THE STRIKE COMMISSION
Finishes inspection Of Mines-WilI
Meet Again, Nov. IA.

Mahanoy City, Pa, Nov. 6.-The an
thracite strike commission ended its
tour Of observation of the coal field in
the Panther Creek valley, Wednes-
day. They will meet again at
Scranton, Nov. II. to take the testi-
mony of the miners. The biggest day s
work of the entire "trip was ac-
complished, Wednesday, when the
commissioners made complete inspec-
ton of the large collieries and tour OF
the region lying between Mount Car
mel and this city. Six working days
have been consumed in travelling from
place to place in the anthracite coal
regions and the arbitrator feel they
are now qualified to sit in Judgment on
the controversy between the mine own
ers and their employees. In all, the
commissioners were lowered into seven
mines of varying conditions and went
through several breakers. They heard
the grievances the workers claim they
have and also heard the companies
side of the complaint. Besides this the
commissioners gained somewhat
technical knowledge of mining in its
many different features that will be of
The commissioners. Wednesday. first
visited the Potts colliery in Columbia
county. The breaker of this collery is
different from those seen by the COM
missiOners at ether places. From the
Potts cOlliery they proceeded to the
Maple Hill cOlliery in the Mahanoy
valley. This is one of the best mines in
the entire anthracite field ard is
equipped with all modern appliances.
The bottom of the shaft is $50 feet be-
low the surface and during their two
hours stay in the workings the COM
missioners went about mile and a
half from the shaft. From the Maple
Hill colliery the commissioners went to
the Lehigh's No. s colliery at Coaldale.
The mine proved to be quite wet. In
order to reach the place where the
miners We're at work the commission
ers had to climb a ladder and crawl
over broken coal through a small OPEN
ing. Their hands and aces We're smear
ed with coal dust when they came out.
After leaving the mine number of
idle workers crowded around Chairman
Gray and told him that they had been
Disseminated against by the company
in the matter of getting their old places
back. They said Supt. Behner would
not take them back for some reason
unknown to them and that other men
had been given their positions. On the
other hand the company officials claim
ed that they have not enough work at
this time for all the men, on account of
repair work now being done in the
mines. Judge Gray listened to them
but made no comment.

An UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE

Has it ever been your unhappy lot to
be told by your physician that you
must go to a hospital and submit to an
operation? If SO, you remember with
what dread and shrinking you awaited
the day when you must endure the
knife. The present day surgeon APP
pears to be possessed by a mania for
operating, especially in cases OF hem
orrhoids or piles, and while the greater
number of the profession do not rec
ommend this last resort unless they
honestly believe it necessary, the fact
remains that much needless operating
is done, and the patient put to much
expense and suffering for what? To
obtain a possible temporary relief;
these words are used advisedly, be-
cause in nine cases out of ten the
affiiction returns and the patient is just
where he started from. Oftentimes he
could be cured much more simply and
easily by the use of such a remedy as
the Pyramid Pile Cure; this has come
to be recognized as the best remedy
on the market for the painful disease
named, and the druggists now sell
more Of 1t than all other pile remedies
combined. The writer personally
knows people who were afflicted with
the worst form Of bleeding and pro-
truding piles and who were perma-
nentIy cured by the use of Pyramid
Pile Cure. In every one of these cases
the attending physician had assured
the sufferer that only by an operation
could he rid himself of the disease: SO
much for the infallibility of the doc
tors. This remedy, which Is sold by
all druggists at the low price OF fifty
cents, is in suppository form, Is app
piled directly to the parts affected. per-
forms its work quietly and painlessly.
The Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall.
Mich, will mail free to any address a
book telling all about piles or hem
orrhoids, their cause and cure.
A suggestion is offered that II the
reader is afflicted. or knows anyone
who is, this book be sent for. as it will
be found invaluable.
