FIXING WAGE SCALE.
Committee of Illinois Miners and
Operators Trying to Get Together.

tees of the Illinois miners and the IL
linois coal operators association went
into joint session today to take steps
toward a settlement of the wage ques-
ton and the payment of shot firers
The question of the wage increase is
expected to be disposed of quickly
but the point upon which both sides
are obstinate is the one which relates
to the payment of shot frers. At
present the miners pay for all shot
firing and the operators maintain that
the present custom is a just one. The
operators maintain that should the
demand for an increase of 10 cents
per ton be granted, together with the
proposition of paying for the shot fir
ing they would be compelled to meet
an extra annual expense in this state
of S140OO.O0O.

Men who feel that their vitality is
slipping away; that the vim and energy
that thew formerly put into all their
work is lacking; that ambitious inn
pulses and clever ideas do not come as
they used to-are the kind OF men that
need Mi-o-na.
These are the kind of men that a
months treatment will put in fine
shape.
Besides being Il peerless remedy for
Indigestion Mi-o-na is a most pronounce
ed tonic. 1t makes the skin clear and

causes dull eyes to brighten.

But the newly elected civil service
commission had a meeting last even
ing and from the declarations made by
the members each member of the COM

engineering and mechanical work.
G. G. Blakely claims that he was at
one time assistant division engineer of
the Louisville & Nashville railroad. He
also work as locating engineer for

this fame he graduated from a proTni-

worked at many trades of a mechani-
cal nature. He is said to be a bridge
builder of considerable experience. He
worked as a carpenter and house build

Charles H. Kutz is principal of a To-
Deka school but that is but a part of
the work he has done in life. He says
that he is a graduate of a civil engi-
neering school and has had many years
of experience in the preparing of esti-'
mates
Thus it has developed that the city
commissioners were wrong when they

they got three all around engineering
men of experience. There SEEMS to have
