TRAnNMEN WANT
EIGHT HOUR DAYS
Brotherhoods in big Five"
Movement Discuss Plans at
Boston Meeting

Boston, Nov. IA countrywide
movement for an eight-hour workday
for all men engaged in moving trains
was announced yesterday at a meet
ing of the big Five" Brotherhoods,
representing employees of the railroads
entering this city.
National officers of the brother
hoods addressed the meeting and the
thousand delegates present voted to
launch the movement here in the near
future by presenting demands for an
eight-hour day and double pay for all
overtime work to the Boston and
Maine, New York. New Haven and
Hartford and Boston and Albany
roads
The organizations known as the
big five" are the Brotherhoods of
Locomotive Engineers Locomotive
Firemen and Enginemen. Railroad
Trainmen, Railroad Conductors and
Railroad Telegraphers.
Speakers asserted that under the
present system of long hauls on many
eastern railroads men are obliged to
work from IL to 16 hours day and
that many of them have only thirty
hours a week at home. An eight
hour day plan was declared to be an
organized effort to obtain home life
for the railroad men" and not a move
ment for an increase in wages.

Cameron.
The two men were digging in the
sandy soil about fifteen feet under the
earth when a bar suddenly became
fastened. They worked awhile to get
it out then Armour started for the
opening to get tool to remove it. He
had just reached the opening when the
dirt from the sides and top of the
tunnel started to sift through the
boards which had been used to keep
it back. Both men ran as it started
to fall more rapidly but McFadden
who was far back was caught. Ar
mour was buried to his waist.
Shifts of volunteers worked for four
hours before they were able to get

Druggists Guarantee to Return the
Money If Mi-O-na Does Not
Relieve You
It's a pleasure to sell medicine
when customers come in afterward and
tell you how much good it has done
them.
Druggists everywhere can tell of this
well-known stomach remedy. And that
is the reason why they are always glad
to sell and recommend Mi-o-na. 1t
does the work and ends all stomach
distress just like the Mi-o-na people
say it will. AS a result of this sue
cess most every druggist goes a step
further and sells Mi-o-na on a positive
guarantee that unless 1t helps the pur-
chaser he can have his money back.
That may seem rash, but customers
have said so many good words in Mi
are likely to be returned.
Anyone who has dyspepsia, whose
food does not digest well, and who has
to take thought as to what he can eat,
and when, can leave so cents deposit
at any drug store and take home a box
of Mi-o-na and IL the remedy does not
regulate his digestion and help his dys-
pepsia he can withdraw his money.
This shows great faith in the merit
of Mi-o-na. 1t is really a most unusual
medIcine and the rapid increase of
risburg shows that it does all that it is
claimed to do-relieves dyspepsia.

who use it to eat Just what they want

Much Mourning Color

Clark some time ago, and he never
objects to a joke with references to his
color-provided he makes it himself.
Down in Missouri lives a colored man
who has won for himself considerable
local renown on account of his ability
as landscape gardener. He was en-
gagged one day in setting out shrubs on
his employers lawn. The owner of
the place was nowhere in sight but
quite a company of the gardeners
friends hung on the fence surrounding
the lawn, intently watching every
move.
Another darby who was driving for
physician living in the community
observed for a moment the row Of
spectators, then turning to the doctor
who was Just getting into the buggy,
he remarked solemnly: "Doctah, dere's
somebody shorely dead at Mr.. Jones'
house"
Dead ?" said the physician. Il think
not Tom. | should have heard of it if
any of the family had been i'll"
"Well doctah," said the driver,
pointing to the row Of dusky individ-
uals decorating the pickets of the
fence. "ef dere amt nobody dead at
Mr.. Jones house, what fo' is all dat
