OUR FEMALE STRIKERS.
Two Hundred Girls Leave Their
Work and Go Home,

AS was conjectured from the deter
mined stand taken by the girls en-
ployed in the mandatory of Shotwell,
Clerihew & Lothman at their meeting
Tuesday evening, reported in yester-
days GLOBE, strike resulted yester-
day morning. The girls all went to
work as usual, but as soon as they were
informed that the demand to restore
wages to the prices paid prior to Jan. l.,
when reduction of 20 per cent was
made, was refused, all but fifteen left
their machines. and, putting ON their
wraps, left the building, going
quietly to their homes. The number
of girls working on the machines
was 210, and there were about fifty
other operatives who were also obliged
to stop work, and the machinery was
stopped.
There were no new developments
during the day. A. nj. Clerihew, of the
firm, remarked yesterday that it was
the policy of the firm to give its en-
ployes work the year around. if posi-
bic, and in order to avoid laying Off
some of its help the firm had made a
reduction on certain lines which was to
be but temporary. He thought the
prices paid were higher on the average
than paid by similar establishments in
st. Paul and Minneapolis. The talk
about starvation wages" was
all nonsense, as competent girls
can make from 81 to Sl2.
He did not apprehend there would be
any trouble in filling the strikers
places, etc.
This statement is in contradiction to
the girls side of the situation, published
yesterday, which is to the effect that the
majority can only make from So to So a
week at the wages paid, but it indicates
that the firm does not intend TO accede
to the demand made. While the firm
anticipates no trouble in hiring help.
some difficulty may be experienced, as
the girls will probably make strong
effort through labor organizations and
other influences to prevent others
from filling their places until
the former schedule Of wages
is restored as asked. The reference of
Mr.. Woodward to the girls as ''the art
gallery up stairs'' has not acted like oil
upon troubled waters, and good deal
of indignation is expressed. One Of the
girls said yesterday, ''lf we do go back
it will be with the understanding that
the dude clerks shall stop ogling us and
trying to mash us when we 60 to and
from work. We call ourselves respect
able and want to be treated as if we
Were."

south, on condition of his paying into
the city treasury S. per month.
The contract for paving the steel arch
bridge with cedar blocks was awarded
to j. Conney at 70 cents per yard.
The committee ON gas sent in a COM
munication to the effect that the Wheel
er Reflector company discontinue sixty
one lamps at different points, as gas is
now being used at the points where
these lamps are.
At the instance of Chief Stetson an
ordinance was introduced and passed
under suspension of the rules, extend
ing the fire limits so as to include the
territory between Nicollet avenue and
First avenue out as far as Grant street.
When the committee on gas recon-
mended that several hundred gas lamps
and electric lamps be cut out, there
was big howl from various aldermen
whose wards suffered more or less by.
this cut. Several eloquent addresses
were made, in which it was stated that
the lights out in the country were being
run in the interest of few real estate
sharks. The report was adopted by a
vote of 81 to 5.
The committee on license reported a.
license calling upon the owner of every,
team engaged in draying to take out a
license of $40 per year; those hauling by
the day are required to take out IL
cense of $3.50. The license was referred
to the city attorney.
An ordinance providing for the APP
pOintment of an inspector for express
teams, to see that the owners have
taken out licenses, was referred to the
police commission.
Todd's pond was ordered drained &C
cOrding to the plans of the city engineer
and large number of streets were
ordered Sprinkled until the end OF the
season.
The city engineer was ordered to pro-
coed with the construction of sewer on
Twenty-siXth street, from Riverside
avenue to the river, under the plans
now ready.
The Tenth ward was authorized to
borrow 1000 without interest, payable
out of the street fund, for opening Lyn-
dale avenue, from Thirty-third avenue
north to Single Creek.
The committee OH water works was
instructed to investigate and report to
the council the best means of lettering
the water supply of the city.
On the motion of Aid. Lawrence the
committee on accounts was instructed
to employ Mr.. Rogers, an expert book
keeper, to examine the books of the
city treasurer, city comptroller, city
clerk and the clerk Of the municipal
court.
On motion of Aid. Lawrence it was
decided to change the time of meeting
from the first and third Wednesdays of
each month to the first and third Fri
DAYS. as formerly

Fell From the Bridge.

Hiram Longfield, foreman of the con-
struction crew on the steel-arch bridge,
lost his balance while standing ON the
west side pier yesterday at noon and
fell upon the pile of rock at the base of
the abutment. About six inches of
water covered the rocks, which probably
broke his fall so that instead of being
fatally injured he escaped with only a
broken leg. He was taken to his home
at 1921 Nineteenth street south in the
patrol wagon.

Plenty Of Patent MedIelnas.

The good DR.. SangradO immOrtalized
In "Gu Bias, solved, to his own salts
faction, the problem Of treating all the
ills that human flesh is heir to by a
horizontal course Of bleeding and
drenching with hot water. The limited
pharmacOpaeia of that day were too
much for the good doctor, and he pur-
sued his very autocratic treatment con
sOled with the knowledge that the man
born Of woman was but a few days at
the most. That there are not more
Sangrados in this age is remarkable,
because the mastering of the names
and the requirement Of a knowledge Of
the uses Of the SO, 600 drugs and chem
icals that may be found in the price
list OF a large local wholesale drug
house, certainly present most stu
pendous task. 1t IS, however, not Of
the details of the pharmacopoaia that
this article designs to speak, but of the
enormous business that has grown up
within the last half of the century in
She manufacture and sale of what are
known In the trade as proprietary
articles, or more popularity as patent
medicines. The catalogue Of the lead
ing drug house Of this city, printed five
years ago, gives the names and prices
of B. $50 Weli-knOwn and Widely-adver-
tised patent medicines. These are all
goods of established reputation that
sell on their name, can be found in any
frst-class drug store and are as staple
In that line of trade as coffee or sugar
or soap is In the grocery line. The
profit TO the retailer of patent medi-
cines Is very small IN comparison to
that which he makes On prescriptions.
He is obliged to keep the goods in
stock. As we'll might a person under
take to run a dry goods store and not
carry a line Of muslin and calicOs.

was in the 1.-TWO Orphans" saloon
at BagIe Pass City, Wyoming, one day,
engaged in the fatiguing business OF
leaning against the wall and watching
the barkeeper polish the glasses, when
a strikingly large man with a ferocious
black mustache and a hand the size OF
a st. Paul mans snowshoe came in and
directly to where L stood. 1 tried to
look as if I wasn't doing anything. and
got one corner of my eye on the side
door. The man regarded me sco-n-
fully for a moment, then suddenly
jumped up and cracked his heels to-
gether twice, brought his fist down on
the edge of a card-table so that it tipped
over and rolled sway, and with q
whoop that Jared the chandelier,
yelled:
stranger, 1 eat snakes!"
As I remember it, I replied that ]
had no doubt of it. and that fully be-
lieved he was the only man in the coun-
try who did eat snakes, and that I pre-
sumed he rather preferred rattIesnakes
and yellow-headed moccasins, when
he made a leap at me and again
whooped:
Stranger, Pm a wolf! Hear me
how'll"
1 was backing towards the door and
trying tollook as sociabIe and agreeable
as possible, when he added, with as
tonishing emphasis:
"Pm wildcat! want bloodl want
it to drink"
was now moving on the door SC
rapidly as to resemble a dark-colored
streak several yards long, when he
started for me, bowling:
"Tm a man-eater! I'm from Bitter
Creek Gimme some raw snakes
Lemme at himl" All the time kicking
the chairs through the Air and making
the building trembIe.
I managed 60 get through the dool
and fell across an alley and two .vacan,
lots. Fifteen minutes later when
ventured out on another street, 1 hap
pened to meet the barkeeper and said
"What was the matter with that mar
who tried to kill me at your placer"
mayor Everts, you mean, 1 reckon
o, nothing much; only the council
passed an ordinance, that he had vetoed
over his head last night and it Ia
male him cror0 all day. -Chicag,

The Oetrol Museum.

Under the guidance Of our cicerone
we began an inspection Of the curiOsi-
ties about US, and remarked with aston
lshment among them an enormous block
of white marble which must have re-
quired almost superhuman strength to
move, to say nothing of the cost We
turned inquiringly to our guide, who
smiled and asked Us to touch the block
of Carrara with our fingers. We
Obeyed, and imagine our surprise to
ind that the enormous mass weighed
less than a bundle OF feathers: Its
history is as follows: A freight train
arriving one day from Italy, and carry
ing six such squares of marble, a GUS
tOm-hOuse officer remarked an unusual
mdentatIOn in one Of them, and, sus-
pecting that something was wrong, had
the bright idea to break of q corner
with the aid of a hammer, when,
miracle the marble was sheet iron and
hid ., 900 francs worth of Venice lacel
Here in this corner is a pile of logs,
ready, to all appearances, for the fire.
Error. These logs are of metal, cleT-
erIy covered with bark, each end look
ing as If it had been sawed of They
were found filed with cigars.
Farther on rolls of linen; hit them
with your cane, the sharp metallic
sound viii prove that they are simply
cans for alcohol Our guide now drew
our attention to a quantity of dinner
plates, four dozen in each pile, only
the upper and under twelve being in
tact, the remaining twenty-four having
no bottom, and fitted into this long
hole for a zinc can for spirits.
Look at these mill-stones," said our
friend; ''they are tobacco boxes. As to
this pumpkin present from an oc-
trOi in Normandy passed to and
fro every morning for three months
under the noses of the OctrOyens
among other vegetables when its honest
proprietor went to market. Unfortu-
nately the peasant omitted to change
his fraudulent vegetable at the end eff
the pumpkin season, and it was discOy-
cred one day filed with cider brandy.
As our interIocutor spoke we stopped,
much puzzled, before an ordinary
looking coffin, on which was pasted

How CamphOr Is Made.

Camphor is made in Japan in this
way: After a tree is felIed to the earth
it Is cut into chips, which are laid in a
tub or a large iron pot partially filed
with water and placed over slow fire.
Through holes in the bottom Of the
tub steam slowly rises and heating the
chips generates oil and camphOr. OF
course, the tub with the chips has a close
" fitting cover. From this cover a BAN
boo pine leads to a succession Of other
tubs with bamboo connections, and the
last of these tubs is divided into two
compartments, one above the other.
the dividing floor being perforated
with small holes to allow the water and
oil to pass to the lower compartment.
The upper compartment Is supplied
with a straw layer, which catches and
holds the eamphor in crystal in de-
post as it passes to the cooling process.
The camphor is then separated from
the straw, packed In wooden tubs, and
is ready for market. The oil IS used
by the natives for Illuminating and
other purposes.
