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.
And this i- owing to the fidelity with
which the re| -"illation follows the
original scene. During tins. days the
otli ■> : ill sorrowful,hut without any
public dcinonstration of moment until
the t •nebrae of Wednesday afternoon
■n v s lie vi il and shows the church
iu mourning in the solemn chant of
the ollice, the "Lamentations" and
the "Miserere " Thursday checks for
i moment tie course ot grief, ll is
dedicated to the ei mmeinoi at ion of
tin institution of the Blessed Euchar
i i and the si ndirg of the covenant of
love. 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

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

Saturday afternoon to answer at the
in .\t term of court to serious charges.
Friday evening his wife was taken
ill and request! d him togo for a
doctor. He refused togo, but left the
house to escape the woman's plead
ings. During his absence his wife
gave birth to a child. When John re
turned he dragged the woman from
j her bed out to the street and beat her
j into a state of insensibility. A crowd
of three hundred indignant citizens
gathered at the scene and the timely
arrival or the police alone prevented
them from lynching the brute. This

GREEK ELEMENT
CAUSILS TROUBLE
LOWELL, Mass., April 8.-The re
turn to work yesterday of several
Gri ik i mjiloyes of the Lawrence
Hosiery Co. caused trouble at the mill
gates last night and but for active
work of the police might have result
ed seriously. 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. "For sale by Paules & Co.

Do You Enjoy
What You Eat?
You can eat whatever and whenever you
like if you take Kodol. By the use of this
| remedy disordered digestion and diseased
stomachs are so completely restored to
health, and the full performance of their
functions naturally, that such foods as would
1 tie one into a double bow-knot are eaten
without even a "rumbling" and with a posi
j live pleasure and enjoyment. And what is
more these foods are assimilated and
transformed into the kind of nutriment that
is appropriated by the blood and tissues.
Kodol is the only digestant or combination
of digestants that will digest all classes of
food. In addition to this fact, it contains, in
assimilative form, the greatest known tonic
and reconstructive properties.
Kodol cures indigestion, dyspepsia and at|
disorders arising therefrom.

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. Price including
the spraying tube is 75 cents. Druggists
or by mail. The liquid embodies the
1 medicial properties of the solid prepara
tion. Cream Balm is quickly absorlied
by the membrane and does not dry np
J the secretions but changes them to a
natural and healthy character. Ely
