CONDITIONS.

The physician will not make visits outside
the city limits. This ticket is mot transferable,
and does not apply to the family of the en-
ploye, and must be return ed as soon, as the
term OF EN- poyment ceases. This privilege IS
q free gift Of the company and is no part of
the contract for wages. and may be made void
by the company, at its own option, without
notice.
This is a practical illustration of Mr..
Douglas idea, and will surely Ee appre-
ciated by the hundreds who receive the
cards.
He says that he believes there are hun
dreds of WOrkingmen and WorkingWome
who find doctors bill great burden after
q period of enforced idleness, and that il
this is lifted from them they must feel that
their employer is in terested in them in
some other way than simply to get all the
work he can for just as little money as he
can. He says also that there are men and
women who keep right at work when it
would be better for their health if they
would lay off a day or two and have med
ical attendance. Then again they will now
feel free to consult the doctor when they
have slight troubles, wh ich heretofore they
would not do because of the cost.
The plan goes into effect today DR. S. J.
Gruver has been engaged as the physician
and enters upon his duties tomorrow.
The plan is a good one.
Speaking of the W. l.. Douglas Shoe Co.
it may be said that their factory is the only
one in the city where the principle of arbi-
tration is recognized and has full sway.
Mr. Douglas is a firm believer in the prin-
ciple and has been sin Ce the establishment

TO AID EMPLOYEES.
A New Scheme of the w. L. ouglas Shoe

A New Scheme of the w. L. q ouglas Shoe
Gown Furnish Their Help with Med
icai Attendance.
William l.. Douglas, the president of the
world famed W. l.. Douglas Shoe Co., has
always had great personal interest in the
army of men and women who lnhablt the
great factory at Montello during the work
ing hours of the day, and who make the
greatly advertised So shoe.
He is a great believer in the idea that
manufacturers should have this personal
interest in the condition of their employees,
and feels that if the idea is carried out to
the extent that is possible, that it will result
ultimately in the breaking down Of the bar
riers which have been built up between en-
ployers and those whom they employ. He
believes that the breaking down of these in
visible but strong barriers would be a great
thing for everybody concerned, as it would
convince the workingmen that their en-
ployerS were not their nemies, as some of
them seem to think now, but their friends,
with desire to do all for them that was in
their power.
Having strong feelings upon this point, it
is only natural that Mr.. Douglas should give
the matter some study and acquaint him.
self with the result of the trials of such
plans in other places. He is satisfied that
the scheme he has orig mated IS a good one,
and he has now put it to practical test.
To-day he handed to every person in his
employ-and they form a small army-a
card, a fac-simile of which is here given:
This ticket entitles------

ployed by the w. l.. Douglas Shoe Company.

If said employe should be detained at home

The Eject On the Cruiser Atlanta
After Tacklfng q Dereltct.


After Tacklfng . Dereltct.
Capt Bartlett. commanding the cruiser
Atlanta, has made a report to the Navy
Department contradicting the statement
published In many papers that the vessel
was seriously injured by destroying the
derelict Golden Rule by the rammins pro-
cess. He says he reserted to that process,
instead Of using torpedoes. after mature re-
Election ard that he has since had no cause
to regret his action. According TO his re-
port the wreck was reasonably high out OF
water and was only lightly freighted. and
he was confident that there would be but
sli>at resistance TO the ram.
Accordingly the Atlanta was started
ahead slowly and struck the derelict amid
ships while going at the rate Of 1--WE or SIX
knots. AS the point of the Atanta's ram
is below water about twelve feet. and the
upward inclination of her bow from that
point is at a considerable angle the wreck
was lifted or pushed up on the cruisers
over into the sea- The only damage done TO
the cruiser by the contact was the scraping
of of all the paint on her bows. Having
completed the ramming the Atlanta was
backed for a short distance. and an officer
was sent TO the wreck TO note the effect OF
the attack. Pending his return one of the
engineers made an examination CT the en-
gines Ii was found that a small but Inn
portant pin had fallen out OF place, and
that a new one would have to be refitted.
But under no circumstances. Capt Bartlett
says. could the pin have been Jared out by
the ramming.

partment for Those Vessels.
The bureau chiefs of the Navy Depart
ment are making good progress in the work
of preparing the plans for the three new
torpedo boats. authority for the construc-
ton of which is contained In the naval ap-
preparation bill for the present fiscal year.
The general design OF the vessels has been
determined upon and the specifications viii
be prepared within the next two weeks.
The vessels viii have q general resem-
blance TO the Ericsson. which is to be tried
In Long Island Sound in a few weeks. They
Will have about ten tons more displacement,
however, or about 100 tons In ALL
The first intention was TO make the boats
considerably larger, so that they might
rival in speed the English flyer Hornet and
her class. but the small appropriation
available made the adoption of less ambi-
tiCus plans necessary. Steel will be en-
ployed I'm the construction of the hulls.
There will be no armor, except on the con-
ring towers which will have plates Of about
five ihqnes IN thickness a protection
against \ light rapid-fire guns and small
arms. Twin screws propelled by two sepa-
rat engines. Will drive the new boats, and
as their boiler power will be slightly greater
than that of the Ericsson. a speed of
twenty-five knots an hour is counted on.
Ii b expected that the department will be
prepared 10 invite proposals for the con-
struction OF these vessels by the middle OF
September. and the prediction is made that
they will be completed and ready for active
sea service by November 1st&5.
