There Is nothing In the arrangement

ting apart one room for sewing. Let
this room be small or large, IL serves
well it purpose. II the family room Is
used for the general sewing, when
every one Is liable to be rushed with
such work In the fall and spring, and
the family dressmaker and seamstress
are steady members OF the household
it is in n continual litter, or is the
source OF continual care to save it from
being so. In the sewing-room the
machine mey be kept securely locked
up II necessary from children's 3 fingers.
Here may also be kept the convenient
form on which dresses are draped and
hung without the waste OF the strength
and time of some person who is
selected to serve as form" Such a
room should be sunny, but as simply
furnished as possible, except with
useful furniture. A sewing tame, a
tain materials to be made up, patterns
and mending, low, comfortable sew
ing chairs, a dainty, standard work
basket and low screen to be used
when needed in fitting before the
window may be included in necessary
furniture of this room. The floor OF
the sewing-room should be made oi
hard wood, polished or shellaced, but
II this is not attainable, a floor cover
ing of mating or some material from
which threads may be readily brushed
will answer the same purpose.
closet should be connected with this
room, with shelf in which are hooks
where skirts which are finished may
be hung. The chief charm OF the
sewing-room lies In the ability of the
worker to lay down her work in hur-
ried moments at night at any stage,
draw the curtain and lock the door,
and take up the work in the same
place the next day without the care OF
putting it away at night, or taking il
out in the morning. A cabinet OF
simple construction should hang on
the wall to hold small articles, includ-
ing tailors' chalk To mark out darts
and other parts of patterns and other
things. Where a sewing-room is inn
possible, a rug of linen crash under
the machine large enough to hall
cover the room will be great con-
venience. Almost at moments
notice all the threads and scraps may
be gathered up in this rug and shaken
on paper in some convenient place.
Such rug may be purchased by the
yard. Two yards and half will make
sewing rug that will last for years,
and may be washed and ironed when
soiled.-New England Farmer.

Italy, through its minister at Wash
ington, Baron Fava, asked Secretary
of State Blaine for assurances that
the New Orleans lynchers of italian
citizens should be punished and in
demnity paid to their families. Blaine
replied that he could not guarantee
the punishment, as that under the
constitution rests with the jury, but
that he recognized the claim for in
demnity. Baron Fava was thereupon
recalled by his government. Rudini,
the italian premier, has since stated
that the American government had
thus far done all that could be ex-
pected of it.

La''or.union Troubles.

| The labor unions of San Francisco
assert that there is combination OF
employers whose object Is to break up
the unions. The persistent refusal of
the box factories to settle grievances
| is cited as an evidence OF this. ALI
| the more important iron foundries
have been unitedly defying the
Molders' union for over n year and
the calling out of the molders from
the Pacific rolling mills, where all the
steel castings made on the coast were
produced, has resulted in the stoppage
of steel casting.
April $50 of the employees of Buck
ingham & Hecht's shoe factory struck
because the company refused to dis
charge workman named Spofford,
who was running q machine on con-
tract in violation of a rule of the
union. The Federated Trade dele
gates declare that the shoe manufae-
turers have combined, as manufac-
turers in other branches have, and
that a great struggle between capital
and labor has begun.
The employers In the several lines
declare that they do not object to
union men. but refuse to compel en-
ployes who do not wish to do SO to
join the unions. This statement is
confirmed by the statement OF Secre-
tary Sullivan of the Shoemakers'
union that the trouble In the shoe
factory arises from IT, : lat
buckingham & Hecht have tried to
run their factory TO suit themselves.
They deal with the men and refuse to
recognize the union.
An assault was made by 1900 strik-
ing cokeworkers on the works at
Morewood, Pa, early in the morning
of April 2 but the hired guard fired on
them and drove them on, killing seven
men and wounding about forty, sew
eral of whom have since died. Troops
were called out to protect the works
and order was restored. All the men
killed were unnaturalized foreigners.
In fact there are hardly any Amer
leans among the strikers.

The destruction of Iquique, hereto

February 90 the insurgents attacked

Churches were filed with corpses of

husbands and fathers who were fight

The Law of Railroad Crossings.

A decision has been rendered in the
United States supreme court confirm
ing the judgment of the lower court
in New Jersey, in the case of a killing
on d railroad crossing. The court
says: While those using public
highway are under duty to keep
out of the way of railroad cars cross
ing it and to exercise such care as
circumstances make necessary, the
railroad company in moving cars upon
its road is bound to exercise like care
towards those who are obliged to pass
over its tracks. The right of rail-
road company to the use of its tracks
for the movement of engines and cars
is no greater in the eyes of the law
than the right of an individual to
travel over a highway extending
across such tracks.

Once. as Mr.. Lincoln lay upon his
favorite lounge in the Registers Office,
whilst the Register and his messenger
were engaged in their work. and. as he
liked them to do paving no attention
to him, he broke into a magnificent
outburst-a word-painting of what the
South would be when the war was
over. slavery destroyed. and she had
had an opportunity to develop her re-
sources under the beni9nant influence
of peace. Twenty years and more
afterward this scene flashed upon my
memory with the vividness of an cleo
trio light as l recognized the word
picture of Mr.. Lincoln in the following
words of welcome by an eloquent
Southerner to Northern delegation:
You are standing" he said. '.at this
moment in the gateway that leads to
the South. The wealth that is there,
no longer hidden from human eyes,
flashes in your very faces. You can
smell the roses of a new hope that fill
the air. You can hear the heart beats
of progress that come as upon the
wings of heaven. You can reach
forth your hands and almost clutch the
gold that the sun rains down with bis
beams, as he takes his daily Journey
between the coal mine and the cotton
field; the highlands of wood and iron.
of marble and granite; the low-lands
of tobacco. of sugar and rice, of corn
and kline. of wine, milk. and honey"
Such was the picture of the South pre-
sented to the eye of Mr.. Lincoln's
faith.
