Profits From Anthracite MIninu,

The following statement has been is
sued on behalf of the anthracite oper-
ators' committee OF Tennessee:
Many n statements as to
the profits from anthracite mining
have appeared within the last few
days, apropos Of the present labor
situation. For example, II has been
published that the net profits of the
anthracite mining companies are esti-
mated at $5,000,000 a month. Such
guesses, or estimates of profits are
gross exaggerations and are calculated
to mislead the pubic at a time when
a general wage increase is demanded
by representatives of the mine work
ers.
I'm the last year for which COM
plete figures are available the net
profits from mining Of six of the larg-
est companies, which produced about
two-thirds Of the total output, AVER
aged Is 4-10 cents per ton This rep
resents less than a moderate return
upon the capital invested in the mines
and equipment. The small profit vas

vailing In this particular period; 1t is
the normal result from the operation

Grand Elks Parade Will
Be Something Worth Seeing

II there is one thing that Is surely
going to please the antlered visitors
at the Eks' convention it will be he
novel parade that has been planned
by the committee arranging for that
feature, H. b. Asheiman is chairman
OF the committee and neither he nor
his corps of able assistants have left
q stone unturned to give everyone a
treat in the way of unique parades.
The Elks' parade Is going to be
something entirely out Of the ordinary
and win contain many features that
have neve before been seen In this
part of the country and several ideas
that are original with Mr.. Ashelman
and his committeeman.
First will come President Page and
other officials of the state association
marriages, to be followed by the
esquire bearing a large-sized sceptre
M other officers of Fargo lodge No.
$50. The next feature OF the parade
will be five men carrying a large
gold star, one Of the emblems of the
order.
Four men will come next carrying
a large Bible on an altar bearing
the working tools of the lodge laid on
the cover Of the Bible. After this
feature twenty or thirty men will
bear a large American flag, thirty
feet long, which will conclude the en-
blematic features of the procession.
The next in line will be about six
teen little girls featuring some OF the
teachings and expressions Of the B.

great procession are phil Farnham,
George Radford, Harold Sorenson,
Frank McKone, Ernest r. Orchard,
Herbert Mott and Art Smell.
The executive committee Of the
Elks decided to offer two large
loving cups for first and E G
ond prizes for the lodge outside
Of Fargo that makes the best appear
ance In the big parade during the
state association meeting of the order
in Fargo, June 4 and 5. The awards
will be made on the basis OF the lodge
having the largest percentage Of its
membership in the line up. The count
will be made on the figures furnish
ed by each lodge to the grand secre-
tary at the end Of the official year,
April /.
With the awards on a percentage
basis, the large lodges will have no adj
vanta9es over those with a smaller
membership.
The cups are magnificent affairs,
the n for the first prize being es-
pecially large and attractive in de-
sign. The winner will have something
Of value and beauty TO add to the lodge
collections.
It was first planned to secure an
Elk head for the winner, but nearly
all the lodges have those and the
change was made to the loving cups.

p. o. EIks. Mrs. G. p. Brown has
kindly consented to assist Mr.. Ashel-
man and the committee in arranging
this feature of the parade and it will
be conducted under her direction.
Then win come the various lodges
of North Dakota, comprising the state
association. First will be Grand Forks
lodge with 'Big Bill,,' the great Elks
that the brothers up the river tool
as q prize at St Louis. on q hoat.
jamestown lodge will be next, follow
ed by the lodges from Crookston, Mi
not, Valley City, Dickinson, Fergus
Falls, Bismarck, Williston, Devils
Lake and Mandan.
Between the divisions of the Wis
iting lodges, each marching in bodies,
viii be grotesque figures, SO as to
make the procession laughable to the
spectators along the way. One OF the
chief g~rotesque features that has been
planned will be Baby Leech, which
will furnish merriment to everybody.
Fargo lodge will be the last in the
procession. It's members will form In
groups around the letters, 'sB. P. o,
and E." and march in that fashion,
raising the letters every half square
so as to get the full effect OF the
design OF the figure. This is Mr..
Ashelman's own idea and Is one that
will doubtless be borrowed widely
throughout the antIered realm of the
country at future conventions,

a Woman on Woman.

The American: Ida M. Tarbell, writ
ing of The Homeless Daughter, makes
the following comments on the right
girl who leaves home and goes out
into the world to earn a living:
The gnawing loneliness of the girl
who has left home to make her way is
one of the most fruitful causes of the
questionable relations which well-born
girls form more often than society
realizes. The girl seizes eagerly every
chance for com~panionship or pleasure.
Her keen need OF it makes her over
appreciative and under-critical. More
over, she has the confidence of ignor-
ance. Most American girls are brought
up as IL wrong-doing were Impossible
to them. Nobody has ever suggested
to them that they have the possibility
Of all crimes in their makeup! Parents
and teachers ordinarily have extraordi-
nary skill in eyading, but little skill in
facing, the facts OF life.
"Disarmed by her ignorance, the girl
goes out to a freedom such as no coun-
try has ever before believed it safe to
allow the young, either girl or boy.
This freedom is. of course, the logical
result Of what we call the 'emancipa-
ton OF women 1t is the swinging of
the pendulum from the old system of
c~haperonage and authority. The weak
point lis in the fact that the girl has
not knowledge enough for her free
dom. 1t is not a return of the old sys-
tenn Of guarded girls which is needed,
That is impossible under modern con-
ditions, out of harmony with modern
ideas. The great need is that women
Of the country realize that freedom
unaccompanied by knowledge is one OF
the most dangerous tools that can be
put into a human beings hands. The
reluctance Of women to face this fact
is the most d~iscouraging side Of the
woman question.
''The girl who goes forth should go
armed with knowledge. She should
feel the pull of the home in every
moment of loneliness so strong that
she is literally jerked back when she
is ready to slip. This hold Of the home
is no chimerical thing. 1t is a positive
living reality. The home has a power
OF projecting itself into the lives OF
those who 90 out from 1t. 1t is where
a sense of an uninterrupted relation
a certainty that she is a part Of that
group and that achievement, that she
is only carrying on, ~enlarging, helping
to extend, beautify and ripen its work
that she is not homeless. Nothing can
so hold her in her isolation as that
sense"

felt perfectly normal, and slept sound
ly the following night.
Not Like Alcoholic lntoxieation.
The intoxication is by no means the
same as that produced by alcohol.
The intellect remains clear; speech,
though difficult, is not impeded or abb
normal, though the voice sounds
strange and far away to the speaker.
The instability when standing Is sim
liar, but there is distortion OF vision,
and the tendency to fall is always
backward The nausea which often
follows opium or alcohol intoxication
is entirely absent, and there Is no exx-
cessive thirst. In conclusion I want to
say that I would not care to repeat
the experiment with a dose exceeding
four mescal buttons. The muscular
paralysis is so complete hat one
might a breathing, and thus put
a tragic ending to the experiment

and, most curious of all, purple and
gold. The latter weer always in
bands, which burst forth in ribbon
like steamers and suddenly disap-
peared, to give way to other coIors.
One of the last visions / recall was
that OF a vast field of golden lilies,
each pouring forth a stream Of pur-
pie flame. This was an exceptional
case, for most of the visions were not
associated with familiar objects, but
were simply a mass Of twisting, undu-
lating, luminous objects, something
like snakes.

fortunate than others, in that the
ture of their property permits of less
than that obtained from business of a
far more stable character. The Iarg-
est producer OF anthracite ended its
last year with a deficit.
In its official report the strike m
mission Of 1902 called attention to the
violent fluctuations that had char
acterized the anthracite industry. An
thracite mining has always been a
hazardous financial undertaking. The
advantages that have come from the
steadiness Of recent years have been
more than counter-balanced by the
heavily increased cost of mining. This
cost is mounting a by year, despite
the introduction Of all modern econo-
mics.
1T should be borne in mind, by those
who seek to estimate profits, that coal
once mined is gone forever-it Is not
like a crop that is harvested year after
year. The expensive plant at a col
liery-the shafts, the elaborate equip
ment for preparing the coal after it is
mined-is practically useless scrap
when the coal deposits at that place
are exhausted, and it's redemption year
by year has to be included in the cost.
As the deposits in one locality after
another are exhausted. the mining
companies have to make new openings
and provide new plants"

The Hiahest selentifie Station.

The Argonaut: The highest scien-
tihc station in the world stands on
the summit Of Mount Misti, an ex-
tinct volcano in southern Peru. The
altitude Of this station is 1890 feet
above sea level. No one lives at the
station. No one could live there, as
the air is too ARE and cold. The
thermometer on the top of MIST often
falls to 20 degrees below zero. Once
a month an observer climbs UP to the
station to take the recordings Of the
instruments. 1t occupies two days to
climb up and two days to climb down.
