No Destitution at milwaukee.

MILWAUKEE, Aug 24-That there are a
large number OF men in Milwaukee out Of
work is evident from the groups of idle
men which nouriy line the street corners,
but one can hardly judge how large pro-
portion of the day laborers is idle unless
he visits the outlying wards of the city,
and especially the Eleventh and Four
teenth wards. But that any one Is starv-
ing in Milwaukee or that there is any such
suffering as has been represented, Is ques-
tionable. There is certainly no widespread
poverty.

STATUE OF ZEBULON PIKE.
The Discoverer of CoIorado's Famous
Peak to Be Commemorated
49,, 1.e.-'-7.II,'l 'I''I' : III q u CNu'


General Zebulon NJ. Pike the diseoyerer
of Pixies Peak, is to have a statue. Colonel
J. B. Wheeler, the Colorado millionaire
sculptor, whose "Sheridan's Ride" Gre
ated sensation several years ago, to make
bronze statue OF General Pike.
The statue, which is seven feet high,
will be erected in the public park at Mani
tou Springs, at the base Of Pixies Peak.
1t represents the discoYerer standing on a
natural howlder. with telescope in hand and
rife slung over shoulder and wearing the
costume described by himself in his noun
tain records. The statue is Colonel Wheel
er's gift to the city of Manitou, General
Pike was born in New Jersey He served
with distinction in the revolutionary war
and the war of 1872. He met untimely
death at the age of "a by the explosion of an
English magazine, pending a skirmish with
the BRUSH at ors, Canada. A brave Off
Ger ana daring, yenturesOme explorer, he
was the astronomer, surveyor, commanding
officer, clerk, spy, guide and hunter of the
Government expedition sent out in 1905 and
1906 to explore the Louisiana Territory, then
Spanish possession, and seek the source
OF the Mississippi and other Western rivers
AT 2 o'clock In the afternoon of Noyem-
Der 10, 1906, he discovered a small blue
cloud which, viewed by spy-glass, he per-
ceiyed to be mountain, and half an hour
later the Colorado range was visible, and
his dlsheartened folio oweTs gave three cheers
Despite snow ana fatigue, General Pike,
who knew neither fear nor discouragement,
pushed on fifteen miles until he came to the
base OF the mountain that bears his name
and where the proposed statue will be
erected. General Pike was the first to bring
back TO the East the report of the existence
of gold in the western country.
Despite late historians, who assert that
previous to 1913 there were no evidence of
settlers In Colorado, Mexicans suddenly
suspected gold and made attempts to mine
in the Rocky Mountain range Such. at
least, was General Pixies conviction. Tor
while a prisoner in New Mexico he met an
American, James Pursley of Balrdstown,

TWO CHILDISH STORIES.
Which Show That Youngsters Are
Sometimes Wiser Than Adults.

New York Herald.
Some hard headed poet has cleverly
termed mpn "but children of a larger
growth" The recollection of it brings to
mind couple of good child stories.

and goodness Of God. His blue eyes were

been presented 10 him on Christmas day. II

finally inquired.

Gould he make my watch keep time pc
ms rather h0ored mamma, and while
she was thinking up a wise answer the
little chap broke in:
"Of course don't want him to do it If 1t
Is going TO make him let the stars 90 out
But III tell you what l would do If was in
his place d make all the figures on watches
ana CLOCKS ike these, instead of Ike those
on the clock and on papa's watch, so we
could always tell what time it is''
Ihe hgures on his dummy are Arabic
And why shouldn't they be in the figures OF
ordinary business use instead of in Roman
numerals? The latter ara invariably

rectness, anyhow, the being made inns

quite naturally makes fOur-year-old child
doubt the omniscience and omnipotence of
the Creator.
My other child story Is more humorous.
pat equally instructive. 1t is not original,
having been printed in the newspapers the
other day. So | will tell it briefly.
One day in Tennessee a man killed an
other man. The murderer was arrested
and would have been hanged in the course
OF time. But the brothers Of the murdered
man couldn't wait: They got up big mob
OF several hundred people and attacked the
Jail, with the intention of taking the muir
derer out and killing him. The men, how
ever, whom these same people had elected
and sworn in for the purpose got together
and defended the jail, and incidentally the
prisoner. The result was that some twenty
hYe men were slain, among whom were,
very appropriately. the two brothers who
got up the not unique social entertainment.
Now, if that Isn't a funny story then
never heard one. 1t is enough to kill the
devil with laughing. The reasoning pow
ers OF the four-yeaT-old child are more per-
ieetly developed than in the adult child,

Spanish Libraries.


The managers of the Spanish libraries
have a good deal to learn, it would seem.
before the convenieDces for readers are
what they should be. The National Library
at Madrid is open only for few hours in
the day. and the greater portion of that
time, according to Senor Valdes, is spent in
securing a volume that one does not want.
The ticket is filed uD and presented to an
official; lie reads it carefully aud hands it
to colleague. 1t passes through several
hands. and is then returned to the would-be
reader with suggestion to try the room
opposite. In the second room the process
is repeated; in third room he at length
discovers that the volume asked for Is mot
in the library" A second application in
due course evokes the answer; "The book
you desire is on an upper shelf; 1t would be
rather dangerous to get at IL. If you would
not mind choosing another" choice Is
made at random. and then the bell rings for
the library to close.

The experiment of the eight-hour day. or
rather OF making forty-eight hours weeks
work, is now being tried in one of the
largest iron works In England. the Salford
works at Stafford. which is a suburb of Man
chester. The working hours at these works
have heretofore been ffty-three per week.
aud the reduction is made on an under
standing with the men that the output OF
the works shall not be diminished by this
shortening of the hours. The men are to
be punctual and energetic, and to save the
owners from loss because of this shortening
OF hours, by greater industry. There is to
be no reduction of wages. and II the end of
year finds the experiment successful the
fOrty-eight-hour week will be the permanent
