W. bull. Tin; men assembled at lo.Hfl
o'clock yesterday niornlnir, orirunlssetl
and were In session tintjl noon.
They met again In the afternoon,
but" adjourned Bliortly after 2 o'clock
to meet again this morning. The pro
ceedings wore entirely of n. seciet na
ture and beyond the fact that they
are preparing a list of grievance?, to
be submitted to Superintendent C. C.
Hose, they vouchsafed no Informa
tion. The committee from lite Delaware,
T.aekawnnna and "Western collieries
met again yesterday, In the small
loom adjoining tho ball In which the
Delaware and Hudson minors assem
bled. The Lackawanna commlttpe
men have not yet waited upon Super
intendent Loom Is, and will not see him
until they have given all duo consid
eration to the propositions wlch aro
to be submitted.
They spent nil yesterday In working
upon their list and may meet again
today. A meeting of the grievance
committee from the Erie's collieries
will also bo held today.
President Mitchell Coming.
President John Mitchell, of the Tni
tcd Mine Workers of America, will be
in this city Friday. National Com
mitteeman Frederick DHcher gave out
this information yesterday, but de
clined to shed any light upon the
wherefore of Mr. Mitchell's coming.
It is understood, however, that there
arc a number of matters If importance
which will bo attended to by the na
tional president. Committeeman Dil
;hcr lays great stress upon the mass
meetings which aro being nightly held
throughout the district, Both national
and dlhtrlot 'organizers address these
assemblages, of which there are sev
eral caoh night, and feature in their
speeches intimations and advice to the
younger help.
Dllehcr argues that this is the most
potent and intelligent manner of deal
ing with the matter of local strikes,
and that the more apprehensive view
of liis duties taken by the young em
ploye, the less Is the llkillhood of pet
ty difficulties arising.
Queer Anthracite Specimens.
Charles Law, of West Tittston, has
for ninny years been authority on all
things pertaining to the history of this
valley and its products, and especially
upon minerals.
Yesterday he showed to a. Daily
News reporter two specimens which
.ire now on their way to the Smith
honian Institute at "Washington, D. C.
and which later will form a portion of
a collection to lie placed on exhibi
tion at tho Pan-American exposition
at Ruffiilo. One of these specimens,
found in the Butler mine, is purely
foal mid in weight about five pounds,
nnd Its peculiarity is that when ex
posed to tho light, there Is a reflec
tion of all the colors of the rain
bow. ' Tho otlicr was egg shaped and was
found in what is known as a pot-hole
in Wyoming and on thn exact spot
where a cave occurred several years
ago, wrecking the postofllco in that
borough. Of course, there are thous
ands of mineral specimens displayed
in places that bavo been unearthed in
tills valley, but the above are the lat
est finds and are of such value tbnt
they will find a place in the greatest
institution In this country and nt the
nation's capital. Wilkes-Barro News,

"The Utilization of Mine Refuse."
Under this heading Frederick K Sa
ward. In his annual journal, "The Coal
Trade," 1801, quotes from a paper by
James C. Bayles, ai. E the first por
tion being descriptive of the condi
tion of "the veritable mountains of
coal dust and debris," in which "the
volume of available fuel thus accumu
lated almost surpasses estimate," con
cluding with tho following statement;
"Millions of tons of this dust aro
available for conversion on the ground

The man -who would sit on a cake of
Ice to cool off would he considered crazy.
Yet it is a very common thing for a per
son heated by exercise to stand in a cool
draught, just to
cool off. This
is the beginning
of many a cough
which ultimate

bronchial tract
and the lungs.
For coughs in

is no remedy so

There is no alcohol in "Golden Med

from opium, cocaine and other narcotics.
Accept no substitute for "Golden Med

men to be members of the Mine Work

ARTIFICIAL SILK.
Some of It Made from Cotton and
Some from Glue.
Iljney Sutherland in Ainslcc's.
Cotton has often masqueraded as
silk, but it seems rather queer that it
can be made into real silk. The ni
trated cotton is put into a cylinder
with ether-alcohol and slowly revolved
for twelve hours. Then under a pres
sure of forty-flve atmospheres, it is
squirted out of glass tubes whose bore
is 1-1000 of an inch. The air solidifies
the threads as they are carried along
on moving bolts. They are fine as silk
worm filaments and as lustrous. They
take dyes well, but they are so in
flammable as to bo almost explosive,
obviously a fatal defect. Just here
is where the modern chemist shows
the kind of a creature he is and what
his principles are. I don't know what
you think of a man that deliberately,
and to compass his own selfish ends,
lanes advantage of the little weak
nesses of tho elements and Introduces
a tempter into peaceful chemical com
binations to lead astray some mem
bers. Such men exist. They get their
living by Btioh tricks. They oven hold
up their heads and call themselves re
spectable. Here is this nltryl, living
happily, so far as we know, with cellu
lose, and along comes tho chemist and
brings in a smirking, stylish Lothario
of a stilpbydrato of calcium, and away
goes the giddy, deluded nltryl, leaning
on his arm .lust like the poor lady In
"Rast Lynne." All that the deseileil
artificial silk can do after that is to
look pretty. It never plucks up the
courage to explode. Well, it's a queer
world.
One of the uses of this modification
of the cottony, pithy structure found
In all vegetables is to spin it into
threads and char It for the luminous
loops in incandescent lamps. Also,
when woven into a kind of bobblnet
nnd impregnated with the oxides of
thorium and rerlttm. it makes the
mantle of the AVelsbaeh light.
Artificial silk can also he made out
of glue, Tho gelatine is dissolved in
water to the pioper consistency, dyed
nnd forced through tiny glass tubes
as with tho cellulose silk, it is really
nnd animal product like the silkworm
silk, but tho manufacturers have not
yet bepn able to gel Hie appliances for
water-proofing the thread with tho
vapor of formaline that tho silkworm
has which 'secretes the same drug for
the same purpose, Also, it Is qultn dlf.
ficult to dry tho thread milr-kly on tho
rnirylng bells, for you cm easily see
that they cannot bo made verv long
Another difficulty Is that tho silk must
bo dyed beforo'lt is spun, nnd as gela
tine has a way of not being the same
shade for tho samo quality of &tlckt
ness, It is pretty haul to tell what
color you will got till It Is dry, If
tho bpun, tin pads are soaked In the
dye-pot, the stuff thinks that thin Is
11 new way of making wine jelly and
makes all possible haste to change It
self ftom diess goods Into dessert.
Still. It makes a very pretty silk, If
you don't wear It out in a rain stoim.

The contested election case from the
Klghth ward was submitted without
aigument, It came up on a rule to
compel the city of Met an ton to show
cause why probable cause was not
shown to exist. Under the decision of
the Supremo court, it is likely the local
court will have to say that tho city
shall pay the costs.
The rule to show cause why the
name of Sam Jurkovltz shall not be
stricken off the petition in this contest,
was continued. No one particularly
cares now whether or not Jurkovltu's
name was forged to the petition, as he
claims, or whether he put It there him
self, nnd became sorry when Judge
Archhald decided that the netitionets
would have to pay tho costs.
Continuances were granted in tiie
cases of the Commonwealth against S.

Two-thtvds of It Desert Yet Produc
tiveness Is Enormous.
Australia is nearly live-sixths th
aiea of the United States, containing
2,97:1,000 Miunro miles against the 8,602,
000 stiuuro miles of our country. But
while in extent Australia stands as 29
Is to 2fi, in population she is only us 4
to 70. Of her 4,000,000 inhabitants only
200,000 tnv aborigines, whofce number
has been Mendlly declining, not becuiii,e
of hostility 011 the part of the settleis,
hut ns If by inherent degeneracy in the
face of the new conditions-. Moreover,
there are 4.000 Chinese and hnlf-cnsto
Chinese; and in recent years restrictive
measures have been adopted to pre
vent the Ingress of Hindoos aud other
Aslatlu Immigrants. Tho bulk of her
people, of course, ure colonists from
England.
Two-thirds of the Australian conti
nent Is a desert, and ynl her pioduo
tlvoness, is enormous. This land con
talus over one hundred million sheep,
butweon thirty and thirty-five million
head of cattle and horses, it has given
to tho commerce of the world over
JC40O.O0O.000 in gold, copper, coal and

000,000 worth of metals, grains, wool,
beef, tallow, hides and mutton.
Consldcrthe sheep iUoue: Forty years
ago tho output of wool amounted to
8,000,000 pounds. Now, with a record
of 700.000,000 pounds, Austrnllu fur
nishes one-fourth of tho world's wool,
and of such a quality as to make It
one-third of tho total value. It Is la

nod mutton to the home countrj"! but
when cold storage was Intrduced Aus
tralia began her shipments of frozen
mutton which has grown amazingly,
until In 1D00 these exports amounted
to 225,000,000 pounds. Mcnnwhllo Iter
shipments of tinned meats steadily ad
vanced, teaching last year 45,000,000
pounds.
Iook for a moment over her mineral
wealth for a year: Uecnuse of tho war
In tho Transvaal and an Immense min
ing development In West Australia, tho
new federation In 1809. with $60,000,000
output, led the world In output of gold.
By constant gains her silver product
lias come to equal one-ninth of tho
world's supply. For the past year her
total mineral output amounted to near
ly $100,000,000, or $25 to ovety inhabi
tant. Her mineral possibilities In cop
per, tin, load, antimony, iron, quick
silver nnd coal cannot be overesti
mated. As a result of her astonishing fertll
Uj". Australian shipping has reached
the totat of 20,000,000 tons. Her first
railway that from Sydney to 1'arra
matta was opened In 1855. It was
only fourteen miles In length. To-day
she owns 15,000 miles of railways. A
curious light on her prosucrlty Is tho
fact that she has a million items In
her dally mall, In proportion to her
population the highest average In lbs
world.
What is more remarkable Is that this
colossal national wealth has been built
up by only four millions of people. As
a consequence, average Individual
wealth in Australia Is the highest in
the wot Id, For instance, lot us com
pare tho child with the parent Aus
tralia with England. Australia's rev
enue for tills year will probably exceed
$150,000,000. which sum Is nearly one
third that of England's. But with
only one-tenth of England's popula
tion, Australia is, therefore, individual
ly three and a third times richer than
the mother country. Then there are
the savings .banks, with $700,000,000 In
deposit. This gives $150 per bend to
tho people of Australia, again the
highest average in the world.

Jonas Long's Sods
Ladies come' to our Millinery Store from far and
near to get ideas of styles. Wo have many imitators but
no rivals in this region in vast extent of stock, in variety
of models and inflexible moderation of price. Our Milli
nery Department is equipped with such experience and
taste that no mistakes are made in adapting the correct
designs to suit faces, and particularly those difficult to
satisfactorily frame. One trained to study such matters
is far more capable of deciding the suitability of a hat
than is the wearer, who may not know her possibilities
of beauty. Often it is the hat which gives the touch of
distinction to a lady's appearance, while there is nothing
in the world which can make her such a ghastly failure
as unbecoming headgear.
A limited number of hats may be seen in our win
dows which are copied in our own workrooms from
famous Paris models; the originals would cost you from
25.00 up; these are marked 5.00.
