there was one who never would,

ever, as the soft tones Of his voice

me, by uneaSiness fell away. He
queried:

"Under Maj. Gen. Edmund
IrOnside, Your Royal HighnesS."
Little Davey'S" face beamed.
He, like all other Britishers, knew
the romantic tale of Major Gen
eral Ironside, and, like all other
BritiSherS, the prince was proud Of
IronSide.
Major General IronSide worked
his way up in the British Army
from a mule driver! Incidentally,
Ironside was bigger than Jess Will

could have whipped Willard, too.
He was two-fiSted, stood some 8
feet Z inches in height and
weighed around 275 pounds. He
was all man and his fairness un-

stances endeared him to every
American who fought in North
Russia.

but as I started to move away,
his left hand reached out and
stayed me. The aide came quickly
to the Princes side. He did not
address the aide. He smiled 1T
me and said:
"When you get down to the
end there, turn to your left"
FOLLOWS AIDE
I moved off, and when I got
down to the end there" 1 turned
to my left to be greeted by the
aide, an older man than the
Prince and dressed in "civies."
The aide said:
Follow me-"
I did. He led to down stairs
and to the buffers pantry. There
I joined possibly eight others, two
of them Americans, the others as
SOciated in one way or another
with the Prince. They greeted me in
various ways and had just settled
back in their chairs and on their
stools when the Prince, preceded
by an aide, entered. He smiled
around the room and said:
"SOrry to hasten you, but I
must hurry"
Almost Immediately an at
tendant appeared with a tray and
glasses and Scotch and soda. Each,
after the Prince, helped himself.

Convene Here
TOMORROW
International News Service

Plans were completed today for
one of the most important conven-
tionS in the history of the United
Mine Workers of America, open
ing here tomorrow. Nearly 1000
delegates are on hand to partici-
pate in discussions revolving
around legislation, wage matters,
working agreements and growth Of
the union.
Inasmuch as the present bitumi-
nous wage contracts between min
ers and operators will expire on
March 81, 1887, the convention
will decide upon the wage policy
to be followed in the negotiations
Of new agreements to take the
place of the present contracts
upon expiration.
The wage contract in the an
thracite industry will expire on
March 81, 1886. Negotiations be-
tween the union and the anthra-
cite operators will be held in New
York early in February.
The convention is expected to
go on record as favoring President
John L. Lewis plan for organiza-
ton Of industrial unions in the
mass production industries, in
GLIDING steel. automobiles, radio
and rubber. The A. F. of L. SO
far has favored the craft unions,
and a bitter row has resulted be-
tween Lewis and William Green,
president of the federation.
The United Mine Workers is as
years old, having been organized
at Columbus, Ohio, in January,
1890. 1t started with a member
ship of $4,000, and it has grown
until it now has $40, 900 members.
1t is what is known as an indus
trial union, because it includes all
persons employed in or around
coal mines and coke ovens, re-

work they perform. 1t is the
largest labor union in America, if
