Their Annual Convention Opened
Ban on Tobacco Smoking


DENVER, Col, June 26.-The tenth in
ternatonal Sunday-school convention
opened it's first session here tonight The
Auditorium was decorated with American
and British flags. The greater part of the
time was devoted to welcoming speeches
and responses. A. B. McCrillis. of Provi-
dence. r. l., presided in place of Presi-
dent Hoke Smith, of Atlanta, who was de-
tanned at home by illness. S. II. Atwater,
president of the Colorado State Sunday
School Association, and others, welcomed
the delegates. Response was made by Vice
President McCrillis.
After the announcement of the nominat-
ing committee. F. F. Belsey, chairman of
the Sunday-School Union of London, was
introduced. AS he stepped upon the plat
form the audience rose and sang God
Save the King, following it with Amer
lea" The compliment was acknowledged
by Mr.. Belsey, who extended the greeting
of his countrymen to the convention.
committee was named to frame a cable
gram of sympathy to King Edward to be
sent tomorrow. The session closed with
an address by DR.. John Potts, of Toronto
chairman of the lesson committee.
simultaneously with the meeting in
Trinity Church, another was held at Central
Presbyterian Church. Addresses were made
by DR.. A. T.. Schauffle, of New York Dr.
Frank Johnson, editor of the Chronicle of
London, and DR.. A. E. Dunning, secretary
of the lesson committee.
The smoking of cigars, cigarettes or
pipes by delegates was put under the ban

and grave operation that he could scarcely
Withstand it, IL would involve an imme-
date risk of 40 10 43 per cent. The assump-
ton that the abscess is of appendical origin
Is the most logical from his symptoms OF
pain and syncOpe on the fifth or sixth day
preceding the operation. There was every
reason for his physicians Withholding from
the public as long as possible.
IF the diagnosis of appendicitis would
have been made earlier il is probable the
operation would have been held earlier, as
II is the consensus Of the American medical
and surgical profession that the immediate
operation, /. e., the operation within the
first twenty-four hours after the inset of
symptoms, gives the best results and sub
Jects the patient to the least risk. There
is a unanimity of opinion in the profession
that no one, no matter how familiar with
the disease. is able to predict from the
early symptoms what will be the subse-
quent course OF the disease. II is, there
fore, incumbent on the profession to OPP
crate early TO avoid the probability of later
and more dangerous pathologic conditions.
Medical treatment is uncertain, inefficient
and arduous and thousands of lives have
been sacrificed by this method Of treat
ment. In Chicago alone, in the last three
years, there have been 752 deaths from ap-
pendicitis. What a colossal crime! What
indulgent and forbearing public to toll
crate such results from the medical pro-
LESSONS. On this basis there should be no
perityphlitis of appendical origin. as all
would be operated before that stage"

WORRIES OF AUTOMOBILIsTs.
Carl Fisher Forced to Don Overalls-
Collision with Telegraph Pole.

Indianapolis Automobiles who sought
the scenes Of wreck and ruin in Hancock
county, Wednesday. not only tested their
machines, but everything else. Mayor
Bookwalter and George w. Pangborn, with
whom the mayor rode, reached the city
without accident and got nothing worse
than a drenching. Carl Fisher, who pumped
along the roads with a gasoline machine,
met his finish on his return trip from
Greenfield. Between Philadelphia and
Cumberland the terrific rainfall that came
tected and a great distance from shelter.
He was doing his best to reach Cumber-
land when the storm burst. He reached
Cumberland all right, but leaped on dry
SroInd like a shipwrecked mariner for he
was soaked TO the skin. Fisher started in
ahead of Mayor Bookwalter. When Pang-
born and Bookwalter reached Cumberland
they were intercepted by a man who wore
a blue bingham roundabout and Overalls
The man waved his arms wildly and they
stopped. Both burst out laughing when
they found ii was Fisher. He explained
that his auto was all right, but that he
had been almost drowned in the rain and
was forced to purchase the roundabout and
overalls to protect him while his other
clothing dried.
DIR. Jones and f. S. r. Seguin visited
most of the scenes of the storm covering
nearly seventy miles in all They got wet
and met with an accident. In trying to
pass a vehicle the woman who was driving
turned the horse in their way. To avoid a
collision which might have seriously in
jured the woman and a child with her, Dr.
Jones turned his machine into a ditch and
it hit a telegraph pole. 1t was not crippled
but a horse was required to pull it back TO
the road.

LONDON, June 26.-The British Medical
Journal says: Should the Kings symp-
toms pursue the course they have hitherto
followed there is good reason to hope for
his Majesty's restoration to health Owing
TO the nature of the affection and the char
acter OF the dressings used it is inevitable
that his convalescence should be somewhat
prolonged, but we believe. If no complica-
lions arise, that there is no reason to fear
his recovery will not be complete. The
condition OF the parts made clear at the
operation was such as to assure the sur
geons that the abscess was due TO one of
those unexplained inhammations which
occur with remarkable frequency in the
neighborhood of the vermform appendix,
and that II was not due TO any organic dis
ease or any malignant growth. Up to the
present there is no indication of the occur
renee OF any complication. and should none
arise his Majesty may live for many
years"
The Lancet. while declaring that IL is i'm
possible TO disguise the seriousness of the
Kings condition, says: 1T is our Joyful
privilege 10 be able TO contradict fatty
some OF the sinister rumors which have
hours throughout the world The idea
that some dreadful news is being kept
back ought to be dispelled and the absolute
sincerity OF every bulletin issued should
prevent the public from needing these wild
rumors. His Majesty is suffering from
perityphlitis and nothing else. Unfor-
tunately the symptoms of perityphlitls
may be entirely masked. and IL was that
that absolutely prevented the necessity of
an operation from being apparent until
was no symptom of malignancy in the
Kings case.

RECIPROCITY WITH CUBA
TREATY FOR THAT PURPOSE NOW IN
COURSE OF PREPARATION.
Minister Quesada Confident 1t VIII Be
Accepted If Sent to the Senate
and Ratified.

WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator Que
sada, the Cuban minister, and acting Sec
rotary Hill were engaged to-day in going
over the basis of a reciprocity treaty be-
tween the United States and Cuba. The
matter has progressed TO the point where
it has been possible TO draft the conven-
ton, and it would be easy to complete it
and reduce IT TO the final form in which 1t
would go to the Senate in a very short
time This is accounted for by the fact
that no substantial points Of difference be-.
tween the negotiators have developed. 1t
is understood the War Department was
consulted in the early stages of the matter.
These negotiations do not signify that ii
is the intention to submit reciprocity
treaty to the Senate at the present session,
though the Cuban minister has professed
his willingness and ability, if the thing
were desired, to secure promptly from his
government the exceptional and extraordi-
nary powers that would be needed to en-
able him to conclude the treaty, and the adj
ministration regards il as a wise precau-
ton to have a treaty all prepared and
ready for immediate ratification. The State
Department is carefully protecting the de-
tails of the schedules so far embodied
in the treaty, but il is believed they are
similar TO the items set out in the pending
Cuban reciprocity bill.

MINERS SEEKING WORK
ANTHRACITE DIGGERs SAID TO BE
TIRED OF IDLENESS.
Interview with n superintendent who
Has Had Many Applications
from Uuionists.

WILKESBARRE. Pa, June 26.-The Of
ficials of the several large mine companies
in this region are authority for the state
ment that men are applying to them daily
for employment of any kind. Among the
applicants are nearly all classes of work
ers, including miners. and it is said that
nearly all the companies have more men
to draw on than they need during the prog
ress of the strike. The majority Of the
companies that are compelled to pump
water from their mines are working their
engines and other machinery full handed.
according to statements made by the SUI
perintendents.
In speaking of the conditions about the
mines to-day, one superintendent said:
Most of the men applying to us for work
are members of the union. They come TO
our offices daily and beg for something to
do, saying they are tired Of idleness. We
hear from these men that some of the
strikers are practically out of funds, and,
rather than ask relief. they would prefer
to return to work but hesitate to do so
for fear they or their families will be
harmed. Our engines and pumps are run
ming as satisfactorily as can be expected
under the circumstances, and l think the
same is true of other companies.
Inc Mlchlgan delegation or miners ana
operators concluded their conference with
Mr.. Mitchell to-day, without coming to an
agreement, and left for the West
District President Williams, of Michigan.
said to-day he is inclined to think the spe-
cial national convention at Indianapolis
next month will not take a radical step.
He says that Michigan will do whatever
President Mitchell thinks is best for the
organization and he felt sure the other
States would do the same thing. AS far as
ne knows all the soft coal miners want TO
give the anthracite workers all the help
they can. If the majority of the conven-
ton delegates shall be Of the belief that
the life of the organization is in danger
then he would not be surprised if a general
strike would be ordered. The fact that
Michigan is one of the five districts to pc
tition for national convention does not
bind that State TO any policy. Michigan, he
said, is free TO do what she pleases, but
without doubt will do President Mitchell
advises.
President Haskins, Vice President Sulli-
van and Secretary Savage, of the Ohio
miners, who came East for conference
with their chief, spent the day in Scranton
and returned here tonight. 1t is said the
Ohio miners would rather pay a heavy
strike tax than stop work. Neither Mr..
Haskins nor his colleagues will discuss the
matter.

This is especially true of the Wagner plant
at ingalls,. Only the east wall remains
standing and it is possible it will not be re-
built. 1t is told of two boys who during the
storm attempted to escape from this fac
tory that they climbed partly over the
barb-wire fence which surrounded the
plant, but so great was the force of the
wind that they were caught and held Sc

DUBLIN, Ind, June 26.-Later reports
from the storm yesterday in this part of
Wayne county show 1t to have been as fully

is the greatest loss. In many places south
of here the cornfields are ruined. The stalks
are beaten into the ground and the few
that remain standing appear as though
the stalk had been cOmbed with a rake.
Young orchards are ruined. They are liter
