CTS of the World from the Globe Miami district. that organization twill take the law in it's own hands" accord ing to a telegram from Organizer Lit tie, at Salt Lake City, to the governor, which was recevied tonight. Little re- gently left Globe. Following is his tel egram:
 Understand that the mine owners mob will take same action at Globe and Miami as was taken at Bisbee. The membership of the I. w. w. is getting tired of the lawless capitalist class and will no longer stand for such action. If you, as governor, cannot uphold the law, we will take same into our own hands. Will you act or must we?"
 In reply, Governor Campbell said he felt sure no deportations could occur with the federal troops stationed in the district and that he was using his best efforts to protect rights of all citizens. Concluding he said:
 q resent your disloyal and untimely threats in view of my earnest efforts to bring law and order and such forces as will maintain same, and further like behavior on your part will be punished to the full extent of my au- thority."
 President Charles Mover, of the h. ternational Union of Mine, Mill and Shelter Workers, wired Governor Campbell today saying he understood an effort would be made to bring strike-breakers into Arizona from Mis- souri. He asked that this be prevent ed. Governor Campbell said he knew nothing of any such movement, ac- cording to messages received in Globe late today.

RHEUMATISM Is TORTURE
As Many Bisbee Reader Knows Only
 Too We'll

Many pains that pass as rheumatism are really due to weak kidneys-to the failure of the kidneys to drive of uric acid thoroughly. When you suffer achy, bad joints, backache, too, dizziness and some urinary disturbances, get Doan's Kidney Pills, the medicine that is publicly recommended by over l50,- 900 people in many different lands. Doan's Kidney Pills help weak kidneys to drive out uric acid, which is often the cause of the backache, rheuma- tism and lumbago. Bisbee people have learned their worth. Read this Bis bee residents experience.
 James Fell, miner, of 1S1 Tomb stone canyon, says: ''I suffered with rheumatic pains and the muscles of my back were sore and lame. Every time I bent over or moved quickly, knife-like pains went through my back. l was miserable and my kid neys didn't act at all right. l was in pretty bad shape when 1 began using Doan's Kidney Pills, but they cured me"
 Price 50 cents at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-tne same that cured MT. Fell. Fister-Milburn Co.,, Props, Buffalo, N. Y.-Adv.

Butte Conditions Better

BUTTE, Mont, July 17.-With cleo tricians and metal workers back on their jobs, mining company officials today reported also the largest mum Der of miners at work since the local labor troubles started in the Butte copper district more than month ago. All the striking employees of the Montana Power company are at work today. The Metal Mine Workers un- ion at Butte, the organization formed by alleged I. w. w. leaders here, has failed in it's efforts, it is said, to pre- vent a large part of its membership from returning to work.

More Men at GalIup.

GALLUP, N. M., July 17.-More miners reported for work today at the coal mines of the Gallup-American Fuel Company, where a strike called by the United Mine Workers of Amer ica has been in effect for two weeks. Striking miners are receiving weekly strike benefits from the union. They amount to four and a half dollars a week for single men. with an addition al two dollars for married men and fifty cents more for each dependent child. Many strikers are leaving town for other coal camps.
 Attempt Guard Line.
 GLOBE. July 1S.-Two attempts were made to break through the guards stationed about the Old De- minion mine shortly after 12 o'clock this morning, but both efforts were unsuccessful as a result of the extreme vigilance which is being maintained by United States troops and civilian watchmen.
 Three Mexicans tried to cross the Arizona Eastern railroad tracks, about 25 yards below the spot where Private Mark Cafado was killed early Sunday morning, but they weer halted by sen tries. Another attempt was made by stranger in an automobile to pass by the main entrance to the mine. When he had driven past the guards he was told he would be fired upon unless he halted. When he could not give any reason for entering the mine he was ordered to turn back.
 The giatn searchlight. placed upon the highest point in the mine. has been sweeping the creek bottom along the railroad tracks since II o'clock last night, when a body of men were dis covered. Reinforcements have been sent to this part of the guard lien and soldier sentries are being assisted by mine guards in watching the move ments of the men. who are about 50 yards from the tracks. The search | light is being held on them continu- ously.

 Then the first regiments left their barracks to participate in the demon stration, but contrary to reported or ders of workmens' and soldiers coun- cil. carried arms. One regiment marched along the Nevesky Prospect, apparently wit hthe intention of going to the duma. The crowd watched more with curiosity than with apprehen- sion."
 Shots Fired.
 Suddenly five shots flashed out They were immediately followed by the crackle of machine guns in. the same direction.
 "The street was instantly emptied the regiment which had been march ing with fixed bayonets running with the crowd to adjacent streets to seek shelter"
 The firing was taken up at other points and soon a fusillade was going on in the whole quarter from the city hall to Kazan Cathedral. Soldiers joined in with rifles from their places of refuge. They fired wild, there be- ing nothing visible to aim at.

Lutheran Synod
 Denies Charges

OMAHA, Neb., July 17.-Twenty- seven pastors and heads of the nine branches of the Lutheran church of America officially purged the church of the Nebraska defense councils charges of disloyalty at meeting held here today when resolutions were adopted affirming the loyalty of the church in America. The ministers represented the 30O,000 Lutherans in Nebraska directly and those of the en- tire country indirectly.
 The resolution called attention to the Augsburg confession, to which the ministry is obligated and which com mands loyalt yto the government, and to the small catechism in which the laity is enjoined to obedience to the government. It further declares that the Nebraska council of defense, be cause of cases of indiscreet conduct on the part of individuals, such as par ticularized our church for the mark of odium, when, undoubtedly, among all creeds there have been those likewise guilty, and yet these creeds have passed unnoticed."
 It also assures the honor and Boy alty of the ministry and laity in an swering devotion to this country.
 But one discordant note marked the session. Rev. H. w. Saegar of the Missouri German synoG. voted against the resolution. MT Saeger. said that the meeting should not have been held at all because the defense councils at tacks were against individuals and not against the body of the church.

SECRETARY HART
 AN INTERNATIONAL
ONLY MAN WHO HAS FREE AC- CESS EVERYWHERE THROUGH THE LINES OF ALL FIGHT
 ING NATIONS.

The 200 delegates at the Y. NJ. c. A Conerence held in Dallas, Texas, Oc- tober Il, representing the states of Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, Oklaho- ma, Arizona and New Mexico, were thrilled by the address of A. C. Hart. Y. M. C. A. Secretary for Soldiers in Prison, Camps and Hospitals. He has a message that drove home the needs of the Association at home and overseas with an emphasis that in- spired all his hearers.
 MT. Hart, who was in the United States for only few days on a spe- cial mission for the President, and who has already returned to his post at Petrograd, has the unique distinc- ton of being one of the few men in the world who has passports through the lines of all the fighting nations. Wherever he goes he carries the gos- pei of cheer and material comfort to prisoners of war, to the men in the trenches, those suffering from wounds in hospitals on all the fighting fronts. His work is recognized and endorsed by all military authorities, who there by demonstrate that the asperities of war have not overcome the finer traits of altruistic humanity.
 Only last month the German gov ernment entrusted Mir Hart with $150,000 to be used for the alleviation of the needs of German prisoners, of whom there are millions in the pris- on camps of Russia. Con Hoffman, formerly in charge of the Y M C. A. in the University Of Kansas, is MT AHarts personal representative at Berlin.
 Mr. Hart's organization is the only medium through which it will be pos sible for the people of Arkansas to keep in touch with their boys, many of whom must eventually become prisoners of war in the prison camps of the central powers. Through the Y. M. c. A. it will be possible to send them letters, papers, and parcels, and the presence of '. M. c. A. secretaries among them will insure their humane treatment. There is no other practi- cable approach to them.
 This is the message that aroused the members of the conference to a high pitch of enthusiasm, and a de termination to win the goal of $1 ,000.- GOO that has been set for this depart ment, of which $40, 000 is set apart as Arkansas apportionment. Arkansas is asked to contribute only cents per capita, which is really less than that which has been apportioned the other states. Arkansas is well or. ganized, having been divided into six teen districts. with a district secre. tary in charge of each, and John l.. Hunter. state secretary, in general charge of the campaign, with head. quarters at f122 Boyle Building, Lit tie Rock. James B. Dickinson of Little Rock is chairman, John Ike Moore of Helena. vice-chairman, and B. C. Powell of Little Rock, treasurer. Representative men from all sections of the state are members of the Council. They are determined that Arkansas shall not fail in it's allot- ment of S1f0,000 to assist in carrying on this great work so vital to the in terests of humanity

made by refugees from the persecu- tions of the Iconoclasts early In the eighth century. The legends of the monks attribute them to the age of Constantine, in the third and fourth centuries. Reference to the existence of the cluster of religious brother hoods is made in historical documents of the ninth century.
 The claims of the monastery of Laura, founded about the middle of the tenth century by St. Athanasius, appear to be well founded and to make it, for historical purposes, the most ancient of the monasteries. There is reason to believe that Natopethi is of about equal antiquity. According to the monastic accounts of Natope- this founding, 1t is the most venerable of all the twenty, having been estab- lished by Theodosius in recognition of the providential rescue of his son from drowning on the coast near by. The most recent of the monasteries, Stavronikitu, was founded in 1545.
 There are twenty of them. They are situated on the wooded and noun tainous slopes of peninsula which is forty miles in length and from four to seven miles in width. The total population of the peninsula is about 1000. Three thousand of the inhab- itants are monks and the rest are lay brothers

Poet More Like q Fairy.

Tn his book on Swinburhe, Edmund Gosse asserts that the poet was more like n fairy than man. He relates the following anecdote in this connee- tion. though the Swinburne described does not accord with the common con ception of q fairy: Miss Alice Bird recollects Swinburne arriving at her brothers house with the first proofs of Songs Before Sunrise in his pocket, and Il little later in the evening his dancing about the room convulsed with passion while he half read, half re- cited them to her brother and herself. In particular those in which Napoleon III was denounced he repeated with such violence, and, as she puts II anus ingly to me, with such poison that his voice sounded like the hissins of serpents, while he jigged about the room. his hair flying out behind him and his arms Tapping and fiuttering at his sides. At these times, when he was transfigured by excitement, his won derful head looked like that of young god, if only the weak mouth and the receding chin could be ignored. Di- rectly the storm of melody was over, and the poem put away. Alsernon

torn into strips by their very guard ians to be twisted onto fish hooks and used as bait.
 Less perishable and equally beauti- ful relics still remain, most of them in an extraordinary state of preserva- ton. The buildings themselves. some of which cover as much as four acres, are wonderful examples of Byzantine architecture. There are choice speci- mems of ancient and cunning mosaic work. There are mural decorations attributed to Byzantine artists so an- cient that their work has outlived their fame and their very names are legendary.
 Vatopethi contains many venerated and quaint treasures, some of them Of great beauty. In the church is a throne inlaid with ivory and nearby a chased silver jeon of Andronicus II. Palaeologus An ancient case of solid gold in which are receptacles for the blood of saints contains fragment of the True Cross. which is set in gold and studded with large stones of pale hue.
 Most valued and most valuable from a material point of view is the girdle of the Virgin Mary, which now, for safe keeping, is in three parts, each of them kept in q separate vault of the abbey.

KEEPS RECORD OF MEN
Army of Clerks for Files in
 War Department.
United States Profits by British Diff culties in Checking Up Casualty
 Reports.

Washington.-A small army of clerks, operating files covering 10000 square feet of floor space, soon will be employed by the statistical division of the war department to keep the indi- vidual record of every man wearing Uncle Sam's uniform.
 The main purpose of the statistics is to provide an accurate means of checking casualty reports. Incidental ally however, the complete army his tory of the men will be recorded.
 Maj. ]. ]. Jones has charge of the central office in Washington. Another will be established in Europe. Weekly reports will be made to central offices by divisional bureaus, which in turn will receive information from three members of each regiment, specially detailed to the work.
 Two filing systems will be main- tained. One, containing in alphabet ical order the names of every man in the service, will serve as q check in referring to the regimental files.
 The record of each man will contain the name and address of his nearest relative. to serve as an aid to prompt transmission of cabled reports of deaths and serious illness. The war department also will undertake to give relatives reports of military funerals, location of burial places and informa- ton concerning Americans held in enc my prison camps
 Until the Red Cross came to it's aid, the British government experienced great difficulty in handling casualty re- ports, and by the establishment of this system the war department intends to avoid similar confusion.
