What Our Schools Lack.
Miss Adele Marie Shaw, who has
been investigating the public school
system Of the United States in series
of articles for the Worlds Work, finds,
first, that the schools are inadequate
In cultivating healthy bodies; second,
the average mental training of school
graduates Is hardly less meager, as
proved by their gullibility and their
vulgar tastes; third. the school showing
is poorer still morally Miss Shaw ad-

ers. The cost of strikes is reported at
$286O,62O. The treasurer shows that
$3O5,O00 was collected and 100000
was expended, leaving a balance of
$4,000. The present membership of
the federation is said to be 1,75O,OOO.
Mr.. Gompers said that the mainte-
nance Of industrial peace waste be de-
voutly prayed for, but that $50 long as
private greed or shortsighted interests
dominate the Judgment and actions of
employers just so long will strikes, or,
better still, the preparedness of labor
to strike be a determining factor to
bring about Industrial peace on a more
equitable basis"
Textile Strikers Stay Out.
When the machinery in the various
cotton mills at Fall River started up
Nov. II it was hoped by the employ
ers that sufficient number Of the
striking operatives would return to
work at the reduced scale to justify
keeping the mills open, but in this they
were disappointed. On that day big
mass meeting of the weavers, both
union and nonunion, was held in which
the sentiment against returning to
work was almost unanimous. At most
Of the mills from eight to twenty
workers, showed up, and the largest
number at any one mill was forty.
The employers decided to abandon the
attempt to operate the mills at present.
Eight Hour Day For Miners.
In the mills Of five big mines of the
Telluride (Colo.) district notices have
been posted stating that the eight hour
day and a wage Of So will prevail. IT
was the demand for this concession
that precipitated the strike in the mills
and mines of Colorado.
Symphony Orchestra Nonunion.
The members Of the famous Boston
Symphony orchestra. have all quit the
Musicians union. The orchestra thus
becomes definitely and absolutely a
nonunion organization.

VICE TURNING MOVEMENT
INDICATIONS ARE THAT JAPS ARE
UNDERTAKING ONE ON THE
RUSSIAN LEFT.

Mukden, Nov. 25.-Indications are
growing that the Japanese are under
taking a wide turning movement on
the Russian left.
A large number of commissariat wa
CONS have been observed going east
ward and some artillery exchanges
have also been reported from the east
ward. :
General Kuropatkin has permitted
men who have captured horses to sell
them to officers, the proceeds to go to
the families of men killed in battle.
Fodder is becoming exceedingly
scarce.
The spirits of the men are good and
the food is satisfactory. The rations
of the men at the outp0sts and in the
advance trenches are sent to them at
night as it would be impossible to do
so during the day because the Japa-
nese shell every convoy.

CURED at Schenectady, N. Y, Nov. IL,
when the new electric locomotive built
for the New York Central railroad by
the General Electric company and
American Locomotive works had it's
official trial. Pulling four car train,
this locomotive reached a speed Of
nearly seventy miles an hour. Incl
dentally race was run on the expert
mental track with the fast mail on the
regular track, the latter train being
left far in the rear. Besides getting
under Roadway quicker than with
steam engines, the electric train can
stop quicker. Safety is furthered by
the absence Of fire. A central corridor
through the cab makes easy passage
from the locomotive to the cars. The
locomotive has a maximum horsepow-
er Of 5000 tons, weighs ninety-five tons
and has an average speed Of sixty
miles an hour with 500 ton train. The
trials demonstrated that the steam To-
connective had met at last a formidable
rival. They were witnessed by promi-
nent electricians and engineers from all
parts of the country. The first electric
engines will be used to haul express
trains from Croton to New York, q
service which will be begun in the fall
of 1906. -,s-..

Not by paralyzing the nerves and
glands, like opium, morphine, cocaine,
and other dangerous drugs, but by in
creasing the natural secretions.
This action is obtained as a result OF
modern discoveries in medicine, making
it possible to relieve pain without bad
after effects.
You can safely depend upon DR.. Miles
Anti-Pain Pills to relieve and cure such
pains as Neuralgia, Headache, Stomach
ache, Menstrual Pains, rheumatism,
Backache, Toothache, etc.
They will also, by their calming act
ion on the nerves, almost instantly re-
lieve such distressing feelings as Dir
illness, Car-Sickness, Indigestion, Irri-
liability, Sleeplessness, Nervousness, etc.
Not merely do they relieve, but they
also absolutely cure, because by perse-
vering in their use, you do away with
the cause.
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills are guar
anteed that first package will benefit, or
