 Tennessee Company Men at Gamble.
 MT. F'airley made a statement telling of Investigating the trouble between the company and the men at Searles. He also referred to differences between the men and the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company at Gamble.
 Delegate Broom of Gamble claimed to have seen a contract entered into be- tween MT.

Farley, who said he would give Delegate Broom $100 if he would pro- duce any such contract before the conven- ton with his name attached to it.

I do not mean to- and shall not cast any reflection upon any delegate or member of the organiza- ton.
 T tell you again, there were only three submissions to the arbitration board. They were an eight hour day, a sem-monthly pay day, and a five-cent increase per ton on the minimum and maximum. I regret the working on a flat basis will have to work at last years wages, probably

 Pollock Stephens Institute.

 He held that of all the characters DOT trayed in the Merchant of Yenice Shy lock is the most honest and the most sin cere; that his faults are simply the out come of his environment; bitterly wound ed in all he holds most sacred and most dear through the Christians who despise him. because he is a Jew, what is there left for him but revenge?
 Antonio, of whom his friends speak so lovingly and admirnglY spit on Shylock in the market place, spurned him with his foot and called him dog, and why? Not from any fault in him, but because he was Jew These Christians bid Shy lock to a feast; why2 That they may rob him of his daughter, his jewels and his money Shylock acts under these cir cumstances as any human being would have acted
 MT. Young's manner as a lecturer is most sympathetic and charming. After the lecture by request MT Young gave the 'closet scene from Hamlet His management of the scene in monologue was wonderful
