 the Circular Letter. a.a

Indianapolis, January 23.-The United Mine Workers convention this morning took up the reading of partial report of the committee on resolutions. which was considered item by item.
 The resolutions were presented by the committee as 1t had received them, to- gether with it's recommendations The first was that the United Mine Workers journal be printed in the Slavonic, as well as in the English language The committee recommended against this and the convention supported the committed
 A second resolution was to the effect that two pages of the journal be printed in the Polish language. This led to a prolonged discussion. E4
 President. Mitchell explained that the experiment of printing two pages of the journal in the Slavonic language had been tried without good result, 1t costing the organization s104O year to employ a man to set those two pages when the foreign circulation was only 1000
 Resolutions Exoneratine Mitchell. The following resolutions were read from the committee to investigate the were adopted:
 ITO the officers and members of the thirteenth annual convention of the United Mine Workers of America: "Gentlemen-We, your committee, ap- pointed to investigate the charges and counter charges that have passed between Miss Mollie Meredith and officers of our organization, beg leave to make the fol- lowing report:

 Whereas One Miss Mollie Meredith has issued circular letters containing statements and making allegations derog- otary to the personal and official honor of the president, the secretary and other officers of the United Mine Workers of America; and

 Good audiences witnessed yesterday afternoon and yesternight a delightful pastoral play which had no city villain in it. It was a love story in a country shipyard at Sag Harbor on Long Island. A little girl Martha, left orphaned, Is adopted by William Turner. When she grows to beautiful womanhood she is loved by both the elder son, Ben, and by the handsome younger son, Frank In the end she marries Ben, and the trials that overtake her and the trials of the two brothers constitute the story of the beautiful play. There is so much in the play of true love and domestic life that all are charmed by it.
 The company is not a large one but it is a choice one throughout. Franklin Ritchie as the elder son Ben. and John Dean as the younger son kept nicely within their parts. while both were in tensely dramatic. George Woodward was an inimitable Capt. Dan Marble who owns a sloop, and scollops in her winters and sails company in her summers. He kept the audience in good humor, and what he did not do in that direction c. B. Craig did as Freeman Whitmarsh, who leads the choir. Martha, the heroine, the orphan girl, was played by Margaret Pitt, and she won all hearts. Mollie Revel as the sunny-hearted widow. Rillie Reaves as the maiden sister and Clair Kulp as the clever music teacher each pleased the audience. A prettier love story more cleverly presented, has not come before a Birmingham audience this season. It shows that play can be in teresting without a villain.

Mitchell Makes Speech.

After the report had been unanimously adopted there were loud cries for MT. Mitchell. The president stepped to the front of the platform and said. There is very little that my feelings will permit me to say. l thank you for this evidence of continued confidence fn me. I thank the committee for its ruling. A great wrong has been done MT. Wilson and my self. It has been repaired as far as you can repair it, but it has not been wholly repaired. I know men talk behind my back. For those who do this have nothing but the most supreme contempt thank you for the unanimous vote showing your confidence and trust"
 At the close of his speech the cheering was almost deafening and continued for a minute or two. Then there were calls for Secretary Wilson. He responded brief iy thanking the delegates for their ex- pression of confidence. There were re- newed cheers.
 Then the convention adjourned until afternoon.
 Want Journal In Polish.
 Speaking delegates, particularly those who represented miners of the Polish tongue, made a strong plea to have the Mine Workers Journal printed in the Polish language. but all resolutions ask ing for the printing of documents in any but the English language were voted down.
 The convention refused to concur in a resolution providing that all men doing guard duty, taking part in private army in the service of any coal corpo- ration should be eternally debarred from becoming members of the United Mine Workers organization.
 There was difference Of opinion as to whether this resolution would debar miltiamen from membership in the miners organization, but President Mitchell said it would not do so.
 The convention sat down hard on socialstic resolution to the effect that political party should be organized having for its purpose the welfare of the laborng people of the country in fighting for government ownership
 The election of officers will take place tomorrow morning.

Ethel Barrymore.

Ethel Barrymore, who comes to the Jefferson Theatre Tuesday, January 2S, can afford to be truthful about her age for good many years yet. She was born on the 18th of August, 1880. at the home of her grandmother, Mrs, John Drew, in Philadelphia. Mrs. Drew told her in after years she would never have forgiven her if she had been born any where else. Miss Barrymore had just turned twenty when she made her first great success as a star in Captain links" last season. Fame-honestly earned fame-don't come to many people just out of their teens.
 Miss Barrymore's engagement at the Jefferson Theatre will be for one night only. Sale of seats will commence tome row morning.

favor upon land settlers. The bill pro-
vldes that any entries or proofs in cases

Heretofore, these oathes could be made

There was well filled opera house
last Wednesday night to see the 1.-Two

entirely satisfied with the evenings en-

That was what the people went for and
they got it. The play never had much
plot, but the actors kept things moving
along and got into all sorts OF laughable
scrapes. Out side of the dancing and
singing, which were not much to brag
on, the rest OF the show was well pre-

"uncle Josh spruceby."

When person or II number OF persons
who try to do right, let their manners
be ever so ludicrous, their dialect ever
SO uncouth, in the end they will impress
the people or community in which they
live with the sincerity OF their motives.
In the end they will win out. Just the
simple, plain and unvarnished story OF
the struggle for success of such people
liz often pathetic as well us humorous
recital.
The above is probably an honest criti-
cism of "Uncle Josh Spruceby" for the
reason that the drama is a'true blending
of the funny and the serious, just as
represented by the lives of some persons.
The story is dramatic for the reason that
it Is filled with stage surprises, at the
same time it is a simple story because it
deals with only simple people. While
not claiming to be homespun story it
is ut the same time true to life. We'd
