An Eskimo Prince in the PIaisance.

The North Pole folk started first to
settle the Midway Plaisance. Labra-
dor gathered together little handful
of her fur-clad families, put them
aboard ship, and sent them over the
cold seas and across thousands of miles
of winter lands to pitch their huts for
the season of the Fair under Chicago
oaks. They launched their sealskin
kayaks" or canoes, upon the lagoons
of the park; ranged their "komitics,"
or sledges. along their banks; penned
their wolfish-looking dogs; tethered
their reindeer; made themselves at
home, and began to enjoy themselves
in true arctic fashion.
Pomiuk, their boy prince, entered
at once upon career of penny-gath-
ering. He was real prince of tribe
with terrible name-Kikkertasoak.
This Eskimo prince did not look
much like the royal children in the
stcry-books, but was stubby, sturdy,
black-haired, and swarthy-skinned
with good deal of red underneath.

BUILDING AND LOAN SOCIETIES.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., May 2-Com-
missioner Of Labor Carroll d. Wright
has submitted his ninth annual re
port dealing with the Building and
Loan associations in the United States.
Vermont which has but one associa-
ton is the only state not included in
the report. The totol number of as
sociations in the country is shown to
be 5,S3S, of which 59S are local and
240 national. The total number of
shareholders is l,745,724, of which
1854 are male The average mum
bier Of shareholders is 30l. The mum
Der of shareholders who are borrow
ers is 1904 OF 26i per cent. There
are l3,255,S12 shares held, of which
10,3ol,03l are in local and the re
mainder in national organizations.
The average number of shares held
per shareholder ISL. The total net
assets are $3.50, 667, 503, of which S4l3,-
GA, 22S are in local organizations. The
net assets per shareholder average
over S257 The average value of shares
Is S34 and the total profits SS0,664, 116
of which S14. 402, 1863 are from the local
organizations. The average amount
of loans is S1,120, with 81, 1913 in local
organizations. The number of homes
acquired through the associations is
29O, 1913 in the local, and 1882 in the
national, making a total of BATS.
The average age of the associations
IL little over SIX years. The figures
show, says the report, that the build
ing and loan associations of the coun-
try are entirely modern institutions
and have reached their great proper
tons within the last zen or fifteen
yeers. This in connection with the
fact that they have net assets of over,
s450,O00,00O have made toal of profits
of more than $4,000, helped to secure
probably over 100000 homes and are
semi banking Institutions conducted
by ordinary men unframed as bankers
show conclusively the strong hold
which building and loan associations
have taken upon the public.

How Tramps Travel.

The Century contains unique artl-
Gle entitled "Tramping with 1ramps,
being a record of the actual adventures
of Young American who disguised
himself as tramp and took 10 the
road. The following is an extract
from the article:
Of the States in the Western district,
| think Illinois. Wisconsin. Minnesota,
Colorado, Washington. and part OF
California are the best for tramps. llll-
nois is thought especially we'll OF by
vagabonds because of its "good" rail-
roads The Illinois Central, for IN
stance, is known the country over as
the best for a journey south, and l
have known tramps to travel from
New York city TO Chicago, and 60
south by this line rather than start
from New York direct for New Or
leans. The &C. B. & O." is also a
great "snap;" in fact, so much so that,
when on the road, it was called 1.-The
buns line" In Nebraska where the
90" becomes the "B. q NJ. t., the
lines are more tightly drawn, and 1t
behooves a roadster to take TO the
trucks if he is anxious to make good
time.
Truck-riding IS necessary almost ev-
erywhere west of the Mississippi. Or
course one can "fool around" freight
trains. but he is liable to be knocked
off when the train is at full speed, and
unless this occurs on the Desert, or
where the ground is rather soft, it
may prove dangerous. l once at
tempted TO ride freight" on the
Southern Pacific road, and it was the
hardest experience | ever encountered,

order to keep out of the brakeman's
way, but he eventually found me, and
ordered me TO get up on top. There
| was made to turn my pockets inside

not give him dime. he said: well,

this train" | told him that would
never hit the gravel unless he stopped

its speed just then,-I really think the
engineer had hand in the matter, for
he is usually good fellow.-and got
off safely enough. Butt had to "drill'
twenty miles that afternoon without a

THURSDAY, MAY 10, 1894.

ScoTTDALE, Pa, May A riot oc
Cured at the Painter works of the
Mcclure Coke company, two miles
from this place at 5 O'Clock this morn
ing, in which one striker was probab
" fatally and two others seriously
wounded. SandfOrd White, assistant
superintendent, and Ewing Roddy,
book keeper, were abrutally beaten,
and Whites injuries may prove fata!
The men have not beenj interfering
with those at work, but the women
were determined to driveathe worke :
out. This morning they marched to
the ovens for the purpose of making
the drawers leave. As they approach
ed it White fired shot at them and
as soon as the men heard the report
they swooped down upon the WORKS
like mad men. White opened fire on
them from his Winchester and befo 'e
they reached him three had fallen In
tnelr tracks. They were picked up
by some Of then companions and
carried back TO the houses, d short
distance from the works.
The battle between the strikers and
deputies at Painter this morning was
a desperate one and at least ten Huns
We're shot. 1t is yet impossible to
learn how many, as the wounded were
carried from the scene to houses of
the strikers. The women led the riot,
followed by 300 men, and when they
reached the works the deputies open
ed fire unfortunately. They were
at close quarters and the shooting was
kept up By the deputies until their
ammunition ran out when they had to
retreat to the tipple. Here they were
oyerpowered and barely escaped with
their lives Sanford White fell from
the blows of Ratchet in the hands
of. Hungarian woman. A burly
Hungarian was about to strike him
with an axe as he lay unconscious on
the ground, when James Farr ap-
peared and knocked the Hungarian
