ULTMATUM OF MINERS.

WILKES BARRE, Pa, May 12- Ten per cent flat increase in wages, recognition of the union and restora- ton of the sliding scale are said to be the terms of the ultimatum that the anthracite miners who are gathering here today will present to the operat- ors. These demands, it is believed, will be ratified by the convention at it's session tomorrow, and if not accepteI by the operators a strike will follow.
 Four hundred local unions of the three districts directly involved have each appointed a delegate to the con- Vention. The question in dispute will be thoroughly discussed and it is ex- pected that the convention will take a final vote on each proposition to- morrow
 It is intimated. however. that even should a strike be voted by the con- vention here it's actual inauguration may be postponed for weeks and pos sibly months pending further efforts of the committees of operators and miners to get together and agree upon a peaceful settlement. According to one influential delegate, the convention may appoint new mediators to treat with the operators with the view of averting a strike
 It is declared that in case of a strike the anthracite coal now in storage in all the anthracite region would pro- vide only a three weeks supply. In view of this fact the miners believe they have the upper hand and there is grim determination among them. They are set in their opinion that they have not been given a square deal by the operators. and most of the delegates declare that a four years agreement is entirely too long a time to work with the slight concessions offered them.

Women who bear children and re- main healthy are those who prepare their systems in advance Of babys coming. Unless the mother aids nature in it's prenatal work the crisis finds her system unequal to the de- mands made upon 1t, and she is often left with weakened health or chronic ailments.

however, the real beauty in the entire af

all concerned.
While Commencement week is OF so
much importance and significance to the

1t is a great mistake to encourage our
students to believe that the 8th grade
marks the completion Of sufficient train
ing for life. The work done in the grades
offers the foundation upon which to build
broader culture and training which give
power and ability under the RESPONSE
bilities of life. This broader culture
and this training may fail to give the
students all the practical knowledge OF
life but it will give them the ability to do
things and this ability will make it posi-
BILE for these things to be done quickly,
Because of the many social features
incident to the closing Of school Mr.. and
Mrs. Ward found it necessary to hold the
class reception on Tuesday. Because it
was a school night the reception was not
continued until the wee hours" but the

The locks are supposed to be non- picka5 5le, but evidently that is not the case After getting outside the cages they tied bedding together and slid to the ground through a hole in the wall of the jail, made when there was a delivery some weeks ago. and had not been mended
