Miners Will Return to Work.

An agreement has been reached be- tween the operators and miners in the vicinity of Fort Smith, and an or der has been issued from headquar- ters for the men to go to work. The miners secured all they contended for. All the mines are to be run on a mine run basis, the price being 62 cents a ton. There is a premium for good work, which means loading large percentage of good coal and the pre- mium is 90 cents a ton for cars load ed with a certain percentage of lump coal. The semi-anthracite districts are not included in the agreement.

the third on milo maize and the
fourth on molasses. They will be
weighed at the beginning of the ex-
pertinent and from time to time un-
til its close, about May /. The
relative value of the four feeding
materials will be shown by the
gains made by the four lots. The
cattle will then be put on the mar

being conducted in the Panhandle
country to test the relative .alue of
milo maize and cotton seed meal.

OUR SOLDIERS LOOK WELL.
Major Fuller SAYS the x. n. G. Con-
ttitions Are Excellent.

Major A. NJ Fuller, U. S. A, has
just completed the inspection OF The
First regiment of the Kansas national
guard. He said today;
while my report on the detailed
condition of the various companies,
and any recommendations which I
may have to make must be sent to
Washington first I can say at this
time that the general condition of the
First regiment of the national guard
of Kansas is very fine. 1t is a SPLEEN
did body of men. Many of the pri-
Yates are young but they are good
material for soldiers. The officers of
the regiment are above the average in
Intelligence and ability and with a
few months service in the field would
get right into the harness as soldiers.
Last Saturday night Major Fuller
inspected company A and the Topeka
platoon of the First field artillery. also
the brigade officers at the armory in
Metropolitan hall in this city. There
were few absentees from either the
company or the battery, and the To-
peka boys made a decidedly good i'm
preston on the inspecting officers.
Major Fuller has served all his life
in the United states regulars, and is
now detailed. as military attache of
the national guard of Kansas.
