Scranton, Pa.-President John Mitch
ell, Of the United Mine Workers of
America. has won another victory for
peace. There will be no strike in the
anthracite region.
The miners in three separate district
groups reluctantly but unanimously
followed their leaders suggestion and
formally elected District Presidents
Nichols, Fahy and Dettrey as their
representatives on the Board of Con-
ciliation. Many favored a simple in
dorsement Of this trio's previous ap-
pointment by the Executive Board, but
Mitchell knew just what was wanted
to assure a more promising condition
of peace than any which the anthracite
region has known for years, and his
will prevailed.
There was no enthusiasm, no mani
festation of personal approval even
when the resolutions looking to IN cleo
tion and to peace were adopted. Voic-
ing the evident sentiment of many in
the convention. Delegate Gildea, how
ever, said, before the resolutions be-
came a fnality:
"Let us put in some proviso that IL
they don't recognize these men now we
will resume the conflict of last year."
"Such q proviso is not necessary
said President Mitchell, "as your repre-
sentatives, I can tell you, will be rec
ognized."
So the resolutions were adopted, and
the separate district elections were
held by the delegates, with the harmo-
NOUS results above stated.

During n Of his journeys a famous
traveller came to g. lonely cabin and
found the door wide open. In the CEN
tire of the floor stood a cradle, in which
was an infantfast asleep. The cradle
was rocking with surprising regularity,
but no sign Of what propelled it could
be seen. -
The travellers curiosity was aroused.
He went to the cradle and found a
stout cord attached to a nail driven in
the side of it. The cord passed through
an auger hole in the side of the house.
He took up the trail, which soon led
him into a ravine, where a donkey was
standing and switching his tail.
The mystery was explained. The
other end of the cord was tied to the
donkey's tail, and the constant switch
ing Of its caudal appendage furnished
motive power sufficient to rock the
cradle.-New York News.

Not to BE Caupht.

An amusing incident occurred on a
certain railway not long ago. "Pro-
fessor" .Debeyoise, a well-known ven
triloquist, was bidding adieu to some
friends, when one of them presented
him with a little fox terrier, to which
he had taken a great fancy.
The train began to move, and there
was no time to get a dog ticket; SO De-
beyoise popped the dog into a small
hamper whichswas labeled Professor
Debevoise, ventriloquist," in bold let
tiers.
When the conductor came through
the car the dog began barking, which
drew his attention to the hamper. He
looked at the hamper and then read
the label. Turning to Debevoise with
a knowing wink and a broad grin he
said:
All right, all right; / amt taking
any just now. I've been up against
that before"

The conduct Of the average ghost
would appear from these records to be
aught but sanity or digniied. One
haunting a hotel in Tyrol posters guests
by tugging at their bed clothes and
thrusting its hands beneath their bod
les. A university student, haunted by
an annoying spectre, says that it holds
out its hands as if begging for some
thing. Later it was seen and heard to
have a fight with another of its kind.
Dublin ghosts were discovered to visit
a billiard room belonging to a private
house and to enjoy a game therein,
frequently at night, when the room
would suddenly appear lighted. Though
heard through the only door Of the
apartment. the game suddenly ended,
ana darkness returned invariably when
this door was opened. The same bill
lard balls were frequently heard roll
ing and clicking in daylight while this
room, on the upper floor Of the build
ing, was fastened up. A ghost with the
power to multiply and appear in the
same place and al, the same time as
three complete c~ounterparts of its
form, as remembered in life, is indeed
a wonder. Yet a Liverpool man lately
behe1d three such distinct spooks Of
his lame uncle, hobbling one behind an
other. He mentioned the experience
to d brother and sister accompanying
him. When they arrived home they
learned that the same uncle had died
at the time of the phantom's appear
ance. Another spectre, haunting an
american lady and her daughter, an
noys them by. rafting their toilet arti-
cles and pulling at their dresses. An
other arouses its sleeping victims by
placing It's icy hand upon their faces.
The ghost of N mans s~ister-in-law
pushes him around, lifts his legs,
shakes his door and blows cold air on
him. The phantom of a friend visiting
a young lady. the day of his death
appeared to her first as a hand waving
backward and forward. Later, while
she was taking down her hair, it APP
peared to assist her. After she retired
it lay down beside her, kissed her and

A Curious Indian Custom.

A curious custom in India is that of
"Ruk-sut hal" (You may go). In Eng

caller to himself take the initiative in
the matter of his departure. Indeed, it
would be considered the height of ILL
breeding if the hostess gave the slight
est indication of any desire to be re-

How Ghosts Vanish.

The majority Of ghosts simply van.
ish, like breath into the wind. Others
nuke their exits through bolted doors,
slamming them loudly. Many of these
doors are seer. to open, but later prove
to be securely locked on the Inside.
Numerous spooks have a habit OF van
fishing as soon as spoken to.ss One
which haunts a lonely roadway fades
away in broad daylight and in the pres
ence Of several witnesses closing in
upon 1t from in front and behind. A
number Of ghosts make their retreat
through the floor. One phantom
walked up to q mans door and disap-
peared through it. Yet the door was
shut and locked. The man and his
wife, thinking the thing to be a visitor,
were following it close in the rear
Other spectres disappear through solid
walls. penetrating them as though they
were atmosphere. Others. pursued in
the open, retreat to fences or hedges
and there fade from view. The shade
of an old man, customarily seen in an
arm chair OF one haunted house, inva-
riably rises from his seat and vanishes

rednction to fifteen per cent III case OF
