Advises Concessions.
TRIEST, April 10. The general
strike at Flume has been settled.
Work was resumed Friday morning.
The national council granted all the
demands of the strikers, Gabriele
d'Annunslo interceded on behalf of
the strikers and advised this action
be taken.
- i
FIUME, April 10. The strike lead
ers asserted that they were in
sistent on having Gabriele d'An
nunzio leave Kiume. They said that
if they were unsuccessful locally, the
strike would spread to Triest and then
to Milan and threaten Italy.
The workers demanded normal food
rations which they said were impos
sible because of the partial blockade.

today, the last train carrying away
many persons who did not desire to
face the threatened uprisings.
The national council, which is under
the thumb of D'Annunsio. is now be
set by the dilemma of ousting the poet
by obeying the strikers or of obeying
D'Annunzio and continuing the ration
ing of the strikers.
While the employes of the local
newspapers have joined in the general
strike, even the poet's own organs
have failed to publish. D'Annunsio
now is faced with a disagreement
among the troops over monarchist
and republican feuds.
This coupled with the attitude of
the working groups, places him in the
most serious situation since his oc
cupation of Flume.
A gymnasium exhibition reflective
of the excellent training in athletics
and folk dances and general educa
tional physical culture among pupils
In the grade schools, and In the com
munity houses, was given Friday

rected by Alta Eastham Travis, in
which several dozen talented little
girls depicted in pantomime a pic
turesque legend In a woodland set
time. In this dance arrangement Bessie
Carr in an interpretation dance as
the Gpddess of the Flame, Althea
Dwycr as the Spirit of Life, and a
group of woe little maids as wood
nymphs, attracted especial attention
for their graces and natural methods.
Other dance specinlties embraced
a solo by Carolyn Whitney as Pan,
six
Muses, a trio of vestal virgins, and
Diana interpretation by Mrs. Travis.
In the entry, which preceded the pro
gramme, the entire assemblage of
classes was grouped attractively on
the stage, the smaller children, some
of whom were only 3 years old, seated
on mats at the front of the stage and
at the back of the stage the women's
classes, comprised of mothers and
other adult women in the school dis
tricts who take personal activity in
gymnasium work.

GIRARD. Kan.. April 10. Whatever
the next move of officers of district
14, United Mine Workers of America,
may be, it will be directed toward
forcing Governor Henry J. Allen to
"make good on his Industrial court
law he has talked so much about, or
to fail," Alexander Howat, president
of the district, said late last night in
the Crawford county Jail.
Appeal Not Vet Decided.
"1 do not know whether we shall
appeal this case to the supreme
court." Howat said. "That is a matter
in which we will be guided by our at
torney. "There Is another way to bring this
thing to a showdown. That other way
is a strike of the miners of the dis
trict. "The workers of Kansas are, not
going to submit to this law. It isn't
law; it's an outrage."
Howat, in a statement to the press,
said, in part:
"This industrial-court law is in
tended to enslave the working class
of this state and to destroy organized
labor and Is intended to put the mine
workers and other classes of labor
back where they were years ago be
fore we had an organisation.
Labor Rights Asserted.
"The mine workers of district No.
14 were compelled to strike for four
years in order to compel the coal op
erators in this state to recognize our
right to belong to a labor organiza
tion. "I am determined that the mine
workers of this district shall never
submit to this form of slavery which
is provided for in the court of indus
trial relations. We have committed
no crime of any kind. We are put in
jail merely because we refuse to tell
three corporation lawyers something
about mining business in this state.
"We expect to remain In jail indef
initely from present indications."
Selfishness to Blame, Declares Mr.
Grirnth Nelson Pike Dis
cusses Employes' Side.
"The strongest of all the feelings
of human nature is the underlying
cause of the present-day spirit of un
rest," said Franklin T. Griffith of the
Portland Railway. Light & Power
company Friday night, addressing a
meeting of the Rotary club at the
Multnomah hotel. "It is selfishness,"
he said, "which has helped produce
ideas in direct opposition to all
American ideals. The man who says
that he has not a fair hance along
with other men is laboring under a
delusion that effort is not the po'tent
factor in individual success and that
eventually those who have can in
some way be compelled to give to
those who have not.
'"In reality, as long as any man!
thinks that anything can be acquired
without effort it will be impossible
for him to advance. What we need
is a broader basis of understanding:
a code of morals that will apply
equally to both stdes, and a realiza
tion that after all 'honesty is the
best policy.1 "
Nelson Pike, representing the em
ployes' side of the subject, appealed
for a different viewpoint in the re
lation between capital and labor.
"The employer," he said, "may often
refer to this spirit of unrest as Imag
inary. But. supposing It is. Its effect
is nevertheless the same and must be
dealt with in some, way sooner or
later." The subject was later thrown
open for general discussion and Will
iam Ball spoke of covetousness as
humanity's besetting sin. Walter
Jenkins spoke briefly on the Idea of
community service and led the club
in a number of songs. '

A SURE CURE
"When a widower begins to wonder whether she will think h
is too old for her he ceases to complain about his lumbago."
But the man who gets up in the morning all out of sorts
with lame back, stiff limbs, a dull "achy" head, better look out for
himself maybe his kidneys are to blame.
Swollen hands, ankles, feet are due to a dropsical condition,
often caused by disordered kidneys. Naturally when the kidneys
are deranged the blood is filled with poisonous waste matter, which
settles in the feet, ankles and wrists; or under the eyes in bag-like"
formations. v?
As a remedy for those easily recognized symptoms of inflam
mation caused by uric acid as scalding urine, backache and fre"
quent urination, as well as sediment in the urinei, or if uric acid
in the blood has caused rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, gout, it is
simply wonderful how quickly An-u-ric acts; the pains and stiff-.
ness rapidly disappear, for Anuric (anti-uric-acid) is many times"
more potent than lithia and often eliminates uric acid as hot water
melts sugar.
Anuric is a recent scientific discovery by Doctor Pierce of
the Invalids' Hotel in Buffalo, N. Y. Send ten cents there tor
trial package of Anuric.
