THE LATEST LABOR UNION.

La HSA LA nOk& UNI HUNG
 The servant-girls of Chicago are going to have all their rights, and they have formed 8 union in order to get them. The union is demanding $4 week for the humblest of it's members. Moreover, special rate of $10 week is to be made during the time of the worlds fair, if the plans of the or ganizers do not fall through.
 This move has, of course, made @ great stir, for the girls are in great demand in Chicago, and the housewives don't care to do their own work if they can get any body to do it for them. The proprietors of employment bureaus are down on the union. One of them said: "Such @ union would never work. You just wait till fall, and you will see that all these girls who are 80 independent now will be only too glad to get work and. a warm home for the winter for $3 8 week or even less. And mark my words, that during the worlds fair here, as it was in Philadelphia in 1876, board and living expenses will be so high that these girls who talk about $10 week will be glad to work for their board and lodging and may be dollar week be- sides" Said another proprietor: "rhe union will fail. Servant girls are already too e1acting and expect too much They are too we'll paid as it is." And still another: of anybody is to start union it should be the people and not the servant girls. The girls are already getting too much. The people have spoiled them, and now they think they are better than the people who hire them"
 The servant girls are not talking, but they will doubtless be heard from. twill be interesting to watch the progress of this organized labor movement. If it lasts perhaps the housewives will feel compelled to form a union to protect themselves.

SOME FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

SOME FOOD FOR THOUGHT. What Insurance Commissioner Merrill
 of Massachusetts has to say concerning ths
 assessment endowment orders is worth the
 attention of all members of those orders
 who still expect to get good deal for C
 very little. Since last July twenty three of these orders in Massachusetts have gone
 to pieces, and are now, by order of the
 court, in the hands of a receiver. No less
 than four others, making altogether just
 one half of the entire list of Massachusetts corporations of this character, are await ing action by which the business can be concluded, and the members receive the pittance of the contributions remaining for their benefit.
 The thirty-three endowment corporations from which reports were received to Jan- uary show deposits of 1,056, ,697 in the State treasury on account of the endow- ment fund These several corporations have already been in existence an average of two years. The length of their paying period averages s years. Thus over one- third of the period in which they are to collect fund sufficient to meet their promises has passed. Their liability upon the certificates outstanding is $49, 734, ,775. Toward liquidating this amount they have in the aggregate s1, ,056,647 deposited in the treasury of the commonwealth. The membership January 1 is reported ss IT, 46S. The certificates vary in amount from s100 to 5000, in only three corporations being less than $500, and averaging $733. Toward paying this s7s3, after the e1pira- tion of one-third of the average paying perion, these corporations have collected and deposited s13.64 for each member.
 This-cannot be called very encouraging showing Thirteen dollars is not large part of $733, and it is difficult to see where the other s720 is coming from. Then, it is to be noted that it has cost the meu- bsrs about $20 per certificate for expenses. The commissioner is fully justified in say ing: "The criticism of the commissioner of insurance during the past four years upon the schemes of this class of corpora tions needs no other or more complete in dorsement than is found in the amount of the expense cost, the paltry assets on hand, and the record of ruin and disaster which has spread over this commonwealth in the shameful failure of the long list of these concerns during the eight months past"
 Perhaps this showing will not deeply affect the members of the orders, but it ought to. There has already been a big loss in these schemes and there is going to be more

NameIeA,

 There is no name, no mark, no sign, To tell who lies below The tall rank grass, where daisies shine And psle primroses bow! Yet mournfully the lindens wave And sunbeams gently play, As if within that nameless grave An exiled monarch lay. No monarch sleeps a whit mora sound In dim cathedral aisles Than this poor heart in earth's green bound Beneath the suns glad smiles Though it may be that alien earth Entombs his lifeles clay, Far from the land that gave him birth, He rests in peace to-day. Did friends around his death bed watch And wait his latest sigh With parted lips as if to catch His ling ring fond goodbye? Or did he die an outcast lone, With none to pray or weep, With none to hear his dying moan Or close his eyes in sleep: Did death come to him as a friend That brings repose and peace, And bliss that ne'er shall know an end, And joy that will not cease: We only know he sleeps below The daisies and the grass, Where, ever tenderly and slow, The lingering sunbeams pass

When Woman really attends to business
 she usually holds her own. It is related
 that New York widow owned @ narrow
 strip of land which the Inman steamship
 company wanted, and of course she asked
 an outrageous price for it. A compromise
 was finally reached. She offered to deed
 the land if the company would in return
 agree to give to her and her two daughters,
 as long as she lived, free passage upon the steamers of the line. As she wss an elderly lady the company agreed to it. This was in 18S9 Ever since then tue lady and her daughters have lived aboard the compsny's steamers, and as they run vessels to nearly all of the principal ports of the world she travels wherever she wishes.
 According to Nikola Tesla, the famous electrician, the new discovery of carbor- undum will largely increase the possibili ties of electric lighting. Among these possibilities he mentions electric lamps operated without any wires at all, an in e1haustible store of electric energy on tap everywhere without need of either genera ton or transmission, and light at least twenty times more efficient than that now furnished. In speaking of Mir. Tesla's ar ticle the Pittsburg Dispatch says: "Fhere are more tangible though somewhat less magnificent results from the actual devel- opment in western Pennsylvania industries of the new material, csrborundum, the qualities of which are enlarged upon in the same connection. A material that in addition to its value for cleo trical lighting has the industrial uses set forth in the article is a valuable addition to our industries. It has been an abstract rather than practical idea in the progress of sci ence for some ages that diamonds might be arti6cially produced. This discovery appears to realize that dream, and even surpasses it so far as the industrial uses of the precious stone are concerned. It marks another step in the triumphant march of scientific industry"

There is still room at the top. Thirteen educational institutions in this country looking for presidents.
 There are no W twenty thousand trained nurses in England, Ireland and Scotland. The largest hospital in London employs 250 and the seven next in size aggregate 1000.
 A good idea. An old maids insurance company has been opened in Denmark. Spinsters can insure themselves by a small sum on reaching the age of IS, and if still unmarried at 40 are entitled to @ regular allowance. If they marry, however, they forfeit all claim.
 Go west, young woman. Denver pa pers have want advertisements by the score calling for domestic help, and dozens | of housewives are doing their own work because they have to. One reason for il is that the mining camps have drawn | many of the servants from Denver by of fers of high wages.
