is, as Mr.. Bailey suggested, vacancy

"You have means?"
"Well, yes, enough to keep me for a
month or two"
THAT is good-no experience, eh?"
Exactly"
swell, as it happens, do need help.
OF course you are aware that the privi-
lege of working upon q journal of such
influence as the Labor Times carries
with it weight in considering the
amount of salary"
well, yes; do not expect much to
start on"
II am offering, under such circum-
stances, but twenty-five dollars"
"A week, sir?"
"a week! No, MONTH" roared the
old man, aghast at the extravaganza
ideas of his visitor.
"But that will not pay my board bill.
Chicago is dear place to live in, and
am now giving eight dollars week for
the use of room which has the only
advantage that you can lie in bed and
reach everything in it, together with
badly cooked meals and wretched serv-
ice."
$50 you decline?"
"No. l accept, as the experience
may be valuable to me-"
So Grey was installed in the other di-
lapidated chair as a full-blown editor,
enjoying the distinguished privilege of
"molding the opinions of millions of
readers" as his employer graphically
put it.
Now it CHANGED that at noon the pro-
prietor of the Labor Times announced
his intentions of strolling over to a res
taurant for a lunch--a free lunch, one
of the blessings to the bibulous, for
which Chicago is remarkable-and
Grey found himself in full charge Of
the establishment.
"None will call at this hour" the
great man observed; $50 you might be
looking over our file and get on to the
hang of our line of action"
uthardly was his back turned when
visitor appeared-a frank, we'll

asked. 0
swell, one of them" Grey smiled.
"Then, sir, I've brought an article
I've written. OF course, I've only had
a compensated education, and it isn't
up to much as a literary production,
but think it's got some ideas in it, and
Won might be inclined to publish it,"
1.-THE subject?"
"Well, it is just workingman's no

of the common for mechanic in these
troublesome times, for take 1t that
while trades unions are fine things in
their way, there's such thing as over
doing the laboringmans protection and

"Are you a mechanic?" Grey asked,
wonderingly.

been instilled into their minds by
IDodd's eloquent sophistries, they saw
nothing but foolishness in the fuss she
had made over the trifiing adventure
of the evening. and they were fiercely
indignant at Wilders' treatment of the

twas difficult to conceive. So comical
was his appearance that the corporal,
who possessed strong vein of humor,
could, Notwithstanding his awe for the
sacred parsonage, scarce keep his coun-
tenance.

'sWho done it?" asked the corporal,
though the sly dog knew well enough
before he put the question.
"That son of Belial, Jack Wilders."
''Well, parson, reckon you left your
mark on him?"
''No / am man of deeds, not
blows; and mark me, Mr.. Whitford,
that man shall wash away these stains
with tears of anguish"
Such a diabolical expression shad-
owed Dodd's features as he breathed
this threat, that the corporal shud-
dered; but he could not quite under
stand any condition in which a man
received blow and did not re-
turn it; nd, from that moment, he be-

New Hampshire Cotton Mills Contemplate
Building Mills in the South.

Nashua. N. H.. January lS.-The southern
movement of cotton industries, which has
affectsd Massachusetts. is also felt in New
Hampshire. Tuesday, Representative
Thurber of this city. will introduce bill
into the legislature at Concord, similar to
those introduced in Massachusetts,. in the
interests CT the Lowell mills. Mr.. Thurber' s
bill is in the interest of the Jackson and
Nashua Manufacturing Co. IS OF Nashua, and
will ask that the jackson company be given
the right to increase lis capital stock from
5000 QUO to 81 100000. and the Nashua COM
pany be allowed to increase from $1,000, 900
to So ,OOo.O 600. The bill also asks the right to
build mills in any state in the United
States. These companies have been manu-
facturers CT heavy goods that come fnscom-
petit ion with the southern mills. 1t is un-
derstood that with additional capital that
mills are to be at once built in the South to
manufacture sheeting. etc. The Jackson
manufactures Indian Head standard sheet
ings, which leads the market of the world
as standard. The cost of manufacture in
the South led to the determination to sus-
pend further operation in this line here

duct to fine yarns. These mills arc virtual

Germany II Not Disposed to Stand Any
Bullying.

Berlin, j anuary 13.-The United Press
correspondents has made lepeat4d ineu
les this week as to the possibility of a
tariff war between the United StaUes
and Germany, but he has found every
body in official circles absolutely dun b
on the subject. Two or three weeks
ago the matter was discussed with little
constraint. Freiher Won Hammerstey,
the agrarian leader, was asked what
Germany would do if the United States
took an unfriendly course. He answered,
"We should retaliate by shutting out
American cereals and woods, and should
look up new outlets for our merchandise.
Dou btless, for a time, German indus
tries would suffer, but new markets are
always found when sought. We cannot
submit to bullying, especially when we
have absolute right on our side."
Deputy Aich becLler, vice chairman of
the clerical party, and owner of large
estate in Bavaria, said we don't want
any American grain, anyhow. II the
United States insist upon violating their
treaty with US we shall protect ourselves
by shutting out American cereals. We
have too much Russian and Roumanian
grain now. The German farmer cannot
raise stock and grow wheat with profit
under present circumstances"

CRUSADE AGAINST HEBREWS.
Montreal Papers Suggest that they Must
Not be Given Too Much Latitude.

Montreal, January 12.-A regular crusade
against Hebrews has been undertaken by a
number OF French papers. La. Verite, the
ultramontane organ of Quebec, is the Lead
er, and it is followed by the Courier du
Canada; this also by La Croix du Canada. a
strong clerical paper of Montreal.
La Croix, among other things, in an
article headed ''La Juiverie.' says: Cos

are authorized to do almost anything at the
expense of Christians. In a second article
it says:

The Shaw Case.
Especial to the PRESS.)

Especial To Uu6 IIlEJSC.J
Bangor, January 12.-The Shaw case was
continued in the Supreme court today, and
every seat has been occupied by psople
eager to hear the testimony in the case,
which is one of the most important ever
tried at = civil term here. John r, Mosom,
Esq, opened for the defense and stated
that Shaw would make general denial of
the allegations of Homer.
Mr.. Shaw was the first witness called, and
he occupied the stand most of the day. He
testified that the statements OF Homer were
all false, there had been no agreements be-
tween them, and if any goods had been hid
den. it was done by Homer. He bought
goods of Homer and paid cash for them.
These were sent to his lumber camps. That
was all the business he ever did with
Homer.
Aaron Watson, who has been associated
with Shaw in several schemes. was a most
important witness. SO much in fact. that
Chief Justice Peters took an active part in
cross-examining him. The testimony of
Watson caused considerable excitement. He
said that he hauled sixteen cases of goods
for Shaw to his home. where they were
slowed away. Chief Justice Peters asked
him if he did not believe that some dis
honest act was being performed when he
slowed the goods for Shaw and Watson
answered in the negative. The judge knew
better and manifested it in his looks.
