MINERS ATTEND A BIC MASS MEETING Pratt City and Wylam Locals
 Meet at Ensley
MEN WILL NOT RECEDE
Reported That Delegates to Conven- ton Have Received No New ln- structions and Situation Is
 Not Very Bright.

Ensley, July 23.-lSpeclaL)-The Pratt City and the Wylam locals, United Mine Workers of America, held a mass meet ing this morning at the Ensley opera house. While the meeting was in execu- tive session it is understood that the general subject of discussion was the miners convention to be held in Birming- ham Monday.
 Adam Pow, president of the Vivian lo- gal, presided, and speeches were made by District President Ed Flynn and National Committeeman William Farley. Fully l, 300 miners were present, but the session was devoid of any excitement.
 The miners were reluctant to talk over the position taken at the meeting, but it Is understood that the men are deter mined not to recede from their position relative to the signing of the scale with the operators.
 As these are two of the largest locals in the state. their position will have con- siderable weight in influencing the ac- tions of the miners, Monday. From the gossip on the streets this evening it is understood that the two locals continued the same delegates that attended the miners convention last month. It is learned furthermore, that the delegates were given no new instructions. If that be the case. they will be prepared to make no concessions.
 From the talk on the streets, the situ- ation is not very bright Already there Is considerable talk as to whether the benefit fund shall be distributed in case a strike is ordered. It is understood that the officers at the headquarters are in fa- vor of the benefit being paid in provisions, while the local officers seem to favor It's payment in money.

PRATT CITY BOARD
 TO HOLD MEETING
STEPS WILL BE TAKEN TO RE- DUCE THE ClTYS EXPENSE AC- cOUNT-PEOPLE ARE ANXIOUS OVER POSITION OF MINERS.


 Pratt City. July 28-6special)-The mayor and aldermen will meet in regular semi monthly session next Monday night. The chief question to come before the body will be the retrenchment of the city's expenses. The finance committee has been working for the past two weeks on policy which will be presented to the council.
 At the last meeting of the council it was decided to begin some movement that would result in reducing the cty's current expenses. This action was inspir- ed by the present stringent times that threatent the Pratt City district.
 Although the finance committee has given out nothing as to what steps will be recommended, it is understood that there will be a decided reduction.

Sometimes after a diagnosis of consumption has been made by competent physicians Peruna has per manently cured.

 We do not recommend Peruna as a con- sumption cure, but we do claim that it will prevent consumption If taken before the disease Is thoroughly established. It is only the cases of incipient consumption that we feel confident that Peruna will cure

 Cafes and lunch-rooms are filled with men and women who seem to give all their time and attention to thoughts of properly or improperly feeding their stomachs. It is of course best to eat slowly, but not too much" says Dr. Pierce, chief consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Sur gical Institute, of Buffalo, N Y. In this 2oth century people devote so much time to head work that their brain is fagged and there isn't sufficient blood left to properly take care of the other organs of the body. The stomach must be assisted in its hard work-the liver started into action-by the use of good stomach tonic, which should be entirely of vegetable ingredients and without alcohol. After years of experience in an active practice, Dr. Pierce discovered a remedy that suited these conditions in a blood maker and tissue builder. He called it Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery -an alternative extract that assists in the digestion and assimilation of the food in the stomach-so that the blood gets what it needs for food and oxidation, the liver is at the same time started into activity and there is perfect elimination of waste mat ter. When the blood is pure and rich, all the organs work without effort, and the body is like perfect machine.
 FREE Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser is sent fire on receipt of stamps to pay expense of mailing only. Send 2I one-cent stamps for the book in paper covers, or 3I stamps for the cloth bound volume. Address Dr. R V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
