchell, who is a member of tue cunciliation committee of the Civic Federation. There are some matters before the committee, MT Easley sas--. that required attcn- ton, and he desired to see Mir Mitchell before the latter left for the west.

FROM ACROSS THE WAY.
Occupants of odd Fellows Block
 Watch Children's Antics.

The occupants Of the Odd Fellows building have some fun these days watching the small boys and girls who are sent to pr Maloney's office to be vaccinared. Usually crowd of them go together. They come from the city hall across the park and appear to be quite brave until they turn the corner of the Waterbury Savings bank building wherein the doctors office is situated. Then the courage of the leader fails. He wa vers at the door, invites some other boy to take the lead saying that he is in no hurry and his father told him it is always the place of big boys to let small boys go first This morning q crowd of them was standing at the en- trance willing that any of them should assume the leadership. There must have been a dozen of them and they were making no little noise when suddenly the doors were thrown open and the doctor appeared At sight or him the crowd ran and scattered The doctor stopped, called to one of them. a little girl, and both went upstairs. In a few minutes the little girl was on the street. looking very brave and telling all about how the vaccination was performed. The others plucked up courage and gradually they all went upstairs. The clamor they had made before the doctor appeared among them was nothing to that which followed when all had gathered again on the sidewalk after being vac cinated. Each claimed to have stood the operation best and that he did It to me harder than lie did to any of the others. They were all as brave , as could be and now that the opera tion was over and done. if was notf- ing at all to go through it and they could stand 1t as long as the doctor could and a great deal longer. An ticipation has more effect on the youngsters systems than the actual operation and even in this adults are no exception. The operation is over in a few minutes.

 General Ma attacked the rebel strongholds, but, after an engagement lasting two days. was forced to re- treat The rebels then established their headquarters at Fang -Chong.
 The rebellion Is spreading rapidly in the provinces of Kwang-Si, Kwang- Tung and Yun-Nan.
 A letter received here from Tien-Pai fifty miles from Kwang- Chou (Kwang- Hung. province), says all business is suspended there owing to fear of the rebels. Marshal Su is at Lien-Chou. hWang-Tung province. and General Men Ma is at Kao-Chou. also in Kwang Tung province. Both of these com manders are awaiting reinforcements. They wish to join their forces. but the rebels are holding all the intervening passes and prevent a junction of the government troops.
 Many of the imperial soldiers are Joining the rebels. owing to the su- perior pay offered them and the oppor- funity for footing.
 The rebel leader is Hung-Ming. a relative of the celebrated Hung Sou Chuen, leader of the Tai-Ping rebel lion.
