THE STAGE AND THE STABLE.

These Two Things Have Caused Harry
Peters Lots of Trouble.
There was q rather peculiar scene in the
Lee Avenue police court, Brooklyn, the
other day when Lawyer Wern berg rose,
quietly stated that his client, Harry
Peters, was insane. and handed in the Ger
ti6cate Of two physicians TO prove it.
Peters seemed thunders1ruck.
What insaneg" he gasped.
Certainly" said the lawyer and went
on with his argument. Peters Is but nine
teen years old aud IS short s., 377.I3 in his

The cattle market was in an improved
condition today. The receipts were lneral
and contained the usual heavy percentage
of common to medium stuff There were
some range cattle in. among which some
COWS sold pretty well. There was little
more life in the market today and buyers
seemed disposed TO buy. The main strength
in the cattle market here seems TO be cen
tered in the butcher line. Stock steers are
not wanted at any price unless of the ex-
ira quality. On butcher stuff the market
is steady and active.

THE SOL Ull0N OF LABOR DlFFl-
CULTlES.

Cooperation has been said to
be the solution of labor difficulties.
This is the idea of Mr.. Burns,
the active English labor leader
Sympathetic cooperation would.
no doubt, reconcile every difference
between the employed and the
employer. No practical expert
ment in this direction has ever
been disappointing. For instance,
the vice-presidept of the Illinois
Steel Company at Joliet. a year
ago, inspired the organization of
club to be made up of the en-
ployes of that large concern. Re-
Gently the anniversary of that
organization was held, and promi-
nent residents of Chicago were
invited to participate in the en-
tertalnment. Over doZeu million
aires were present, mostly stock
holders, and they sat side by side
with the brawny men of toll and
enjoyed the exercises. The estab-
lishment of mutual confidence
between the officers and employees
of the company has been OF un-
told value to beth, and if this is
maintained such thing as q
strike will be rendered impossl-
BILE. 1t is too often the case that
no effort is made to reconcile Ia
Dor difficulties until the conten'
ton has become so bitter and per.
sonal that all friendly offices are
spurned on both sides. A little
of the spirit of humanity and sym
pathy at the outset would often
settle the most threatening disa
greement between an employee
and his employees.

The readers of the Watchman
will remember the case of the lady
placing the financial savings of
her husband in paper sack with
some oranges, and careles sly
throwing the same away in Forest
Park, about n year ago. James
Gaffney, an industrious and thrift
ty Ilishman, residing at 1904
South Broanway, has had similar
experience of the futility of try
ing to hoard money in secret plac-
es. He had succeeded by indus
try and economy in saving about
$500. besides buying q house,
Last Saturday Mrs. Gaffney
thought she would secrete the
bank roll in safe place, SO she
put it in the ash-pa1 of a heating
stove which had not been in use
for a long time. Sunday afternoon
Mr.. Gatfney thought he would
take nap in the parlor, but

ly savings in the ashpan be lost

deemed by the U. S. Suh-Treas-
