had we opened the machine mining

the board OF arbitration" said Presi.
dent John p. White yesterday even,
ing. They agreed 10 give that board
jurisdiction over every phase of the
question. The board found the old
scale equitable except in the matter
of pay for the labOrers. They suggest.
ed an advance in their wages. The
operators then violated their agree.
ment and withdrew. their machines
from all the mines in the first subdis-
trict.
1T is probable that the operators
will attempt to pass this question
and defer it until the rest OF the con.
tract is settled. 1t was the under
standing when we opened negotia-
tons that the subject matter of the
contract was to be taken up just as
we came to it. Unless something of
a radical nature and something I'M
foreseen now comes up we must agree
on the machine question before any
of the other parts of the contract are
taken up.

district will stand solid on the ma.

yours may widely differ and yet we
may love equally we'll
One woman's idea of love lies in alb
solute self abnegation; anOther'S in
jealous appropriation; and yet each wo-
man loves to the limit of her powers
Some people will tell you that there
can be no real love between man and
woman without jealousy, and L am
inclined to agree with them; for L can
not imagine complacently watching the
man you love devoting himself to an
other woman.
When a woman loves a man she
thinks that every other woman must
love him also She likes them to ad-
mire him and envy her, but she does
not want them to love him.
She knows mans vanity, and the
danger line is near when he knows a
woman loves him. He can't resist be-
ing nice to her.
Pity Those Who Never Loved.
The man or woman who has never
loved has but half lived; Fortunately
there are but few of their kind in the
world.
would hate to stand before the re-
cording angel at the end of all things
and be written down as a woman who
had never loved.
When a man loves a woman he has
a great feeling of tenderness for her
weaknesses; he longs to care for her
and protect her
With wOman's love for man there is
a deep maternal feeling. She loves to
make him comfortable, to perform lit
tie services for him; she cannot bear
to see him suffer or be unhappy.
"DOubtfuI" Can Now Be Sure.
After three. years of courtship, I
think Doubtful may be sure that
what he feels is love, and not a pass
ing infatuation.
All that remains is for him to find
out if the lady is of the same mind

woman.
George is as much responsible as

said: George, I think that is your

AS the young man left the room the
sweetheart picked up courage. There
alone with the mother of her adored
she determined to have her say. She
started and stammered for an instant
and the other said 1t was tough night
outside. Finally she was able to bIurt
out:

and We wish TO get married. He told
me TO ask you. He loves me, I am

Hes pretty young" said the mother,
her face growing grave as II came

the apple of her eye. George has
been reared differently from a lot Of

AS she spoke these words she handed
the young woman her hat and helped
her on with her coat, then opened the
door, remarking it was a tough night
outside.

The same sort of. condition prevailed

when the fruit growers and the STOCK

refused TO furnish the special cars re-
