claim that the demands Of the musicians

dispense with orchestrss in all the

union orchestras to travel with their

with orchestras for dramatic shows and
only use the proposed travelling orches-

BOYS PLANNED
A GOOD TIME

WERE TAKING IN CITY WHEN
OFFICER SURPRISED THEM.

YssteTdas afternoon q constable
from F6If States came TO tliis city
In search of three small boys from the
town Of Amnabelle, who 1t was claimed
had stolen the sum OF $96.O0 and then
came to Fairmont.
The constable was accompanied by
the father of one Of the boys, who
came along so that he could take his
son back with him. Two OF the boys
we're American lads, while the other
was an Italian.
After arriving in this city, the con-
stable found that the boys had spent
Wednesday night at the Italian res
taurant and hotel on Washington
street, and that they had left there
yesterday morning. Search was in
stigated over the city, and one of the
boys was found in the 5 and 10 cent
store on Main street, while the others
weres found at the matinee perform
ance at the Hippodrome.
They had total OF 90 cents re-
naming trom the $4,000, having spent
the remainder of the amount, so they
claimed.
The boys we're taken to their homes
at Annabelle, where they will be look
ed after by their parents.
Ii seems that the boys took the mon
ey from the parents Of one Of the lads,
and came TO this city TO spend IT. and
that they were going to make their
living in this city in some way. al
though they had no definite plans.
The names could not be learned. as
the parents Of the boys wished that
they be not divulged.

Many people OF this city are com,

before local courts against the young
man, but he can not be located. There

All of the inquiries have come
through the London Office of the Con

AS is well known, the miners in Eng
land have voted TO strike, and unless
some adjustment OF the differences
that have arisen between the men and
the operators, the strike will actually
be called on the LIST OF March. This
would mean that all OF the bituminous
mines in Great Britain would cease
operation, and the English govern
ment, MS well as the railroads and in
duslrial corporations in that country,
would have to look to the United
States for their fuel supply.
