With the approach of warm weather the
subiect of the health of the girls employed
as saleswomcn in the many stores through
out the country comes up atresh. Ihere
are many mercantile firms which are very
considerate in the treatment of their girls,
The atmosphere of the store itself is in no
way unhealthy in any section. Attention
has been gwen to the ventilation and sani-
tary condition of every floor Seats are
provided behind the counters for the girls
use when not employed in waiting on Gus
toners. They are treated kindly, and floor
walkers understand quite well that no
abuse on their part will be tolerated.
Courtesy is shown everywhere and expect
ed in return.
In fact, in Brooklyn there is one store
where the head of the firm tries to know
personally all the employees in his store
that have been there any length of time,
their homes and something of their history
and home life They themselves feel that
he is interested in their welfare and will
ing to add everything in his power for
their comfort and health. New ones com
inc into the store are spoken to pleasantly
and encouraged to feel that If they do well
and deserve advancement or increase of
pay, both will be granted.
Now and then there are stores whose I'M
pure air on entering is very disagreeable,
whose easements are low, dark, stuffy
places, unfit for saleswomen and shoppers,
but these are not the rule. Frequently
too, complaints are made from girls in diff
ferent quarters that they are not expected
to sit down; that, while they know that a
law has been passed that seats shall be pro-
vided for them, though one or two of these
seats can be seen behind the counters, just
enough to cover the law, they know all the
same that the unwritten law of the store
is that they shall not sit down, and they
say they dare not complain for fear Of los
ing their places
This makes the question of seats or no
seats one of the most common with which
the Working Women's Protection union
! has to deal. OF course the enforcement OF
the law passed in 1881 lies with the factory
inspectors, but if girls dare not complain
to them they can do nothing For this
reason girls are urged to join some one OF
the working girls clubs, where they can
gain more accurate information of their
rights and what means to use to gain them

came to the front on the prohibition
question, which had been ignored
IN the platform and resolutions.
All efforts to choke him of with
points of order were Intellectual. A
resolution offered by him was brief
but to the point. 1t said: "Resoly-
ed, that we favor tue abolition of
the liquor traffic." After another
awful uproar the prohibition amend
ment was overwhelmingly defeated
The resolutions were then adopted
with only three dissenting votes.
The resolutions against trusts was
choked of by a point Of order raised
by Schilling, of Wisconsin, that all
resolutions should be referred to the
committee on resolutions without
being read.

TRIAL OF PNEUMATIC GUNS.
FORT MONROE, Va, May 21,-
The Vesuvius has returned from the
first days trial of her pneumatic
guns, everything having worked
smoothly and without accident.
Six shots were fired from the gun
at range of mile and less, three
of them while the vessel was station
airy and three while at full speed
One struck the buli's eye and fell
within the space occupied by an
ordinary vessel. The center of the
three guns was then tested for curve
but the valves being cf different
construction the pressure could moi
be so accurately determined. The
board is satisfied with the result
thus far.

The Directory Fake.

EDITOR JOURNAL: / see the di
rectory fake is being worked on this
town again, and before it goes too
far l wish you could give me a
recipe for keeping my name ont of
this "list of names compiled for the
benefit of Eastern advertisers" l
have been bored by the receipt of
circulars innumerable ever since my
name appeared in the last directory,
advertising all manner of humbugs.
A man who advertises in it is no
doubt much greater victim of these
same schemers than tho he turned
bis address over to the "green goods"
men. Our citizens have asked in
vain that the city council authorize
a revision of it's ordinances 80 that
taxpayers might know what their
city laws are. But it remains for a
Portland printing Office to get the
jobin place Of giving Salem job offices
chance to earn a dollar. These
fakes always take $500 to $1,000 out OF
our city and find plenty of aids to
help them dupe the unsophisticated.
How can we be saved from all these
monsters when you newspaper men
whuop up their enterprises?

One way Of Expressing II.

A curious display OF anti-Italian senti.
ment was seen on Main street. A man OF
dIgnified appearance was passing along,
when an Italian rag collector came by,
bending under heavy bag Of rags. The
man calmly picked a large stone from the
gutter and chugged il at the Italian with a
force which If it had hit the mark would
have cleft hole in the rag picker's skull.
He kept right on his way as if nothing had
happened, looking neither TO the right nor
left, while the bewildtred Italian, no,
knowing who had thrown the stone, turned
and swore eloquently at an innocent boy

KRUPPs' GUNS.

BERLIN, May 2l.-The story that
Krupp is arming, or has agreed to
arm the French navy, has excited
much feeling In Berlin as In Paris.
While Krupp's right to supply
whom he pleases with the products
of his establishment is recognized,
II has been supposed in Germany
that he would draw the line at
France, in view OF the antagonism
between the two nations, and the
certainty Of war; sooner or later.
Krupp also has enjoyed valuable
privileges at the hands Of the Ger
man authorities and Is acquaint, d
with the German artillery system Il
degree that makes him almost q
confidential agent Of the govern
msnt. Much surprise Is expressed
that the French should have any
thing TO do with him, in view OF the
terrible effect Of his siege guns on the
City OF Paris Ia the Franco PTus-
sial war.
