STRIKE OF MINERS
NOT ANTICIPATED
Men Believe They Are Not Pre-
pared For Long Struggle.

Scranton, Pa, March 24.-With the
preliminary work of organizing the
tri-district convention of the anthra-
cite mine workers out of the way, and
with the delegates ready to take up
the question of new agreement with
their employers, the impression grows
among those who are watching the
developments in the hard coal fields
that the mine workers will not call
strike unless something not now on
the surface develops.
National President T. L. Lewis pre-
sided, and in opening the convention
made a brief speech in which he ap-
pealed to the men to stand together
and to carry into effect any policy
that may be decided upon in the con-
yention. Several committees were
created, the most important of which
was that appointed to define the pol
icy of the anthracite mine workers.
President Lewis was named by the
convention to head the committee,
the other members being the officers
and national board members from the
three districts.
AS already stated. the feeling here
abouts is that the men will not go to
the extreme of calling a strike. An
inkling of what is to come if a ques-
ton of strike is brought before the
delegates was had in the convention,
when one delegate said he was unin-
structed, and that his people are un-
prepared for strike, while another
said that he had been instructed to
stand by the leaders in whatever they
advise.

QUILTING PARTY.
This Old Fashioned Amusement At
fords Lots Of Fun.

tOt6o IOeo "
Old fashioned parties always mean
a vast deal Of fun and enjoyment, and,
as a rule, they are more successful
than the ordinary affair Of today.
Every one appreciates a change from
cards and similar forms of amusement.
and for this reason an old fashioned
quilting party will have more than it's
share of success. The hostess must
try to borrow an old quilting frame if
she has not one herself. and on this
the quilts must be stretched ready for
tying when the guests arrive. After
the quilts have been tied refreshments
must be served in the dining room
The table should be covered with a
snowy cloth that has been folded and
refolded and pressed hard, so that
when it is placed on the table the
small squares will show up distinctly
to simulate an old fashioned quilt de-
sign. In the center of the table have
square of delicate lavender material,
the edges of which have been neatly
hemmed. Decorate this centerpiece in
each corner with tiny square of dain-
ty Powered chintz. Use place doilies
Of the same lavender material and
decorate each dolly with small dia-
mond patchwork design of chintz.
Use silver or glass candlesticks. and
shade them with lavender shades
crowned with little wreath of pale
blue forgetmenots. If you procure
the right shade of lavender you will
find that the blue and lavender will
blend exquisitely. At every corner
have little lavender sprigs and forget
menots. Pin guest cards to the bou-
quets with long quilting needles
threaded with lavender ribbon, and
write on the cards some bit of quaint
stilted sentiment.

JOIN THE PROCESSION.

The campaign for new members to
the Commercial Club and for the col
lections Of dues for the current year
began this morning. Several are al
ready at work trying to add to the
list. The campaign is made. doubly
interesting by the offer of diamond
pin by the President, Mr.. C. H. Bow
en-, to the member who secures the
most new members and collects the
most in current dues.
The club should number 600 mem
bers this year. 1t has now on its
roll a larger proportion of the good
citizenship of this city and county
than any other club in any city of
the State
But we should not be satisfied with
that. We want every citizen of the
county enrolled. The club has prob
ably done more for the upbuilding of
Winchester and Clark county than
any other single influence. 1t ought
therefore to be our duty and our
pleasure to aid it bysalI the means in
our power.
