MINE STRIKE SITUATION.
Federation Confers With Presi-
dent Mitchell.


Federation COnfers With Presi-
dent Mitchcu.
Hazleton. Pa. May 1.-THE arrival
here tonight OF Ralph NJ. EasIey, sec
rotary of the National Civic Fedora
ton, lends color to the reports which
have been current for the past few
days that the Civic Federation is maxi
ing an effort to terminate the anthra-
cite coal miners strike. Mr.. Easley
met President Mitchell of the United
Mine Workers. with whom he imme-
diately went into conference behind
closed doors. The conference lasted
until II o'clock. Mr.. Easley said Mr..
Mitchell had no plans to submit to the
Federation and that he carried no mes
sage back to Senator Hanna or any
other member of the Civic Federation.
President Mitchell's time to-day was
principally taken up by a conference
with the Illinois soft coal operators
over a few disputed points in the
Springfield, Ill, bituminous district.
The matter was finally disposed of, an
agreement being reached which was
satisfactory to both sides.
Nothing official was given out to-day
regarding the calling out of the BIZ
luminous miners. 1t is understood,
however. that the district presidents of
three anthracite districts are in COM
munication with the presidents of the
bituminous districts for the pur-
pose of getting two of
them to make up five neces-
sary to call special
national convention to consider the adj
Visibility of calling out the soft coal
miners. This is believed to be a mere
formality, as 1t is thought the West
Virginia and Michigan districts will
agree to the assembling of such a con-
Vention.
Reports received at strike headquar-
tiers to-day were to the effect that the
strike was being carried out to the let
ter.

observant citizen, IS that which grows

creatures of lower order have taken

able degree Of members of the human

beggar's dog because II is a familiar
example. The heggar's dog never looks
cheerful, never smiles, never frolics,
but simply sits by his master and
broods and begs for whatever charity
may give.
II have seen the dog character mold
ed under happier influences, and the
dog became more cheerful. He was a

OF the SUMMER side Of things, ! am al

what manner Of man the owner Is
with particular reference to tempera-

man, he man who grovels mentally
along the gloomier groves, the pessi-
mistic man who is always looking at

who come within these unhappy classi,
fications rarely own cheerful dog.
