SIC MUROM STRIKE
DISPUTE OVER WAGE INCREASE
AND EMPLOYES PROMOTION
PRACTICALLY ALL WESTERN LINES AFFECTED
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen Have Voted to
Strike—25,000 Men Will
Walk Out
Chicago.—At midnight Monday
night W. S. Carter, president cf the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen, said hat a strike of
25,000 firemen on practically all if the
western railroads had been called.
Mr. Carter stated the decision to
strike has been reached at a meeting
of forty-three members of the western
federated board of the brotherhood,
each member representing a western
road.
The exact hour at which the men
are to walk out, he said, would be de-
cided Tuesday and every member ,of
the union between Chicago and the
Pacific coast woud then be informed
by telegraph when to quit work.
"The strike has been called—that
much is certain," said Mr. Carter. "It
means that not only 25,000 firemen,
members of our union, will go out,
bu't perhaps that many more employes
will be thrown out in consequence.
"We gave our ultimatum to the rail-
roads that the men had voted to
strike and we were prepared to call
one unless we were granted an arbi-
tration of all questions in dispute. The
railroads refused to arbitrate any-
thing but the wage question."
The controversy which has been
under discussion for six weeks, in-
volves 47 railroads operating west,
northwest and southwest of Chicago,
and embraces about 150,000 miles of
railroads.
It has previously been stated by
both sides that if a strike were called
it would tie up practically every
freight and passenger train between
Chicago and the Pacific coast.
Points dn dispute are:
Increase in wages demanded, which
the union officials say would amount
to about 12 1-2 per cent. The right of
the union in question of representa-
tion when a fireman has been promot-
ed to an engineman or to another ca-
pacity over which another union
claims jurisdiction.
Questions of seniority, or the pro-
motion of new men over old time em-
ployes.
The railroad managers' committee,
composed of ten of the general man-
agers of western railroads and head-
ed by W. C. Nixon, general manager,
of the St. Louis & San Francisco
road, already had agreed to submit
the wage question to arbitration un-
der the Erdman act, but had declined
to arbitrate the other two points on
the ground that they were matters of
official authority and discipline and
could not be arbitrated.
To this attitude the union officials
on Sunday sent what they called an
"ultimatum," declaring that if all
three points were not submitted to
settlement by arbitration, a strike
would be inevitable.
The railroads today informed Mr.
Carter that notwithstanding the strike
possibility, they were determined to
"stand pat" on refusing to arbitrate
anything but the wage question. They
announced that if all the wage de-
mand was granted other railroad un-
ions woUld soon after ask similar in-
creases and this would virtually bank-
rupt the roads.
Oklahoma City's new $20,000 Jail
wtll be completed by May 1 and the
•'regulars," who malo a weekly ap-
pearance in police court or oftener,
if they can obtain the funds to pay
their way out, will be treated to clean
cells, after their months and months
of inconvenience at close quarters.
Hogg to Reach $12 by April
Chicago.—With the prospects for a
short crop of corn an increased de-
mand for meats and a decreased supply
to feed a larger population, commis-
sion men predict that the price of
hogs will go above $12 a hundred be-
fore April 1. The top price was
reached Saturday when pork on the
hoof sold for $11 at the Union stock
yards.
Not only will pork prices rise, the
commission men declare, but all other
meats and provisions as well and they
add that before very long pork tender-
j loins will cost more here than sixty
cents.
These predictions are based on the
scarcity of hogs. Up to the present
time shipments for the year have been
500,000 head shorter than they were
during the same period last year.
Receipts for Saturday, even under a
forced supply, were 2,000 less than
normal. Shipments are said to be 30
days in advance and drawing on the
future has Intensified the situation.
Finding that box cars—none too
plentiful at that—had outlived their
uoefulnoas while masquerading as de-
pots at Milburton, the Miller Lumber
company bas con-plained to the cor-
poration commission In an effort to
force th-? Frisco to put up adequate
bindings there.
Right salaried state enforcement
officers and abont fifteen commis-
sion paid men have been la.d off the
state disr«*nsary board because of
lack of fundi.
Entire Family Cremated
Boise, Idaho.—An entire family,
composed of Thophil Thenl, wife and
two grown daughters, were burned to
death early Monday morning in a fire
consuming their home on a farm six
miles west of Twin Falls. It is sus-
pected the bouse was robbed and then
fired to conceal the crime. Theni re-
cently came! to Idaho from Nebraska*
purchasing a valuable far#) in the
Twin Falls country. He was a man
of considerable means.
TRAGIC.
"I wrote her a poem on my new
.ypewriter. It began 'How like a flow-
er your face is.'"
"Yes."
"The cursed machine wrote It, 'How
like flour your face is!'"
TINY BABY'S PITIFUL CASE
"Our baby when two months old
was suffering with terrible eczema
from head to foot, all over her body.
The baby looked just like a skinned
rabbit. We were unable to put clothes
on her. At first it seemed to be a few
mattered pimples. They would break
the skin and peel off leaving the un-
derneath skin red as though it were
scalds. Then a few more pimples
would appear and spread all over the
body, leaving the baby all raw without
skin from head to foot On top of her
head there appeared a heavy scab a
quarter of an inch thick. It was aw-
ful to see so small a baby look as she
did. Imagine! The doctor was afraid
to put his hands to the child. We
tried several doctors' remedies but all
failed.
"Then we decided to try Cuticura.
By using the Cuticura Ointment we
softened the scab and it came off. Un-
der this, where the real matter was,
by washing with the Cuticura Soap
and applying the Cuticura Ointment,
a new skin soon appeared. We also
gave baby four drops of the Cuticura
Resolvent three times daily. After
three days you could see the baby
gaining a little skin which would peel
off and heal underneath. Now the
baby is foyr months old. She is a fine
picture of a fat little baby and all is
well. \ye only used one cake of Cuti-
cura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Oint-
ment and one bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent. If people would know what
Cuticura is there would be few suffer-
ing with eczema. Mrs. Joseph Koss-
mann, 7 St. John's Place, Ridgewood
Heights, N. Y., Apr. 30 and May 4, '09."
America's Opportunity in Turkey.
Dr. George Washburn, president of
Robert college, 1870-1903, writes:
"It is a great opportunity, a wonder-
ful opportunity, and it is a call espe-
cially to Americans. They believe in
'13 now in Turkey. They trust us.
There is nobody they believe in and
tmst as they do Americans in Turkey.
They know that we have no selfish
ends in view there. We do not want
any of their territory; we are not
going to try to overthrow the Turkish
sovernment; and they understand fully
that what we are doing there we are
doing for their good. They may think
we make mistakes, but they know we
are honest, and they know we are do-
ing it for their good. They trust us as
they trust nobody else, and conse-
quently it is a great opportunity, a
wonderful opportunity, for us to go on
and to try to make the people under-
stand who Christ is and what Christ is
to the world."
Advice.
"Your boy Jerry has a grand voice,"
said Mr. Dolan.
"Yes. He says he's going into grand
opera," replied Mr. Rafferty. "He
wants, says he, to have the crowds
leanin' forward to catch every tone as
he lifts his voice to express things that
io one but himself can fully compre-
hend."
"Jerry says that, does he?"
"He does."
"Tell him to be an auctioneer. He
can do the same thing and the money
is surer."

PREACH GOSPEL OF HEALTH
Plan to Have Om Sermon on 8unday,
April 24, Devoted to Scourge
of Tuberculosis.
Following campaigns against con-
sumption that have been carried on In
the churches of hundreds of cities, and
sermons on tuberculosis that have
been preached before thousands of con-
gregations during the past year, a
movement has been started by the Na-
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of Tuberculosis to estab-
lish a pej-manent tuberculosis Sunday,
on which it is hoped that every one of
the 33,000,000 church-goers in the
United States will hear the gospel of
health. This year the Sunday selected
Is April 24. It is planned that on April
24 tuberculosis sermons shall be
preached in all the churches of the
country. Literature will be distributed
to members of the congregations, and
in every way an effort will be made to
teach that tuberculosis is a dangerous
disease and that it can be prevented
and cured.
Clergymen who desire to obtain ad-
ditional Information In regard to tu-
berculosis will be able to secure litera-
ture from state and local anti-tubercu-
losis associations and boards of health,
as well as from the nationul asso-
ciation.

In Bad Fix
"I had a mishap at the age of 41, which left me in bad
fix," writes Mrs. Georgia Usher, of Conyers, Ga.
"I was unconscious for three days, and after that I
would have fainting spells, dizziness, nervousness, sick
headache, heart palpitation and many strange feelings.
"I suffered greatly with ailments due to the change of
life and had 3 doctors, but they did no good, so I concluded
to try Cardui.
"Since taking Cardui, 1 am so much better and can do
