LEWIS WOULD CHAIN
MINERS UNDER La W

Though executive vice president of
the company, he managed to be ig-
norant of many important matters,
read list Of stockholders and did not
know how many shares of stock were
held by the chairman of the board of
directors, and he testified that he was
never admitted to board meeting.
Lesher testified that the Pittsburg
Coal Company, while operating under
union agreement, was permitted to
operate open shop mines in West
moreland County and in Eastern Ken

The sergeant read excerpts from a
stenogranhic report taken at the
Canonsburg meeting several months
ago in which Miss Grecht was quoted
as saying that although President
Coolidge claimed his hands were tied
when asked to intercede en- behalf of
the strikers. his hands were not tied
when Wall Street asked him to inter-
cede in Nicaragua by sending marines
there.
Pierce also declared that the in
functions were termed scraps of
paper" by Miss Grecht who, he said,
declared that injunctions are uncon-
stitutional and rot backed by laws
made by any legislative body, but
iudge-made laws and therefore only
scraps of paper" legally.

Many committees from mining
camps around Burgettstown came to
Houston to inquire whether they
could testify for Miss Grecht. They
told her that they wanted to hear
what the "Save-the- Union Commit
tee" had to tell them, and asked
whether she would speak at meetings
they wish to arrange for her in their
respective towns.

Why do so many, many babies of to-

and infantile ailments that used to
worry mothers through the day, and
keep them up half the night?
If you don't know the answer, you
haven't discovered pure, harmless Cas-
toria. 1t is sweet to the taste, and
sweet in the little stomach. And its
gentle influence seems felt all through
the tiny system. Not even distaste'

you just don't know what is the mat
ter. For real sickness, call the doc
tor, always. At other times, few
drops of Fletcher's Castoria.
The doctor often tells you to do just
that; and always says Fletcher's.
Other preparations may be just as
pure, just as free from dangerous
drugs, but why experiment? Besides,
the book on care and feeding Of babies
that comes with Fletcher's Castoria is
worth its weight in gold!

Aristotle. During the philosophers

Aristotle:

Cape Horn

Gen. William T. Sherman wrote In
his Memoirs that Cape Horn was an
island rounded like an oven, after
which 1t takes Its nam, (Ornos)
oven" However, he was in error, for
the Spanish word for oven Is "hornos,"
though 1t is pronounced without the
"h" sound. The island to which Sher
man referred is known as Horn island
and the actual cape is only a portion
Of the island says the Pathfinder
Magazine. But the cape did not get
Its name because Of its resemblance
to an oven. 1t was named for the
Dutch navigator William Schouten van
Hoorn who, with Lemaire, doubled the
cape in 1916. Horn is an anglicized
form Of Hoorn. In Spanish 1t is
called Cabo de Honos. No wonder
Sherman was misled for literally Cabo
de Hornos would mean cape Of ovens !;
that is, it would according to the form
did 1t not have different origin.
