MINERS WANT A FAIR SHARE.
"Haven't Had IL. According to Opera - tors Figures" Says Mitchell.

@Haven't Had IL, According to Opera - tors Figures" Says Mitchell. -. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. C. .- John Mitchell, president of the United Mine Workers of America, was here yester. day as vice president of the American Federation of Labor to join in settling a dispute between typesetters and printers.
 The convention of anthracite miners to draft new demands for presentation to the coal companies on the expira. ton of the strike commissions award on April next will he held in Shamo. kin between Dec. ] and 10.
 'I can only repeat" said Mir. Mitch. ell, that it is my firm conviction that lasting peace in the hard coal fields can only be had through the recogni. tion of the union and an eight houI workdsy."
 Mir. Mitchell was asked about the claim that his demands. if granted, would mean an advance of 90 cents a ton to consumers of coal He said:
 Taking the figures of experts, the companies collected S30.O00.O00 ext7s from consumers after the awird of the strike commission. and they have never pretended the miners got more than $l6.0O0.0OO as their share. It seems tc me that the mine workers on the operators own showing have not re eeiyed their full share of the increased prosperity"

TRIALS FOR PACKERS.
Separate Hearings May Be Demand
 ed, Says Attorney Pagin.

CHICAGO, Sept. 6.-Twenty-one sep arate trials may be demanded before federal judges by the Chicago packers, indicted on charges of conspiracy in restraint of trade, within the next two weeks.
 After the matter of pleading had been continued until Sept. IS by Judge J. Otis Humphrey many of the attor- neys interested in the case held con Bultation, and at least one agreement was reached whereby a separate trial will be demanded from the govern ment. This move was anticipated by the government, and every effort will be made by the federal attorneys to offset the requests of the defendants.
 Assistant Attorney General Oliver Pagin in speaking of the contemplated demands, for separate trials declared last night that it is not probable that separate hearings will be granted by the federal courts under the one in- dictment charging conspiracy.
 ''All these defendants are included in the one indictment charging conspiracy in restraint of trade" said Attorney Pagin Conspiracy of course will be the essence of the case, and inasmuch as it takes all of these defendants to- gether to form the alleged conspiracy there is no reason why they should not be tried together. and the government will use every effort to have all of the defendants tried at the same time"

MAKING JAPANESE GARDEN.
Nature, Taste of Artist, Personality of Owner, All Taken Into
 Consideration.

Many a wise man from abroad has said of the pictorial artists, as well as of the masters of landscape garden ing in Nippon, that the one master to whom they go for lessons and guid- ance is nature. They are wrong as critics in general, and the imported ones in particular are apt to be, writes Adachi Kinnosuke. in Country Calen- dar.
 The landscape gardener in Nippon, like all our artists, serves two mas ters-nature and his own personality. With us the mere copy of nature is lit- tie better than caricature of a good and great thing; natural scenery should be seen and appreciated in it's original state as the gods had left it on the canvas of their own choosing. on the same ground that you should never see a counterfeit of a master piece of painting.
 Nature plus the man is the beginning of art in Nippon. Sometimes the land scape gardener in Nippon is called upon to serve three masters. Added to the fidelity of nature and the play of his individual taste, he is called upon to take serious thought unto the per sonality of the owner of the garden. And perhaps that is the reason why the art of landscape gardening is con- sidered. with us as one of the most difficult of fine arts A mans garden. like his dress and his library. must first be a mirror of his personality.
 The tale it would tell when the friends of it's master came to see it must be about the master himself it must tell this story not only in the terms of art, but so plainly. too. that the guest. looking at the garden and pleased with the beauty thereof. would only see in what pleasing terms it's author has Interpreted its masters personality through it all The chief thing which a good garden ought to show to the eyes of men ought to be the man and not the garden itself

out water and beyond committing dis tance of New York but in fashionable region, brought s250.0O0 last week, Mir. Murphy was moderate in expenditure.
 Iwonder if Murphy, who is rich man now, ever thinks in his Long Island re- treat, of the country homes of other Tammany sachems. Tweed died in exile; his famous place in the near corner of Connecticut, is now part of the estate of Banker Benedict, Grover Cleveland's close friend, and the old landmarks fa- miliar to the Americus club boys are all obliterated. Dick" Connolly, the comptroller of the city under the Tweed ring, had a fine place on Manhattan island, then rural enough. His old house has been a tramp-infested ruin for years, the festive and elaborate sum- mer house only remaining in recogniz- able shape. The grading of the new Lafayette boulevard has destroyed that and hundred tons of rock cover it's site. Croker never had country place in America, nor any need for one. During his latter years in power he made ire quent trips to England for rest, and when in the city lived in his luxurious apartments at the Democratic club. He has not for long time lived with his family Mir. Croker's country places are good enough, no doubt. in Ireland and in England, but they would hardly be called show places; and they contain little enough of happiness just now for the broken old man with the snow white beard and the deep-lined face. The death of one of Mir. Croker's sons in an automobile accident and of another in carouse is followed by the marriage of Florence Croker to an Italian nobleman, Count San Martino, form of alliance promising little happiness to an Ameri- can girl.
