Thai Silver ('llurn.

That silver churn story concerning the
youngest daughter of the Prince of
Wales, Princess Maud. whom Lord Rose-
bsry is to marry, is truly touching if it
only touches the right spot. it seems
that the Princess of Wales has at one of
her country places a dairy fitted up,
where she and her daughters play at
butter making. The fact that Alexan-
dra comes from Dennmrk. the leading

product fell below profitable rates. iihas
been the custom of employers to' recoup
themselves by cutting down the wages
of those who make the product.

Against this custom. among other
things, the British coal miners struck
Their contention was that {reducers
should always receive living wages for
their work. whatever the price of the
product should be. If such price was
not profitable, then manufacturers should
combine to keep it up or to lessen operat-
ing expenses in other ways than by cut-
ting workmen‘e wages. The coal miners
of England claim that the living wage
doctrine was established by the outcome
of the great strike.

The American strikp was against a pro-
posed reductiou of wages in the soft coal
mining districts and for a uniform rate
of wages throughout these districts. It
was ordered at the national convention
of the United Mine Workers April 10.
It began at noon Saturday. April 21.
and a few days afterward not less than
140,000 miners of bituminous coal were
out. The intention from the beginning
was to make this the greatest single
strike that was ever on in America. It
can hardly assume the dimensions the
British strike did for American coal

Mrs’. Humphry Word’- Now Book.

“Robert Elsinore." and "David Grieve”
left some doubts in the minds of literary
critics as to Mrs. Humphry Ward's ar-
tistic ability. Her new book. “Marcel-
la," seems to havepettied this point in
her favor. The critics agree that it is
the greatest book she has written, and
that it places bur beyond doubt at the
head of we on fiction writers in the
English language. A place equal to that
held by George Eliot will be accorded
her now, but not the same class.

George Eliot and Mrs. Humphry Ward
are not at ‘all alike. Both are actuated
by a deep moral purpose, but there the
resemblance ends. ”In 'Mnrcella’ Mrs.
Ward has found herself," writes The
Outlook reviewer. '.,Marcella was a tre-
mendously in earnest young English
girl who wanted to reform the world.
She thought if she could get lawe made
to destroy rumshops and other evil insti-
lotions she would destroy, theevil.

 

The bituminous coal regions of this
country are found chiefly in Pennsylva-
nia, Ohio, Indiana. Illinois, Missouri,
Kansas. Alabama, Tennessee. Kentucky,
Virginia. West Virginia and Maryland.
The far western districts are in Washing.
ton, Wyoming, Colorado and lndinn
Territory. The strike begun in Pennsyb
vania and Ohio itllll spread westward.

Workers are at Columbus. 0., wherb the
president, John McBride. lives. Mr. Mc-
Bride was formerly a member of the
Ohio legislature. _

The organizers of the strike (‘ ulcnlnted
that 3, 000 mines in various parts of the
United States would shut down. Ohio
alone contains 800 of these mines. The
price paid for mining coal was. in Jaun-
ary. 45 cents per ton. The operators cut
it down to 40 cents. then again. early in
April, to 35 cents. This was the llllflli¥<

The prospect of most serious trouble
would naturally be in the south in case
a strike became general there.

(Chicago Herald.) T

Rev. Dr. H. A. Delano, of the Evans-'
ton First Baptist church, gave his res.
sons last Sunday for the dwindling at-
tendance st churches. lie selected his
own pulpit,instend of the columns of
The Herald (which by the way. he styled
”Chicago' I forenfist- journal. ") for the ut-
terance of his views on the subject, and
hence be last [he immense audience
which otherwise'would have received
the benefit of his suggestions. A part of
the sermon, however. was published in
The Herald of Monday and so attained
great publicity. -

lIr. Delano appears to think that the
number of uonchurch-g cars has been In-
creased by the gloomy atmosphere of the
churches, by dullness and intellectual
poverty in the preachers and because the
world is weary of the old trite and stupid
curds. He gives these reasons in an
eloquent and forcible style. but they do
not carry conviction. The (.Iatholic
churches. with the oldest creed and the
most solemn atmosphere of devotion. are
always full sudoverilowlng.

But, while Dr. Delsuo’e reasons are
unsatisfactory. his example is excellent.
Other preachers should follow it. they
should investigate for themselves the
causes why forms of worship are unst-

motive to intelligent minds and why s
sense of duty in regard to church attend-
anee has disappeared so genmlly from
among the people.
