The Mrlkers have tlic situation writ in hand
and arc going right alone with tho strike. The

hands of the strikers and from the headway they

That Is What Was Mined in tho An
thracite Region Yesterday Col
lieries That Are Working.
We have given our best thought to the Mil
linery. Some people wonder why' we expend so
much time and labor and money on such lavish
displays. Yesterday's compliments alone are
worth the cost to us. Doing things thoroughly
right and not by halves, is a pretty good busi
ness method.
Perhaps it is hard for you to choose from
among the hats. Stop to think that if your
mind rests upon two and you cannot decide
between them both are yours at the cost of
one any season back of a year ago.
With all the hats and flowers, gaiety and
crowd, it is
A Marvelous Millinery Show
You want to know about the styles ?
Black is more in favor than ever it seems
as if everything turns to black.
Not all mourning hats, either. For here
and there you sec one brightened up with a bit
of color. Entrancing! Yes, and extremely stylish
The fur hats will come later, when the
weather is ripe, though we show them now.

Not many imported hats left, the little
French labels sometimes help sell them. Take
them out and they're counterparts of Jonas

have been very complimentary to us.

The United Mine Workers of this
city held a large meeting In Koons
hall, this city, tonight, to make pre
parations for receiving President
Mitchell on Saturday night. It was
thought that there was not a hull large
enough In the city to hold all the people
who would like to attend the meeting
and It was decided to make an open
air utfalr to be held on the river ban'.
Several coal romnaults in the lower
end of the county have appealed to
Sheriff Harvey for protection. They
say tho marching bodies of men that
have Invaded the region In the past
few days are becoming troublesoiie
and unless prompt measures are tak-.-n
they may become a lawless element.
It Is said that the sheriff will take a
large number of deputies from thH
city down to Hazleton tomorrow.
The men employed at a wushery at
Luzerne borough reported to the depu
ty sheriff tonight that tho strikers are
Interfering with them. Tho employes
want to work and report every morn

who Intimidate them. The authorities
have promised to send some olllcers
to the scene to .see that tho men who
want to work are protected.

Philadelphia, Sept. 20. General Man
ager AVllllams, of the collieries oper
ated by the Pennsylvania railroad, In
his daily oillcial statement to tho main
onice In this city, announced that up
until noon today there wns no change
of any Importance In the strike situa
tion. The Nontlcoke and Olen Lyon
collieries are still Idle; the Cameron
mine nt Shatuokln. which closed on
Tuesday, along with the Luke Pld
ler operation, was working the same
ns yesterday, with the combined loyal
force of the two collieries mentioned.
Tho Lykens mine remains Idle, and
the Williamstown colliery, which the
Lykens strikers hail threatened to
march against, Is working with a full
fence. The William Penn colliery, In
the Schuylkill region, he also reported
as working with all its men on hand.
Mr. Williams also made a report as
t the Lytle Coal company and the
Tnion Cool company, neither of which
are In anv way connected with the
Pennsylvania railroad. The Lytle col
liery, he said. Is In full operation. The
Hickory Ttldge colliery of the Union
company, he reported as working
short-handed. Tho Pennsylvania col
liery of the Fame company, he said,
was Idle us a result of the strikers
Intimidating the men so that they
were afraid to leave their homes In
Mt. Cnrmel. Several of the men, he
added, were attacked by strikers and
severely beaten.
STRIKE NOTES.
By Uxelusive Who from The Associated Press.
New York. Sept. 20. Enslneers of
large manufacturing concerns and
those of the lorger business buildings
In this city literally besieged tho ofll
ces of. tho larger coal dealers today,
thoroughly alarmed lest tho supply
chould give out. Tho Communlpaw
Coal company, which supplies much of
tho coal for tho large buildings In the
down town districts, has Ptopped de
livering the commodity In large quan
tities and will only sell the amounts
Its regular customers absolutely need
each day. For the larger buildings
this varies from bIx to twenty-five
tons dally.
It was explained today that the rea
son the local supply of anthracite
would be exhausted In such a short
tlmo was because tho railroad lines
and large dealers near Jho coal fields
had commenced to buy In all the coal
In sight more than three weeks ugo,
anticipating the strike. The result
wrb that tho mining companies had
taken more orders than they could
fill. The local dealers had trouble to
get coal a week before the strlko was
ordered,
A notlco was posted today that tho
Philadelphia and Reading, whose col-
Shamokln, Sept. 20. Over 100 mules
were hoisted from various collieries In
this neighborhood today and will be
shipped to the Schuylkill county cor
ral. On Monday the mules will be
hoisted from tho Cameron mine, after
which It has been determined, In the
event of the men not returning to
work, to abandon the mine. Every
thing is quiet and orderly.
Reading, Pa., Sept. 20. Philadelphia
and Iteuding Coal and Iron company
olllcinls claim today that they took
as much coal out of the mines ns If
all their collieries were working full
handed. This Is due to the Increased
times In the mines. Orders have been
Issued to the men In the train service
that there must be no delay In hurry
ing trains to tidewater. Tho ofllclals
claim that their Inducements to their
men not to strike have had an excel
lent effect.
Pottsvllle, Pa., Sept. 20. Sheriff Toole
and his first deputy, O'Donnell, visited
McAdoo this morning In response to a
telegram from the manager of tho par
son wnshery at that place yesterday.
The sheriff, however, reports every
thing quiet and the people orderly and
peaceable, and consequently his ser
vices are not required In that quarter
of his bailiwick.
Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 20. In all of
the thirty-four colllerlei of the Phila
delphia and Reading company tho
dally hours wcro Increaeed from seven
and one-half hours to nine. Tho ob
vious purpose of the change Is to off
set the decrease In the output of coal
due to five collieries being Idle and
the short force In a number ot the re
maining ones.
Vrom a Staff Correspondent.
Tunkhannock, Sept. 20. Gray skies,
a raw, searching wind and occasional
sprinkles ot rain were the dominating
features of today at the fair grounds.
Although this Is the second day of tho
fair and everything Is In complete
readiness to bo seen and shown by the
exhibitors, tho smallest attendance on
record In the nnnals of the Wyoming
County Agricultural society marked
the day. This can be directly at
tributed to the prevailing sombrenoss
of tho weather, for the exhibition Is
fu'ly up to Its usual standard and In
some respects excels It.
Everything In and about the fair
grounds was at a standstill until tho
races began. In the morning the
residents of this little borough by
the Susquehanna amused themselves
by watching the hacks and omnibuses
parading the streets In search of pat
rons. In most cases the vigilance of
their drivers was futile, and the ve
hicles rolled out to the fair grounds
almost empty and returned In a like
deplorable condition. The hopes of
the directors of the fair, and of those
who had bought privileges were like
the ancient legend about truth
"crushed to earth," but they trust th
simile will be borne out to Its con
cluding phrase "will rise again."
LARCf CATTLE EXHIBIT.
The cattle In tho stalls at the back
of the grounds were added to this
morning, and there Is, Indeed, a fine
collection of them.
The Lovellton Cornet band occupy
a stand on the lawn Inside the race
track, almost directly In front of the
grnnd stand, and with their West Point
suits and rendition ot the populat
airs of the day, attract the admiration
of the small boy and his large sister.
The taffy-colored track Is inches
deep In dust. An enterprising sprink
ler started In to subdue this moving
real estate In the morning, but It
began to rain gently and tho engage
ment was called off. The rain stopped
and the dust Is as yet unconauer'd.
On the back stretch there Is n bad
turn six Inches deep In dust.
The Judges of the various depart
ments of exhibits started In on their
delicate task this afternoon. The
announcement of their decisions will
not be made until tomorrow, how
ever.
At the time tho races were called,
about 2 o'clock, there were not more
than COO persons on the grounds and
the grand stand, capable of seating
1,200, was occupied by about fifteen.
The races were called at 2 o'clock,
the double team race being first In
order. The ofllclals of the racing were:

A New Idea to Save You Many Dollars
Beginning today Our Great Friday Sales will not com
mence until Two O'clock. There will be sales at Two, at
Three and at Four, each lasting for One Hour. We discon
tinue the hourly sales of the morning and throw the entire
spirit of energy into these afternoon occasions. There are a
good many reasons for the change, all interesting and bene
ficial to you.
FIRST There have frequently been sales in both
the morning and the afternoon that our patrons have
wished to attend, but being impossible to get to the store
more than once during the day, they have had to miss
one or the other of them. The new plan makes it pos
sible for Everyone to attend ALL the sales,
SECOND The greater the volume of business we
do, the more it is possible to increase the purchasing
power of your money. I f we can double the crowds
on Friday afternoons, we can greatly increase the values
to you. This will be apparent today.
There will be plenty of interesting bargains all over the
store Friday mornings, just as there are every other morning,
but with the ringing of the gong at 2 O'clock we shall begin
ODR GREAT FRIDAY
AFTERNOON SALE!
That will break all records for value-giving. We make
great promises you have every reason to expect their ful
fillment. First Sale at Two O'clock, remember, the second
at Three and the third at Four lasting One Hour.
2.2r CLASS, PURSi:, $150.
First heat Six starters The drizzling rain had
by this time reduced the dnst Into a heavy,
sticky compound, which the horses flung -from
beneath their hoofs far behind the sulkies. Victor
P got the pole, with W. S. Maxey next, Albert,
Third, Schcrzonclo, fourth, Victor P fifth and
Itoxana, blxlli. Starter Kennard let them go af
ter the horses had lined up seven times. The
quarter was made in 38 seconds, the half In 1.10,
with Hoxana in the lead; the three-quarters was
passed in 1.13 and the mile in 2.3U4. with Maxey
in front, a head before Iloxana, who led Sober
zondo by a bead. The other two horses were
lengths behind the bunch of three leaders. West
lake, who drover Scherzondo made a protest
against Itoxana for running, and the Judges gave
second place to Scherzondo after a conference of
some minutes.
Second heat The horses started off on the first
attempt, with Victor P left behind. At the flr0t
time of passing the Judges' stand Iloxana was
ahead of Maxey a length, with Walter, Jr., fur
ther away. It was a pretty struggle all the
way around the second time between Iloxana and
Maxey, the former winning the heat by a bare
nose, with Walter, Jr., close up. Time by quar
ters was: First. 37',5 seconds; second, 1,17; third,
1.53; mile, 2.32Vi.
Third heat There was a long wait before the
horses appeared. A large part of the small group
of spectators had left tho grounds. Overcoats
were in demand. Victor P, driven by Justin,
delayed the start by being behind the field at
every attempt to score. They finally got away
with Victor V in tho rear. At (lie half Hoxana
led, a half length In front of Scherzondo, the
other three horses being bunched, with Victor
P one hundred yards behind. Iloxana led all the
way around the second trip, with Scherzondo
next, winning in that order, with Albert third.
