POLITICAL CRISIS
May Be PreeIpitated In England by
Coal Miners Strike.

LONDON. March 1.-THE settle
ment OF the coal strike seems not un.
likely TO involve a serious political
crisis. The opposition party in the
house OF commons has been expected
to adopt an attitude OF benevolent
neutrality towards the governments
minimum wage bill. The conserva,
tiveorgan 8. however. are beginning
to hint that unless the governments
measure proves to be n strong" one,
such b~enevolence cannot be counted
on. but that the opposition will be
free to treat the bill as a contentious
measure.
AS II Is practically certain that n
bill acceptable TO the labor party
would be distasteful to the nserv
tives. long and heated debates nav
arise before the government is able
TO drive the bill through parliament.
Even II the fate OF the government
itself does not become involved, pre-
dictions are being made that the
strike will be ended by disTntergra-
ton or exhaustion before the bill be-
comes a law.
William J.. Thorne. NJ. p. for West
Ham. declares that IL the strike lasts
six weeks the trades unions OF the
country will be bankrupt.

A Freak Exhibit in Poultry De-
partment of State Fair.

Five kittens and a prize Buff Orping-
on hen who mothers them tenderly
as she would a brood of chicks Is the
freak attraction of the strong poultry
show at the Kansas State Fair. Hun
dreds of people have stopped to see
this unusual exhibition; in fact, it is
the big drawing card of the whole
show for particularly those people
who do not appreciate the fine points
in fowls.
The mother cat was brought along
just for convenience; the kittens, like
all members of the cat tribe, require
a little nourishment once in a while.
The old cat is kept in an adjoining
section of the cage, and can not APP
preciate the situation to the fullest
extent. The hen, too, evidently grieves
because the kittens which have hardly
more than opened their eyes, fail to
feed on the dainty morsels of grain
that with many a cluck she begs them
to swallow
