quite large amount OF Hard Coal, and

TaE Milwaukee ship carpenters were
the only ones on the lakes who went out
on a strike on Thursday last. In the
other yards the demand is for nine hours
work per day and a corresponding reduc-

quite hard and it is generally believed
nine hours labor should constitute days
work.

SAVED FROM THE WRECK.

If the delicate organization OF woman
gets out of order, prompt application of
remedial agents is required to save it
from total wreck. In all such cases,
whether to assist nature in the discharge
OF her functions, or to repair damages
caused by diseases OF special organs,
there is 10 remedy SO mild, and yet so eff
fective, as DR.. Pierce's "Favorite Pre-
scription," prepared at the Worlds Dis
pensary, at Buffalo, n. Y, and admins
tered for many years to thousands of
patients with the happiest results.

Blaming the Female Voters.

CONTESTS GROWING OUT OF THE RECENT CITY
ELECTION IN BOSTON.
Ex-Alderman P. ]. MacGuire filed a motion
with the city clerk in Boston Saturday of his
intention to contest the seat of Alderman Short
in the next board of aldermen on the ground
that Short secured his election by the vote of
women cast in the 9th aldermanic district. A
Boston special to the Philadelphia Press says:
This is the beginning of what promises to be a
long contest III the next board of aldermen, and
probably in the courts. 1t is not wholly the
work of MacGuire. Ex-Alderman Lee has
served notice of his intention to contest the
seat of Alderman Rogers, and ex-Alderman
on the same ground as alleged by MaeGuire.
The scheme originated when the recount of
votes was first petitioned for, in the minds Of
the mayors friends. The claim was made be-
fore the board of aldermen that women had
voted straight party tickets instead of a sepa-
rate ticket containing only the names of can
didates for school boards. The check list
ought to quickly settle this point, at least in
the precincts where intelligent counting was
done. In some precincts no reliance can be
placed on the check list, because of the stupid
condition Of some of the election officers
caused by drink. II women did vote the
straight party tickets the wardens appointed by
the present power are to blame. MacGuire,
however, was not the regular, and, it is said.
that in ward % the democrats worked the wo-
man vote for all it was worth. The scheme is
laughed at by the republican members of the
board

Cigars a Recent Addition.

From the P1ttsblry Times.
The use of cigars by civilized people is much
more recent than most people suppose. The
real cigar, which is pure roll Of tobacco alone,
probably originated in Cuba, where the very
best cigars are still made. If not there it was
undoubtedly in one of the West India islands.
Their origin with us, as in Europe. did not be-
gin until early in the present century. 1t is
said that OF all the various cook books pub
hshed between 1900 and 1875 and books which
treat Of the pleasures and adjuncts Of taste be-
fore the last named date, not one refers to the
after-dinner cigar or to cigars at all Cigars
at all. Cigars are now made all over the civil
lied world. They are produced very extern
sively in Bremen and Hamburg. and at Seville,
in Spain. But at Manila, in THE Philippine
islands, the largest factories are to be found in
some of which 10, 900 girls are employed.

Christmas All the Year.

Mr.. Curtis in the Easy Chair
Once there was q maid, Marian, who played
at forfeits and snap-dragon and watched the
morris dancers and hobby horse and heard
the waits singing under the cool moon and at
last, caught beneath the mistle toe she paid
the sweetest forfeit of all And in the bottom
Of her heart. despite her rosy cheeks, she felt
that she paid 1t willingly and secretly sighed
to think that Christmas comes but once year
But long afterward, when for many year she
had been married to the youth who caught her
beneath the sacred bush, as she made the
plum pudding every Christmas and helped to
hang the little stockings by the freside and
hunted the slipper and gsyly bluffed the blind
man, she remembered that il was not the snap
dragon or the waits, nor even that happy for
felt, which made the old Christmas, but some
thing that did not set with the sun nor die
with the carol of the waits. She was caught
now under the mistletoe, not by that youth
only, but by the little fellows with pudgy arms,
who covered her all over with kisses; and
when she was tired Of romping and the little
fellows with pudgy arms we're fast asleep hold
ing their dolls and horses and elephants and
dogs, she said to that youth of other years:
1T was not the games and the pudding and
the mistletoe that made the old Christmas--it
was love; and love makes Christmas all the

The immigration Investigation.

THE REPORT TO BE READY EARLY IN JANUARY
CHAIRMAN FORD SAYS.
Chairman Ford. of the congressional immi-
grafton investigating committee, left Pittsburg
Saturday for Detroit. While at the Union
station, speaking of the report that the COM
mittee will make, he said: "Our report will be
ready not later than January 10. We are now
finishing our investigation. II is not likely
that we will 60 to Providence after leaving
Detroit, but we will probably take evidence for
New York. No, we do not expect to again call
up the Castle Garden officials. While the evil
dence goes to show that the employees at Castle
Garden are blamable, yet it must be remem-
bered that they have too many people to look
after. The system of examination there is GER
tGinly poor one. There are five ratings at
Castle Garden. an examiner being at each one,
through which as high as 5000 immigrants
have rushed in a day, making it impossible for
q thorough examination of each. Four hundred
thousand immigrants pass through Castle
Garden in a year. As the rush to this country
each year is between May and August, it can be
readily seen that in some days the number is
as high as 5000. We will recommend a consular
inspection on the other side of the ocean.
think that this is the only way the immigration
question can be solved. Congress will un-
doubtedly take some decided action about the
matter. As the next session is the short one,
action mayb be deferred until the next Congress-
assemblies"

Mary AndersOn's Brother Joe.

From the LOUISVILLE Post.
A gentleman Just from New York city tells
me that Joe Anderson, ''our" Mary's big and
handsome brother, and Miss Barrett, the
daughter of Lawrence Barrett, the actor, are
to be married January 10. When Joe Ander-
son lived in Louisville he was an awkward
bashful youth, and gave but little promise of
the great personal beauty he is now gifted
with. Many Of his old schoolboy friends would
hardly recognize in the handsome, dashing
fellow "little Josey," as they used to call him
But then Miss Anderson herself was a very
gawky girl between the age of twelve and six
teen when she resided on Gray street, and pos
sibly If it hadn't been for her great determine
ton to go on the stage, and that wonderful, in
spring voice of hers, she would not be what
she is to-day, the most beautiful and bewitch-
ing actress in the world

A Curious CITY.

Albany Journal, City of Mexico Letter.
Imagine city with most Of its streets mar
row, muddy andcrowded, where the seller Of
lottery tickets takes the place of the newsboy.
where the PAYERS of the street, the conductors
Of the cars the clerks in the stores, the police
men on their beats, the soldier with his mus
ket. the barefooted men and women who
peddle their wares and the very begg airs at
the doorways all smoke cigarettes or cigars.
The street cars carry the coffined dead to the
cemetery, with the mourners in the cars that
follow. Men, women and children, half-naked
and without shoes, bear the burdens that we
peddle the hmpid fluid from the aqueducts
from house to house. Every other woman has
a baby dangling contentedly from a sack upon
her back. Imagine the picture and you get
glimpse of the street scenes that you look upon
about the grand plaza facing the costly palace
and the magnificent cathedral of the City Of
Mexico.

The Day of the Violet.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
''VIolets, sweet violets," are the rage Of the
hour. Any other flower seen on the street is
considered by high authorities, who have re-
ceived the latest advice, as in bad taste. II
some one were to send lady bunch of roses,
should she throw them away or decline them
with thanks because roses are out of style? My
informant. who has just returned from the east,
says white violets are succeeding lilies of the
valley for bridal bouquets, and in this case the
bridesmaids carry dark blue Parma violets.
In one case that came under her observation
all the flowers used about the house for the
wedding decorations we're yioets. The cost Of
the display was fabulous. Great punches Of
maiden-hair ferns are also used for brides
maids. Fashionable women are using violet
perfume and no other, and with good reason,
for the odor is delicious

There Are Twins and Twins.

From the Boston Transcript.
The other night the subject Of twins was up
as matter Of conversation. The resemblance
of twins is always interesting, and some stories
were told which were new to the listener. One
was about pair Of twin sisters, excellent la
dies, who lived near each other in Massachu-
sets town. One Of these twins was ailing
somewhat, and one day her sister, bonnetless
and shawless, ran in to see how she was, and
found that the ailing one wanted her to do
an important errand. So she put on the ailing
sisters shawl and bonnet and went to the store.
Arriving there, she saw her own image in a
large looking-glass, and exclaimed:
why, you decided to come yourself, after
all. don't think you were well enough!'
By way Of the opposite of this story, men,
Der OF the party told Of country woman who
was asked II her twin sister resembled her.
Laws nor' exclaimed the old lady; eve
amt no more alike than 8 if I want us t all.
She's just as different as 1 be t'other way!''

Christmas Chimes.

From Good Housekeeping.
Do not make Christmas day Of balancing

Santa Claus comes down the chimney when
love kindles the fire.
Christmas is the day when the children get
up without being called
Better is little gift where love is than q
necklace of diamonds for appearances sake.
The most approved invitation etiquette for
Christmas dinner is that prescribed in Luke
xiv. 1914.
Give your wife something for herself-not
piece of furniture or an article for family use.
Ditto as to your husband.

that We have been the means of Frightening

s'Deuced Clever" Don't You Know.

From the Lewiston Journal.
friend Of mine was visited not long ago by
an English gentleman, who seemed to take a
great interest in whatever was shown to him
and to be highly appreciative of American in
situations, howbeit, his admiration was rather
monotonous in expression.
Ny friend piloted him through our cotton
mills.
"Deuced clever, old boy, deuced clever" he
said, as they came out.
Them hts host showed him large Auburn
shoe factory.
George, that's deuced clever!" he ex-
claimed, enthusiastically.
On the way across the bridge the English
gentleman stood still for few minutes and
gazed at the foamy falls roaring down over the
rocks.
"By Jove! That's deuced cleyeri" said he.

A Long COurtshfp Ended.

Chattanooga Dispatch to the st. Louis Republic.
A courtship Of thirty-fve years duration
ended to-day in Knox county by the marriage
of Joshua shipe and Miss Margaret Douglass.
In 1853 the couple became engaged, but owing
to opposition from a sister Of the man and the
mother of the girl, the wedding was postponed
from time to time. The obstinate sister died
few days since. The mother relented, and an
unexampled love-making ended happily.
