Justice David Davis was once
asked who was the greatest man he
ever knew. The Justice, not unlike
most members of the Supreme Court,
valued highly his own opinion and was
exceedingly careful in delivering it.
In this instance he thought deeply for
a minute and then told his qncstioner
to wait for the answer until they should
meet again. A week passed between
the two meetings. As they sat down
together the second time the Judge
said, impressively: THE greatest man
ever knew was Roger B. fancy"

Chicago Brewers Find No Dificulty in OBJ
tanning Plenty of Workmen.
CHICAGO, April 14-Tho brewers strike is
rapidly fzzling out New men are arriving in
large numbers to take the places of the strikers,
and it Is thought that by tonight all vacancies
that now exist will have been filed. No trouble
aas been experienced with the strikers. and all
sensational accounts of conflicts occur
ring were unfounded. The members
Of the strikers press committee, at Zepfs
Hall, would give reason as to why the En-
glish branch of the union refused to stop work
This refusal on the part of the English speaking
brewers and maltsters was regarded by the
strikers their first indication of weakness,
and created feeling of dependency in their
breasts which could only be dispelled by copious
,iraughts of beer. The English branch OF the
1nion comprises the most conservative mem
oers, who look at matters in an entirely differ
ont light from the radical element
Last night every possible effort
was made to induce the Englsh-speaking work
men to strike. At their meeting committee
from the strikers was present. which presented
argument after argument in favor of the strike
The committee was listened to with attention,
but the result of all the talk was that the men
refused TO lie ave their situations this morning
" hile perhaps the English branch feels as
strongly its German brothers about the So
called grievances its members do not ses their
way clear TO Winning the contest.
