Miners Accept Tonopah Scale.

Goldicid, Ncv.-Local No. 22O, West
ern Federation of Miners, Thursday by
referendum vote decided by a vote
Of 455 to 25G to accept the TOnOpah
scale of wages and declare the strill'
off as to those properties which will
pay the TOnopah scale.
Some days ago representatives Of
thirteen different leases agreed to pay
the Tonopah scale, which is 80 cents
a day less than the former Goldtield
scale. but so cents more than the Scale
recently adopted by the Mine Opera
tors Association.
The Mine Owners Association will
not grant the advance. The associa
tion companies include all the big
mines of the camp and against these
latter the strike is still in effect.
The miners Thursday elected an
ultra-conservative president by vote
Of four 20 one against the radicals.
The vote does not call Off the gen
eral strike, as has been reported. 1t
affects only about seventeen leases and
smaller mines in the camp, the own
ers Of which have agreed to pay $3.50
day, or the same scale that IL in et-
feet at Tcnopah.
Within two or three days perhaps
100 federation men will return to work
under the new rules. The Consoli-
dated Mines Company is still under
the ban and several others as we'll who
stick for $4.00 day.
1t is said that the camp will continue
to be open. without formal recognition
Of the federation by any of the opera
tors. The seventeen leasers and oth-
ers have become dissatisfied with some
of the rules of the operators associa-
tion and have decided to get their men
back at work, although still refusing
to pay the S. scale.
The vote Thursday may be regard
ed as significant in that it opens the
way for fuller resumption of work. The
new head of the union is Ed. Stone,
formerly of Colorado.

Why Stock Require Salt.

The requirement that all cattle,
horses and sheep grazing under per-
nit on the National Forests be given
salt at frequent intervals is a regula-
ton which has been found 10 go Il
long way in protecting the range and
conserving the forage crop.
Experience has been shown that the
want of salt makes stock restless. If
cattle and horses are not supplied as
they need 1t, they roam and wander,
haunting old sailing grounds used in
plants instead of eating them, paving
the ground and in other ways injurinT
the range But if their cravings are
supplied, they scatter peacefully over
the pasture grounds and feed at their
leisure.
Salt is so necessary to the easy and
profitable handling of sheep on the
range, that no flockmaster would think
of getting along without it. If sheep
do not receive their usual supply it is
only with great difficulty that they can
be held in bonds Or kept in camp at
night. So far as sheep are concerned,
no regulation by law is really neces-
sary, because the owners for their own
convenience, will salt their focks. But
cattle are not herded and the owners
might neglect to salt them if the reg
ulations were not strictly enforced.
Stock on different ranges require
varying quantities of salt. Sheep need
less on dry range than on green. An
average quantity for 1000 head of
sheep would be from 1000 to 1900
pounds each year For like number
OF cattle, from 5000 to 10000 pounds
a year is required. Horses need less
than cattle.
Old hunters, in the days of the pio-
neers. knew that deer and buffalo
Travelled long distances to lick salt in
saline springs. The Blue Licks on
Lickingriver, in Kentucky, and sim
liar mineral spring on Elk river, in
West Virginia, We're famous for the
herds of deer, buffalo and elk which
frequentcd them. The adjacent ground
was so deeply tramped that the marks
were to be seen many years after the
places ceased to be visited by these
animals.

Death Of A. e. Mulqueen.

Denver Yesterday afternoon at st.
Joseph's hospital occurred the death of
Hon. Andrew E. Mulqueen after an ex-
tended illness. He had been suffering
from complication of diseases, includ-
ing kidney trouble, and was brought
here some time ago from his home in
Aspen, and was built up in strength at
the hospital so that he withstOod the
shock o fan operation very well. Later
second operation was necessary to re-
lieve his suffering. and it was while he
was on the road to recovery that he
contracted cold, which developed into
pneumonia with fatal results.
Mr.. MulQueen was a man Of fifty-one
years and is survived by a wife and
two children, as well as brother and
sister. He was we'll known throughout
Colorado, having served in the Legis-
lature during 1866. At Aspen he was
engaged in the real estate and inSur-
ance business, together with numerous
projects, such as irrigation, etc. He
belonged to a number of fraternal or
ganizations, which gave him wide ac-
Quaintance. He was past exalted ruler
Of the Elks and belonged to the A. O.
U. W., Odd Fellows, Woodmen of the
World and Modern Woodmen.
He had been twenty-five years citi-
zen of Colorado and had been identified
with the carly growth Of Aspen. He
held various positions of trust in that
city, being at one time assistant post
master and at another period county
clerk and recorder.

BURNED CHILDREN BURIED.
Last Sad Rites for Victims Of Collin
wood School Fire.

Cleveland, O.-Funeral professions
on Friday began to wend their way to-
ward the cemeteries. bearing the bat
tered and charred bodies Of some OF
the l67 children who perished in We'd
nesday mornings fire in the Lakeview
school, Collinwood.
From 9 O'Clock in the morning until
dusk there was no cessation in the fu-
neral corteses. Those who had no
dead TO mourn as il personal loss stood
In the streets with barred heads as the
professions passed.
One of the saddest funerals was that
of the three children of Janitor Hirter,
held jointly with the services for three
other little ones. Mutterings against
the ianilor could be heard about the
village as griet-craZed parents sought
an object upon which to wreak ven
geance, forgetting, as they did, that
Hirtcr himself was walking with
bowed head and broken heart behind
the bers Of three of his beloved.
A detail of police was placed about
the lIirter home when the hour for the
funeral came. Fully 500 persons had
gathered, but when the collins were
carried out the doorway the crowd
spread and opened the way for them
without Protest or expression of hos
tility.
Altogether there were fifty burials
Friday AMI Saturday the gruesome task
was repeated. Sunday witnessed the
last of the Individual burials. and on
Monday the bodies of all those who are
unidentified were laid at rest with one
funeral.
Testimony, describing the mad rush
TO death of the school children was
given at the continued session of the
coroncr'3 inquest. Stories of heroism
on the part of the women teachers
were recitcd
+. p. Whitney. superintendent Of the
CollinwoOd schools, stated his belief
that no fire department could have
done any effective work after the fire
had started.
Two of the teachers told of their un-
avaling attempts to open one of the
doors in the rear, which they said was
locked.
The inquest also developed the fact
that after the first crush at the door
it was beyond human possibility to aid
those whom the fire was devouring.
In a statement Friday Chief Wallace
of the Cleveland fire department, after
an examination of the ruins Of the Col
linwood school, said it was his opinion
that the loss of life would not have
hc"n so great had there been no par
tiiions at the sides of the storm doors
at the rear entrance. Two feet eight
inches had been taken off either side
of the hall for the partitions. His ex-
animation developed that the doors
opened outward.
With the appropriation of $500 by
the Ohio Legislature and the funds sub.
scrihed locally there will be plenty of
financial relief for the stricken fami-
lies.
