between the best marksmen of the
academy. The letter Is as follows:
Il take the greatest pleasure in
congratulating you upon winning
the Presidents match of 1909, one
OF the premier individual rife events
of the year. While upon the face OF
things 1t may appear that a sailor
has little use for skill with the rifle.
yet outside Of the actual value OF
such skill as military accomplish
ment, the records Of the Navy show
that ability to use the small arm

direct effective fire from the big

U. G. CLICK Is CHARGED
WITH SOLICITING FUNDS

Ulysses Grant Click was arrested
yesterday afternoon by Deputy United
States Marshal Mitchell on a charge
of soliciting political contributions
from Federal employees on or about
April. 1907. He was held by Commits
sioner Mahaffey in $4,000 bail for a
preliminary hearing on Thursday
morning. The penalty for the offense
is not over three years in prison, not
over $1,000 fine or both.
The warrant was sworn out by John
]. Doyle, secretary of the United States
Civil Service Commission, who has been
here frequently during the past few
months conducting an investigation. IL
is alleged that Doyle recently secured
evidence tending to show that Click
had solicited from Federal employees 2
per cent. Of their salaries for political
purposes.
Mr.. Click is represented by Herbert
II. Ward
Mr.. Doyle was in the city since We'd
nesday and some of the Federal em-
ployes at the postoffice We're wonder
ing what he was doing here. He was
one of the three commissioners who
were here sometime ago making an in
vestigation of the political conduct Of
the government employees. relative to
contributing TO campaign funds. Mr.
Clicks name was frequently mentioned
in the different hearings that were held
but as nothing was heard since, il was
thought that the affair was over and
there would be no further action
taken.

WEATHER FOR MAY

William Mitchell. Of No. 221 Wood

er for Moving Day, March 25th. Nh
Mitchell said this morning that the
weather would continue mild until the
25th and then turn cold and continue
so until the 2Sth. He says there will
be some cool weather and frosts in
April and May. He predicts overcoats
will still be worn in May.
Persons before going TO work consult
Mr.. Mitchell as to whether or not to
take an umbrella. He is usually able
to tell them whether a rain is due
or not. Mr.. Mitchell learned to be a
weather prophet while farming in Mil
Creek hundred, where he lived most
of his life.

BY United Press Leased Special Wire
PHILADELPHIA, March 12.-With the
position of the big anthracite coal oper-
ators clearly defined through their un-
qualified 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 mineworkers.
When the conference between the sub
committees OF the opposing forces was re-
sumed to-day, the miners representatives
found themselves facing the same infieX-
ible determination. manifested by the OPP
orators three years ago. President Baer
and his lieutenants. had nothing TO add
TO or retract from their offer to continue
the present agreement for another period
of three years The miners must either
accept or reject.
II was we'll understood, that the miners
delegates have been empowered TO make
certain concessions, and 10 reach an
amicable agreement, with the operators,
but not at the sacrifice of the demand for
union recognition, the eight hour day or
the clause limiting the loading Of the
mines by the operators with their own
contract miners. Nor can the delegates
