OPERATORS HAVE GRIEVANCES.
Miners VIII Be Surprised to Find That NOT
All the Complaints Are on Their Side.

Wilkesbarre, Penn. June 21-When the Coh-
ciliation Board meets in this city on Thursday
the operators will have grievances to be ad-
justed as well as the miners. This will be
surprise to many of the latter, VINO peIeVeu
that the coal companies had nothing OF Whlch
to complain. The operators will take exception
to the many petty strikes, which are the cause
of much inconvenience and annoyance and VIII
also say that the non-union men are being in
terfered with and that the coal output is les
sened by the practice of employees remaining at
home certain days without permission
The miners will offset this with the charge OF
discrimination, saying that some of the men
active in the strike have not had work since
that the award of the commission has been
violated by a change in the conditions of mining
many places which does not permit the
miners to make much now as before the
strike and that the operators have broken an
old custom in the Schuylkil region, by having
men work an hour longer Saturday. Among
other important questions which the miners
settled will be the reduction of yardage
check weghmen and hours of labor for drivers
and company hands.

VIRTUES OUTNUMBER FAULTS.
Says the Rev. Mr.. Kemp in Defending the
New-York Police Force.

A memorial service in commemoration of the
twenty-sixth anniversary OF the founding of the
ROYAL Arcanum and in honor of the members VINO
died in the last year was held last night in St
PauIs Chapel. under the auspices of the Past
Regents and Regents Association Of this city. The
service was conducted by the Rev. Robert Morris
Kemp, who in his sermon praised the city police
force highly.
In such an organization this he said Il
recognize not the detante ne er-do-wes, who ac-
complsh little nothing of real value In life; but
] believe in this banding together with noble pur-
pose and unsetish aim of helping another and
those nearest and dearest. We find in such
men the bone and the sinew this great republic
We need not the sychopants of luxury and ease in
this land of to fulfil its holy purpose but we
of necessity have the noble willed strong minded
self sacrificing who will brave ALL that the
result they conscentiously long for at the last
be achieved
How prone fall in praising of
fellows down the level of complaint and deceit
1t seems have telling illustration of
this in that organized body of men, of whom
! believe this city of ours should be justly proud
but Of whom seldom hear aught but bitter and
condemning criticism and complaint. OF course. in
a large body of such compose police

puts il. overtaken by a fault.
But tell you these men. day by day, called
to minister to the nangled and the burned and to
witness the agonies and the throes of the MANNED

ister l know, with a tenderness and compassion
like unto woman's kind There may be faults
found and published. but there virtues far
numbering, visible to those who will be just enough
TO look the like of which in their courage and
heroism. but infrequently found in other walks
in life
Think then of the unknown heroes who walk
their humble ways of life admirably. Modest in
their endowment. modest still perhaps in
their attainment. these fight their way in life often
with a courage and contentment almost divine The
dull routine of grinding. very TO constant toll

an approval which in the day of accounting
find its just recompense and reward. This surely
must be what the prophet means by walking
humbly with thy God. and how many these
there are about seldom in unmindfulness

modest heroes the firing line than live on
