ONE EFFECT OF THE STRIKE.
Conductors and Drivers Find Their
Monthly Stipend Much Lighter Than

CHICAGO, Nov. 2.-The effects of the
strike of the old employees of the North
Chicago Street Railroad company were
clearly demonstrated when the men
came to receive the wages they had
earned since the strike was declared off.
It was pay day, and the conductors and
drivers received little over two-thirds
of the amount they were in the habit of
getting. Complaints were very loud
against their leaders, the men declaring
they had been deceived by them. The
new men which the company hired are
doing excellent work and are growing in
favor with the public.

Mrs. Richard Harris, widow of the
deceased, ordered the monument made
after a design of her own, and placed it
at her husbands grave about two
months after his death.
He was a complete wreck. His wife
would not allow him to come home, and
supported herself and the two children
by sewing. DIR. Chalice furnished him
with food and clothing, and finally.
when ne was taken sick, brought him
to his house, where he died one bitter
winter night, shrieking that the devils

wife was setting theme on. Mrs. Chalice
and her mother agreed that what prop
erty Dick had left should be given to
his widow and children. The widow.

enough to get q monument for him-she
could take care of herself and children.
When she bought and set up the shaft
with the snake and inscription on it, all
Atchison was shocked and Dicks mother
and the Chalices were wild with indig-
nation and shame. Her friends tried to
persuade her to remove it, but she re-
fused to listen to them. There was talk
of legal proceedings To have it taken
away, as being a libel on the dead, but

careful TO bury their dead so far away

upon their graves, and for many years
there was a vacant space for several
yards around it, but gradually this feel

and his grim memorial stone.

they are Industrious and continue to follow
it up, will eventually lead on to fortune.
They arrived at Alton on the train and from
there walked to this place and saved hack
fare. They visited a jeweler here and
looked at "a ring to get married in" but as
ornament of that kind they did not invest be-
cause they could get nothing nice enough for
that price. They took in the town, dined on
crackers and cheese, and returned in the
evening as happy and content, yea more so,

with a history, writes an Atchison cor
respondent to the Chicago Inter-Ocean.
To old residents here, who are ac-

a stranger seldom looks at it without Il

his fortune. She was a tall, ine-look-
ing girl-one of q dozen sitting at a
bench winding magnets. One day, as
Edison was walking doWn the line, that
girl spoke up and babe him good morn
ing without raising her eyes from her
work.
Good morning." said the inventor.
s'How did you know it was I?'
sob, I can always tell when you're
near" was the reply.
"See here,' said the man of inven-
tions, I've noticed you a good deal of
late. Suppose you and ! get married?"
"I'm ready"
"When shall it be?"
"Three weeks from tonight"
"All right!'' and the inventor went
on his rounds, while his intended bride
merrily wound away upon her bobbin OF
wire.
On the wedding day the first con-
| signment of stock indicators came back
from the purchaser, imperative. When
| Mr.. Bachelor. who has always been
Edison's right hand man, went down to
the shop after supper he found the in
ventor there in his dirtiest shop clothes
tinkering away at the machines. Didn't
he remember that it was his wedding
night? No, he'd forgotten all all about
it. Bachelor dragged the tagging
groom to the nearest clothing store, got
him into a new suit, then to the barber
shop, and finally put him on a car and
shipped him off to the house of the
bride. Then he went back to the shop
to work, supposing that was the last OF
Edison for that night. In an hour or two,
however, Edison rushed in again, threw
his coat down on a greasy lathe. hung
his waistcoat upon a gaspipe, kicked his
shoes under IL bench, seized "a file and
went ut the defective stock indicator as
if there was no such thing as marriage
and giving in marriage, and there he
stayed with his faithful lieutenant till
the morning sun looked in on two weary
toilers and an electrical stock indicator
that worked like a charm.
When wealth came to thcm, Mrs.
Edison No. l betrayed a tendency to
branch out into the social world, but it
had no effect on the inventors habits.
One of the largest entertainments New
ark even saw was given at her
house. All the leading men Of the
Edison works were there, but he was no.
where to be seen. His subordinates
grew a little uneasy. A committee of
them went over to his laboratory about
midnight and there was the inventor,
tipped back in n rickety old chair, in
his shirt sleeves, his shoeless feet high
up on the workbench, singing away
into his monograph at the top of his
voice, happy as a clam at high tide.
The patient Mrs. Edison sticks to he T.
husband like a shadow. She is always
at his elbows in working hours, with a
and experiments. She is, in fact, "A
helpmate in every way worthy of his
