Real Temperance workers.

The timeshas been reached that railway man
agemRnts will trust none but first-class, sober
men at the throttles of their locomotives, and
to-day railway managers are doing more than
anyother; class of citizens to advance the tenn
perance cause, and making but little fuss over
it. Train orders must beiread with great care
and their instructions carefully followed, and4it
is,here: more than at any other point that the
drunken engineer is liable to5commit an error
which, Though small initself may lead to disas-
treus results. Bad spots ON the.road must be
looked out for, time cards must be rightly fol-
lowed. steam must be kept up. crossings and
whistleposts must be noticed; and. above all the
track ahead requires close attention. as the
eyes must not leave it more than a few seconds
at a time. And the good work the Brotherhood
9fLoeomotive Engineers and Eireme1l are also
doing in this direction is highly creditable.

OF n man who is now a sober and prospe-

man went to Baltimore hunting work. He
got on a six.weeks'-drunk during cool
weather. and finally seeded down into no.
thing more than q long buster and pair OF
pants. He was placed In the lookup till he
sobered, and then went to work at 80 a
week. A house then employed him at $40
month, and soon after gave him 5000 and
sent him TO North Carolina to sell some
goods. He went TO Raleigh. and. meeting
with old friends, got on fearful spree; laid
out all night; had his money stolen. and even
the shoes from his feet. In dsmay he tele-
graphed his house to send him money. that
be had been robbed. They sent 1t, and or.
dered him back mt once. For two days the
proprietor would not speak 10 bin. The
third day he sent for him and said: You
are great big giant OF man, with fist
like maui, and you talk Of going to the
quiet, good old state OF North Carolinaand
being robbed, Now, here Is 5000; take II
and 90 back to that State. and see II you

dist Episcopal Zion Church presiding.

thodist Means OF Grace" prepared by
Bishop Haley, of the CoIored Methodist
Episcopal Church. was read by Rev. +. NJ.
Hamilton, OF the Colored Methodist Episco-
pal Church, OF Washington. 1.-THE
Church, II said, SHOULD he the embodi-
ment OF innocence and piety, and the
preaching of the Gospel should be
considered the most important means
OF grace. Nothing can take the place
of preachers who are filed with the spirit
OF God. The camp-mcetiOg was another
factor in the salvation OF souls. and should
never be eliminated from the system OF
Methodlsm. The effect Of fervent prayer,
fasting. abstinence, and Of class-meetings, as
means OF grace, were severaly considered.
Bishop Andrea sannounced that the success

account OF the sermons and proceedings OF

PITTSBURGH. December 15.-Manufac-
turers say the iron.workers who are men,
beers OF the Amalgamated Association must
submit to a reduction next year. or there
will be a shutdown. The scale Is not
signed until next June, yet the question OF
wages Is being freely discussed. Presi-
don't Weihe. of the Amalgamated Assoc
citation, left for the East several
weeks ago, and nothing has been given out
by the members OF the Association as re-
CARDS the object OF his trip except that 1t
was on business for the Association. To-
day il was learned that Weihe was work
ing up the order in The East, and is making
a desperate effort TO get all iron-wOrkers
into the Association before the scale
Is presented next year. The east
ern district is said to be the weakest
point IN tue organization. A large NUM-
Der Of New England mills are run with
non-un,on men. A prominent manufac-
furer said to- day that be did not see how
the iron-men OF this district could ask Tor
the present prices next year. The price OF
pudding was from 1925 to S3.SS in the
East. and western manufacturers nave
been compelled to do business at disad-
vantage from this reason. He says there
are a number Of mills in this. CITY that are
not able TO run and paw the present prices.
This, he contends, Is the cause OF the Irreg-
ularity OF trade here and OF the Spasmod!o
depressions.
