From all parts Of the state come

more than the contract price for doing
the actual work OF repair. In all
cases the preliminary expenses were
large when compared with the cost

Washington, April 3.-Hearings on
the question of whether lock or
sea level shall be constructed at Pan
anna, which have occupied the atten-
tion of the Senate Canal committee
for many weeks, have been concluded
The committee will now proceed to
hold executive sessions for the deter
mination of this question, whether
the work shall be done by contract
and what legislation is necessary for
the government of the canal zone.
Both the sea level and lock canal adj
vocates are claiming a majority in
the committee, by the narrow margin
of one vote. The committee is practi-
cally unanimous in favor of letting
out the work of digging the canal by
contract but whether in one large
contract or several smaller ones their
is diversity of opinion. At the first
executive session of the committee
held this morning, it was practically
decided to take up first and report a
bill for the government of the canal

Scranton, Pa, April 3.-The news
that came here today from New York
was of a gloomy character and men
who were yesterday predicting that
the suspension would end with the
present week now hear that they are
on the eve of another long and bit
ter strike in the anthracite belt. Peo-

effort to fill their coal bins.
1t was found today that a majority
of the miners are rather enjoying their
suspension 1T is no hardship at all,
said one.
One anthracite min ewas operated
today and a Lackawana one at that.
1t is the Bellevue. The miners as
sert that IS miners were induced to
go back to work at tbs colliery this
morning being taken into it through
the gangways of the Oxford and
Dodge mines to avoid disturbances.
The official statement was made by
the Lackawana Company that two
hundred additional men reported for
work today. That company contin-
ued to work all its washeries and an
nexes here. The Delaware and Hud-
son Company started up two addi-
tional washeries and the Scranton

Money Is To Be Raised 70 Help School

The Domestic Science Association
of the city will hold food sale on
Saturday, April 7, at the southeast
corner of Eleventh and Main, and ask
the support of the public. The Fin
ley school is interested in the subject
of Domestic Science, and the pupils
are making an effort to fit up kitch-
en- in the building. Aside from the
assistance given by the school board
funds are lacking to supply the nee
essary utensils and the proceeds of
the food sale will go toward assisting
the movement, which everyone must
acknowledge is a worthy one, and
shows how anxious the children are
for Domestic Science to be introduced
into the school curriculum. This is
the chief aim of the Domestic Science
Association of Richmond, and the
members hope this step taken by the
Finley school will give impetus to the
movement in all the schools of the
city The growth of the movement
will, of course, be slow, but every en-
enlargement should be given by
Richmond's citizens, men as we'll as
women, so that the coming generation
will be one of good and joyous house
wives-joyous in that knowing the
best way to do things, housekeeping
will not be burden but pleasant oc-
cupation. If you are interested, come
