The season of peace on earth, good

unlike war, no adequate system OF

special representative at Monongah,
who endeayored TO estimate the hui

of a hal street back of the mines
mouth:
A knot of silent mine workers, in
boots and cOrduroys and oyeraIis,
could be made out from the rim or
the bluff above them; and there sat
in heavier silence a group OF shawled
women, waiting. Behind them ran a
little street. thick in mud, with domi-
no shaped stepping stones at the
crossways, with colorless little houses
and propped walks and here and there
dove-cotes nailed under the caves or
reared on p; les.
Two Slavic women, with big-0oned,
grief-wrenched faces, were walking
I'D and down the street, going no
where. They wore great sinawls. and
diagonally across their breasts were
the papoose-Iike bodies of their
babies, wrapped in with knack

RE VISION Of

Of The u s.
Vigorous Fight Waged in
House Over Amend

BY Associates Press.

Washington, Jan. IA vigorous
fight was waged in the house today
over the bill to codify and revise the
penal laws of the United States, with
particular reference to section 10, af-
fecting conspiracies against the civil
rights of citizens.
Messrs, Hughes, of New Jersey, and
Smith of Missouri, offered amend
ments having for their object the ex-
emption of the labor unions from the
operation of the section whenever
such unions declare strikes or boy
colts. Barlott, of Georgia, made a
motion to strike out the whole Sec
ton. These amendments were ali

passed was one by Clark of Missouri.

ached on those little streets where
there was not so much as rag of

been followed out of it, like the
black workings that Quilted the hills.
A hearse drove UP to the corner

There was a coffin to be taken away
and he needed help in lifting it. The
women had to be pushed back while
he worked at closing the lid. Their
cries rose and fell In that half unison
of Slavic peoples which makes almost
ritual of sobbing. The wife stood
on the porch as they drove off; bare
armed, stupid in her loss, her face
knotted; with two little, open-mouthed
children whimpering and plucking at
her apron, and behind them a grand
mother Across the street the tears

WADsWoRTH WILL GO WEST
Probably VIII Accept Call to First
Presbyterian Church of
Pueblo.

Rev Guy W. wadswOrth, D. D., presi-
dent of Bellevue college, probably will ac-
cept the call 10 become pastor Of the First
Presbyterian church of Pueblo Colo. He
is out Of the city on business just now and
cannot be interviewed as to his intentions
Friends in Omaha believe there is no doubt
OF his accepting the call and laying down
the work al Bellevue at the close Of the
present scholastic year.
. The Pueblo church is one OF the largest
and most influential in the state OF Colo
rado and its pRstorate is one of the big
ministerial offices Of the west.
Dr. Wadsworth came 10 Bellevue nearly
three years ago. He resigned the presi-
dency Of Occidental college Los Angeles,
where he had been for eleven years, 10
accept the Bellevue position. which had
been unsuccessfully Administered since DR..
Kerr's resignation a year previous.
Already talk of DR.. wadsworth's sue
cessor is current and one man mentioned
for the place is an able and popular Pres
byterian minister who spent several years
as pastor Of an Omaha church and is now
occupying a larger pulpit than the one
he had here. II is believed that with some
reorganization in the board Of trustees at
Bellevue he would accept the place.
The future OF Bellevue college is regarde
as bright. for the reason that it's identifi-
cation as an Omaha institution gives II
prestige ana advantages over many Of the
small colleges Of the west.
