Lead, S. D., Dec. 13.-Not. in all the
thirty years Of Leads existence has
there ,beentsuch a. joyful day as the one
On On, which j j!'l the news was made pubhe
that the Honaestake, company HAD
granted AN eight-honr day, as requestt-
ed by, the miners union. Everyone
feared the, strike: the women, the bust
I ness men, the management of mine
and the miners Themselves. i Conse.
Guently, when the news spread that
there would be no strike, the demon
STATIONS It! ? were general. Men threw
joy; women laughed and 3;::wept alter

foreigners fell on each others necks
in true old country fashion. Lead was
wild with Joy. -. 4...., .e.~..s.
A meeting Of the miners union, held
In response to the news that Superin-
tendent .Grier had allowed the eight
hour day, resulted in the appointment
Grier and arrange the details Of the
settlement. This meeting has not been
held yet, as there is still some dispo-
sition to find fault with the fact that
the men cannot come and go ON the
company's time. 1t is thought, how
ever, that this will not prove a serious
BAIT ba5rle + to the he settlement Other &C.,
it is known that no question Of wages
is involved. The wages allowed for
the ten-hour day will be maintained.
Good Feeling Everywhere.
The outlook for labor conditions is
brighter than it has ever been. Not
the least. factor in this encouraging
outlook is the action Of the Terry
Peak union. Three hundred men are
Po1I rfo;,
most of which have not yet arrived at
a idvidend-paying basis, but are spend
ing. money developing their properties
and building mills The union there
fore decided that it would not strike,
and that. this was not the time to ask
for raise of wages. This considera-
ton Of the men for the conditions I'M
der which their management is work
ing will receive, in time, it's own re-
ward.
William Randolph Hearst owns no
stock in the Homestake mine, and his
mothers closest business adviser is
Edward Clark of San Francisco The
opinion is general that Mr.. Hearst has
but little if any influence in the pol
icy Of the company.
Even More than Demanded. 49,.
Homestake employees are to receive
even more than they demanded, and
the time schedule goes into effect Dec.

the two unions met with Superintend-
ent Grier to arrange details. It was
finally agreed that the time taken to
go and return from the mines be di-
vided between the men and the COM
pany. -: ~:
Mr.. Grier also announced that the
company would extend the arrange
ment to the mill men and others work
ing above ground, giving them also
eight hours. This will necessitate the
employment Of three shifts at the mills

The demand for hours was made only
for those below ground. All questions
are now satisfactorily adjusted.

AFTER TYPHOID
The Unsuitable Appetite Must Be Care
fully Watched ."

An attack of typhoid fever usually
Leaves one with an enormous appetite.
The wasted body cries out for food ma
terial to repair the loss of body tissues.
If care is not used, the weakened
digestive organs may be overwhelmed
before they have become strong. -
There is no food that has the tissue
ties equal to Grape-Nuts.
This food is predigested- organs
are relieved of the necessity of digest
ing it; it is concentrated-affofd ing
much nourishment with little bulk;
contains all the essential food ele-
1ments for repair and energy. It is,
therefore, valuable under conditions Of
health as well as convalesence.

Paris, Dec. 13.-There was an impress
sive response this morning to the
clergy's appeal to their parishioners tc
attend the first masses celebrated out
side the pale .of the law a. coEre
sspondenta of the Associated Press wis
1ted a dozen churches, including Notre
Dame DIES VICTORIES, St. German d'Aux
errios, where; the signal for. the St
Barthotomew massacre was given; St
Roch, the Madelaine and st. Augustine
Everywhere it was the same story. The
front gates Of the churches were closed
but the Catholics, by the gray light of
dawn, We're streaming thru the side por:
tails. The interiors Of the buildings
were we'll filed. In several places there
was music, but nowhere was there the
slightest attempt to interfere with the
service or create a disturbance.
Police Are Present. ',>
Three policemen were stationed out
side of the porticos Of each of the
churches to prevent any possible dis
order, while police officers in plain
clothes were on duty inside, to note
the infractions Of the law, taking the
names Of the officiating priests and APP
'proximating the number Of those pres
ent with the object of making reports
to the justices Of the police. ~
( Formal charges were entered wher-
ever mass was celebrated, except at
the churches Of St. Jean l'Evangele
and st. Blaise de Charonne and at. Pere
la Chaise, whose parishioners, following
the example Of the frst-mentioned
church, made the called-for application
yesterday evening to hold services un-
der the law of 1881. The vicar of St..
Blaise de Charonne, when induced by
his parishioners to take the step, said:
Whatever the consequences, I re.
greet nothing: I am a Frenchman above
everything.'
Charges Are Entered.
Early dispatches from the depart
ments say that wherever mass was eel
ebrated, charges were drawn up and
summonses issued. At Chalons the Able
sRenaudin said that the church bells
Were not rung and that no person was
invited to mass, and that, therefore,
the assemblage had not the character
of a public meeting, whereupon he was
compelled by police officer to inscribe
his protest upon the summons.
AT the final meeting last night of the
diocesan council here it was decided
that neither the ecclesiastical resi-
dences nor the seminaries should be
abandoned except before a show of
force. ~
Yield to Pope Reluctantly.
It is officially stated that the letters
of Mgr. Montagnini, the expelled Sec
rotary Of the papal nunciature here,
show that the ma ority Of the French
bishops favored observance Of the
law Of 1881, and bowed with reluctance
to the papal decree. The official state
ment adds that the inviolability Of the
diplomatic correspondence of the nun
ciature was scrupulously respected be-
fore the rupture between the Vatican
and France

IRON WORKERS.
CHRISTMAS BONUS

Each employee of the Honolulu Iron
Works Co. was handed Merry Christ,
mas envelope which contained three
days pay.
T. Give Davies at noon yesterday
made speech from the top of STEP
ladder in the p1achine. shop. Mr.. Da-
vies said it was the custom of his late
father, Theo. H. Davies, to come to the
works on Christmas Eve and shake
hands with the employees. The speaker
said he did not know the employees per-
sonally, but he knew Billy Roe, with
whom he had worked in the machine
shop. Mr.. Davies said Mr.. Roe would
not allow him at that time to start his
machine unless he paid his footing
All the employees and their wives were
treated to footing" at the Y. NJ. c. A.
Hall.
Mr.. Davies explained that, as Mr..
Swanzy,, president OF the Honolulu Iron
Works, was on another island, 1t fell
on him to make the speech. At one
| time each casting made by the Homo
lulu Iron Works had a mortgage on 1t,
from which 1t had to be released before
1t could be taken away. Times have
changed and this year has been a good
year financially for the establishment.
Mr.. Davies instructed each employe
to go to the pay window after work
and receive a Christmas gift from the
Honolulu Iron Works Co. for a merry
Christmas and fond aloha. Three
cheers were given Mr.. Davies and Mr..
Wodehouse. who accompanied him, Mr..
Roe was called upon to respond. Billy
said he would not go to the top of the
ladder, as he1had reached the top and
was coming down. He thanked Mr..
Davies in behalf of his fellow shop-
mates for the practical way the Homo
lulu Iron Works Co. had shown its APP
probation of their part in making the
year successful

NO TROUBLE

sit In all a matter OF bad manage
ment by the San Francisco school
board" Principal Edgar Wood OF the
Normal school said yesterday with ref
erence to the Japanese difficulty over
there.
Vice Principal Robert Law OF the
Royal school made this opinion duet
by instant concurrence.
I'VE had exactly the same difficulty
here" Mr.. Wood said in answer TO a
remark on the alleged crowding of
American children out OF San Fran
cisco schools by grown-up Japanese
1.-THE matter was arranged here with
perfect satisfaction and no offense
given to the japanese"
How did you do it?" an Adver-
tiser reporter inquired.
Simply by applying the language
test in grading the pupils. Japanese
who could not meet that test were
assigned to the primary grades and
the older ones left. They simply could
not sit in the small seats provided for
young children. There was no room
for them to stow away their legs I'M
der the desks"
Il was relieved of twenty Japanese
in one day." Mr.. Law interjected.
"It was all done courteously and as
matter OF course" Mr.. Wood re-
sumed. mo different treatment was
accorded to the Japanese than to
Americans or any other nationality.
So there was absolutely no affront TAX
en- by the Japanese.
where did they go? Oh, they spread
around in different private schools. A
number went to st. Louis College.
Eyes, any japanese children who can
pass the examination for any particu-
lar grade are admitted to whatever
school is convenient and there Is alb
solutely no trouble Those coming up
to the required standard Of knowledge
in any class are likely to be respect
able enough, with regard to other con-
ditions of admission, to associate with
other children"

sioner of Public Lands, came before
Judge De Bolt yesterday on motion OF
the Attorney General TO dissolve II.
George d. Gear for plaintiff wanted the

Attorney General Peters strongly op-
posed the request. saying the temper
airy injunction should be argued at
once. 1t was obstructing a matter OF
executive policy, the Lanai lands ex-
change proposal. and meantime valu-
able options were expiring. An In
junction suit required a speedy deter

Judge De Bolt granted continuance
until Friday morning next. Upon a
reference made by Mr.. Gear to vaca-
ton, the Judge said he had reluctant

defer trials for Christmas week. but
