This Is an unprecedented ' sight. ; Three rings, two elevated stages and a large hippodrome track are neces- sary to display the many feature in the performance and at no time it there an " idle minute In either of them.

Fifty uniformed ushers are in attendance to care for the ladies and children. Two performances will be given In this town Tuenday next at 2 and 8 p. m.

Mason, elected to the United States senate as a Republi can, will come out for the Democratic county ticket at a mass-meeting to be held at the Auditorium a week from next Tuesday In a speech which, it is promised, will be replete with sensational features. Senator Mason's declaration i fori the Democratic county ticket will be on the principle that the man is the issue in the county campaign. ; He will talk of "lib erty being above party." The Auditorium meeting Is a part of a plan that Mason has conceived.- He will attempt to get back Into tne United State senate by the votes of the Demo cratic members cf the Legislature with the aid of a few Republican votes that he hopes he can secure. That the Democrats have promised to deliver to Mason Is evidenced by the fact that the junior Illinois Senator has con sented to come out for the Democratic county members, ; " , If Ton Were Soared. easily you might suppose that the pain in tne lowest part oi yon back meant kid ney trouble.

Wllkeebarre, Pa.; Oct. ? 21.With shout that faril shook the convention building, the representatives of the 147, QOO mine workers who nave been on strike since last May. officially declared off at noon today the greatest contest ever waged between capital and labor, and placed all the questions of the strug gle Into the hands of the arbitration commission, appointed by the president of the United 8tates.- The vote to resume coal mining was a unanimous one and was . reached only after a warm debate. The principal objection to accepting the arbitration proposition was that bo proposition was contained In the scheme to take care, of those men who would fall to get back their old positions or would be able to get any work at all, The engineers and pumpmen get better pay than other classes of mine workers, and they did not care to ran the risk of losing altogether their old places and be compelled to dig coal for living. ' This question came up yesterday and was argued right op to the time the vote was taken. No one had a definite plan to offer to overcome the objection, and the report of the committee on resolu tions recommending that the strike be declared off, and that all Issues be placed In the hands of the arbitration ' commis sion for decision was adopted without the question being settled. The principal speech of the day was made by National Secretary-Treasurer W. B. Wilson, who practically tpoke for President Mitchell and, the national or ganisation. In a etrong argument he counseled the men to accept arbitration, the very plan the strikers themselves had offered, return to "work, and trust that the president's tribunal would do them justice.' ' . . ; The question of taking care of all who will fall to get work Immediately .'"will be a serious one for the union. There Js no doubt the executive boards will take care of the engineers, firemen and pump men, but there are thousands of others who will have to be looked after. - In some places hundreds will not be able to get work for weeks, and Jn other local! ties where the mines are In very bad con ditlon. there will be no employment for S .C3.
