DELICATELY
FORMED

and gently reared, women will find
in all the seasons of their lives, as
maidens, wives and mothers, that
the one simple, wholesome laxative
remedywhich acts gentlyand pleas
antly and naturally and which may
be taken at any time, when the sys-
tenn needs a laxative, with perfect
safety and really beneficial effects,
is Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA.
1t has that true delicacy of flavor
which is so refreshing to the taste,
that warming and grateful toning
to the stomach which responds SO
favorably to its action and the
laxative effect which is so bene-
fetal to the system when, occa-
sionally, it's gentle cleansing is
desired.
The genuine, always bearing the
name of the California Fig Syrup
Co., may be purchased from all
leading druggists in original pack
ages of one size only; price fifty
cents per bottle.

These changes viii permit the use Of
the entire basement of the present build
ing for school purposes. One large room
will be used BY the commercial depart
ment, which has entirely outgrown the
present accommodations. Another large
room viii be devoted to laboratory
for physics, which win be fitted up iii
the modern way and the remainder
of the rooms will be devoted to reci-
tation purposes, the recitation rooms be-
ing at present inadequate. 1t will also
be possible to increase the library room
by one-half its present size.
The present kitchen can, with very
little expense, be made into a labora-
tory for domestic science course, and
viii probably be done as soon as the
demand for such a course warrants the
change.
One-half of the money necessary for
the beginning of the work has been
subscribed, and it is hoped that the
remaining half will be obtained so that
the building may be ready for use next
fall.

HEART AND LUNGS

Surgeons Watch New Apparatus Keer

the combined efforts of science and ma
ture won triumph over death.
The triumph was described as all the
greater because nature was assisted by
humanity devised continuance which
was tried for the first time in this city.
II IS known as the Ellsberg apparatus.
It forces air into the lungs and with
draws it, thus maintaining an artificial
respiration in patient incapacitated
from breathing.
The woman was suffering from reeur-
rent cancer. 1t was necessary to make
an incision which exposed the heart and
left lung. leaving the vital organs abso-
lutely barred to the gaze of the surgeons.
The lung would have collapsed without
the artificial assistance supplied by the
Ellsberg apparatus, which is electrically
equipped to supply air in the requisite
quantity and at the requisite pressure.
Extreme care had to be exercised and
the work was accomplished so success
fully that the lung and the heart main
tained their functions as If fairly normal
conditions existed.
The diseased tissue was removed and
the patient came out Of the anaesthetic
in such condition that the surgeons are
confident of recovery.

.0f Bituminous Coal Fields in
Several States Hinted At
NOT TO Be CALLED STRIKE
Conference of Eight Operators and Eight
Union Officials Was Held at Cleveland
Yesterday, But 1t Came to No
Definite Result.

Cleveland. O., March 2l.-The wag,
/ discussion between the operators anC
| representatives of 100000 union miner,
/ in the btuminous coal fields OF western
| Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinoi,
conducted here yesterday in an effort t.
avert prolonged suspension of bushes,
after April !, was without definite re.
suits.
A probability that all bituminous Goa
mines will be closed after the first oil
the coming month, pending the making
of new two-year agreement, is said To
be imminent. 1t is also said that union
bituminous miners in the central states
would have to quit, entailing idleness on
more than $4,000
1t will not be strike they say. but
merely a suspension OF operations pend
ing negotiations for a two-year wage
scale to follow the present one, which
expires March 81.
The conference OF eight operators and
eight snion officials from each of the
four states was convened by John P.
White. president of the United Mine
Workers OF America, but after brief
session it adjourned until yesterday aft
ernoon because OF the non-arrival OF
some OF the delegates.
Mr.. White announced the miners del
egates had come to meet the operators
on friendly terms, but they intended to
adhere to their demands.
The miners demands as presented
were:
Ten cents ton increase for lump
coal and the mining OF all coal on ton
mage basis.
Seven instead of eight hours a day.
Five hours on Saturday instead Of
eight
Pay every week, instead of two weeks.
The operators, headed by w. X. Fields
of Pittsburg, f. A. Cole of Columbus, o.,
p. II. Penna OF Terre Haute, Ind, and
II. NJ. Taylor Of Chicago, representing
state organizations, informed Mr. White
that the demand equalled 20 per cent.
increase and was excessive.
1t was pointed out by both sides that
strike, or even a prolonged suspension
of business, was not desired.
Miners in several other states, it was
said. would necessarily have to suspend
business from the lack of basis upon
which to fix their agreements, which
also expire April /.
The operators assert that suspen-
sion of the mines which employ union
men would still leave at work about
1000 miners not enrolled by the union
There is a possibility that the btumin-
Gus conference may result in action that
will cause some change in the anthracite
situation. Notwithstanding the anthra
cite operators and workers failure to
agree in the recent New York conference,
no formal strike of the anthracite miners
has been called, and according to Pres
dent White. none viii be called until aft.

bituminous conference, it will deal with

Washington, d. c., March 2l.-The
conference between President Taft and
John Mitchell regarding the threatened
coal strike in the anthracite field has
been postponed indefinitely, according to
an announcement made at the White
House last night. No reason was Civ
en-.
While officials are extremely reticent
as to the postponement of the confer
ence which had been scheduled for Fri
daN or Saturday, it was generally be-
lieved the president and Secretary Nagel

just now might he premature and com
plicate the situation.

hope of the operators and miners reach
