Can't Work Under Sixteen.

There will be boom i'll the demand
for common labor all over the State
shortly after this week as the result OF
the enforcement of the factory laws regu-
lating the employment of children under
sixteen years of age. Beginning with
September there will be strict enforce
ment of the law by Factory inspector
Campbell, and thousands of boys will be
out of work. The law is companion OF
the new compulsory school law, and
thousands of children under sixteen
wears who have worked in mills, tacto-
ries and shops will have to go to school.
The number of children employed IN the
mills and factories of Pennsylvania Is
not known as their indentity Is not easily
discovered through pay roll, but the ag-
gregate will run away up in the thou
sands. The change will work hardship
in some cases as the children are very
helpful to their parents, but the enforce
ment of the law leaves no discretion to
employers. The wedding out of boys IN
the iron and steel works especially Will
provide for the employment OF many
| laborers

The Slump in Wool.

The present tariff law has practically
destroyed the wool and sheep industry,
and the twenty millions of dollars or
more per annum that should go to our
farmers for wool and sheep, goes to
foreigners. Is there any wisdom in this?
Theodore Justice, the well-known wool
dealer, writing on the subject, says:
The Record and other Democratic pa
pers have been rejoicing in the enormous
increase in our imports of wool and
shoddy. This has been made necessary
by the shortage in the American clip,
which has been brought about by the
slaughter of countless numbers of Ameri-
can sheep by the discouraged wool grow
ers, the price of whose wool during the
two years following Grover Cleveland S
Inauguration declined so per cent. AS
the American people must wear clothing
and as the population is increasing we
need more rather than less wool, and we
are forced to 60 to foreign nations for
our supply, with the effect of increasing
the foreign tide, thus eventually increas-
ing the cost of clothing to the American
people. When our clip is entirely de-
stroyed we shall be compelled to buy
more wool and shoddy of foreign nations,
and the price of clothing will probably
be higher than it was under the McKin-
lev law with the wool growers whose
focks are destroyed without means to
buy. The quantity of wool sheared in
1905 and available for consumption in
1906 or for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1896, is 264, 100000 pounds, as against
364, ,ooo, 900 pounds in 1898.

under way a brick school building of Elk
rooms with all the modern improvements

Tho Result at Harrisburg.

The arduous and stormy struggle TOR
the control of the State convention end
ed in a peaceful conclusion, which was
il. the nature of a compromise. Senator
Quay won his fight for the chairmanshlp
Of the State committee; Governor Hast
;ngs presided over the convention; ms
appointed Judges of the Superior Cour'
were nominated without opposition; and
these successive steps, when once deter
mined and agreed upon, were taken with
a large measure of harmony.
The immediate fruits are apparent.
The threat and what seemed to many
the imminent peril of two conventions
was happily averted. The danger OF an
unfortunate contention over the Judges
and possibly of divided ticket was
obviated. The Republican party pre-
sents a united front in the campaign,
and whatever its family quarrels 1t stands
together against the common foe. AS
has been demonstrated on other occa-
.ions, its representatives, when they di-
rectly face the exigencies OF critical
situation, do not forget the responsible
ties devolving upon them.
The conclusion was not reached with
ont a strenuous and severe conflict. As
the result of that tremendous and earn-
est struggle the victory remained with
Senator Quay. In the end 1t was clear
and unniistakable. Let it be freely and
unreservedly acknowledged. Twenty
four hours before the convention met
Governor Hastings, on distinct pledges
and assurances, had a majority OF the
delegates. But it is the heaviest artll-
lery on the day of battle that counts,
and Senator Quay, with his great re-
sources, succeeded in overturning that
majority and making one OF his own.
The vote of temporary chairman was the
crucial test, and the nominal majority
was thirty. Of this number six were
contestants who had no valid claim, but
who came in under the compromise.
Reducing the analysis to its plainest
terms, Senator Quay had twelve more
than one-half of the convention. 1t was
enough, and when it became clear it set
tied the struggle. Senator Quay has
won in the greatest battle he has ever
fought with the most prodigious effort he
has ever pat forth against the most
formidable opposition he has ever en-
counteved.-Press.

Living Made With The Nose.

There are many trades and professions
in which we'll developed organs of sense are
more or less essential. perfect sight
must be possessed by the engine
driver and signalman; a delicate sense OF
touch chsracterizes the expert typewriter
and pianist; and sensitive palate Is IN
dispensable to the tea faster. But 1t Is
less frequent to lear of lucrative employ
ment being obtained by persons possess
ing an unusually keen sense OF smell.
Nevertheless. the professional "smeller
does exist, and performs very useful func-
tioDs. ANY person visiting the barrel
cleaning department of one of oar large
breweries may find him busy at work,
applying his nose to the b1nghole OF barre
after barrel.
1t is necessary that every barrel before
| being filled shocld be perfectly free from
| the moulds which always make their ap
pearsnce in those returned from the con
| sumer; as even minute quantities OF these
| growths would cause the beer to stout ol
turn sour. The barrels are cleansed BY
| placing a quantity of hot water in them
| together with spiked iron chain; aitel
which they are caused TO rotate in pc
| culiar manner by special machinery, thu
motion shaking the front chain into every
corner After this effectual securing
they are rinsed out and steamed for some
time. to destroy any mouids present; anl
are then passed on to the ''smellers.
These men, VITO have the benefit OF x
perience in addition to their delicate sense
of smell, can immediately detect the pre-
sence of the least quantity of any injur
iOus grOwths that would spoil the liquor
If the barrels are judged by the smeller t
| be perfectly clean. he passes them ON t
the filled; if the reverse, they are returned
| to be re-Steamed.
Hundreds of barrels thus pass throul
the hands and under the nose OF the smel
| Ter 10 a day; a small breathing interval be
tween each one being necessary to pre-
vent the olfactory organs from losfn
their penetratiye power.
OF all positions connected with brew
cry, that of the "smeller' is one Of th
most difficult to fill satisfactorily. As
good man saves a large sum for the brew
er by insuring that no liquor shall z
wrong in the barrels, his wages are justl
higher than those of the other workmer
His nose is indeed his fortune.

Niagara Finally Harnessed.

After almost fve-years of work and the
expenditure of over 100000 Niagara
has finally been harnessed and power
generated by the monster 5,ooo-horse-
power dynamos. The Cataract Con-
struction Company are now sending out
the electricity for commercial use. The
first power was delivered to the Pitts
burg Reduction Company located at Nj
agara Falls. At the Reduction Compa-
ney's works the pots used in the making
of aluminium have been tested and the
real work began on Tuesday.
The power from the power house is
sent over copper cables laid in conduit
to the aluminium works. Everything
was found to work perfectly and great
satisfaction was expressed by the officers.

ANOTHER star, the forty-ffth, is to be
added to the flag. The new star will
represent Utah, and the order for its ad-

by Secretary Lamont on Tuesday. The
st ar will be placed to the right OF the
fourth row from the top. Utah will not
attain Statehood until the fourth day OF
next July, but all the flags hereafter con-
tracted for and issued will contain the
star, heralding the admission of that ter

WHAT an immensity the post-ofhce
business of this country has become? 1t
is stated that the people of the United
States use on an average IL 900, 900 postage
stamps of all kinds each and every day
of the year, or total of about 1850, ,ooo-
600 per annum. Such figures made 1t
almost difficult to grasp the magnitude
of the postal service.
