A futile attempt " made in the House of Commons this after noon to secure a day for a debate on the tate of Ireland. The liberal leader, 8ir Henry Campbell- Dannerman, supported the request, which Premier Balfour said would be granted on the understanding that the motion took the form of a vote of censure on the gov ernment and was supported by the opposi tion as a whole. A lively discussion ensued In which alle gations of discourtesy were made and the prevailing Ill-feeling was Increased. William O'Brien afterward gave notice of resolution declaring the operation of the crimes act In Ireland was not Justified, was unfair in Its application, opposed to civil ised usage in its administration and cal culated to undermine respect for the law, and estrange tho people of Ireland. The nationalists refrained from voting on any of the -amendments to the education bill. WILKE8BARRE. Pa., Oct. 22. Thousands of men began work today, repairing the mines and placing the collieries in condl tlon for the general resumption of coal mining, which will take place throughout the anthracite region tomorrow. Those men who are directly engaged In cutting and handling coal will not under the de cUion of the convention return to the mines until tomorrow, While there were thousands of men who were abla to again begla earning their dally bread today, there were hundreds who were disappointed when they applied to the eu pertntendenta of the collieries where they were formerly employed. They were prin cipally steam men, engineers, firemen and pump runners who struck on June 2 for an eight-hour day and also to help the miners win their battle. These men wsnted their old places back. but In many Instance the company officials refused to discharge those who stood by them during the strike. There were many In the Wyoming valley, however, who were fortunate enough to find employment. The company officials maintain they will not discriminate against union or nonunion men and that work will be given all when there are vacancies. During the strike the companlea were compelled to employ many Incompetent men to help keep the mines free from water or from "squeezing," as a result of the lack of proper timbering. The strikers feel that the majority of these workmen will gradu ally be dismissed and the more competent men engaged. Maro Mem Thaa Reqalred ' A mine worker who came Into t he union headquarters from South Wilkesbarre to day said: The superintendents' ar turning down a good many men nn the ground that ney are not needed.

The worst drouth ln the history of northern New Mex ico prevailed' during the six months ending last July, says the annual report ot the agent at the Jlcarilla Apache Indian agency, New Mexico. Tbe crops for 1902 are a total failure, The Indians dug under the rocks for enough water to quench their thirst and drove their stock for daya before finding water for them. Many horses, cattle, sheep aad goata, according to the agent, died of hun ger and (hirst "The Indians," ha says "have been drinking water that would kill an ordinary man. In spite ot their self. help there is not enough Income to keep the Indians from want. The remedy advocated by the report is tha sale of their timber, which. It is stated. would soon enable them to support them selves if the proceeds were applied to tbe purchase ot sheep and cattle. If a remedy is not applied the report suggests it is likely that the Jlcarilla Apachea always will be a burden to the government WESTERN MATTERS AT CAPITAL Natloaal Baak Aatherlscd to Trail- aet Baalaess at Kew Tiwa of Aaoka.

Comparison of Schools. Universities and colleges furnished a theme for Scot Butler, president ot Butler college. Indianapolis. He spoke ot tho , . school as the type ot the university, and of the denominational achool aa the college. Tbe state school bas unlimited funds for the support of its teachers and to provide equipment. Very often the small college has a small staff of teachers and a tery meager equipment. It is this that makea It so difficult tor the college to compete with tbe great atate achool. president Butler gave it as bis opinion that there Is about as much religion ln tha university aa ln the college, which la aup- posed to belong to the church. Tharo has been a great change for the better ln thia respsct ln the last thirty years. Ia the state schools there are numerous voluntary agencies and these are active and efficient. The speaker gave much consideration to the question If the schools of our time aro doing the work needed. Many or them make it their businesa to Impart Informa tion. Othera thick it Is the first duty of a school to prepare Its pupils for the buslneaa ot life. With them utility is tha main thing. President Butler thinks that Chris tian culture Is tbe thing to ba eought. Tha school that does not turn a out me a and women with lofty Ideals and aspirations la not doing that which the age needs and demands. Another speaker of the afternoon was Rev. T. N.
