his election. Now I went into this
thing with the determination to keep
out of such entanglements, and have
done so. I have promised no deputy
ships, and am free to select whoever
l want. It is natural that one of the
deputyships should go to Leavenworth,
but have not promised to appoint
Walker.
Mr.. GiIday is a comparatively young
man. He has been a miner ever

Atkinson Elected President.
There was no special contest for the
other Offices of society, to which no
pay is attached. The voting for these
offices was done by show of hands, in
stead of by roll call. John Atkipson of
Pittsburg was elected president on the
first show by a vote of 20 to 81. He has
been vice president Of the society the
past year.
For vice president there were five
nominations: Charles Harvey, John
Tanner. George Wickwire, George Har-
ris and W. c. Long. Wickwire anu
Long were eliminated on the first show;
Harris on the second, and on the third,
Harvey beat Tanner by vote of 50 to
81. Harvey is a young miner from Min
eral, Kan. His father is T. G. Harvey
of Peterton.
No Legislative Committee.
One of the most important actions
Of the convention was the abolition
of the committee on legislation, or
miners lobby which has always
been sent to look after legislation of
importance to the miners at the ses-
sion of the legislature. The miners
have decided that they can trust their
bills to the hands of the general legis-
lative committee of the State Society
of Labor and Industry, which was
selected by that society Wednesday
morning. The miners representative
on that committee is Eugene Bran
lett. of Mineral
There was. of course. a good deal
of opposition to the plan to abolish the
legislative committee. It has afforded
a pleasant three months job to three
or four of the miners. but the conven-
ton seemed to think that the game
was not worth the candle. They will
put their bills in the hands of the So
ciety of labor lobby
After this action the convention ad-
jOurned sine die.

Mixed Wives.

In the early part of the last cen

gland town a Mr.. Church, who, in
the course of his earthly life, was
bereft of four wives, all of whom
were buried i'll the same lot. In
his old age it became necessary to
remove the remains to a new Gene
terry. This he undertook himself,
but in process the bones be-
came hopelessly mixed. His
New England conscience" would
not allow him, under the painful
circumstance, to use the original
headstone, so he procured new
ones of which bore the following
inscription:
Here lies Hannah Church and
probably a portion of Emily

Sacred to the Memory of Emily
Church who seems to be mixed
with Matilda.
