WHAT is DOING
THE WORLD OVER.
A WORD ABOUT THE LEADING
EVENTS OF THE WEEK
Anthracite Coal Strike is Over.

At Scranton, Pa, last week, the repre-
sentatiyes of the anthracite coal miners
union, at a convention held TO consider
the troubles with the operators that re-
suited in a suspension Of work April LIST,
accepted the advice OF President John
Mitchell and voted TO renew the award of
the strike commission for another term Of
three years, instead OF going on formal
strike, providing the men could return to
work al once without prejudice. This rs
entirely satisfactory to the operators, for
il was their own proposition in the first
place. The men will probably return to
work today. There viii be no change in
wages or labor conditions, and should be
no Increase in cost Of coal. The usual
summer prices for anthracite will now go
into effect. President Mitchell advised
the miners that while they had cause for
striking the outcome was in doubt, and
even II they won it would be at heavy cost
to themselves. They have been idle six
weeks and have lost their wages for that
time. The soft coal miners are now most
ly IN operation under the new scale, so
that the fuel trouble seems al rest for this
year.

POLK STREET TO BE CLEARED
City Council In Special Session Tuesday Passes
Ordinance Prohibiting Vehicles Standing
On Main ThOrOughfare.

No serious objection to the pro-
posed city law was offered, the only
question of import being, can such
be enforced" All of the law max
ers were in favor of either making
a clean sweep or letting it pass en-
tirely, so the former was adopted.
The ordinance. while in some re-
spects it may seem stringent, will,
according to those who expressed
themselves, soon be learned by all
effected, who will get the hab-
ltofhitching atother places. The OBJ
ject of this ordinance, as stated by
one of the Commercial Club COM
mittee, is not to work a hardship on
any one, nor is there in view any
class of people, but it is for the con-
venience of all. The sprinklng
wagon, which has been on but a
few days, is valuable asset to
Polk street, but it is hampered in
its good work, very much, on &C
count of that street being contest
ed with vehicles almost the entire
day. Hitching posts are to be put
in convenient places, and a number
of business men have taken it upon
themselves to directthe people who
come to their places of business
the locations until they become fa-
miliar with them. The proposition
of putting in side walks came up
at this stage for a good share OF
attention from the council, and the
verdict was to aid everyone as far
as possible in doing this, Every
move in this direction is to be en-
couraged by the city fathers, and
all assistance possible at the hands
of the street commissioner, will be
given. In connection with this, it
was stated that the ladies of the
Civic League had taken up the work
and had several things in view,
which, if carried out as is desired,
would be a great aid in the work.

The city council convened in ex-
ira session Tuesday, for the pur-
pose of considering the passing of
an ordinance to prohibit wagons,
buggies, carriages and other We
hicles from standing on Polk street,
and also to discuss the sidewalk
matter. All the officers, with the
exception of Alderman W. L.
Thompson, who is out of the city,
we're present, as we'll as number
of citizens.
Promptly at the appointed hour
Of three o clock Mayor Miller called
the body together. The roll call
and the reading of the minutes of
the previous meeting, as is usual in
the special sessions, was dispensed
with, and the first business was in
regard to putting in a fire plug near
the ice plant. Mr.. A. Davidson in
behalf of such, appeared before the
body and asked that plug be put
in near the plant, as at present
there was really no protection to
any of that property. There is a
plug but a few hundred feet away
which could be used, but for the
fact that it is across the railroad
tracks. The matter was discussed
at length and finally referred to the
fire and police committee to inves-
tigate, and report at the regular
meeting Of the council. The ordi-
nance relating to Polk street was
then taken up, and after consider
able airing from almost every point
of view, was passed. A committee
from the Commercial Club was on
hand, and presented argument in
favor of the ordinance, stating
among other things that it was
their belief that nearly all of the
business men of the city were in
favor of taking every vehicle off
the main business thoroughfare.

Water and Solids I'm Milk.

When the cream Or fat Is removed
every 100 pounds Of skim milk contain
about 90 per cent Of water and 10 per
cent Of solids. The solids contain
about 3.5 per cent Of casein and As per
cent Of milk sugar, with small proper
tions of fat and albumen as the fat
cannot be entirely removed. The milk
sugar remains in the whey when 1t sep
arates and the casein in the curds or
cheesy matter, though both contain
small percentages of fat, albumen, etc.
The whey will promote the formation
Of fat, while the curds supply the ele-
ments for growth and muscle. 1t will
be an advantage to feed the two sub
stances together, adding bran and sea-
son lightly with salt. If the skim milk
becomes very sour and begins to fer
ment 1t should not be used at all. The
proper plan is to use the skim milk
when fresh or but slightly sour.
