divisions Of the Brotherhood Of Locomotive

the roads which centre here, held a secret
meeting at Tammany Hall today to consider

the Burlington and recommending that il the
trouble is not settled within a reasonable
time that all the Brotherhood men on the
roads connecting with the c., b. & Q. re-
sign March 10. also proposing that II this
does not bring the latter road to terms that
all the members Of the organization through
out the United States, Canada and Mexico
join issue March 80, in demanding that the
rights of the striking c., B. & Q. engineers
and firemen be acknowledged. The resolu-
tions express sincere regret that extreme
measures should be necessary as the busi-
ness interests Of the country must suffer II
the strike spreads, but say the responsibility
of the present trouble must be placed upon
the perniciOus and tyrannieal management
of the c., b. X Q system. 1t Is suggested
that every division in the country hold
meeting to take action and appoint delegates
TO be ready to attend, at short notice, ses-

of this place, but for many years a master of
vessels sailing from Boston to the Indies,
died at Hotel Brunswick, Boston, leaving
property valued at $2,oOo,OOo. About a
quarter Of this amount by will was coming
to relatives in Bowdoinham, and the rest to
relatives in other Maine towns. Just as the
fortunate heirs are about to enjoy their wind
fall another party has appeared on the scene
and demanded slice. This the relatives do
not propose to give without fight, which
will result in first class lawsuit. Captain
MaxwelPs property was mostly in bank and
manufacturing stock. The grounds OF the
suit, 1t is reported, will be that the Captain
belonged to a different branch Of the family

Tasting a Mexican "Pie."

asked of boy who was stufing himself
with what I thought was pie, if. he had
breakfasted well. He did not understand my
Spanish, but with that generosity which
seems born with a Mexican, the little fellow
quickly divided his ''pie" and gave me
goodly Slice Without waiting to see what
the ''pie" was made of, took quite large
bite of it, and the next moment I felt as
though had swallowed a bunch of needles
with the red end of a hot poker. The boy
laughed and rolled on the ground in his
merriment as the tears came to my eyes, and
l tried in vain to gulp down the horrid stuff
he had given me to eat.
And what do you think it was?
Two thin slices of hot cakes, dipped in q
burning sauce made of hot red pepper. I
never again tried to breakfast away from the
American hotel, for soon learned that red
pepper was the chief ingredient of the Mexi-
can diet, and that even the boys and girls

IN HIS EYES.

To careless eyes she is not fair;
This verdict careless lips declare
And wonder why, against the charm
Of be auty, vivid, rich and arm.
The faca they deem so cold and dull,
To him should be SO beautiful.
Are they too dull to see Alright?
Hath he a quicker. keener sight2
Or is it that Indifference
Than love hath clearer. truer sense?
Now is he right or wrong? o, say,
Doth he behold her face or they?
Her eyes into his own eyes shine
With strange illumining; sign
Is o, her brow; palimpsest
To his own gaze alone confessed.
On him, in gravely gracious mood,
She smiles her souls beatitude.
This is the face she turns to him.
u, say not tits lovers whim
That finds it fair; nor are they dull
Who say she is not beautiful.
For. strangest OF all mysteries,
They never see the face he sees
The face no artists skill can linn,
The love-fair face she turns to him.
