THE MINERS CAN END IT.
The Illinois Coal Ntnef< Have the Ending of the Strike In Their
 own Iiands.

Springfield, ILL, Nov 3-The ques- ton of the Illinois coal strike is now as to whether The members ot the United Mine Workers of the state will support the engineers in their conten- tion for more pay
 II develops that the miners have many men in their body who have passed the examination for hoisting engineers, but who have not been able to secure employment in the engine rooms and remained al digging coal
 The local unions now have the oues- tion of supporting the engineers un- der consideration They will vote on 1t i'll their local lodges and that will settle the question. If they decline 10 support the engineers, as they charge the engineers refused to promise them aid last spring. they Will man the en- zines from their ranks and go 70 work
 Should they decide 10 support he engineers in their opposition To the 5le per cent. reduction il is asserted the engineers will win.
 Many of the Hnion leaders openly charge he operators deliberately forced the strike to raise the prices of coal. which are unusually low on all grades this year.

The Spanish minister reached St. Louis Sunday incognito. Since his ar rival in the exposition city he has browsed among the Worlds fair sights and mingled with the crowd unhon- bred, unreeognized and unknown to fame. Despite the distinguished pres uge which attaches to the very name. he Las received no welcome
 The raison d'etre of his remarkable appearance is desire to see the fair. And the reason that he remains incog IS the fact that the court Of Spain is in mourning for the death =of the kings father. But when he distinguished visitor sees fit to apprise tEe Works lair management of his whereabouts and his actual presence, lie will be fit iingly received.

 But what was nay dismay 10 find that one of the cottages near the hotel 1 had chosen was owned by a fellow townsman. He greeted me effusively as Doctor before 1 had chance to shut him mp. But luckily 1t was on the beach. and thought no one was in hearing distance.

NOTES ABOUT NEEDLEWORK
Tasty Notions in Fancy Work for Dress Adjuncts for Home
 Workers.

Handmade lace is used for cuffs ana revers on the cloth gowns.
 Most effective girdles are made of the lowered and shaded ribbons.
 The girl who makes things" is busy now with that dainty and beautiful rib bon embroidery work, says the Chicago Daily News.
 Provide yourself with washing sleeve lets to slip over your dress sleeves when you are dusting or doing other household work The easiest pattern is just straight piece of stun run together and hemmed at the top and bottom: into the hems run elastic When you find how quickly the sleeyeiets become soiled you will realize how much they save your gowns.
 Whoever owns he merest scrap of real lace should get it out now. There is a place for real lace on almost every cos tune and nothing looks quite so well. \ little ingenuity in plating and doubling will make if possible to use the lace without injury. for to cut valuable lace Is an enormity that no rieht-thinking person would be guilty of. They should be handed down intact to the next gen eration.
 The newest turnover Is no longer linen. you must know, but bright-colored silk or satin with long tie of the same and the whole most gorgeously embroidered. turnover and long straight tie ends of green silk was made ornate with red and orange embroidery. There are red col lars, blue collars and collars of every one of the seasons brightest hues and for adding a flash of brightness to the dark wool shirtwaist suit nothing nicer could be imagined
 A blouse can be smartened mp for eve ming wear by the addition of ribbon bre- telles. Take three yards of good ribbon, about three inches wide Edge this with inchwide black velvet or a gold galoon a trife narrower Fit the ribbon al the back of the shoulders SO that 1t will enter the sleeve seam gracefully. and then make the two meet at the middle of the belt line in front, being folded into a fapering width below the bust After wards finish with a long loop bow with ends as long as the ribbon permits The same ribbon passed over the sleeves above the elbow and also tied into a bow with short ends will work a transforma- tion ill any blouse

Fear That Japanese May Celebrate Mikado's Birthday by Tak-
 ing Port Arthur.
THEY HOPE THAT GEN. STOESSEL
 MAY SUCCEED IN HIS DEFENSE.
By Curious Coincidence the Day ts the Tenth Anniversary of the Accession of Emperor Nicholas to the Russian Throne, and Therefore National Holiday.

St Petersburg, Nov. 2.-12 46 D. m.- The official reports from Tokio de- scribing the desperate assaults on Port Arthur, beginning October 26, have created visible depression at the war office. The sustained character of the bombardment with siege guns and the preaching of the walls by underground mines, but above all, the fact that the Japanese government, after weeks of silence regarding the operations of the besiegers. has given out these reports before actual success has crowned their effort, convinces the military au- thorities that after long preparation Gen Nogi is not only making a su preme effort to carry the fortress, but feels so confident of success that the result of the preliminary operations has been made public.
 They believe the assault was timed for the announcement of the fall of the fortress to be made upon the birth day of the mikado, Thursday, which, by strange coincidence, is the tenth anniversary of the accession of Elm peror Nicholas and great Russian holiday.
 Thursday. therefore, is expected to be marked by fate for a day of inn mense rejoicing either for Japan or Russia, according as the present as- sault succeeds or fails
 The war office is trying to buoy up the Russian hopes with reference to the long and successful defense Lieut. Gen. Stoesscl has thus far conducted, but things have now reached such a pass With the garrison. and the char acter of the present attempt upon the fortress is so determined that the au thorities frankly admit they would not he surprised if the end was at hand
 In the face of the gloomy reports di rect from Tol1io, the Invalid Russ, the army organ. announces that the storm ing operations ended with a repulse of the Japanese on Monday, but the pa per fails to give its authority for this important statement, No official report warrantnS fl has been received by the war office.
