Wages I'm 1900.
Masters History.

Masters History.
The condition of the wage class of
that day may be well examined; it is
full of instruction for social agitators.
In the great cities unskllled wOrkmen
were hired by the day, bought their
own food, and found their own lOdg-
ings. But in the country, on the
farms. or wherever a hand was en-
ployed on some public work, they
were ted and lodged by the employer
and given a few dollars a month. On
Ehe Pennsylvania canals the diggers
ate the COarsest diet, were housed in
the rudest sheds and paid So a month
from May to November, and So a
month from November TO May. ROd
carriers and mortar mixers, diggers
and choppers, who, from 1893 to
1900, labOred on the public buildings
and cut the streets and avenues OF
Washington City, received $40 a year
or if they wished, $50 for all the work
theycOuld perfOrmfrOm March 1 to De-
cember 20. The hours Of work were
invariably from sunrise to sunset.
Wages at Albany and New York were
3 shillings, or, as money then wents
40 cents a day; at Lancaster, So to
$40 q month; elsewhere in Pennsyl-
vania, WOrkmen were content with SO
In summer and So in winter. At Bal
timOre men were glad to be hired at
18 pence a day. None by the month,
asked more than So. At Fredericks-
burg the price of labor was from So to
81. In Virginia, white men employed
by the year were given ZIG currency;
! slaves, when hired, were clothed and
their masters paid FL a month. A
pound of Virginia money was in feder-
! al money So 50. The average rate OF
wages the land over was, therefore,
| S65 a year, with food and, perhaps,
/ lodging. Out of this small sum the
workman must, with his Wife's help,
maintain his family.

Denver Letter 90 Utica Observer.
Atall. fine looking, we'll dressed wom-
an was sitting near the fare-bOx IN
a broadway street-car as Ientered it.
She had a high forehead, dark brown
hair, black eyes and remarkably in
teIligent features. A friend sat beside
her and to him she talked pleasantly.
Her tones were low and her English
was of the purest. She was apparent
ly about forty years Of age, and my
attention was first attracted to her
by the fact that she had Cverpaid her
far6, putting In a dime for q nickel. I
made this even by giving her my fare
instead OF putting it into the box.
As she left the car learned she was 8
woman with a history, and that she
was no other than ex-senator Tabor's
first wife the woman who made his
big strike for him by taking boarders
and keeping the store which supplied
the feed for the prOspectOrs who
struck the Little Pittsburg mine.
This was the woman from whom Ia
Dor got his divorce, and it wa this
woman he left to marry the present
Mrs. Tabor, whom he first welded at
st. Louis, afterward another marriage
ceremony was sOlemnlZed at Washing
ton. She does not look like a disap-
pointed woman, and she is by no
means one Of the frail reeds of the
fair sex. dom think she would have
disgraced her husband at Washington,
and I find that here at Denver her
standing is very good. She is in good
circumstances, the property which
Tabor gave her having largely increas-
ed in value. She is worth at least
$500, 1000 to-day, and she lately sold
sixteen lots out of a piece of forty
which Tabor gave her for 100000. She
has left tWenty-fOur lots and g. house
upon them that cost $4,000, and
she still owns the La Veta property.
This last consists Of fourteen three
story houses. built In the best man
ner, and forming good renting proper
ty,worth about 100000.

A Diamond Woman.
From the Jewelry News.

From the Jewelry News.
The cOstliest necklace of diamonds
ever owned in this country was worn
by Mrs. Mary Jane Morgan. She had
a real passion for diamonds and wore
them in hairpins, brooches, bracelets
and rings as we'll, but her special pet
was a necklace, a riviere Of diamonds,
which cost her originally perhaps $780,
600, and to which she had various
additions until It's total value was
100000. One day she astOnished q
clerk at Tiffany's by buying a diamond
for S48, 900, and ordered it tObe set
in her riviere as the centre stone.
Diamonds that once glistened in her
brooches, hairpins or bracelets were
transferred to this necklace, and dia-
mOnds that no longer pleased her in
the necklace were reset in the brooches,
hairpins or bracelets. To her it was
a perpetual pleasure to see the mag
nificent necklace increasing its mag
nificence. When she died the largest
Of the stones were sold singly, but the
necklace without them was so valu'
able that Messrs Tiffany bought it for
100000. Soon afterWard they
broke it up, and for many months it
has ceased to exist.
