sue of Wage Contract Is
Being Settled.

Indianapolis.-No anthracite or bit
nminous coal will be taken from the
the mines by union miners as a result
Of the suspension which went into ef-
feet due to wage troubles.
More than 100000 miners, about
i5o. 900 Of whom are in the. anthracite
aeld, will take vacation, which prob
ably will last only few weeks.
The bituminous miners will be out
only long enough for the wage agree
ment. reached in Cleveland, subject to
ratification by the miners by refer
endum vote, which will require about
two weeks, and it is believed the
agreement will be sanctioned by a
large majority of the men.
The suspension in the anthracite
mines will last longer, as no agree
ment has yet been reached. Negotia-
tons will be resumed April 10.
Suspension does not affect all the
mines in the south, as the union is
not SO strong there as it is in the
north. The mines Of Wyoming, Wash
ington, Colorado and Montana also
will not be affected, because the union
contracts in those districts do not ex-
pire April 1.
1t is said the miners will lose ST.
100000 every day they remain out
and the suspension would cause loss
In coal production to the country of
nearly 100000 tons a month.

Sir Frederick Wedmore, q we'll

interesting volume of memories. in
which he tells good things about in
teresting people whom he has met.
One of the best stories is that Of
Queen Victoria and her statement that
she would not meet David" She
evidently championed Bathsheba. The
story runs thus:
In some such terms as the follow
ing, Lady Southampton felt herself
inspired to address the queen one day:

satisfactions of the future state viii

whom we have loved on earth, but our

HISTORIC GUNBOAT TO BE SOLD
Little Undameta Bore Cadet Wood
and Crew to Death.

The sale of the old Spanish gunboAt
Undameta. captured in the Philip.
pines in the war with Spain, has been
recommended by the Navy Depart
ment and the vessel probably will soon
be taken from the naval list.
The Undameta is little craft OF
ITO tons, but she has an interesting
record. After her capture by Dewey
she was sent up a small river with an
expeditionary force under command
of Naval Cadet Wood She ran
aground, and as the tide went out ad-
vantage was taken of the operation
to clean her bottom.
While the crew was at work on
her, Filipinos rushed them from the
brush killed them all, including
Cadet Wood, and sank the Undameta.
Later another expedition went ul
the river, cleaned up the Filipino
insurrectos and raised the little gun
boat.
