 The native shyness of the.moun- tain children quickly disappeared befare the graciousness of their visi- tors, who warmly congratulated Miss Catherine Vest, the teacher. upon the work accomplished. The days rou- tine was set aside while Mrs. Hoover talked with the children about their studies their interests and the mountains which. are closest to their hearts.
 Only brief exercises were held today, there being no commence ment or even graduation" as Miss Vest put it. The teacher will return here from her Kentucky home next September to resume her work.

ANTHRACITE MINE
 WAGES SETTLED
Tentative Agreement Reached
 in New York Farley

New York, July IS LP,-News- papers said tentative agreement providing for the retention of exist ing wage rates has been reached by anthracite miners and operators
 The agreement, to run from Sep tenber 1 next to April 1, 1886, also embodies modified form of check No formal announcement of a tenta- tive agreement was made.
 Work On Plan Three Weeks
 The scale committee of the United Mine Workers of America, headed by John L. Lewis, president, has been negotiating with the operators for three weeks to fix terms for a contract to replace the present one which expires August 31.
 Under the check-off provision of the tentative agreement the operator would collect s1 a month from each miner for union dues. Any addi- tional assessments must be collected by the union directly from the men.
 & revision of the arbitration clause which provides that the wage ques- ton may be opened by either side once each year and submitted to a committee of two miners and two operators, the committee having the right to call in disinterested persons to assist.
 Operators have objected to the wording of the present clause as ambiguous and indefinite on the ground that it fails to fix time in which an arbitration committee must reach a decision and fails to include means to compel it to reach any de- cision.
 The life of the contract is extend ed seven months beyond a five year period to avoid the possibility of a winter strike.
 Accepted By Committee
 Newspapers said the principles of the agreement were accepted by the joint subcommittee representing the operators and miners after a, six hour struggle behind closed doors. It is to be submitted to the full scale committee of the union before being drafted into fnc1 form. Ratification by the local unions and the sigma lures of the operators are necessa " to pit it into effect.

BRITISH BELIEVE
 UNION USELESS
French Disappointed by Reply
 to Briand'S Proposal

London, July IS P-The British government, replying to Frances s invitation to collaborate in a Euro pean federation of nations, declared that because the project proposed ito set up new and independent in government was not convinced it was ''either necessary or desirable" "
 The probable new bodies, the re- ply set forth, would in no way de- rive their authority from the cove nant of the league of nations or from part 13 of the treaty of Yer sailles." and would in no way or ganically be connected with the league of nations.
 Since the organs of the league already have begun work on virtu- ally the entire problem of practical action which the memorandum put forward" the reply continued, "it is difficult to see how these new Eu- ropean institutions could operate without creating confusion and per haps also a rivalry which, however little it might be intended or de- sired by the European government-, could hardly fail to diminish both the efficiency and the authority of the organs of the league
 Tentative in Character
 The British reply was stated tn be of preliminary and tentative charac- ter. A definite answer, it was raid, would require careful. prolonged consideration which the govern ment felt duty bound to undertake in consultation with the dominlons
 Softening somewhat the far reaching objections to M. Briand's plan, the British government is rep resented as understanding the fed eration as designed to promote closer cooperation between the na- tions of Europe, and to strengthen the safeguards against another Eu- ropean war.
 With this aim. the document says, the government is in fullest sympa- thy and also with the French view that such cooperation can be ob- tained primarily in respect to eco- homie relations.
 The note ends with an expression of belief that the purpose of the French government can be secured effectively within the framework of the league of nations. and the hope that the French government will think it desirable that the memo randum be placed on the agenda Cf the next assembly of the league.
