MONTOUR AM BRIG AN FRANK C. ANGLE. Proprietor. Danville, Pa.. Dec. 4, 1902 BEFUSED TO STATE PROFITS SORANTON, Pa., Dec. 3.—The An thracite Coal Commission resumed its session here after several days' recess to permit both sides to the controversy to come to a settlement, which they failed to do. The failure of the oper ators and miners to effect an agree ment between themselves adds new interest to the work of the commission which will now be watched closely by capital and labor. A happy solu tion of the coal problem by the com mission would be a complete justifica tion for similar settlements in the future when the forces of labor and capital were drawn in a bitter con troversy. Attorney Harrow, for tho miners, appealed to the human interest side of tho question today by producing on the stand several miners, their wives and children. In opening tho proceedings shortly after 10 o'clock Justice Gray said that there had evidently been a misunder standing as to the purpose of the re cent adjournment. Some of the parties to the issue took it to mean, he said, that a settlement should be secured out of court. This was not the case, continued Justice Gray, the adjourn ment was taken so as to come to some conciliatory agreement, which would have to be approved by tho commis sion. Justice Gray further stated that the commission had decided that no party could withdraw its side of the case without the consent of the other ~ide. The commission, ho said, de sired to have the field of inquiry thoroughly covered. There was a long argument on the admission of the profit and loss ac counts. Tho independent operators said that they would not submit these accounts and Harrow replied that if it was admitted that a man was en titled fo fair wages whether the com pany was making money or not, he would agree that it was cf no purpose to have the profit and loss accounts submitted. If, however said Mr. Darrow, the companies in the proceed ings insinuate that they are unable to pay an increased wage, the submis sion of su 'i accounts would be neces sary. Xliis was the first instance where any of the parties to the issue had bali.e 1 in the presentation of evideuce. John Mitchell, president of the United Mine Worker-, was re-balled to the stand as the first witness today. In answer to a question of Mr. Har row Mr. Mitchell said that from his nwn he found tli-it if file demands for a twenty per cent, in crease in wages were granted, the in crease of labor cost on each ton of coal would be about seventeen cents a ton. Mr. Mitchell said that since the strike the companies had raised the price of coal 50 cents a ton, and this, figured on last year's production of 66,000,000 tons would mean an increase of about $30,000,000 to tbo company. At this point several miners were sworn in as witnesses and excused for tho day. A photographer was called after Mr. Mitchell had been excused and offered in evidence photographs of miners' homes taken in the region. W. H. Dettrey, a "real live miner," was called and every ono became interest ed He was from Nuremburgand was employed in a colliery of Coxe Bros. Bettrey had been a miner for seven teen years. Witness said he was the president of his local. Objection was made to Bettrey's testimony on tbo ground that Coxe brothers were not parties to the agreement, though they had agreed to abide by the award of the commission. Bettrey was per mitted to continue until the commis sion could determine the status of Coxe brothers before the commission. Witness told of tho system of dock age and that he could show that on occasions there had been as much as forty per cent, dockage. Besides the regular docking boss other superin tendents had the right to dock and fre quently a miner was docked several times for the one oflens'. Bettrey said that as a miner he made last year j about $350. How's This. WeofTer One Hundred liollars Reward for any case of ( at ;ii rii thai can not be cured by Hall's Catarrh 11 C. Ifurman and wife, of this <-ii AT THE THEATRE "THE FLAMING ARROW." Uiilike the majority of sensational melodramatic productions," The Flam ing Arrow" which was presented by the ludiau actress Go-\Von-Go-Mo liawk, and company at the Chestnut street Opera House last night, was en joyed and liberally applauded by the audience down stairs as well as "the gallery gods." The plot while deal ing with soldier life among tbo un civilized Indians in the far west, is cleverly woven and the story is told in a decidedly interesting and pleasing manner that is devoid of tho objec tionable points ot the majority of western plays. The play i> not as might naturally be expected, a blood and thunder pro duction, abounding in gun-shots and other things, unpleasant to an audi eueo, but is a faithful picture of life on the frontier and is 0110 of tho fa mous Government posts. It tells a beau tiful love story, is replete with thrill ing scenes, and its characters are all taken from living prototypes, true in character and costumes. • In tho second act. in which an Indian Council is held, there is a remarkable realistic reproduction of a council lire, with flames leaping upward apparent ly in the most natural manner. The weird Indian music and chants —the unearthly yells and warwhoops, the fantastic movements of the ghost danc ers and a total eclipse of the moon,all tend to make this act one of interest and novelty. Tj Miss Mohawk as "White Eagle" gave a truly artistic rendition of the part. She displayed talent in every thing sho did and carried through a difficult role without overdoing it, from first to last. Charles Chares as Colonel Fremont, Guy Hackney as Snow Ball, Frank Pattou as Lieuten ant Brightly, the traitor; Wilbur Col lins as Senor Pasedo, a treacherous Mexican, were very satisfactory in their respective roles. The bugling of W. 11. Kiley, who played Seargent True or the U. S. A., was great. Hel en Vaugh was seen as Mary Freemont, the heroine, and was capital in tho part. The Indian Chief Ga-he-Guo as Black Eagle, the pale faces' true friend, also distinguished himself. — Sunbury Baily. "The Flaming Arrow" will be the attraction at the Banvillo Opera Hoi; e tonight.

"The story shows the designing villain, who is at last overthrown with the aid of a light hearted, fun loving and shrewd Irish lad, is told in chaste language, clear ly and well, with considerable attrac tive embellishment in incident and scenery. The interest never flags, but grows gradually and legitimately to the final denouncement in tbo last act, when the opportune arrival of the light hearted Irish lad puts an end to everything.

Hut Maro is more than a magician, lie is a musician, a veritable, virtuoso on innumerable instruments so that ho is able to introduce in In - < nfertain ment a musical programme of delight ful variety, appealing to \ ry one who loves the magical influence of harmony. And more than this ho is an artist of marked ability and the pictures drawn by him on the stage are ex ecuted with marvelous precision, rap idity, dash and finish. And again, last but not least, Maro is probably the greatest exponent of the art of shadowgraphy now before the public in which he produces life like silhouettes with two wonderful naked bauds. After an evening with Maro one unable to determine whether the versa tile artist is most enjoyable as a magi cian, musician, artist or shadowgra phist for he is simply great in each of these four roles. Prof. DeMotte, the Noted Lecturer, at the Opera House Last Nitrht. Prof. John DeMotte, the noted lect urer, appeared for the third time be fore a Danville audience at the Opera House last evening. Prof. DeMotte in his two previous lectures,"The Secret of Character Building" and "Python Eggs" made such a lasting impression oujiis hearers that the mere announce ment of his last night's subject "A Plea tor Posterity or the Problem of Heredity" was enough to insure a large audience. This subject like the others was a scientific one and took much research and time to prepare it."The Problem of Heredity" has been given much thought by scientists and the simplicity of the explanation of this absorbing topic last evening made clear many tilings to the ordi nary mind. The lecture was profusely illustrat ed with excellent stereopticon pictures It was a most praiseworthy number and was in keeping with the excellent course Mr. Derr lias given us. Pre vious to the lecture the High School quartette, an organization of much merit, sang a number of selections which were very much enjoyed. Lehigh Men Proud of Their Team.

The illustrations show the elevation und general plan for a farm fruit evap orator that, according to an Orange ,Tndd Farmer correspondent, will stand tlie test. He says: It will remain on the farm as a permanent tixture and *N. N 6 *4" Jwor Jjoor EXTERIOIt OF FRUIT KVAPOKATOR. money maker if rightly constructed and intelligently handled. This drier represents but one section of a large commercial machine. We have han dled seventeen of tliese, all in one row and all fell from one source of heat, and that driven its entire length by hot air blasts. In this section we show a brick wall nicely laid up, and the tire door is simply the end of a common old box stove, in size about 3 feet long, feet high and 10 or 18 inches broad. The legs should be re moved and the stove placed flat on the ground. The pipe should run straight back and come out at the rear of the wall, low enough down, of course, to prevent danger of lire to the wooden parts. It should then extend far enough up to give good draft. The lirst cut shows the drier as It should iook when ready for business. The wall is »; feci square and 2'/i feet in height. The upper structure is also C> by »!, with posts four feet high. The door should be double that is, two doors instead of one—and should lie made so that crowding will lie neces sary in closing. They should be built so that when opened a clear entrance of 1 by 1 feet is exposed. A car tilled with trays is shown in the second cut. This car is a perfect cube; dimensions, 3 feet and (5 inches all round. II is open at the bottom, top and sides, thus allowing free cir culation of heat. This car is not abso lutely necessary, but is very conven ient. If the car is used, an iron frame running from the front door of the drier to the rear of the same will have to be supplied to serve as a track for the car. The trays as seen In the car are interchangeable, and necessarily so, as fruit will often dry faster at the bottom of the car than at the top, so that it will be seen that a change of position can be easily made, thus se curing a uniform lot of fruit. We favor the segment, or rounded roof on account of tightness. The econ omy in running the drier Is in being able to confine the heat. Thus the en tire chamber must be airtight. In place of the ear one can construct frames inside the drier to hold the trays and get just as good results. Some w ill wonder how this car is to be handled when out of tho drier. We purposely left off the platform that should be built just over the firebox door to better show the building. It will be noticed in the first cut that a ventilator is marked. Sometimes odors from scorched fruits will gather in the chamber, and if confined for a time tiie entire batch will be damaged thereby. The trays are made by either ncortising or halving the corners. Care should be taken in this work, as a • "" "j! 'lhj -"* Ijj i "-"""""jj CAli SHOWING FRUIT TRAYS. sticking tray is a poor tiling when one is in a hurry. Cover these frames with wire gauze or tray netting. Wire is best. Common 2 by -I stuff is sufficient for the frame of the drier, but the cover ing should lie of the best dry timber | that can lie found. It should be nice ly matched and when put on should lie painted at once.

The late census bulletin on the coun try's dairy interests Is out and shows a most wonderful development of this interest during the past twenty years, or since the date of the establishment of the creamery system. There are now 9,355 butter and cheese I ictorh» in operation, lowa leading, with 8-14; Wisconsin, 7SB; New York, 740; Penn sylvania, (519; Minnesota, 540, and Illinois, 405, strictly butter factories or creameries, and New York leading with 1,314 cheese factories. The total capital employed is $30,508,015, and the value of the product is $131,100. 1!77, a gain of lot! per cent in ten years. But all this represents only a fraction of the benefit which the de velopment of the dairy business has brought to the country, the increased fertility of tho farms, the enormous meat interests and the more scien tific and improved methods of agri culture which have ever followed in the wake of the dairy interest, repre senting a gain in agricultural wealth which it is impossible to compute.
