MUSIC AND DRAMA.
At the Crawford.

The LAND - COI1 ON-
The Crawford was filed last night with
those who wished to see the Land O Cot
ton. The play is one of southern life and
contains several fairly good climaxes.
Mr.. Wallace. Sr., as Col Hopkins was
mediocre and did not improve the impress
sion he made On the audience by his cur
tain talk after the first act. Miss Lucille
Whitcliffe as Peaceful Prue," acts the
hoydenish southern girl yer ywell indeed
and Edward Riley as the doctor was quite
clever in comedy part. Little Margaret
Ryan as Sissy is the best member Of the
cast. and the scene in which she and I'm
Gle Joe bury the child pet kitten is the
best thing in the show and brought tears
to the eyes of many. Frank Wallace, Jr.,
as Uncle Joe does good work and made
quite a hit with his rag song. The Land
o. Cotton quartette is one of the good
features Of the show and were repeatedly
recalled. The company carry all their
own scenery and the gin house with the
cotton gin was especially good. The plot
of the story is similar TO many of this
class but pleased the large audience of

peated tonight

1.-The Two Little Waits" will hold forth
at the Crawford for one night Friday,
October .. The play tells the story of
twin sisters, separated in infancy and
unknown TO each other. One becomes the
mother of two children that are made
waits through the efforts of the sister
separating husband and wife. The dual
role of the adventures and mother is in
the hands of Lolita Emmons. who plays
the part of the injured wife and the ad-
ventures in a pleasing way, though at
times the audience is at a loss to under
stand how the change takes place. There
are bright sparks of clever comedy that
run through the piece. particularly those
of Richard III and Pinkie, who relate
their trouble in a iaughable. fun-provok-
ing manner. The scenery and costuming
is said to be elaborate and expensive, some
of the gowns worn by the ladies being all
Worths productions of the dressmaker's
art.

Mine Run Price.


For the past few years there has
been provision for a test at the
mines affected in the second sub-dis-
trict in order to establish a price fee
mine-run coal, and Hon. III. l.. Water
man, of Ottumwa, with a view to es-
tablishing uniform price for this coal
all over the district, instead of having
a different price at every separate
mine, secured the appointment of a
subcommittee to arrange this matter.
This committee is composed of the
following four men, the two operators
being named first: Henry Phillips OF
Ottumwa H. l.. Byers of Lucas; Law"
renee Love of Hooking and F. l.. Rice
OF Avery.
The price for mining Lucas county
thin vein coal was stricken from the
scale, as there is no more of that vein
being mined at present, the mine
which form erly supplied it having been
discontinued.
Yardage Prices.
The price for driving eight foot eli
tries was fixed at 1917 per cent in
crease as in sub-district No. i, making
it S2.47 per yard for the coming year.
There was a long discussion when the
price for twelve foot entries was
brought up some of the miners refus.

an increase of from $1.50 to $l.T0 pei

INFLUENZA AGAIN
ANOTHER EPIDEMIC OF THE GRIP
rs ANTICIPATED,
Many Gases Reported Already in This
Part of the Country-A Common
Sense Kennedy for the Disease
and Its Effects.

Owing to the climatic conditions this
year many physicians fear another
epidemic OF the grip, that form OF in
f1uenZa which so many have cause to
remember. In some cases this dis
ease has run its course with but little
more severity than a hard cold in
others it has caused acute Sickness
In nearly every case it has left a train
of after-effects more troublesome than
the disease itself. 1t is characteristic
OF the grip that ordinary medicines
will not cure it permanently. The
patient seems to have recovered and
then suffers relapse more severe
than the first attack. The trouble in
such cases is that the disease was not
thoroughly eradicated from the sys-
tenn by the treatment employed.
Miss G. A. Peck, OF No. 633 East
Fourteenth street, Minneapolis, Mimi,
had very severe attack of grip in
1889, and 1t left her Frustrated. 81
could not get over that feeling of ut
ter exhaustion" she says, 81 had no
! ambition to do anything and any lit
tie exertion made me out of breath
and ured out. grew thin, nervous
and irritable. Then | decided to try
IL w Illldllo lin IT'D III l. dlC L w
pie and the first box made me feel bet
| ter. Four boxes restored me to my
natural good health"
The after effects of the grip are Of
| ten worse than the disease and many
times they battle all efforts of the best
physicians to drive them out OF the
system. Health is shattered-the
blood becomes poor, the flesh falls
away, the sufferer grows nervous and
irritable, and even slight exertion
causes shortness of breath. These are
dangerous symptoms and indicate
that the system is in a state that in
vites pneumonia, bronchitis or even
consumption. DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People will quickly restore
| the health after an attack of grip and
expel the lingering germs, and, work
ing through the blood, will render the
system proof against the disease. DR..

Der cent. Their reasons for SO refus-

per cent. Their reasons for SO refus-
ing were that in some mines, in the
district. this work is now being paid
for at the rate OF 81, So; and sl.7O per
yard, although the present scale price
Is now ST. so The reason isd for, this lack
of uniformity is that in past years,
these mines paid higher prices than
the others, and when the lesser ones
we're raised, the high, ones We're also
increased. This is the case, for in
stance, at ISeb, near OttumWa, where
the present price is $40 James New
in. the delegate from the keb local.
and Frank Cameron, delegate from
Hiteman, both of whom are on the
scale committee. cast their votes
against adopting this price of $1.70
for the entire district, but the MAORI
ty of the miners and all the operators
voted in favor of adopting it, and the
two were forced to accept. Nevin,
however, stated that he did not antic-
ipate an acceptance by the Keb min
ers. The officials of the miners or
ganization, however. regarded the
move as a wise one, insamuch as it
brings about uniformity without de-
creasing any mans wages in the least
while it increases the remuneration of
the great majority.
Room Turning Increased.
The price for room turning was fixed
at 1904, a l2A. per cent increase over
the present price.$44S. The additional
clause was adopted as follows: where
neck is required to be cut more than
three feet on one side, $2.25 additional
shall be paid.
The price for double shifting on en-
tries was fixed at 25 cents per yard ex
ira. the same as in the first sub-dis
trict
The question of break-throughs was
under discussion when the hour of adj
1ournment arrived. w. H. Powell.

Des Moines, March 18.-(Special.)--
The miners and operators joint scale
committee Tuesday broke away from
tho first sub-district and got TO work
upon the second, and the day may be
said to have been the best one yet in
point of work accomplished, since the
scale committee went into session.
With the exception of a few matters,
mentioned below, the first Sub-dis-
trict's scale is settled and conSidera-
BILE progress was made upon the scale
for the second sub-district before the
adjournment yesterday afternoon,
which was taken at o'clock, the COM
mittee deciding at . O'Clock, the regu-
lar time for stopping. to remain at
work an hour longer. During the past
two days the tagging spirit that was
SO noticeable among some OF the mem
bers of the body last week, has disap-
peared in great measure and both min
ers and operators are working now
with the idea of finishing as soon as
possible and getting home. The adj
vances granted yesterday by the oper-
ators in the second sub-district are
along the same lines as those granted
in the first, and indicate that the raises
all along the line will be governed by
those made in the southern field.
The greater number OF resolutions
following the scale of wages for the
first sub-district were adopted yester-
/ day afternoon, the only ones remain
Ing unsettled being those in reference
to smithing and the handling of blecl;
bats. The advance of 121s per cent
was allowed in all these resolutions
and at adjournment the scale for the
first sub-district is now settled with
the exception of the following qpes
tions: Machine mining prices, scale
for skip" entries in long wall work, in
side day wage scale, and smithine
prices. The resolutions as adopted
read as follows:
That in accordance with the state
law the company shall furnish all the
necessary timbers and the miner shall
keep his room securely propped. Il
the miner working in the room fails
to securely prop the same, or neglects
to prop as directed by the pit foreman

discussion. BLACK bats" it should be
known, are slips" in the slate of the
roof OF a miners room, varying in
thickness from one to sometimes
eighteen inches. This slate must be
taken down by the miner with the
coal, and the miners object to ham
ding it under the present deficient
work resolution, claiming that the
thickness should be limited by the res
olution After long discussion this
matter was referred to the following
subcommittee: Harvey Coon, of

Second Subdivision.

In the scale for the second, or the
Ottumwa sub-district: considerable
progress was made by the scale COM
mittee. The screen clause was adopt
ed as it was last year, and reads as
follows:
1.-THE screens shall be of flat or
akron shaped bars of not less than
five-eights of an inch surface with one
and three-eighths inches between the
bars, provided that where diamond
bars are now in use, with not more

No discussion was needed to settle
upon the price for mining screened
coal but it was raised from eighty
five cents to ninety-tive cents per ton,
in line with the other districts.

The Best Remedy for Group.

From the Atchison (Kan.) Daily
Globe: This is the season when the
woman who knows the best remedies
for Group is in demand in every neigh
borhood. One of the most terrible
things in the world is to be awakened
n the middle of the night by a whoop
from one of the children. The Group
remedies are almost as sure to be lost,
in case OF Group, as a revolver is
sure to be lost in case OF burglars.
There used to be an old fashioned
remedy for Group, known as hive
syrup and tulu, but some modern
mothers say that Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is better, and does not cost
sc much. 1t causes the patient to
throw up the phlegm' quicker, and
gives relief in a shorter time. Give
this remedy as oon as the croupy
cough appears and it will prevent the
attack. 1t never fails and is pleasant
and safe to take. For sale by all
druggists.

REASONS FOR GRATITUDE.

Before The Gazette will make it's
ing day will have passed. Somehow
it has become a custom for neWspa-
pers to dwell on the day and say some
thing to their readers in the way or
reminding them of the manifold bless
ings for which they should be CRATE
full, and the people have come to ex-
pect the reminder. Feeling that they
would be disappointed if it did not
follow the custom, The Gazette will
do as the other newspapers will GER
tainly do, but will make it's sermon
short.
Although the grasshoppers have
been more than NECESSARILY energetic
during the past season and the clouds
may have been more than ordinarily
reluctant in yielding their stores OF
moisture at times when they were
needed the most, yet the people OF
Billings and Yellowstone county have
ANY causes of gratitude. They have
been spared from pestilence and de-
vastation of any sort; there have
been no public calamities to burden
the heart and there have been no civil
strifes and no eruptions of any kind
to cause severance of the friendly
and neighborly feeling that has contin-
ued to bind them during the year now
drawing to a close. Commercial n
industrial interests have not suffered
because Of strikes and lockouts n
both the wage Garner and the employ
er have received fair recompense, the
one for his toll and the other for
his wares. The soil has produced
food for man and beast and there has
been no suffering or want. There has
been no political campaign to en-
gender hard feeling and give employ
ment to the %slanderer and falslfier
and the seeker, after Office has not
haunted the honest voter and driven
him to distraction. Peace and good
will have prevailed and the people
have been happy. The only cloud
appearing on their horizon is as yet
but a mere speck-the extra session
of the legislature will not convene
until next month.

QUITE A

In their effort to draw a parallel
the secession of the southern states,
the democratic editors that are still
continuing their criticism Of the ad-
ministration for it's prompt recogni-
ton Of the new reupblic, overlook n
very important fact. The government
of the United States when the states
of the south seeded did not turn tail
and relinquish it's claim Of sovereignty
over them. 1t did not, as the Colon
bians did, evacuate the seeding terri
tory. On the contrary it made every
possible endeavor to get troops into
them and by force maintain its author
ity.
1t was not until after the representa-
tives of the Colombian government,
civil and military, had Withdrawn and
left the Panamans in undisputed pos
session and control that the United
States forbade the government at b.
gotta to return with a military force
and make war upon the %seceders. Had
the representatives of that government
asserted its sovereignty and authority
in the first place and sought to queil
the insurrection the administration at
Washington would not have raised its
hand to stay them, whatever it might
have done to fulfill its treaty obliga-
tions in the way of keeping open traffic
across the isthmus.
Under the circumstances and condi-
lions existing in Panama at the time
formal recognition was given the new
republic it is hard to e what other
than the one pursued was open
to the administration. With the with
drawal of Colombian representation of
government no other form of govern

Now that the time for that very i'm
pOrtant event to occur is drawing
near, some of the newspapers of the
state laboring under an overwhelm-
ing of duty are prodigous with
their advice to one or the other OF
the parties supposedly most highly in
terested in the results to keep far
away from Helena during the session
of the legislature. These conserva-
tors of legislative purity seem to be
afraid that the poor Legislators might
in a moment of weakness give way to
temptation. Why they should single
out n or the other to- whom to direct
their appeals is not manifest. If they
really believe that legislators are not
above human weaknesses and are de-
sirous of guarding the good name OF
the state and the solons, why do they
not demand that both parties shall
absent themselves? 1t might be
thing new in legal procedure, but there
is the injunction. Possibly it could
be applied SO as to keep both alleged
tempters without the limits of the
place where the lawmakers are to
meet.

ment remained than that set up by
the people of Panama. There was no
one representing Colombian sovereign
ty or authority left. So far as the rest
of the world was concerned Colombia
sanctioned the bloodless revolution
and left the ~olpt-oalsts to their own
device, hence their de facto govern
ment was entitled TO recognition from
this or any other government.
AS to the claim that the Panamans
never suffered any injustice from the
parent republic the facts do not seem
to be so clear on the democratic side.
The history of the two does not bear
anna were taxed without stint by the
men at Bogota and received nothing
in return. Of the thousands of dol
lars paid weekly by the railroad COM
pany for the privilege of operating
it's line across the isthmus the Pana-
mans were given a paltry few hum
dred. The remainder went into peck
cts at Bogota and were used to keep
a dictator in power. Other instances
OF graft" were not wanting and to
say that Panama was honestly, wise
ly and patriotically governed by the
administration Of the alleged republic
of which it formed an integral is to
juggle with the truth. But this is
nothing unusual for democratic news
papers to do when seeking to create
sentiment against a republican admin
istration and the instance under dis
cussion is no different in that respect
than any other which the opposition
believed afforded an opportunity to
work a change in public opinion.
