The Manufacturers Fail to Sign the
Scale of the Men.
PrTTsBURG, PA. Sept. 2.-Saturday was
the last day which the window glass manu-
facturers had for signing the scale, and to-
day was the time set for a general resump-
tion of work in case it was signed. There
was no resumption, however. as only one
firm signed the scale, Chambers 81 Mckee
of Jeannette, and they did not start up be-
cause they have decided to act in harmony
with the other manufacturers. Sincs
the time has passed for the
signing of the scale, the next thing in order
will be the issuing Of an edlct from the
national headquarters declaring a general
strike. This mas been looked for ever since
the last conference between the wage com
mlttees of the two associations, two weeks
ago. when they failed to reach an agree
ment.
OTHER DISTRICTS IN THE SAME BOX.
The wage committees north and east
have done nothing, and the same state of
affairs exists in those districts. How long
the Lockout or strike viii last will depend
much on the state of the trade Window
glass of all sizes and grades is in demand
now, and the probabilities are that the
trouble will soon end. Two factories one in
Vineland, N. j., and the other in Washing
ton, Del, are reported as having started up,
but no report has been received at the win
dow glass workers headquarters as yet.
The bottle blowers are nearly all going to
work. The fints have been at work some
time. Several bottle factories on the South

a Public Spirited Lady Dead.

Mrs. A. NJ. r. S. Knowles, the public
spirited lady who built Moline's Y. M. G.
A. building and whose last appearance in
public was on the occasion of the dedica-
uon of the building, died yesterday at her
home in Moline. The visit to the struc-
ture, the erection of which she made pos
sible, appeared to afford her infinite de,
light. The Dispatch says:
She was glad TO see her vision of
home for young men IN Moline realized in
manner which doubtless far exceeded
the snticipstions she had when she made
her conditional donation of sc. 900 on the
first day of January, DISQUALIFICATION
which later were constantly enlarged up
on as the public responded to the various
calls made by the growing enterprise for
more help. calls which she responded TO
by giving in addition to her original gift
the IS. 900 lot on which the structure is
erected, a farm in Iowa which sold for
Sl.75O. and, at the dedication, 800 to
start the subscription roll of the evening
Mrs. Knowles had BEEN an invalid
from rheumatism for a number of years
For year and half her sole mode of
getting about has been in the invalid
chair. presented to her by the Y. NJ. c.
A, as a slight token of the gratitude of
the members.
The now deceased lady was born at
Limington. Ne, August IL, 1S11-so she
had completed her 18th year last August.
She was married to Dr. Roberts Knowles
in Maine about the year 1892. They
came west to Chicago in 1851 or 1852.
and lived for few years with the family
of Mr.. Small. 1t was in 1855 that they
settled in Moline, and in 1879 DR..
Knowles died. and was buried at Let's,
Iowa. The fruit of the marriage was one
child. daughter. who died in infancy.
Mrs. Knowles added her husbands ini
tials tn her own, and has since been
known as Mrs. r. NJ. r. 5. Knowles.
The funeral occurred in Moline this
afternoon and the interment will be at
Let's. Iowa.
1t is now learned that just prior tn her
death Mrs. Knowles decided her "a, 900

show other requests.

SOME POPULAR PROJECTS
Which the Council Will be Expect.
ed to Act Upon.
The Park com mtsisoners---The PED
dier Ordinance----The sixteen Tn
street and second Avenue Light -
More Paving.

The city council will in all prob
ability at its meeting next Monday
night express itself officially on sev
ersl important projects, not the lie ,st
OF which Is the park commissioner
ordinance, which was defeated at The
last session, but which the aldermanic
body will be petitioned to reconsider its
action upon. 1t is to be hoped that he
city fathers who voted in opposition to
the plan before will feel that they can
consistently reverse their position ind
give the park commissioner scheme at
least trial. Those advocating the orii-
nance feel fully assured that an expert
ment will result so satisfactorily that
there will be no disposition or desire to
depart from 1t as permanent method of
providing for our city parks and public
squares.
The council will be apt to express itself
with reference to restricting the peddler
license as advocated so long by the AR
GUS. In this respect it is the plain and
common duty of the aldermen in con i'd
Grafton of the interests of the establishe
and tax-psyiug merchants. to adopt some
measure that will do away in part at least
with the itinerant classes of tradesmen.
The ARGUS has spoken on numerous
occasions of the great desirabiity, ano the
actual necessity Of an electric light a the
intersection OF Sixteenth street and Sec
ond avenue. The situation is such that
the light from the tower on Sevente NTH
street and Second avenue is obscurel BY
the large buildings intervening. AMI it
being the theatre corner as well as the
street leading directly to the Burlington
depot, it is very essential indeed tina. the
accommodations prayed for be provided.
Ordinances for the extension of the
paving enterprises on various streets are
apt to come up and in all such Instances
1t is unnecessary to solicit favorable action
on the part of the local legislative body.
The ruling spirit there has been shown to
be on the side of public enterprise and in
the furtherance of all such projects. The
guardians of the city believe the besl pro-
lection and advancement OF the city lies
In its improvement as fast and as far as
can consistently be done.

A REMONSTRANCE.
steamboat Men of the Upper MissIs-
sipDi Protest Against the COnfirm
ton of Inspector sloane.

The prominent steam boat men of the
upper Mississippi have prepared a petit
ton which is being freely signed all along
the great river, which reads as follows
and is self-explsnstory
To the Honorable, the Senate of the United
States-the fifty-hrst Congress:
We, the undersigned owners, masters,
pilots and engineers of steam vessels on
the Mississippi, hereby respectfully urge
upon your honorable body not to confirm
the appointment recently made by the
president of J. D. Sloane. as inspectors
of steamboats, of the Fifth district for the
following reasons:
He is generally incompetent as to the
requirements of the position as fully set
forth in Secretary WINDOWS letter of
March 26th last to the Mississippi Valley
Pilots association.
He is retired officer, and drawing paw
from the government as such; which fact
would bar HIM from holding the office
even if he possessed the qualifications.
He was discharged from a position in
charge of pumping stations on the c., B
& Q. railroad for incompetencv, the facts
OF which circumstance can be obtained
from Capt. j. H. Milliren, of Pepin,
Wis.
His confirmation would be a back set
to the anticipated building of steamboats,
in this district.
We would further call your attention
to the protests already sent to the presi>
dent. and ask that they be sent TO the
proper senate committee.

Bows Who Do Not Play.

An Englishman travelling in Germany
writes: German boys never play They
have no games, no sports. Life is to them a
serious business. During a years residence
in a German town-where were university.
a gymnasium, real schulz, peoples schools
and various private schools, and where, hav-
ing two boys of my own in school, had good
opportunity to learn of boys life-I never
saw or heard, with the exception of one game
of hide and seek, single game. Once, in
crossing large court, / saw IA company OF
boys choosing sides for game of ball ]
watched with interest a spectacle so unusual,
wishing to see how German boy would look
when actually engaged in game; but was
disappointed, rs the company soon broke up
in fight. was not surprised, for fighting,
not in anger or hot blood, but easily and nat
urally, is the amusement of the German boy
Not that he is more pugnacious than other
boys; but the military discipline that curbs
him in school and the sight of soldiers when
ever he steps into the street keep constantly
before him the idea and almost the necessity
of fighting. This lack of healthful sport seri-
ously affects the boy, depriving him of much
enjoyment and making him old before he is
mature. Montreal Star

sirable qualities, but its use is in a way waste

the meal requires no less than four hours

who habitually eat ''mush, "stirabout" or
corn pones," cooked in from fifteen to thirty
minutes, may object to this statement, but it
is made upon the authority Of Psychologists

four hours cooking, not minute less, corn
