the spirit moved them. This is wo-
mans way-the eternal feminine way
and it is useless for a man, to sug-
gest that it could be improved.
On Tuesday. according to the dis
patches, the delegates to the Virginia
Convention of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union met in Richmond
and proceeded to transact business.
The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union is composed of earnest work.
ers in a good cause. But even the
feminine reformer engaged in noble
work is as human as the rest of her
sex. 1t is stated in the dispatches
that the Virginia convention, which
held its sessions in a church, was not
harmonious as regards the election
of officers. One faction favored the
reelection of the present president of
the State union. The other faction
supported another candidate for the
honor The result, if reports be true,
was sharp contest which led to an
exciting war of words. Finally, when
the disorder had reached it's height
and the ladies. ignoring parliamentary
rules, were all speaking at the same
time, the pastor of the church appear
ed on the scene and restored order
| by threatening to clear the building of
the excited disputants. If the accounts
are not exaggerated, the excellent re-
| formers of the gentler sex were be-
having just like convention of un-
ruly men who had got beyond the con-
| troll of the presiding officer.
The pastor who dared to rebuke the
Virginia ladies and insist upon the
restoration of order was very brave
man and deserves to be commended
for his intrepidity. Ordinarily down
trodden man has not the courage to
protest against the garrulity of wo-
man. He submits rather than stir UP
a tempest This Virginia pastor seems
to be made of sterner stuff than the
average lord of creation. The man,
be he cleric or layman, who has nerve
| enough to muzzle a convention of ex-
Ecitable ladies' was born to command.
His domestic happiness is not marred
| by curtain lectures after the manner
of Mrs. Caud1e. Peace and quiet
reigns in his household.
What is the secret of his power
Thousands of down-trodden men
would give their fortunes to know
All honor to this masterful pastor, who
brought a woman's convention into
immediate subjection, It is pity that
the dispatches do not give his exact
words in chiding the excited delegates
into silence and decorum, Possibly hi
told them that temperance in speech
} is a virtue as well as temperance ir
drink. He would have made a palpa
BILE hit if he did, and as he is evidently
fearless man he probably made /;
suggestion to this effect. That sor
of observation would silence an,
thoughtful woman who had been be
trayed temporarily into an excess o
, garrulity.

EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT

though Democrat was made a circuit
judge by Mckinley. Bishop Spalding
of Peoria is man of high character
and great attainments. These are the
most important members of the COM
mission, but the others are also en-
tirely worthy of the position assigned
to them.
The really important feature of the
situation is the establishment of the
principle of arbitration. The Presi-
dent of the United States was forced
to act by public opinion and he forced
both the miners and the operators to
submit to arbitration. II the work of
the commission is successful, there is
every reason to believe that arbitra-
ton in all labor disputes in future
will become the rule. Let us hope so,
anyway.

A HEROIC MAN.

When the members of the fair sex
assemble in convention no reasonable
man expects tAen4 to submit meekly
to those despotic rules which are ne
cessary to preserve order and facili-
tate business in a gathering Of the
lords of creation. Women are more
loquacious than men, more efferves-
cent. more emotional. That is one of
the distinctive charms of the sex, al
though some cynics account it an in
firmity as we'll. Be that as it may,
however, it is very plain that when
the fair sex holds a convention it will
run it exclusively on the feminine
plan. Not even Thomas B. Reed, the
former Car Of the House of Repre-
sentatives, nor Tucson's old Alcalde,
who can wither the obstreperous Rus
sci with his glittering eye, could keep
woman's convention in order, or pre-
vent delegates from talking whenever

HANGED and Buried and Lived


1t Is not given to many men to be
hanged and buried and yet be able to
tell the tale, but such was the expert
ence of one John Rartendale. who was
executed at York in 1884 for felony
After his body had hung for nearly
an hour it was buried. A gentleman
passing by the grave. which had not
been filled Up. thought he saw the
earth move. and with the help of his
servant he disinterred the convict, who
was still alive
1t was the custom in those days to
bury suicides and executed criminals
without any coffin. The man was care
fully treated and entirely recovered.
He became bostler at the coaching
house In York and lived most ex-
emplary life. When asked what he
could tell In relation to hanging. as
having experienced 1t. he replied. THAT
when I was turned off flashes OF nre
seemed to dart from my eyes, from
which fell into % state Of darkness
and inseusibility."

Hon. William e. Smythe the Demo-,
cratic candidate for Congress for the
Eight California district will, if elect
ed, be powerful champion in the leg
islative halls, as he has for the past
ten or twelve years been in print and
on the forum of the irrigation inter-
ests of the arid States and Territories.
He established the Irrigation Age in
1889 and became the leader in the
movement for government aid in re-
claiming the arid regions of the west.
AS a result of the agitations in his
magazine the Irrigation Congress was
organized in 1891 by the governors Of
the arid States and Territories appoint
ing delegates to a meeting in Salt
Lake, Utah. Since that time he has
been the recognized leader i'm the
movement; was chairman of the Ma
tional Executive Committee of the Ir-
rigation Congress, and has labored
with unceasing effort both through his
paper and on the platform.

least 100000 suns, each as large as

mind to revert to the contempla ton of
these misty and indistinct astronomical
subjects to measure their magnitude

BRAIN WORK.
It's Effect Upon t1se Body and the
Kind of Food It Demands.

M Sh RUO0 "a A&haa&M&SS
The changes of tissue in the brain
that take place during study. and
thought are very important and very
rapid 1t has been estimated that three
hours of brain work cause as great an
exhaustion of the forces of the body as
an entire day of manual labor.
This waste must be replaced by
abundant food. but its selection re-
Ouires careful consideration and often
self denial, for many things which the
physical worker can eat with perfect
impunity are slow poison to the brain
worker, who exercises the brain at
the expense. of the body and rarely
gives the latter sufficient exercise to
counteract the mental strain and keep
it in condition to resist disease. Bear
in mind that, while the waste Of the
body is much more rapid, the depriva-
ton of physical exercise encoura gcs
torpidity of the voluntary functions
and renders them sluggish in eliminat-
ing these wastes; therefore it is of the
utmost Importance that the tasks i'm
posed upon them should be light.
Brain workers require the most con.
centrated and easily digested foods.
They should eat fresh beef and NUT
ton, fish, eggs-cooked in many forms.
but never hard boiled or fried-oysters
and crisp salads, lettuce chicory, toma-
toes, watercress, ETC., with mayonnaise
or French dressing. They should begin
the day with fruit and make it form
the principal part of luncheon and be
very sparing in their use of cereals,
eschewing entirely white bread and
oatmeal. Their ideal luncheon. which
must be light If they continue to work
in the afternoon, is a glass of milk OF
cup of hot chocolate or. better still, a
glass of fresh buttermilk, with two or
three graham waters or bit of toast
and some fruit, an apple, figs or an or
ange.

BUFFALO AND GRTTLE.

Within the memory of many of the
old-timers vast herds of buffalo ranged
over the plains from Texas to Canada.
Now the total number of buffaloes
or bison in the United States is 1,143,
OF which 72 are running wild in Colo
RADIO and the Yellowstone park. Can
ada has 500, Of which sec are running
wild, and in the countries outside
North America there are 12S in cap
tivity. In the United States the do
mesticated buffalo is en- the increase
But for the interest taken in behalf of
the buffalo before they were quite
wiped out there would not now be one
left. Except for the matter of senti-
ment in preserving so noble an animal
from being extinct no one should
grieve, as it's place is. many times
filled by domesticated cattle.

THE STRIKE SETTLEMENT.

The coal strike seems to be at the
end. The issues involved go to arbi
tration for settlement. Public senti-
ment forced arbitration The Presi-
dent of the United States was compel
led to act. He was half hearted in his
effort at the start, but the cry of the
people forced his activity.
It is noteworthy that the confer
ences that eventually found a means
of bringing the coal barons to reason,
were not held in Wall Street, nor
were they inspired by the plutocrats,
and it is particularly noteworthy that
the methods that were finally found to
make an adjustment were entirely be-
yond the original Roosevelt idea. Let
us not forget Roosevelts pitiful ex-
PLANTATION to the coal barons when he
called the first conference:
''T DISCLAIM ANY RIGHT OR
DUTY TO INTERVENE IN THIS
WAY UPON LEGAL GROUNDS OR
UPON ANY OFFICIAL RELATION
THAT BEAR TO THE sITUA-
TION."
Since then many independent con-
ferences were held that pointed the
way. The general trend was that the
President of the United States and
the Governor of Pennsylvania had
some rights and duties to perform
and resolutions were adopted urging
the President to institute civil p1o~
ceedings looking to the enforcement
OF the interstate commerce act against
the coal companies and criminal pro-
ceedings against their officers; petit
tfoning the Governor of Pennsylvania
to call a special session of the legisA
lature of that State to condemn all
the coal-earrying railroads and suf-
ticient of the mines to supply the de-
mands of the people, and Furthermore
the President was aked to call spe-
cial session of Congress and to recon-
mend the appointment of committee
with full power to investigate the
cause of the strike and to place the
blame therefor.
1t was this outside opinion that
forced Mr.. Roosevelt to act, and he in
turn made the coal barons come to
time
It is but just to say that the COM
mission named by the President to
act as an arbitration board is unusual
,ly strong and respectable. General
Wilson is man of very high charac-
ter and fine ability Judge Grey has
the confidence OF the American people
and deserves 1t. He was for twelve
years b Senator Of the United States
from Delaware, he was a member OF
