First Sign of Trouble in Kansas Mine
District Seen Today.

DIStrlct Seen Today.
Pittsburg. Kan, Oct. 22.-The first
sign of trouble in the Kansas coal
strike occurred today.
Eighteen men of Alexander Howat's
defiant faction posted themselves out
side of Hamilton mines, near the KAN
sas line, and made threatening re-
marks to miners as they entered the
mines.
A request for aid was sent out and
Sheriff Gould and party of deputies
induced the men to leave.
Thus far the strikers have remained
peaceable, but it was feared today
that any attempt t. further open the
mines would result in an outbreak of
violence.

IT IS somewhat of distinction to
be conceded the worlds greatest con-
cert harpist at the age of IS. That is
the record of Alberto Salvi. He was
born in Venice, Italy, in 1893, the son
OF an Italian harp maker. His father
made him a miniature harp on which
he took his first lesson before he was
OF school age.
When he was but a lad he won the
royal scholarship prize, thus receiving
all of his musical training at the ex-
pense of the Italian government. He
was graduated three years ahead of
his class-a composer director and
phenomenal concert artist.
In listening to Salvi's Victor records

and the "Fantasie in B Fiat" by Par
the inspiration of the unusually en-
thusiastic criticisms he has received
thruout the United States.
The ''Fantasie Impromptu' shows
Salvrs marvellous ability in contrast
ing and varied effects. At times the
melody becomes almost a musical
whisper-and then the theme is car
ried with briIliance and power.
The "Fantasie in B Flat" is an I'M
usual number. There is in the begin
ming a religious atmosphere-stately
and slowly measured tempo that grad
ually becomes more and more ami
mated and brilliant.
Both of these beautiful selections
will be played by Salvi in his concert
here.
The harp like the piano, loses some
Of its beauty in recording but the Salvi
records are so good that after hearing
them I was very anxious to hear the

nothing to compare with The Arm
strong Table Stove. rms nttIe eIec-
trio stove has wonderful cooking pos
sibilities, and should be godsend to
people who are doing light housekeep-
ing, or for small families who are often
inconvenienced by low gas pressure.
The entire meal can be cooked right at
the. table and served piping hot:
The Armstrong Table Stove has a
square pan about two inches deep in
which four eggs can be poached in in
dividual cups. or in which steaks and
chops can be broiled. In this same
pan vegetables could be cooked.
The toaster part of this remarkable
little stove toasts both sides of the
bread at once. There is a shallow
aluminium pan that is just right for
cooking bacon and eggs or pancakes.
The trouble in using most electric
grills is that only one thing can be
meal cools while the rest is being pre-
pared. With The Armstrong Table
Stove you can boil your coffee, make
toast and prepare eggs at the same
time, and use no more current than
does the ordinary iron.
The Armstrong Table Stove is very
pretty nickel affair with black handles.
1t would be an excellent wedding or
Christmas gift. The price is $3.50.
An ordinary grill will cost about ST.

from the kitchen.

them, are for sale at The Topeka Elec-
