COMING COAL CONFERENCE.
Mr. Mitchell Arranging Statistics of
Hard Coal Industry. "
New York, Feb. 13. President John
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers
of America, who arrived here Sunday
night to prepare for the conference
on Thursday between the mine work
ers of the anthracite region and their
employers, spent the duy arranging
his program for the meeting.
The miners' president brought with
him from Indianapolis a large trunk
filled with documents and statistics re
lating to the hard coal Industry In
Pennsylvania, which he will use at
the conference. He remained In his
room at the Ashland House practically
till day and 'had no visitors of any
prominence.
Mr. Mitchell declined to discuss the
anthracite coal situation so far as It
related to the miners' union in ad
vance of the meeting with the opera
tors. Neither would he talk of the
conditions in the West. He is keep
ing in close touch with the situation
In the various bituminous coal fields
and receives reports by telephone and
telegraph.
Mr. Mitchell was in conference last
night with the presidents of the three
anthracite districts, Messrs. T. D.
NIchoIls, William H. Dettrey and John
Fahy, who will take up most of his
time between now and Thursday in
the work of perfecting the demands or
propositions to be laid before the mine
operators.
The outlines of those demands were
drafted by the three executive boards
of the hard coal fields at a series of
meetings held last week at Wilkes
barre.. These demands have not leen
made public.
Philadelphia and Reading Coal ' and
Iron company will be here today and it
is understood will meet some of the
officers of some other coal carrying
roads.

clination north and is moving south
westerly. On Feb. 1G the comet will

Camelopardalis; on Feb. 20th on the
middle of the neck between the head
and breast; on Feb. 24th on the breast
of that constellation and In right as
cension bIx hours 17 minutes, declina
tion north 74 degrees 35 minutes. The
comet may be observed with a moder
ate sized telescope.
One War to Look at It.
"A man always gets on easier by
taking his wife's advice."
"Yes," answered Mr. Meekton. "When
things turn out badly there isn't so
much said."
m KOY PLOWS
win prizes whenever exhibited. We can
(live testimonials from some of the best
larmers in the United States, who say
'"the Le Roy draws eauiet. holds easier,
and does belter work in all conditions oft
soil than any other plow used." Made by
Le Roy Plow Co., Le Roy, N. Y. They

There Is not much dlllleulty lu marry
ing oCf a daughter In Korea. Where
there nr defects, such as feeble health,
pural.vsls, deformities, etc., nu expert
Intermediary who knows how to con
con! them Is employed. It is her busi
ness to make the girl preseutable to the
parents of the suitor. As the bride
groom does not see the bride until the
day of marriage, when It Is too late to
recoil, ho Is obliged to make the best of
the situation, lu marrying Korean
girls are not exempt from contributing
to the support of the family. This ap
plies to the grmule dame as well as the
humblest peasant. Ladles of rank who
have become Impoverished and are
obliged to support themselves may earn
a livelihood by knitting or rearing allk
wontis. .
