June 14. ine real sufferers when tne men strike the women who cheer their husbands comfort starving children and bear tbelr burdens In Spartanlike silence are telling their aide to the senate strike Investigation committee in Charleston. The actual conditions that, existed are being re vealed from the lips of the women and men who participated In the strike. It Is not a pretty story. All agree that there have been serious hardships.

Some of the witnesses are garbed In black women whose hus bands died In what even the dignified senate committee how agrees was "actual warfare," All today's witnesses are being hurried through their testimony so that next week the committee can hear the coal companies. The attorneys representing the coal companies controlling the Cabin and Paint Creek districts say that the stories now being told are not true. And the committee will give them their opportunity to refute the tales of the mines next Monday. The wltneBneB for the miners today Bgreed that the armed mine guards caused all the trouble. Had they been kept out they BHld there would have been little rioting.

And this Is one of the cMef points of the Inquiry that the senators are anxious to clear up. Only the problems of what caused the conditions; whether there can be a federal remedy therefor and whether the corporations of the state are a trust as alleged by the miner's leaders are left to be settled by the senators. The first will be out of the way by Monday night and the com mittee would like to get the second completed by Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest. MRS. CARTMEK, ENTERTAINS.

Advertising By The United FresB. BERLIN. June 14. Pope Plus was the first today to congratulate Kaiser Wilhelm II on his twenty-fifth anniversary as ruler of the German Empire. Cardinal Kopp and Mon-slgnor Prince Crowy, a prelate of the Pontiff's household, brought the con gratulations of tlie Vatican to the palace.

Tomorrow the Kaiser will round out his twenty-fifth year as ruler of the United Germans and he will have the great pleasure of witnessing, the fulfillment of Mb often expressed wish, to complete a quarter century reign without war. This is record which no other European monarch has achieved. A country-wide Ju bilee has been arranged to commem orate the event. From every quarter of the world the Kaiser today was deluged with telegrams and cablegrams of congratulation Including one from President Wilson of the United States. Andrew Carnegie, the American advocate of world peace, has engaged rooms in a Berlin hotel announcing that he would congratulate the Emperor In person.

Dubbed the "war lord of Europe" for some reason, the Kaiser perhaps deserves the title less than any other present day monarch. Times without number he has withstood all efforts to drag the Empire Into con flict three times within the past year. Berlin Is decorated in honor of the Kaiser's jubilee as It has not been since his grandfather, Emperor Wil helm I returned at the head of the victorious troops from France In 1871. The gala apearance of the city far outstrips the decorations recent- ly put out in honor of the wedding of Princess Victoria Luise and Prince Ernest, of Cumberland. Tomorrow will be given oner most ly to religious services, the Kaiser himself planning to preach at a gigantic open-air field service, where he will address 50,000 troops, If the weather ill permit Monday the fesUvitk will reach their when the rulers of the other twenty-five German States that make up the Empire, will be In Berlin to personally congratulate the Kaiser.

The Kings of Wurtemburg and Saxony and Prince Regent Lud-wlg of Bavaria are expected. Andrew Carnegie is scheduled to see the Kaiser on Tuesday. WEST CHILDREN DELIGHT.

West Church is noted for the surprises which are "sprung" always at the different entertainments, and the delightful one of last, evening was no exception to the rule. FISHING SAEAMER TO CLE VH.

1 Up to within the last few years it has been considered a breach of etiquette In certai" businesses and professions to advertise. These men have said- "Oh, yes, advertising Is all very well' for the butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker, but it would not do at all for us. It is not good business ethics." In later years, however, that idea is being abandoned, together with a lot of other old and wornout theories. The public now looks to the advertising section of the good newspapers for information on all subjects. The demand has created the supply.

Feople want to know not only where they can spend their money, but where end how to invest it. This has led bankers, brokers, and other -business and professional men to tell their stories in the best newspapers. The advertising pages of a newspaper like THE EVENING JOURNAL ere a. veritable Index of most lines of business activity in this community, and the day is not far distant, when every legitimate business and every recognized profession will understand the value of advertising.
