THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR,


Since the recent reduction of wages
at the Broadford mines, the Knights
of Labor have been holding meetings
with a view of restoring the old rates.
A meeting was held at Broadford
Wednesday evening, when members
from all along the River were present.
Although the proceedings have not
been made public, still the officers of
that organization state that com
mittee of three, consisting of William
Kennedy of HALEY K. of L., William
Parker of Bnllion X. of L., and Har-
nv Blake of Broadford K. of l.. was
chosen to confer with Messrs. Kin
near, Haight and Miller. This com
mittee met the gentlemen Thursday
afternoon, and the interview lasted
two hours and forty minutes, during
which the Knights argued their side
of the case and listened to the argu-
ments of the mining men. The lat
ter stated that they could not afford
to pay $3.50, and operate the mines at
loss. The Knights argued that
miners could not afford to work for
less than $3.50, considering their cost
of living and other expenses. Al
though the conference did not result
in any nearer approach to an agree
ment, still the committee were CRATE
full for the uniform courtesy with
which they were received, and for the
attention which the mining men gave
to their statements and views. Among
other things the Knights promised,
in case the old standard rate of wa
ges was restored, to exert their in
fluence for the reduction of railroad
rates on ore, and they think they
have good reasons for believing that
their efforts in this direction will be
effectual.
In conversation with News Miner
reporter, Friday, delegation of the
Knights stated that the action to be
taken by their organization would be
rational and peaceable. A meeting
will be held, when it is thought a
definite line of procedure will be de-
cided upon. AS long as the Knights
conduct shall be in harmony with law
and order, they will certainly have
public sympathy in their worthy eff
forts.

Mr.. Chamberlain remarks on the
contingency of Canadian separation
excite no resentment in England.
His admission that tho mother state
would not offer either remonstranoe
OF resistance If the confederated
provinces we're to withdraw from the
empire, is not oontradicted by Lon
don journals which have discussed
the subject. The St. James Gazette
goes so far as to say that nine hun
dred and ninety-nine Englishmen out
OF thousand would have answered
the question very much as Mr.. Cham
berlain has done, and have freely con-
ceded that If the Canadians think
they would be happier under the
stars and stripes or under Union
Jack OF their own, the British govern
ment must give them an aifeotiouate
blessing and let them go their way.

KICKS AND KlCKERS.

the Average Editor.

the Average Editor.
One thing that makes the life Of
newspaper man unpleasant is that he
hears so much kicking. Nearly every
man has large, illustrated grievance
with velvet binding and gold clasp,
and when he feels that it needs airing
he at once hunts up the most .con-
venient reporter and delivers cor
pulent lecture on his favorite theme.
Some of these kicks are of public inter-
est and gladly received, but there are
many which concern only the kicker.
Only yesterday a gentleman whose
name is a household word thought it
would be a good scheme for the Journal
to publish whitening and scathing
editorial because his neighbors'
chickens reost on his fence.
This paper is always willing
to wither and seattle until the cows
come home when the public interests
will thereby be promoted, but it hardly
pays to pour out torrent of wrath
upon the defenseless heads of few
well-meaning but misguided hens. An
other citizen is being corroded by sor-
row because Il young lady next door
persists in playing the piano late in
the evening. In case of this kind the
aggrieved party should take the law in
his own hands and come down on the
offender like a wolf on the fold, 1t
would not be seemly for great moral
newspaper to launch into sarcasm and
invective in his behalf. A good,
wholesome, well-directed kick very
frequently has salutary effect on So
ciety, but the indiscriminate kick is to
be avoided 1t frequently involves the

BACKWARD EYEBROWS.
A TOnsOrial Artist Prescribes Treatment
Which He Guaraptees.


"Will you have your eyebrows
treated, sir?" asked an attendant in q
fashionable tonsorial establishment on
Broadway the other evening. The
customer assented and when the oper-
alton was completed a reporter OBJ
tanned the chair vacated When he
asked the man what treating the eye
brows consisted Of and what was the
object, he replied:
you have noticed that there are
many people who have very faint eye
brows, in many cases being nearly inn
perceptible This, of course, is very
annoying to those who pride themselves
on their personal appearance, and
| conceived the idea of attempting
to remedy the defect First, clip the
hairs to an equal length, and then
gently but thoroughly rub the skin
with sweet oil. OF course one trial
will not accomplish the end, but a few
will. Should the hair of the brows
fall out or be burned, Iuse compound
of five grains of sulphate of quinine
and one ounce of alcohol. This will
not only cause the hair to grow, but will
make it solf and glossy"
DO many come to you for this pur-
poseP''
''Oh, yes. generally effect an i'm
nroyement i'm a few sittinps. and if i'm
some cases the hair will not grow
thicllly at first, why the customer re-
turns with the hope that it may be in
duced to do so later, which nearly al
ways is the case" IN T. Mail and

THE HUSBANDS PART.
How a Man should Assist His Wife in Her
HOuaekenninP Work.

How a Man Should Assist His wife in Her
housekeeping Work
A man should first of all help his
wife in planning her work. Let every
husband give his wife the benefit of his
practical business experience, and adj
wise with her how she may best arrange
and time her several duties that they
may least conflict.
In the second place the husband
should give the wife the full amount of
money necessary properly to care for
the home.
Third, he should see that she has the
best tools that can be had to tighten
her labor.
Fourth, he should by every possible
means shorten her hours of labor. II
he finds that she is obliged to work
earlier and later than he, then he
should at once give or procure for her
such assistance as will make their
working hours equal.
Fifth, realizing that for her labor she
receives no direct compensation, he
should, at least, be careful to give con-
tinually that reward Of cordial praise,
which costs him nothing and so much
pleases her.
Finally, the man must recognize that
many of the domestic duties are es-
sentially proper to him, and not to the
woman; such are all that require great
physical eXertion. Therefore, not
only should proper implements be gen.
orally furnished for the woman's use,
but all the materials she must use
should be provided and made easily
accessible. Plenty of coal, wood and
kindlings should be kept near the place
where they are to be burned, water
should be supplied so as to be handy
and abundant, plenty of hooks, shelves,
closets, ETC., should be arranged to the
best advantage,
At housekeeping time the man
should move or get moved the heavier
articles of furniture; he should attend
to cleaning and putting down of car.
pets, the setting up of stoves, and the
like; in word, he should assume the
responsibility for all the heavier and
more disagreeable duties connected
with good housekeeping, and be will
ing, on occasion, to take hand in
those which are lighter.
But if he won't do these things which
he ought to do, let him at least have
grace enough to keep out of the WON.
