YOUR BOY.

Speaking of boys, Ebert Hubbard
the versatile editor OF the Phil istine
says:
II have a profound respect for boys.
Grimy, ragged tousled boys in the
streets often attract me strangely A
boy is man In the cocoon--you don't
know what II is going to become-his
life is big with possibilities. He may
make or unmake kings, change the
boundary lines between states, write
books that will mould characters. or
invent machines that will revolution.
iZe the commerce OF the world. Tween.
W years hence the boys of today will
be men. They will be doctors and
drunkards, lawyers and liars, senators
and sneak-thieves, editors and idiots,
ministers and murderers, democrats
and republicans, and so on down the
line. 1t Is impossible to tell for GER
tainity in just what class yours will
be, but it is possible for your boy to be
put under such influences as will steer
him in the right direction. Follow
the boys for II years, some Of them
will be in jail. What class is your
boy training for?"

THE COAL STRIKE.

Two years ago the coal miners ac-
cepted a 81 per cent reduction in their
wages. They want the old wage re.
stored now and are ready to strike II
they do not get what they want. III
the miners quit work 1t means that
$1,000 union men 90 out OF the mines
of central and western Pennsylvania,
10, 900 out of the West Virginia mines,
5000 out in Ohio, 1900 in Indiana,
10000 in Illinois, 10000 in Iowa, and
5000 in Michigan, 5000 in Kentucky,
and 10000 in the southwestern states
Kansas, Missouri, Indian Territory,
Arkansas and Texas. Most OF the
Alabama miners are now on strike.
Exceedingly conservative estimates
place the aggregate loss to these, If
they go out, at 81, 100000 week-but
even this tells little.
In the Georges Creek coal fields,
western Maryland, about six or seven
years ago there was strike and for
many months the miners held out Tor
a raise Of just few cents day. The
average coal miner in that section, and
in most other sections for that matter,
is not given to saving much money.
He usually lives well, drinks a little,
and spends his money as fast as he
makes it, When these eastern coal
men went out, they had nothing to
sustain them through the fight. In
every city and town through that
whole region the merchants were
asked for credit. They believed the
strike would soon end, and extended
the credit. But the strike was not
settled and soon small firms failed.
The big firms then gave less credit and
families went hungry. Finally many
of the biggest houses failed and more
families went without bread and meat.
The strike continued through the
winter and suffering is beyond words;
the whole country was bankrupt and
suffering bred anarchy. Finally the
great strike was ended, The miners
getting about half what they had
asked for a pittance amounting to
about fifteen cents a day.
The Georges Creek country has
hardly recovered from that strike
even yet, and the mention of the word
strikes a chill to the heart of miner
and townsmen who live by the trade
Of the miner.
The coal miners get too little pay
for their work, but until every miner
is ahead financially, will able to pro-
vide for himself and family for two or
three years without work he can never
afford TO countenancc the strike idea
