When work such as sewing Is done BY
the piece, the rate paid depends on The
sample maker. II she is very expert Ii
the point of time her standard Is good fol
the employer, but very hard on the girls
There are Only few in every work room
who can equal the sample maker. The
slower workers are degraded in conse-
quence. although the work done may be
equal in quality. As q rule the sample
maker Is not loved. A conscientious
sample msker, the sewing women say,
will consider the average speed pr ctica-
BILE.
Piece work is one Of the most difficult
matters to adjust in the labor market. 1t
Is conceded that 1t Is greatly In the en-
p.oyer's interest. II Is certain that the
nervous strain produced by 1t tears down
the health of women. A woman con-
fesses to working from in the NOM
ing until midnight, lifting her eyes au1-
iously every little while to the clock. IL
factories the strain of competition car
ried to excess is one of the dangers. Not
withstandipg these admitted evils, the
system is upheld by women workers,
for they always have the possibili-
ty Of earning more than by weekly wages,
whether they Avail themselves Of 1t or
not, and trades unions in England have
made an effort toward establishing
weekly wage based on piece work. One
method OF relieving the strain of piece
work is by limiting the hours Of labor,
forbfddtng night work, and by prohibiting
the slow workers from working for less
than 8 living wage. This can be done
through orga ization, and Of course does
not apply to the idle and incompetent,
who doubtless would and ought to be
discharged.

and by little packing holds ton
Of can ohips. The cells are supported
by brackets near the middle, which rests
on iron joists. Esch Grill is provided
with heater through which the liquid Is

The cells are so copnec,ed by pipes and
valves that the liquid Can be poured into
the cells, snd from Cell to cell st the

Jug neck and near the bottom the sides
are double, the inner plates oeiog per-
forated with small holes to let the water

neighboring sides, and for the same pur-
pose. The cells, OF whose appearance

VILLAGE PROSPERITY.

No town can prosper where factions
are continually watching one another.
each one ready to cut the others throat.
so to speak: and where every enterprise
no matter how commendable, or how
beneficial to the public it may be, is OPP
posed by one or more clicks simply be-
cause the other favors it. Prosperous
towns can never be built in this way
men might as we'll try to lift themselves
over barbed wire fence by pulling at
their boot straps. Men who have
money to invest and who will assist in
building up manufactures and public
enterprises generally give such places
the go-by. What must a business man
who has money to invest think when
he is negotiating with some men of the
town in regard to certain enterprises
and they warn him not to have any
thing to do with another class of men
in the place, and few hours afterwards
some of the latter persons caution him
against those he first met? 1t is hoped
that Brockway Centre will never he
torn up by such factions. Our citizens
should continually rise above all petty
combinations, and work continually
for the prosperity of the village. 1t
should make no difference who origi-
mates or champions a measure, if it is a
good one. 1t is enough for us to know
that the project is reasonable and will
advance the interests of the place, and
every business man should so consider
it and give it his support. This is the
only way prosperous towns can be
built.

Byrnes-But New York is No Place
for Greenhorns Yet.
New York, Feb Among the many
curious characters who live by their wits i'll
a great city none is more interesting to the
outsider or more useful to the novelist
than the blackmailer. To the reader of
sensational literature the ideal blackmailer
is a Partisan who holds some great family
secret which he turns into money at rapidly
narrowing intervals. Although this char
acter is generally overdrawn, no one famil-
lar with city life pretends to doubt his ex-
istence. The blackmailer is a well-known
character in New York. Although within
the past three years the two men most noted
in this field have died, there rem aims a host
of lesser scoundrels who live upon the follies
and fears of their fellow-men. The two Of
whom | have spoken lived in luxury and
left considerable property at their death,
and the sole occupation of their lives from
early manhood was blackmail.
Recently | had an interesting converse
ton on this subject with Detective New
combe, the ex-Post Office Inspector, who,
in the course of his professional experience,
has encountered many masters of the black
mailer's art and is thoroughly conversant
with their methods.

kind once and, to show the temerity of these
hlackmailers, the man who had the matter

demonstrated with me for interfering with
him. Why, said he, there's heaps of money

it so privately that there was no case against

Mr. Newccmbes statement that black
mailing of the ordinary kind is not what it

facts. | remember a case that Capt Will

were three men who used to hang about the
corner of Fifteenth street and Sixth avenue
for the purpose of entrapping people who
visited disreputable places in the vicinity.
Can't. Williams men brought him word of
it and he decided to ''clean out the crowd. y"
So he sent some officers down there and
they simply fell upon the blackmailers and

did not dare to make a complaint and they
avoided the precinct in the future. Alto
