descent, each diver employs fat,
oval stone, weighing 30 to so pounds.
The stone is perforated at one end to
receive a rope, and close to the stone
a kind of stirrup is made in the rope
to accommodate the divers foot. The
stone is suspended at depth OF to b
feet below the surface by means OF q
cord attached to an outrigger.
When ready to descend, the diver
places one foot on the stone, the otn'

with them, though they refuse to
recognize the union as an organ
ization.
Every vantage point is being
seized by the employers. 1t is be-
lieved. they will make several
concessions if they are spared the
humiliation of having to recog-
nize the union. The latter con-
sideration, however, is one of the
chief demands of the miners.
1t is, argued by the operators
that to reduce the hours from 9
to 8 and raise wages at the same
time is unreasonable. This ques-
ton will probably be settled be-
fore the committee adjourns this
evening. 1t. appears the operators
are holding back with view to
using this concession to trade
against recognition of the union.

Philadelphia, April 12.-No
ogresS toward agreement was
made by the subcommittee of an

day, and the present conference
will likely be continued for an

There are nine demands made
by the miners, as follows: One

day, recognition of the union, a
more convenient and quicker
method of adjusting grievances,
twenty per cent wage increase,
minimum of $3.25 per day for
miners and $2.25 for laborers, not
more than two laborers to one

DOG ATTACKS
LION TO SAVE
ITS MISTRESS
MISS RUTH EWING WATCHES
BATTLE UNTIL WILD BEAST is
PUT TO DEATH-ARMs AROUND
CANINE.
Special to The Journal.

Redwood City, Cal, July defend
ing his 12-year- old mistress, Ruth Ew-
ing, from the attack of a half-starved
mountain lion in the woods in Devils
canyon, in the southerly end of the
county, a great dane dog stood off the
beast until John Harris, who was
chopping wood in the vicinity, killed
it with an ak.
Ruth Ewing, who is the daughter of
Frank e. Ewing, living in Devils can
yon, near the big state forest reserve,
started out in the morning in COM
pany with her dog, Fremont. Before
she had gone far the lion sprang out
at them.
She threw her arms around the dog,
which Immediately got between her
and the lion, and, according to Har-
ris' account, was having the better of
the fight. Harris heard the screams
of the girl and rushed to the spot, kill
ing the lion with his ak. The lion is
said to be one Of the biggest seen in
this district for years.
Ewing says there is nothing on the
place too good for his dog, as he be-
lieves his daughter would have been
killed if the great dane had not been
at hand.

By Burrhan

exposing the sore spots do much to
heal or eradicate them, must have been
wiled, too, to set people thinking as
TO how dangerous the expression OF
raw truth has become in this highly
accomplished age where flourish GER,
tain sycoplants and shams.
One remarkable feature Of his ca
reer, too, was the fact that he seemed
to have worked more like a machine
than the average ideal of the inspired
writer; wrote methodically so many
hours during the day to make iv-
ing" his unpublished manuscripts on
hand at the time Of his death, in fact,
having served to swell the revenue of
his relatives ever since.
He often declared that ne really was
not inspire d-that he wrote simply for
financial reasons.
But If he was not humanity conscious
Of being inspired, he must have been
so thoroughly inspired by another
psychic force which was writing
through him, as to have been insen-
sible to the very source of his power
for inspired he certainly was for the
great good of the generation.
Those, indeed, who have not given
some time to this master surgeon Of
latter day minds, have missed a bright
new key to human nature mystery.
Those, too, who have failed to ap-
preciate him, have assuredly some GER
tain weak spot in the underlying prin-
ciples Of their characters which have
simply been hit by the Phillips satire
and 1T stings.
It is a good idea to know Phillips
thoroughly; for in reading after his
great master mind which has etched
almost all of us at one time or an
other, as we actually are, we grow to
know ourselves more fully, f1nally-and
the world of "other people"
! Which helps.

WITH HUSBAND
TAKES POISON
MRS. FRANK .. KEHoE, WIFE OF
CHAUFFEUR, IN CRITICAL CON-
UlTloN-TkIEs TO END LIFE
WHEN HUSBAND FAILS TO
SPEAK TO HER.
Special to The journal.

ST. Louis, July 6.-Because her hus-
band, following a family spat, hadn't
spoken to her all dav Mrs. Frank B.
Kehoe, 20 years old, swallowed car
bolie acid at 1890 a. m. while sitting
in an auto at Jefferson avenue and
Locust street She is in a critical
condition at the city hospital.
The Kehoes live at Locust street.
The husband told a reporter that ne
saw his wife drink the acid and tried
to knock the bottle from her hand,
but was too late. He hurried her in
the auto to the dispensary. From there
she was taken to the hospital in an
ambulance.
Kehoe is the chauffeur of a rental
car owned by ]. H. Smith, 310North
jefferson avenue. He said that before
he started to work Monday morning
he and Mrs. Kehoe had a quarrel
Failed to Tell Her Good BY.
He went away without telling her
good by. She went to East st. Louis
and spent the day visiting friends.
While she was there she bought the
acid and hid it in her handbag, the
husband thinks.
She returned at 1890 p. m. and went
to the corner where her husbands car
is usually kept. Kehoe said he was
talking to another man when she came
up and did not speak to her. She went
to their home and returned to the car
about midnight. Still the husband re-
fused to make up and she drank the
poison.
Mrs. Kehoe was formerly Miss Pearl
Leroy. She was a passenger in Ke-
hoes machine more than a year ago
when it was struck by a United Rail
ways work car at Sarah street and
Washington boulevard and the seven
persons it contained were injured
Injured in Auto Wreck.
The young woman was one Of the
most severely injured of the seven.
Her husband wept as he told reporters
how he cared for her after the acct
dent and exhibited the dress she was
wearing at the time. He said he lad
no idea she was taking their quarrel
of Monday so much to heart, as 1t was
over a trifing matter.
Kehoe figured in a mysterious rob-
berry about week ago. Two passen-
gers in his car turned out to be high
waymen. After robbing him of what
money he had they demanded dia-
