mm 010 PER CENT OFFER
Hurt Day*’ Session Devoted to
Organization and Speeches
From Prominent Delegates.
' —-
ted and fifty-seven min¬
who is their power to end or
continue the anthracite coal miuers’
atrike, which has been in progress tor
more than three weeks, met in uonven-
tion nt Scranton, Fa., Friday, for tho
purpose of considering the 10 pur cent
net advance in wage* offered by tin*
operators, and adjourned until Satur¬ thinr
day without taking any action on
employers' piopoaitiou. do
Both of Friday's sessions wore
voted to organizing the convention
and to apeeches by many of tho delo-
tt the mine owners’ concession,
not expected that anything
would be douo outside of a general
exchange of views. The convention,
after it was permanently organized,
went into secret session, hut it was
learned from authoritative sources
that nothing of a defiuito nature wan
suggested, which would load to a solu¬
tion of what is to tbe miners a kindly
problem.
■president Mitohcll called tho con¬
vention to order at 10:25 o’clock, ami
addressed tho delegates, saying-,
“For tho first time in many years
tho operators have recognized your
demand* for better conditions of em¬
ployment and have offered an advance
of 10 per cent in your wages. I am
31 that this advance is not
satisfactory to you. You have felt,
and with jnstioe, that » dofluite period
of time should bo named during which
this advance should remain in force.
“Yoar experience where wages nre
based on a sliding scale has been so
unsatisfactory to yon that you believe
that tbe alidiug scale method of deter¬
mining wages should bo obeyed bv tho
t companies, and wagea—ttr'fmnl
twice a month, yoo reserving (he right,
of spending your earnings it is wherever hotter at
•yell choose. Whether
this time to insist upon a compliance
with all your demands is a question
-f bioh yon, who a»e most interested,
are called njson to decide.
“Personally I have hoped that wo
should he able at some time to cstnh
lish tho same method of adjusting
wage differences as now exist in the
bituminous coal regions, where em¬
ployer* and miners’ delegatos meet in
joint interstate debate, and like pru¬
dent, sensible business men, mutually
agree upon a scale of wages which re¬
mains in force for one year."
Chairman Mitchell'* first aot was to
read a telegram from Samuel Goui-
pers, president of tho American Fed¬
eration of Labor, as follows:
“Tho cause of ilie miner* is the
cause of humanity. Whatever the de
cision reached regarding tho operators’
offer tho future must be brighter, hot¬
ter and more children, iust for tho luftiers, their
wives and and humanity will
be the gainer. Kindly convey to the
assembled delegates tiio slocereet sym¬
pathy and co-operation of every union
member aud officer of the American
Federation of Labor. Wo all pray
and w%rk for your success,"
Tho convention wout into secret
session, aud at its close adjourned to
9 o’clock Haturday rnorniug The
press committee, of which Mr. Mitch¬
ell is ohairmsu, mndo public the fol¬
lowing report;
“At 8 o'clock tho convention wont
into exeeutine session and tho pass
word of tho organisation was taken up.
Tbcqucntiou was asked if all tho oper¬
ators had posted no!ices advancing
wages 10 per cent, and it was asccr-
tained that a large number of tho in
dividual operators had uotyot done so.
’the opposition to tho proposition of
the operators appeared to lie unani¬

PHIL BYRD HONORED.
Appointed Adjutant General of
Georgia By Governor Candler.
Will Hold Office do Days.
Friday Governor Candler, of Geor¬
gia, issued to Phil. G. Byrd a commis¬
sion ks adjutant-general of tho state
fur a term of throe year*.
Although the commission reads lor
thro* years, this being necessary to
conform to the state law, it is known
that. General Byrd will not hold the
office longer then sixty days. This is
due to tho fact that he has certain
Urge interests in Central America,
which will require bis presence in that
country on or before January 1st, next.
This was fully understood by Gov¬
ernor Candler when the appointment
was made, and, as a matter of fact,
although the appointment Is in effect
* temimrsry one, General Byrd has re¬
ceived ail that ho asked for.
The concensus of political opinion
seems to bo that the governor's ap¬
pointment was an eminently proper
odo, and he is being congratulated up¬ In
on this solution of the problem.
view of the fact that General Byrd
had served so faithfully as acting ad¬
jutant general, bis promotion to the
position hold by General Kell was all
along considered a foregone conclu¬
sion; but hardly anyone knew of his
intention to give uji the place after so
short a time.
Tho latt- r fact practically leaves the
race still open.

married. A week before the time set
for the wedding, when the bride was
"tilt to her < Itt work, there cante
one day about a half hour before
luncheon, U smart pull at the bell, fol -
lowed by the entrance of a dozen of
her classmates, who announced that
they had come for luncheon. The nat¬
ural consternation of the hostess at
this unexpected addition to her family
wore assuaged when each girl pro¬
duced not only the component part of
a most delicious meal, hut dainty in¬
dividual cups aud saucers as well
When the merry feast was ended the
dozen cups and saucers were left be¬
hind as souvenirs of the occasion. Nor
was this all Carefully wrapped In
tissue palter and tied with baby
bon In the Berkeley colors, blue and
gold, were all sorts of small kitchen
conveniences—egg beaters, potato
rlcers, larding needles, a set of silver
skewers, and the like. These were
stealthily tucked into the interstices
of the wedding chest, which was being
packed, as other practical reminders of
