Tho General Master Workman DC
nounces Combinatious-Laho
Reforms Needed.

Il. V. Powderly, general master work
man of the Knights of Labor of America,
addressed a mass meeting in Dubuque,
Iowa, on Friday night He began by adj
Vocating such AN equality between man
and labor saving machinery that would
insure tho use of such machinery for the
good of the common people. Tic bitterly
denounced the labor agitators who sought
to accomplish by force what could only be
gained by years of patient education.
Eloquently and vigorously he demanded
the abolition OF child labor to the end that
education should take the place OF slavery.
He insisted that women should receive the
same wages as men for equal labor, so long
as there was no discrimination in the
market value of the products.
lie admitted that the knights of Labor
organizations had decreased in numbers
but had gained in influence, and insisted
that 1t should thoroughly abstain from poll
tical affiliations for the reason that when
engaged in political work principles and
measures of reform arc obscured by the
scramble for office.
He threw his lance fun and fair against
monopolistic control in politics. and bold
ly asserted that corporate monopoly to-day
controls all legislation. Ii was useless, he
said, for laboring men to knock at the door
of Congress for reliet. Their only hope
was the ballot box. lie strongly advocated
the Australian sytem of voting and claimed
that in his own state. Pennsylvania, the
alleged secret SySlom of voting was II sham.
Mr.. Powderly then launched ont into a
vigorous denuncation OF the influence of
whisky and beer in politics that made the
saloon keepers and brewers in his audience
move uneasily in their seats. lie then
passed on To the discussion of some of the
evils which oppress workingmon. He adj
Nocated the government control of the rail
ways and the ownership by cities of thoir
street railway lines.
In closing he said he had been called Il
thief in connection with his disposition Of
the funds OF the organization and declared
that II he was II thiefhe was an unrepentant
one, for every dollar had been applied to
feed women and children who had been
reduced to bcggary 10y the niquiuous
strike. At the conclusion of his speech he
was rendered reception by the local as
semblies.

lnimage on the johnstown Calamity.
Rev DR., Talmage, in u letter To the New
York World from Johnstown, says" First
of all when | came here was ! impressed
with the courage and pluck of the sur
yivors of the catastrophe. They will,
with the help of outsiders, rebuild their
city, and in five years II will be more
prosperous place than il ever was. They
are AN honest people, and can get any
amount of commercial credit they ask for.
Many of the citizens temporarily alb
sent will return, and comfortable homes,
large storehouses and great factories will
stand where now are awful ruins, The
stories circulated about the Johnstown
people having lost their faith in God and
given up the Christian religion because OF
this calamity, | denounce as false and
scounirolly. The pastors tell me that there
was not one such ease. ON the contrary,
there is more prayer and Christian dcvu-
ton than ever before. Even iniidols pray
That story published through the land
about the people of Johnstown in disgust
hurNing their Bibles is a hemisphere false
hood The work that has been done here
by their own ministers and physicians and
good men and women and without com
penSation should ho spoken of everywhere.
In applauding the outside workers we
have neglected to appreciate the Johns
town ilOwaTdS and Florence Nightingales
who may he counted 10y the score, though
tneN NNtu hotllns from the wreck except
the clothes on their own persons. Let
all the people, north, south, east and
west and ON both sides of the sea,
understand that III their gifts to the
Hooded districts they did not do too much
or give too quickly, Not per cent. of the
anguish has been told. Such an avalanche
of wretchednoss nevor slipped upon any
american city. Horrors piled on horrors.
Woe augmenling woe. Bankruptcy, or
phanage, widowhOod, ChildloSSneSs, ublit-
Grated homesteads, gorged cemeteries and
scenes so eXcruciating- marvel that
anyone could look upon them and escape
insanity. No fear that sympathy for
Johnstown is ovcrdune. The two and a
half million dollars contributed is small
amount compared with the thirty millions
by this flood demolished"

Bathing in Alaska.

Every Russian trading post, according
10 Mr.. Dali, has u bathhousc, and once
week all the people avail themselves Of
It's privileges. The apparatus is simple,
not to say primitive, but the method is
what might be called heroic, especially
the dressing in room where the tcmpcra-
lure is below zero. \ rude arch of loose
stones is built, and more stones piled over
it, SO that fire made beneath the arch
can penetrate between them.
There is no chimney, but atrap door in
the roof. A large cask full of water,
heated for the purpose, and another Of
cold water, generally with ice floating in
it, and a succession of benches, one above
the other, complete the equipment. When
the stones are thoroughly heated and the
smoke has all passed out, all Goals are re-
moved and the trap door is shut any
smoke or Goals remaining will make the
eyes smart and the bath very uncomfor-
table. Each one leaves his clothing in
an outer room, and on entering vets his
bead and throws hot water on the heated
stones until as much steam is produced as
hc can bear. Then he mounts as high on
the benches as he finds comfortable, and
the perspiration issues from every pore.
Next he takes a sort Of broom or bunch
Of dried mint or birch twigs with the
leaves still on them, which is prepared at
the proper season aud called meenik. With
this he thrashcs himself till all impurities
are thoroughly looscncd from the skin, and
inishcs with wash-oif in hot water and
soap. Then taking kantag, or wooden
dish, full of icc-cold water, he dashcs it
over himself and rushcs out into the dress
ing room.
This last process is disagreeablo to the
uninitiated, but is absolutely necessary to
prevent taking cold. | have known cases
Of acute rheumatism brought on 10y omit
ting it. The dressing room is spread
with straw and always communicates with
the outer air. The temperature is often
many degrees below zero, but such is the
activity of the circulation that one dresses
in perfect comfort Notwithstanding A
warm dressing room would be insuppor-
table.

Tho White IIousc.

The residence of the President OF the
United States, says ToUths Companion,
is officially known rs the Executive Man
sion, which means that it is the residence
of the head of the Executive branch of the
Government; but it is seldom called, in
ordinary talk, either 10y those who live in
it, or by the American people in general,
anything but the White House. This is
u very uupretentious title, and il is inter-
esting to note how the residence OF the
President, in II country which is full of
white houses, came to bear this simple
name as its special property.
The explanation is easily foundl The
first Executive Mansion at Washington
was occupied in 1900. Il was %ailt OF
freestone, and was unpainted; but in
1914 the British army occupied Washing
ton, and burned, with other public build
ings, the Presidents house, leaving it
blackened ruin.
The house was rebuilt on the same site,
and the same walls were used in its CON
struction; but they were so discolorcd by
smoke that, on the suggestion of General
Jackson, they We're painted white, not
only to improve their appearance, but in
token of the successful defiance Of British
fire 10y the American Republic.
The mansion soon became the "White
House in the mouths of the people on
account of its dazzling color, and from
that day to this it has been rcpainted
white every ten years, It's name com
mcmoratcs patriotic feeling, therefore,
rs well rs serves 10 describe the appear
ancc Of the mansion, for the original coat
of white paint was a sort of protest against
the vandalism Of the British, and every
subsequent coat has served to perpetuate
the protest.
The house has not been altogether com.
Portable rs place of residence, and has
required almost constant repairs and al
tcrations. Ii is said to be damp, and
while it may not be positively unhealthy,
it has become customary for the Presi-
dents family to take quarters elsewhere
for the summer.
The White House is the Presidents Of
flee as well as his residence. On the first
floor are several large apartments, includ-
ing the East Room, which is forty by
eighty feet in size and twenty-five feet
high, the Blue Room, the Red Room and
the Green Room.
On the second floor are the Presidents
office-a large room looking 10 the Poto-
mac and the Long Bridge-the rooms of
the Presidents secretaries, and the pri-
vate apartments for the Presidents
family.
1t has occasionally been suggested that
a new and more magnificent residence be
erected for the President, and that the
White House be reserved as an office for
the Executive Department, but Congress
has thus far been disinclined, or too
busy, to adopt the suggestion.

so tagged out with the heavy'work of the
day that went TO sleep almost before |

that he should cruise about for day or

When he told us to go into the pantry
and forage for something to eat his voice

mate was to stand watch the regular time
and then awaken me. Sometime in the
night | was aroused by something and
sat up and looked about rue. Tho
calm continued, and everything was
quiet, and so lay down and slept again.
1t was daylight when awoke again, and

There the story was told aud retold,
but with very little satisfaction to any
