A Germantown bachelor of convivial
habits, missing his last train spent the
night with a friend in town and met
with a narrowing experience When
they awoke in the morning, the Ger
mantown man, to use his own express
sion, felt like o fur salesman who had
swallowed his samples. He was still a
tribe under the influence of the rosy,
and his nerves were not in the best pos
sible condition. On the dressing case
was an open pill box containing two
pellets. He was about to ask his friend
what kind of pills they were when one
of them gave q little sQuirm and turned
completely over. The Germantown mar
rubbed his eyes and stared In amaze
ment. Then the other pill slowly began
rolling about the box, and his eyes
threatened + o bulge out of their sockets.
The two pills next began hopping ur
and down, as though trying to escape
from the box. Thoroughly frightened,
the Germantowner gave a yell, and
jumping into bed pulled the clothes
over his head.
Take 'em awayi'' he groaned.
Take what away?'' asked his very
much surprised friend.
Those pills in that box. Have / got
'em, or are they really jumping about?''
".Pills!'' was the laughing reply.
They're not pills. They're q couple Of
those jumping beans ! bonght yesterday
and put in the pill box TO keep. -

ings bank which never breaks, and
t pays large interest to it's deposl-
tors. 1t has been truly said that
real estate is the basis of all
wealth, and he or she who possesses
it, be the quantity ever so small,
has something tangible on which
to RELY in times of adversely, as it
always has a fixed value, which
cannot be said of perishable prop
erty.
The owner of a piece of real es-
tate is the owner of a

or that out of which he or she can
make a home at pleasure, and the
time is not far distant when the
owner of a home win be independ-
emit indeed as well in this country
as it now is i'm foreign countries.
Every person expects to be the
owner Of a home sometime, but
he masses of the people let the
opportunity for securing a home
pass unheeded, and soon prices and
terms of payment are beyond their
reach, and the consequence 10 they
live and die without q home, as
poor when they leave the world as
when they entered it, never having
acquired a portion of the earth as
their own, when a little exercise of
good judgment at the opportune
time, and q small outlay, would.
have secured to them a good home,
and the money which they spend
for rent during their lifetime
could be applied to the comforts
and enjoyment of life, or laid by
for a "rainy day" !
They who arrive at the SHADY
side" of life
WITHOUT A HOME
are indeed to be pitied. Contrast
the condition Of the person who
owns his own home with the one
who rents. Which will you select?
You can have either condition; it
remains for you to decide. The
Wisest and most prosperous people
in this country are purchasing all
the real estate their means will
admit of, and are advising their
friends to do likewise. A very
intelligent and wealthy old gen.
tleman who resides in Illinois, and
who has travelled extensively and
been very observing, wrote us a
few days ago, and in his letter he
said:
Real estate in your section OF
country must very soon be in &C
tive demand at. much advanced
prices, as all of the good, cheap
lands are gone, and your lands
must command prices equal to
those of thestates just east of you,
and your cities, especially such
BUSINESS centers as Madison, must
grow rapidly and city lots advance
in value accordingly. [ look upon
investments in real estate in your
locality as the best that can be
made at this time"
Opinions coming from men OF
this character are IF value and
should be needed.
If the possession of a home were
not within your reach, how earnest
would be your wish that it was,
and how great your anxiety to be
the happy p~ossessor of a piece oil

If YOU have been renting a
house in the city, stop a moment
and think how much You have
paid out in rent, and if you have
been renting long you will soon
figure out that you have paid out
enough for rent TO build as good

your own. Why not put this
money intoa

NO TOLERANCE FOR unions.
The Danbury Hat Manufacturers
Stand Firm Against the Various
Local Organizations Of Labor.

DANBURY, Conn, Jan. THE com.
,mittees from the Hat Makers and Hat
'Finishers unions, who have been
clothed with absolute power, met
committee from the manufacturers
association last night aud held a con-
ference lasting three hours, which was
adjourned till 2 p. IN. Monday. The
Trimmers' union had been ignored by
the labor leaders, and the l, 900 girls
that compose it held an indignation
meeting last night and clamored for
representation on the committee that
is empowered to try to settle matters.
They acted so threateningly that they
were given permission to be repre-
sented. and q committee Of forty girls
will attend to the interests Of the
Trimmsrs' union.
The Coners and Slippers union also
held a meeting last night and chose
committee of forty to go before the
manufacturers. The four committees,
each of which contain forty members,
were at work today on the concessions
that they will grant the manufactur-
ers in order to bring about an adjust
ment of the trouble. They will pre-
sent them tomorrow afternoon and the
manufacturers will give them due
consideration and in reply will tell
the unions what they are willing to do,
The manufacturers will probably ask
for no less than twelve Independent
shops and allow half that number to
be reopened as union establishments
This will be more than the unions can
! grant and there.will he a conflict. The
manufacturers are as determined to
break the ranks of the unions as they
were two months ago when they dis.
charged all their union help and shut
their factories against them.

They Want POLITICAL ACTION.
Philadelphia Trades-Unionists Think
the Only Salvation of Labor Is
Through Independent Politics.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 14-In response
to call by the United Labor league
for mass meeting to take measures
for the amSlioration of the pres ent
condition OF the workingmsu of Phila-
nelphla, large number of delegates
and members Of the various trades
unions assem- bled in the hall at Eighth
and Callowhill streets this fternOon.
A number of speeches were made by
prominent members of various trades
unions.
Although their views as to the causes
Of the present depression and the best
means of improving the workingmen
differed, the general sentiment of all
the speakers was that thorough organ
ization and the formation of an indie
pendent political party was the only
successful means Of attaining the de
sired end. Organization under one
central body was looked upon as the
first and most important step to be
taken, and the following preamble and
resolution was adopted without a dis
senting voice:
Whereas, Tue lack of organization is in
measure the cause Of the present deplor-
able condition OF labor in Philadelphia;
therefore DO it

RUSSELL, Kan,, Jan. 14.-At o'clock
this morning there was n terrible ex-

three men met death at the hands OF
Judge Lynch. No such outbreak OF

Last night they were taken from Jail
and conducted to bridge just outside
of town. The ropes were ready and
one was put around the neck of each OF
the men and tied to the stringers.
This was no time given for
prayers or pleading, but at 6
signal all three were pushed off the
edge and dropped eight or ten feet
with all the precision Of a professional
hanging TO make sure of carrying
out their purpose. the mob fired two
shots into each body, although death
came quickly by the rope.
