THOUSANDS OF STRIKERS.
Electric Street Car Lines Of Brooklyn
Tied Cp-(srievances of the Men.

J Brooklyn, Jan. 14.-All the electric
street railway lines of this city, except
those on Smith and Jay streets, were tied
up by strike, which began this morn
ing. Between 1000 and 5000 men are
out.
The companies expected the men to go
out this morning and determined to an
ticipate them. Thes sasked electricians,
abo ut 1000 in numb sr, so take out the
cars this morning. Every one of them
refused. They were then told that there
was no work for them, The Court street
line of the Brooklyn City company ran
out seven cars, beg inning at 8 o'clock.
The cars were manned in front and rear
by two policemen. The employees in the
power house are organized as Knights of
Labor, the same as the motor men and
conductors, and when the signal is given
to stop work they will fall into line and
not car can be moved
An attempt to overthrow car on the
Court street line by sympathizers with
the strikers was made this morning.
THE POLICE MADE SEVERAL ARRESTS.
The entire police force, 1,7O0 men, is in
readiness in case there ahould be any
trouble.
The mems grievances and demands are
thus stated: The state law provides that
days work of street railway employees
shall be ten hours within twelve con-
secutive hours. 1t is alleged that the cor
porations have required the men to work
eleven hours and even twelve hours with
no interval longer than ten minutes for
lunch and even depriving them of that
brief time in most instances. The wage
rate agreed upon year ago was 50 for a
statutory days work. The companies, it
is alleged, made no allowance for over
time. The men demand adherence to the
law regarding hours or 1925 for day Of
twelve hours.

Water Tight Commandments.

The frequency of collisions at sea and
their fatal results have led to many inves

water tight compartments. 1t is one thing
to build vessel with air chambers that

safety appliances always in order and ready

certain OF our large passenger steamship:
have ON occasions turned the water tight
compartments into places for steerage pas
sengers Their greed ran away with Their
common humanity and regard for thu
lives of those on board. 1t certainly is I;

means of safety at a great expense when

cts from Massachusetts to Florida 1t has
been found as far west as Kentucky, but
as a general thing prefers tho vicinity of
the Atlantic scabcard. 1t is known abroad
as the Hartford fern and the palmate
climbing fern, tho first name apparently
having been acquired from ono of the sta
tions for the plant and the other from the
shape of the pinnp. Americans usually
call it simply the climbing fern.
Although spread through considerable
territory, this is one of our rarcst ferns,
and the student of these plants always
thinks himself fortunate when he finds 1t
in his own locality. In a few restricted
areas where it is tolerably common tho
beauty and oddity of its foliage led to such
frequent use of it for decorative purposes
that the plant seemed on the verge of ex-
termination, and laws were passed in Con-
necticut for its protection. 1t is said that
this is the only plant in the new world SO
honored.
The climbing fern grows from ono to six
feet in height or, rather, length, Chamber

the following dispatch from Lowell, dated
Sept. l.:
1.-The body of Miss Filetta Mcdonald.
whose death in Gardiner, Me-, was men
toned in the Sunday Globe, was brought
to Lowell at midnight, Saturday, from
Gardiner. q
The funeral services, this afternoon,
were conducted in the Edison cemetery
chapel, by Rev. DR.. J. NJ Greene pastor
OF Eliot Congregational church 1t was
intended TO have the services at the home
OF relative on Smith street. but illness
IN the family made it necessary to hold
the exercises in the Edison chapel
Miss Mcdonald was q former resident
of Lowell
&c. X. Thurston, who resides on Smith
avenue, had been acquainted with Miss
flietta Mcdonald about six years, and a
portion Of that time, when in Lowell,
Miss Mcdonald roomed at his house
Speaking of her, tonight, Mr.. Thurston
said:
" When in this city Filetta was en-
ployed as bookkeeper and stenographer
by I'll. y. Shattuck and Amasa Pratt. She
lett Lowell about two years ago for Bid
deford, but l was told she returned to
Boston, last spring, and was employed as
bookkeeper by her brother in law.
When in Lowell Miss Mcdonald was an
attendant at the First Baptist church.
For short time some years ago in Lowell
she was escorted about by young man,
but that did not last long She was a
modest, sensible woman.
- Miss Mcdonald has brother in
Lowell and another in Manchester, N. H.
She has four sisters and they reside in
Chelmsford, Tilton and Nashua,
When she was stopping at our house
on her last visit she went out occasionally,
She said nothing about being in trouble,
but it was noticeable that she was very
sober in her demeanor.

from visit to her sister in Chelmsford,
Aug 81, she went to the Lowell postoificc
and received letter which made her
hasten her departure from Lowell, l have
written to the city marshal of Gardner,

we suspect had anything to do with get
ting Miss Mcdonald into trouble. but sus
picion does point to Roberts, mentioned
in today's Globe.

A woman who made her initial attempt
recently to ride wheel was discouraged
to find that her knees seemed stiff and
very quickly tired of the effort to work the
pedals. Speaking to her physician about
it, he told her she was undoubtedly affect
ed with what Is known as elevator knee. :"
This was hitherto unknown malady to
her, but it has been referred to before in

not uncommon with those whose life in a

with the use of those knee muscles exer
cised in going up and down stairs.-San

Kindness.

1t is kindness that makes life's capabili-
ties blossom and paints them with their
cheering hues and endows them with their
invigorating fragrance. Whether it waits
on its suYeriors or ministers to its inferi-
ors or disports itself with its equals, its
work is marked with prodigality which
the strictest discretion cannot blame.
