MINERS TRYING
TO SETTLE BIC
WAGE QUESTION
TWO OR THREE SESSIONS D
YESTERDAY, BUT NO AGREE. !,
MENT REACHED.
Believed, However, That Trouble viii
Be Amicably Adjusted and That tre
Threatened Big Strike VIII Es
Prevented.

New York, May g. Representatives
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea held another meeting today to
determine what course they would
follow as the result of their rejeo-
tion of the agreement drawn by the
sub committee of the miners and
, coal operators, which was presented
for ratification at a meeting of the
full committees on both sides Of the
controversy yesterday. State Senator
William Green of Ohio, who has acted
as chairman for the miners in the
absence of President White, still be-
/ lieves that settlement will be reach
ed without a strike
The conference today was prepared
to consider two courses of action.
First, should convention Of min
ers be called to approve or disap-
prove the action in rejecting the
agreement of the sub committees, and
second, whether the miners commit
tee should ask for another confer
ence with the operators with tns view
Of obtaining further concessions.
A convention Of miners at either
Scranton or Wilkesbarre would not
only pass on the agreement Of the
sub COMMITTEES, but would consider the
proposition of President Baer of the
Reading company, that the whole con-
troversy be submitted to the surviv-
ing members of the anthracita coal
strike committee of 1903.

day that he considered that the full
committee of miners was morally
bound to stand by the action Of a
sub committee, and that unit! the
matter had been submitted to a ref
erendum vote of the miners the full
committee was in no position to ask
for further concessions from the op-
orators.
Meanwhile the suspension of min
ing in the hard coal region Is con-
tinued.
New York, May 3.--John Mitchell,
former president of the United Mine
Workers of America, and now vice
president Of the American Federation
of Labor, participated today in the
deliberations Of the anthracite mine
workers representatives over the
course to be pursued in dealing fur
ther with the operators for increased
pay, recognition OF the union and 9TH
er changes not included in the ten
tative agreement rejected yesterday,
by the Joint conference OF operators
and miners.
None of the conferees was willing
to discuss the nature of the deliber.
ations, but each expressed the opin-
ion that an agreement of some sort
with the operators would be reached
yet.
Immediately upon the adjournment
of Nthis conference the executive
boards Of the miners organization In
the three anthracite districts, COM
prising thirty-two members, held a
meeting. Mr.. Green, representing
President White of the miners, said
the object of this meeting was to de-
eide whether the miners would hold
convention to pass upon the tenta-
tive agreement, or ask for another
conference with the operators. It
was expected that this meeting would
last well into the afternoon.
John Mitchell declared he had abb
solutely nothing to say regarding the
situation.

ductor came through, nodded at hi1zI and passed on Hope thought he must be some official of the road, and ventured to break the prolonged e. fence with a question:
 Could you tell me how long it will be before we reach Sheridan?"
 She had partially pushed aside her veil in order to speak more clearly. and the man, turning at sound of her voice, took of his hat, his searching eyes quizzical.
 Well, no, I can't, madam" tho words coming with a jerk For I'm not at all sure we'll keep the track Ought to make 1t in an hour, however. if everything goes right. Live in Sherlp dan?"
 She shook her head, uncertain how frankly to answer
 No loss to you-worst place to live in on earth-no exceptions-I know been there myself three months-got friends there Hkely?"
 'T hardly know" she acknowledged doubtfully. q think so, but I shan have to hunt some place in which t1 stay tonight. Can you tell me of some some respectable hotel, or boarding house?"
 The man wheeled about, until he could look at her more clearly
 That's pretty hard commission

tograph Is a peach. Just look here, Bill! What did I tell you? Amt Christie a dead ringer for this girl?"
 You bet she is, Bart" admitted the other in maudltn admiration, ''only, l reckon, maybe some older"
 Well, she ought to be accordin' to Willoughby's story, an them papers bear him out all right, so I reckon he's told it straight-this Phyllis would be twenty-six now, and that's just about what Christie Is. It wouldn't have fit better if we had made it on purpose. If the girl will only play up to the part we won't need any oth- CT evidence-her face would be enough"
 Keith could hear the beating of his own heart in the silence that follow ed. Here was a new thought, a new understanding, a complete new turn to affairs. Christie Maolaire, then, was not Willoughby's sister Hope. The girl he rescued on the desert-the girl with the pleading brown eyes, and the soft blur of the South on her Hps-was not the music hall singer. He could hardly grasp the truth at first, it antagonized so sharply with all he had previously believed. Yet, if this were true his own duty became clearer than ever; aye, and would be more willingly performed. But what did Hawley know? Did he already realize that the girl he had first met on the stage coach, and later fnveigled into the desert, was Hope, and not the music hall artist? He, of course, fully believed her to be Christie Maclaire at that time, but something might have occurred since to change that be- lief. Anyhow, the man was not now seeking Hope, but the other.

as recorded, but slowly, deliberately, piecing the bits together within his mind, blindly feeling his way to a final conclusion, the boy had sunk back upon the bed, overcome with liquor, and fallen asleep. Keith stepped over, and looked down upon him in the dim light. He could recog- nize something of her features in the upturned face, and his eyes softened. There was no use seeking again to arouse him; even had he been sober, he would not have talked freely. Keith lifted the dangling feet into more comfortable position, turned the lamp lower, went out, and latched the door. Two men were tramping heavi- ly up the stairs, and they turned into the hall at the very moment he dis appeared within his own room. He still retained his grasp upon the latch, when a voice outside asked:
 What number did you say, Bill 2s?"
 Keith strengthened up as though suddenly pricked by a knife; he could never forget that voice-it was Flaw ley's.

matfzes It, unul he feduces It to an
 accuracy, especially with reference
 to the laws of nature. He is not par
 ticularly interested in humanity, ex-
 cepting as this humanity serves his
 good Jesus did not do that He had no laboratory, made no experimental tests.
 His only logic was truth in all it's relations, as it loomed large upon the horizon of his soul. Jesus was the post-thinker in Gods out-of-doors. The human heart and men in human rela- tions engaged his thought and atten- tion. The altruistic motive was all ways uppermost. And yet, while Jesus was not distinctly scientist, his psychology is in harmony with the most modern interpretations of the moods of the human mind, and some of the principles of modern pedagogy are very forcibly expressed in the sermon on the mount.
 Jesus is not theologian in the ordi- nary acceptance of that term, nor in the acceptance of the term as it was known in Jerusalem in his day The theologian emphasized the value of law, the logic of the law and the logic of theory. Jesus did not do that Jesus said very emphatically that man was much greater than the law, and much more important than theory; that law was made for man and not man for law, and out of this value he placed upon the human soul he. re- constructed a thought of the father hood of God, the brotherhood of man and the essential value of his own per sonality, which makes his doctrine unique. But human interest was nev- CT sacrificed to the interest of a the ory or an ecclesiastical proposition.
 It is not of Christ, then, the philos- opher, the teacher, the scientist or the theologian, but the Christ who was in terested in the multitude because he believed that he had remedies for their ills, healing for their sicknesses, life instead of death, hope instead of sorrow. I like this thought of Mat thew in introducing Jesus to us in this wonderful sermon: And seeing the multitude. he went up into mountain" The multitude interested him. They were upon his heart. They had left their cares, their tasks, their anxie- ties, their bickerings and had come to hear him.

A Glimpse at Conspiracy.

A Glimpse at Conspiracy.
 Leaning against the inside of his own door, startled by the rapid sequence of events, Keith was able, from different sounds reaching him, to mentally picture most of what oc- cured in the next room. He heard Bill sink down into the convenient chair, and drink from the bottle, while the gambler apparently advanced to- ward the bed, where he stood looking down on its unconscious occupant.
 The fool is dead drunk he de- clared disgustedly. We can't do any thing with him tonight"
 q say-throw bucket water over him." hiccoughed the other genially, "allers sobers me of"
 Hawley made no response, evidently finding a seat on one end of the wash stand
 Hardly worth while, Scott" he re- turned finally. Perhaps I better have some understanding with Christie. anyhow, before I pump the boy any further If we can once get her work ing with us, Willoughby won't have much hand in the play-we shant need him. Thought I told you to keep sober7"
 Am sober" solemnly. "aint had but six drinks; just nat'rly tired out "
 "Oh, indeed; well, such a room as this would drive any man to drink Did you get what I sent you hero after9"

Jesus Was Poet of Human Soul
By Rev. J. EDWARD KIRBYE Pastor of Plymouth Congregational Church,
 Des Meines, Iowa

Robert Browning has sometimes been called the poet of the soul. This has been said of him because he analyses, sees deeply, feels intensely, loves romantically and interprets wisely; but I am sure that Jesus Christ Is a grea -er poet of the human soul l say = Jet, because there is distinct lite rary charm, an intellec- tual heigiI, an imaginative quality, wise insight into the soul of man, in this message which he is speaking.
 He knew men, and that statement from one of the sacred writers has great deal of meaning in it. He knew God more intensely than others. He may have lacked education. He may have associated with the schools in Jerusalem and imbibed their culture. but no one ever emphasized more deeply, felt more intensely, inter- preted more wisely than did Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is analyst of the moods of the soul and offers a solution to it's problems. He reveals to man the heart of the divine.
 He is not a philosopher in the ordi- nary acceptance of this term. A phil Osopher is one who is skilled in so- phistry, in science, one who looks up on reason as the infallible guide, who schools himself to think and practice only at the dictates of cool reason. That is the meaning of the word phil osophy. Jesus did not forsake his reason, but in the sense that we un- derstand philosophy. He did not aim at this achievement, but he did be- ieve that he saw the moods of the soul of man and believed that there were highways of progress out and beyond the reaches of the stoic epi- curean philosophy of his day and he challenged these to an intellectual combat. You cannot fail to see his underlying principles in this sermon. He had thought them out carefully, had seen them in their relations and believed fully on their wisdom and practicability.
 Jesus is not a scientist. A scientist is one who amasses knowledge, se- verely tests 1t, co-ordinates and syste

 Hawley shuff1ed the letters over in his hands, apparently hastily reading them with some difficulty in the dim light.
 Nothing there to give us any help" he acknowledged reluctantly, mostly advice as far as I can see. Damn the light; a glow worm would be better" There was a pause; then he slapped his leg. However, it's clear they live in Springfield, Missouri, and this pho

Scott did not move, perhaps had already fallen drunkenly asleep on his chair, and finally Keith crossed his own room and lay down.

FINGER PRINT SYSTEM
BEING USED BY BANKS

New York.-The finger-print sys-
tenn for the protection of bank de-.
positors is being rapidly adopted by
New York banks. The North Side
bank is the latest institution to adopt
the finger-print system, regarding
which Secretary Arthur Ekirsch said:
1T is not the Bertillon system used
by the police, but was devised by an
Englishman named p. A. Flack, who
for fifteen years was employed by the
British government at Singapore,
India. Instead of the thumb we take
the Imprint of three fingers of the
right hand-the tips of the index,
middle and third fingers.
I'VE have yet to come across a de-
positor who objects to this. In fact
they seem to like the idea immensely

Auto Victims Recovering.

The victims of the recent Rothrock
auto accident are all improving rap
idly, according to the physicians. The
little Roesch girl, one of whose legs
was badly cut, is getting along SO
nicely that the doctors believe that
ultimately she will have free use OF
the limb. Reports on the street were
to the effect that one of Miss Stur-
divants eyes had been removed but
this the physicians brand as false,
declaring Miss Sturdivant to be on
the street and suffering only from a
cut on the face. Mrs. Dupuis, who
sustained a bad cut above the eye and
one below is also much improved.
