Mr. Harris has not changed an iota in appearauco and not withstanding liis ahsence of toveral years Is readily rocognized by tho men who were inombers of tho M. & L. A. A. in its palmy days. Mr. Harris is still a resident of Rcyuoldsvllle, Jefferson county. Tho object of his visit here was of a purely meroaittilo character, hut during his travels through tho region ho has como in contact with a large number of his old friends who wero very active promoters of tho M. & L. A. A. from 1881-87 and they have oxprossod regrots that tho Knights of Labor at that time made such rapid inroads into tho organization ns to cause its ultiuiato dissolution. In tholr con versations, Mr. Harris says, thoso parties liavo urgod him to mako another cfl'ort to ro organizo tho "Amalgamated," fooling assured that if it is onco more established through out this region tho mon will be moro loyal to its principles than heretofore, as they roalizo that no Association of their craft has accomplished moro than tho M. & L. A. A. did by its conservative courso during its throo years' oxUtonco hero. Wlicii askcu It no intended acting upon tho suggestion Mr. Harris said, "Yes. After considerable hositency I havo consented to mako another offort, providing tho men will render tho proper assistance. My Intention s first to tneot all tho peoplo who took an active Interest in the organization before and preliminary arrangements are now being mado for a mass meeting of tho men of Shenandoah and vicinity no later than tho first of November, at which time a porma nout organization will bo effected." 'How will the working airangements of the organisation ho framed, Mr. Harris?" the reporter asked. Tho same as before. Each colliery will have a branch of its own. so many branches will constitute a district, and so many ropro sentatlvos from tho various districts will constitute the county oxecutlvo board." 'How about tho membership that is who will bo eligible?" Motto is that tho association should em brace, all men working in and around the niinesirrespectiveufcrecd,color,or nationality, Tho Polish and Lithuanian peoplo are very important factors throughout tltis rogiou and It will bo necessary to nave ono or moro organizers from the ranks of those people, In fact I am In favor, after tho organization is started, of having thoeo pooplo organizo and operate branches of their own so that they may transact all tho business in thei own language and more fully understand aud appreciato all tho benefits to bo derived from such a movement. "I am confident, alter mature consldora. tlon," continued Mr, Harris, "that with but little effort the M. & L. A. A, oau bo mado as strong as it was seven and eight years ago, Whon I first canio through this region in 1881 I was a stranger to almost overyhody. A few know of mo through my connection with tho M. & L. A. A. in the western end of the state, My advent hero in May, 1S8I, accomplished litllo moro than to bow the seeds and I ex, perienced considerable ditfioulty in getting tho mine workers interested. Tho companies seemed at that timo to havo an advantage ovor tho men that in many instances it was with difficulty that I could secure a chairman for a meeting. However the seeds sown during my first coming was productive of fruit, as shown by the results accomplished in the spring of 1S85, at the time th Reading Company postal notices through out the region announcing mat a !) per cent, reduction would tako effect in March. The men began to realize their position and called upon me to make another effort, which was done, and by that means mass meeting was hold in Shenandoah, in the early part of March, 1885, together with similar mass meetings at Mabauoy City, Ashland and ol her places. The organisation heoame established aud the Heading company very wisely wi hdrew tho notice of reduc Hon, Immediately after that all tho mlno employes took hold of the organization with wonderful vigor. The people of Shenandoah will remember the great demonstration In May, 1885, when all the branches of the district, numbering between 3,000 and 4,000 wen paraded through the streets aud held great meetlug which puked Columbia Park where the afternoon was spent iu eluoidat- lug the principles and object of the organlw tlon. Tho JI. A L. A. A. continued strong and did excellent work In many respects until the spring of 18M, when the E. of L, commennd making inroads upon it and finally; tlio "Amalgamated" was forced to glvo wSy, and was almost ontiroly swallowed up by tho othor, although much to tho regret of a largo number of the M. & L. A. A. men. Tlio position I took then, and whloh I main tain now, Svas that each craft should have a separato and distinct organization for its own benefit and be officered by men who aro thoroughly familiar with all the detail of that craftj when that is accomplished, then I am in favor of a federation of all trades. Iu answer as to ills position in relation to strikes Mr. Harris said, "I still maintain my conservative position; and I further maintain that If the seventy odd thousand peoplo em ployed in and about tho anthracite mines, or a majority of thorn, are thoroughly uuited their condition can bo ameliorated and by conservative means can remove all oxistlug evils without resorting to that policy of destruction which Involves strikes." Mr. Harrlsboliovos that by tho first part of next week arrangements will be completed to announce ft date for a mass meeting to again revive thq K. fc L. A. A. Ho says tlio miners aro ripe for It. 11 MANY DESOLATE HOMES. io Changonblo Wenthrr of October and November lias Serious lllffict Upon Improperly I'cd ltulilo.

Tho changeable weather in October and November briugs desolation into many homes bocauso of mistakes in liaby's food. Practical men of s:ionce, physicians, and philanthropists, long considered infant feed ing the greatest medical problem, aud tho most valuable practical outcome of tholr many investigations was lactated food. Lactatcd food should now bo fed to babies in preference to anything clso but absolutely wholesomo breast milk. Tlio most successful physicians uso lactatod food exclusively. It tho purest, tho most nutritions and tlio most easily assimilated infant food. It is retained on tho stomach when otbor food is jectcil. It builds up tho strongth when summer complaints havo brought daugorous weakness. Profound knowledge of infant diseases has guided In tho preparation of lactated food It is tho noarest possible substltuto to natural mothor's milk. It counteract the weakness aud resulting emaciation of diarrhoea. sustains tlio strongth and supplies rich blood aud solid bono. Lactated food Is a triumph of human intelligence in successfully com batting infant disorders. HIP BROKEN. orlona Kontlt of m .11 mi's 1'a 11 at Cllnird vllle.

Tlio lloily of n Murdered Infant Oliilil I'ountl. Deputy Coroner Manley was to-day oallod upon to investigate the circumstances leading to tho death of a gill baby found on tho mountain. From what Is known now tho ohild was murdered. One of the attendants at the Polish ceme tery found tlio corpse on Thursday, but it was not until 8 o'clock last night that ho mado known his discovery. The attendant says ho notioed a plot of fresh clay a llttlo north of the cemetery fonco and his curiosity was aroused. Ho eorapodaway about three inches of the surface and found a box which, upon being opened, proved to con tain tho body of a child, clad iu a little white cotton gown aud a little cotton cap with com mon white laee trimming enveloped the head. Under the body were found two oaliuo dresses which hail evidently belongod to somo child live or six years old. The box was one in which butchers receive tholr supplies. After noting these things the attendant again burled the box and body, but mado tlio holo deeper than it was originally. Last night he concluded to notify Rev. Len.uka wlcz, who notified the Chief Burgees. To day Deputy Coroner Manley went up to tho oemetory and had the body again exhuraod and removed to tho lockup. Dr. Spalding was summoned and made an examination. Ho said that the child was full grown, hail lived after birth and hail evidently been foully dealt with, as tho neck was broken and tho left jaw was crushed. In tho doc tor's opinion the child was killed about three or four weeks ago. It was killed very soon. aftor birth. The dresses found with tho body form the only cluo tho authorities have. Ono dross is white calico with small pink figures and the other is a light brown calico. They aro old. Deputy Coroner Mauloy will not hold tho inquest until somo evening next week and. iu tho meantime will oxort himself to dis cover tlio guilty mother. Tlio fact that Dr. Spalding believes that tho child was killed about thrco or four weeks ago recalls tho case that was brought to tho attention of tho Borough Council at about that timo. A young Polish woman was charged with giving birth to an illegitimate child. Sho denied it but the Chief Burgees engaged two doctors to mako an investiga tion. They did so and reported that tho girl bad become a mother, but tho child could not be fouud. Fried oysters a specialty at MoElheuny'a 9.12-tf . I'KltSOXAL. Surprise Patty.
