SITUATION TODAY is
VERY MUCH IMPROVED
Eight -hour-day" Will Be Gel

Trouble May Be the Out
groWth-Wires Are Up.

Jasonville, Ind. March 31.--Every-
thing Is quiet today in the mining
field. The Hunyaks who FLASHED
with the Americans have evidently all
decamped, or are in hiding. 1t is ex-
pecfed the mines affected will be able
to resume Friday with American min
ers, who have been advertised for.
There is still strong anti-foreign
feeling and there is some apprehension
as to the developments tonight or to-
morrow, which Is the annual eight
hour day. celebration. Sheriffs OF
Greene and Clay counties are on the
ground with large posses and the mill
tia at Terre Haute Is in readiness to
assemble on a moments notice. Two
hundred American miners left Linton
for Boyle mines. The telephone wires
are working and situation is well in
hand, should trouble break out. I'm
less trouble spreads to other mines in
the district confidence is felt by au-
thorities that the situation can be con-
trolled.
Frequent Clashes for Weeks.
There have been frequent clashes be-
tWCCu tAC LWO C0Apo III IliC i0SI lew
weeks, many being wounded in street
fights. in which fists, guns and knives
were used.
The trouble assumed alarming pro-
portions Sunday night. when q mob of
Hungarians invaded the camp OF the
Americans and began firing into all
of the boarding houses and homes. The
Americans. who at that time were un-
armed, we're forced to leave the camp,
and take refuge In JasOnville.
Angered by this attack. the Ameri-
cans armed themselves and, gathering
some men from Jasonville, returned to
the camp Monday night, determined to
drive the foreign workers from the
place. A committee of the Americans
was sent to the Hungarian camp ahead
Of the main body to attempt to get the
aliens to leave without the use of force.
When the members of the committee
came within gunshot distance Of the
boarding houses in which the aliens
were quartered they were met by sew
eral volleys of shots from the guns Of
sheir opponents. One American miner
was perhaps fatally hurt in this first
fire.
The committee then retreated to the
main body OF the Americans and all
began new attack on the barricaded
foreigners. More than 200 shots were
fired BY the two forces and eleven men
were injured during the fracas.
The Americans had taken refuge in
nefghboring houses, and all night
there was frequent firing.

WILL INVESTIGATE
OFFICERS RECORD
! Police Board to Hold a Meet
ing Friday Night.

The police board will hold a meet
ing Friday evening. An investigation
of the past record of one Of the Off
GERS will probably be made by the
board Other matters coming be-
fore the board include routine and
new business. One of the matters
for consideration will be the advisa-
bility of shifting the officers to new
beats every three months. This prac-
tice has been in vogue for some time
and has caused considerable dissatis-
faction among certain citizens. The
police themselves are not in all III
stances in perfect harmony with quar-
terly shifts.

Under the new regime in the Turkish
empire the restrictions on electrical
apparatus, of all classes, have been re.
moved. The government is planning
to establish telephone service similar
to the telegraph service. This is a
very interesting illustration of the ad-
vance of the Turkish government
which heretofore has had a particular
dread of electricity. owing to its con-
nection with the word dynamo. which
obviously must have something to dc
with dynamite.

be presenting play that has never
been played here and this fact, togeth-
er with the prominence of the play it

The North Bros, will be welcomed
with packed house Monday night.
Mr.. North's highclass performances
of past seasons, has left such an
impression on local theatergoers that
there can be little doubt about the sue
cess of his engagement here. Mr..
North's offers are unusual, and coming
now with his great record of past sea-
sons. should be appreciated by the low
ers of good comedy and music. as they
are aware that there has never been
any better productions given in this
city, even by high price attractions.
All the plays that the company will
put on there are new and the only
popular price company playing them.
You will not only see a first class play
but a vaudeville show besides. The

Richmond Polo Team Defeat
ed Last Evening by the
New Castle Bunch.
HAMILTON LOSES A GAME
LEAGUE STANDING.
New Castle 8; Richmond 3.


The locals played like amateurs
again at New Castle last evening and
were easily defeated. Nolan, first
rush for the New Castle team, was the
star and the locals defeat was largely
due to the efforts of the former Rich
mond boy. In fact the locals were
kept on the defensive throughout the
contest. Houghton was not in the
game, Bulla and Sharp doing the
rushing. The locals were guyed re-
peatedly throughout the contest by
Tom Ritter and his bunch of rooters.

FAULTLESS PRESCRIPTION
No Remedy for Stomach Distress
and Indigestion SO Perfect.

A scientific prescription for dysrep-
STA put up in small tablet form and
called Mi-o-na is making thousands or
quick and lasting cures throughout
America.
There is no stomach disease (even
catarrh Of the stomach) that it is not
guaranteed to cure, and The Lee a.
Osgood co. has so much faith in Nil
o-na for stomach disorders of all
kinds that they win refund your money
if it does not cure.
Mi-c-na, the faultless prescription,
stops sour stomach, belching of gas,
distress after eating, heartburn, BILL
iousness and nervousness.
. II is well worth a trial by any read
er of The Bulletin who suffers from
any stomach disturbance. 1t contains
ingredients that not only give relief
but that act on the stomach so bene-
ficially that ia a short time the flabbv.
tired out walls Of the stomach regain
their strength and activity.
Try Mi o-na for a week misery will
change to happiness; despair to hope,
dull eyes to be bright. and 9ou VIII
yourself wonder why you suffered so
long with such remarkable prescrip-
tion at hand.
And only 80 cents for a large box
