London Feb 21.-Another confer
ence of representatives of the 100000
coal miners of England, Scotland and
Wales with agents Of the coal COM
panies and the government, will be
held today in an effort to settle the ex-
listing difficulties growing out of the
demand of the miners for an increase
in wages.
AS a result of the recent ballot Of
the mines of the United Kingdom on
about universal stoppage of work in
the mines of the United kingdom on
February 20 unless the mine owners
accept the principle Of minimum
wage for all men and boys.
Every effort will be made to adjust
the difference today for a strike of the
miners would result in tying up thou
sands of British industries, throwing
thousands out of employment and
causing much suffering, in addition to
probable riots and bloodshed.

Notwithstanding the threaten ing weather, and the heavy shower afterward, there was a good crowd at the Gun Club Shoot Sunday. The first squad shoot through in a downpour of rain and finished when it was very difficult to ascertain whether or not each target was broken. However, the best scores were made by the first squad, Cooley breaking P out of 25. The black sky and uncertain light after the storm made shooting very difficult.
 The DuPont 1912 Gun Club Trophy was awarded to Jess Hulet who finished well in the lead with the score 176x200: Rencher was second, score 170 and McCleve third, 169. Aside from winning the Trophy. Hulet jumped into first place in High Average, by the narrow margin of 3pct.

 A case that reused great in- terest in medical circles, as well a good deal of amusement, was an action brought a good many years ago by a surgeon at Lon don hospital, against a colleague for the loss of an ear.
 A diseased ear was to be amputated. The patient, strug- gling under chloroform, was be- ing held down. Just then the lights went out. The patient fell off the edge of the table in his struggles, and the junior surgeon leant over after him. The operator felt an ear in his hand, and thinking he might not get another opportunity, the pat tent being so abnormally restless, made one swift, neat slash. The operation was successful, but the ear was the wrong man 's!-Lon- don Answer.
