y. NJ G. \. Gymnasium
Last Night.

Liberty National and Mcclure quin-
tets were victorious in the basketball
games of the Commercial league,
played in the Y. NJ. G. A. gymnasium
last night This puts Liberty in first
place with an average OF .750.
Mcclure and Palace follow with 500
while the Model brings up the rear
with $50
The Palace lacked the pep" i'm the
first game and finished behind Lib
erty, the score being l6 to 7. Diller
and Smith Liberty forward and
center respectively, constituted great
part Of the scoring machine, Smith
being i'm his prime. Underwood at
center upheld the honor Of the Pal
ace, making five Of the seven points
given to his team.
The second contest was by far the
most interesting. The Model and
Mcclure, the two fastest teams i'm the
league, fought it out until the last
minute of play when the Mcclure
quintet forged ahead and won 10y q
count Of 23 to q.
As is usual Thompson. Model for
ward, made up most Of the Model
scoring machine. While his guard
was not looking he slipped over II
of his five's q points. Heller and
Carnahan divided honOrs on the
Mcclure squad.

AIR FILLED WITH
MINUTE PARTICLES
Nobody Able to ENp'ain Odd Condi-
tons in This City Yesterday
Afternoon.

For an hour yesterday afternoon the
city was filled with millions OF
minute particles, resembling mica,
which filled the air. Although at
tracing no little attention and Caus-
ing considerable comment. nobody
made an effort at explanation.
Some yentured the opinion that the
strange conditions were caused by the
sudden change of temperature during
the past fOrty-eight hours, and at
tributcd the PARTICLES to the hundreds
Of miles of overhead wires within the
city Shedding their skin" This
theory didn't make much of an
however. Although the
particles were in evidence every
where, they were more numerous in

MINERS TO BOOST
THE WAGE SCALE
Leaders OF Convention Say That a
TwO-NCar Agreement Also
VIII BE Demanded.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 21.-It was
learned here tonight from usually
well-informed leaders in the United
Mine Workers of America, which is
now in biennial convention in this
city, that those in control of the or
gani2ation expect the convention to
adopt scale for the bituminous coal
fields which will call for at least 10
cents a ton increase in wages. There
are resolutions before the scale COM
mittee for action which call for in
Crcases all the way from . to 20 cents,
it was said, but it is not expected the
committee will recommend a higher
increase than 10 cents.
Two years ago the miners de-
manded an increase of cents a ton
and 10 per cent increase for day la
bOr, yardage and dcadwork
There is also likelihood, accord
ing to some of the leaders that a
tWo-year agreement will be demanded.
The anthracite miners are also asking
for tWO-year contract While the
scale committee has not yet met, it
is understood from members of that
body that the anthracite demands will
be approved without much discus
sion The hard coal workers are
asking a 20 per cent increase.
Delegates say they do not look for
serious trouble in making new wage
scales and expect there will be no
suspensions in regions where nego-
tiations are still under way after
contracts expire March 81.
