Welsh' Miners Win.
While tho decision of an English court
can have no bearing on conditions and
questions in our land, yet it is worthy
of note, as revealing the drift of judicial
opinion, that it has been decided to be
Vithln the law of Great Britaiu for coal
miners to order the stoppage of work
whenoyer they please to do so.
It seems that over in Wales tho union
m ners have made a practice of carry
ing out the plan recontly proposed for
the anthracite region of ordering a sus
pension of work at tho mines, for tho
purposo of curtailing the oporators from
laying in largo stocks of coal. The
idea is to protect the miners from being
handicapped, in the case of strike,
by large stocks of coal on hand.
It has been a practice In the past for
Welsh minors and operators to agree on
"stop" days, but the minors recently
look the inattor into thoir own hands,
and ordered a supension of work with
out consulting the employers.
The operators' association took offense
at the action and brought suit against
the Miners' Federation for $500,000
damages. Justice Bingham has just
decidod tho case iu favor of the de
fendants, on the ground that thoro was
no malice in the action of the men, who
declared in court that they believed a
reduction of the output would be of
benefit to both parties.•
The justice's decision placos enormous
power in the hands of the uniou and
tho miners are, consequently, In good
spirits. It would be woll for American
miners to keep a close watch on tho
practical effect of tho plan's operation
on the welfaro of the Welsh miners, to
the end that they may learn whethor
or not it would be wiso for them to
attempt to regulate tho producton of
coal, as has been suggested. The ex
periences of others along tho same lino
ought to be valuable.
Schuylkill Democratic Ticket.
Tho returns from Saturday's Demo
cratic primaries in Schuylkil county arc
now noarly all In. This was the second
primary election held under the new
rules and tho vote polled was fully live
times greater than that of last >yoar.
The heavy vote polled was brought
about by tho fact that thoro wore sixty
live candidates In the field.
James W. Ryan, of Pottsville, Is nomi
nated for congress, defeating ex-Con
gressman James B. Reilly, of Fottsvillo,
and Thomas J. Iliggins, of Shenandoah.

cured tho state senatorial nomination In
the Thirtieth district. Democratic
leaders worked hard to defeat Senator
Higgles on account of his record at tho
last legislature.
James J. Moran, of Pottsville, Is
nominated for district attorney, al
though he was opposed by nearly the
whole organization. Moran Is attorney
for tho United Mine Workers and had
the support of the labor union.
J. H. Nichtor, of Pottsville, who was
also backed by tho striking miners, Is
nominated by an overwhelming majority
for recorder. George Ople, of Donald
son, and W. 11. Bresslor, of Yorkvlllo,
aro nominated for commissioners. E.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.
The cleaner the culture the better
the crop.
Careful transplanting Insures supe
rior growth.
An occasional supply of weak ma
nure water is often beneficial to house
plants.
Rosin and tallow In equal parts make
an excellent covering for wounds on
fruit and other trees.
When fruit Is to be sent to market, It
will bo best to make all arrangements
possible In advance.
Keep all dead and faulty limbs cut
off the fruit and ornamental trees If
for nothing else but the looks.
The man who sends poor fruit to
market Is always the one who com
plains of the price. The market Is rare
ly If ever overstocked with choice
fruits.
By gathering up and burning all the
rubbish 111 the orchurd, the garden and
the small fruit patch n large number of
Injurious Insects may be destroyed.
In pruning never cut out small twigs
or spurs growing on largor limbs.
These uro the spurs for fruit, and often
the first crop of fruit Is destroyed by
cutting away these fruit spurs.

UNCOOKED FOOD.
Human SlckncNtt Snll to Uc Largely
Due to the Kitchen.
The advocates of uncooked food say
that, however well the cooking is done,
It ought not to be done at all. They
claim that the minute cells which go to
make up the organization of the tex
ture to be eaten should not be broken
up by culinary processes, that they
should go into the stomach as nature
intended them—raw and ready for di- !
gestion.
They notice that animals, which sel
dom eat cooked food, are u hundred
Umes less likely to be sick tliun men
and women, that on invalid brute is a
rarity, while more or less ailing human
beings ure In every nelglil>orhood.
One physician who has adopted this
method of eating altogether and is ud
vlsing and teaching others to do so
claims to have leu mod a lesson from
his horses. "While I was growing more
and more sickly," he uvers, "and 'run
ning down' rapidly my horses were
sleek, fat and as healthy us ever. I at
last made up my mind to eat the same
kind of things that they did and have
since been as healthy as they."
There can be no doubt that a great
deal of disease Is caused by eating
the wrong thing and often too much
even of the right thing. The products
of nature's laboratory arc probably us
nearly light as she can make them,
but when "civilization" gets its hand in
they run at leust a risk of being spoiled
and unlit for the human stomuch, how
ever pleasant to the palate.
In the llrst place, they are often adul
terated, even before they get to the
cook. In order to preserve them or to
make them more attractive in appear
ance or pleasing to the taste and at any
rate more profitable to the money till
the dealer is tempted to "doctor" them
with various products of the drug
store and by other means of which the
consumer has no idea.
The advocates of this plan of eating
claim that undue stimulus does not
lurk In liquids alone and that cooking
often makes food so stimulating to the
human system as to produce a bad
state of the nerves. They abjure the
free use of salt, pepper and other sub
stances used as "relishes," claiming
that the same are little better than poi
son. They designate ull sorts of men
tal and physical ailments as having
boon produced by cooked food.—"Un
cooked Food Movement" in Will Curl
ton's Magazine.
How Slower* Arc
The highest figure ever paid to a
singer at Covent Garden was the sum
of $48,000 paid to Mine. Adelina Pattl
in 1870 for sixteen appearances, or $3,-
000 for each appearance. Mine. Pattl
has, however, beaten this record In her
American tours when she has ob
tained, as he did at New Orleans in
the eighties, us much as SO,OOO a night, j
M. Jean de Heszke holds the record
for mnle singers, his contract for six
teen appearances being $30,000, while
the famous Polish tenor never fails
to stipulate for free hotel expenses
and a certain sum for carriage and
horses.
The famous Lasnlle lias also drawn
his $2,000 a performance, and during
the golden jubilee of 1.887 he ap
peared with the two I)e Iteszkes at one
time on the stage, the aggregate of
their nightly salaries amounting to
over $5,000.
Track I.n>lnw Mnclilne.
A now machine for laying railroad
tracks is being used in I'cuusylvauia.
It has proved itself capAble? with n
crew of forty men, of putting down
two miles of track in a day. The
track layer has a huge crane sixty
feet long which projects forward over
the road, and It hauls behind it a train
of sixteen fiat ears loaded witli ties and
rails. A continuous double Hue of the
latter moves forward over rollers and
carries the ties witli it. iioth rails
and ties ore seized at the proper point
by the machinery and placed 011 the
road in front of the train, where they
shortly form part of the track over
which it passes.
A Policeman Artist.
One of tho curiosities of this year's
London Itoyal academy exhibition is
j a small landscape, a herd of sheep on
a Yorkshire upland, which lmngs "011
the lino." To be "011 the line" is a
much coveted distinction, as the hang
ing committee always gives tho best
pictures a position there. Tills land
scape which, of course, was selected
without any knowledge of the Identity
of Its painter, is the work of Police
Constable Jones, an ordinary member
of tho Leeds constabulary. lie is en
tirely self taught. Police Constable
Jones has 110 idea of quitting tho po
lico force.
WlPfloNS SyNloni For AlnMku.
Government stations on the main
land of Alaska are to be connected by
wireless telegraphy, uccordiug to a
contract let by the board appointed by
the chief signal officer of the army to
the Marconi company. The station
will be in operation by the middle of
October, and ultimate communication
with the state of Washington is ex
pected, thus putting Alaska for the
first time In direct communication with
the rest of the world.
I H'ET'KAbHIUNS.
Dressing children in pure white Is
more fashionable this year than it lias
been for some seasons past.
Not a few of the newest evening
waists have soft transparent folds go
ing around the figure with horizontal
lines of lace insertion showing be
tween.
Crepe de chine and liberty satins and
silks are much used this season in
place of the more perishable chiffons
and tulles for many of the tucked
blouse vests and undersleeves.
Old rose is a color that is very often
forgotten in selecting gowns for either
day or evening wear, but It often
proves more becoming to women, ei
ther fair or dark, than either pure
pink, cherry red, blue, gray or green.
Long half fitting cloaks of black, un
filled taffeta, silk or peau de soie,
faultless in outline and effect, are
worn over gowns of white liberty satin
foulard, white pique, veiling, mohair,
eta mine, etc. The greater portion of
these garments are open down the
front.
