MINERS GATHERING FOR CONVENTION Advance Guard of Delegates Has Already Reached Indianapolis.

(National Ncwi Aasoctatlon) INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 13. The advance guard of delegates to attend the annual convention of the United Mine Workers of America to meet here Tuesday has reached here. The convention promises to be one of the most Important as well as the largest gathering in the history of the organisation. It will be attended by delegates representing the tens of thousands of miners who labor In the immense bituminous fields, which stretch from West Virginia and central Pennsylvania northwwest to British Columbia and southwest to Texas and Oklahoma. The anthracite miners of Pennsylvania are expected to be more largely represented than at previous conventions, owing to he fact that the wage agreement of the anthracite miners will expire this year as well as that of the bituminous workers. It Is probable that the convention will last two weeks or longer. The matter of a new wage agreement will be thoroughly discussed, though final action in the matter will as usual be left to the committee which will meet in jolt conference with the operators next month. Important Matters. In addition to the ordinary routine business the convention will have many matters of Importance to consider. It Is generally conceded that the report of the tellers of the recent national election for officers will show the re-election of John P. White, of Iowa as president over Tom L. Lewis, his opponent, Edwin Perry, the secretary-treasurer, had no rival for the office. One of the questions that is being discussed among the delegates already on the ground Is whether the convention will rescind the resolution that placed John Mitchell before the alternative of giving up his union card or resigning from the National Civic Federation. Mr. Mitchell, it will be recalled, recently made charges that the last miners' convention was "packed" and to that fact was due the adoption of the resolution. The question of renewing the agreement with the operators, however, will overshadow all other matters before the convention. The present agreement will expire March 31 next. No attempt is made to conceal the fact that a general strike of both the bituminous and anthracite miners is among the possi-bil1ties..-The situation in the anthracite field is the more alarming, as a Btrike of the hard coal miners is always more serious In Its consequences than a suspension of work by the bituminous miners. The district organizations in the anthracite field have held their separate conventions. These gathertugs adopted resolutions demanding ffc tM- njt. increase in wages, a decrease of about 11 per cent, in working boars without a corresponding decrease in pay, payment by weight exclusively, and other concessions. Plant of Operators. Tte operators have not given any Offlckl notice Of their Intentions, but It is well known they have no intentlonof granting these demands.

Cecil, Big; Cabin, Oklahoma, formerly housekeeper for Indiana Reform School for Boys, writes: "Six years ago I had la grippe, which was followed by systemic catarrh. The only thing I used was Pertma and Manalin. and X. have been in better health the last three years than for years before. -.. , "I give Peruna all the credit for my ood health."

No Cascaret User Ever Has Headache

A 10 cent box will keep your liver, stomach and bowels clean, pure and fresh for months. Sick headache, bllliousness, dizziness, coated tongue, foul taste and foul breath always trace them to torpid liver, delayed fermenting food in the bowels or sour, gassy stomach. Poisonous matter clogged in the intestines, instead of being cast out of the system is re-absorbed into the blood. When this poison reaches the delicate brain tistue it causes congestion and that iM, throbbing, sickening headache Salts, cat! rtic pills, oil and purgative watert. force a passageway for a day or ti.o yes but they don't take the potions out and have no enect up on the liver or stomach. Ctscarets immediately cleanse and regulate the stomach, remove the sour, undigested and fermenting food and foul gasses, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out of the system all the decomposed waste matter and poisons in the intestines and bowels. A Cascaret tonight will surely straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep a 10-cent box from your druggist means inside cleanliness and a clear head for months. Ask any of the millions of Cascaret users if they ever have headache. the mine workers argue that the increased cost of living has made necessary a wage increase, the operators hold that the "sliding scale" created by the Strike Commission has given the miners advantage of every advance in the price of coal, and that no flat advance in wages is possible under present conditions. The Conciliation Board promises to be a bone of contention also. This is composed of three representatives of the mine workers and three representatives of the operators. It was creat;ed by the Strike Commission to settle differences as they arise from time to time. The miners declare that the , methods of work of the Conciliation Board are cumbersome and impractical. A number of the same concessions which the miners demanded unsuccessfully before the strike commission will be demanded again. Notable among these is the so-called "check-off," system under which the operators deduct from the miners' pay checks the union dues and turn the amount deducted over to the officers of the union. As this involves the recognition of the United Mine Workers by the operators it has been steadily opposed by the latter. Another demand which the mine workers will present is that whatever agreement is made it shall last one year only. This has been demanded over and over again, but the operators have always stood out for a longer I term. The miners believe that the present time is well selected for pressing their demands. In the first place it Is unusual for the wage agreements in both the hard and sofe coal regions to expire simultaneously then, too. it is a presidential election year. This gives the mine workers' organization a strong weapon, because by simultane ous action in several mining regions tne ieadrs could create a condition approaching a fuel famine. os mere Sweeps over the Land Nearly Epidemic Catarrh. of the Grip Say. After Effects of Grip. Mr. K. Esveld, Company ."B," 21st Michigan V.

"I suffered for years from effects of the la grippe, which seemed to settle in my stomach and kidneys. "Five bottles of Peruna made a new man of me. I wish that I had known of Peruna years ago, and then It would have saved me much suffering

"They do not wish any musician in their family. You must be a profes aor." "Never!" "You only choice Is between Greek and Latin." 'But I will be a musician," said Gounod. "You will? Give it up. I say: it is no profession at all. However, we wilJ just see what you can do. Here's, pen and paper. Compose for me a new air to Joseph's words. 'A peine an sortir de l'enfanee!' " It was the recreation hour. Before the bell sounded for the studies to begin again Gounod came back with his paper completely covered. "Already?" cried rierson. "Well, sing it then!" Gounod sang and accompanied himself end so deeply affected poor Papa Plerson that with tears he pressed bim in bis arms and exclaimed: "Oh. my dear boy! Henceforth tbey may say what they like, but a musician yon shall be and nothing else." From the German. LOVE'S LABOR LOST. Ho Intended to Bo Generous, but His Bride Thought Otherwise.

Murphy, who is appearing in the big musical comedy surprise, "Let George Do It." this year at the Gennett tonight: "We are living in a day of head liners and snapshots, taxi. cabs and music halls; in a day when the scramble fo rthe prizes of life has become a mad passion. It is a day of fever, fret and fume. When the competition for earthly joys is so keen and the margin or nrofit so fine that the one cry beating through the air is 'Hurry up!' No ono seems to have time for pause till worn out in the pursuit of gegaws and vanities, a rest cure becomes imperative. The clock is stopped and all action, men tal and physical, must be prescribed as prohibitive for an eighth part of a year. We are living in a day when the high ideals of old are fast yielding to the pressure of creature comforts, when principle is being exchanged for expediency; in a day when self-sacri ficing Catholicism is being bartered for self-centered materialism.

SAYS QUININE WILL NOT BREAK A COLD You will distinctly feel your cold

breaking and all the Grippe symptoms leaving after taking the very irst dose. It is a positive fact that Pape's Cold Compound, taken every two hours, until three, consecutive doses are taken, will end the Grippe and break up the most severe cold, either in the head, chest, back, stomach or limbs. It promptly relieves the most miserable headache, dullness, head and nose stuffed up, feverisbness, sneezing, sore throat, running of the nose, mucous catarrhal discharges, soreness, stiffness and rheumatic twinges. Pape's Cold Compound is the result of three years' research at a cost of more than fifty thousand dollars and contains no quinine, which we have conclusively demonstrated is not effective in the treatment of colds or grippe. Take this harmless compound as directed, with the knowledge that there is no other medicine, made anywhere else in the world, which will cure your cold or end grippe misery as promptly and without any other assistance or bad after-effects as a 25-cent package of Pape's Cold Compound, which any druggist in the world can supply. will linger long in the memory of the people. Lew Wells, monologist and saxaphonist has an act that is different. His pose is that of a cynical old chap whose comments on life and manners are as racy as they are brief and dry. Walter Law and his company in their sketch "At the Threshold" have an act that for a dramatic sketch can not be surpassed. For next week, Manager Murray has secured Billy Hawthorne and his merry minstrel maids. This is said to be one of the biggest novelties on the road and should draw capacity business.

THE FIRST AERONAUT.

Kingslsy's Queer Idea and an Embarrassing Coincidence. Charles Klngsley was at a dinner once with the aeronaut Cox well. It was shortly after Coxwell and a companion had made a flight in which they had risen so high that Coxwell's hands were frozen and he had time only to tear open the air Talve with his teeth. A. C. Benson tells the story in "The Leaves of the Tree" In the North American Review. After dinner Kingsley suddenly said: "I have often thought that the first man that ever went up in a balloon must have been a d-dentist. Some one laughed and said, "What an extraordinary idea!" "I don't know," said Klngsley. "A man who is always looking down people's throats, and pulling their teeth about, and breathing their breath, most be inspired with a tremendous desire to get away and above it all." Coxwell leaned forward and said very good humoredly, "Well, Mr. Kingsley, It is true that I am a dentist, but it was not that that xnadje me become an aeronaut." "My d-dear Mr. Coxwell," said Kiugsley, flushing red, "I am sure I beg your pardon. I had no idea it was so. You must have thought me singularly ill mannered to make a joke of it." Kingsley could not recover bis spirits for the rest of the evening. He hated giving pain to any human being more perhaps than anything in the world. Why Doan Swift Didn't Go to Ascot. Dean Swift was the earliest man of note to make mention of the historic Ascot race meeting. It is in one of I his "Letters to Stella" in August, 1711. that the great Jonathan says he "saw a place they have made for a famous horse race tomorrow, when the queen will come." But being "tired with riding a trotting, mettlesome horse a dozen miles, having not been on horseback this twelvemonth," Swift determined "not to go to the race unless I can get room in some coach." As he was hindered by a caller all the coaches were filled before he could reach one, and as a consequence the world lost the description of that earliest Ascot that only the author of "Gulliver's Travels" could have penned.

At the appearance of Sore Throat the first thought should be its quick cure. Don't regard it lightly don't think it may be gone tomorrow. An hour's delay may bring fatal results. What good doctor in his practice now advises delay or thinks lightly of any Sore Throat, especially in children? Modern medication wisely endeavors to quickly control and cure the simpler forms of disease it's so much easier and so much safer than waiting for the graver diseases to follow. It is right here and in this way that TONSILINE has its greatest value. Tonsiline will positively cure the Sore Throat ana thereby prevent tne aresa disease Diphtheria.
