Two Ingenious Paupers Caught.


Sympathetic spectators gathered one
afternoon around young man who fell
down in front of the Louvre in what ap-
peared to be an epileptic seizure. One
of the bystanders stepped forward and
proposed to carry the invalid to a
chemists shop not far off, and another
offered to assist. The one who spoke
first took up the epileptic's hat, and
throwing sixpence into it said to the
crowd, II am poor man myself, but if
each one Of you did as l do this un-
fortunate creature would have some
thing to help to relieve his sufferings." !"
lmpelled by this generous example the
crowd showered coppers and small silver
into the hat until over ten shillings was
collected. rs
Great was their astonishment when
two constables walked up and seized
both the benevolent originator of the
aims collection and the epileptic suffer
er. The latter, as soon as he opened his
eyes and saw the policeman, forgot that
he was an invalid and attempted to es-
cape. They were both taken to the lock-
up, and were identified as two well
known lazy mendicants, named Garnet
and Desmarets. They had enacted the
same dodge successfully in the Rue Saint
Honore during the forenoon, the epilep-
tic and his colleague on. that occasion
fleeing the charitable to the extent Of
IS. The chemists assistant who re-
ieved the pretended sufferer in the Rue
Saint Honore happened to pass the
Louvre while his second performance
was going on. Suspecting a fraud, he
told the police. Hence their arrest

FOUR MEN KILLED
And city's Water Supply Threat

BROOKLYN, N. Y, November 22.-Four

in diameter. The conduit was being ex-
tended and 100 men were at work in the
vicinity when the accident occurred. Three
Of the men were buried and lost their
lives in the cave-in caused by the explos-
ion. After the work Of repair had begun,
a second caye-in caused the loss OF another
life. The men killed were Italians.
All last night men were searching for
the bodies OF the four laborers. At 20 min
ptes OF three, the first body was recovered.
1t was found Is feet below the surface,
standing In an upright position, both hands
firmly grasping shovel. 1t was identified
as Paul9 Gnndino, an Italian. who leaves a

between the timber and the piling that

When the condition of the brick conduit
has been established, the question Of
whether Brooklyn is to have a water FAM
Inc or not will be known. Early in the
day general alarm was sent out directing
the police to notify every householder and
manufacturer to carefully save water. At
noon the main supplying the central por-
tion OF the city was shut down. A small
supply Is still had from the cross street
pipes. but the pressure In the district Is so
reduced as to cut the water off from every
floor above the first. Everything is being
done to give the city water as soon as pos
sible. This will be accomplished by using
the old conduit from Hampstead ponds to
the pumping station at Ridgewood. At
present the visible supply is not over 30,
100000 gallons. The bursting of the
water main yesterday also broke the gas
main which supplies the Woodhaven su-
burb OF Brooklyn, and tonight that town
Is In darkness.

Opinions Which Favor an Eight
Hour Working Day.
Views Of Messrs. Mckinley, hoar,

what New York Labor Authorities
Have Learned In a Year.

ALBANY, November 22.-1he annual re-
port of Commissioner Peck Of the State Blu
reau Of Statistics of Labor. covers nearly
1900 pages. The report maintains that to
organization alone Is due the material gain
made by labor in the past few years, and
that 1t is the most potent factor for future
reforms and development. The report also
says 1t is gratifying to note the improved
and healthy condition OF organized labor
at the present time. 1t declares that the
toiling masses are today far better off than
they have been before. The report deals
exhaustively with the eight hour day
question. and ASSERTS that the demand for
a general eight hour day for work is the
most vital feature Of reform in labor circles.
The views on this subject Of large num-
Der Of distinguished authorities appear in
the report. These include the folio wing:
Senator w. K. Chandler-"The effect Of
a general reduction of hours of labor to
pendence and citizenship of our people,
would be highly beneficial"
Senator Hoar-.I have for many years
been Of the opinion that, for ordinary
labor, eight hours aday Is enough and that
1t would be public benefit If that should
be the limit of days work In ordinary
manufacturing and mechanical employ
ments."
Senator Edmunds-"I think the matter
SO largely depends upon circumstances
varying with the different conditions Of
locality. climate, the nature of the occupa-
tion. etc., that no general rule can be laid
down upon the subject"
Ex-senator Blaii-"All work which
should be done In this world can easily be
done in eight hours"
GovernOr-elect McKinley-"I belieJo IN
eight hours constituting days WORK:
Governor Hill, Rev. Lyman ABBOTT and
President Seth Low Of Columbia college
are also quoted as in favor OF the eight
Fifty-six pages of the report are taken
up with replies Of labor organizations to
the question, "Do you approve of eight
hours as the standard of a working day ?"
The answer In nearly every instance Is In
the affirmative. The question was asked
also OF large number of labor unions,
ibid the reduction In the number of hours
result In an increase of working forces ?"
ti0ns, in the affirmative.
The influence of machinery and machine
tools on labor forms an important division
of the report. The report states that dur
ing the last official year there were 625S
strikes In ITO trades. OF these, 5566 were
successful, 1859 were compromised, 465 were
unsuccessful, and % are pending. The
number OF persons engaged In strikes was
1884; the number refused work after
strikes was 5049 1.-THE am0 unit lost in wages
was 81, ,389, ,164; the estimated gain in wages
for one year was S3122, 1888 the loss to
employers was S481 ,524.

BLUE TRIUMPHANT.
Twenty Thousand Saw the Yale
Giants Down the harvards.

SPRINGFIELD. Mass, November 2l.-Tne
great foot ball game is over and Yale has
won the day. Fully 10000 people saw the
blue wave victorious on Hampden park to-
day. and when the great contest was over,
1t was the unanimous conviction that the
best team had won. The immense crowd
was accommodated to the entire satistac-
tion of every one and the arrangements
could scarcely have been improved. When
the gates were opened at IL, large crowd
was waiting, and from that time until the
game was called, continuous throng
Isurged through the IA turnstiles at the en-
trance. When the game was called every
one had seat and everything was in readi-
ness. The field was In the best possible
condition.
For two hours the two opposing
sides cheered Justify as each new group
added some well known figure to their
ranks. Precisely at O'Clock Gov. Russell
appeared on the Harvard side and was
greeted with burst of cheers from the
supporters of the crimson.
The story of the game Is simply one of
the supremacy OF Yale over Harvard, and
1t was not difficult to see wherein the GRIM
son lost. The Cambridge eleven was out
played. Harvard's weakest point proved
had feared and Yale's strongest point was
much stronger than the most sanguine had
hoped. The mighty Heffelfnger and
doughty little Bliss were an invincible pair,
and to them chiefly belongs the credit OF
Yale'S victory.
Harvard's rush line was fatally weak
and Of little assistance to her half-backs,
guarding of their backs. The crimson
rush line played as Individual men. while
Yale's line worked like a solid column.
The great Heffel6nger fairly eclipsed his
reputation ma and nc easily proved himself the
was no match for him and powerless to
hinder his effective work. Big Stanley
Morrison was little inferior, and played all
around Dexter. In the centre, Yale's
strength was not appreciably affected by
the absence of Stillman and Sanford
proved himself strong man. Behind the
line McClung proved much the weakest of
the Yale trio, and his work was greatly in
ferior to the game he has played In the two
previous games on Hampden Park. Nc
Cormick showed himself a great ground
gamer and did some telling work, but for
general, all-around work behind the line
Bliss carried off the honors of the day.
Behind the line no word of criticism can
be charged to Harvard's team but, without
any support, they were helpless against
Yale's fine tacklers.
1t was kicking game throughout After
Yale had scored the first touch down in
four minutes. Harvard began to spirit and
continued these tactics during the rest of
the game. In the first half, the ball was in
Harvard's territory most of the time. In
the second half, Harvard forced the play
ing much OF the time, and Trafford twice
had chance to try for goal from the
field but failed both times. In four min
utes after play began Morrison made a
touch down. McClung failed to kick a
