not having completed the opinions as
signed TO them, which. IN the natural
course, need not be finished before the
meeting Of the court in October.

were able TO be present.

CHILD CALLED MRS, NATION DOWN
Saloon Smasher Was Unable to Answer
When Asked II She Was Smoking.

Carrie Nation, who for several years
has made a business Of smashing sa-
looms and lecturing boys for smoking
cigarettes, was given a call down this
morning by a three -year-old child. 1t
was so unexpected that the women
whom it was supposed to be impossible
TO embarras, was so taken down she
could not even answer the child
During her visit to this city Mrs.
Nation has been stopping at the Gables,
Delaware avenue and Tatnall street
While passing through the Office yes
terday she noticed a man smoking a
cigarette. The enemy of saloons turn
ed up her nose and said: 1 smell a
skunk" After this expression she
walked Indignantly from the room.
This morning. it is said, she again
smelled smoke in the Office and at once
became angry. Il want to get up high
to be free from this vile odor" she said.
The clerk informed her that the high
est safe place for a lady around the
hotel was a back porch Mrs. Nation
at once went up to the porch where
several other women were seated. The
saloon smasher after being seated
started to use an inhaler for her throat.
Just about this time a three year old
boy came out on the porch. He looked
at Mrs. Nation for awhile putting on
the inhaler and then remarked:
You ought to be ashamed Of your
self, you are smoking a pipe"
This query completely floored the
woman from Kansas. She gave the
boy one withering look but never made
answer.
Mrs. Nation while on a street car
this morning attempted to call down
man for smoking a cigar. The man
simply pointed to the sign which reads:
THE two rear seats for smokers" and
continued to pun on his weed.

Operators Make Important concessions
to Miners-A Moral Victory For the
Latter-Both Sides Face the Question
squareIy.
wilkes Barre, Pa, Aug. 6.-There is
"A general feeling of relief through the
anthracite region because of the pro-
posal Of the operators on the concilia-
|tion board yesterday by which the
threatened strike can be averted. This
by asking Judge Gray of Delaware
to settle the dispute.
While the mine workers have not
yet accepted the offer to submit the
Tissue to him. it is believed that they
. win do so as the suggestion is some-
'vhat the same as one they recently
t11ade to submit It 10 the strike COM
mission. The diniculty of getting this
body of men together and the fact that
Ithet operators declare the strike COM
|d4sion is out of existence prevented

II cannot see why there should be any
#ohiection 20 submitting the checkweigh'
men controversy to Judge Gray as jurisi
4 for judicial Interpretation OF the an
thracte strike commissions award. We
refuse. however. TO consider ap ropostior
TO give the matter into his hands as pres

the commission has adjourned sine die
and 1t would be just as improper to re-
& convene It as it would be to reassembl'
IA legislative body. In opposition to oui
Ncont sntion the miners hold that the com
missioh had adjourned to meet at tbs
call Of the chair"
The question at issue is whether all th'
#miners shal lbe required to contribute
towards paying the acknowledgment oi
only those who consent to pay. Appar.
ently e is a small point, but If it is de-
4 ,ided that only those who consent tC
Hpay shall pay. few would consent ant
there would develop a natural hostilit,
