Humorous LEGAL oulhbIe.

Here is a queer case for an action.
A man was insane and determined to
throw himself out OF the window OF
the asylum. He made several at
tempts, and was prevented by the
servants. Put in a new apartment,
he tried it again, jumped out of the
window, fell on the lawn, injured him-
self seriously, but, strange to say,
the shock cured his mental disorder
At once he sued the officers of the
asylum for negligence. The plaintiff
was nonsuited There is a delightful
legal quibble about this, for the pros
and cons are many.

Vote Indication Is
Strike May GoOn

LONDON. April 1.-The English
less willing to strike for the principe
of a minimum wage than their Welsh
the Scottish comrades, are now, as far
the figures of the ballot tell. even less
willing to return to work. The Welsh
men, who We're the backbone of the
original strike, are now voting strongly
in favor of returning to the pits
This change of opinion among the
miners themselves has upset all calcu-
lations.
Returns thus far are Of about 100000
votes. The exact proportion for and
against is not known. The official
count will be made tomorrow by the
executive committee of the Miners
Federation and the result will be an
nounced on Thursday.
The object of the bulk of the English
miners in voting against returning to
work appears to be the opinion that
they are more likely to obtain better
terms from the district boards to be
appointed under the minimum wage act
while they remain on strike than they
would get if they were working.
Those of the miners who are oppos-
ing the return to the pits are doing sc
in direct opposition to the advice of
their leaders, the majority of whom
believe that the men have won a VIC
tory with which they should be salts
fed for the present at least.

maniac, the result of sudden prosperity

was highly elated. After receiving the
money, he decided to invest it in real

him, leaving him broke.
The loss preyed upon his mind to
such an extent he was brought to the

Hard Coal Field
Is Now Tied Up

WILKESBARRE. Pa, April THE
anthracite coal mining suspension order
was generally obeyed throughout this
section yesterday, one of the mines
working, and only the engineers and
pump-runners going to the collieries.
Some of the smaller companies took
imported men behind their stockades,
out no effort was made to interfere
with them and they went unmolested.
Troopers of the State constabulary
patrolled the principal mining towns
during the day, going in patrols of two
and three on horseback, but there was
no call for their services.
II is not expected hat any attempt
will be made today to operate, but
some of the Independent operators and
similar companies may make an effort
to run their washeries.
There is no coal to be had from the
coal companies here. all of them re-
porting that their stock has been sold
out and hat their customers have
several weeks supply stored in their
bins.
Secretary-Treasurer Mack, of the
Wilkesbarre and Scranton districts,
who is now in charge of the $4,000 men
Of the district in the absence of Presi-
dent Dempsey, predicted yesterday that
the operators will offer the men a fiat
increase Of 10 per cent. when the Phila-
delphia conference is held.
From the viewpoint of the officials
a wage increase will not be sufficient
to meet the demands OF the miners.
They will seek more than a mere
money consideration. The union is
willing to waive all other demands II
recognition is conceded. officials OF
the miners believe that the struggle
will settle itself down to the question
Of recognition, the men strongly advo-
eating it on the n side and the opera.
