Of Mrs. Simpsons father, DR.. Williams,
who has been practicing physician
in that village for number of years.
His death was sudden and resulted
from an attack of apoplexy. He ate a
hearty dinner and supper and then
complained of feeling sick. Immedi-
ately he was seized with the attack
and died before a physician could
reach the home. He was over 20 years
of age and is survived by his wife and
one daughter, Mrs. Simpson.

mime CONFEREES
ARE HOPEFUL Of
AVERT|NG STRIKE
Both Sides Ready for Sus-
pension of Work to
Allow Vote.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, March 26.-Hope-
ful of an agreement that may prevent
the ordering of strike in the soft coal
fields, sixty-four operators and miners
today resumed their wage-scale DELHI
erations here in joint conference. Bon
sides appeared to be resigned to an al
most certain suspension of mine opera
tions beginning April l, for thirty or
sixty days, to allow a referendum vote
on the results Of this conference.
The miners and operators remained
firm in their announced positions, neith-
er side yielding a point in the workers
demand for increased pay. President
| White, of the United Mine Workers,
fears that strike in the hard coal
field cannot be averted, conferences in
New York having failed to reach a
wage agreement. He was strongly In
favor of affecting a new wage-scale
here for the bituminous miners to pre-
went a strike in all coal mines in the
country, but said he would not recedG
from the miners demand for the mine
trun basis of payment and a general
Increase in wages.
! Charles Z. Maurer, of Cleveland; J.
! G. Kolsen, of Terre Haute, Ind, and
other operators declared again that II
was their final rejection of wage de-
mands that caused a recess of the con-
ference here last Friday night. The
operators plea is that oraise miners
wages now would force many mine
owners into financial difficulties.
