PHILADELPHIA, March 12-With
the position OF the big anthracite coal
operators clearly defined through their
unqualified refusal TO grant any one Of
the miners eight demands, the burden
OF choosing between peace or war to-
day rests on the shoulders Of the mine
workers.
When the conference between the sub

tives found themselves facing the same
infiexibIe determination manifested by
the operators three Ee~rs ago.

agreement for another period OF three
years. The miners must either accept

IT SHOOK HIS NERVES.
An Incident That Made q Man Feel
Queer For Awhile.

'One night" said lawyer, II
was preparing some tedious plead
ings which had to be submitted to
court the following morning, and,
knowing that l would need every
moment of my time, locked my
self in a small private consultation
room in the rear of my suit, where
no chance caller could interrupt me.
The room is very diminutive, with
only one window, looking into a
court, and no furniture except a
table and two or three chairs. Well,
I worked on steadily hour after
hour long after the city had settled
into sleep and silence. The build
ing was so still l could hear even an
occasional mouse scamper across
the floor alone. At last l concluded
the task and, sitting erect in my
chair, began to stretch my cramped
limbs.

AT LANDING TIME.
How the Wise Shepherd Prepares to
Meet Emergencies.


Meet Emergencies.
The thoughtful sheepman and good
shepherd is looking ahead to be pre-
pared to meet emergencies at lanlbins
time. 1t is good plan, says n. A.
Clapp, the successful Michigan breed
er. to have good milking COW freshen
just before lambing time, or If one
has many ewes it will pay to buy one
rather than to go without the new
milk.
Get an old fashioned teapot with a
round spout. Wind the end Of the
spout with some cotton cloth, leaving
the opening free to let the milk out
Then get some rubber nipples at the
drug store and tie one on the end Of
the spout. When the time comes to
need the milk put into the teapot the
new, warm milk and go among the
little lambs Sometimes a fresh ar
rival lacks strength to get up quickly
and take his dinner from the eve
Put the nipple in his mouth and let
revive him.
If the mother Of twins does not
have milk enough for both lambs, one
can help them along by giving the lit.
tie fellows some milk regularly. Sew.
eral ways will be suggested by which
the lambs can be helped along by the
milk from the COW. Don't overlook
this phase Of the preparation. By the
use Of it many valuable lambs can be
raised that would be lost without the
milk
Just before the lambs are expected
either fix some small pens inside the
sheep house or have the material
ready so that impromptu pens can be
put In very quickly when needed. As
soon as an eve shows signs Of lamb
ing put her into the small pen where
she will not be mOlested by the other
sheep and the lamb will not be run
over before he is able to get up. By
confning the eve she will give her
first attention to the lamb. II she is
cases, go away from it. On this ac-
count the lamb will be lost from want
of care and food.
Another advantage Of the small pens
is the ease with which one can keep
the lambs warm and comfortable in
severely cold weather. The sides Of
the pens will keep the wind from
blowing in the sides, but the cold air
from above often chills the little fel-
lows when still moist. A few loose
boa rds can be laid over the pen, some
straw spread on. and the pen will be
warm the coolest nights. I have
saved lambs in that way when the
thermometer was cuddling down to &c
degrees below zero. In the small pen
with low cover the breath Of the eve
makes It warm.

the most carefully managed dairies the

Experiments With Steers.
To determine the best type OF steer
for the feeder Is an important problem
which the Nebraska experiment sta
ton is endeavoring to solve. Last
winter Professor Smith selected thirty
six steers and took the measurements
Of each one in the most minute part1c-
ular. While the experiment has not
been carried to a sufficient extent to
announce positive results, 1t Is interest
ing to note that the steer that made
the best gain in the feed lot was the
one having the largest heart girth In
proportion to his weight. The steer
showing the smallest gain had very
small heart girth While that is the
result Of only one winters work and
cannot be taken as establishing any
positive law, still it looks very much
as II cattle with large lung power,
with good hearts and consequently a
good digestion are best calculated to
make big gains in the feed lot. The
experiments are being continued.
Good Bull Worth Good Care.
If you purchase a good young bull.
don't let him hustle for his living
around a straw stack with the other
cattle. If he Is Of the good growthy
kind, there Is no doubt that he haa

in that little locked room. could
swear that no one had entered. The
window was tightly closed, yet there
right at my feet lay a half con-
sumed cigar with a great live coal
still glowing at the end. It seems
ridiculous to confess, but thrill Of
horror ran through me like gal
vanic shock. A hallucination of any
kind is an appalling thing; it makes
no difference how grotesque or
homely the subject. 1t carries such
frightful suggestion Of breakdown
in ones mental engine room.

Lazy Birds.
The 'mound f.wls' of Australia
and New Guinea construct mounds
Of decayed leaves for their nests.
In these the eggs are laid and cov-
cred over with the same material
The warmth encendered by the de-
composition of the leaves causes the
eggs to hatch, and the young in due
time burrow their way out to LIE
and the open air. These birds are
regarded as the --latest of al tie
featherv kingdom. Next to then
come the common blackbirds Of
America for laziness. These black
birds never build nests Of their OWL,
but lay their eggs in the nests OF
other birds and leave them to be
hatched by foster mothers. This l.

smaller birds, as the blackbird's

Real Cause Of Badness.
Coming in from East Liberty on
a train were two men who appar-
emily were old acquaintances and
who met in a jovial mood. Both
men were quite gray, but each had
luxuriant head of hair. Near
then sat a stout party with SHIN
ing dome that was almost destitute
Of hirsute covering.
| The two friends exchanged face
tious remarks about silvered locks,
then INDUCED in some pleasartries
about the ''thinning of the thatch, y
with casual references to doorknobs
and billiard balls, much to the
amusement Of the passengers, but
to the evident discontinue Of the
baldheaded man.
The talk finally developed into an
argument on the cause of badness,
and after considerable jocuIarity
the pair turned to the pearly pated
stranger, and one said:
''My friend and | have been dis
cussing the cause of badness, but
we can't seem to agree. Would you
mind telling us what you regard as
the real cause of badness"
The stranger wheeled about, eyed
his questioners fercely and snorted
