further application OF he rule of short
Hours must be defeoded 90 other than
business grounds
"The claim urged against reduction
of hours of labor, that the time gained
would be spent al grog shops, and,
therefore. that the fleet upon the la
boring class would be deleriOus, is not
borne out by facts. 1t is stated upon
competent authority that the women
always use their spare time we'll and
that less drunkenness is, as . rule, to
be observed among short time than
among long time laborers. There is q
physiological reason for this. Long
tune labor exhausts the nervous ener.
gy aud leads to the craving for 81 imu-
lants. But though the time gained
by short hours should at first be spent
injudiciously, this would not show
that such would always be the case. 1t
is manifestly impossible for man to
cultivate his mental and spiritual ma
ture when he can give to ii but the fag
end of an exhaustive day. Long time
therefore, means the permanency OF
the present degraded condition in
which many laborers at present exist.
Short time means the possibility, at
least, of growth. This fear of wasted
time, then, cannot be urged against
the claim which laborers have set up
for themselves for short hours of work
but it does not suggest new line OF
activity for those who are interested
in social progress. 1t lies largely with
men and women outside the labOring
class to say what shall be done with
the tine saved.
"And it may be interesting to notice
that this agitation for eight hours is
by no means new. Daring the labor
demonstration that took place between
1915 and 1920 in England one of the
common banners vast
"Eight hours of work,
Eight hours of play,
Eight hours of sleep,
Eight shillings day."

ShreWd Pension Swindlers.

A special dispatch to the Globe
Democrat from Washington, May 2,
says: Some very singular pension
cases have Just been made up in the
records of the War Department. A
Frenchman by the name Of Rolinger
deserted from Maximilian's army in
Mexico and enlisted in a volunteer
Uuited States regiment. There were
many other Frenchmen in this regim.
ent and he feared that he might be
recognized and delivered up the French
Government. He accordingly deserted
and soon after enlisted in another
regiment under another name and
fought to the close of the war with
gallantry. He was wounded once or
twice, and ordinarily would be entitled
to a pension. At the close of the war
he settled in the West and resumed
his old name, He finally decided to
apply for a pension, when the fact that
he had deserted came out as part of
his record and he could draw no pen~
sion. The examination of the records
showed that man by the same name,
and from the same regiment as Rolin-
ger, was already drawing pension.
Following out this clew, it was discov.
cred that an Italian by the name of
Gueitta had impersonated Rollinger
under his assumed name, had made
out good case and was drawing a
pension and had already received a
large sum os back pension money.
Following up this man Gueitti, it
was discovered that he was one OF the
cleverest rascals with whom the Pen
sion Office has had to deal. He was a
soldier in the Union army, and first
proceeded to secure pension on his
own record. He then took up the case
of a man who had enlisted as substi-
tute, who had been taken prisoner and
who the records showed had died.
When confronted with this death
record Gueitti was at first staggered,

ENTITLED TO A SHORT DAY.
The Efficiency Of Labor Increased Until
Eight Hours Become a Necessity.

A dispatch from ithaca, N. Y, May
3, says: Prot. Henry Carter Adams
resumed his lecture here to-day before
the students of Cornell University on
"Unsettled Questions of Political Eco
nomy." During his remarks upon Tie
labor problem he touched upon he
topic of short hours for the laborine
day. "Tnis question:" he said, sis
claiming large share Of public ntlen-
tion at the present time on account o!
the agitation among the workingmen
for eight hours as normal working
day. In order to understand it in all
lis bearings we must first consider
three seperate lines Of inquiry respect.
ing: First-lt is rational from the
stand point Of social wellbeing that
the laborer's hours of work should be
curtailed? Second-What effect will
it have upon the amount, the quality
and cost of the goods produced? Third
What will the working ,psople do
with the time saved from labor?
"With regard to the first question it
was said II it be>not rational TO cur.
tail the working hours then that sense
OF satisfaction 80 generally felt when a
new labor saving machine is invented
ia without basis. The great inventions
OF the past century have increased the
efficiency of labor at least five hundred
per cent, and il is contrary to our
simplest conceptions of justice that the
lot Of the laborer should be as hard
under modern industrial conditions as
before nature rendered gratuitous ass
sistance to serve the industrial purpose
of man. Labor saving machines is to
save labor, and should not be pervert-
ed to contribute primarily to the
higher satisfaction Of privileged
class. "One of the great faIsehoods of
modern society is that labor is necessa.
rily bound up with pain. This idea
springs from the fact that most labor
is so prolonged as to become wearis
some, and men attribute to all labor,
the unfortunate experience of the last |
three or four hours of each days labor
Should short hours become general we
should cease 10 regard labor as necessa

vanced material civilization.
sit is difficult to say what effect,
shorter hours in all industries would
have upon cost OF product. Business
men are averse to experiments of this
sort and prefer to 60 upon the assump-
tion that the product will be in propo
tion to time. But such experiments as
have been made by working overtime
show that, in the long run, as muck
can be done in ten hours per day as in
twelve or thirteen. This is shown to
be the case in textile industries, and
an experiment In the lumber district
of Michigan shows the rule to apply
also to that business. Nor is this djffis
cult to understand. A man is not an
inexhaustable fund of labor energy.
He can get out of him all there is in
ten hours. And besides this, contents
ment among laborers is an essential
condition to high efficiency. Without

Etchers and Etching.

1t is not unusual among the uninitiated
to hear the term etching applied to pretty
little vignettes drawn with the pencil or
pen. This is Incorrect. Etching is not an
effect. but process. To produce an etch-
ing the artist takes plate, usually of cop
per, and coats it with preparation OF wax
and olher ingredients. Upon this ground
he draws his subject with a sharp-pointed
instrument in such a manner that each
scratch will expose the copper, and in
exactly the same manner as if he were
making pen-drawing. He then immerses
the plate in dilute nitric acid, to the end
that the uncovered portion or scratched
lines may be bitten or eaten into by the
acid. This is a rude description of the
process; but there are many notifications
and peculiar methods used by individual
artists. The most important of these is
what is known as dry point, the effect of
which is to give velvety richness, when
printed, to certain portions of the work.
The printing of an etching is an oper.
alton requiring much artistic skill, as the
plates depend largely for their effect upon
the manner in which they are linked. 1t
is for this reason that many etchers print
their own plates.
The prints are made on drawing paper
and vellum paper, but proofs are usually
drawn on paper imported from Japan,
made principally from the cocoons of the
silk-worm.
Etchings, unlike steel engravings, cannot
be printed in very great numbers, and have
a commercial value of from ten TO one hun
dred dollars, and even more.
While we must admit that we have no
names to put into competition with the two
or three great reproductive etchers of Eu-
rope THAT is, those who reproduce we'll
known paintings by means of etching),
perhaps in no country in the world has
more original, free, creative etching been
produced than in the United States. Among
the number of men who have done good
work in this direction is ]. A. S. Monks,
the etcher of several well-known plates
such as In an Old Pasture, The Hill
side" The Mountain top ETC.; the pre-
MUM plate for the Magazine of Art,
and plates in the published collections

and Recent American Etchings. Elk

CASTING ATwELvE-INCH GUN-The fourth
attempt to cast the last of the large rifles for
the Government was successfully made at
the South Boston Iron Works on the 5th of
April, under the supervision of Lieutenant
Borup, of the army, and Lieutenant Com
mander Lyon, of the navy. Several other
men prominent in military life witnessed
the casting, Three large furnaces were
used in the melting, each containing about
thirty-five tons of ore. The fires were
started at about 0 o'clock on Sunday night.
and at 1880 yesterday afternoon the iron
was in condition to run, when the signal TO
pour was given. The gun pit had been
most carefully prepared, and the core which
hung down into the middle of it was one of
the stoutest and best ever made. At the
end of twenty-five minutes the metal had
filled the pit, the holes of the furnaces were
plugged up, the cutters that conveyed the
metal from the furnaces to the gun cradle
were soon emptied and the first shape of
the last of the of the 54-ton rifles was COM
pleted. In about four weeks the core will
be taken out and the gun will be removed
from the pit. All four of these 12-inch
guns, when the present one is completed,
will measure 30feet in length and weigh 81
tons. The powder charge will be 265
