Only immediate In creases in wages will prevent numer ous and widespread strikes in the bituminous coal mines of the conutry, according to the action of the special convention of the United Mine Work ers of North America here late Tues day, following the final disagreement and dissolution of the joint conference of the central competitive field. The adjournment was taken follow ing an all morning discussion and just after President Lewis of the United Mine Workers of ..orth America had declared: "When the miners go into tills con flict it will be a fight that will not end until we are the victors or are completely routed." "Of course," he added, "if we are losers In the fight we shall expect the operators to make the terms." The terms proposed by the miners for the continuation of work after the expiration of the present agreements at midnight Thursday will admit of no compromise so far as wages are con cerned. On most other qestions, how ever, there is room for argument, and the general trend of opinion among men and employers was that no lengthy suspension will result ex cept in a few fields. The most threatening aspect over shadows the Pennsylvania and Illi nois sections. In Pennsylvania there can be no new contract short of a set tlement of the controversv over the new explosive law of that state and in Illinois the old problem of pay ment for the services of shot firers looms up as a possible barrier to peaceful settlement. Both questions were brought upon the floor of the convention, but where as a positive declaration was adopted on tne lormer. the Illinois miners were not allowed to put the conven tion on record ds supporting or reject ing the justice of their grievances. Briefly, the miners' demands are that all operators agree to pay the increased wages of 5 cents a ton on pick-mined screened coal, with pro portionate advances for other methods The reading circle of the State Teachers' association, which recom mends books to the various school districts of the state, and selects books teachers must read or be un able to secure a renewal of their cer tificates, has entered into contract with book concerns from which pur chases are made to pay the expenses of the members of the circle when meeting, as well as the advertising of the books selected. The companies with which this contract has been made are Heath & Co., Rand McNally and the GInn com pany. Each company contracted to pay Its share of the cost of the ex penses of the members of the reading circle to the meetings. Every book company whose publications are chos en by the reading circle has to chip in so much to the members of the circle, the parties who select the books. The reading nrcle is composed of State Superintendent Bishop, cx ofllcio member; Superintendent Mc Michael of Holdrege, Superintendent Fred Hunter of Norfolk, president of the Principals and Superintendents' association; County Superintendent Miller or Cedar county and Edith Lathrop, county superintendent of Clay county. The board met and adopted twenty five books for public school libraries, and plans for the pupils' reading cir cle. Teachers' books were also adopt ed and a contract entered into with the publishers to furnish these at so much per book. From twenty-one publishers books were selected for the use of the schools, but the read ing circle has authority only to re commend these books and cannot force the school districts to buy them.

Resolved: That a copy of these re solutions be spread upon the records of the court and a copy be sent to the relatives of tne deceased as an expression of our sympathy for them in the loss they have sustained.

While his wife was sleeping he fired a bullet Into the side of her head just above the ear. The ball glanced ofT, inflict ing only a flesh wound. Mrs. Custer then heard another shot and the bul let whistling by her head, burying itself in the wall. A little later a third shot was fired. The woman was afraid to venture ont of her room, and not until four hours later, at G o'clock, was Custer found, a bullet hole in his head, lying in a pool of blood ac the rear stoop of his residence. Neigh bors made the discovery. Mrs. Custer will recover. The cause of her husband's action is attributed to despondency. I ly IEV. CHAS. D.W.

Judge Dungan Thursday imposed a sentence of five years at hard labor in the state peni tentiary upon Arthur Anderson, negro slayer of Arthur Newell, following a plea of guilty to the charge of man slaughter. The case was disposed of without trial by jury and was in line with an agreement between counsel for defense and the county attorney to save the county expense, much hav ing already accrued through the case. On the plea cf guilty to the charge of grand larceny. Judge Dunday sen tenced O. R. Johnson to one year in the state penitentiary. Johnson stole some clothing from a traveling sales man last December and traded them for an organ, which he shipped to his wife in the western part of the state for a Christmas present. For what shall It profit a man if h hull gain the whole world and lose his wn o:il? Or what shall a man Rive In exchange or his soul? Mark f: 3t37. Few words are more familiar in the msiness world than profit and loss. Men go into business for profit; it Is .he object of their thought, of their .oil. They deal in the gcod which they aelleve will produce profit, and if any :hing Is handled at a loss it is for tbo sake or maintaining a market or for some future advantage. Will it pay? is the question ever on the lips, or. What Is there In it for me? Now. one of the striking character istics of Jrsus Christ was that he .ooked back of the things that are seen, back of the material to the un seen nnd spiritual. He knew absolute ly the right value of things. Money had a value, pleasure had its place, food must be considered to Us de gree of necessity, but these ail were secondary to the soul. The person using these things was of infinite value. We deal too much with the superficial, we are taken up with the things that perish, we become In volved with the lesser, even worthless Ihirgs of life: Jesus Christ never. He was the light of the world and sorely did the work of his day and of 3ur day need the illumination which he brings to the relations of life. We need to see as he saw if we are to ba saved from fatal mistakes. So In this matter of profit and loss Christ realized perfectly the comparative value of the soul and the things to which men gave their thought and Iheir lives, and it was out of his In finite wisdom that he uttered th9 warning conveyed in the question: What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul?" Men were making the fatal exchange every day when the question was asked, and he who came to be their Saviour saw and felt as no one else of earth ever did the tragedies of such lives. His question implied that the soul of man has a greater value than the whole world of things. The soul Is the immortal part of c:an. We understand by it here the , .'spirit, which has a body. We are j children of God, with capacities for . knowing him. fcllowshipping with him, growing in grace and knowledge.
