Socialists and workingmeu.


CHICAGO, Feb. i.--About 400 persons
were present in the West Tenth street
Turner hall this afternoon to listen to A
JOINT discussion between members of
the socialists and the trades assemble;
the latter having recently passed resolu-
tions denouncing socialism on behalf of
the wage-workers OF the city. A num-
Der OF persons spoke ON each side of the
question. On behalf of the trades' ms.
sembiy 1t was claimed that the condi-
tlon OF the laboring classes in
TINS country had been steadily
l. proving instead OF growing worse:
that they were better housed, better
clothed and better fed; in fact, that in
every way they were better off than
ever before IN the history of the world
On behalf of the socialists it WIN
claimed that workingmen were still
suffering great wrongs; that statistics
showed that for every dollar the
worker received the capitalist re.
ceived eight; that though WORK
men nowadays ,blacked their
boots, other workmen were starving
"a condition of affairs which had oniy
come about recently; that tramps were
unknown prior to 1878; that millionases
nad Increased too rapidly within the
past hundred years, and that the only
remedy was to force retribution.

about the settlement of some money
matter, when both drew their pistols
and commence firing simultaneously.
After the afl'ray DR., Allen staggered into
the house and upon entering his room
iellupon the bed, exclaiming: "I am

A Michigan strawberry grower practices
straw mulching of the vines to keep the berries
clean, and when the season is ended burns the
straw as it lies. The heat clears off the leaves
and creepers from the stands, besides destroying
the seeds of weeds that lie on the surface, as
we'll as insects and larvae. After several years
trial 1t has been found that when rain comes
new leaves start out from the crown of the
plant which is uninjured by the fiery ordeal
through which it has passed. The vines are
then cultivated as usual The first burning over
the vines was an accident but the resultproving
so good the practice has been continued.
