Tonight in Rail-Mine
Confab.

CINCINNATI, June 19.-Accept-
ance by the United Mine Workers
of an invitation to discuss joint ac-
tion with their workers has stiff
ened the determination OF the rail
union executives to go through
with the strike now being voted on,
il was evident today.
Thus E. II. Fitzgerald. represent
ing the railway clerks. freight
handlers and station employees, is
sued a statement presenting pub
lished reports that his organization
would not really strike. but was
merely talking about 1t.
I'VE will strike IL our members
vote for a strike" said Fitzgerald.
The rail union leaders are keenly
aware that they stand in a perilous
position with their own member
ship IL they do not make good
their strike talk should the men,
bers vote for a strike. They have
told the union rank and file that
this is a fight for union existence
and that IL it is lost organization
in the shop crafts and among
maintenance OF way employees is
doomed. Therefore even those
among them who would like to
avoid a strike are determined now
to fash strike orders for July l II
nothing happens in the meantime
to change the present situation.
John L. Lewis, head of the mine
workers. is himself a considerable
bolsterer of the weaker ones among
the rail executives. Lewis. in his
public utterances since getting here
has proceeded on the assumption
that the railroad leaders meant
what they said, and that they

are to appear. emphasized that the
conference was understood to be
one of experts, that all decisions
must be referred to the respective
governments and all politics ex-
cluded.
France reserves the right to re-
call her experts should the attitude
of the Russians necessitate this.
Meanwhile the general commits
sion will meet Wednesday TO elect
a president. 1t was also decided
that the heads of the general COM
mission and the three subcommI,-
sions shall constitute a central COM
mission to insure coordination of

tions in communicating with the

U TO BE RAISED
Divers and Dredgers
Hope to Regain Gold
Lost for 800 Years.

PENETANGUISHENE, Ont,
June 19.-The lost treasure box
of Jesuit missionaries, who
cast it in the River Wye near
here almost 900 years ago, has
been located. 1t Is believed. and
may be raised from the river
bed tomorrow.
Hundreds OF spectators are
watching the dredging ship
which has dredged up thou
sands of cubic yards of mud
from the bed of the river in
an effort to recover the treas
ure box. Father Murray hopes
the ancient box, lost since 1888,
will be found to contain silver
and gold coins and altar YES
sells of rare historical value.
A device for locating metal
has been used by the search
ers. who believe the machine
has definitely indicated the
spot where the box was cast
away by the missionaries as
they fed from Huron Indians.

CAT NOW KNOWS
 HOW CANARY FEELS

SANTA BARBARA, Cal, Sept 2o. One Santa Barbara cat now knows how the canary feels. He found out the other day, while perched on the ton cross-beam of a telephone pole, frantically defending his eyes, ears and nose against the attack Of two shrieking blue-jays, with shrllly applauding audience of linnets and sparrows twittering for a knockout.
 An anxious human spectator tel ephoned the humane society, whose representative, aided by a telephone company lineman, tried to rescue Thomas from the beaks of his tor mentors. The panic-stricken cat gave one look at the lineman climbing the pole toward his perch, aimed a last despairing uppercut at the blue jay nearest him, and then jumped. He landed right side up and disap- peared down the, road in cloud of dust.

END OF WORLD SEEN IN MOVE
 TO HOLY LAND

ZION, H., Sept 20.-The ratifica- tion of the Jewish mandate, giving the Jews the right and protection to re- enter their homeland, is regarded by Wilbur Glenn Voliva as the greatest document in history Tt means that we have reached a stage in the worlds history the significance of which can not be estimated-it is so stupendous in importance. It is a sign to the whole world of the approaching end of this age. When Jesus said: And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and they shall be led away captive into all nations; and Jerusa- lem shall be trodden down of the Gen. tiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled Guke 21:24) His words were literally fulfilled, and we find that the Jews have been scattered throughout the world for centuries, without a home, and yet not losing their iden- t1ty. The World War of 1914, and the capture of Jerusalem by General Al lenby as result of that war, marked stage in the worlds history of tre- mendous importance. It meant the death-knell of the reign of the Gen. tiles and the restoration of Israel with the throne of David.
 "It also paved the way for the re- turn of the Jews to their homeland and the end of the times of the Gen. tiles. Gods clock must tick for Israel once more, and we shall see some mar yelous developments in Palestine, both commercially and politically. It means also that the approach of the Lord for His saints is imminent. In a mo- ment, in the twinkling of an eye the saints will be caught up from this earth and be with their Lord for a period of seven years, during which time there shall be a time of trouple on the earth such as never was slnce there was a nation. After the rap ture the earth will be visited with 1udg- ments and almost three-fourths Of the nponle will be killed. I would not be doematic about the year, because tbere may be some chronological errors as to dates, but I cannot see how It is possible for the wind-up to be de- ,aved longer than the year 1925"
