The habit I most dislike is
a persons dragging out things
and not putting them back
where they find tlem. For in
stance, often a person takes
out towel, a dish, or anything
like that, and leaves it just
where he used it, throwing
things around on the floor and
not having the least care for
what he does, just waiting for
someone else to go and pick u
things after him. It is a very
bad habit for a girl especially,
for when she grows up, she
hardly ever grows out of such
habits. Agnes Nilsson,

What I most dislike in peo-
pie is haughtiness. Many peo-
pie, when one meets them on
the street, do not notice him
because he is not dressed in
fine clothes. Many people
think they are better If they
come from the city instead Of
the country. Some city people,
when they go to the country,

THE MINERs, TRounLEs

The situation in the dispute between
the anthracite miners and the opera
tors is at present grave, and promises
to result in tie-up that will last till
the resources of one side or the other
are exhausted. A strike would involve
something like 10000 men, and would
mean extended suffering, perhaps riot
ing. and high priced coal for every
body next winter. There are so many
interests involved that the strike,whlch
seems imminent, should be averted.
At the present it appears that the
miners and their representatives have
acted temperately and cautiously. They
have placed all authority in the hands
of an executive committee, and that
body has signifed its willingness to
submit the grievances to arbitration
and abide by the decision. 1t is a lit
tie surprising that the operators have
not met them half way, or at least
have not left some loop-hole for COM
promise.
The executive committee has not
acted on the authority 1t possessed, TO
declare a strike, but as precaution
has referred the matter back to the
miners. themselves. The result is in
doubt. but the only alternative left is
to back down. 1t seems improbable
that they will do this, and we imagine
that soon we shall see general tie-upI
inaugurated. Public sympathy and
support count for much in such dis
putos. and in this instance we imag-
inc they will generally be given the
miners.

Likely That City May Purchase It,.
Regarding Or. Draper's Bill
When the Emergency Hospital was
completed it was found necessary to
have a cab to carry the smallpox pa
tients from this city to Farnhurst DR..
James II. Morgan, of the Board Of
Health, purchased a secondhand one
from the Wilmington Transfer Com
pany for $40. When the bill was sent
to the new board OF trustees, they re-
fused to pay it. DIR. Morgan settled
with the Transfer Company and took
a receipt. He now proposes to charge
50 for every patient who was moved in
It. and as forty-one cases have had the
use of the cab. the bill will be $S2.
1t is possible that the city will pay
for the cab and allow it TO remain at
Farnhurst.
DR.. Morgan has presented a bill to
City Council for $446 for attending
smallpox cases. In his bill 81 each was
charged for inspecting seventeen peo-
ple in one house.
Dr. James A. Draper. Jr., was en-
gaged when the smallpox first appear
ed and his bin shows that he charged
only for the visit TO the house where
the smallpox existed and not according
to the number Of patients examined
In one house at Seventh and Monro'
streets there were five persons aflict

one visit in attending all of them. 81

and there is reason to hope that the

grave than it has been represented to
be, and, indeed, that the severity Of
the judgment of the court was due to
some misapprehension. If the officers
who engaged in a brawl in a public
place had reason to believe that there
was plot to subject them TO indigni-
ties and thereby provoke them
to violence ) which, would lead to
their arrest, some allowance should be
