Michael Powers an odd character who died in
Mount Vernon last week. is buried beneath a
monument which he selected for his own grave six
wears ago. Powers. who was an Irshman OF an
improyident but happy nature. worked on the
streets for many years. One day he came by
some money Unexpectedly. and, fearing that his
grave might not be properly marked after his
death he bought a fine tombstone. The stone

article was brought to his attention, Powers. who
was built like prize fighter. went to the news
paper office and wanted to wreck the place. He
found who the writer was, and hunted a week in

Powers will be greatly missed in Mount Vernon.
For years he attended public meetings and created
a disturbance at nearly all OF them he would
wait until complete silence prevailed, and then ne

Tie-Up in Colorado More Extensive

Only a Few Men Still at Wori
Eighty Per Cent. of Workers in
New Mexico Out.

Denver, Col, Nov. 1.-THE tie-up
in the Colorado coal fields in conse-
quence of the strike order issued by
John Mitchell, president of the United
Mine Workers of America, is more ex-
tensive than operators had anticipated
or union leaders had expected. In Las
Animas county, the principal battle
ground, the union leaders assert that
only 100 of the 5000 men employed in
the various camps were working
Tuesday. The operators, however, de-
clare that they still have about 1000
men in the mines. In Huerfano coun-
ty there are 1900 miners of whom
more than 1000 are already on strike
and the union leaders are confident
that they will succeed in inducing the
remainder to come out. Practically
all the 800 miners in Fremont county
are idle. In the northern field 1900
miners are on strike and about 400 are
working on small Independent prop

men have been conceded. In western
