TIGER CLAWS TEAR FLESH OF 3
TYR0S IN THE D0KAY CEREMONIAL

The tyros, properly submissive under
the guard of the Arab patrol were eX-
hibited by the light of red fire, and
then led to the Castle hall to see the
tiger and drink the camel's milk.
1t is declared that the ceremonial
left nothing to be desired upon the
part of the tyros whose blistered feet
are yet most tender from their con-
tact with the sands. Incidently the
ceremonial was most notable for a
side degree administered to Ed Brad
bury, votary from eKndrick, by the
tyros, who upon hearing his tale of
bloodthirsty horror awaiting them, got
some satisfaction in advance by admin
istering the Puritan treatment for a
village scold, and giving him proper
ducking.
Following the ceremonial the vot-
aries sat down to an elaborate ban
guet served by the Pythian Sisters in
the banquet hall of the Pythian Castle.

Over the hot sands of the desert of

of Omar Alkayami and were initiated
into the Dramatic Order of Knights

accompanied by red fire and circus

ring-leaders. Starr is a yegg-man,

1t will cost the taxpayers of Moscow
$40, 1920 to pay for the intersections
of streets in case the paving district
proposed by the city council shall be
adopted and the paving ordered in.
This is the estimate of City Engineer
Smith.
In his figure the city engineer adopts
$2.10 as the base cost of paving per
square yard, thus making sure that
his figures are high enough to cover
the cost of any paving determined up
on. His estimates show that there
are 1927 square yards to be paved, at
that cost, and the total expense for
pavement will be $27,797.70, upon this
basis. There will be 2206 yards of ex-
cayation, at 75c or $1654.50. To this

TWO YEARS. PEACE
IN SOFT COAL MINES

INDIANAPOLIS, April 15.-Provis-
ion for two years peace in the bitum-
inous coal field was made today in the
approval by a referendum vote of the
miners on the bituminous wage scale
compromise.
The agreement thus reached be-
tween the miners and operators pro-
vides for an increase of five cents a
ton for mining screen coal and three
cents a ton for uncreened coal. All
helpers, drivers and other men en-
ployed in the mines are to receive an
increase of 5A per cent in their
wages.

Oily mpic, but later were transferred to
the Steamer Baltic, and the latter yes-
sci is now steaming for New York.
Reports as to the accident are
meagre. 1t is not known just how it
occurred but it is believed that the
fact that the Titanic is the he>largest ves-
sci in the world is the only thing which
enabled her to stand the shock and
prevented a great loss of life.

cidentals, bringing up total as be-
fore indicated.
The figures of the city engineer show
that the improvement bonds would
cost less than 1-10OO of the taxable
valuation of a piece of Moscow prop
erty. His statement is:
Last total assessed valuation, ST.

Five per cent interest on $30,7 20,

results in a general tax levy of $4,000

trict. The above taxation does not
provide a sinking fund out of which

Besides the wheat sold by Mr.

The wheat was Red Russian of fair
quality, and included both the 1910 and

Though the final vote was not an
nounced the indications are that the
miners were practically unanimous in
accepting the compromise.
Indications are that 100000 miners
favored the. compromise and $4,000
opposed it. The compromise increases
the payroll of the bituminous operators
by $16,25O,O0O annually.
AS soon as the result of the vote
is formally announced the different
districts will sign their contracts with
the operators and the suspension of
mining will end.

April 10 for New York on her maiden
voyage. She is a White Star ship oi
46,328 tons.
The Titanic has crew of 500 and
carried more than 1900 passengers
She carried S. 5,OOO,OOO in bonds and dia-
mOnds.
| Among the passengers were Major
Archie Butt, military aide to President
Taft, Mrs. John Jacob Astor, Alfred
! Gwynne Vanderbilt and other noted
, persons.
Wireless reports of the Titanic say
that all women and children were
| p9aced in lifeboats, and these are ready
to be lowered at moments notice.
This will not. be done unless the
vessel actually begins to sink. The
weather is reported calm and fair. The
Titanic's pumps are working in good
order.
The forward holds are full of water
but the water-tight compartments are
holding and if they can stand the
strain it is believed the vessel will
reach shore safely.
Immediately on receipt of the news
of the disaster, the Allen liner .'Vir-
ginian" started for the rescue. The
Virginian is later reported to have
lost the Titanic after learning that the
women and children are in life boats
ready to be lowered.
1t is believed the wireless on the
Titanic worked badly. Later however,
a message was received here from the
Titanic saying that she is still afloat.
The Virginian is the fastest of the
Allen liners and is putting forth her
greatest speed to reach the disabled
liner.

other passengers are Benjamin Gug-

the remaining seven from Philadelph-
ia. The returns received up to noon
today indicated that M. Clyde Kelly has
defeated Congressman Dalzell for the
nomination for congress in the 18th

Returns show Kelly's majority over
Dalzell to be 300 to 400. The Pennsyl-

Independent than ever before. Near
ly all the republicans nominated are
opposed to Penrose.
Revised advices from all over Penn
