The membership of the arbitration commission named by the President to settle the coal strike attains the high average of personal character and of eminence in the world of affairs prophesied of it. And chief in the first particular and not least in the latter is the mem- ber added by the President of his own volition, Bishop John L. Spalding, of Peoria. A great churchman, a pro- found student of industrial problems, the Bishop's pres- ance will strengthen an otherwise strong commission of which he would be the ideal presiding officer. The vexed question of the miners’ direct personal representatives in the Board seems to have been happily solved by the choice of Bishop Spalding and of FE. E. Clark, Grand Chief of the Order of Railroad Conductors. Mr. Clark {s the “sociologist” provided for in the opera- tors’ plan of a commission. conspicuously able delegates in a tribunal of six. Their interests are safe in these competent hands. The arbitration and to pass on the commission have much to lose by a rejection of the conciliatory terms proposed or a refusal to indorse the President's appointees. To accept them frankly and to put a long-delayed! end to this most unfortunate of industrial quarrels will ie ‘ their labors with honor to themselves and with the de- served gratitude of the public. | a | © Wedding Ring.—A Brooklyn man has introduced a new feature in weddings by dispensing with the ring and substituting a lily as the bride's symbol and a rej, red rose as his own, This Is very sweet, but most brides will prefer the ring. | MR.

When the safes were opened yester-| day “wads of greenbacks amounting to more than) $100,000 were discovered; stocks, bonds and securitles worth twice as much more; accounts showing the enor- 1 mous profits of the gamblers; checkbooks with tell-tale} stubs and cancelled checks with indorsements; confiden- tial notes; pupers containing the names of men whom the District-Attorney has had on his slate for a logg time.” A rare find, more important in the “papers” and in| the cancelled check stubs than in the ready cash vast as} the sum is, The source of the gamblers’ wealth was! known; the stubs will show where much of it went.

Some years ago two Spanish physicians, I. Pujador y Faura and J. Viura y Carreras, of Barcelona, published accounts of grave cases of scarlet fever which they had treated by sub- cutaneous Injections of the essence of turpentine, says Public! In view of this example M. A. Tobeltz, of the fac- ult¥ of medicine of Gratz, has since 1899 employed the same treatment’ with the scarlet fever patients in the hospital of M. F. Kraus, professor of clinical medicine In the same faculty. As injections of essence of turpentine ace very p: ful and always produce abscesses, M. Tobeltz substituted’ in- ternal usage of ‘this substance, a daily dose of fifteen to twenty -drops taken one or two times a day being given, According to this physician in more than one hundred cases| of scarlet fever this treatment, but Ittle used up to the pres- ent, has been particularly efficacious, especially in reference Administered in time the essence of turpentine $s even capable of preventing the appearance of 002606 ‘The Thermometer is,no longer @ pers onage of high degree, Here's hoping all coal difficulties mi join the has-been class in time to m the Thanksgiving Proclamation 4 trifle more Uke the real thing!
