For a couple of years now. Mr. Mitchell has been connected with the National Civic Federa tion. an organisation backed by Andrew Carnegie and other millionaires. His office has to do with the welfare of the workingman and results of his work have shown that no better choice could have been made. John Mitchell is a self made man. He knows what it is to toil in a coal mine. He has gone down in the pits not knowing whether he would come out alive. He has had some narrow es capes. and he has seen his companions and tr.enus die ai ineir »uik. nr uuiru *wt u.^ kind heartedness In the fall or 1S»S he was vice-president and orgmnUer of the United Mine Workers of America. There was a strike at the Virden Coal company's mine In Virden. 111. For days the striking miners camped around the stockade the company had erected for the protection of its property. Mr. Mitchell, ncompanled by several newspaper men. visited the camp cf grim toilers one night, and the sights he wdtnessed touched his heart. Then canm the day when the comi>any attempted to land a train-load of negroes from Alb hama to take the places of the white men Governor Tanner had refused ta order out the militia to protect negroes from other states. There was a riot Nineteen or twenty m*-n in the ranks of the strikers fell dead under tin shower of billets from rifles used by hired detectives from an agency in St. Louis. Negroes were killed, and one or two guards slain. The engineer of the train was shot through the arm. Then came John Mitchell again. He was what might be called the angel of mercy to the stricken families of the miners. He wasn't violent: he coun seled peace. There was an element in the ranks of the union men. who thought Mr Mitchell too peaceful, but in the long run his policy was found to be the w.nner. Xo man ever did as much for the miners as he. The other day he went out to St. lxtuis from Xew York and talked on the •abject closest to bis heart—that of placing safeguards around the working man. He said their were more persons kilted in the United States each year in the peaceful industrial pursuits than would be killed If this country and England were continually at war. mud three times more than in any other na tion. He urged the need of an automatic compensation for victims of indus trial adeems in lieu of the employers' liability protection. “We want to take this class of damage suits out of the courts altogether.” he said. "The fact that an employee ha- to sue his employer in case of in jury engenders ill-feeling between the employee and the employer, and makes the employe* lose the only man. perhaps, from whom he can get a job. We also want to aboi-sb the delay in compensation for acidents.” GORE SHOCKED SENATORS Thomas Pryor Gore, the blind senator from Oklahoma, caused his fellow members of the Uni ted States senate to sit up and take notice a day or so before the adjournment of congress. It takes a great deal to cause the staid old senate to show anything like a panic, but when Senator Gere intimated that an effort had been made to bribe him to the extent of $35,000 to $50,000 in connection with legislation affecting $3,000,000 in attorney's fees for services rendered to the Choctaw and Chickasaw nations, in land and township sites, the senator gave immediate at tention. Then «hen the senator involved two former members of the senate in the alleged plot the v» wus,ir^ ouaiuru us tat s iu catch every word.

Three year slater the senator suffered the oss of his ncht eye, when an arrow from a cross-bow. drawn by another playmate, struck him. Mr Gore did not kt the loss of his eyesight interfere with his schooling. He was graduated from a normal school and then went through Cumberland nuierdo :n Tennessee He was married to Miss Nina Kay, in 1900, and • e has t.-en a groat help to him in his reading.

HARMON FIRST IN CONTEST Jndscn Harmon, governor of Ohio, who has been renominated by the Democ-a»s of his state for a second term, is the first in the field for the presidential nomination in 1812. Of course a great deal depends upon whether he is elected this fall, but his friends are sanguine of suc cess. Should he be defeated in his race tor gov ernor it naturally would put him out of the con test fer the presidency. Governor Harmon was born In Hamilton coun ty. Ohio, in IStt His father was a clergyman. He was graduated from Denison university in 180ft. ard from the Cincinnati Law school In 180. The first public office he held was that of common pleas judge from 1876 to 1878. Then he became judge of the superior court of CincinnatL holding this office from 1878 to 18S7. when he re •toed to resume the practise of law. On June 8. 1893. President Cleveland called Judge Harmon to his cabinet as attorney general. He held this Impor tant position two years and again went back to the practise of his profession. He was president of the Ohio Bar association and member of the faculty o! '-be iaw department of the 1'niverslty of Cincinnati. In January. 191*. he took the oath of office as governor of the Buckeye to iffTf two yfirs.

Moody of the United States supdeme court must resign. Under the law a member of the court must serve ten years before he can retire on pay. To aid Justice Moody. Sen •tor I>odge introduced In the senate a bill giving him his pay in future because It was Illness and not a desire to enter other business that caused his inability to give his attention to court duties. Justice Moody was attorney general when President Roosevelt appointed him to the bench in 1MC.

Chickens and Animals Terrorized by the Vicious Fowl. Seattle. Wash.—Eagles, busy gather ing food for their young ones and fly- • ing down from their nests in the crags of the Cascade and Olympic Mountains, are unusually daring. In stances are beir.g reported where thev have attacked men. women and chil dren. They are also charged with car rying off lambs, pigs, dogs, cats an.! farmyard poultry.

A stage coach driver near Hartford. ' Wash., attacked while sitting on his wagon and face badly torn by the big bird's talons. Farmers near Brinnon declare they are losing much young stock by thiev ing eagles. More eagles are nesting in the foothills of the Olympics than ever before. The increase J food supplies, consisting of the small farm animals is given as the cause of so many eagles. A report from Mason county states that bald eagles are swooping down on farmyards and carrying off poul try. principally ducks and geese. A big rooster on a Mason county farm fought a fierce battle with a small eagle of some unknown species and won out. putting the marauder to flight. News comes from Blaine that farm ers observed two eagles descend from high in the air and attack and carry for over a mile two day-old lambs. The sheep In the pen were so badly fright ened by the flapping of wings and bleating of the dying lambs as to break from the inclosure and run pell-! mell into a brook, 15 drowning A news story under a Enumclaw date, telling about a pair of eagles that had a nest on a high, rocky ledge near there, says. “A newly hatched eaglet fell from the nest 300 feet into the valley. Several children coming from a Sunday-school picnic passed near by and were set upon and badly frightened by the old birds. So incensed were the eagles that they followed the scared boys and girls to their homes and were only routed by the firing of a shotgun toward them as they circled over the houses. Items were printed from various towns on the Pacific slope of the Cas cade Mountains, noting the presence of many eagles and the inroads they oc casionally made Into the big pens of ranchers and yards of poultrymen.

He had planned to exhibit his brlndle bull at the dog show and make a de termined fight for first prite for fero ciousness. Now he has changed his mind. He has decided that what he thought was a brindle bulldog really is. despite its frightening appearance, an albino-liv ered cross between a lamb and a rab bit. with a streak of turtle dove thrown in. The feeling here is that if the brlndle hybrid does not guard the underworld any better than it guarded the Sturges home, in a little while the police will have all its den izens behind the bars, and the thief w ho stole the brindle will be sorry he did it. When Sturges purchased the brin dle he took it home and boasted to his neighbors that any burglar who intruded upon his premises would be chewed to bits. He went to bed feel ing that everything was safe, and say ing to himself what a blessing it was to have a faithful, four-legged protec tor roaming the grounds outside The burglar seemingly greeted him like a long lost brother, and the two went away together as nicely as could be." with the tail of the brindic wav ing a by-by toward the Sturges home. The thief evidently decided enough glory had come to him for one night in stealing a brindle bulldog because he made no effort to break into the house.

Several members of the University dub beard Mrs. Adams' screams and hurried to her rescue. Rjr the tins* she reached a physician's office her arm had swollen to twice Its normal sice, and she was almost overcome by the pain. The wound was cauterised, but th* possibility of more serious results are feared. It is betleyed that the cat was at* tacked by some other animal suffer ing from rabies. The Humane soci ety was htdfled. and Richard Sulli van warn tent to the houae. The cat eluded him and hid tn tho basement. As he wwa unarmed he barricaded the place to prevent the animal's escape and promised to re turn with a net and gun to capture and kill it. Many in Federal Employ.
