For love and loss, for JOY and pain,
For happiness that crowns our dreams,
For hopes that pass nor come again.
For good that is and i'll that seems
For all we thank Thee. God of light,
Our sight is dim, our strength is small;
We thank Thee that Thou leadst Alright,
That, following Thee. We cannot fall.
If rough the way. Thy hand hath led;
If worn and weary, yet we stand
Protected. helped and comforted,
Kept in the hollow OF Thy hand.

and thought my new hat would be ruined
If 1t got wet, so dashed back and hung Ii
on the hat-rack again. Then remembered
again that it would get burned, so I just
stood there and wondered what to do next.
Meanwhile my wife and the boys had
put the fire out by carrying water from
the bathroom, and they all said harsh things
to me for not coming upstairs when they
called me.
"Oh, the absent-minded man leads hard
life, and no mistake. When l go TO town,
my wife generally gives me long list of
dry goods and groceries to get for her, and
at the end Of the list she always writes,

SPLENDID EMBARRASSMENT.

The Young Ladies' Club of the
Methodist church gave most success
full entertainment. last night. They
had pledged them selves co raise some
money to be contributed to the
church fund and now they are enabled
to hand over very neat sum. To
try to give praise to any one feature
of the entertainment would be unjust
as there was a uniform excellence
from the beginning to the end. Every
number gave evidence of careful train
ing and thorough conception of
what was needed to get most out of it.
To Mrs A. N Anderson particularly
and every individual young lady of
the club may be ascribed the unquali-
fed success of the entertainment.
Mrs. Anderson was the founder of
the club and is now it's leader. That
satisfaction which comes from watch
ing an enterprise from it's conception
to its successful realization belongs
to these ladies.
Every one of the three hundred and
fifty or more people who attended the
methodist church last nighc is enthus-
iastic in praise of the pleasure provid-
ed.

Protest From Utah
Against Smoot.

Washington, Feb. S.-Senator Bur-
rows. chairman of the privileges and
elections committee. this evening re-
ceived protest from the citizens of
Utah against seating Senator elect
Smoot. Senator Burrows has not de-
cided when he will present the protest
in the senate. 1t is possible that he
may defer filing it until after the Gre
dentials of Smoot are presented. but
of the committee the protest may be
presented prior to the receipt of the
credentials.
Senator Burrows SAYS the regular
procedure after protest is presented
will be its reference to the committee.
to which the credentials of Smoot
and other protests. if any are received
will also be referred. The nature of
the charges or allegations set forth in
the protetss will determine the future
action of the committee. If the
charges are of serious nature hear
ings may be ordered to determine the
truth of the same. If not the COM
mittee may pass upon them without
further testimony than shown on the
face of the protests.
S anator Burrow, received tele.
graphic notice two weeks ago from
the ministerial association that pro
test would be sent by it against Smoot
and that representative of the $50
citation would come to Washington
and appear before the committee
against Smoot. but up to the present
time this promised protest has not ar e.
rived
Although it is impossi BILE here to
ascertain either who signed the pro-
test or what is the rea asoning and ar
gument followed in it, an intimation
was given last evening that the
grounds of the protest are two i'll
number:
First-That Mr.. Smoot. as an
apostle of the Mormon church. is tied
up with body of high churchmen
who have willfully and persistently
violated the constitution by interfer-
ence in the political affairs of the
state of Utah.
Second-That he. in common with
his fellow apostles and other high
church officers, has encouraged and
honored men living in polygamy
That this course has been pursued
and these honors conferred, though III
direct violation of the solemn pledges
ON which statehood was obtained.
These two arguments are, it is be
lieved. substantially the basis of the
attack ON Smoot's seat Each line of
argument is supported by volnminous
evidence and the citation of many in
stances of what is charged There is
nothing personal in the protest. moth
in relating to Mr.. Smoot's private
life.
The protest has about twenty sigma
lures. The protest of the ministerial
association. to which reference is
made. it is understood. will be filed
later. simply as an endorsement of the
citizens protest.

DISLOCATED HER SHOULDER

Mrs Johanna Soderholm, of Fergls Falls. Minn, fell and dislocated her shoulder. She had a surgeon get it back in place as soon as possible, but it was quite sore and pained her very much. Her son mentioned that he had seen Chamberlains Pain Balm ad- vertised for sprains and soreness, and she asked him to buy her bottle of it, which he did. It quickly relieved her and enabled her to sleep. which she had not done for several days. The son was so much pleased with the relief 1t gave his mother that he has since recommended it to many others For sale by all druggists.

 Public sympathy is a great factor in the winning of strikes.
 The gentlemanly conduct of the strik- CTS has won many words of praise on every hand.
 What stronger argument could be put forth for municipal ownership than the present strike?
 As everyone appears more than anx- 1ous to do something for the strikers, why not give them a rousing benefit?
 Statements made by the officers of the Trolleymen's union have thus far been found to be truthful in every case.
 Nothing to arbitrate'' is an old cry, but the public is beginning to realize that it's true meaning is to keep every thing from the public.
 Several dealers are refusing to sell goods to parties who ride on the cars, treating them in the same manner as they do the imported strike breakers
 The names of the people who patron ize the trolley during the strike will make interesting topics for discussion when read at union meetings hereafter
 There is no great loss without some gain. The strike is showing to organ ized labor who their friends are, both among the business men and else where. ..:
 The Typographical union will meet in the rear room of Buffers 'and Pol ishers' hall this afternoon at 5:30, for the purpose of taking further action to assist the trolleymen.
 If anyone wishes to see the differ ence between union and non-union labor let them compare the men now on strike with the gang of strike breakers landed here on Thursday by Manager. Sewell.
 Had it been a union man instead of one of the strike breakers who flourish ed a revolver it is probable that arrests would have followed and perhaps in- functions would have been flying around ere this.
 "On strike. Friends use no violence. 5 read the badges of the members of the Trolleymen's union. This speaks strongly as regards the character of the men formerly employed by the Con- necucut Railway and Lighting Go.
 Friends of the strikers should bear in mind that any acts of violence to- ward the non-union employees or against the property of the company will only tend to injure those whom they would assist. Let peaceable measures pre- Wall and success is assured.
 Secretaries of unions voting assess ments for the benefit of the strikers are requested to notify the strike commit. tee the number of members in their or gan1zation and the amount of the week. iy assessment. This information is necessary to facilitate the work of the committee.

INFLUENCE IS BAD.
Mine Officials Blame Union
 Before Strike Court.
SCRANTON COMPANY OPENS CASE.
Men Compelled to Load Equal Num- ber of CaraA Thus Restricting the OutpUt-Petty Strikes
 WeEsn Freoueut

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. r. - More mine officials were called to the wit ness stand yesterday and informed the coal strike commissioners that under the influence of the union the mine workers restricted the production of anthracite coal and otherwise inter- fered with the discipline of the em- ployees.
 The Erie company, which controls the Pennsylvania Coal company and the. Hillside Coal and Iron company, closed its case early in the day after calling physician who testified to the good health of the mine workers.
 The Scranton Coal company, which operates besides it's own the collieries of the Elk Hill Coal and Iron company, then took up the attack on the demands of the miners. The Scranton and the Elk Hill companies turn their coal over to the New York, Ontario and Western railroad, which virtually controls them. The witnesses called testified generally that no blacklist exists. that the con- tract miners work on an average of from six to seven hours day, that the local unions compel the men to load an equal number of cars, thus restricting the output; that the men are careless in obeying orders and that frequent petty strikes occur because union man is dismissed for insubordination. One in side foreman in his testimony said the employment of check weighman, in sisted upon by the union, has proved to be good thing for the company be, cause the miners sent to the surface cleaner coal-that is, coal with very little impurities in it.
 The accountant for the Sc. anton Coal company presented figures which show. ed that since check docking boss was employed by the company at the re quest of the miners the dockage against the men has been reduced about one. half. The miners pay the wages of the check weighman and the check dock. ing boss.

of the strilSe-breakers, and after the home men are once more back at work and the hatchet buried, framed copies and the hatchet buried, we could make comparisons. E,..
 A local newspaper in submitting a list of names of men suitable to act as arbitrators in the present trouble failed to mention a single representa- tive of organized labor, though the capitalistic class was not unrepresent- ed. A majority of the names present ed, however, are those of men who should prove acceptable to either par ty.
 The officers of the Connecticut Rail- way and Lighting Go. have assumed precisely the same attitude as did the coal barons. Committees who might have strengthened matters out before the strike were refused audience and all overtures toward arbitration have been turned down. This of itself should suffice to snow to the public which side is n the right.

CAUGHT IN COON TRAP.
Kentucky Trapper Saved His Life by Cutting Off His Finger with a
 Barlow Knife.

Silas Remey, who lives on Chapline river in Mercer county, is a famous trapper, says the Louisville Evening Post. Monday Silas and his little son spent all the afternoon setting traps along the river cliffs and set their last one just at nightf all.
 This was one of Silas' own invention and most effective in catching coons. On the river bank was a log that every coon that passed would visit and here Silas set his trap. 7:
 So when Silas had set his trap, as it was now almost dark, he thrust in his

finger to feel the points. They seemed to be set about right - in fact, were set so nicely that when he tried to withdraw his finger he was in MT. 'Coon's plight exactly. One of the barbs entered his finger and almost before he knew it all had him tight. The more he struggled the deeper his barbs sung into his flesh. This was anything but a laughing matter to Si- las. His old knife was too dull to make any headway in cutting the nails, so after thinking the matter over he started his little boy home with light ed lantern to get the pincers to pull out the nails. The boy made his way up the cliff, lost his way, fell over the rocks and logs and extinguished the lantern. Unable to get his bearing, the lad slept under ledge of rock and came ar freezing. Meanwhile Silas sat astride the log in a pouring rain and thought Sunday school words. But real danger began to threaten him. The river began rising rapid1y. It crept up until it reached the lowe. end of the log.
 As daylight approached it began to rock slightly and Silas knew an end was floating. Higher and higher rose the water and Silas knew that if he washed into the current with the log death was certain. In his desperation he pulled his dull barlow and literally sawed his finger off above the middle joint and the log doated away. In five minutes afterward another trap per came along and found him. He was so chilled that he was unable to walk home alone.

This country is not the only one where unconsidered trifies are snapped up by the manufacturers and put to practical use. In China the down of the thistle is gathered and mixed with raw silk so ingeniously that even ex- perts are deceived when the fabric is woven.
