eve meet to act, not merely to voice
platitudes," declared President Samuel
Gompers, when discussing the subject.
"Worlingmen must have employment;
in other words it is their natural
right to earn their bread, and any So
cial system under which thousands
must remain idle and hungry, as we
see them to-day, is radically wrong
Hence one of the federation's objects
at the coming convention may be said
to comprise the effecting of a peaceful
social revolution"
1t is in the Chicago common council
chambers that Mr.. Gompers will call
the delegates to order. Acting Mayor
Swift will deliver an address of well
come, and there is some hint of Gov.
Altgeld's presence on the opening day.
The Chicago Trade and Labor assem-
bly, has been preparing its programme
of reception for many days. Such lead
ers as William c. Pomeroy, P. j. Mas,
II. j. Griffin, T. Shannahan, T.. J.
Elderlxin and Arthur Healy will re-
ceive and welcome arriving delegates.
The latter include some of the most
prominent among the men known as
radical laborites. From Philadelphia
comes P. j. McGuire, of the Brother
hood Of Carpenters. Milwaukee sends
the famed 'longshoreman F. B. Weber,
whose work among his colaborers has
made him eminent as social reformer
]. Mahlon Barnes, prominent among
cigarmakers, also attends from Phila-
delphia. There are, in addition, Will
liam Prescott, leader among members
of the Typographical union; Martin
Fox, sent by the iron molders; New
roth, of Denver, and Lennon. of New
York. Never, perhaps, have cham
pions of those theories indiscriminate-
ly designated ''socialistic" been more
numerous or influential in an assem-
blage of this character
Ali these delegates have been chosen,
moreover, on the new basis. That is,
internal and national unions with
less than four thousand members send
only one delegate. If the membership
exceeds four thousand, two dele
gates are allotted; if eight thousand,
three delegates; sixteen thousand,
four, and SO on. Special arrangement
this year permits one delegate each to
local, trade or federal labor unions,
state federations, central labor unions

PRAYER Rugs OF India.

The prayer carpets or rugs sold in
our stores are the product of the leisure
moments of Syrian and Indian women.
In every house there is loom, and
when the woman is not otherwise busy
she sits down at it and does few mo-
ments' work. OF course, she works by
snatches, which explains the story that
some of these rugs were on TIE loom
for twelve or eighteen months, but they
would not have been had she been a BILE
to work continuously. When rug is
done she sells it at once to a travelling
merchant who hands it over to the
city merchant, and in time il finds its
way, at constantly increasing price.

A DRUMMER'S MONUMENT.
How Andre Estienne Won for Napolec
the Battle Of ArcOIa.

How Andre Estienne Won for Napoleon
the Battle of ArcOla.
A recent decision that a monument
shall be erected in the French town OF
Cadenet to Andre Estienne, native OF
the town, who is called "the little
drummer of Arcola," recalls one of the
most heroic episodes in modern history.
1t was an episode which illustrates the
extraordinary military value of the
'spirit-stirring drum" Napoleon
Bonaparte's great career may be said
to have been built upon a drum; for
the battle of Arcola was won by the
beating of Andre Estiennes drum, and
Napoleon always dated his confidence
which he won in 1895, in Italy.
Bonaparte. hemmed in with a small
army at Verona between two greatly
superior forces, sailed out at night,
made forced march, and with four
teen thousand men, fell upon the rear
of fifty thousand Austrians. The bat
tie lasted seventy-two hours On the
second day of the fighting the Aus
trians obtained such position that
they completely and murderously swept
the bridge of Arcola, which the French
had gained and which they must hold
if they expected to win the battle.
1t was an unexpected movement. No
officer was near: but Andre Estienne,
the ''little drummer" was there He
went to his sergeant and told him that
he should cross the bridge with his
drum, and beat it on the other side.
But you will be killed before you
step your foot upon the bridge" said
the sergeant mo man can live there.
But see here: can you swim?'
THAT can,'' said the drummer
Then swim across with your drum y.

The sergeant was equal to the emer-
gency. He was capital swimmer.

way the two men crossed the river,
Andre beating his drum Justify all the
way over.
Once on the other side he pounded it

The Austrians who were massed near

our grandmothers were dignified and

Now that so many more fabrics are
