He was educated in Madrid, where he was graduated with the rank of lieutenant.

As a result of the new scale agreement it is probable that President T. J. Shaffer of the Amalgamated association, whose home is in Pittsburg, will resign. He threatened to do so during one of the conferences when one of the owners a** cused him of being an obstacle in the way of Ata agreement, but was persuaded to at least postpone such action. Notwithstanding President Shaffer's attitude the workers generally are pleased with the new scale as l»eing quite as favorable as was expected.

Soppltt made a dramatic reference to this memorable affair in his speech, but dii not bring out the fact that it grew out of just such demonstrations which it is feared may be made now—the marching of la«ge bodies of riotous men to forcibly prevent people who want to work from doing so.

BROAD AND I1IN STS., PITTSTON George Wortz of rittsburg, in speaking of recent tremendous increase in in dustriai securities, told the following story: "One of the prominent operators who engineered one of the big steel deals last year one day received a letter from a professional man in a western city. The letter said that this man had as an in vestment bought 400 shares of this particular stock at 40; that the stock was at 20 now and the consequent loss of $8,000 had pretty nearly ruined him; that he had bought the stoek because of the financier's connection with it, and then the letter wound up with an appeal to the steel magnate to help him out. The Wall street man Investigated the story, ascertained, as he thought, that it wai true and wrote the other that if he would send the 400 . shares to his broker he would take it up at 40, the price orig inally paid for it. This was done, and later the operator discovered that the stork had been purchased the day it was delivered to him and that the story of the origiual purchase was a myth.

Twelve Killed la a Railway Wreck. On Deo. 24, 1895, he encountered at Peralejo the army of General Gomez, which was without any military organization apd which was poorly and sparsely armed. In the buttle the army under Campos was completely routed and fled incontinently to Havana. Campos edtofessed with tears in his eyes that he was beaten, randemonium succeeded. Of course Spanish honor could not brook this sort of thing. The name "pacificator," which had been bestowed on him by the colonists as a mark of esteem, was employed at home as a title of derision. His vacillating and tender policy, it was charged, had swelled the rebel ranks. As the world knows, he was recalled in disgrace-and for his successor was chosen a man against whom no charge of tenderness could be brought. General Weyler, who had put down an insurrection in the Philippines in 1889, was the person selected. In addition to the orators at these general meetings many of the Catholic priestn in their sermons spoke words of advice and warning to their parishioners. Father Phillips'here in Ilazleton expressed strongly his sympathy with the strike, which it* his latest position on the subject, and asked blessings upon any one and every orte who assisted the strikers in attaining their object in an orderly and Iawabiding manner. He urged the miners to be temperate and well behaved and not gather, in groups on the streets. Father Mack, the rector of the church at Drifton, with many workers from the Coxe Bros, and Markle company mines in his congregation, made a strong point on the absolute right which every man has to work if he chooses to do so and pointing out that no man bad any right, divine or eivil, to interfere with the exercise of this privilege by his neighbor. He furthermore entreated the miners-to refrain from drink, as the situation wa& one which made it imperative that their brains be clear. n' "KAWANNA, •♦THE" AUNDRY.

He first eame into prominence as a revolutionary when as a young man he joined the revolution which substituted for the autocracy of the tycoons the supreme rule of the mikado.

On his re- j turn to Japan in 1871 he was made min-1 jgter for war, and it is clear enough that the great advance made by Japan in military science has lieen due almost entirely to Marshal Yamagata.

After several elders of the church who were sent persistently to Mansfield had been mobbed the authorities, to protect them, took them in custody and sent them out of the city again on the next train. This plan of action was followed several suci-essive Sundays, and the people were satisfied.

He was educated in Madrid, where he was graduated with the rank of lieutenant.

As a result of the new scale agreement it is probable that President T. J. Shaffer of the Amalgamated association, whose home is in Pittsburg, will resign. He threatened to do so during one of the conferences when one of the owners a** cused him of being an obstacle in the way of Ata agreement, but was persuaded to at least postpone such action.

Whether he has ever been in prison, almshouse or lived on charity probe deeply into his most intimately private affairs. For, though he might never have have been in prison, the truth telling traveler might feel that he should say if he has not that he ought to have been, while the answer "Not yet" to the question whether he is a polygamist won't pass. • Finally the condition of his health must be stated—his mental as wfll as physiea' —and if he tells the truth when he arrives at this stage of the self examination he will be very apt. to say, "Border ing on insanity."

The meeting at Lattimer was held on the spot where the sheriff's deputies fired upon the riotous miners in 1887, killing 22 and wonnding 40 or 50 more. Soppltt, one of the labor agitators from the west, addressed this meeting, speaking from the steps of the schoolhouse, the door of which was riddled with bullets at the time of the fatal collision. Soppltt made a dramatic reference to this memorable affair in his speech, but dii not bring out the fact that it grew out of just such demonstrations which it is feared may be made now—the marching of la«ge bodies of riotous men to forcibly prevent people who want to work from doing so.

BROAD AND I1IN STS., PITTSTON George Wortz of rittsburg, in speaking of recent tremendous increase in in dustriai securities, told the following story: "One of the prominent operators who engineered one of the big steel deals last year one day received a letter from a professional man in a western city. The letter said that this man had as an in vestment bought 400 shares of this particular stock at 40; that the stock was at 20 now and the consequent loss of $8,000 had pretty nearly ruined him; that he had bought the stoek because of the financier's connection with it, and then the letter wound up with an appeal to the steel magnate to help him out. The Wall street man Investigated the story, ascertained, as he thought, that it wai true and wrote the other that if he would send the 400 . shares to his broker he would take it up at 40, the price orig inally paid for it. This was done, and later the operator discovered that the stork had been purchased the day it was delivered to him and that the story of the origiual purchase was a myth.

Twelve Killed la a Railway Wreck. On Deo. 24, 1895, he encountered at Peralejo the army of General Gomez, which was without any military organization apd which was poorly and sparsely armed. In the buttle the army under Campos was completely routed and fled incontinently to Havana. Campos edtofessed with tears in his eyes that he was beaten, randemonium succeeded. Of course Spanish honor could not brook this sort of thing. The name "pacificator," which had been bestowed on him by the colonists as a mark of esteem, was employed at home as a title of derision. His vacillating and tender policy, it was charged, had swelled the rebel ranks. As the world knows, he was recalled in disgrace-and for his successor was chosen a man against whom no charge of tenderness could be brought. General Weyler, who had put down an insurrection in the Philippines in 1889, was the person selected. In addition to the orators at these general meetings many of the Catholic priestn in their sermons spoke words of advice and warning to their parishioners. Father Phillips'here in Ilazleton expressed strongly his sympathy with the strike, which it* his latest position on the subject, and asked blessings upon any one and every orte who assisted the strikers in attaining their object in an orderly and Iawabiding manner. He urged the miners to be temperate and well behaved and not gather, in groups on the streets. Father Mack, the rector of the church at Drifton, with many workers from the Coxe Bros, and Markle company mines in his congregation, made a strong point on the absolute right which every man has to work if he chooses to do so and pointing out that no man bad any right, divine or eivil, to interfere with the exercise of this privilege by his neighbor. He furthermore entreated the miners-to refrain from drink, as the situation wa& one which made it imperative that their brains be clear. n' "KAWANNA, •♦THE" AUNDRY.

Mr. Keene did not care to say much of anything concerning his views on the financial and industrial situation of the country until he had consulted with his friends. He has always been a supporter of Bryan. He is Bryan's personal friend. In 1890 he backed his opinions on Bryan's election to the tune of $400,000.

He first eame into prominence as a revolutionary when as a young man he joined the revolution which substituted for the autocracy of the tycoons the supreme rule of the mikado.
