MINERS IN WAR TO FINISH
|Struggle With Coal Operators of Ala
bama and West Virginia Is to
Be Fought Out.
The United Mine Workers of Ameri
ca propose to carry on their struggle
with the coal operators of Alabama
and of Mingo county, West Virginia,
to a finish. This was announced when
a declaration unanimously adopted by
the international executive board was
made public.
The board said 42,000 men, wonsen,
and children are involved in the stfike
and added: “Every conceivable meth
od has been used against them—evic
tion from their homes, foreclosure up
on - their household and personal ef
fects, false arrests and imprisonment,
prohibition of the right of assemblage,
denial of their statutory and consti
tutional rights, unwarranted use of
state troops in the coal fields, denun
ciation by an unfavorable press, and a
most malicious public campaign of mis
representation.”
As to Mingo county, the statement
charged there have been “innumerable
outrages inflicted by the private army
of hired gunmen employed by the coal
operators of that region.”
The statement assails the governor
for calling for federal troops, and de
clares were he true to his oath of of
fice he would at once compel the coal
companies to disarm the hundreds of
Baldwin-Feltz gunmen employed by
them.”
After the publication of a statement
by the United Mine Workers’ head
quarters that they were ready to meet
the operators in an attempt to reach
settlement, officials of the Williamson
Coal Operators’ association declined
to make a statement. A second state
ment was issued by the mine workers
refterating their desire to confer.

“After I had taken Cardui a few

take it in time.
“I have a number of friends who
have used Cardui, and they recommend

CHESS COMES EASY TO HIM
Youthful Prodigy Declares There Is
Nothing Wonderful About His
Mastership of Game,
“‘Chess 1s the easiest game in the
world to me. During the long dull
days of the war my father used to
play all the time with his friends. At
first I did not understand what the
chessmen were for, and wondered
why father would sit for hours and
gaze at the board with its funny-look
ing pieces. One day when I did not
want to go out and play I watched
Ifim play his game. I became inter
ested. I bothered my father so with
questions that he chased me out of the
game as soon as he was through
with his friend. I waited eagerly for
him to get through. He played a
practice game with me, and I under
stood every move after that. The
next game we played, I beat my father,
who is a very good chess player.
There is nothing wonderful about my
way of playing the game. My secre
tary, Mr. Azenberg, says that it
comes from reincarnation. A baby
is born with good brains, and they ex
plain it that way. They say that his
ancestors or some spirits have given‘
this power to him because so much[
ability in one person must have taken
a long time to develop. When I play
chess I can plan my moves six or sev
en moves ahead, and most players
can only go three moves ahead of the
game. I ean’t help it at all. I was
born that way. I like to play with
poor players. At West Point, where
I beat 19 games and drew one, there
were only nine good players; the oth
ers had no business trying to play
me at all.
I have played lots of fine players in
chess. During the war I beat the
German governor at Warsaw, and he
was an old man and a fine player,
Then I drew a game with Rubenstein,
the Russian champion, and also drew
with Griffin in a blindfolded game in
England. I have not played Lasker
yet, but one of the 21 I beat in Paris
says he drew a game with Lasker, and
another said he beat Capablanca. In
America, my hardest game so far has
been with Colonel Fiebeger, sixty-two
years old, at West Point.—Samuel |

Literary Digest in a recent issue. The}
Osaka Mainichi, which sees peril mi
the nation in the prevalence of self
slaughter, acknowledges the excel
lences of the Christian view that sui
cide, instead of being merely an apol
ogy for failure, is a crime. Many sui
cides in Japan are due to the fact that
the Japanese have “less aftachment
to life than foreigners,” and also to
the traditions of feudal times when
they belittled life.
The Osaka Mainichi says further:
“Death—much more suicide—means
evasion of responsiblity . . . and
the notion that those who commit sui
cide have the keenest sense of respon
sibility is wrong. Suicide is the em
bodiment of egoism and irresponsibili
ty. One of the strong points of the
Christian people is their conviction
that to kill one’s self is as criminal
as to kill others.”

“I am pleased to state that I used V-C goods during the past spring with
very satisfactory results and am satisfied that it paid me handsomely. My cotton
was planted early, thoroughly cultivated and well fertilized:; notwithstanding the
801 l Weevil and unfavorable weather conditions, my crops netted me a few thou
