EMPLOYES 15ACK TO THE MINES The striking anthracite mine labor ers at the Luke Fiddler colliery of tin Mineral Railroad & Mining Company at Sliamokin, controlled by the Penn sylvania Railroad, have a cept d Ihe nltimatum of tho officials of the com pany that they work nine hours a day, as prescribed by the Anthracite Coal Commission, or not atali, and return ed to work Tuesday. Ever since the award ot the t om mission, fixing a nine-hour work day for ten hours' pay at tlie old rate of wages for all company men about the mines whose compensation is r gulat ed bv the day, went into ■ fleet, con siderable dissatisfaction lias existid among this cla-- of employes, an<l those of the Luke Fiildler colliery and several of the Reading's collieries le fused togo to work, tying up the col lieries. The principal c< ntentieii of the mi n was again«t working nine hour- on Saturdav, as against live hours Hereto fore. All sort- of argilm< nts were ad vanced by the repre- Mat Iv. - of the mine laborers in support of tie ir con tention, they claiming, among other things, that under the Stat law Sat urday was i legal half-holiday. While this wa- admitted by the officials, they declared that th i was nothing in that law preventing a man from working as much longeron that day as h nliaseil, and that the law, while prescribing it- a halt-holiday,did not provide for a full days pay. Fur thermore, they were told that the Commission's award pn -eril < 1 a nine liour day for that claas of labor, and that a nine-hour day, including Satur days,it must be or the nun would not be permitted togo to work. Reading officials declined to discuss tho situation so far as it affected that company's collieries, hut if was gen erally believed that President Baer will assume the -anio firm stand as that taken by the Pennsylvania officials.

'THREE GREAT DAYS OP HOLV WEEK Today ill •• first of the three great days of Holy Week -Holy Thursday, romorrnw will be observed a- Good Ei id > v followed the isi\i day by Holy Saturday. These days commemorated by the Catholic chinch, will be de voutly observed in Danville as they w ill he the woi Id over. Each of these days has a character ot life and living acti HI, winch forms tie- \ rv e-sinct of dramatic represen i inn and an atteuiivi oiiserver will i ot fail to notice the progressive and deepening tone of feeling which the -u.'ei --iv( days are calculated to pro duce with such ' ntr. -is and partial alb viat i -lis as at. in • , -sary to give il vigor and reserve iis poetical power.

The sacerdotal vestments are white; the "Gloria in Excelsis" is sung and everything indicates some mitigation of growing sorrow ; for -nil the vein of religious melancholy may be distinctly traced running through all the office. When this tribute ot more joyful gratitude has been paid i very hairier has been brok en down to grief; the altars are strip ped not only of every ornament hut of the daily ordinary coverings and with them every part of the church is hated and uncovered. The purple color worn on Sunday is changed to the deeper hue of black and then the church i- left without her incense or taper, mourning as on the loss of an only-begotten son. Good Friday is -pent in this abandonment of u lis peak ing sorrow The tir.-t dawn of consolation is al lowed to appear on Holy Saturday when the tidings of the Resurrection are communicated. The Alleluia is an nounced and in the Gloria of the mass the organ and bells mingle with hu man voices. Such are the principles that pervade this sacr; d office of Holy Week. Danger ot Colds aud Grip. The greatest danger from cold and griy is th»re resulting in pneumonia. If reasonable care is used, however, aud (ha inh' 111 ins ('oiigh Remedy taken.all danger will be avoided. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy for these diseases we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pneumonia,which shows sonclusively t!:at i: is a certain preventive of that dangerous disease. It will cure a cold or an attack of the grip in less time th in any other other treatment. It is plea-ant and safe to take. For sale by Panics iV (\>. A Fit-nil Incarnate.

As it was, four Greeks were pliiced under arrest, charged with obstructing the streets. A woman figured prominently in the demonstration, leading a great body of men through the street to the point where the police were encountered. The men taken into custody were each held in £2OO bail. LOWELL, Mass., April B.—Noth ing of a disturbing nature transpired v\ lieu the gates at the Lav. r< lice Mills were opened at <"> :•'■<) o'clock this morn ing. A large crowd of Greeks hover ed in the immediate vicinity, but the turbulent spirits were checked by the presence of a large detail of police officers. Trouble is expected today, and the operatives will be carefully guarded while going to and from work. Dissatisfaction because of several of their number are among those who have returned to work is the direct cause of the disorderly sentiment now prevailing among the Greeks. Labor leaders are much concerned at the serious aspect and are exerting every effort to prevent a breach of the law. The State Board of At (titration will start its official investigation of the strike next week. A large number of Poles left the city today, enroute for Pennsylvania. They will endeavor to secure work iu the coal mines. Governor Bates has p> rsonally in terested himself in the strike and it is thought lie will make an effort to effe t an amicable settlement. Last night a body of police in solid front from curb to curb drove a thous and noisy Greek mill workers through the streets of Lowell fnrneirly a mile and prevented what might have de veloped into a riot growing out of the return to work of a number of ring spinners at the Lawrence Hosiery Mill who lefi work a week ago in sympathy with the strike orih r of the Textile Counci I.

OUR PIGEON FANCIERS. ! Something entirely new in jiions were tube suen in the window of Len iger Bros. drug store yesterday. This ! was a pair of Dnn Colored English | Flyers, which are somewhat of a de parture in pigeons, in a tew points suggesting altogether another bird. They are perfect models of grace and beauty and combine with'all the iu- Istinct and intelligence of the common I' pigeon, remarkable powers of flight and endurance. I A. J. Leniger in an enthusiastic i pigeon fancier and his loft comprises many very valuable birds. George Stickle, Centre street, also has a loft of homers, several of which have line . records. Both of the fanciers are pre paring for a season of rare sport and may begin to fly their pigeons next , week. Pigeon flying is conducted under an , ideal racing system, the lofts being supplied with a self-locking clock, which registers the arrival of the , j birds. Races as a general thing, take j place under the rules of the National Association to which the competing , lofts belong, and it is to these district races that the most interest attaches. A hundred mile stretch is usually se . lected, as between Jersey City and Wilmington, Del. A competent man is left in the Soutlu rn city to start the birds and as soon as this is accom plished he telegraphs to the race sec retary the time the birds were set free and the direction of the wind at : that time. Each competing loft owner knows about what time to expect his entries 1 and is on the lookout for them in the receiving part of the loft with a pat- I out official metal clock in hand. These : ;clocks are ingenious contrivances. m When the first bird arrives the loft owner as quickly as he possibly can, I >li]is the counter band from the leg of the pigeon into a receptacle at one end lof the clock and closes a slide which | stops the time piece and locks it. The I''counter band" deposited in the clock was placed on tie" bird's leg by the liberator and bears a number or ' letter unknown to the pigeon's owner or any one else but the official. Only ' the race officials can open the clock. I The clocks have two separate coin I partments, each of which keeps time, i the second being so arranged as to ■ enable the loft owner to register the arrival of any birds which may follow j the first one. SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP. Cured by One Bottle of Chamberlain's Remedy. When I had an attack of grip last | winter (the second one) 1 actually i cured myself with one bottle of Cham iberlain's Cough Remedy," says Frank I W. Perry, Editor of the Enterprise, I Shortsville, N. Y. "This is the honest j truth. lat all times kept from cough j ing myself to pieces by taking a tea ' i spoonful of this remedy and when the coughing spell would come on at night j 1 would take a dose and it seemed i that in the briefest interval the cough would pass off and I would goto I sleep perfectly free from cough and [ its accompanying pains. To say that the remedy acted as a most agreeable surprise is putting it very mildly. I had no idea that it would or could knock out the grip, simply because 1 had never tried it for such a purpose, I hut it did, and it scemt d with the second attack of coughing the remedy i caused it to not only be of less dura -1 tion, but the pains were far less se : vere, and I had not used the contents of one bottle before .Mr. Grip had bid ! me adieu.

Hammond represent ing the railroaders at Altoona and other towns near by whose wages have been attached for debt has recieved word that the Supreme Court of West Virginia had handed down its deci sion in the appeal of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company from tin judgment of the Circuit Court in proceedings to ! prevent the Rogers Collecting Agency and Justice of the Peace Z. D. Phillips, ot Wheeling, from further prosecuting about eight hundred at tachments against the Pennsylvania Railroad Company employes in Penu , sylvania. The Supremo Court, in its opinion > handed down,decided that the Justice of the Peace had no jurisdiction to at tach the wages of the railroad em ployes outside of West Virginia, therefore had no right to attach claims iu the State of Pennsylvania By this decision it means that next will follow the release of sixty thou sand dollars in wages which is being held by the many attachments, and that this settles the question for all time. Just when the money will be dis bursed by the company to the em ployes,can not be learned at this time, but it is the general opinion that it will be but a short length of time, in order that the matter may be finally completed as soon as is possible. Cigarette Smoking Prohibited. Instructions positively forbidding the use of cigarettes by those employ ed in the passenger service on the New York division of the Reading railroad have been issued by G. B. M. Fullmore, passenger trainmaster. Dis missal from the employ of the road is the penalty for failure to obey the mandate. "Men who smoke cigarettes are apt to have lapses of memory, and it is not safe to trust the lives of passen gers in the hands of persons who have that failing." This was the explana tion given Thursday of the new in structions to the men. An officer of the road said that the antagonism to cigarette smoking on the part of the company is by no means new ; that on the contrary, au order forbidding the practice has long been in force. But Mr. Fullmere's mandate for the first time makes it plain to the men that they will not be retained iu the service if they offend in this matter. The instructions not only forbid the use of cigarettes by the men while on duty, but also when they are off duty. Officers of the road say that the com pany has always refused to employ men known to be cigarette smokers. Generally the question is asked of an applicant for a place whether he lias the cigarette habit. The forefingers of the applicant are scrutinized and if there is found the stain of cigarette he is rejected. To accommodate those who are partial to the use of atomizers in apply liquids into the nassal passages for catarrhal trouble, the proprietors prepare Ely's Liquid Cream Balm.
