FEAR TROUBLE WITH MINERS
Dispatches From State Authorities In- dicate That the 10000 Strikers Have Overthrown All Barriers and That Peaceful Settlement Is Not Possible.

Overthrown All Barriers and That
 Peaceful Settlement Is Not Possible.
 Washington, Dec. 5.-As result of a sudden new outbreak at GOldtield, New, where upward of 10000 miners are on strike. President Roosevelt was requested by telegraph from the gov ernor of the state to hold federal troops in readiness to assist the local authorities.
 General Oliver acting secretary of war. and General Bell. chief of staff, went hurriedly to the White House to advise with the president and arrange for troops to be sent at moments notice from San Francisco, the near est point to the scene of trouble. Sen ators and representatives of Nevada here have been advised of the serious ness of the threatened clash.
 Miners Refuse Cashiers Checks.
 While versions of the trouble vary, the direct cause is said to be the re- fusal of the miners to accept the cash ier's certificates of the John S. Cook X Co. bank in half payment for their wages. They demand cash.
 From information received here the miners threatened trouble from the first when anything but cash payment was spoken of by the bank. When the banks were unable to accede to their demands they struck. Realizing that the situation might momentarily become serious, as the entire town of Goldfield is practically made up of miners and their families, the banks have been making efforts to effect some settlement or guarantee the min CTS pay. It was hoped they would succeed but the alarming dispatch from the state authorities indicates that the miners have overthrown all barriers and that amicable settlement of their difficulties is no longer possi- hle

BOOK REVIEW

Randall Parrish's description of his
heroine, in his new novel, Beth Nor
VEIL" which has just been published by
A. c. McClurg & Co., of Chicago, is in
expressibly touching in its pathos and
appeal One cannot help but under
stand the feeling of pity and sympathy
with which Ned Winston first saw her,
amid her desolate surroundings.
Through the mistake of a sleepy hotel
clerk, the young man had been directed
to the wrong room, which Glanced to
be hers. This is the way Mr.. Parrish
tells it:
Rounding the upper railing, he stop
ped abruptly before Number Twenty
seven, flung open the door, took a sin
gle step within, and came to a sudden
pause, his careless whistling suspended
in GREATNESS surprise. With that sin
gle glance the complete picture became
indelibily photographed upon his mem
ory-the narrow. sparsely furnished
room with roughly plastered walls; the
small. cheap mirror; the faded-green
window curtain, torn half in two; the
sheetiron washstand; the wooden chair
across which rested the gray coat with
the blue toque on top; and the single
cot bed bearing its unconscious occu-
pant.
Somehow as he gazed. his earliest
conscious emotion was that of sym
pathy-it all appeared so unspeakably
pathetic, so homesicll, SO dismaIly for
lorn and barren, Then that half-up-
turned face riveted his attention and
seemed to awaken a vague, dreamy
memory he found himself unable to To-
caIize; it reminded him of some other
face he had known, tantalizing from it's
dim indistinctness. Then this earlier
impression slightly faded away, and he
merely beheld her alone. a perfect
stranger appropriating little by little
her few claims to womanly beauty.
There was no certain guessing at her
age as she lay thus, one hand pressed
beneath her cheek, her eyes closed. the
long, dark lashes clearly outlined
against the white flesh, her
bosom rising and falling with the steady
breathing of absolute exhaustion. She
appeared SO extremely tired, discour-
aged, unhappy, that the young man
as though some wrong had been per-
sonally done to himself He marked
the dense blackness of her heavy mass
of hair; the perfect clearness of her
skin; the shapeliness of the slender,
outstretched figure: the narrow boot
with it's high-arched instep peeping
shyIy beneath the blue skirt; the some
thing rarely interesting, yet which
scarcely made for beauty, revealed I'M
consciously in the upturned face with
its rounded chin and parted lips
'aThere was no distinct regularity of
features but there was unQuestion-
ably character, such character as we
recognize vaguely in a sculptured face,
lacking that 1ife-lilxe expression which
the opened eyes alone are capable of
rendering All this swept across his
mind in that instant during which he
remained irresolute from surprise. Yet
Winston was by nature gentleman;

abound in the Scotch Lothlans. A re-

survey records the discovery Of an i'm
