Fighting at WaIsen Mine-RockefeIIer
Says All Demands, Except Recoq-

Before the Strike Began.

Washington.-President Wilson or
dered six troops Of cavalry, about 400
men, to the Colorado strike regions,
where a var between miners and
mine guards and State troops is in
progress.
The Presidents action followed a
two-hour Cabinet meeting, at which
detailed reports from the strike zone.
furnished by Federal agents and rep
r~esentatives of the State, were stu
died. These reports were the result
of appeals for United States aid from
Gov. Ammons of Colorado, the Colo
RADIO delegation in Congress, and bust
men and private citizens.
In a proclamation issued from the
White House he commanded all Sc
ditionists and disturbers to disperse.
Before calling on the soldiers to
maintain order the President sent a
long message to the Colorado Cover
nor urging him to do all in his power
to restore order.
The Secretary Of War ordered three
troops of the 5th Cavalry to go to
Trinidad from Fort Leavenworth
Kansas, and two troops of the 18th
Cavalry from Fort D. A. Russell. Wv
oming, to Canon City, Colo.
Governor Elias NJ. Ammons of Colo
RADIO sued a proclamation declaring
the state to be in insurrection and
practically declaring martial law.
In New York John D. Rockefeller If
who represents his father. a largo
owner of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company, refused to take
bility for the strike. He issued a
statement calling on the President to
restore order in Colorado. He said
the company had given concessions to
the miners. He said Representative
Martin Foster, who came to him from
President Wilson, had only suggested
recognizing the union. "Is if the
spirit of American fair play which is
asking such ruthless disregard of the
interests of honest men, or is it the
spirit of partisanship and self-seek-
ing?" he asks. Rockefeller reiterated
his stand for the open shop n spoke
for fair play" for the workingmen of
the country.
Seyenty-two are known to have been
killed in the war between the striking
miners and mine guards and State
troops. Some estimates run as high
as IT'S.
At Ludlow twenty-five were killed,
fourteen being chiJdran ond
en-, who persisted in the burning tents.
At Chandler, Empire and McNally
twenty-five were killed.

attacked by Louisville strikers.

volumes on the bottom shelf of the

"An encyclopaedia" replied the

IN THE NEW NECKWEAR
OUTSTANDING FRILLs SEEM TO
iAvE LOST POPULARITY.
Medlci Collar, on the Other Hand, Is
Very Much in Evidence-Guimpes
Occupy Important Position
In the Wardrobe.

Neckwear has taken on decidedly
new lines. Few of the outstanding
fr1lls are seen, although the Medici
collar continues in evidence. The
new neck fxings are developed of net
n sheer white linen, and are quite
lovely enough to please those whose
hobby is attractive neckwear.
Some of the chemisettes are of al
Q mannish severity, and they are
worm with the vests of brilliantly col
ored silk. These, however, are not
becoming to all types, so there must
be other designs of softer lines for
the woman who demands fluffy neck
wear.
A chemisette trimmed with coin
Snapped buttons is made for sheer
white linen. The collar flares away
from the neck, and is hemstitched an
inch from the edge. A pleated frill
borders the revers and three crochet
ed buttons ornament each side of the
chemisette.
Dotted tulle in it's transparent love
illness is the material chosen to evolve
a charming scalloped fichu-colIar. The
scallops are buttonhole-stitched, and
the frfll is gathered through the cen
ter. Two frills of lace are stitched
under the outer scalloped frill, and a
cravat of orange-colored MORE ribbon
adds a pleasing note Of color to this
piece Of neckwear.

smallness of Present Millinery Some
times Makes This by No Means
an Easy Task.
Hats are still to be small.

Hats are still to be small.
The entire spring showing follows
the closest lines, SO that it is incum-
bent on US to retain almost severely
simple coiffures.
No allowance is made for the wom-
an with bounteous tresses, and it is
to be feared that she will find 1t rather
difficult to obtain accommodating head
size, for even with the hair dressed
closely the new shapes are decidedly
combining.
They r ~undeniably smart, how
ever, and whether this is more largely
due to the shapes or the trimmings is
hard to decide.
The sitter braids are not seen
much, though they will doubtless ap-
pear later among the more tailored
varieties.
Black is greatly in vogue at the
present writing, and a black hat is
really a sensible choice for the first
Of the season, because it may be worn
with anything and will usually give ex-
ceptional service.

Animal Idiosyncracies.

Many are the id~iosyncracies of ami
mails. Some horses are afraid of a
dog, some of a bit of paper, some
Of a bear, some Of a car. l have
known two mules to shy at a big vel
low cucumber on a fence, and a COW
we formerly owned could not endure
to see any mans hat removed.
The oldest trick recorded of a rid
ing animal is that of Balaam's ass,
who tried to crush its riders foot
against the wall. Biting, paving and
boiling are also described in the Scrip
lures. A balky team figures in Esop
and Chauser. That the horses of
the Saracens used to shy is shown by
the traditional inquiry, IF they
thought King Richard was in that
bush?" This same baking, or jib-
bling, in all it's varieties is one of the
most ~aggravating of vices.-From "a
Farmers Note Book" by C. E. Phelps.

James Stillman once received a
group of British financiers in his i'm

himself, saying that he had important
business. But you can use my big
French motor" he said, pointing to
a splendid $15, 900 machine that stood
outside. They accepted his invitation
and started off.
A few hours later the Britons were
speeding down a hill on the Hudson
river drive. Suddenly they spied a
lone cyclist toiling up the incline. He
was pumping hard, but making
progress. AS they neared him one of
the B%ritishers said:
Il wonder who that begger is?"
Poor DEVIL" remarked another.
When they raced past him they saw
that the poor devil was their host,
the head of one of the greatest of
world banks, in whose costly car they
were riding.-Saturday Evening Post.

Marriage

The early marriage ceremony
among our Anglo-Saxon forefathers
was of a very primitive character.
1t consisted merely of hand-fasting, or
taking each other by the hand, ard
pledging love and affection, in the
presence of friends and relations.
The bridegroom paid the father a
sum of money, called a 'foster-lean,'
or payment for n%ourishing.
At a later period, the early custom
of espousals was reduced to a regular
system, and the lover was required to
give a wed" or security, for the per.
formance Of his contract, hence oul
word wedding"

collar is unusually high, and the
t~urned-down portion has sharply point
ed corners Strips Of black moire
ribbon fasten the vest in front.
You cannot help but admire the
charming fichu collar Of dotted net
combined with black ribbon velvet
illustrated. Double frills of the dot
ted net have a strip Of the velvet
through the center. This is tied in a.
fiat bow at the waist line.

forms the basis for the guimpe of Sc
we're lines. The chemisette has verti-
cal tucks and feather-stitching orna-
menting the front. The mannish col
lar has a line of feather-stitching near
the edge, and the cravat IS of striped
silk.
In case your frock does not require
a chemisette, the separatA collar with
long pointed ends will supply the
touch of white to the neck. 1t Is
made of white linen, and the cavat
is of em~erald-green moire ribbon.
Neckwear is such an important fea-
ture of the costume that it demands
a great deal Of attention. 1t frequent
ly supplies the individualizing note, so
you cannot be too particular when
choosing it.
The Penn's Grove record., 1914-05-01
Handwork Chic.

The demand for loosely woven fab
RIGS, whether of wool or cotton, or the
two in combination, is responsible for
some of the most attractive linens
and crepes this season. 1t is to be
remembered that materials of this
sort lend themselves readily to handi-
work, such as darning, crochetting and
outlining. A little handiwork goes a
long way toward giving a costume
style and individuality.

DEAD IN MINE DISASTER
Gas Explosion Wrecks Shaft No. 5 Of
Galleries at EccIes, w. Va.

Galleries at EccIes, w. Va.
B%luefeld, w. Va.-At Eccles, w.
Va, a mining town on the Virgin
ian Railway, fifteen miles s of
Beckley, the county seat of Raleigh
County, an explosion occurred in Mine
No. 5 of the New River Galleries
Company, in which 1876 men were at
work. Not a man is alive to tell the
tale of how the catastrophe happened.
The New River Galleries Company,
owned and operated by New York
capitalists, has six shaft mines, rang.
ing in depth from $50 to $50 feet.
Mines No. 5 and s are about a half
mile distant from each other and are
connected by an underground passage
way.
The effects of the explosion in No.
8, which resulted in the death Of all
the miners, did not reach to No. 8.
except the shock, which killed twelve
people and injured several score of
others, many of them seriously. There
were only seventy-six men in mine
No. 6 at the time of the explosion.
The one entrance leads into mine
No. 6, and by means Of it the rescues
were made. No. 5 nina is completely
shut off from the surface.
The explosion occurred in mine No.
5. in which the two shafts were de-
molished. 1t is believed the explosion
travelled through this mine into No.
6. One shaft of the latter mine was
wrecked, but the other remained in
tact, and this was the salvation of
fifty-nine of the workmen.
The mining community Of 1900 per-
sons was shaken by the explosion. At
first there was no smoke, but men on
the tipples knew that FAR underground
the toll Of death was being taken.

know that here in our own land the
money spent for one battleship could
build 500 churches or school houses

permeate countless communities with
a spirit OF brotherly love and Of help
