CLEVELAND. Ohio. July 29.-There are
reasons for believing that the present
western trip of the Nationals will be al
most a. successful as was the previous
one. when not a single game was lost
during the invasion.
On the last trip Griffith did not have

only reliable performers then, though the
youngsters managed to go part of the
route in several games.
Today. however. it is different The trio

COMING EVENT IN SCRANTON.

The musical event or the season
in Scranton, will occur in Town Hall,
of that city, Monday, March IS, when
the Philharmonic Society of New
York will appear in concert, with
the eminent Polish violinist, Jan
Kubelik, as solist. The Philhar-
monic society is the oldest organiza-
tion of its kind in America, and it
has taken a new lease on life, since
the advent of Josef Stransky, it's
present incompatible conductor. The
following bit of history, from the
pen of the well-known Scranton mu-
sician, d. e. Jones, Doctor of Music,
in the Tribune-Republican, is inter-
esting:
The coming of the Philharmonic
society, of New York, Josef Stransky,
conductor, is the next event of note
in this city. Kubelik, the eminent
violinist, will accompany this famous
orchestra. The date Is Monday even
ing, March 18, the place, the Town
Hall. We owe the appearance of this
orchestra to the Century club, which
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1912-03-15

was also instrumental in resusticat-
ing the deplorable condition of the
finances of the local Symphony or
chestra. The moral influence of this
club is potent factor for the musi-
cal good of Scranton. 1t has been
repeatedly stated in this column that
the metropolitan managers of high
class artists and concert givers had
long ago decided to eliminate Scran-
ton from the musical map, and our
fair city was Internationally passed
in the itineraries of these notable
personages. While Wilkes-Barre and
even Binghamton enjoyed and re-
yelled in the presence of great sing
ers and instrumentalists, Scranton
was left severely alone. The prob
lem was difficult one to solve.
Seemingly, Scranton has large mu
steal public, and admittedly it is
good show town. Discussion of the
condition brought many and varied
suggestions, among the most plausi-
bic of which was that we had no
music hall. The Armory was util
lied for concert purposes for some
time, but on one occasion. Mr.. Wal
ter Damrosch brought thither his
New York Symphony orchestra, and
played to a small house. Grieved at
what he considered a total financial
loss, Mr.. Damrosch next morning
issued his pernicious pronunciamen-
to, Never again in Scranton" The
influence of his edict was far-reach-
ing, and we have suffered a musical
famine since.
But the entry of the Gentry club
as sponsor for a musical uplift will
surely bring us unto our own. 1t is
composed of the wealthy and the in
fluential ladies of the city, ladies of
culture who have noted the musical
slough, and are now ready to use
that influence to secure a Just and
equitable adjustment of the deplor-
able conditions. Already this pres
tige has been felt in the noble and
elevating work of it's reconstruction
of the Scranton Symphony orchestra.
At the beginning of the present sea-
son that organization was at the
point of disintegration and all plans
for an active musical season were
abandoned, until the Century club,
with deep sense of municipal pride,
and high regard for the musical tai
ent within our walls, took the helm,
and piloted the Symphony orchestra
into a harbor of financial safety. 1t
was one stroke for which every mu-
sic lover of the city will feel his in
debtedness to the club.
Loudon Charleton, the representa-
tive of the Philharmonics and of
Kubelik, was not slow to note the
activities of the Century club, and he
at once got busy The orchestra had
decided to make a two weeks tour
of the large cities, the first tour in
the history of the society, and Mr.
Charleton came to Scranton, and
succeeded in negotiating concert
on March IS. For this, the Century
club deserves the full and undivided
support of every musician music
student, and music lover in the city
Aside from the fact that this is one
of the greatest attractions ever
brought here, we owe this unques-
toned support to the Century club.

MINERS NOT READY TO ANSWER
OPERATORS
" Bituminous Miners Maintain Peace
With Operators 1t Is Believed An
thracite Men Will Not Go Out,
but Will Go Back to Work.

New York, March 14.-The confer
ence OF the anthracite operators and
representatives of the United Mine
Workers of America, at which the de.
nial of the miners demands and the
reasons therefore were submitted by
the committee of ten operators, lasted
Just long enough for the answer of the
operators, which was quite lengthy, to
be read
President John p White and his as.
sociates then asked to be permitted to
consider the answer until this after
noon, when there will be a further
conference at which the miners will
say whether they will submit a new
proposal or strike.
The operators fatty turned down
the demands that had been submit
ted by President White of the union
The operators declared industrial con
ditions made it impossible for them to
meet any of the demands.
Speaking of the proposed wage scale
an increase of 20 per cent-the opera
tors said they could not meet any
such scale unless the price of coal was
increased 40 cents a ton. "And," it
was added, "the public would not
stand for that"
In the statement issued from the
operators headquarters each separate
demand Of the miners was discussed
and the reasop given for turning it
down.
The answer closes with the following
proposition to the miners:
"Our proposition is that the present
agreement between the anthracite
mine workers and the operators be
continued for and during further
term of three years from the first day
of April, 1912.
1--WE urge careful consideration of
our proposition and its acceptance by
you.
"We trust that your demands will be
withdrawn and that the prosperity
which has so long obtained in the an
thracite region will not be arbitrarily
and unnecessarily disturbed"
While the union representatives
would not commit themselves, it Is un
derstood that they may ask Friday
for further extension of time to con
slider the answer in order to await the
result OF the conferences in Chicago
and Cleveland next week between the
bituminous operators and their miners
1t is known that the heads OF the an
thracite locals Of the United Mine
Workers will scarcely consent to
strike If there is peace in the bitumi
nous districts, whereas united action
of the entire organization claiming to
control half a million miners would be
effective.

dispute has not yet been settled.
