Brown's fine residence on Grant street narrowly escaped the-fire fiend last Thursday evening while Mr. and Mrs. Brown were enjoying "A Gentle man from Mississippi" at the Adelphl. Hon. S. B. Elliott was In the house aione and late In the evening be beard two females enter tbe rear part of house and go up the back stairs to the maid's room, but supposed It was the maid and a lady friend and paid no at tention to them. He did not know that the maid bad gone home to spend the night. In the morning when Bbe re turned and went to her room she dis covered that the matting on the floor had been on fire and that a curtain on wall, used to cover her clothing, was burned, and a number of burned matches were lying on the floor. She claims to have had 190.00 in cash In her trunk, which was stolen. A handful of matches were left on the stand In her room. They were red tipped matches and the matches used In the Brown home were white tipped matches, so the female intruders carried the matches with them. It was some per son very familiar with the Brown resi dence and knew just how to get In the back way and how to get to the third floor, where the girl's room was.

A Just Wage Scale. The miners' wage scale should be made on a just and equitable basis. Tbe interests of both employers and em ployee should be properly considered It Is juBt as much to the advantage of the miner that the cost of producing coal in this region be such as will per mit successful competition with other regions as it is to tbe operator. What would it profit tbe miner if he were granted a greater advance than the operator could afford to pay ? If such advance made it impossible for the operator to run his mine and Bell his coal, he could provide work for nobody If tbe increase is proportionately the same in all competitive districts, all have an equal chance. If not, then the operator who pays the least wages and mines his coal tbe cheapest, gets tbe contracts, and to him the miner mus go for work in tbe end. It is best for all that tho balance be held true between capital and labor, remembering that the Injury of one is not only the concern of all, but that the success of tbe employer means the pros perity of the employee.
