TROUBLE IS LOOMING
Over We Mining Situation Where
They Dis: the Anthracite
Black Diamonds.
MITCHELL DISLIKES THE OUTLOOK
Operators Iccline to Negotiate with
the L'liion, While I'aj-iug L'niuu
Vaire Scales.
Philadelphia, Mart-li 11. Authipnt
lus: thi fouvontlon of the United Mine
Workeis of America at llazclton. Pa.,
this week the coal operators tliroujiU
out the nnthiaeite region Saturday
posted notices auuuuucin that the 10-
per-cent. advance m wages ami ctner
foncessiuiis made to tbe miners last
November -would be continued until
April 1, l'MJ. and that local differences
would be adjusted with the employes
of the respective collieries. This ac
tion, it is understood, was determined
upon a week ago. and is said to have
been the result of a desire ou the part
of the operators to avoid a conference
with the miners.
Will Not Keeognize tbe Union.
Notices have been posted at all
mines operated by the following com
panies: The Heading Coal ami Iron
company, the l.ehigh Valley Coal com
pany, Delaware and Hudson. Pennsyl
vania railroad, Delaware, Lackawan
na and Western, Central railroad of
New Jersey. Pennsylvania Coal com
pany (now controlled by the Krie Kail
road company and the Hillside Coal
company. While the officials of the
companies are reticent it is under
stood that they will positively decline
to take part in the miners' convention.
The request made by President Mitch
ell, of the U. M. W.. that the operators
send representatives to the conference
has thus far been for the most part
ignored. In one or two cases a negative
reply was sent. The operators are said
to bo anxious to avoid any action that
might be considered a recognition of
the union.
Will Treat with Their Own Employes.
They have, however, expressed their
willingness to treat with their own em
ployes when there are any grievances
to be adjusted. While the agreement
to continue the existing scale appears
to be unanimous all of the companies
do not favor the idea. An official of
one of the largest coal carrying roads
in the state said-that the increased
wage scale keeps the selling price of
coal too high, especially where anthra
cite coal competes with the bituminous.
He said also that there is a big de
mand for anthracite coal at present,
and that the high price can be main
tained only so long as the boom con
tiirues. Miners Who Want an Advance.
In only one instance thus ftir have
the miners openly expressed disap
proval of the scale. The employes of
the Mineral Railroad and Mining com
pany in the Shaniokin region say they
want a C per cent, advance to place
them on the same basis as the Heading
miners.
PRESIDENT MITCHELL DISTURBED
Thinks That Tostlne Notices Has a Kad
EfTert on Mine Workers.
Indianapolis, March 11. The presi
dent of the 1'nited Mine Workers. John
Mitchell, left Saturday for Hazleton,
Pa., to attend the convention of the
anthracite miners there next Tuesday
morning. Mitchell Is apparently dis
turbed by t'.ie stand the operators of
the anthracite district have taken in
posting notices that the Hi per cent,
advance in wages and other conces
sions made by them on Nov. 1. 1!MV.
will be continued until April 1. V.Mrj.
snd that local differences will be ad
Justed with employes at the various
colleries.
'I am in no position at this lime to
My anything." faid Mitchell, '"but I
will makj the emphatic statement that
twisting notices is a mighty poor way
of adjusting differences. It seems to
me that with the experience the Penn
avlvania men have, gained lliey would
Poison oafi
Poison ivy
are among the best known
of the many dangerous
wild plants and shrubs.
To touch or handle them
quickly produces swelling
and inflammation with in
tense itching and burning
of the skin. The eruption
soon disappears, the suf
ferer hopes forever : but
almost as soon as the little blisters and
pustules appeared the poison had reached
the blood, and will break out at regulaf
intervals and each time in a more aggra
vated form. This poison will loiter in the
system for years, and every atom of it
must be forced out of the blood before you
can expect a perfect, permanent cure.
Nature's Anlidole
FOR
Nature's Poisons,
is the only cure for Toison Oak, Toison
Ivy, and all noxiou9 plants. It is com
posed exclusively of roots and herbs. Now
is the time toge the poison out of your
system, as delay makes your condition
worse. Don't experiment longer with
salves, washes and soaps they never cure.
Mr. S. M. Marshall, bookkeeper of the Atlanta
(Ga ) Gas Light Co., was poisoned with Poison
Oak. He took Sulphur, Arsenic and varjon."
other drugs, and applied esternally numerous
lotions and salves with no benefit. At times the
swelling and inflammation was so severe he was
almost blind. For eight years the poison would
break otit every season. His omditioii was much
improved after taking; one bottle of t. S. S., and
a few bottles cleared his blood of the poison, and
all evidences of the disease disappeared.
Teople are often poisoned without
knowing when or how. Explain your case
fully to our physicians, and they will
cheerfully give such information and ad
vice as you require, without charge, and
we will send at the same time an interest
ing book on Blood and Skin Diseases.
THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA.
rfalize the nnpleasant'effect of such a
sten on the mine workers.
"Do I think the oerators will agree
to meet with us? That is a riddle I
could not possibly answer. This last
move of theirs naturally Inclines nie to
the belief that they will not, but 1 still
rlifrish the hope of meeting the oper
ators iri the Hazleton convent ion and
patching up all differences in a friend
ly way. As to the effect of a refusal
on their part I am in no position to
make n statement until the convention
meets. Everything depends on that."
Longshoremen Cannot Strike.
Cleveland. .. March 11. It was an
nounced officially that the Internation
al longshoremen's association would
tnke no part in the marine engineers
strike. An official of the union said
that the agreement entered info with
the dock managers nt the Lake Krie
ports plainly states that the members
of an association shall not strike."
That is enough to settle the mailer."
he said, but with the agreement out
of the way we could not help the en
gineers in their present trouble."
HE HAS A HEW SCHEME
Tiy Wlileli He Proposes to Ho Over Niag
ara Falls I tiliarnieil.
Jackson, Mich.. March 11. C. F.ar
tholoaiew. of this city, has a novel
scheme which he has offered as tin at
traction for the Pan-American exposi
tion at Huffalo. Some years ago Bar
tholomew invented an apparatus with
which he imposed to go over Niagara
Falls. The apparatus consists of two
large spheres made of sheet steel and
lined with cork. Inside each sphere
is a silk iiag to contain gas. and the
spheres are connected by n steel rod.
to which the seat to be occupied by the
operator and sandbags for ballast are
attached.
Things are so arranged that in case
of danger one or all of the ballast bags
can be released, and in case all are re
leased the apparatus will start up into
the air and 'lat away liket a balloon.
The machine is to be constructed on a
large tloat and towed as near t lie falls
as possible, when it will be rolled off
into the water and tloat down and over
the falls. It is expec ted that the buoy
ancy of the gas bags will keep the ap
paratus on the surface, even while go
ing over the precipice.
CASHIERN0NEST INVENTUS.

Prosperous Conditions.
Niles. Mich., March 11. Ureat ex
citement prevails here Saturday night

prosperous condition, so far as they
know. National Bank l-Isamim-i- Seidell

said when asked if he was responsible
for the Washington dispatch saying
that Johnson had absconded. "I sim
ply telegraphed Washington that the
hank is c losed and cashier gone."

Also a Few Facts on the Same Snbject
We hear much nowadays about
health foods and hygienic living,
about vegetarianism and many other
fais along the same line.
Restaurants may be found in the
large cities where no meat, pastry or
coffee is served and the food crank is
in his glory, and arguments and the
ories galore advanced to prove that
meat was never intended for human
s'.omachs, and almost make us be
lieve that our sturdy ancestors who
lived four score years in robust health
on roast beef, pork and mutton must
have been grossly ignorant of the
laws cf health.
Our forefathers had other things to
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate. A warm welcome was
extended to any kind from bacon to
acorns.
A healthy appetite and common
sense are excellent guides to follow in
matters of diet, and a mixed diet of
grains, fruits and meats is undoubt
edly the best.
As compared with grains and vege
tables, meat furnishes the most nutri
ment in a highly concentrated form
and is digested and assimilated more
ciuickly than vegetables and grains.
Dr. Julius Kemmson on this sub
ject says: "Nervous persons, people
run down in health and of low vital
ity should eat meat and plenty of it.
It the digestion is too feeble at first
it may be easily corrected by the regu
lar use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after each meal. Two of these excel
lent tablets taken after dinner will
digest several thousand grains of
meat, eggs or oi her animal food In
three hours, and no matter how weak
the stomach may be, no trouble will
be experienced if a regular practice is
mide of using Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, because they supply the pep
sin and diastase necessary to peifect
digestion, and every form of indiges
tion will b8 overcome by their use.
"J. hat large class of people who come
u ider the head of nervous dyspeptics
should eat plenty of meat and insure
its proper digestion by the daily use
of a'nafe, harmless digestive medicine
like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, com
posed of the natural digestive princi
ples, pepsin, diastase, fruit acids and
salts, which actually perform the
work of digestion. Cheap cathartic
medicines, masquerading under tbe
name of dyspepsia cures, are useless
for indigestion, as they have no effect
upon the actual digestion of food.
"Dyspepsia in ail its many forms is
simply a failure of the stomach to di
gest food, and the sensible way to
solve the riddle and cure the dyspep
sia is to make daily use at a meal ot a
preparation like Stuart's Djppepsia
Tablets, which is indorsed by the
medical profession and known to con
tain active digestive principles.
AH druggists sell btuart's uyepep-
sia Tablets a'. 50 cents for full treat
ment.

A Fiendish Attack.
An attacii was lately made on C. F.
Collier, of Cherokee, la., that nearly
proved fatal. Ic came through his
kidneys. His back got so lame he
could not stoop without great pain,
nor sit in a chair except pro'pped by
cushions. No remedy helped him
until he tritd Electric Bitters which
effected such a wonderful change that
he feels like a new man. This mar
velous medicine cures backache and
kidney trouble, purifies the blood and
builds up your health. Only 50 cents
at Hartz & Ullemeycr's drug store.
