TriIby Parties.

Society ladies In some of the east
ern cities are giving Trilhy parties,
the principal features of which
consist Of essays on the leading
points of the book, from Trilby's
enticing foot to Tabby's immaculate
whiskers, not forgetting the song of
Ben Bolt and Chopin's music. The
parlors are arranged to represent
the studio of three English artists,
whose chief aim In life, as repre-
sented by the author, Is beer, pretz.
els, paint and Trilby, who, as a
character in real life, would not be
for an instant countenanced in the
homes of the people who are aping
her peculiarities, even for ali we
know, to setting cross.legged on the
hearth rug. But Trilbv was writ
ten by an Englishman. Had Coop
er, Hawthorne, Irving, or in short,
any American author produced
such work, he wouldn't have had
a shred Of reputation left to him.
The book itself Is not so nausea ting
as the parade which is made over
It by American reviewers and

EMPLOYERS and Employed.


In II recent article on the rela-
tions between labor and capital
Bishop John p. Newman of the
Methodist Episcopal church relat-
ed an instance which he commend
ed to the attention Of employers OF
labor as an example to be followed.
He said he knew firm which,
when business was slack ard the
profits less than the expenses, call
ed their employees together and
said: "Gentlemen, here are our
books; examine them. They indi-
cate that we must discharge a por-
tion of our force or lessen the wages
of all. What shall we do? If you
consent to- the reduction we shall
return to the present prices when
our business will permit" Accord
ing to Bishop Newman the unani-
nous answer was: 1--WE accept the
reduction on these conditions" He
added that within a year the firm
called their employees together and
said: "Gentleman, the profits OF
our trade warrant not only re.
turn to the former wages paid you,
but also to a percentage in the
profits" According to the Bishop
there has never been strike in
that concern, but harmony has al
ways been maintained.
We do not doubt the truth of the
story nor Of the added remark OF
the Bishop that this was only one
of the many firms Of the kind in
country. Weonly wish there were
more such cases of employers and
employed. 1t is not true, as is fire.
quently asserted, that all employers
seek only how to get the most
out of their employers for the least
money. 1t Is no more true than
that all employees endevor to get
the most money for the least work,
without regard to the interests of
their employers. 1t is not necessary
to go outside Of Cleveland to find
establishments that have been run
without a dollar of profit to their
owners, and because they are ad-
mitted where the official investi.
gator or the palronizing "slummer"
would be denied an entrance. For
the distribution Of immediate help
where 1t is most needed they are
the best agencies. Other women
relief organizations would do well
to learn some of their methods, act
with them, and broaden their field
OF philanthropic work by material
aid and personal cooperation.
The severe weather of the past
few weeks has cOused much suffer
ing, which increases daily. Its ex-
traordinary severity for several
days past has stopped all outdoor
work and thrown a large number
OF men out of employment who
were already on the verge of desti-
tuition. There is need for immediate te
help in food, clothing and fuel, and
while the city and The Bethel AS.
sociated Charities will do all they
can to meet the demands upon
them, there Is. necessity for more
direct assistance to the women and
children In'theif poor homes. The
churches, and especially the wom-
en- OF the churches, should cooper.
ate with the Salvation army In
supplying this pressing need. Many
good women of the churches are
already actively at work. More
should be. 1t Is practical Christi
anity of this kind that counts for
most in the eyes Of God, unless all
Christian teaching Ia at fault, u nd
certainly does IN the eyes of men.

To Gov MacCorkle is due the
highest praise for his excellent man
agement of the situation in regard 10
the strike of the miners in the Elk
horn district. A less sbrewd execu-
tive might easily have precipitated
trouble by unwisely sending troops
to the locality when there was no
need for them, and caused the State
a needless expense of thousands of
dollars. AS tits Gov. MacCorkle by
his prudence and wise Intervention
has restored quiet and order and the
trouble will doubtless be settled
without the necessity of show of
force by the Stote. The miners know
that the Governor means we'll by
them, but that he also means busi-
ness, and there is little danger of
further trouble. Wheeling Register.
